Stefania Rousselle

Award-winning journalist and documentary maker Stefania Rousselle had stopped believing in love. She had covered a series of bleak assignments, from terrorist attacks to the rise of the far right. Her relationship had fallen apart. Her faith in humanity was shaken. She decided to set out alone on a road trip across France, sleeping in strangers' homes, asking ordinary men and women the one question everyone wants to know the answer to: What is love? 
 
From a baker in Normandy to a shepherd in the Pyrénées, from a gay couple estranged from their families to a widow who found love again at 70, Amour is a treasure trove of poignant and profound stories about love, accompanied by beautiful full-colour photographs.

Amour

How the French Talk about Love

Iggy Pop

'Iggy... You can't help loving him.' David Bowie 
 
THESE ARE THE WORDS THAT CAME TO ME. NO MATTER HOW THEY GOT HERE, THEY DID THE FUCKING JOB. 
 
Iggy Pop hasn't left a mark on music; he's left it battered, bruised and covered in blood. 
 
Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010, here for the first time are his collected lyrics, complete with stunning original photographs, illustrations and Iggy and others' reflections on a genre-defining music career that spans five decades. 
 
The ultimate book for every rock and roll fan, to coincide with a new IGGY POP album, FREE, due on 6th September.
