Nuances, Niceties and Subtle Shades of Meaning

"The Art of War for the Tik Tok generation" - Donald J Tump (56, Milton Keynes) Geraint Anderson is a genuine phenomenon. Ever since he wrote his bestselling memoir Cityboy, which followed Geraint as he embarked upon a wildly successful (and not at all fraudulent) investment banking career, publishers have been begging him to reveal how he climbed the corporate ladder with such ease. Did he achieve his remarkable brilliance through diligence and hard work? No, he did so because he is a psychopath. In this remarkable book, Geraint explains that the world is rapidly becoming such a brutal place that soon it will only be psychopaths who succeed - whether the aim is to become top dog in business, politics or, indeed, the clergy. Within these pages, you will quickly learn how to think like a stone-cold killer and, in so doing, become the very worst version of yourself. This is the first book of its kind - a realistic manual that explains exactly how to be a winner in today's dog-eat-dog capitalist world. You may not like a lot of what Geraint has to say, but that's only because it's radical, disturbingly honest and usually involves a surgical scalpel. So, stop behaving like a limp-wristed fruit picker and, instead, buy this book. Become what you were always destined to be: a warrior, a winner... a psychopath!

A Poem for Every Spring Day

From bestselling authors Genki Kawamura and Marie Kondo comes a collection of heartwarming and whimsical short stories, based on Marie's personal experience of tidying over 1,000 rooms. Miko is a professional tidier, with a secret. When she enters a room, she is greeted by the voices of every object inside. Visiting her clients, she finds the whispering wardrobe, filled with chatty clothes; the singing study, full of talkative books; the bickering kitchen with its disgruntled drawers of cutlery, and more. Each item: a book, a childhood toy, a jar of miso paste, evokes a new memory for its owner, and what starts as the simple task of tidying a room becomes something profound and life-affirming. With the help of her talking box, Hako, Miko helps people reconnect to themselves and their loved ones through the items that they find in their rooms. As they sort through their rooms, they discover what is truly important in their lives, and what it takes to spark joy.
