The new edition of Christopher Hampton's renowned adaptation, revised and with a new introduction for the play's fortieth anniversary. 'One of the best stage adaptations ever written.' OBSERVERYou see, I have no intention of breaking down her prejudices. I want her to believe in God and virtue and the sanctity of marriage, and still not be able to stop herself. I want passion, in other words. Not the kind we're used to, which is as cold as it's superficial, I don't get much pleasure out of that any more. No. I want the excitement of watching her betray everything that's most important to her. Former lovers, the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont now compete in games of seduction and revenge. At the play's dark heart is their conspiracy to corrupt Cécile, a young girl barely out of her convent. Adapted from Choderlos de Laclos's scandalous epistolary novel, Les Liaisons Dangereuses opened at The Other Place, Stratford-upon-Avon, in 1985. The play was revived at the National Theatre, London, in March 2026.

Les Liaisons Dangereuses

A Novel

The Queens of Crime

Sisters of Light and Shadow

A witch hiding a dangerous secret is thrust into an elite magical academy, where survival means risking her life and her heart. Dark secrets. Deadly choices. A destiny that can't be outrun. Welcome to Shadowcraft Academy. Eléa Deniz dreads going home to the French countryside after leaving four years ago. Upon her return, she finds the estate has become host to the Shadowcraft Academy, an elite graduate school where a world of mysteries and power plays await. What's worse, her father is the enigmatic and ruthless headmaster with an agenda of his own. And then she discovers a prophecy about her magic that could change everything. As her power is tested, Eléa becomes torn between Alex, her stoic first love whose loyalties are as murky as his past, and the brash, irreverent Logan, who challenges her to see herself in new ways. Faced with family secrets, a secret society, and the weight of her own magic, Eléa must reclaim her power and forge her own path. Destiny is calling... and it demands a price.

Curses, Keys, and Secret Societies

A fresh interpretation of the Enlightenment that reshapes our understanding of political economy and its intellectual foundations.The origins of political economy are often told as a story of increasing certainty, rationality, and scientific progress. But what if its earliest thinkers were instead preoccupied with uncertainty? In Doubtful Knowledge, Richard Adelman offers a striking new interpretation of eighteenth-century political economy by tracing its roots to the skeptical philosophy of the European Enlightenment.Moving between Scotland and France, Adelman reveals how figures including David Hume, Adam Smith, Denis Diderot, Jean Le Rond d'Alembert, François Quesnay, and the Physiocrats developed a shared understanding of the limits of human knowledge. Rather than presenting markets or societies as systems that could be fully understood or controlled, they emphasized the complexity of the social world, the fallibility of human judgment, and the need for intellectual humility. Through close readings of major philosophical and political-economic texts, Adelman demonstrates that skepticism was not peripheral to early political economy but fundamental to its emergence. Challenging long-held assumptions about the history of economics and Enlightenment thought, Doubtful Knowledge reframes debates about commerce, governance, progress, and human nature.By bringing together intellectual history, literary studies, philosophy, and the history of political economy, Adelman offers a compelling account of how eighteenth-century thinkers understood knowledge itself--and why their questions remain relevant to contemporary discussions about economics, politics, and the limits of expertise.

Skepticism and the Birth of Political Economy

Doubtful Knowledge

This landmark collection provides new insights, concepts and techniques to understand and respond to tort claims based on illegal conduct. It is the first comparative study of this difficult field, which has remained contested despite numerous decisions of the highest courts in the common law world. The collection draws on scholars from common law and civilian jurisdictions spanning Argentina, Australia, Brazil, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, South Africa and Sweden. Together they set out fact patterns, and justifications for tort liability to illustrate the coherence and unity that exists when courts address such claims. While common law legal systems have developed a specific defence of illegality for some of those fact patterns, civilian jurisdictions tend to see illegality operating, if at all, through the existing components of tort liability. The book explains how these different approaches have been reached, how they work, and what they reveal about reasoning in tort.

Les Crimes célèbres

From&nbsp;The Unexpected Diva&nbsp;author Tiffany Warren—a dishy and dramatic novel of the Harlem Renaissance and its most famous Black debutante, Yolande Du Bois, daughter of W.E.B. Du Bois, whose spectacular wedding to poet Countee Cullen was the society event of the year...even though the bride and groom were not-so-secretly in love with other people.A century ago, Harlem’s glittering social scene had a single princess: Yolande Du Bois, the only child of N.A.A.C.P. icon W.E.B. Du Bois. Yolande was bold, vivacious, and beloved of every gossip columnist. A true daddy’s girl, Yolande followed her father’s advice on everything: from where she went to college (Fisk—Papa’s alma mater) to which sorority she joined (Delta Sigma Theta). But in matters of the heart, Yolande and her father did not agree. Dr. Du Bois himself curated a string of handsome suitors from the “Talented Tenth” for her, but Yolande’s true love was jazz musician Jimmie Lunceford, son of a working-class family from far-off Denver, Colorado. Their romance was an open secret, and more than a little scandalous.Despite it all, Yolande wound up marrying her father’s choice: famed poet Countee Cullen. Their lavish uptown wedding was the hottest social ticket of 1928. With three thousand attendees, sixteen bridesmaids, and Langston Hughes as a groomsman, it was truly a sight to behold. But, immediately after the wedding, Yolande’s carefully constructed fairy tale begins to crumble. Torn between the expectations of her father and society and her heart’s true desire, Yolande is forced to decide whether she must leave Harlem to create a more authentic life on her own terms.A Harlem Wedding&nbsp;is a heady read about love, notoriety, Black excellence, deception, and the très chic lifestyles of the Black elite, from speakeasies of Harlem and the green fields of Fisk University, all the way to Le Grand Duc in Paris.

'Tender, transporting, creative and beautifully written ... Simply glorious, from start to finish' Rachel Clarke, author of Dear LifeSimultaneously heart-breaking and darkly hilarious, Leaving Home is a portrait of the artist both as a child and as an adult.Mark Haddon's parents were not really cut out for the job of having children. They were cut out, respectively, for the jobs of designing abattoirs and keeping a pathologically clean and tidy house. At least Mark had the consolations of The Weetabix Solar System Wallchart, walnut whips and the occasional Babycham.Astringently honest and scalpel sharp, this is a book about being different and seeing the world differently. It's about being a cartoonist and a care assistant. It's about family. It's about how art, in all its varied forms, provides a way of understanding and coming to terms with the mess of human life. And it's richly illustrated throughout with images from the author's childhood.As bracing as it is embracing, Leaving Home is about escaping a place that never felt like home and learning to create somewhere that does.'I loved this funny, melancholy and arrestingly original memoir of an artist's coming into being' Sarah Perry, author of Enlightenment

Leaving Home

British Library Tales of the Weird

Spurned lovers return from the grave to haunt their partners, ghost ships materialise on the sea, a bird's eerie cry lures the unsuspecting to their deaths in a marsh... Welcome to the unsettling world of the French weird.From German-inspired gothic tales to chilling contes cruels, the stories in this anthology follow the evolution of uncanny fiction in France from the post-revolutionary turmoil of the early nineteenth century, through World War Two and into the early 2000s. They're tales influenced by, and often seeking to justify, civil and political unrest, populated by those forced to cope with constant change and rebellion, seeking some solace amongst the chaos.Featuring strange stories from Gallic literary heavyweights Charles Nodier, Théophile Gautier and Guy de Maupassant, as well as unsettling tales from voices less well known outside France, such as Nathalie Henneberg, Claude Seignolle and Christine Renard, Danse Macabre is a beguiling concoction of fractured melodies that moves to its own unique rhythm.

European Administrative Governance

This book investigates the extent to which regions participate in and influence EU policymaking through the lens of Multi-Level Governance.Focusing on the 2021-2027 Cohesion Policy programme, it examines whether regions – traditionally central actors in EU governance – are progressively experiencing a diminishing role. By comparing the current programming cycle with previous ones, the book analyses the degree of regional participation in shaping the Cohesion Policy agenda setting. Adopting a comparative and empirically grounded approach, it explores two member states – Italy and France – and four regional case studies – Tuscany, Veneto, Brittany, and Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur. By assessing whether regional actors still effectively influence Cohesion Policy content, the book demonstrates that recent crises, including the financial crisis, rising Euroscepticism, and the COVID-19 pandemic, have accelerated centralisation trends within the EU. It also shows how instruments such as Next Generation EU and National Recovery and Resilience Plans have further strengthened national governments, often limiting meaningful regional involvement.Combining theoretical insights with policy relevance, this book will appeal to scholars of EU studies, public policy, and regional governance, as well as policymakers engaged in Cohesion Policy and the future of EU governance.Sara De Martino is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the DIRPOLIS Institute, Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, Italy.

'A masterpiece. It pushes the fused power of memoir and story to a new dimension' Ali SmithA heart-rending work of autofiction from one of Norway's most prominent literary writersParis, a winter's night in 1983. She is sixteen years old, lost in unfamiliar streets. On a scrap of paper in her pocket is the address of a photographer, K, thirty years her senior. Almost four decades later, as her life and the world around her begins to unravel, the grown woman seeks to comprehend the young girl of before and looks for ways to disclose a long-guarded secret.Set in Oslo, New York and Paris, Girl, 1983 is a genre-defying and bravura quest through layers of memory and oblivion - a raw and haunting exposure of beauty and forgetting, desire and shame, power and powerlessness. 'Ullmann's gaze on the power and pain of a teenage girl as remembered and restaged by her adult self is unflinching and startling' Deborah LevyLONGLISTED FOR THE WARWICK PRIZE FOR WOMEN IN TRANSLATION 2026
