‘Some of the best Indian cooking you can find’ Tom Parker Bowles, Mail on Sunday Darjeeling Express began life as a dinner for 12 guests at home – Indian food, lovingly cooked from family recipes going back generations. The recipes are homage to Asma’s royal Mughlai ancestry and the busy streets of Kolkata, where she grew up, resulting in a mélange of street food such as papri chaat (fried dough with chickpeas, yoghurt and chutney) alongside royal recipes such as lamb dum biryani (lamb curry cooked with rice and spices), spanning Kolkata in the east to Hyderabad in the south.

The kitchen at Asma’s restaurant, Darjeeling Express, is run by an all-women team and champions homestyle food cooked with passion to nourish body and soul. The recipes are split between simple mid-week meals for two, family feasts for quick and easy cooking and celebratory feasts.

Asma Khan comes from a royal background – Rajput on her father’s side and Bengali on her mother’s.

After training as a lawyer, Asma registered for a food business, which began life as a supper club in her home in Kensington, London. In 2015, Asma opened a pop-up to much acclaim; Darjeeling Express, the restaurant, opened its doors in London’s Kingly Court, Soho, in June 2017.

A creative guide to landscapes in textile art using paint, mixed media and stitch Using the landscape as a motif, Cas Holmes demonstrates an approach to textile art that focuses on using found objects, paint and stitch on cloth and paper, as well as a technique known as ‘stitchsketching’. She explains how to exploit the contrast between the hands-on textural quality of working with fabrics and threads and the spontaneity and movement of brush marks to lend a painterly quality to textile art. Equipped with these techniques, Cas goes on to explore the landscape as a motif, looking at urban spaces and the changing seasons as well as great landscapes. The book showcases landscape artworks by the author, as well as works by other internationally renowned textile artists, and will inspire textile artists of all levels.

Cas Holmes is one of the UK’s most renowned textile artists. She exhibits widely and runs courses at West Dean College. She has written for magazines including The Quilter, and has contributed to Workshop on the Web. Cas is the author of Stitch Stories and The Found Object in Textile Art and co-author of Connected Cloth, all published by Batsford. She lives in Maidstone, Kent.

PATRICK HERON Sara Matson & Andrew Wilson Pavilion | 9781911624318 | £22.00 | May 2018 | HB Illustrated throughout | 160 pages | 265 x 212 mm

Published to accompany the first major Heron retrospective in two decades Patrick Heron (1920–99) held a unique position in 20th-century art. As one of the first British artists to embrace abstraction, he played a major role in the development of post-war art. Heron welcomed the eruption of American art in the 1950s and was strongly affected by his first encounters with abstract expressionism, yet European artists such as Matisse, Bonnard and Braque remained a fundamental influence on his work.

This lavishly illustrated publication ranges from Heron’s paintings of the 1940s to his late career, showing the full evolution of his vibrant abstract language and offering a unique opportunity to explore the extent of this modern master’s sense of scale, colour and composition. Thought-provoking texts will introduce and explain Heron’s visual strategies, including themes on autonomy, formal equality, edge consciousness, scale and asymmetry. This unique approach allows Heron’s practice to be reviewed from an entirely fresh perspective.

Sara Matson is Exhibition and Displays Curator, Tate St Ives.

The definitive account of the modern art made in St Ives from the 1930s to the 1960s For twenty-five years, the small town of St Ives was one of the leading places in the world for the production of avant-garde art. The community there spanned three generations and included such international figures as Naum Gabo, Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson, as well as a number of the foremost artists in postwar Britain, including Peter Lanyon, Patrick Heron, Terry Frost and Roger Hilton. They found themselves contributing to the international search for art in the post-war world, and they established a modernist practice that continues to influence today.

The story of St Ives and the artists who lived and worked there has captured the imagination of art lovers since it began. This book is the product of decades of research by leading authority Chris Stephens, and illuminates the period for dedicated fans and new readers alike.

Chris Stephens is Director of the Holburne Museum, Bath. He was Curator, Modern British Art at Tate Britain from 2001 until 2017. He is the author and editor of numerous titles including David Hockney (with Andrew Wilson); Barbara Hepworth: Sculpture for a Modern World (with Penelope Curtis); Terry Frost and Modern Art and St Ives.

Over a century’s worth of tales from the weirder end of the pitch

Part of the bestselling Strangest® series, with over 1 million copies sold

‘It’s a funny old game.’ The world’s favourite sport has certainly given us its fair share of strange moments; this absorbing collection gathers together the best of them, from more than a century of the beautiful game. From Blackburn Rovers’ one-man team to Wilfred Minter’s seven-goal haul in which he still ended up on the losing side, here are goals and gaffes galore drawn from all levels of the footballing world, whether high-profile internationals or the lowest tiers of domestic football. The stories in this book are bizarre, fascinating, hilarious and, most importantly, true.

This absorbing collection of bizarre tales from the lengthy annals of the sport’s history feature stories of tragedy, eccentricity, tactical slip-ups and ones that defy categorization altogether. Meet ‘Mysterious Montague’, for example, one of the world’s best golfers but a man who refused ever to compete in a tournament. Plenty of golfing greats are included – Gene Sarazen, Chip Beck, Greg Norman and Nick Faldo – all of whom have played their parts in irrational finishes, record rounds and famous freak shots.

Andrew Ward is a sports fanatic, journalist, inveterate chronicler of the weird, and the author of Cricket’s Strangest Matches, Golf’s Strangest Rounds, Bridge’s Strangest Games and Horse Racing’s Strangest Races.

An essential book from one of the world’s greatest grandmasters

A great strategy book by a Swedish International Master

In Practical Chess Endings, Paul Keres explores the fundamental principles of the end game in chess.

It is not by memorizing moves but by understanding the basic positions that a player, of whatever rating, will most improve his or her endgame play. For this reason, Keres does not simply point out the best move; rather he explains the positions in such a way that the reader’s understanding will lead, almost automatically, to the best move. This is a welcome paperback edition of a classic chess book, for players looking to improve their game.

In this new book, chess writer and teacher Thomas Engqvist explores the most important chess positions in all stages of the game. Divided into three sections, the book shows readers how to achieve the most useful positions in the opening of a game, the middle game and the endgame, and how to make the most of each piece on the board. A great general strategy book that will help chess players of all levels to improve their game.

Paul Keres (1916–1975) was an Estonian chess grandmaster and chess writer. He was among the world’s top players from the mid-1930s to the mid1960s and runner-up in the Candidates’ Tournament on four consecutive occasions.

Thomas Engqvist is an International Master from Sweden with over 30 years’ experience as a chess coach and teacher. He has worked with players at world championship level in both junior and correspondence chess. He is also the author of Chess Strategy for Kids (Gambit).

A roaringly brilliant book on prehistoric beasts from the bestselling wildlife illustrator This beautifully illustrated book looks at the amazing beasts that followed in the dinosaurs’ footsteps – from the relatively well known, such as the sabre-toothed tiger and woolly mammoth, to the obscure monsters that walked the Earth up to 65 million years ago, many now forgotten. New findings are being made every year, and research is showing us exactly how these beasts looked and how they lived.

Creatures illustrated and described include the Glyptodon – an armadillo as big as a VW Beetle car; the Megalodon – a monster 60-foot shark; and the Water King penguin – a red and grey penguin the size of a man. Less celebrated than the dinosaurs, the range of beasts is equally impressive. Like the dinosaurs, these beasts are stunning in their variety, with amazing details not seen on animals today and in a wide variety of furs, feathers and colours.

Scientific consultant is Dr Stephen Brusatte, vertebrate palaeontologist at The University of Edinburgh.

Matt Sewell has been described as ‘the Banksy of the bird world’. He works in a variety of media including T-shirts, posters, interiors, sculptures and walls.

REALLY REMARK ABLE REPTILES Jake Williams Pavilion Children’s | 9781843653721 | £12.99 | August 2018 HB | Colour illustrations throughout | 96 pages | 280 x 220 mm Ages 5–11

By the winner of the BDC New Designer of the Year 2017 Reptiles are some of the most highly specialized and incredible animals in the world. They have been around since before the dinosaurs; they have adapted and evolved to live in the most extreme environments on Earth, as well as having some interesting tricks up their sleeves for catching prey and avoiding being eaten.

All sorts of strange and wonderful facts are inside this book, such as why crocodiles swallow stones, why a group of turtle eggs will hatch at the same time, and which is friend or which is foe of the similar-looking coral and milk snakes. It is packed with fascinating information on reptile senses, habits, habitats, defences and much more, including information on how we can help preserve these amazing habitats from the greatest danger to reptiles ever: climate change.

Jake Williams is a Plymouth-based illustrator, designer and occasional animator. He creates shapebased vector illustration with bold and vibrant colours.

Jake was awarded BDC’s New Designer of The Year 2017 for his Resilient Reptiles project, which formed the basis of this book.

ODD SCIENCE: AMAZING INVENTIONS James Olstein Pavilion Children’s | 9781843653738 | £9.99 | September 2018 HB | Colour illustrations throughout | 80 pages | 220 x 220 mm Ages 5–11

Weird and wacky science facts to make us laugh, marvel and learn Odd Science: Amazing Inventions is the first in a new series of fun books fi lled with amazing, never heard before facts. Read about the trainers made of spider silk, wonder at the first record played in space and tell friends about the robot built in 1937. There are facts about electricity being used as glue, facts about glow-in-the-dark cats and facts about nano-robots that can ‘swim’ inside the body! James Olstein beautifully illustrates these odd facts, and more, in a retroinspired, quirky style.

PREY MATINÉE When researchers at Newcastle University wanted to see if insects could see depth in the same way that a human can, they decided to think outside the box. The team made tiny 3D glasses, then used beeswax to stick them onto praying mantises. They then successfully played 3D movies they had made specifically for the insects.

James Olstein is an illustrator living in Philadelphia, USA. He has illustrated for the BBC, Monocle magazine, Mental Floss, Scientific America, Sierra magazine, Economia, the Boston Globe and the National Constitution Centre. He has displayed his work at various galleries, including Spoke Gallery New York and Galleries 1988. He runs the successful blog ‘Illustrated Science’.

CH ILDR E N ’S BOOKS HANGING ROUND Underwater robots could soon be hitching rides on the back of deepsea wildlife without harming it in anyway. The real-life Remora fish has inspired a machine with a suction cup that can cling to underwater surfaces with a force that is 340 times its own weight.

EXPLORING SPACE Simon Tyler Pavilion Children’s | 9781843653745 | £12.99 | September 2018 HB | Colour illustrations throughout | 96 pages | 280 x 215 mm Ages 5–11

A fascinating and boldly illustrated compendium of space, planets and space travel One day, our sun will grow...and grow...and grow... until it ends its life as a red giant 400 times its current size. Wonder at facts like these, and much more, in this new illustrated guide to Space. Space is fascinating, and in this book Simon Tyler gorgeously illustrates the planets, meteors, rockets and galaxies – even strange phenomena such as the speed of light and solar flares!

Colourful, detailed illustrations in a modern, graphic style capture the technology involved in space travel and exploration. 2019 will see the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing in 1969, and humans’ fascination with space shows no sign of abating.

Simon Tyler is a designer, illustrator and writer based in St Leonards-on-Sea. His work has featured in The Times, Telegraph, Daily Mail, Guardian, Independent, Elle Decoration, It’s Nice That, and others.

He runs Atomic Printworks, which is reinventing the educational poster for the 21st century. He is also the author of Bugs.
