The Ice Walk
The Ice Walk
£12.99
Helen Womack has lived in Russia under three Kremlin leaders. In all that time, what has really changed & what remains essentially the same? Better equipped than most Westerners to answer that question, Helen draws not only on her own experience but on the eyewitness accounts of ordinary Russians, who struggled to survive & make sense of the historic changes in their country from 1985 to 2012. Helen saw it all: Gorbachev`s perestroika, Yeltsin`s reforms & Putin`s return to order. She was in Russia long enough to grasp the recurring pattern of its politics. Like the weather, the political climate is cyclical. The thaw offers hope but comes with dangers; the freeze brings stability but also a shut-down. Winter is long & miserable but in the cold & dark lives the seed of spring. ...

The Iceberg: A Memoir
The Iceberg: A Memoir
£8.99
” In 2008 the art critic Tom Lubbock was diagnosed with a brain tumour. The tumour was located in the area controlling speech & language, & would eventually rob him of the ability to speak. He died early in 2011. Marion Coutts was his wife. In short bursts of beautiful, textured prose, Coutts describes the eighteen months leading up to her partner`s death. This book is an account of a family unit, man, woman, young child, under assault, & how the three of them fought to keep it intact. Written with extraordinary narrative force & power, The Iceberg is almost shocking in its rawness. It charts the deterioration of Tom`s speech even as it records the developing language of his child. Fury, selfishness, grief, indignity & impotence are all examined & brought to light. Yet out of this comes a rare story about belonging, an `adventure of being & dying`. This book is a celebration of each other, friends, family, art, work, love & language.” ...

The Idea of India
The Idea Of India
£11.99
This is one of the key books on modern India, acclaimed as the definitive account, & now republished with a new introduction. ” The Idea of India” was originally published to mark the 50th anniversary of India`s independence & has since established itself as a uniquely valuable & authoritative book on a key subject. At the heart of India`s self-image since independence has been `the idea of India`
- modern, technocratic, egalitarian, secular
- but the tensions between the idea & the reality have become almost intolerable. This book shows how. Reviews: ”A splendid
- & timely
- book... Spirited, combative & insight-filled... Khilnani has woven a rich analysis of contemporary India & its evolution since indepence. I am inclined to agree with [him] on the robustness & staying power of the secular idea of India”. (Amartya Sen, ” Times Literary Supplement”). ”A masterful rebuttal to all cultural romantics & religious chauvinists...[A] splendid book about definitions of the Indian nation”. (Ian Buruma, ” New York Review of Books”). ” Especially brilliant is Khilnani`s attempt to understand the changing nature of India by studying its urban constructs”. (Chitra Divakaruni, ” Los Angeles Times”).

The Idea of North
The Idea Of North
£16.95
As with the compass needle, so people have always been most powerfully attracted northwards; everyone carries within them their own concept of north. The Idea of North is a study, ranging widely in time & place, of some of the ways in which these ideas have found expression. Peter Davidson explores the topography of north as represented in images & literature, taking in Netherlandic winter paintings of the Renaissance, German Romantic landscapes, Scandinavian Biedermeyer & twentieth-century topographical painting & printmaking. He examines a bewildering diversity of mythologies & imaginings of north, including The Snow Queen; Scandinavian Sagas; ghost-stories; Moomintrolls, Arctic exploration; the fictitious snowy kingdoms of Zembla & Naboland; Nabokov's nostalgias; Baltic midsummer; rooms in winter light; compasses & star-stones; hoar-frost; &, ice & glass. The book also traces a northward journey, describing northern rural Engl&, industrial sites, & the long emptiness of the borders, Scotland & the Highlands. He looks at the region far north of Scotl&, then moves to the Northern Netherlands & Scandinavia to explore their identifiable northernness. The last visited place is Icel&, identified by W.H. Auden & Louis Mc Neice in 1936 as furthest, most remote, most distant, most northerly'. An engaging meditation on solitude, absence & stillness, The Idea of North shows north to be a goal rather than a destination, a place of revelation that is always somewhere ultimate & austere. ...
