A milestone in the history of popular theology, ' The Screwtape Letters' is an iconic classic on spiritual warfare & the power of the devil. This profound & striking narrative takes the form of a series of letters from Screwtape, a devil high in the Infernal Civil Service, to his nephew Wormwood, a junior colleague engaged in his first mission on earth trying to secure the damnation of a young man who has just become a Christian.

Tolkien, ' The Screwtape Letters' is a timeless classic on spiritual conflict & the invisible realities which are part of our religious experience. ...

Noel Fielding's book channels the creative influences of Henri Rousseau, Roy Lichtenstein & Salvador Dali, through the comedian's strange & singular, not to say surreal mind. Hilarious & beautifully produced, the book is a visual feast which will delight & entertain Noel's millions of fans. " Growing up in the jungles of India there was no need for drawing or painting. I would sometimes arrange ants into primitive still lives or scratch out portraits onto the trunks of trees. Things changed when I was 11, a lame tiger who owned a stationery shop gave me the keys to his stock room, I would roll around in acrylic & oil pastels in reverie, licking canvases & tucking coloured pencils into my wild hair. It was here I learned how to draw & paint well enough to be accepted into Croyden Art College. There, Dexter Dalwood (Turner Prize nominee) taught me & after two years under his supreme tutelage & much hard graft he adviced me to become a comedian." Noel Fielding ...

A startling new book, his most personal to date, from Philip Hoare, winner of the 2009 Samuel Johnson Prize for ' Leviathan'. The sea surrounds us. It gives us life, provides us with the air we breathe & the food we eat. It is ceaseless change & constant presence. It covers two-thirds of our planet. Yet caught up in our everyday lives, we barely notice it. In ' The Sea Inside', Philip Hoare sets out to rediscover the sea, its islands, birds & beasts. He begins on the south coast where he grew up, a place of almost monastic escape. From there he travels to the other side of the world
- the Azores, Sri Lanka, New Zealand
- in search of encounters with animals & people. Navigating between human & natural history, he asks what these stories mean for us now. Along the way we meet an amazing cast; from scientists to tattooed warriors; from ravens to whales & bizarre creatures that may, or may not, be extinct. Part memoir, part fantastical travelogue, ' The Sea Inside' takes us on an astounding journey of discovery.

Product Description

One house, two women, a lifetime of secrets...

Following the death of her mother, Becky begins the sad task of sorting through her empty flat. Starting with the letters piling up on the doormat, she finds an envelope post-marked from Cornwall. In it is a letter that will change her life forever. A desperate plea from her mother's elderly cousin, Olivia, to help save her beloved home.

Becky arrives at Chynalls to find the beautiful old house crumbling into the ground, & Olivia stuck in hospital with no hope of being discharged until her home is made habitable.

Though daunted by the enormity of the task, Becky sets to work. But as she peels back the layers of paint, plaster & grime, she uncovers secrets buried for more than seventy years. Secrets from a time when Olivia was young, the Second World War was raging, & danger & romance lurked round every corner...
