50th ANNIVERSARY EDITION - now a Virago Modern Classic with a new introduction by Alexandra Harris 'Full of dignity, courage and humour, and as fresh and insightful as the day it was written, FENWOMEN is a vital portrait of rural women's lives - not only as they were lived in the 1970s in one Cambridgeshire village, but in the generations before it, all over the country, and reaching forward into today's world, too' MELISSA HARRISON Mary Coe recalls summers spent gleaning in the fields, laudanum-soothed babies strapped to their mothers' backs. Ann Sharman, married and pregnant at seventeen, imagines another life outside the village. Eighty-six-year-old Sybil Hayhoe looks back with pride at her years in service, while the village postwoman is sharply aware of her unequal wages. Girls aspire to be housewives, hairdressers or nurses - except Fiona, who dreams of training horses. Told through the voices of ordinary women, Mary Chamberlain's portrait of an isolated village in the Cambridgeshire Fens remains as vital and thought-provoking as on its groundbreaking publication in 1975. A feminist answer to Ronald Blythe's Akenfield, it vividly captures the rhythms, hopes and tensions of women's lives in a working-class rural community, and offers a unique snapshot of an almost-vanished England.

The great filmmaker Werner Herzog, in his first novel, tells the incredible story of Hiroo Onoda, a Japanese soldier who defended a small island in the Philippines for twenty-nine years after the end of World War II. In 1997, Werner Herzog was in Tokyo to direct an opera. His hosts asked him, Whom would you like to meet? He replied instantly: Hiroo Onoda. Onoda was a former soldier famous for having quixotically defended an island in the Philippines for decades after World War II, unaware the fighting was over. Herzog and Onoda developed an instant rapport and met many times, talking and unraveling the story of Onodas long war.At the end of 1944 on Lubang Island, with Japanese troops about to withdraw, Onoda stayed behind under orders from his superior officer. For years, Onoda continued to fight his fictitious warat first with other soldiers, and then, finally, alone, a character in a novel of his own making.In The Twilight World, Herzog immortalizes and imagines Onodas years of absurd yet epic struggle in an inimitable, hypnotic stylepart documentary, part poem, and part dreamthat will be instantly recognizable to fans of his films. The result is a novel completely unto itself: a glowing, dancing meditation on the purpose and meaning we give our lives. The national bestseller by the great filmmaker Werner Herzog. In his first novel, Herzog tells the incredible story of Hiroo Onoda, a Japanese soldier who defended a small island in the Philippines for twenty-nine years after the end of World War II.In 1997, Werner Herzog was in Tokyo to direct an opera. His hosts asked him, Whom would you like to meet? He replied instantly: Hiroo Onoda. Onoda was a former solider famous for having quixotically defended an island in the Philippines for decades after World War II, unaware the fighting was over. Herzog and Onoda developed an instant rapport and would meet many times, talking for hours and together unraveling the story of Onodas long war. At the end of 1944, on Lubang Island in the Philippines, with Japanese troops about to withdraw, Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda was given orders by his superior officer: Hold the island until the Imperial armys return. You are to defend its territory by guerrilla tactics, at all costs. . . . There is only one rule. You are forbidden to die by your own hand. In the event of your capture by the enemy, you are to give them all the misleading information you can. So began Onodas long campaign, during which he became fluent in the hidden language of the jungle. Soon weeks turned into months, months into years, and years into decadesuntil eventually time itself seemed to melt away. All the while Onoda continued to fight his fictitious war, at once surreal and tragic, at first with other soldiers, and then, finally, alone, a character in a novel of his own making. In The Twilight World, Herzog immortalizes and imagines Onodas years of absurd yet epic struggle in an inimitable, hypnotic stylepart documentary, part poem, and part dreamthat will be instantly recognizable to fans of his films. The result is a novel completely unto itself, a sort of modern-day Robinson Crusoe tale: a glowing, dancing meditation on the purpose and meaning we give our lives.

* Chosen by Stylist as one of the best memoirs of 2026 * An addictive, tell-all memoir about what happens when you try to make your dreams come true - as well as a love letter to Korea 'Brings to life a country as complex and vibrant as its many gochujang-laced dishes. A delicious reminder that we can find "home" in the most unexpected landscapes, people, and flavors' KIM SUNÉE, author of Everyday Korean and A Mouthful of Stars Aged twenty-one, fuelled by a love of K-dramas and a need to find herself, Alice Amelia moves to Seoul. She knows no one in her adopted country, doesn't speak the language, and hasn't tried kimchi, let alone grilled cow intestines or Korean corn dogs. But she soon realises that real-life Seoul isn't the romanticised city she'd watched on television - and it doesn't have subtitles. Determined to follow her dream, Alice becomes everything she wasn't in England: adding spicy gochujang sauce to every meal, dancing in K-pop videos, dating famous models, and even injecting salmon sperm into her eye bags. But as she breaks into the Korean entertainment industry which she idolised from afar, and finds a group of new friends as well as a chance at love, her life spirals in ways she never could have imagined. Wanting to stay true to herself, she wonders, will she ever belong in Korea? And what price will it cost her to stay? 'Shocking, hilarious, and swooningly romantic, Alice Amelia's memoir reads like one of the best rom-coms - and yet it all actually happened. It's also a love letter to Korean food, culture, men and women. By the time I reached the final page, I was ready to book a flight' EMILY CHAPPELL, author of Where There's A Will Autorid: Alice Amelia

Her name is Gita, and in that first encounter, Lale vows to somehow survive the camp and marry her.A vivid, harrowing, and ultimately hopeful re-creation of Lale Sokolov’s experiences as the man who tattooed the arms of thousands of prisoners with what would become one of the most potent symbols of the Holocaust, The Tattooist of Auschwitz is also a testament to the endurance of love and humanity under the darkest possible conditions.

'Few people have a better understanding of how endangered free speech has become in these islands than Ben Jones. This urgent cry for its restoration is a must read' Toby Young 'To call Island of Strangers "unflinching" is to understate its tenacity and courage. It is forthright - territorial - yet it maintains a distinctive English politeness that will force its critics to address its argument: this is no polemic, but it is an unmistakable act of defiance.' The Critic BRITAIN IS BEING TRANSFORMED. IT IS UNFREE. AND IT IS GETTING WORSE. As mass migration reshapes Britain's population, an increasingly authoritarian state attempts to manage the resulting hyper-diversity by suppressing freedom of speech. We see this in two-tier policing, in attempts to criminalise blasphemy against Islam, and even in the private sector where thousands have lost their jobs or have been punished for expressing their beliefs. In Island of Strangers, Ben Jones - a director of the Free Speech Union - shows how multiculturalism came just as Britain was losing its sense of itself, as Christianity declined, and how its elite embraced a creed of 'diversityism'. Grounded in a long view of Britain's history, this book gets to the fundamental causes of why Keir Starmer's UK feels so unfree. The free speech crisis isn't just a passing problem. Silencing dissent is now built into how the fractured UK is governed. Different identity groups are increasingly locked in competition to protect their sacred ideas. The most potent challenge to Britain's tradition of free speech comes from within Islam. This book is unafraid to grapple with these truths. Increasingly it seems impossible even to define who 'we' are, much less what we believe or what unites us. Do we really have more in common than that which divides us? Increasingly it feels like we don't. Taking Keir Starmer's infamous line, this book argues that Britain has been transformed into 'an island of strangers'. Autorid: Ben Jones
Many learners often lose their interest in learning the Hebrew language after just a few hours of study, as courses usually require a fairly good command of the script relatively quickly. Since when learning a new language, in addition to foreign vocabulary and grammar, unknown letters must also be learned, even many academic learners are quickly overwhelmed and discouraged. By resorting to common words and names, it is now just as quick and easy to get used to reading and writing Hebrew without any additional burdens and to quickly achieve noticeable learning successes. The practical introduction to the Hebrew script can be used as a prerequisite as well as to accompany existing textbooks as a simple and effective aid to enable quick access to terrain that is not so completely foreign.
'Brave as F*ck!' Amber Heard 'Frighteningly accurate, robustly researched and courageously original' Eve Barlow, Owner of Blacklisted 'Dr Jessica Taylor is the voice every woman needs to hear. Her incredible courage in tackling the uncomfortable truths that continue to harm women around the world is helping to change the conversation in a profound way! If you've ever felt silenced, dismissed, manipulated or made to question your own instincts, Dr Jessica's work is absolutely essential! She empowers women to find their voice, trust themselves and refuse to be silenced' Lisa Bilyeu What happens when thousands of strangers decide you deserve to be destroyed? How do strangers become obsessed with someone they barely know? What happens when your stalker can destroy your life from the comfort of their own sofa? For years, Dr Jessica Taylor was stalked - not by a lone figure lurking outside her home, but by groups of people online. They watched her. They monitored her life. They spread rumours, stole her identity, analysed her posts, contacted everyone she had ever known and coordinated attacks designed to ruin her life. To end her life. And they believed that they were justified. Like all stalkers do. In Click. Stalk. Destroy., Taylor takes readers inside the disturbing psychology of online stalking. Combining her professional research with real-life examples and her own experience, she unravels the psychology of this disturbing behaviour as well as the radically changing landscape of stalking, including the prevalence of female online stalkers and 'she was asking for it' narratives. Revealing how the internet and social media has fostered new conditions for stalking, this is an exposition of today's hidden world of psychological warfare and digital surveillance.
