A walking tour of the border region where England and Scotland meet by the award-winning writer, meditating on a complicated, storied relationship through history

A WATERSTONES BEST HISTORY BOOK OF 2024 The border between England and Scotland is rich in history. It has been the site of battles, treaties, castles and crossroads. But it can also be a lens through which to look at the changing history and identities of these two countries. Between Britain is a one-hundred-mile journey through eight centuries. It is a history book, a travelogue, a personal reminiscence and a gently prodding examination of national identity. But above all it is a celebration of a place and the people who live there.

Naturbilder / Images of Nature

Das Buch zeigt erstmals auf, wie die unsichtbare Pflanzenseele in Kunst, Film, Tanz und Wissenschaft Frankreichs dargestellt und mit religiösen und biologischen Konzepten vermischt wurde. Die Bandbreite der Visualisierungen reicht von romantischen Personifikationen im frühen Film über fleischfressende zoomorphe Monster bis zu Ornamenten bei FrantiSek Kupka und Loïe Fuller, die Pflanzenbewegungen zu einem abstrakten Dynamismus stilisierten. Auch der neu erfundene Zeitrafferfilm zeigt das langsame Leben der Pflanzen beschleunigt und schreibt ihnen so Willen und Ausdruck zu. Die Kunst- und Bildgeschichte der postevolutionären anima vegetativa verdeutlicht, dass der vegetabile Animismus Konzeptionen von Natur, Wahrnehmung und Wirkmacht hinterfragt und damit auch den Sonderstatus des Menschen.

Anima vegetativa

<div>Bending genre as a planetary body might bend spacetime, Bashir’s poems live as music and film, as memoir, observation, and critique, as movement across both cosmic and poetic fields.I Hope This Helps&nbsp;reflects on the excruciating metamorphosis of an artist, “a twinkle-textured disco-ball Jenga set” constrained and shaped by the limits of our reality: time, money, work, not to mention compounding global crises. Think of a river constrained by levees, a bonsai clipped and bent, a human body bursting through shapewear. Begging the question, what can it mean to thrive in the world as it is, Bashir says, “Rats thrive in sewers so / maybe I'm thriving.” In these moving, sometimes harrowing meditations, Bashir reveals her vulnerable inner life, how she has built herself brick by brick into an artist.</div>

This collection showcases the speculative writing of Scottish-born and California-based writer Robert Duncan Milne (1844-99) whose works mark him as one of the forgotten pioneers of early science fiction. Hailed as the first full-time science fiction writer in America, this critical edition draws together the most expansive collection of his writing ever published and places his life, works and themes into their historical, literary and scientific contexts. With his writing touching on nearly every subset of the genre, including climate catastrophe, utopia, cryogenics, molecular re-engineering of the body, personality transfer, drone warfare, remote surveillance, and satellite phones, this book offers an overdue correction to the science fiction canon. Grouped thematically and with volume and story introductions that connect Milne’s work to his peers and science fiction scholarship, this is the essential guide to a crucially overlooked writer. Astonishingly prescient and fulfilling the missing link in science fiction literary history that bridges the gap between the likes of Jules Verne and H. G. Wells, Milne makes clear the often-obscured contribution of both Scotland and California in the development of the science fiction genre.

Stories by the Lost Pioneer of Science Fiction

The Essential Robert Duncan Milne

'Gayl Jones's work represents a watershed in American literature . . . her truth-telling, filled with beauty, tragedy, humour and incisiveness, is unmatched' Imani Perry Two epic poems brimming with intimacy, history and revolution, from the acclaimed writer of Palmares and Corregidora. When the Portuguese attack Palmares, Brazil's last fugitive slave enclave, Almeyda and her husband are separated as they flee from the destruction. Amid the flight and re-enslavement of the inhabitants, their narrative emerges. Two powerful poems give voice to the lovers: Almeyda's passionate lament for Anninho, whom she believes has been killed, is combined with his response as he searches for her. Their story is one of longing - for each other, for freedom - and for revolution. 'A once-in-a-lifetime work of literature, the kind that changes your understanding of the world' Yara Rodrigues Fowler on Palmares 'Page after breathtaking page, her prose is intricate, mesmerizing, and endlessly inventive' Deesha Philyaw on Palmares 'Jones's writing powerfully blends narrative and lyricism' Margo Jefferson

When they catch us, they'll take you back.' 'The men they kill, the women they take back.'

The poems in Fuel pick at the weave of oil-soaked world orders to interrogate the ways capitalist death-drive seeps into our unconscious lives. <div>Traversing multivalent intimacies from the underworld of California’s Central Valley oil fields to the quotidian domestic and love’s painful retraction, Stockton’s poems articulate the blurry modes of extraction, fantasy, loss, gender, and labor as they interact and overlap in the shadow of environmental and personal collapse. Between gas station gifts, Venmo requests, and nocturnal love letters, Fuel unravels the self and violent systems of domination, longing for a togetherness that transcends its own ending.</div>

Five Little Friends: A Collection of Finger Rhymes

The Art of Falling in Love Again is the highly anticipated second collection from poet and internet personality Franny Arrieta that speaks on heartbreak and resurfacing after pain with vulnerably and unbreakable hope. Franny Arrieta has made a name for herself as a poet and creator who speaks openly on the universal experiences of heartbreak and the courage it takes to love in a world of opposition. Relatable in its vulnerability, and guided by Franny's gentle and soothing words, The Art of Falling in Love Again takes readers on a deep dive into the struggles of falling in love again--with someone new and with yourself--and the rollercoaster of emotions we all face along the way from heartbreak to healing. The Art of Falling in Love Again is an earnest reminder that it's okay to not be okay after experiencing deep pain; It's okay to have a heart half full or not full at all; It's okay to feel completely broken and unrecognizable. And even if it feels like it never will, love will find you, and you will fall again.

The Art of Falling in Love Again

Every family has a secret. The mega-rich Pallanders are used to luxury - a castle in the Scottish Highlands, a villa in Tuscany, a billion-dollar fortune and an island in the Caribbean - but their perfect life is about to be shattered. Every father has a favourite. Sebastian Pallander dies, leaving a pitiful amount of money to his wife and children. His family fight over the scraps as old rivalries and bitter jealousies come to the surface. And when Pallander's son is killed in mysterious circumstances, everyone suspects foul play. Every killer has a motive. After a desperate race for survival, the relatives gather at their estate to weather the storm. They all begin to wonder: who will be next? Where has all their money gone? And will any of them get what they truly deserve?

The Estate

Love Prodigal

'Richly detailed' THE NEW YORKER'Carr has taken an often overly romanticised historical figure and given her new life and originality.' THE TIMES'A vivid, visceral read' TRACY CHEVALIER'Bold and immediate' TLS***They are imprisoned, but not contained. Three women cross a loch. It is 1567, one of them is pregnant, two of them fretful. The boat takes them to Lochleven castle in the middle of the water. Awaiting them are courtiers braying for blood, hellbent on keeping one of them under lock and key: Mary Queen of Scots. In the tower, Mary's maids Frenchwoman, Cuckoo and watchful Scot, Jane are her only allies, and the chamber their entire world. A new reality sets in where they are at the mercy of not only their keepers, but of raging Scotland itself. In the outside world, Mary's kin, Queen Elizabeth claims she can do little but write. Downstairs, the shrewd jailor-courtier Margaret Erskine places her daughter-in-law Agnes in the chamber as her pair of eyes. Hope seems futile until the bewitching Lady Seton arrives. Seton's power shifts everything in the tower and soon a plan is hatched. But which of them will risk it all to save their mistress? Which woman loves her queen best? The Tower is a triumphant story of desire, grit, God-given power and wiles from a striking new voice in historical fiction.
