Limited Edition of One
The more I thought about it, the more I realised my career has been unusual. How did I manage to do everything wrong but still end up on the front cover of magazines, headlining world tours and achieving Top 5 albums? How did I attract such obsessive and fanatical fans, many of whom take everything I do or say very personally, which is simultaneously flattering but can also be tremendously frustrating? Even this I somehow cultivated without somehow meaning to. My accidental career. Limited Edition of One is unlike any other music book you will ever have read. Part the long-awaited memoir of Steven Wilson: whose celebrated band Porcupine Tree began as teenage fiction before unintentionally ev...
The Language of Disease
While the 'venereal peril' of nineteenth-century France was responsible for thousands of deaths, much attention has focused on the range of social anxieties with which it was associated, including degeneracy, depopulation, state surveillance and public morality. In this interdisciplinary study, Steven Wilson redirects attention onto the body as locus of syphilis. Combining a critical medical humanities approach with close readings of medical and literary texts, Wilson explores the ways in which canonical and non-canonical writers of the time found a language to represent the diseased body. Drawing on scholarship from gender studies, theology, pain studies and word/image relations, this engaging study investigates what the language used in nineteenth-century French literature tells us not only about the pathological function and lived experience of syphilis, but about the role played by literature in representing disease. Steven Wilson is Senior Lecturer in French Studies at Queen's University Belfast.

Mummy's Little Angels
A harrowing and inspiring memoir from a mother who lost her world. Losing a child is a mother's worst nightmare, but when you lose two children -- your innocent sons -- at the hands of the man they should have trusted the most, it's almost unimaginable. For Denise Williams this was her reality -- her very real nightmare. In her harrowing yet inspiring memoir, she tells her personal story of falling under the spell of her control-freak husband, suffering a decade of domestic violence, finding the strength to leave and then his despicable act of revenge. Denise endured agonising grief and heavy guilt, but she has slowly rebuilt her life without her beautiful boys -- learning to live, love and trust again. This is her heartbreaking memoir."

Steven Wilson On Track
Steven Wilson has been described by The Telegraph as 'probably the most successful British musician most people have never heard of'. His last three solo albums have made the top five in the UK, and he played to over a quarter of a million people on his last tour. A self-taught musician, songwriter and producer, Wilson grew up wanting to be a pop star. His early band No-Man signed for a major label but instead, he gained a dedicated following and chart success with his band Porcupine Tree, who eventually sold out the Royal Albert Hall in London in 2010 before a 12-year revival in 2022. Porcupine Tree are the subject of Nick Holmes' first book in this series. Wilson became known as the 'King of Prog' when some of his solo albums featured long-form songs, virtuosic musicians and complex concepts. But he has always enjoyed surprising his fans, and his solo work also includes jazz, indie rock, pop and electronic music. Whatever the genre, his music shares strong melodies, profound lyrics, thoughtful concepts and high production values. Including Wilson's latest album The Harmony Codex, this book is a forensic and illuminating analysis of Wilson's solo albums, EPs and bonus tracks.
