Adam Smith

An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

Reciprocity begins with a simple but unsettling question: why have we come to believe that human beings are naturally self-interested, competitive and acquisitive? This galvanising, perspective-shifting book dismantles the myth of Homo economicus to show us the way towards a world whose realities align with our true selves.Drawing on a variety of disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, evolutionary biology, psychology, economics and social epidemiology, Richard Wilkinson demonstrates that the characteristics which we assume to be our human nature are in fact effects of the market societies we live in. He traces how various systems of exchange have created profoundly different forms of social life throughout the course of history, shaping our behaviours, motivations, and the kinds of people we become. Though it may often feel like it, the avarice and oppressions that defines the twenty-first century are not an unchangeable reality we simply have to live with.The book explains why inequality, status competition and consumerism hold so much power over us and reveals the depths to which these forces are entwined with the ever-rising crises of mental illness, political polarisation and environmental destruction. Rather than asking how we can make individuals behave better, it makes a compelling case for restructuring our societies to make life happier, meaningful and more fulfilling for one and all.Rigorously researched, bracingly practical and full of passion and hope in equal measure, Reciprocity offers a bold reinterpretation of the world we live in. It equips us with the necessary tools to look beyond and remake it in our very own, amiably human image.

Reclaiming Humanity from the Market

Reciprocity

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Thirteenth&nbsp;Child comes an irresistible blend of dark fairytale and romantic fantasy. • The town of Mistaken has a secret…and it’s up to one woman to uncover the truth, confront her past, and save the man she loves. "Wonderous and haunting. Erin A. Craig strikes gold again." —Marisha Pessl, New York Times bestselling author of Night Film and Darkly "This book is an undeniable triumph. Beautiful and dark and unforgettable.” —Shea Ernshaw, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A History of Wild Places Like everyone else in the settlement of Mistaken, Greer Mackenzie is trapped. Founded by an ambitious lumber merchant, the village is blessed with rich natural resources that have made its people prosperous—but at a cost. The same woods that have lined the townsfolks’ pockets harbor dangerous beasts: wolves, bears, and the Bright-Eyeds—monsters beyond description who have rained utter destruction down on nearby settlements. But Mistaken’s founders made a deal with the mysterious Benevolence: the Warding Stones that surround the town will keep the Bright-Eyeds out—and the town’s citizens in. Anyone who spends a night within Mistaken’s borders belongs to it forever. Greer, a mapmaker and eccentric dreamer, has always ached to explore the world outside, even though she knows she and her longtime love, Ellis Beaufort, will never see it. Until, on the day she and Ellis are meant to finally begin their lives together, Greer watches in horror as her beloved disappears beyond the Warding Stones, pursued by a monstrous creature. Determined to rescue Ellis, she figures out a way to defy Mistaken’s curse and begins a trek through the cold and pitiless wilderness. But there, Greer is hunted, not only by the ruthless Bright-Eyeds but by the secret truths behind Mistaken’s founding and her own origins. Playfully drawing from Scottish folklore, Erin A. Craig’s adult debut is both a deeply atmospheric and profoundly romantic exploration of freedom versus security: a stunning celebration of one woman's relentless bravery on a quest to reclaim her lost love—and seize her own future.

A Novel

A Land So Wide

'A sensation ... you'll be stimulated, provoked and entertained. Of how many books can that be said?' Sunday Telegraph 'Prepare to be dazzled' Malcolm Gladwell WITH A NEW FOREWORD CELEBRATING 20 YEARS SINCE PUBLICATION Assume nothing, question everything. This is the message at the heart of Freakonomics, Levitt and Dubner's rule-breaking, iconoclastic book about crack dealers, cheating teachers and bizarre baby names that turned everyone's view of the world upside-down and became an international multi-million-copy-selling phenomenon. Asking provocative and profound questions about human motivation, Freakonomics will make you see the familiar world through a completely original lens.

SELECTED FOR THE BBC RADIO 2 BOOK CLUB | WINNER OF THE MSLEXIA NOVEL COMPETITION 'Beautifully written . . . I raced through it' HILARY MANTEL'As exquisitely and tenderly rendered as a Gainsborough painting' TRACY CHEVALIER'Convincing, engaging, transporting' GUARDIAN 'A wonderfully powerful and haunting novel with a hugely gripping plot' DEBORAH MOGGACH 1759, Ipswich. Sisters Peggy and Molly Gainsborough are the best of friends and do everything together. They spy on their father as he paints, they rankle their mother as she manages the books, they tear barefoot through the muddy fields that surround their home. But there is another reason they are inseparable: from a young age, Molly has had a tendency to forget who she is, to fall into confusion, and Peggy knows instinctively that no one must find out.When the family move to Bath, Thomas Gainsborough finds fame as a portrait artist, while his daughters are thrown into the whirl of polite society. Here, the merits of marriage and codes of behaviour are crystal clear, and secrets much harder to keep. As Peggy goes to greater lengths to protect her sister, she finds herself falling in love, and their precarious situation is soon thrown catastrophically off-course. The discovery of a betrayal forces her to question all she has done for Molly - and whether any one person can truly change the fate of another . . .Inspired by true events and told with irresistible vibrancy and wit, Emily Howes' award-winning debut is a captivating and deeply moving novel about art, sisterhood and the price we pay for love.'Vividly imagined and exquisitely brought to the page' RACHEL JOYCE'A beautiful debut' JO BROWNING WROE'An incredible first novel that'll leave you scouring the real-life paintings for clues' STYLIST'A rich evocation of secrets, art, sisterhood and class' i PAPER

The award-winning debut novel selected for BBC Radio 2 Book Club

The Painter's Daughters

For fans of Fredrik Backman, Virginia Evans and Lisa Ridzén, an astonishing, deeply moving novel about finding beauty in the brevity of life, as narrated by the one who knows it best: Death. 'This book will change your life' Joanna Cannon 'One of the most moving books I've read in a long while' Graeme Simsion 'The ending left me speechless' Matthew Quick Travis lives an unassuming life with his cat in a small English town. Travis also happens to be the cosmic force of Death, visiting people in their final days and hours of life, before shepherding them into whatever happens next. He listens to their stories, doesn't judge, and never tries to change anyone's fate... until he meets a young, single midwife called Dalia and her boisterous eight-year-old daughter, Layla. As he gets closer to this small, seemingly unremarkable family, Travis begins to learn what it is that makes life so worth living, and so what it is that is irrevocably lost in death. Full of compassion and deep magic, Everything was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt might be a novel about Death, but it's also about the joy of being alive - appreciating each day we have, from the people around us to the strange wonder of our spinning world. From the five-star reader reviews: 'This book has changed me' 'Completely took my breath away' 'Absolutely blew me away' 'It touched me deeply' 'I want to stand on the rooftops and shout: you MUST read this'

The gorgeous, uplifting top ten bestseller for summer 2026

SHORTLISTED FOR THE NERO AWARD 2026 Readers are falling hard for Cursed Daughters... 'ABSOLUTELY RIVETING!!' 'Will hook you from start to finish... I read in two days!' 'Oh my gosh this book is so good!'' 'I cannot express how much I adored this book - like truly, madly, deeply adored it' Your daughters are cursed. They will pursue men, but the men will be like water in their palms. Your granddaughters will love in vain. Your daughters, your daughter's daughters, and all the women to come will suffer for man's sake... Eniiyi has heard about the family curse her whole life. She's never believed in it. She's also heard, her whole life, that she is the reincarnation of her dead aunt, Monife. Same eyes, same left hand, same scar in the same place. She's never believed in that, either. Then she falls in love with a handsome local boy, and Monife begins to appear to Eniiyi: in her dreams, on the beach, in the mirror, pulling her, it seems, towards the same terrible fate. Can Eniiyi live her life on her own terms, or is history - and the curse - repeating itself? 'Funny and fearless, soaked in secrets, spirit, heartbreak, and love... Impossible to put down' Abi Daré 'A rich and absorbing tale of destiny versus self-determinism... I lost myself within its gorgeous pages' Jennie Godfrey
