Working Class to Breaking Glass

One Woman's Fight to Belong and to Lead

LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION 2026 'Stunningly poetic and vulnerable . . . If this book doesn't change your perspective on relationships, nothing will' GILLIAN ANDERSON 'A fascinating and big-hearted portrait of sex, intimacy and non-monogamy' CLOVER STROUD 'Will leave you thrilled and humming with possibility' YAEL VAN DER WOUDEN 'A candid and insightful perspective on love in all its forms' STYLIST ''Written with verve and style, connecting sexual freedom to a rich, multi-faceted ancestry' NANA DARKOA SEKYIAMAH 'A brave and elegantly executed memoir about the power of writing your own rules, shaking off shame and fighting for a marriage to work' THE TIMES What if you dared to want more - from love, from life, from yourself? Deepa Paul rises from her boyfriend's bed in the early hours of dawn. She gets dressed, slips away with a kiss and cycles home, where she is welcomed lovingly by her husband. There isn't a glimmer of shame, deception or guilt, only the honesty and compassion needed to make this kind of life possible - even if it wasn't always this easy. Whose idea was it? What are the rules? Are you ever jealous? Deepa answers these questions openly and tenderly, as she seeks truths that many of us long to discover, but few dare to ask. Is there more to life and love than what I've always known? Do I deserve it? Is it worth it? Intimate and bold, this is one woman's story of becoming, of desire and of identity, and of finding the answers she believed she deserved - one question at a time. *Previously published in hardback as Ask Me How It Works: Love in an Open Marriage*

A Memoir of Daring to Love Differently

Ask Me

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFrom The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Dorit Kemsley comes a candid memoir in which she reveals the unscripted moments that shaped who she is today.Dorit Kemsley has spent years cultivating a persona that exudes elegance, ambition, and confidence. But behind the designer labels and otherwise picture-perfect image lies a story of resilience, transformation, and self-discovery. Now, for the first time, she's telling this story in full.Before the cameras started rolling, Dorit was raised in a Jewish home in Connecticut, shaped by her family's international roots. But her early interest in fashion soon took her around the world for school and work, which later brought her back to New York City to launch her own global resort-wear line. Along the way, a charming Brit--the man she once thought was the love of her life--swept her off her feet . . .With the effortless charm of a best friend, Dorit reminisces on her early seasons as a Real Housewife, navigating new motherhood in the spotlight. She reveals the true stories behind #PantyGate and #PuppyGate and the ups and downs of her friendships with cast members across nearly a decade on the show. She delves into the fears and traumas she has long kept private, including the dissolution of her marriage to Paul "PK" Kemsley, the terrifying home invasion that shattered her sense of security, and the pressure of living under constant public scrutiny.With candor, humor, and the kind of perspective earned only by a woman who has lived as a wife and mother onscreen for eight seasons and counting, Dorit recounts the lessons she's learned, the mistakes she's made, and the strength she's discovered in starting over.

The Sunday Times No 1 bestseller, now updated with a reflection on Fiona's ongoing journey 'I hope this book can show people a little about what it is like to live with Alzheimer's. How frightening and confusing it is. But also how much life can still bring joy and be valued.' Much-loved broadcaster Fiona Phillips was sixty-one when she discovered that she had early-onset Alzheimer's disease. She had cared for her parents who had both suffered from the disease and now she was facing the same heart-breaking diagnosis - under no illusions about what it would mean for her and her family. With courage and determination, Fiona set out to chronicle what was happening to her in the hope that her book would help others. From the tiny first warning signs - the inability to concentrate and the 'brain fog' she wrote off as the menopause - to the gradual loss of her memories and her growing confusion, she reveals how the disease progresses and how she copes. She also shares her experiences with the NHS and the systems that may seem hard for patients and their families to navigate. Written with Fiona's trademark honesty, Remember When is a compelling and moving memoir as well as a book offering an important insight into life with a disease that will impact many of us. 'Fiona is one of the strongest, kindest and bravest women I know and her honesty and resilience shine through om every page' - Lorraine Kelly 'Fiona and her family are just incredible! The strength, the love, the way they've handled everything with such grace and courage is so inspiring' - Alison Hammond Remember When was a Sunday Times bestseller at no 1, as of 29/07/2025.

THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The empowering, must-read memoir of the end of a marriage and the start of a personal revolution, perfect for readers of Glennon Doyle and Miranda July. AS SEEN ON THE OPRAH WINFREY PODCAST A BEST BOOK FOR SUMMER FOR THE GUARDIAN, SUNDAY TIMES, GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, BRITISH VOGUE, AND MORE! SET TO BE A MAJOR NETFLIX PRODUCTION STARRING GWYNETH PALTROW 'A beautifully written eulogy for the loss of a relationship' Joyce Carol Oates, award-winning author of Blonde 'More than a memoir of divorce, it is a powerful testament to reclaiming voice, power, and joy.' Adrienne Brodeur, bestselling author of Wild Game 'So engaging, so addictive' Vogue ----- How do we go on when a loved one betrays us? On a chilly day in March of 2020, in the early days of the pandemic, Belle Burden's husband of twenty years announced, with no prior warning, that he was leaving her. His decision shocked Belle to her core: she believed he was a happy man, a committed partner, and a devoted father to their three children. She thought he was a man who had settled into the life he had always wanted: a successful career, summers spent at their beloved home on Martha's Vineyard, lots of tennis. Overnight, he transformed from her steady companion into a stranger. As she pieces her life together in the wake of a loss she had never imagined coming, she finds she is much stronger than she ever expected. Belle reflects on her transformation from a shy, quiet girl, nicknamed 'Belle the Good' to a powerful, brave, determined woman. A woman who has learned to use her voice to expose the patriarchal structures that have forced women to be discreet and compliant for far too long. Based on Belle's popular 'Modern Love' essay, Was I Married to a Stranger?, this is the emotional and empowering memoir of self-discovery and what it means to finally be heard. Praise for Strangers: 'A beautifully written eulogy for the loss of a relationship' Joyce Carol Oates, award-winning author of Blonde 'Incredibly, incredibly well done. I inhaled it' Zara McDonald, host of 'Shameless' 'A beautifully written instant classic. Strangers is gripping and heartbreaking and a must-read for every wife-and husband.'

Elise Loehnen, bestselling author of On Our Best Behavior 'If you've ever been ghosted, gaslit or dumped by text, this divorce memoir is the book you need to read' Good Housekeeping 'I devoured Strangers in about two days, greedily absorbing every twist and painful turn ... I loved it.' Telegraph 'Beautiful [and] devastating ... Strangers reads with all the momentum and colour of water-tight literary fiction' British Vogue 'Has the pacing of a true crime novel, while being deeply personal and evocatively written.' The Independent 'A game-changer in the conversations and attitudes around infidelity' Irish Independent

'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.

Why elite Chinese women find themselves caught in a cycle of burnout. Burnout Market Feminism explores the lives of elite urban businesswomen in the Internet Age. Burnout market feminism combines Han Byung-Chul's concept of the Burnout Society and feminist Li Xiaojiang's market feminism theory. To unravel the puzzle of how women in China have thrived in business despite state crackdowns on feminism, Ling Tang argues that it is important to examine the role of the market in postsocialist China and the evolving interplay between illiberal politics and a neoliberal economy. Drawing on multisited ethnography conducted primarily in Shenzhen and Hefei during the Xi era, the author looks at the multiplicity and nuance of the lived experiences of businesswomen and their negotiations with patriarchy across different sociocultural contexts, particularly their confrontations with hetero-patriarchal intimacy norms and male-dominated guanxi business practices. Despite following diverse paths, these women share a common pursuit of achievement and growth—a pursuit that paradoxically narrows their market feminist efforts and leads to burnout, as these negotiations are often reduced to contingent bargains within a neoliberal framework. The book also extends the discussion of burnout beyond that framework, incorporating feminist critiques of women’s burnout under patriarchy and postcolonial critiques of burnout within a rhetorically socialist authoritarian state.
