MARY BERRY COOKERY COURSE

By SEBASTIEN LATHUILE Paperback

top picks

What was once considered incomplete and in need of repair, is chic and hip today: in new office buildings copper pipes are no longer hidden, but are exposed and artfully displayed against the raw formwork pattern of a concrete wall with ingenious lighting. Rough Style presents buildings and spaces by architects and interior designers who work out expressive and most rigorous design concepts.

The uncompromising and exciting relationship in the encounter of innovative design schemes and raw unfinished states or traces of the past opens up new esthetic horizons, creating new standards of value.

By DAVID LAGERCR ANTZ Trade Paperback

By HARUKI MUR AK AMI Hardback

Wind / Pinball includes Haruki Murakami's the two short novels, Hear the Wind Sing and Pinball, which is available for the first time in English outside Japan. In Hear the Wind Sing, the narrator is home from college on his summer break. He spends his time in J's Bar with his friend the Rat, listening to the radio, thinking about writing and the women he has slept with, and pursuing a relationship with a girl with nine fingers.

Three years later, in Pinball, he has moved to Tokyo to work as a translator and live with indistinguishable twin girls, but the Rat has remained behind. The narrator finds himself haunted by memories of a past relationship but also by his short-lived obsession with playing pinball in J's Bar. This sends him on a quest to find the exact model of pinball machine he used to enjoy so much.

Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist return in the highly anticipated follow-up to Stieg Larsson’s Millennium series.

The call comes in late at night: a super hacker has gained access to critical, top secret U.S. intelligence. Blomkvist knows only one person who could crack the best security systems in the world. This case has all the hallmarks of Salander. She is accused of acting without reason, taking risks just because she can, but though they have lost touch, Blomkvist knows Lisbeth better than that. There must be something deeper at the heart of this - maybe even the scoop that Millennium magazine so desperately needs for its survival. A tangled web of truth that someone is prepared to kill to protect…

Passage Through Time

The result is an enlightening and practical guide to the most powerful tools of reasoning ever developed--tools that can easily be used to make better professional and personal decisions.

AUGUSTUS: FROM REVOLUTIONARY TO EMPEROR

By ADRIAN GOLDSWORTHY Paperback Caesar Augustus schemed and fought his way to absolute power. He became Rome's first emperor and ruled for forty-four years before dying peacefully in his bed. The system he created would endure for centuries.

Yet, despite his exceptional success, he is a difficult man to pin down, and far less well-known than his great-uncle, Julius Caesar. His story is not always edifying. However, the peace and stability he fostered were real, and under his rule the empire prospered. Adrian Goldsworthy examines the ancient sources to understand the man and his times.
