  Saki's Cats

  Saki's Cats rounds up the tales about cats, big and small, by the undisputed master of the short story.
  'Tobermory', one of Saki's most famous pieces, demonstrates the danger that would ensue from granting cats the power of speech – animals have long lurked unseen, eavesdropping, in the background. The tom in 'The Philanthropist and the Happy Cat' is the only one to enjoy his meal, as is the leopard in 'The Guests'. In 'The Penance' and 'Mrs Packletide's Tiger', hunters who put cats in their sights are humiliated and blackmailed. 'The Achievement of the Cat' considers how cats have come to be served by the human race.
  In addition to the short stories about cats, Saki's Cats also collects Saki's juvenile letters to his sister Ethel about the tiger cub he adopted while living in Burma.
  The feisty felines of these tales are the only clear winners, and, with a characteristic smirk and dash of his pen, it is Edwardian Society that Saki sends slinking off, tail between its legs.

  Wayfarer: Love loss and life on...

  Shortlisted for the Edward Stanford Travel Book of the Year 2025A Financial Times best summer travel book of 2024Travel Book of the Year at the Inspire Global Media Awards 
  'A powerfully delicate book of love, loss and discovery, along paths of emotional understanding and physical wonder.' Raynor Winn 
  On an assignment to walk the most famous pilgrimage in the world – the Camino de Santiago, in northern Spain – Phoebe Smith somehow lost her way. 
  Having spent a lifetime exploring unfamiliar places, she quit her dream job, ended her long-term relationship and headed home to North Wales to discover the point to… everything. 
  In her search for answers she found herself – quite by accident – walking some of Britain’s oldest pilgrim paths. And by following these old ways, she ended up confronting past traumas that she thought she had laid to rest. 
  But while it follows holy trails, this is not a book about religion. From losing her mother as a teenager to surviving toxic relationships, Phoebe offers an unflinchingly honest look at her battle with an eating disorder, depression, and the pitfalls of newfound singledom. 
  Skilfully weaving together Phoebe’s own story with those of countless travellers past and present, Wayfarer reveals how nature and place can heal past wounds, offering a pathway to salvation she’d never thought existed. 
  In this award-winning autobiography, Smith takes us on a journey through Europe, her words painting vivid images of the walks and hikes she undertakes. Her memoirs are not just travelogues, but essays of self-discovery and healing. 
  For fans of Raynor Winn (Landlines), Stephen Neale (The South West Coast Path), Will Millard (The Way of the Hermit), Steve Davison (15 Short Walks on Dartmoor North), and Daniel Start (Wild Guide Lake District and Yorkshire Dales).
