A Behind-the-Scenes Look at the Cult Classic

In this poignant, magical tale by the acclaimed author of Eventown, two girls find themselves dropped into each other’s world—and must face down dragons they’ve only imagined. Auden “Denny” Greene is happiest with her friend Runa, creating stories set in their imaginary land of Sorrowfeld, where princesses rule and cursed dragons are a constant danger. But now that they are turning twelve, Runa seems ready to give up on the magic of Sorrowfeld just when Denny needs it the most…Princess Auden is the last remaining princess of Sorrowfeld—and on her twelfth birthday, she will be expected to vanquish the dragons that took her family. Only, when a swarm attacks her birthday celebration, all she can do is run…But suddenly. Auden is in Denny’s world. And Denny is in Auden’s.The two Audens have switched places. No one but them has any idea. And now, each girl must come into her own power in order to fight the other’s dragons.&nbsp;The magical beasts of Impossible Creatures meet the body-swap of Freaky Friday, set in a world as fantastical as Wicked’s Oz!&nbsp;

The Ordinary and Extraordinary Auden Greene

A FIZZINGLY ORIGINAL COMING-OF-AGE STORY FOR FANS OF HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY 'Riotously funny, nostalgic and immensely touching.' PANDORA SYKES 'Your new favourite novel.' INDIA KNIGHT 'A debut that sparkles like Marc Bolan's eye makeup.' GUARDIAN For Constance 'Connie' Costa, life is just beginning. She dreams of leaving behind her dull, dreary life in '70s East London, shaking off her deeply embarrassing Greek-Cypriot community of interfering Aunties and pretend 'cousins', and running away with her best mate Vas (fellow misfit; NHS specs; soul of a poet). She is determined to take her rightful place alongside her hero, David Bowie, onstage at Wembley Stadium. Only one thing stands in her way: her father, The Fat Murderer. No longer content with being an absolute imbecile and general abomination of nature, he has dialled up his campaign to ruin Connie's life ever since the untimely death of her mother. If she ever wants to claim the destiny that is rightfully hers, Connie has only one option left: to kill him. Fizzingly original, disarmingly tender and laugh-out-loud funny, BIG NOBODY is a coming-of-age story about first love, first grief, and the long, painful journey to feeling like a somebody. 'Broke my heart one minute and had me really laughing the next.' XOCHITL GONZALEZ, author of OLGA DIES DREAMING 'Hands down the funniest, most original novel I've read in ages.' GRANT GINDER, author of THE PEOPLE WE HATE AT THE WEDDING 'Audacious and hilarious.' RUMAAN ALAM, author of LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND READERS LOVE CONNIE COSTA . . . 'Poignant, authentic and darkly funny' ***** 'Fabulous - I was rooting for Connie the whole way' ***** 'Smart, funny, quirky' *****

Pink Floyd - Shine On

'Brilliant and discursive'Antonia Fraser, Sunday TimesWinner of the FAWCETT PRIZEand EMILY TOTH AWARDIn the 2000 years since her death Cleopatra has been re-created over and over again by poets, artists and filmmakers, each time in a form that fits the prejudices and yearnings of the age that produced it. To Chaucer she was the model of a good wife, while to Cecil B.De Mille she was 'the wickedest woman in history'.This book is about the real Cleopatra, the most powerful woman in her world, but also about the legion of imaginary Cleopatras and about the sexual, racial and political messages they carry.

From the globally bestselling author of Close to Death comes an unputdownable new mystery in the Hawthorne and Horowitz series. 'Easily the greatest of our crime writers' Sunday Times 'Nobody does this crime fiction better than Anthony Horowitz' Crime Time FM 'Anthony Horowitz is a national treasure' Ragnar Jónasson ----------- The Word is Murder, the first book in the Hawthorne series, is being made into a major feature film. The actors have been cast, the script written, and filming has already started in Hastings. But when Hawthorne and Anthony visit the set, they find a far from happy family. The director's pretentious, the screenwriter's an eco-warrior, the two stars hate each other, and the producer has run out of money. And things are about to get much, much worse. In the middle of shooting, the actor playing Hawthorne is stabbed - which leaves the real Hawthorne with no choice. He has to step in and investigate his own murder. Because the killer may not have got the right man. Was it Hawthorne himself who was meant to be the target? A Deadly Episode is a wild ride through a world that the author knows only too well, and the most personal case Hawthorne has had to deal with so far. ----------- Praise for A Deadly Episode . . . 'Clever and playful, this is meta-mystery at its best.' iPaper 'Another winner' Financial Times 'The perfect whodunnit' 5-star reader review 'A very entertaining instalment to this fabulous series' 5-star reader review 'A pacy and entertaining mystery that I loved from start to finish' 5-star reader review 'A roller coaster of red herrings' 5-star reader review 'Full of humour, twists and red herrings' 5-star reader review 'Exceedingly brilliant' 5-star reader review

In his compelling study of if.... (1968), starring which stars Malcolm McDowell as an English public school student who leads a guerrilla insurgence, Mark Sinker traces director Lindsay Anderson's depiction of the progress from repression, conformity and fusty ritual to anarchy and bloody revolt. The film's title is a sardonic nod to Rudyard Kipling's most famous poem, while its narrative explores how prankish rebels are groomed to police an Empire. Released at a time of unprecedented student uprisings in Europe and America, if.... provided a peculiarly English perspective on the battle between generations - the perennial war of the romantically passionate against the corrupt, the ugly, the old, and the foolish. Though its emotional surface is authentically anti-authoritarian, its intellectual substance, as Sinker argues, is rooted in a deep familiarity with the symbols of English ruling-class values. In his foreword for this new edition, Mark Sinker considers if.... 's continuing relevance in respect of two contemporary phenomena (the ghastly commonplace of school shootings; urban terrorism) including the degree to which we somehow continue to feel sympathy toward this small gang of entitled schoolboys. Contemplating director Anderson's ambivalence towards education, not least the jargons of academic film theory after the 1960s, Sinker reflects on how his own approach to the film was informed by the critical lingua franca of the 1980s music press.

'A brilliant, strange and tender exploration of what it is to fail, keep failing, and fail better' Sarah Bernstein, author of Study for Obedience Two men meet in a flat in London. They are total strangers and yet they look remarkably alike. Lewis is grieving his dead wife; Korine is hiding from his very-much-alive one. Lewis never had children; Korine is an ambivalent parent at best. Lewis is an erstwhile actor, too depressed to attend the big audition that has just fallen into his lap. Korine has tried a dozen dead-end jobs but never pursued his acting dreams. Two men living mirror image lives. Each seeking a second chance to get things right. Each wanting what the other has. As If is an existential farce about the road not taken. Surreal and slyly poignant, suffused with ironic melancholia, it is a parable for the twenty-first century everyman: a character trapped in reality's hall of mirrors, endlessly searching for something to live for.

As If

Groundhog Day (1993), directed by Harold?Ramis and starring Bill?Murray, is widely regarded as one of the most original and enduring films of 1990s Hollywood. What begins as a high-concept romantic comedy about a cynical television weatherman forced to repeatedly relive the same day soon deepens into a tale of despair and renewal, coloured by existential unease and the spirit of Samuel?Beckett. In this engaging study, Ryan?Gilbey traces the film's unlikely journey from Danny?Rubin's speculative script, centred on a man condemned to eternity in a small town, to its transformation into a studio classic. Drawing on fresh interviews with Rubin, Gilbey explores the inspired casting of Murray and Andie?MacDowell, the film's quietly radical structure, and the delicate balance between comedy and melancholy that gives Groundhog Day its lasting power. This new edition includes an afterword in which Gilbey reflects on the film's continuing cultural impact, its themes of repetition and despair assuming fresh resonance in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic with its cycle of lockdown and re-opening. He considers Groundhog Day's influence on movies and television from Source Code (2011) and Edge of Tomorrow (2014) to Russian Doll (2019-2022) and I?May?Destroy?You (2020), as well as the 2016 stage musical based on the movie. Groundhog Day, Gilbey argues, has become more than a film; it is now a lens through which we examine repetition, transformation and the rhythms of contemporary life.
