Thom Yorke - Radiohead & Trading Solo
Radiohead is a band with few peers - acclaimed, multi-platinum-selling, globe-trotting and a critics’ favourite. At the epicentre are the strangely compelling and yet unusual features of their mercurial lead singer, Thom Yorke, one of rock music’s most enigmatic personalities. This is the first ever biography of Yorke... The tale of the extraordinary drive, ambition and perfectionism of just one man. Thom Yorke’s personal story has never been told and this biography tells that tale with the help of in-depth interviews from former classmates, previous band members, producers and video makers and other key players in his life. This biography chronicles his remarkable life from the formative childhood experiences as a public schoolboy that first shaped his songs, through to each Radiohead album - from his perspective - as well as his solo work and expansive charitable and ecological campaigns. Thom Yorke: Radiohead & Trading Solo provides a fascinating portrait of a man who never settles for second best and decided that stardom, on its own, just wasn’t enough.

Anger Tree
There’s a tree that takes anger. Trevor Baker is a big, heavy, and very angry nine-year-old boy who is the neighborhood and school bully. One night after his mother takes away his television, he storms out of the house, shouting, punching, and kicking anything in his path. Unsatisfied after acting out his violence, he comes across the only force that can change him: a large old maple tree next to his house that’s tall enough to touch his bedroom window on the second floor. At first, Trevor challenges the tree. Then as his anger consumes him, he punches and kicks it, inflicting minor injuries (mostly to his pride), but it calms him down. Returning to his room, Trevor continues talking to himself, but is no longer shouting that nobody likes him, until he hears a voice. It is the tree that becomes his Anger Tree. The two become good friends, though only Trevor can hear its words, so he reads to the tree and it gives him advice, telling Trevor there’s a bigger world for him to explore. This inspirational story will bring out emotions in everyone, and it’s a book to be read over and over again.
The Genius of Place
The Genius of Place examines how, after the War of 1812, concerns about the scale of the nation resulted in a fundamental reorientation of American identity away from the Atlantic or global ties that held sway in the early republic and toward more localized forms of identification. Instead of addressing the sweep of the nation, American authors, artists, geographers, and politicians shifted from the larger reach of the globe to the more manageable scope of the local and sectional. Paradoxically, that local representation became the primary mode through which early Americans construed their emerging national identity. This newfound cultural obsession with locality impacted the literary consolidation and representation of key American imagined places - New England, the plantation, the West - in the decades between 1816 and 1836. Apap's examination of the intersections between local and national representations and exploration of the myths of space and place that shaped U.S. identity through the nineteenth century will appeal to a broad, interdisciplinary readership.

The Blueprints of Heaven

There needs to be a warning label on this book: When read, believed and acted upon, the contents of this book will radically change your life!” -James W. Goll, Director, Prayer Storm, USA. “A dynamic read that gives every believer a road map into maturity in this season.” -Shawn Bolz, Senior Pastor of Expression58, USA. “Filled with truths and revelations to arm and equip you.” -Che Ahn, Senior Pastor, HRock Church, USA.
