Gemma Correll

Come and join us in the magical world of Anxietyland, a theme park like no other. Here, there's so much to see and do: revel in the ups and downs of the Hormonal Rollercoaster, feel the twists and turns of the Overcaffeinated Teacups, and take a scenic ride on the Train of Overthinking to Comorbid Park. There's no better place for making new friends such as our fun mascot Scaredy Cat, enjoying world-class entertainment, from the Parade of the Therapists to the Well-Meaning Advice Jamboree, and making memories that you'll never forget - even if you want to! 
 
In Anxietyland cartoonist, writer, and long-time-anxious-person, Gemma Correll takes us on a riotous journey through her struggles with anxiety, to the desperate search for relief and finally to the realization that it really is possible to feel OK again. Because sometimes all that's left to do when you've tried every possible remedy you can imagine is laugh.

Jean-Marc Jancovici

Christophe Blain

THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER 
*A Financial Times Most Anticipated Book of 2024* 
 
“Can a graphic novel save the planet? Perhaps.” – Elizabeth Kolbert 
 
Is this the end of the world? Perhaps not. 
 
In this eye-opening, hopeful and hugely entertaining bestseller, a climate expert takes a leading graphic novelist on a journey to understand the profound changes that our planet is undergoing. The scientist, Jean-Marc Jancovici, walks us through just about everything: from the innermost workings of our minds to toothbrushes, office jobs, and oil; ancient history and modern geopolitics; economics and ecology; the unfolding climate crisis and its consequences for us all. As he describes the world we live in - a world whose future is deeply uncertain - the artist, Christophe Blain, listens and draws. 
 
Coming face to face with global warming, the unlikely duo - along with Mother Nature, Pop Eye and Jiminy Cricket, among others - create a picture of what the solution to our predicament actually looks like. Yes, we have a fossil-fuel problem, but simply switching to renewable energy won’t fix it. We can and must rethink everything: our energy supply, our economies and our whole world. They leave us with an inspiring vision of the future in which food, education, housing, transport and communities - in other words, all of us - work together and, with a few technological fixes, succeed in creating a world without end. 
 
“Masterful and unforgettable... A testament to the power of the graphic novel" - Marjane Satrapi, author of Persepolis 
 
“READ. THIS. BOOK.”- Eliza Griswold, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist

World Without End

Elizabeth-Jane Burnett

A moving tale of resistance and renewal, from the acclaimed author of Twelve Words for Moss 
 
Two friends, Kenjo and Leah, swoosh through the lush forests at the edge of the village in Kenya that they call home. Imitating hornbills and lying on the mossy boulders that line the river, the young girls are watched over by a canopy of ancient trees, whose roots reach into the past, present and future. 
 
But this glittering countryside is quickly becoming a haunting. As the armed rebellion against the British colonial regime intensifies, the forest is subsumed in the terrible conflict, disturbing the profound balance of life it nourishes and knowledge it preserves. Forced from their homes, the friends are separated, their lives forever twisted and buckled by the violent rupture. 
 
This tale of courage, survival and restoration captures the healing – and destructive – power of time, and unearths the hidden traces it leaves behind.

A Novel

Leanne Shapton

A tennis prodigy collapses after his wins, crediting them to an invisible, not entirely benevolent presence. A series of ghosts appear at the foot of their former beds, some distraught, some fascinated at the sight of their unfamiliar occupants. A woman returns from a visit to Alcatraz with an uncomfortable feeling. The spirit of a prisoner has attached himself to you, a friend tells her. He sensed the empathy you had for those men. 
 
In more than two dozen stories and vignettes accompanied by an evocative curiosity cabinet of artifacts and images--found photographs, original paintings, Instagram-style portraits-Guestbook presents the glimmering, unsettling evidence that marks our paths through life. Shapton explores the earthly and sublime experience of existence by expanding the traditional ghost story into a new constellation of words and images.
