Miller L: Why Fish Don't Exist

Why Fish Don't Exist

A Story of Finding Our Way in a Chaotic World

As an artist and writer, Mark Haddon has always created vivid and unforgettable images. Now he takes his own life as raw material, writing about growing up in the cultural wastelands of the English Midlands of the 1960s and 70s. Simultaneously heart-breaking and hilarious, Leaving Home is portrait of the artist both as a child and as an adult.. His 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 he 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 knickerbocker glories and heart surgery, about papier mâché and mental breakdown and great white sharks. 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. It's richly illustrated throughout with images from the author's childhood, some of them altered in unforgiveable ways. 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.

Seeking Sexual Freedom

'A beautifully written eulogy for the loss of a relationship' Joyce Carol Oates 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. Exploring the transformation of a shy, quiet girl, nicknamed 'Belle the Good' to a powerful, brave, determined 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, Strangers is a must-read memoir of self-discovery.

The Search Warrant

In the aftermath of loss, a mother and her young son cross the ocean to a remote strip of land on the North Atlantic. Viewed from the edge, where land meets sea, coastlines become sites of constraint as well as of flux and change. Through art, philosophy, poetry, geology and Minecraft, Coutts starts to imagine new ways of being and a new existence for her small family. With the precision and clarity of the camera, Coutts combines the real with the fictional, interweaving folk song, maps and island lore to present a devastating and fierce reflection on intimacy and separation, parenthood, photography and the fragility and strangeness of our environment. What Did the Deep Sea Say? is a stunning meditation on how the physical world can bring us back to earth from the edge of grief.

What Did the Deep Sea Say?

An extraordinary first-hand account of Russia's descent into totalitarianism, paranoia and madness. Marc Bennetts, Russia correspondent for The Times, moved to Russia in the final years of President Yeltsin's rule - settling in what was then the most exciting new free country in the world after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Thirty years later, The Times pulled him out of Russia over concerns for his security. He is now banned by the Kremlin. His Russian wife and Russian-born daughter, meanwhile, have returned to Moscow, a place he may never be able to go to again. Beginning with the Prodigy's legendary concert in Red Square, which seemed to signal a new era of freedom for the Russian people, and ending with the author narrowly escaping death under Russian fire in Eastern Ukraine, this book is a unique and personal diary of a descent into totalitarianism, from a man whom in his own words, once loved Russia. He witnessed the often-terrifying events in Russia up close, observing how slowly but surely freedoms were stripped away and how the Kremlin's ubiquitous propaganda warped minds and fomented hatred of Putin's foes, both real and imagined. Bennetts meets a vast array of characters, from Russian MPs, Chechnyan rebels, influential Russian Orthodox Church officials and violent Kremlin activists to opposition figures and a Siberian shaman. In this extraordinary panorama of a place gone mad, he shows exactly how a democracy becomes a totalitarian state, as democracies around the world elect strongmen as their leaders. This book shows how easily it can happen.
