The rogue consul was Sir Roger Casement, a decorated diplomat who turned his back on the British empire and instead joined the rising Irish cause at the turn of the 20th century. At the book’s centre is the manhunt for Casement led by intelligence officer Reginald ‘Blinker’ Hall, the legendary British spy chief who pioneered codebreaking, early mass surveillance and media manipulation.

But she was also surrounded by abject poverty and chaos, and after becoming pregnant and homeless at 15, she spent five years barely surviving. Today, Katriona is an award-winning academic whose work explores barriers to education for girls like her. In Poor by Katriona O'Sullivan, she shares what set her on this unexpected path: the mentors and supporters who truly saw her. Teachers who showed her how to wash in the school toilets or visited her home to convince her to sit at least one GCSE exam. A community worker who encouraged her to apply for training schemes. A friend who introduced her to Trinity College’s access program while she was a cleaner. Simple acts that helped her turn her life around. Told with warmth, clarity, and compassion—for her parents, her younger self, and others—Poor is both a powerful personal testimony and an impassioned plea for the future of our children.

by Andy Weir

€9.49

Ideal for readers who: Love science fiction driven by ingenuity, survival and high-stakes discovery Enjoy lone-mission stories that become unexpectedly emotional Are drawn to books balancing hard science with humour and heart Want a page-turning space novel with one huge central problem Project Hail Mary opens with Ryland Grace waking up alone aboard a spacecraft, with no clear memory of who he is or why he is there. Andy Weir uses that disorientation to pull readers into a mission of enormous scale, where scientific thinking is not background detail but the engine of the story itself. The novel combines technical curiosity, suspense and an unusually generous sense of wonder. It is an excellent choice for readers who want space fiction that feels clever, accessible and emotionally involving rather than coldly procedural.
