Synopsis

One man. One cabin. A journey into the heart of nature—and the human soul.
In 1845, Henry David Thoreau left the bustling life of Concord, Massachusetts, to live in a small cabin beside Walden Pond. His purpose? To strip away the unnecessary and discover what is truly essential. Over two years, he documented his experiences—reflecting on nature, society, solitude, and the pursuit of a meaningful life.

Walden is more than a memoir; it is a profound meditation on independence, mindfulness, and harmony with the natural world. With lyrical prose and philosophical insight, Thoreau invites readers to question modern distractions, live deliberately, and reconnect with the beauty around them.

"One of the most important works of American literature."
– The New York Times

"A life-changing book—simple, wise, and enduring."
– The Guardian

    Samuel Taylor Coleridge was an English poet, literary critic, philosopher, and theologian who, with his friend William Wordsworth, was a founder of the Romantic Movement in England and a member of the Lake Poets. He also shared volumes and collaborated with Charles Lamb, Robert Southey, and Charles Lloyd. He wrote the poems The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Kubla Khan, as well as the major prose work Biographia Literaria. His critical work, especially on William Shakespeare, was highly influential, and he helped introduce German idealist philosophy to English-speaking culture. Coleridge coined many familiar words and phrases, including "suspension of disbelief". He had a major influence on Ralph Waldo Emerson and American transcendentalism.

    Empedocles - The Four Elements...

    Empedocles, a philosopher and poet from the ancient Greek city of Acragas (modern-day Agrigento, Sicily), lived during the 5th century BCE and is often regarded as one of the most original thinkers of his time. His life and works remain an intriguing fusion of science, mysticism, and poetry. Though much of what we know about Empedocles comes from fragments of his writings, his ideas have had a profound and lasting influence on philosophy, science, and even religion. 
      
    Empedocles is best known for his theory of the four elements—earth, air, fire, and water—which he posited as the fundamental building blocks of the universe. Unlike his predecessors, who sought to explain the world through a singular substance (such as water for Thales or air for Anaximenes), Empedocles argued that these four elements combined and separated through two cosmic forces: Love (Philia) and Strife (Neikos). Love brings the elements together, fostering harmony and unity, while Strife pulls them apart, creating division and chaos. This cyclical process of combination and separation underlies the ongoing changes in the cosmos. 
      
    In addition to his materialistic philosophy, Empedocles incorporated spiritual and mystical elements into his worldview. He believed in the transmigration of souls, suggesting that human beings and other living creatures are bound to an endless cycle of reincarnation. According to Empedocles, the soul is trapped in a cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, and it can achieve liberation through purification and virtuous living. His philosophical system thus integrated both natural and ethical concerns, urging individuals to live in harmony with the forces of the cosmos and pursue a life of virtue.

    Success in any sport begins with the right mindset. The journey to becoming a champion is not just about physical prowess but also about cultivating a mental framework that supports peak performance. A champion’s mindset is characterized by resilience, confidence, and an unwavering belief in their ability to succeed, regardless of the challenges they face. 
    Developing mental toughness is essential for overcoming setbacks and staying focused on long-term goals. Athletes with a strong mindset view obstacles not as barriers but as opportunities to grow. They embrace adversity as a chance to learn, adapt, and improve. This resilience is often built through consistent practice, reflection, and the willingness to confront uncomfortable situations. Champions do not fear failure; they use it as fuel to push forward. 
    Another critical aspect of the champion's mindset is confidence. Confidence is not arrogance but a deep trust in one’s preparation, skills, and ability to perform under pressure. This self-assurance often comes from thorough preparation and relentless dedication to honing one’s craft. Visualization techniques can also enhance confidence. Many top athletes use mental imagery to see themselves succeeding, whether it’s scoring a goal, hitting a perfect shot, or executing a flawless play. This mental rehearsal strengthens their belief in their ability to achieve their goals.

    ‘Helen Lederer is the third funniest woman in the world’ – Dawn French 
     
    What was it like as one of a handful of women at the heart of the right-on alternative comedy scene in the 1980s? Piece of cake? Bit of a laugh? Well, yes, and no. It had its ups – but also its downs. Helen Lederer was a regular on the stand-up circuit and new-wave sketch shows in the decade that launched the careers of today’s comedy household names and national treasures. 
     
    She shared stages with comedy pioneers like Ben Elton and John Hegley, and TV screens with Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders, Harry Enfield, and many others. From the iconic Absolutely Fabulous, to Bottom, Happy Families, Naked Video, French and Saunders and Girls on Top, it is difficult to think of a comedy show that Helen wasn’t a part of. From writing radio shows, to performing on the West End, her wry, witty perspectives, and her face, are unforgettable. So, plain sailing then? Well, not really. 
     
    Not That I’m Bitter, her powerful, frank, moving and characteristically funny memoir, reveals exactly how choppy the waters could be. Even in those ground-breaking, anti-Thatcher days, there was only room at top for so many women. For the rest, it was as much a struggle to be seen and heard in the world of comedy as in any boardroom or workplace, and just as difficult to avoid the predators. This is more than the story of one decade, however. The child of a Jewish-Czech wartime refugee, Helen Lederer was never part of the mainstream. How do you make humour from a lifelong battle against problems with weight and low-self-esteem? Where are the jokes in addictions to diet-pills and steroid injections? How can laughter defeat the darker moments, like a child’s anorexia or PTSD? How do you cope with constant self-sabotage when, despite enormous success, you still feel like a failure? Helen raises an important and open discussion around mental health alongside the evolved attitudes to women today. There’s something in Helen Lederer’s life-story that everyone, can relate to. 
     
    A genuinely funny memoir with lots of heart (and just the right amount of bitterness!), she pulls no punches, but every blow is wrapped in a laugh of recognition. Revealing, and moving, Not That I’m Bitter is sweet, sour, laugh out loud, and addictive.
