  Fiesta explores the vibrant tapestry of human festivity, delving into the extraordinary lengths we undertake to express our cultures and commemorate life's milestones. From drunken pilgrimages to sacrificial funerals, national days to neo-pagan necromancy, festivals represent human culture at its most vivid and varied, and the resulting account is both a rich collection of travel writing and an anthropological exploration of the roles that festivals play in society.

  The only domestic bible you'll need. 
    
  There is nothing more satisfying than a beautifully organised home! say the #homeinspo influencers. 
  In an era of decluttering gurus, cleaning bloggers and aspirational pantries, Kerri Sackville has studied the evidence and declared, 'Nah, way too much trouble.' 
  Instead, she has embraced domestic imperfection and discovered the life-changing magic of letting your standards slip. 
  In this, her magnum opus, Kerri explains why cleanliness is not next to godliness, why decluttering is the enemy of joy and why no-one cares about your messy bedroom. 
  With affirmations for the mess-challenged (#DisarrayIsOkay!), cleaning hacks that actually work (*Don't Have Children), and recipes for people who hate washing up (Step One: download a meal delivery app), this book will inspire you to tear off those rubber gloves, put down the sponge and take a nap. 
  Whether you have surrendered in your war on dust or are still bravely fighting for ordered folds in fitted sheets, The Life-changing Magic of a Little Bit of Mess is a welcome dose of #inspo that transports you to the joyous world of imperfection. Because no one has ever looked back on their life and wished they'd spent more time scrubbing the floors.

  GLADIATOR 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY RIDLEY SCOTT 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Gladiator (2000), directed by Ridley Scott, is an epic historical drama set in ancient Rome. The film follows Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russell Crowe), a betrayed Roman general who is reduced to slavery and forced to fight as a gladiator. Seeking revenge for the brutal murder of his family and the wrongful death of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, Maximus rises through the gladiatorial ranks. The film explores themes of loyalty, vengeance, justice, and the corrupting influence of power. With intense action sequences and emotional depth, Gladiator is both a tale of personal redemption and a critique of political tyranny. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Joaquin Phoenix improvised his scream of ‘Am I not merciful?’ during a scene with Connie Nielsen, who was genuinely frightened by the unexpected outburst.” 
    
  “The score by Hans Zimmer for *Gladiator* became one of the bestselling movie soundtracks of all time.” 
    
  “The signet ring worn by Connie Nielsen’s character was a real antique discovered in a shop, dating back over 2,000 years.” 
    
  “Maximus’ tattoo, ‘SPQR,’ stands for ‘Senatus Populusque Romanus,’ meaning ‘The Senate and the Roman People,’ which was a famous slogan of Rome.” 
    
  “Russell Crowe's portrayal of Maximus in *Gladiator* is considered one of his best performances, earning him the Academy Award for Best Actor.”
