Gemma is ready for a change of scene. Her self-imposed exile in America worked for a while, helped her to forget, but now she is returning to Engl&, the country of her birth, for a fresh start. A new job, a new house, a new life beckons, but there are old problems too, the same painful, raw problems she ran away from ten years ago.

Daisy stole Oliver from her. Her beloved sister just walked off with the love of her life. They never talked about it. They haven't talked about anything since. Not even the death of their father, Bertie, & the subsequent suicide of their beautiful mother Estella.

As Gemma & Daisy try tentatively to rebuild the closeness they shared as children, they must begin to confront the reasons why their mother killed herself, & to trace her life story back to the 1950s
- to more innocent times.

This is the story of two pairs of sisters
- Gemma & Daisy, their mother Estella & her sister Shirley. It tells of love & passion, jealousy & secrets, & follows a family mystery back to its origins in the 1950s, but whose consequences stretch into the present & beyond.

From the pleasure of escaping our daily lives & finding laughter, to musing on what makes the world go round & finding solace, poets of all ages have helped us find a way there. In 1996 BBC Bookworm held a poll to find 100 of the nation's best-loved poems. They were published in the Nation's Favourite Poems & featured classics, including Tennyson's ' The Lady of Shalott' & Wordsworth's ' The Daffodils', alongside popular contemporary poems, such as Jenny Joseph's ' Warning' & W.H Auden's ' Stop All the Clocks'. This collection continues to delight & move us with its eclectic mix of favourite poems. Yet, while it contains so many of our best-loved poems, there are a wealth of outstanding poems across the ages that we were unable to include in the collection. To celebrate the richness of poetry in our lives, BBC Books is holding another poll to find more of the nation's favourite poems. Perhaps the anthology will include Byron's poignant, ' So we'll go no more a roving', other outstanding pieces by Auden, Lawrence, Wordsworth & Shakespeare or Edwin Muir's ' The Confirmation'. The anthology will be published this autumn. In June the nation will be able to have its say. ...

More Letters From A Nut: With An Introduction By Jerry Seinfeld

Ted L Nancy continues his gently surreal correspondence with the great and the good. His hilarious and bizarre letters - as before with unusual queries, complaints and requests - not only manage to fool many recipients into starchy and strait-laced answers but in some cases elicit equally hilarious, tongue-in-cheek replies. Ted writes to ask a certain soft drink giant if it's okay to sell his own 'Kiet Doke' brand of soda (in case it harms their sales) and contacts a restaurant to ask if he can bring his own waiter, as 'he brings me my soup hot and my salad with just the right amount of dressing'. That Ted can bring out people's welcoming and hospitable side with a letter detailing the problem of the permanent squeak he suffers when walking is a tribute to his unique style. Innocent as
it is at turns outrageous, More Letters from a Nut is totally enthralling and painfully funny: 'Dear Mayor's Office: I want to give back to the community. I want to stage the play 'Romeo and Juliet' using otter. There will be no racy scenes but some holding. Otters will play Romeo, Juliet, and the others. We will bring the otters out at the intermission to pet. These otters are something to see. They have performed this play many times with only one biting incident.'
