Juneteenth

'Heart-wrenching . . . A book to read in a sitting' LUCY CALDWELL 'A gut-punch of a novel' EMMA DONOGHUE 'Cathartic, bold and ultimately hopeful' JESSIE BURTON 'Masterfully written . . . Envelops you' JODIE MATTHEWS 'Powerful' CATHY RENTZENBRINK When her life is unexpectedly upended, Anna escapes London - and her husband - for a remote cottage in the wetlands of rural England. She hopes the solitude might unblock the novel she can't bring herself to write. Out in the marshes, the locals discover something shocking, risen to the surface after many years buried in the silty earth. Anna is drawn to the site, fascinated and shaken by what she finds there. And as researchers descend, her curiosity gives way to obsession . . . An unsettling, propulsive and fiercely tender novel about buried loss and renewal, Our Numbered Bones explores how we must unearth the past in order to make peace with what we've lost.

Our Numbered Bones

'Alice Vincent is on song' KATHERINE MAY 'Stimulating and humane' AMY LIPTROT 'A quiet and profound kind of miracle' CLOVER STROUD Like so many of us, Alice Vincent had become overwhelmed by the sensory overload punctuating her every moment. Then a baby's heartbeat arrived. A rapid, pulsing whoosh of white noise. An undeniable rhythm. Suddenly, Alice's life changed. With the birth of her son came a new experience of the sensory world around her. From the phantom crying heard by mothers across the world to the nightingale's song and the crackle of the aurora borealis, Hark is a journey into sound and the changing seasons of a life that will ring true for many women.

Hark

THE BOLD NEW NOVEL FROM THE PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE PANOPTICON, LUCKENBOOTH AND OOTLIN 'Wondrously clever, imaginative and slyly satirical ... a fierce talent' The Times 'A scorching meditation on being human' Financial Times 'Fizzes with impatience, invention and humour' Guardian '1984 for the afterlife' Irvine Welsh Edi is facing a disciplinary since her 'incident' at work. Forty-seven years in Admin processing the newly dead is not how she foresaw eternity. In Arrivals, the newly dead must take the stages in order: first, extract delusion; second, answer HR's questionnaire truthfully. Yet who among them can truly face who they are? Who may never pass at all? As leaderboard numbers begin to rise at unprecedented rates, rumours begin to fly. Humans are about to become a banned race. The earth is going to be repossessed. As chaos descends, Edi hopes this might finally be the moment she has waited for, so she might see her son again who she was forced to leave on Earth when she died. Edi wants to be the one waiting for him, even if HR protocols forbid it. Looking out at the millions of newly dead arriving, Edi has one question - what might any of us truly be willing to do for those we love at the doors of eternity? Against a spectacular backdrop of stars, constellations and comets, a mass extinction event begins to unfurl watched by the entire universe as Processing, the largest soul terminus in existence, decides it is now time to take matters wholly back into its own hands. With reflections on love, defiance and light, The Delusions is a story of profound human connection, on an unprecedented scale.

The Delusions

Complete Book Series

Take an exhilarating ride through Jaguar production history, from the original SS to the I-PACE EV, with narratives, photos, and spec tables for each. In 1935, a pair of motorcycle enthusiasts in Coventry, England—William Lyons and William Walmsley—established a firm called the Swallow Sidecar Company. Soon, they pivoted to automobiles, launching a sporting saloon (i.e., sedan) called the Jaguar SS. The decision set in motion the company that would create Britain’s most beloved line of high-performance automobiles. The Complete Book of Jaguar, 2nd Edition, tells the whole story with: <ul><li>A thorough profile for every production model, presented in chronological order</li><li>Spec tables&nbsp;highlighting key technical and performance specifications and their changes across each model</li><li>Narratives by distinguished motoring historian Nigel Thorley discussing the innovations and technology featured in each model</li><li>Color photography of new and restored examples</li><li>Historical black-and-white imagery</li><li>A new chapter covering Jaguar’s commitment to an alt-fuel future with extensive up-to-date coverage of the hybrid E-PACE and F-PACE SUVs and the I-PACE EV</li></ul> As you turn the pages, follow Jaguar’s trajectory to becoming one of the world’s most celebrated automakers. In England’s bleak postwar years, the company was a shining star—first with its XK120, followed by the XK140 and XK150. Sporting sedans like the Mark 2 and Mark X set the bar for luxury four-door transport in the ’50s and ’60s. Then Jaguar stunned the world in 1961 with the achingly beautiful E-Type, a genuine 150 mph sports car.&nbsp;Though Jaguar lost its way periodically in the modern era, it has bounded back stronger than ever in the twenty-first century with a strong lineup that includes the new F-Type sports car. The Complete Book of Jaguar, 2nd Edition, is the essential and most current guide to one of the truly iconic marques in the history of sports and luxury automobiles. Filled with photos and data-packed spec charts, Motorbooks’ Complete Book series presents automotive and motorcycle enthusiasts with authoritative histories celebrating their favorite vehicles. Some other subjects in the series include Corvette, Porsche 911, Ford Mustang, Ducati, BMW Motorcycles, Dodge and Plymouth Muscle Cars, and Volkswagen GTI.&nbsp;&nbsp; Also available from the series:The Complete Book of Ford Mustang, The&nbsp;Complete Book of BMW Motorcycles, The&nbsp;Complete Book of Corvette, The&nbsp;Complete Book of Porsche 911, The&nbsp;Complete Book of Dodge and Plymouth Muscle Cars, The&nbsp;Complete Book of Chevrolet Camaro, The&nbsp;Complete Book of Classic Ford Tractors, The&nbsp;Complete Book of Classic John Deere Tractors, and The Complete Book of Classic Volkswagens.
