The People's Spiral of US History
THE PEOPLE'S SPIRAL OF US HISTORY sees today's Trump/Bannon assault on democracy erupting from our genetic roots. We're born of the matriarchal Indigenous, whose Hodenosaunee Confederacy embodied humankind's quintessential democracy. We're fathered by uptight macho Puritans still self-defined as the Elect of God. The global empire they spawned rose, then fell through six shortening cycles, expiring 1992-2020 in a Trumpocalyptic Death Rattle. As Millennial/Zoomers transcend race, class/caste, sexual diversity, spiritual awakening, eco-terror...the American organism struggles to be reborn. Will we get there?
The Art of the Publisher
'All the books published by a certain publisher could be seen as links in a single chain' In this fascinating memoir and manifesto the author and publisher Roberto Calasso meditates on the art of book publishing. With his signature erudition and polemical flair, Calasso transcends Adelphi to look at the publishing industry as a whole, from the essential importance of graphics, jackets and cover flaps to the consequences of universal digitization. And he outlines what he describes as the 'most hazardous and ambitious' profile of what a publishing house can be: a book comprising many books, akin to that of other twentieth-century publishers, from Giulio Einaudi to Roger Straus, of whom the book offers brief portraits.

The Teenager Who Came to Tea
But the teenager didn't take just one Pringle. He took a selfie of himself pouring a whole tube of them into his mouth, before sending it to his best mate, along with the letters LOL! The bestselling authors of We're Going on a Bar Hunt and The Very Hungover Caterpillar bring you another hilarious parody of a much-loved children's book, this time turning the spotlight not only on modern teens, but firmly on their parents too. When the doorbell rings, just as Sophie and her Dad are sitting down for their tea, they're half-expecting a visit from a tiger, but what slouches in through their doorway is even more curious than that... a teenager. A perfect read for anyone who remembers the original, or has ever been a teenager or is the parent of a teenager today.
