In this groundbreaking book, bestselling author and psychotherapist Owen O'Kane explores how we all unwittingly build habits around our anxiety. This, he argues, is how we become addicted - the behaviours and thought patterns that help us feel safe in the short term ultimately serve to perpetuate it. Put simply, we get hooked. The answer? Break the cycle. How? Recognize: You must understand your anxiety and identify your triggers before you can start to unpick it. Tackle: Discover vital techniques for breaking the underlying habits and patterns. Move forward: Learn strategies for navigating setbacks or relapses on the road ahead. Addicted to Anxiety will help you understand your anxiety from the perspective of addiction, identifying your triggers and learning how to break your habits so you can actively replace them with new, more productive behaviours for a calmer, happier life. -- MORE PRAISE FOR ADDICTED TO ANXIETY 'Generous, wise and very persuasive' Observer Magazine 'Friendly, reassuring, and confidently expert' i News 'A really important read for anyone wanting to live more comfortably with their anxious self.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER MORE THAN 3.5 MILLION COPIES SOLD! A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor-including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother-and how she retook control of her life. Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother's dream was for her only daughter to become a star, whatever it took, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what her mother called "calorie restriction", weighing herself five times a day and ultimately shrinking down to 89 pounds. She endured extensive at-home makeovers using knockoff whitening strips, hot curlers, eyelash tint, and gobs of bleach to enhance her "natural beauty." She was showered by her mother until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, an email account, and all her earnings. The dream finally comes true when Jennette is cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly and is thrust into fame. But for Jennette, the dream is a nightmare. Practically overnight, her fake smile and cheesy airbrushed hair-do is plastered on billboards across the country. And though her mom is ecstatic, ordering her to smile for the paparazzi (with whom she's on a first-name basis) and sign endless autographs for fans who only know her by her character's name, Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction and a series of unhealthy relationships.These issues only get worse when Jennette's mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and coldly examining the relationship with her mother, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants. Told with raw honesty and equal parts gravity and humor, I'm Glad My Mom Died is a a shocking, devastating, and ultimately inspiring story of resilience.

'If there is a more iconic character in modern fiction than Jack Reacher, I'd like to meet them.' - Daily Mirror The 2025 Jack Reacher thriller. Jack Reacher will make three stops today - not all of them planned. First: a Baltimore coffee shop - corner seat facing the door, black coffee, two refills. A minor interruption, handled the Reacher way. As he leaves, a young guy bumps into him. Instinctively, Reacher checks his pocket. No problem - nothing missing. Second: a store to buy a coat - nothing fancy, something he can ditch when he heads to warmer climes, large enough to fit a man the size of a bank vault. Pulling out his cash, he finds something new in his pocket - a handwritten note, a desperate plea for help. Third: wherever this bend in the road takes him. Impressed by the technique and intrigued by the message, Reacher makes it his mission to find out more. Praise for Jack Reacher: 'There's only one Jack Reacher. Accept no substitutes.' - Mick Herron 'It's no wonder Jack Reacher is everyone's favourite rebel hero.' - Karin Slaughter 'These books are absolutely addictive. When you pick them up you can't put them down.' - George R. R. Martin Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, Exit Strategy is the 30th book in the internationally bestselling series.

There was a time when DJ Carey didn’t need a surname. The star player of a Kilkenny hurling team that dominated the sport for a decade, he had a rare, natural talent that led his county to five All Ireland titles and won him nine All Stars. DJ wasn’t just a hero on the pitch - his easy charm, generosity, and readiness to meet young fans made him a national treasure. Throughout his meteoric rise, strange rumours followed him. In 2003, shocking claims that DJ was dying of cancer swept the country. Who would spread such a story about one of Ireland’s most beloved sporting legends? And what could possibly be gained from it? Two decades later, the truth emerged. DJ Carey was arrested and charged with deception and forgery - accused of faking cancer to con money from those who trusted him most. For years, he had been telling the same lie to generous supporters who believed they were funding life-saving treatment in the U.S. In this riveting exposé, Eimear Ní Bhraonáin uncovers the extraordinary fall from grace of a national icon, and how he betrayed the fans that once loved him.

I started writing this book as an exclusively work memoir, but the work and the personal kept overlapping. I don’t know if that’s because I’m a woman or a mother or both — or none of those reasons. I just know that for my story to be authentic and truthful, I couldn’t simply focus on the work side of my life. Miriam O'Callaghan is one of Ireland's best-known broadcasters, covering every election, referendum, major controversy, and important public event for TV, while also hosting an award-winning radio show. Combining career success, high-octane glamour, and motherhood to eight children makes her a truly unique figure in Irish public life. In her absorbing memoir, Miriam shares touching stories from her personal life — from the life-changing impact of losing her beloved sister and father in a matter of months, and the end of her first marriage that same year, to the joys and challenges of bringing eight children into the world and juggling a frenetically busy life (“give up on perfection” is her wise advice!). Miriam includes fascinating insights into a career that has given her a ringside seat to a changing Ireland. Like attending Bobby Sands’ wake even before she was a journalist, and life coming full circle when she championed John Hume to be declared the greatest figure in Irish history. She describes extraordinary debates, important and heart-breaking conversations with people in the eye of a media storm, and how she prepares for and conducts the big interviews — as well as what happens when things go wrong. Miriam also addresses the recent RTÉ controversies that cast a shadow over its high-profile presenters, not least herself.

‘Baldacci is the master’ – Jeffrey Archer The start of a pulse-pounding original series from international number one bestselling author David Baldacci. Walter Nash is a mild-mannered, happy and successful businessman with a loving family. He has never lifted a weight or fired a gun in anger, and he has no special physical or investigatory skills. The dark world is not a place he knows – until the FBI comes calling on the very day of his estranged Vietnam veteran father’s funeral. They tell him that the company he works for is actually a criminal organisation. And they need his help in a risky endeavour to bring it all down. In doing so, Nash’s perfect world is destroyed. And in seeking justice and revenge, Nash must become someone else: a man of violence and physicality who must find traction and purpose in the same dark world that invaded and crushed everything near and dear to him. Can Walter Nash reinvent himself into a weapon of righteousness and justice? The odds are not with him. But bet against Walter Nash at your peril . . .

THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Welcome to the family," Nina Winchester says as I shake her elegant, manicured hand. I smile politely, gazing around the marble hallway. Working here is my last chance to start fresh. I can pretend to be whoever I like. But I'll soon learn that the Winchesters' secrets are far more dangerous than my own... Every day I clean the Winchesters' beautiful house top to bottom. I collect their daughter from school. And I cook a delicious meal for the whole family before heading up to eat alone in my tiny room on the top floor. I try to ignore how Nina makes a mess just to watch me clean it up. How she tells strange lies about her own daughter. And how her husband Andrew seems more broken every day. But as I look into Andrew's handsome brown eyes, so full of pain, it's hard not to imagine what it would be like to live Nina's life. The walk-in closet, the fancy car, the perfect husband. I only try on one of Nina's pristine white dresses once. Just to see what it's like. But she soon finds out... and by the time I realize my attic bedroom door only locks from the outside, it's far too late. But I reassure myself: the Winchesters don't know who I really am.

We Did OK, Kid is an honest, moving and long-awaited memoir in which Academy Award-winning actor Sir Anthony Hopkins delves into his illustrious film and theatre career, difficult childhood, and path to sobriety. Born and raised in Port Talbot, a small Welsh steelworks town amid war and depression, Sir Anthony grew up among men who rejected emotional vulnerability in favour of alcoholism and brutality. A struggling student, he was seen by peers, parents, and teachers as a failure with no future. Then, on a fateful Saturday night, the 1948 adaptation of Hamlet sparked a passion for acting that set him on an unexpected path. With candour and a voice that is both arresting and vulnerable, Sir Anthony recounts career milestones and offers a rare look into the craft behind his most iconic roles. His performance as Iago earns him admission to RADA and mentorship under Laurence Olivier. He meets Richard Burton first as a boy in his art teacher’s flat, and later backstage before a performance of Equus as an established actor meeting his hero. His portrayal of Hannibal Lecter draws on Bela Lugosi’s eerie presence in Dracula and the razor-sharp precision instilled by his acting teacher, while the stoicism of his father and grandfather informs his unforgettable King Lear . The memoir also confronts the lowest points of his personal life. Addiction cost him his first marriage, his relationship with his only child, and nearly his life. That brink propelled him toward sobriety, a commitment he has maintained for nearly half a century. He reflects on a lifelong pull toward solitude and the fear of connection, and on questions of mortality as he approaches what his father called “The Big Secret”. Featuring a special collection of personal photographs throughout, We Did OK, Kid is a raw and passionate account from a complex, iconic man who has inspired audiences for over sixty years.

In 2017, Tina Satchwell vanished from her quiet Cork home. Her husband Richard claimed that she had taken their savings and left of her own accord. But as time passed and questions mounted, suspicion grew. Why did her husband wait four days before reporting her missing? And would Tina have left behind her wallet, her phone and, most importantly, her beloved pets? Here, with chilling detail and exclusive insights, journalists Ralph Riegel and Paul Byrne peel back the layers of a case that has gripped Ireland for over six years. From how Tina and Richard met just days after she moved to the UK as a vulnerable seventeen-year-old, to the search of the house that would lead to Richard Satchwell’s downfall, Beneath the Stairs traces the cold-blooded deception of a man, bent on control, who lied to hide the truth while living above his wife’s hidden grave. But amid the darkness, a picture emerges of a kind and outgoing woman, cherished by a family who never gave up hope that, one day, they would get justice for themselves — and for their beloved Tina.

Dear Gay was an instant bestseller when it was published in 2023. PS Gay brings readers more letters and memories from the listeners of Ireland's most iconic radio show. PS Gay reflects the very fabric of our society from the lighter watercooler moments that had us all talking, to personal stories that stopped us in our tracks. Remember the uproar over Dick's affair in Glenroe and the nationwide protest about the decision by Switzer's department store to remove the Christmas gnomes from the window. There are accounts of the devastating impact of the AIDS crisis, the divorce referendum and heartbreaking experiences of abortion. Most importantly, there are the stories of the lives of everyday superwomen who wrote into the show to share their experiences, Gay Byrne acting as ringmaster skilfully capturing what mattered to them. Nostalgic for times that seemed simpler than they are today, and a reminder of how far we have come.

A shocking tale' i 'Extraordinary, a shocking list of wrongdoing. *****' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'An amazing book…Fascinating' PIERS MORGAN 'A STORY WE WERE NEVER SUPPOSED TO READ' PATRICK JEPHSON, PRIVATE SECRETARY TO PRINCESS DIANA 'AN IMPORTANT AND FORENSIC EXAMINATION' CHARLES SPENCER 'After 20 years investigating Princess Diana's 1995 Panorama interview with Martin Bashir… the extent of his duplicity, as well as the BBC's failings afterwards, is laid bare in this fine book' SUN 'I spent two straight days gripped by Dianarama...It is reasonable to assume that Diana might be alive today had she known then what was revealed a quarter century later' Sally Bedell Smith, New York Times bestselling author of Elizabeth the Queen -- The death of Princess Diana in August 1997 was one of the most shocking events in recent history. Many events surrounding the tragedy have been shrouded in mystery, in particular the BBC Panorama interview Diana gave to journalist Martin Bashir less than two years before she died. However, the true extent of the deception the princess experienced as well as the cover-up which ensued has never before been revealed - until now.Dianarama is the story of one of the biggest scandals in public life and broadcasting history and of the cover-up that followed to hide what happened, leaving the damaged princess to her fate. Andy Webb is the writer and award-winning filmmaker who obtained the secret files that first broke the story of Princess Diana's betrayal. Here he offers unrivalled insider access to the key players in the drama in a thrilling first-hand narrative, putting the reader inside the room where each key decision was taken. The story takes us from the moment BBC reporter Martin Bashir first contrived his dossier of forged bank statements in 1995 to the 2024 courtroom where Webb faced the BBC's elite legal squad to demand the release of 10,000 pages of highly contested documents relating to the scandal. A story for the ages, the fate of Princess Diana will be debated by scholars and gossips centuries from now. This book, filled with revelations which have not yet entered the public record, will become a key part in the first draft of history. 'Sensational. A vigorous and heavily researched read. As entertaining and energetic as a thriller. Webb juggles multiple revelations and unearthed seminal documents. In his meticulous and readable style and with his newly uncovered items, it is a shocking tale' i 'Anyone who cares for honest reporting and the health of the BBC should read Dianarama. On one level it's the definitive account of the BBC's disastrous Martin Bashir saga and its consequences, by the man who exposed it all. It's also a gripping tale of deceit, cover ups and that very British habit of punishing the whistleblower while promoting time-serving hacks!' Daily Express, Books of the Year

A Poetry Book Society Recommendation John F. Deane's new book follows the publication of his career-spanning New and Selected Poems, which was published on the occasion of his eightieth birthday in 2023 and shows no relaxation in his descriptive and lyric powers. Ireland's foremost living religious poet, the new book includes a sequence, 'Of Human Flesh', which takes Easter's rituals as its occasion, and dwells on its continuing purchase and meaning as the poet remembers others and walks a landscape where, sometimes, as he puts it, the spiritual and material worlds come together: 'all here fits together, oxbow and pillow-stone, holon and fractal, stunning, admonishing, this morphogenic field.' The poems bear witness to a number of different Irelands, and one memorable sequence tracks a family heirloom, a carriage clock, through three different marriages in 1897, 1906 and 1940. Alive to what is comical and even enchanting, his steadfast faith is as well captured in his grip on a childhood memory of Jonah, his 'Bunnacurry mule, big and raw, / stubborn in hardship and unwilling', with whom he is partnered in what the poem calls a 'slow, uncomely, cosmic dance'.

Dick Van Dyke danced his way into our hearts with iconic roles in Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and The Dick Van Dyke Show. Now, as he's about to turn 100 years old, Dick is still dancing, still approaching life with the twinkle in his eye that we've come to know and love. In 100 RULES FOR LIVING TO 100, he reveals his secrets for maintaining your joie de vivre, staying physically healthy, and making the most out of the life you've been given. Through stories from his past and present-the pivotal moments from childhood to film sets to his expansive family and finding love late in life-Dick reflects on both the joyful times and the challenges that shaped him. His indefatigable spirit and positive attitude will surely inspire readers to count the blessings in their own lives, persevere through the hard times, and appreciate the beauty and complexity of being human. PRAISE FOR KEEP MOVING "Dick Van Dyke has been in our collective consciousness a very long time, from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Mary Poppins, to Diagnosis: Murder and The Dick Van Dyke Show. What's the secret to staying young? The popular movie and television stars [says] it's about attitude and staying active and has a new book to prove it." - NPR Weekend Edition "Song-and-dance man Van Dyke relishes his approaching 90th birthday and shares some tips for readers on reaching and enjoying that venerable age. This is determinedly upbeat stuff." - Kirkus "Multitalented [Dick Van Dyke] shares his vast store of knowledge in a memoir that offers tips and truths about [how to] make living an achievement." - The Sacramento Bee PRAISE FOR MY LUCKY LIFE IN AND OUT OF SHOW BUSINESS "In my opinion, 'Luck' has little to do with Dick Van Dyke's life. It is, rather, his innate kindness and talent that have had an extraordinary effect in shaping the man. And what a fascinating self-portrait he's given us in this book." - Mary Tyler Moore "Van Dyke tells a wonderful story about himself and his times. And-in an often surprisingly relevant manner-our times. We've always liked the performer-it's hard not to like Dick Van Dyke-but this will will make you admire him." - Playbill

The Race offers an exhilarating, behind-the-scenes look at the cut-throat world of elite athletics. With vivid recall, David Gillick, one of Ireland’s most celebrated 400m sprinters, describes the sacrifices, triumphs and devastating setbacks that define a life spent chasing greatness. From the punishing grind of training camps to the mental anguish of injuries and the darker side of athletics, this memoir captures the intensity of a career defined by fractions of a second. As an Irish athlete competing against the odds, Gillick recalls the unique challenges of representing a small nation: limited resources, enormous expectations and the constant push to prove you belong among the world’s best. But The Race is more than a story of sport. It’s an exploration of human resilience and the fight to find balance in a life consumed by the pursuit of perfection. It’s about enduring heartbreak, overcoming burnout and discovering who you are when the race is over.

'Tinniswood has created a tome of architectural brilliance, uncomfortable historical truths, and a complicated legacy of power and philanthropy.' - The Irish Times Step inside the historic homes of the Guinness family and enter a world of power, privilege and palatial living.   The Guinnesses became famous as brewers, philanthropists and socialites, but they also created some of the most distinctive homes in Britain and Ireland, where they lived, loved and entertained in high style.   Royalty was a frequent visitor to Ashford Castle and Elveden Hall. At Luggala Oonagh Guinness welcomed rock stars, actors and artists. At Biddesden Bryan Guinness lived the life of an urbane country squire, while at Kelvedon his cousin Honor left her husband Chips Channon to play the country gentleman while she ran off with her land agent. The family's Dublin mansions - Farmleigh, St Anne's and 80 St Stephen's Green - were a byword for grandeur and opulence. And the Guinnesses spent a fortune buying two spectacular country houses, Kenwood and Castletown, not to live in, but simply to save them from destruction and to give them away.   Adrian Tinniswood, the bestselling historian of the country house, opens the door to castles and mansions that once belonged to the greatest brewing dynasty the world has ever seen. 'Tinniswood … [is] an erudite historian of country-house life in all its anecdote-worthy vagaries.' - Financial Times 'We are in the company of a confident and skilled historian who understands the mores of his era and wears his learning lightly…' - Virginia Nicholson, The Times 'Few authors can combine serious social history with the sometimes sad and often hilarious narratives of country-house life in the way that Tinniswood can.' - Jeremy Musson

As the captain of Blackcastle Football Club and one of the highest-paid athletes in the game, Vincent DuBois should be on top of the world. But when his fame brings danger to his doorstep, he finds himself in a nightmare scenario—secretly sharing a flat with his coach’s daughter, knowing full well she’s far too tempting to resist. When their new living arrangement turns into a bet that draws them even closer, Vincent realizes he’s in deeper trouble than he ever imagined. He’s always played to win—but for her, he might just risk it all. As a sports nutritionist and the daughter of a legendary coach, Brooklyn Armstrong is used to dealing with hotshot athletes. However, no player gets under her skin like Vincent—her best friend’s infuriatingly cocky (and undeniably gorgeous) brother. She left California hoping for a fresh start, and he’s exactly the kind of distraction she doesn’t need. Now, he’s sleeping in the room next to hers while her career is in flux and her defenses are crumbling.

Sorcha O'Donovan dreams of an exciting life beyond the West Cork coastline where she has grown up. When she encounters the town's strikingly handsome outcast, struggling musician Con Daly, her days will never be the same. When Con strikes gold with rock band The Fishermen in London, he and Sorcha look set for a rosy future. But their lives change beyond recognition as the dark side of fame rears its head. Death threats follow Con around, and devastating secrets from the past threaten to destroy everything he has worked for. Twenty years later, The Fishermen agree to re-form for the massive Music for Life charity concert at Wembley Stadium. But Con Daly, heartthrob and spokesman for a generation, has been missing for over a decade. There's only one person who can find out what happened, who has access to the lives, loves and careers of all concerned as The Fishermen rose to worldwide fame. Only one person who knows how vital it is to uncover the truth, because should Con Daly reappear before the facts emerge, then history could repeat itself with even more tragic consequences.

But Joe was often mistrusted by managers and out of step with the style of English football in the 2000s. The game was suspicious of creative footballers it considered luxury players - the kind it could regard as an indulgence. With honesty and an eye for the absurdities of football, Joe takes us inside the dressing room to reveal it all. From his days at the FA's School of Excellence at Lilleshall and rising through the ranks as a teenage prodigy at West Ham, to signing for Roman Abramovich's Chelsea and winning it all under José Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti, before being discarded by his boyhood club after a remarkable 7-year spell. He offers an insider account of a fascinating era in modern football, playing alongside the likes of Lampard and Drogba, Beckham and Rooney, Gerrard and Di Canio. He talks about his experiences playing for England's so-called Golden Generation, his extraordinary goal against Sweden at the 2006 World Cup, and the reality of being managed by Sven-Göran Eriksson and Fabio Capello. It was a remarkable career. Then came the tumultuous end, as Joe battled severe injuries and his family suffered loss. He takes us on the journey of a great player coming to terms with his waning powers as his body began to fail him and the sport moved on. Football had given him everything. But then, it was over.

‘Lyra, what will you do when you find this place in the desert, the opening to the world of the roses?’ ‘Defend it,’ Lyra said. ‘Die defending it.’ When readers left Lyra in The Secret Commonwealth , she was alone in the ruins of a deserted city. Pantalaimon had run from her — part of herself — in search of her imagination, which he believed she had lost. Lyra travelled across the world from her Oxford home in search of her dæmon. And Malcolm, loyal Malcolm, journeyed far from home too, towards the Silk Roads in search of Lyra... In The Rose Field , their quests converge in the most dangerous, breathtaking, and world-changing ways. They must seek help from spies and thieves, gryphons and witches, old friends and new, learning all the while the deep and surprising truths of the alethiometer. All around them, the world is aflame — made terrifying by fear, power, and greed. As they move East, towards the red building that will reunite them and give them answers — on Dust, on the special roses, on imagination — so too does the Magisterium, at war against all that Lyra holds dear. Marking thirty years since the world was first introduced to Pullman’s remarkable heroine Lyra Belacqua in Northern Lights , The Rose Field is the culmination of the cultural phenomenon of The Book of Dust and His Dark Materials .

Obama's intimate and candid stories illuminate how her approach to dressing has evolved throughout her life - from the colourful sheath dresses, cardigans, and brooches she wore during her time as First Lady to the bold suits, denim, and braids of her post-White House life and all the active looks and beautiful gowns in between. In The Look, Michelle Obama explores the joy and the purpose of fashion and beauty and how - when wielded with grace and care - they can uplift and affirm the values one holds most dear. Confidence, she concludes, cannot be put on. But when you're wearing something that's intentional or beloved, clothing can make you feel like the best version of yourself.

€34.99

A Financial Times Book of the Year A landmark account of Paul McCartney's triumphant musical reinvention in the 1970s and the rise of one of the decade's most iconic bands. This is the story, in their own words, of a band that came to define a generation. Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run tells the madcap history of Paul McCartney and his newly formed band, from their humble beginnings in the early 1970s to their dissolution barely a decade later. Drawn from over 500,000 words of interviews with McCartney, family and band members, and other key participants, with a cast of characters including John Lennon, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Chrissie Hynde, Mick Jagger and more, Wings recounts the musical odyssey taken by a man searching for his identity in the aftermath of The Beatles' breakup. Soon joined by his wife, American photographer Linda McCartney, on keyboard and vocals, drummer Denny Seiwell and guitarist Denny Laine, McCartney sowed the seeds for a new band that would provide the soundtrack to the decade. Organised chronologically around McCartney , RAM and nine Wings albums, the narrative begins when a twenty-seven-year-old superstar, rumoured to be dead, fled with his new wife to a remote sheep farm in Scotland amid a sea of legal and personal rows. Being there gave McCartney time to create and was where this new band emerged. Wings then follows the group as they play unannounced shows at university halls, tour in a sheared-off double-decker bus with their children, survive a robbery on the streets of Nigeria, and eventually perform blockbuster stadium shows on their world tour, all while producing some of the most enduring music of the time. With extraordinary recollections collected by Oscar-winning director Morgan Neville and edited into a genre-defining oral history by Ted Widmer, Wings transports the reader to the grit and glamour of the 1970s. Introduced with a heartfelt foreword by McCartney, Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run contains 150 black-and-white and colour photographs, many previously unseen, as well as timelines, a gigography and a full discography, in an art form all its own. Includes: Foreword by Paul McCartney 150 black-and-white and colour photographs Timelines and gigography Full discography

'A beautiful book by a brilliant mind' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'The best, most mind-bending sort of physics' THE TIMES The world-famous cosmologist and #1 bestselling author of A Brief History of Time leaves us with his final thoughts on the universe's biggest questions in this brilliant posthumous work. Is there a God? How did it all begin? Can we predict the future? What is inside a black hole? Is there other intelligent life in the universe? Will artificial intelligence outsmart us? How do we shape the future? Will we survive on Earth? Should we colonise space? Is time travel possible? Throughout his extraordinary career, Stephen Hawking expanded our understanding of the universe and unravelled some of its greatest mysteries. But even as his theoretical work on black holes, imaginary time and multiple histories took his mind to the furthest reaches of space, Hawking always believed that science could also be used to fix the problems on our planet. And now, as we face potentially catastrophic changes here on Earth - from climate change to dwindling natural resources to the threat of artificial super-intelligence - Stephen Hawking turns his attention to the most urgent issues for humankind. Wide-ranging, intellectually stimulating, passionately argued, and infused with his characteristic humour, Brief Answers to the Big Questions, the final book from one of the greatest minds in history, is a personal view on the challenges we face as a human race, and where we, as a planet, are heading next.

The 20th mystery in the number one New York Times-bestselling Armand Gamache series. Somewhere out there, in the darkness, a black wolf is feeding. Several weeks ago, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Sûreté du Québec and his team uncovered and stopped a domestic terrorist attack in Montréal, arresting the person behind it. A man they called the Black Wolf. But their relief is short-lived. In a sickening turn of events, Gamache has realised that plot, as horrific as it was, was just the beginning. Perhaps even a deliberate misdirection. One he fell into. Something deeper and darker, more damaging, is planned. Did he in fact arrest the Black Wolf, or are they still out there? Armand is appalled to think his mistake has allowed their conspiracy to grow, to gather supporters. To spread lies, manufacture enemies, and feed hatred and division. Still recovering from wounds received in stopping the first attack, Armand is confined to the village of Three Pines, leading a covert investigation from there. He must be careful not to let the Black Wolf know he has recognised his mistake. In a quiet church basement, he and his senior agents Beauvoir and Lacoste pore over what little evidence they have - two notebooks, a few mysterious numbers on a tattered map of Québec, and a phrase repeated by the person they had called the Grey Wolf. A warning - in a dry and parched land where there is no water.

The Irish weather. Subject of endless conversations, the saviour of small talk and famously unreliable. We all know it well, as a constant, if capricious, backdrop to our lives. But how well do we really know it? While our relationship with the weather used to be nearly always personal and nearly always local, now it's also increasingly global. This important relationship that each of us has with the weather, the desire to understand it and a deep concern for how it is changing, inspired Evelyn and Séamus to write this book. They Say It Might Rain tells the fascinating tale of Ireland's weather and our connection to it through the ages. It is both an authoritative guide and a personal reflection of Ireland's weather, blending storytelling with science. From the earliest weather watchers in prehistory to the ferocious Night of the Big Wind in 1839 and the more recent chaos of Storm Éowyn, this beautifully illustrated book explains it all.

The publication of To Kill a Mockingbird in 1960 created an overnight sensation: the novel won the Pulitzer Prize and went on to sell in the millions. Scout, Jem, Atticus, and the other indelible characters helped to create a landmark in the American canon Another, darker version of small-town Alabama in the late 1950s emerged in Go Set a Watchman, Harper Lee’s only other novel, published in 2015 after its rediscovery. Less remembered, until now, however, is Lee the dogged young writer, who crafted stories in hopes of magazine publication; Lee the devoted friend, who cultivated rich connections in Alabama and New York and accompanied her childhood companion Truman Capote to Kansas as he prepared to write the genre-defining In Cold Blood; and Lee the moviegoer, New Yorker, scholar, and citizen, who peppered the pages of McCall’s and Vogue with humane, thoughtful, wryly comic, and acutely observed essays in the latter part of the twentieth century. The Land of Sweet Forever combines Lee’s early short fiction and later nonfiction in a volume as indispensable for her many fans as it is for students of American literature. From the Alabama schoolyards of Lee’s youth to the luncheonettes and movie houses of midcentury Manhattan, from Lee’s reflections on the responsible teaching of children to a delightful account of Gregory Peck and the To Kill a Mockingbird film set, The Land of Sweet Forever broadens our understanding of Lee’s extraordinary talent. For the first time, readers can see Lee’s inimitable voice define itself both before and after Go Set a Watchman and To Kill a Mockingbird, touching on still-vital conversations about politics, equality, travel, love, fiction, art, the American South, and what it means to lead an engaged and creative life. This collection comes with an introduction by Casey Cep, Harper Lee’s appointed biographer, which provides illuminating background for our reading of these stories and connects them both to Lee’s life and to her two novels.

A Times, Resident and Rough Trade Book of the Year"A warm and engaging memoir" Guardian"A beautifully told odyssey" Daily Express"A brilliant book" Mark Ellen, Word in Your EarThe long overdue reflection of life in The Smiths from their legendary drummer.As a band, the Smiths need no introduction. Formed in 1982 and disbanded in 1987, all four of their studio albums reached the top five in the UK charts. They are widely lauded as one of the most influential groups of all time.Mike is the last member of the band to release their autobiography and this is his no-holds-barred story of what it was like to play the drums in the Smiths. Throughout his honest and witty reflections, Mike answers the question he and bassist Andy Rourke used to often ask each other: 'Where did it all go right?'A lot of the Smiths' past is already canonised. Rather than retelling those well-documented iconic moments, in The Drums, Mike conveys 'the feeling' of his time in the band. His off-piste, frank and witty perspective allows him to re-contextualise fan favourite moments through a beautifully vulnerable, human insight into his life.The written history of the Smiths is not missing an encyclopedic account of everything that happened over the years; but Mike's honest, entertaining and deeply human memoir is what Smiths fans have been waiting for. This book truly conveys what it felt like to be a member of the Smiths.In The Drums, Mike Joyce finally gives us the perspective of the self-confessed biggest Smiths fan in the world who from the start was just some lad from the suburbs of Fallowfield who played the drums.

From the moment her parents first sat her in a go-kart, Susie Wolff felt it—the thrill of speed, the spark of something bigger. A little girl who dared to dream of one day racing in Formula One. As a teenager, the posters in her bedroom weren’t of boy bands or movie stars, but of F1 racing heroes. As Susie Wolff rose through the ranks of motorsport, one truth became impossible to ignore: she was almost always the only woman on the grid. Each time she was knocked down, she got back up with the unshakeable belief that instinct and resilience could carve a path through a world not designed for her. The journey was tough, but one day she was handed the opportunity of a lifetime—25 laps in an F1 car. She knew chances like that didn’t come often, and when they did, you had to grab them. After showing she could be competitive in an F1 car, what next? When her racing chapter ended, Susie didn’t stall—she pivoted. Inspired by her husband Toto’s strategic mind and relentless drive in powering one of the most successful F1 teams in history, Susie began to see a new dimension of the sport—one beyond the driver’s seat. She led a struggling Formula E team and transformed it from being at the back of the grid to championship contention. More than that, she learned to evolve. F1 Academy became her next mission: to inspire young women to enter motorsport and shape the future of the sport she loves. In Driven , Susie lifts the bonnet for the first time on her extraordinary life. From the driver’s seat of the racing car to the heart of the F1 paddock, she offers a rare, first-hand view into the inner workings of motorsport at its highest level. She shares the triumphs of her early driving career, the setbacks she faced, and the motivations behind her bold shift from the cockpit to the boardroom. Along the way, she reflects on her transformative relationship with her husband Toto and how she has navigated the balance between ambition and motherhood. Told with clarity and grace, this is the inspirational story of a woman determined not just to compete—but to redefine the race.

Callum, Melusine and Al play in a band with no name, baffling audiences in terrible pubs across the north-east of England with their 'sound'. Their songs tell the stories of the Solkats: fictional northern gods of small things, of mishap and mayhem. No one knows what they're on about. But they believe in their music, and in each other. And they're happy.That is, until an act of violence at a pub gig goes viral, they catch the eye of a disillusioned influencer and suddenly go from having a cult following to having a cult, following. All the Solkats want, Callum insists, is to have effect on the world. But as fans from LA to Australia flock to Northumberland, and each gig becomes larger and more lawless than the last, this effect starts to feel scarily... real. Which poses the question: if the Solkats really do exist, which is it more dangerous to anger: a wayward group of elder gods, or your biggest fans? Because gods and cults both demand sacrifices. And one way or another they're going to get one....

'Back to the Future super-fans are predictably well served here ... Fox's evocative descriptions of a lost Hollywood - pre-word processor, never mind pre-internet - will also interest a more general readership.' - Guardian A poignant, heartfelt and funny memoir about how, in 1985, Michael J Fox brought two iconic roles to life simultaneously - Alex Keaton in Family Ties and Marty McFly in Back to the Future. Here is the amazing true story, as only Michael J Fox can tell it ... In early 1985, Michael J. Fox was one of the biggest stars on television. His world was about to get even bigger, but only if he could survive the kind of double duty unheard of in Hollywood. Fox's days were already dedicated to rehearsing and taping the hit sitcom Family Ties, but then the chance of a lifetime came his way. Soon, he committed his nights to a new time-travel adventure film being directed by Robert Zemeckis and produced by Steven Spielberg--Back to the Future. Sitcom during the day, movie at night--day after day, for months. Fox's nightly commute from a soundstage at Paramount to the back lot at Universal Studios, from one dream job to another, would become his own space-time continuum. It was in this time portal that Alex P. Keaton handed the baton to Marty McFly while Michael J. Fox tried to catch a few minutes of sleep. Alex's bravado, Marty's flair, and Fox's comedic virtuosity all swirled together to create something truly special. In Future Boy, Fox tells the remarkable story of playing two landmark roles at the same time--a slice of entertainment history that's never been told. Using new interviews with the cast and crew of both projects, the result is a vividly drawn and eye-opening story of creative achievement by a beloved icon.

The crown was the symbol of British power in Ireland, and in December 1921 opponents of the Anglo-Irish Treaty claimed that its terms tied Ireland to the Crown forever. The new Irish Free State would be within the British Commonwealth, with limited sovereignty. And some believed it would stay that way if the Treaty was accepted. And yet, within sixteen years, Ireland had become a republic. What had seemed impossible in 1921 had been achieved through relentless pressure, considerable skill and no small amount of luck. This is the story of how it happened.

by Virginia Roberts Giuffre

€25.99

Daughter. Prisoner. Survivor. Warrior. Nobody's Girl ... This is Virginia Roberts Giuffre's last word. In 2011, Virginia Roberts Giuffre hit the headlines as Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's most outspoken victim: the woman whose decision to speak out helped send both serial abusers to prison and whose photograph with Prince Andrew catalyzed his fall from grace. But first and foremost, she became known as a voice of courage and resilience for women everywhere. This is her story, in her own words. A story that has never been told in full before now. It demonstrates with extraordinary power that victims are made, not born. And that once you come to truly understand the horrifying impact of abuse, you will never again question why a victim stays, or returns over and over again. In April 2025, Giuffre took her own life. She left behind a memoir written in the years preceding her death and stated unequivocally that she wanted it published. This is the powerful story of an ordinary girl who would grow up to confront adversity and trauma of the darkest form, yet found the strength to move forwards, reclaim her voice and shine a light on evil - advocating for others and fighting for a safer, fairer world. Nobody's Girl is a remarkable recounting of one woman's fortitude in the face of depravity and despair, and the legacy she leaves behind.

It gives us perspective, reveals knowledge and guides our path.

In this fourth and final instalment of his bestselling Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday uncovers tried and true methods for cultivating wisdom. Drawing on lessons from heroes across history, including Marcus Aurelius, Abraham Lincoln, Maya Angelou and Joan Didion, he shows how to keep an open mind in times of division and disruption; to listen more than we talk; to think with nuance and ruthlessly question our own beliefs. Through cautionary figures like Elon Musk, he shows how dangerous intelligence can be without wisdom - and how we can all escape today's traps of tribalism, certainty and self-righteousness. Are you open to listening? Are you willing to question? Are you here to learn? Wisdom is work. But it's worth it.

Francesca Albanese is the UN Special Rapporteur for Palestinian Human Rights. Since taking up her position in May 2022, Albanese has tirelessly used her position to highlight Israel’s settler colonial violence, through her reports to the UN Human Rights Council and through her engagement with the media and public lectures. She has been one of the most prominent critics of Israel's genocide in Gaza since October 7. In July 2025, the United States imposed sanctions on Albanese for doing her job, citing what it calls 'illegal and malicious lawfare' against Israel and US interests. This is an unprecedented move that violates the diplomatic immunity of UN officials. This book compiles the documentation of the genocide that Albanese has produced since October 2023, alongside a short reflection by her on the current state of affairs, reflections by her predecessors in the role of UN Special Rapporteur, and a preface by her colleague Lex Takkenberg, a 30-year veteran of UNRWA, co-authored with editor and scholar MandyTurner

This is a must read for anyone interested in Irish politics at a time of potential far-reaching change for the republic.

From his breakout role as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show to his iconic depiction as the sadistic clown Pennywise in It to his critically acclaimed role as the original King Arthur in both the Broadway and West End versions of Spamalot, Curry redefined what it meant to be a "character actor," potraying heroes and villains alike with complexity, nuance, and a genuine understanding of human darkness.

In 1929, the world watched in shock as the unstoppable Wall Street bull market went into a devastating freefall, wiping out fortunes overnight and igniting a crisis that would reshape a generation. But behind the flashing ticker tapes and panicked traders, another drama unfolded—one of visionaries and fraudsters, titans and dreamers, euphoria and ruin. With unparalleled access to historical records and newly uncovered documents, New York Times bestselling author Andrew Ross Sorkin takes readers inside the chaos of the crash, behind the scenes of a raging battle between Wall Street and Washington and the larger-than-life characters whose ambition and naivety in an endless boom led to wreckage. The dizzying highs and brutal lows of this era eerily mirror today’s world—where markets soar, political tensions mount, and the fight over financial influence plays out once again. This is not just a story about money. 1929 is a tale of power, psychology, and the seductive illusion that “this time is different.” It’s about disregarded alarm bells, financiers who fell from grace, and skeptics who saw the crash coming— only to be dismissed until it was too late. Hailed as a landmark book, Too Big to Fail reimagined how financial crises are told. Now, with 1929, Sorkin delivers an immersive, electrifying account of the most pivotal market collapse of all time—with lessons that remain as urgent as ever. More than just a history, 1929 is a crucial blueprint for understanding the cycles of speculation, the forces that drive financial upheaval, and the warning signs we ignore at our peril.

'Why am I like this?' is the kind of question you might ask yourself after crying on the phone to your mother from Dollywood because you think you're going to jail for the rest of your life. Or after starting a rumour about the Luas because you were bored that resulted in being personally listed on the Luas Wikipedia page under the heading 'Incidents and criticism'. (You may say to yourself, these are things unlikely to happen to anyone. They have both happened to Carl Kinsella.) In At Least It Looks Good From Space, Carl Kinsella attempts to solve the great human mystery of why we are the way we are, or to at least examine, up close, why he is the way he is, reliving some of the pivotal moments in his life to figure out the whys, the hows and most importantly: whose fault it is. Carl explores the complexities (and simplicities) of being friends with men, how the overwhelming presence of technology affects our lives, his experience with OCD and the reality of intrusive thoughts, how online activity might be making us addicted to attention (or maybe that's just Carl), thoughts on theme parks, how millennials relate to their parents, and that one time he fell into a lagoon. Honest and deeply human, At Least It Looks Good From Space is a colourful search for answers in the midst of a modern world where things can look good from far away, but are often much messier up close.

We walk past remnants of our past every day without noticing. Our ancestors left echoes of themselves all around us, if we only know where to look and how to interpret the signs. These remnants lie all over Ireland, telling us of the lives they once touched. Understanding their story roots our knowledge in the foundations of our society and the customs that have shaped the Irish people over centuries. Remnants of Our Past tells the story of Irish people, their memories preserved in these forgotten places. What is now a cold hearth in a collapsing fireplace was once the warm centre where the family gathered and the fire was never allowed to go out. The tranquil parks in our villages were once bustling fair greens, echoing with the bellowing of livestock and the howls of faction fighters.

In July 2019, Bláthnaid Raleigh travelled from Mullingar to Galway to join in the festivities of the Galway Arts Festivals. She and her friends found themselves in the company of another group from Mullingar. The hours went by as pub gave way to afterparty in a nearby house. There, this night like any other took the most sinister of turns when Jonathan Moran raped Bláthnaid.

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'Thought-provoking, heartwarming and compelling' DAILY MAIL A stunning and emotional new novel from the author of Tuesdays with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven. __________ When he is eight years old, Alfie Logan discovers the magical ability to get a second chance at everything. He can undo any moment and live it again. The one catch: he must accept the consequences of his second try - for better or worse. He grows up correcting his mistakes and saving himself from adolescent embarrassments. He even takes foolishly dangerous risks, just to see what it's like to come close to death, before tapping back to safety. Eventually, Alfie turns his gift to his love life, studying his crushes and going back to make himself more appealing. In time, he falls deeply in love with Gianna, the woman he believes is the one. He seems to find contentment. But as the years pass, Alfie's eye begins to wander. Which is when he learns a lone caveat to his power: once he undoes a love, that person can never fall in love with him again. Knowing if he gives into to temptation, he will risk losing what he has with Gianna, Alfie makes a choice that changes his life forever. The book begins many years later, after an ailing Alfie is arrested for allegedly cheating and winning millions at a casino roulette wheel.

When Fergus Farrell suffered a spinal cord injury in October 2018, doctors gave him a zero per cent chance of walking again. What followed was a journey marked by an overwhelming sense of failure and unimaginable lows- including battling depression, losing his marriage and losing his business. But Fergus refused to give up. And slowly he began to rebuild his body, his life and his concept of what it means to be a man. One year after his injury, Fergus walked 206km across Ireland - a milestone that was just the beginning. From his attempted row across the wild north Atlantic to raising awareness for spinal cord injury research, Fergus turned pain into purpose and setbacks into inspiration. Fergus's story is more than one of recovery; it's about rediscovering who you are when everything is stripped away. Rebuilding a Man is a powerful reminder that even life's toughest challenges can lead to its greatest victories.

by John Boyne

€19.99

'An epic.... Impactful and provocative' The New York Times 'An almost note-perfect piece of first-person storytelling' Guardian 'Subtle, intelligent and humane' Sunday Telegraph ____________ John Boyne's acclaimed quartet of Water, Earth, Fire and Air come together at last. Human life is governed by the elements - water, earth, fire and air. They are fundamental to our existence. They sustain us, but they also challenge us. In The Elements, John Boyne has created a vivid kaleidoscope to reflect that contradiction: a quartet of intertwined narratives, each providing a different perspective on cause and effect from the points of view of the enabler, the accomplice, the perpetrator and the victim. From a mother on the run from her past, to a young football star on trial, a successful surgeon grappling with childhood trauma, and finally a father on a transformative journey with his son, the four strands weave together to form a tapestry of intersecting lives. Boyne's most ambitious work yet, The Elements is both an engrossing drama and a moving examination of the fault lines inherent to human experience. In crisp, spellbinding prose, he navigates a complex subject with extraordinary empathy and unflinching honesty, at every step challenging us to confront our own perceptions of who we are and what made us that way.

'Randal's voice dares to diverge in a world built on conformity and tradition. I genuinely revelled in every moment. This book is raw, heartfelt, brave and just utterly alive' - Seán Ronayne, author of Nature Boy At the age of 28, Randal Plunkett inherited the title of Baron Dunsany, alongside Dunsany Castle and the 1,600-acre estate and found himself at a crossroads. A reluctant aristocrat, he now lets nature run wild on grounds his ancestors farmed for centuries. What Randal had was a vision of Dunsany given back to nature. A memoir-with-a-message, Wild Thing showcases how this poisoned chalice - a cold, leaky, needy castle, with all the responsibilities to the generations before - inspired a personal journey toward fulfilment, a vital mission toward a better, more sustainable, future, and a call to arms for the environment, and the people who live in it.

by Marc Ó Sé

In a county where success is weighed in medals, the Ó Sé brothers all hung up their boots with heavy hearts but even heavier pockets: a combined total of 16 All-Irelands, 28 Munsters and 12 All-Stars making their way back to An Ghaeltacht – a haul which is unlikely to be surpassed by a set of siblings any time soon.

Not only did Marc have his brothers to emulate; in Kerry the voices from the past can often speak loudest. How loud is that volume when your own uncle is the inimitable Páidì Ó Sé? More than just a revealing account of Marc’s own glittering career, Ó Sé is laden with the tales and anecdotes, and the successes and failures that have marked the storied history of this footballing dynasty.

by Betsy Cornwell

€18.99

Betsy Cornwell left home with her baby on his first birthday, checking into a hotel under a false name so her husband could not track them down. Over the long months of housing insecurity that followed, bouncing around cheap motel rooms and friend's couches, Betsy's determination to offer her son something she'd never had - a safe, stable home - took on the force of obsession. In The Old Knitting Factory, Cornwell invites readers to join her on the path that led out of her violent marriage and into renovating a run-down house on a lake in rural Ireland, transforming a largely abandoned and abused vacation house into a family home and childcare-inclusive arts retreat space for other single parents. Along the way, she creates community and finds family wherever she goes - even when she has to build it herself, brick by brick. Mixing Maid's gripping portrait of single motherhood's precarity with The Salt Path's wild, romantic sense of place - in this case among rural Ireland's cool mists, nubbly Aran yarns, and whispering turf fires - The Old Knitting Factory invites readers to experience the magic of found family and new beginnings.

Recently discharged from an upscale psychiatric facility where he was treated for acute depression, he is still wrestling with the pain of losing his beloved sister. Sylvia's deathbed revelation - that she can see spirits who are still tethered to the living world, a gift that runs in their family - sits uneasily with Tate, who struggles to believe in more than what reason can explain. But when he takes up residence at a historic bed-and-breakfast on the Cape, he encounters a beautiful young woman named Wren who will challenge every assumption he has about his logical and controlled world. Tate and Wren find themselves forging an immediate connection, one that neither has ever experienced before. But Tate gradually discovers that below the surface of Wren's idyllic small-town life, hatred, jealousy and greed are festering, threatening their fragile relationship just as it begins to blossom. Tate realizes that in order to free Wren from an increasingly desperate fate, he will need to unearth the truth about her past before time runs out . . . a quest that will make him doubt whether we can ever believe the stories we tell about ourselves, and the laws that govern our existence.

by Ciarán Murphy

€16.99

Hurling is Ireland’s national game – a source of fascination and pride, even to people who have never played it. Ciarán Murphy, a lifelong club footballer, used to be one of those people. Then he spent a summer trying to play hurling with a tiny club in the West Waterford Gaeltacht. Along the way he embarked on a quest to understand the history, geography and mystique of this extraordinary sport. Old Parish is the club of Ciarán’s father, a club where relatives of his are still deeply involved, and possibly the only place brave (or stupid) enough to take on a forty-one-year-old newcomer to the game. Predictably (and at times hilariously), Ciarán finds out just how difficult a sport hurling is to pick up when you’re in your sporting dotage, up against men who’ve played it since childhood. Ciarán also explores why hurling is played in only half the country; he investigates the origins of hurling clubs’ antipathy to football and the difficulties of establishing hurling in new areas; he looks into the mysteries of hurley-making; and he seeks to understand why, when a hurling legend refers to the sport as ‘the greatest game ever played by any man’, he has to be taken seriously. Anyone who has ever watched hurling knows that it is something unique and extraordinary. Old Parish explains why.

We also visit the club: the unbroken chain in the GAA's ageless passing of wisdom before taking a bypass on the Boulevard of Broken Dreams to a barber's shop and a car park. Full of compelling revelations such as for the first time Jack Lynch's startling admission in his final interview of the big regret of his career; the GAA's first miracle; why Kevin Heffernan lost his temper with Bernard Brogan; why Liam Griffin was told he would become a laughing stock; the story of Limerick's gate-crasher and the day Seán Purcell rose from the dead.

The two opposing political figures that shaped Irish life in the 1980s and beyond. In the 1980s, Irish politics was dominated by a fierce rivalry between Charles J. Haughey and Dr Garret FitzGerald, both leaders of their respective parties, Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael. Between them they each led all Irish governments in that decade; to say their two opposing personalities shaped Irish life during this era is an understatement. Eoin O'Malley has amassed an extraordinary body of research, including in-depth interviews with dozens of the most consequential public figures of the time, every Taoiseach, cabinet ministers, TDs, civil servants, and advisers. As political rivals with different approaches to public life and contrasting visions for Ireland, each enshrined in quite different personalities, the choice between Haughey and FitzGerald came to signify a great deal more than party loyalty or policy preference: it felt like a choice between opposing worldviews. And, as O'Malley's work finally makes clear through an accumulation of extraordinary insights, including interviews with Haughey and FitzGerald themselves, it was fed by a deep reservoir of personal insecurity and paranoia. Each was deeply preoccupied - obsessed even - with the strengths, appeal and threats of the other, to the extent that this rivalry itself became one of the decisive factors in Irish life that shaped Ireland well after they had left power.

“Wise, moving, deeply honest.” MARY McALEESE “Tender, funny, humane – a memoir of the courage it takes to lead change.” EMILIE PINE “This is a love story that changed our country forever.” ALI HEWSON During her second year as an Irish government minister, Katherine Zappone’s world was upended when her beloved wife, Ann Louise Gilligan, suffered a catastrophic brain haemorrhage. Their partnership had guided landmark Irish battles for marriage equality and reform of Ireland’s constitutional ban on abortion. But their greatest challenge now lay before them. Love in a Time of Politics describes the cut-and-thrust of Katherine’s life in government – as hospital visits to Ann Louise became a daily reality. It recalls pivotal political moments – such as securing the dignified exhumation of the children’s remains at the Tuam Mother and Baby Home – alongside wrenching personal experiences – such as navigating grief following her wife’s death in 2017, and the controversies of 2021, following her time in government. Ultimately, it is a deeply moving story of love and loss, and a testament to how resilience, hope and conviction can light even the darkest paths.

by Frank McNally

€18.99

You could say that Frank McNally is a travel writer - he writes while the world travels by! For almost twenty years, Frank's name has occupied the byline of the ever-present and perennially entertaining 'Irishman's (or woman's) Diary' (now called 'An Irish Diary' online) column in the Irish Times. Now, from the same desk, the man who has consistently held his finger on the pulse of a nation, turns his attention inwards and gathers his thoughts into a profound narrative of great depth. Picking up on a variety of personal themes which have featured in his column in part or in whole over the years, the book is at once a cohesive reflection on Frank's upbringing in Monaghan, his early career as a civil servant and his eventual foray into journalism, but also covers significant events which have shaped him and the Ireland which he has chronicled with such consistently brilliant perception and wit.

'This intimate new book will change the way we think about the King of Rock 'n' Roll' Telegraph 'A rollercoaster of love and loss' Washington Post The long-awaited, candid memoir by Priscilla Presley chronicling her difficult, inspiring journey beyond the walls of Graceland and behind the elegant image the world sees. The Elvis legacy seen from the inside ... Priscilla Presley's divorce from Elvis left his fans incredulous. How could she leave the man every woman wanted? From the outside, life in Elvis's mansion looked glamorous and enviable, and in many respects, it was. But inside the mansion, her husband was constantly surrounded by a male entourage while at the gates, lines of beautiful women waited hopefully for an audience with the King. From the time she was seventeen years old, that life was all Priscilla had known. During her ten years with Elvis, it became painfully apparent that she had no idea who she was outside Elvis's world. The only way to find herself was to leave that world and seek a new life of her own, because leaving was the only way to survive, for herself and for her daughter. Softly, As I Leave You, is the deeply personal story of what Priscilla lost and what she found when she walked away from the man she loved. Despite the legal separation, their love for one another transformed into a touching and tender dynamic that endured until Elvis's untimely death four years later. Shattered by Elvis's passing, she had to reinvent herself a second time as the single mother of a talented, often headstrong daughter who never really recovered from her father's death. Priscilla's dedication to motherhood was enriched by the birth of her second child, and she gradually found her footing as a businesswoman, actress, designer, and legislative advocate. She transformed Graceland into an international destination and helped guide the development of Elvis Presley Enterprises. But the unexpected, shattering loss of three immediate family members years later brought Priscilla to her knees. She shares her journey with a quiet dignity that will comfort and reassure anyone who has suffered - and survived - seemingly unbearable loss. A passionate, compassionate, and inspiring story of finding your place in the world, Softly, As I Leave You, is a sweet Southern melody that will take the reader with Priscilla on her long road home.

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERTHE LONG-AWAITED SEQUEL TO WILD SWANS, THE MULTI-MILLION COPY INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING SENSATIONA Book of the Year in The Times; Daily Telegraph; Financial Times and Waterstones'A must-read … magnificent' DAILY TELEGRAPH *****'Beautiful and moving' ELIF SHAFAK, OBSERVERJung Chang's Wild Swans was a book that defined a generation, an epic personal history of Jung, her mother and grandmother - 'three daughters of China'. The book opens in 1909 with her grandmother's birth - and foot-binding - when China was under the last emperor, moving through Mao Zedong's rule, especially the Cultural Revolution during which Jung's parents were subjected to horrendous ordeals because of their courage. It finishes in 1978 when Deng Xiaoping officially ended the Mao era and started the 'reforms'. Jung, at that propitious juncture, became one of the first Chinese to leave Communist China for the West.Nearly half a century on, China has risen from a decrepit and isolated state to a global power, the challenger to the United States' dominant position in the world. Through those decades, Jung's life has been intimately entwined with her native land. Her experiences dealing with the regime in those years were rich and revealing - especially so because all her books were (and are) banned.Fly, Wild Swans is the follow-up to Wild Swans and brings the story of Jung's family - along with that of China - up to date. The book is in many ways Jung's love letter to her mother. It is inevitably also about her grandmother and father, both of whom died tragically in the Cultural Revolution but are often recalled in this book. In fact, the past is never far away in Jung's subsequent life. It has shaped her, and moulded the present China, and what's more, it promises to herald the future.China is now at another watershed moment with the era of Chairman Xi Jinping greatly affecting the lives of Jung and her mother. Fly, Wild Swans is Jung's heartfelt response to that experience, and a book filled with drama, love, curiosity and incredible history - both personal and global. Ultimately uplifting, told in Jung's clear, honest and compelling voice, it is memoir writing at its best.'Profoundly revealing as a portrait both of a family and of the deeper traumas that lie at the heart of modern China' RORY STEWART'Another wonder book from Jung Chang…I am quite blown away by it' LADY ANTONIA FRASER

The GAA is more than a game. It's a cornerstone of Irish identity - woven into parishes, families, and the national psyche. But behind the passion and pride lies a question that has never really been asked. Where is the GAA going? In this revealing and timely book, acclaimed journalist Michael Moynihan explores how the GAA is changing, and what it means for the Ireland it serves. Is it still a grassroots, amateur participation movement? Is it a delivery system for elite sport? Is it a real estate organisation with thousands of premises? With sharp insight and deep research, Moynihan tackles the big questions - from unregulated payments to stadium sponsorships, broadcasting controversies, and postponed games for pop concerts. Moynihan lifts the lid on the inner workings of the GAA at a crossroads. At once thoughtful, balanced, and bold, Moynihan shows us the organisation behind the headlines - and why its future matters to us all.

The Bailout Babies dives into the lives of a generation caught between Ireland's crash and comeback. Born in the boom, they grew up in an era of good jobs, easy debt and leisurely brunches. But before they were old enough to benefit - the crash hit, the bailout came, and with it a decade of austerity. Now in their late 20s and 30s, The Bailout Babies are stuck in economic limbo: back in childhood bedrooms or paying extortionate rent, working gigs instead of careers, swiping for love and managing anxiety. But this is not a story of failure - it's a story of reinvention, of how a generation is finding ways to earn, spend and live. This generation is rewriting what adulthood looks like in post-boom Ireland. The Bailout Babies is a sharp, empathetic look at the most populous age group in Ireland- and what it means to grow up when growing up no longer means what it used to.

€19.99

She Died Young is the literary work of an astonishing mind in which intellect, madness, art and raw honesty unite. It is as far from a ‘celebrity memoir’ as you can get. With humour, honesty and a poetic sensibility, Brenda Fricker traces a life-journey in which her resilience and inner strength shine brightly. With luminous memories of happy summers in Kerry, where she and her sister Gránia got up to hilarious mischief and learned to rebel against Irish orthodoxy, she also explores devastating personal challenges. She talks frankly of her complicated adult relationships. She describes the difficulty of surviving sexual violence and living with mental illness. Brenda’s contributions to theatre, film and television represent an artistic legacy that few can match. Her work in films like The Field, Swann, The Swallow, Home Alone 2 and My Left Foot is widely acclaimed and her character, Megan, in TV series Casualty, was a huge success. She is the first Irish actress to win an Oscar.
