What am I detoxing? Daisy’s father, Nick. New Year is a time to diet. Mum is losing weight, and Dad is having a bicycle-clip clear out. My detox is my feckless, irresponsible former boyfriend. Alex and I will never work out if I can’t cut Nick out of my life. But how can I, when he’s Daisy’s dad?

  Orley Farm

  Anthony Trollope

  Orley Farm is Trollope at his best (as good as the Barsetshire series), which means some of the best characterizations in the English language. Trollope's people are real; the beleaguered Lady Mason, charged with forging a will; the aged lover Sir Peregrine Orme; Madeleine Stavely, deeply but practically in love; the shallow, fickle Sophia Furnival and others are 3-dimensional figures that live and breathe. His satire of the so-called "justice" system is the best kind of satire: he just describes the court proceedings as they really are. The result is as up-to-date as today's newspaper. (Introduction by Leonard Wilson)

  La femme. Le mari. L'enfant. Le chat. Le petit dejeuner. Le journal. L'auteur. La festival du filme. La critique. L'agent. Le mort. La naissance.
  A novel starring Jean-Luc Godard.
  It's Edinburgh Film Festival 2020 and critic Victor Eaves meets filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard in a novel blending mad vulgarity with slingshot satire. French Toast is a family farce and cinematic adventure starring a giant of the silver screen.
  "This is the story of my encounter with the venerable French-Swiss film director Jean-Luc Godard. In 2020, when he was 90 years old, Godard was invited to Edinburgh to speak at the Film Festival and I was chosen to meet him, as I was the only journalist in the city who both spoke French and had seen any of his films."
  VICTOR EAVES
  "Burnett's latest novel is both a scabrous satire and a rollicking caper, and comes stuffed with big ideas, memorable set pieces, clever in-jokes and caustic asides. Buried within the mayhem lurk shrewd insights into artistic judgment."
  THE HERALD
  "Peter Burnett is not in the business of fuelling hubris. He is concerned with questions about meaning, value and the nature of authenticity."

  From the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Couplehood and Familyhood: Insights on infants with “an out-loud laugh on every page” (San Francisco Chronicle).   Just as Paul Reiser and his wife had finally figured out how to successfully live together as two people, why would they want to jeopardize everything with a whole new human being? Sitting next to two exceptionally loud little ones on an airplane gives them some strong arguments against it, but if they don’t “take the next step,” who’s going to drive them around when they’re old and cranky? This classic New York Times bestseller from the actor and comedian contemplates the indecision, the anxiety, the exhaustion, and the hard-earned rewards of deciding to perpetuate the species.   “For the couple considering parenthood as well as for parents who are decades past their days of diaper changing . . . this book hits home and hits the funnybone.” —Chicago Tribune   “Reiser knows how to wrench a laugh from sticky situations, and in his life, since his firstborn arrived, every situation has been sticky or moist.” —Los Angeles Times   “This book won’t help you be a better parent, but it might put you in a better frame of mind about the whole experience.” —Detroit News
