    An elegant new edition of a classic book from one of the twentieth century's greatest garden writers.
    This landmark work on creating a garden was first published in 1956 and has rarely been out of print since. We Made a Garden is the story of how Margery Fish, one of the leading British gardeners of the mid-20th century, and her husband Walter transformed an acre of wilderness into a stunning cottage garden, still open to the public at East Lambrook Manor, Somerset, England. Quirky and readable, this book details her creation of a world-renowned cottage garden, as well as her battles with Walter in the process, who preferred the standard suburban approach.
    In this beautiful and timeless work, she recounts the trials and tribulations, the successes and failures of her venture with ease and humour. Topics covered are colourful and diverse, ranging from the most suitable hyssop for the terraced garden through composting, hedges and making paths to the best time to lift and replant tulip bulbs. This book has been hailed as everything from a blueprint for the creation of a modern cottage garden to a feminist manifesto, and the author's practical knowledge, imaginative ideas and general good sense will encourage and inspire gardeners everywhere.

    A Survival Guide for People Who Overthink Breathing 
    Do you lie awake at night replaying that weird thing you said in 2014? Do you spend more time analyzing text messages than actually responding to them? Do you sometimes mistake mild discomfort for a full-blown medical emergency? 
    Congratulations! You have anxiety. 
    "Everything Is Fine (Unless It’s Not, In Which Case, Panic)" is the book for anyone who has ever: 
    ✅ Imagined an entire argument that never actually happened. 
    ✅ Thought someone hated them because they used a period instead of an exclamation mark. 
    ✅ Googled their symptoms and immediately planned their funeral. 
    This is not a self-help book. This is a validation of your deeply chaotic existence—a hilarious, biting, and painfully relatable deep dive into the spirals, overthinking, and worst-case-scenario fantasies that come with having a brain that refuses to chill. 
    Inside, you’ll find: 
    🔹 The Social Anxiety Checklist™ (includes "Laughed weirdly and immediately regretted it") 
    🔹 A guide to Overanalyzing Texts (Spoiler: Just Stop) 
    🔹 A Flowchart for Deciding Whether to Send That Apology Text (Spoiler: Don’t Do It) 
    🔹 Proof that your boss’s "Good morning" email is not a secret plan to fire you 
    If you’ve ever wished you could return your brain for one that doesn’t assume the worst at all times, this book is for you. Laugh through the panic—because if you can’t fix it, you might as well make fun of it.

    Winter Notes on Summer Impressions

    "Try and set yourself the task not to think of a white bear, and the cursed thing comes to mind every minute."
    
    Written in 1862, Winter Notes on Summer Impressions is a collection of essays, reflections and observations written by Fyodor Dostoevsky while travelling in western Europe.
    
    A mixture of travelogue and sharply observed social commentary, the author critiques Western civilisation through a uniquely Russian lens, using his impressions of France, England, Germany and other countries to reflect on the differences between Western society and Russia, and in doing so, he reveals a lot about his own philosophical and political views. Many of the themes addressed here went on to become important in his later work, such as Notes from Underground and The Brothers Karamazov, and his scepticism about Western progress and his emphasis on spiritual renewal became central to his world-view.
    Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian novelist, journalist, and short-story writer renowned for his profound explorations of psychology, morality, and the human condition. Born in Moscow, his tumultuous life was marked by early literary success and followed by arrest and exile due to his radical political activities. He is widely regarded as one of the world's finest novelists, penning classics that include Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Demons, and The Brothers Karamazov. His work has had an immense influence on 20th-century fiction and his ideas have profoundly shaped literary modernism, existentialism, and various schools of psychology, theology, and literary criticism.
