Summary

Over the course of a single day, ordinary moments awaken memories, desires, regrets, and hidden connections between lives.

Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway follows Clarissa Dalloway as she prepares for a party in London while reflecting on her past, relationships, choices, and place in society.

Moving fluidly between different characters and their inner thoughts, Woolf reveals how memories and emotions connect seemingly separate lives. The novel explores identity, aging, love, social expectations, trauma, time, and the contrast between outward appearances and private experience.

A landmark of modernist literature, Mrs Dalloway demonstrates Woolf's extraordinary ability to transform an ordinary day into a profound exploration of human consciousness.

Step into Clarissa Dalloway's London and experience Virginia Woolf's unforgettable meditation on time, memory, identity, and human connection.

    Yarns on a life lived at a million miles, from beloved broadcaster, podcaster and go-getter Brodie Kane  
  
'A romp through glorious (and gross) adventures, Brodie writes as if you're her best friend. By the end, you'll really wish you were.' - Kerre Woodham 
First up: this is absolutely not a guide to life. I've done some impressive stuff, but I've also slept on the floor of an old Greek man's house and lost my dignity in the Brunei jungle. I say yes to everything this life has to offer - I'm from the 'women can have it all' club - and, boy, have I got the stories to show for it. 
From surf-lifesaving to a hungover Army deployment, being broke with a gum infection in Europe, spooning Richie McCaw on a mountain, improvising make-up for Paul Holmes, running my first ultra-marathon and reinventing myself after redundancy: every wild, brilliant and hilarious experience has taught me something new. Whether it's how not to care about being judged, how to fake it till you make it, how to throw yourself into the unknown or how to push through the pit of despair, I've come to love that we are all works in progress. If I fail from time to time, that's okay too.  
Open the book of this open book (me). I want to show you the raw, the real and the vulnerable of a full-volume life and how the greatest moments - or at the very least the greatest yarns - come about by just giving it a crack.

    'The pages sing in this beautiful book.' Bono 
'Moving and lyrical, The Forest is the Path is an imaginative and deeply personal journey of self-discovery.'The Irish Times 
‘[An] astoundingly poetic book’ Pandora Sykes 
You’re falling through time so all I can do is fall with you. 
The numbness had set in long before I sat at your bedside. But even with senses impaired as the flight touches down at Belfast City I can somehow still feel the screeching of wheels on tarmac scorching something deep into me.  
Gary Lightbody's phenomenal companion to Snow Patrol's No.1 Album of the same name is a remarkable work of narrative writing. 
The Forest is the Path explores some of the main themes of the album; time, home, love, death and life, and serves as a prequel to the record, telling the story of his dad Jack's death. It tracks the journey he went on – a journey whose end seemed to unlock a part of Gary that had been dormant until he started to write songs again. 
This is the book that emerged from that time.  
'Raw…and extraordinary.' Nihal Arthanayake 
'Lightbody's propose is fluid and unflinchingly honest' The Irish Times 
'Absolutely beautiful.' Audrey Carville 
‘I have both cried and laughed reading this book. It is beautiful.’ Muireann O'Connell 
In this remarkable non-fiction autobiography, Lightbody turns music into memoirs, tracing grief and love with the precision of a biography and the pulse of performing. Rooted in arts and entertainment, it stands as a Sunday Times bestselling book for artists who know how deeply a song can hold a life.

    Broadway Butterfly - Vivian...

    Indiana-born Vivian Gordon fluttered to New York in 1920 looking for fame and fortune. Before long, the flame-haired chorus girl parlayed her youth, beauty, and ambition into more profitable means as a tough and glamorous symbol of Prohibition-era excess. She was a speakeasy owner, blackmailer, high-end escort, extortionist, racketeer, and con woman. But given her dangerously intimate associations, Vivian was also a woman who knew too much and who rightfully feared for her life. 
 
 
  
On February 26, 1931, Vivian's bludgeoned and garroted body was found dumped in Van Cortland Park in the Bronx. Now, in the first in-depth biography of its kind, Pulitzer Prize and Emmy Award-winning journalist Anthony M. DeStefano unravels her tumultuous life and the headline-making murder that became an obsession for many. 
 
 
  
The evidence Vivian left behind was damning: a diary with more than three-hundred names implicating powerful officials, philanthropists, businessmen, and every major gangland figure in collusion and corruption. The investigation eventually resulted in the career-ending of James "Jimmy" Walker, disgraced mayor of New York City. Broadway Butterfly finally finds a place in history for Vivian, a woman with a rare legacy in gangster lore, whose demise was as tragically inevitable as the brutality of the city's demimonde during Prohibition.

    A gripping true story of the WWII Guadalcanal Campaign—told with no-holds-barred honesty and humor by a Marine who was there. In August of 1942, Allied forces led by U.S. Marines came ashore on Guadalcanal, launching the first major land offensive against Imperial Japan. M. Sgt. Ore J. Marion of L Company, 3rd Battalion, 5th Regiment was among them. Here, Marion and other men of L-3-5 share a personal account of their experiences over the course of this grueling and protracted campaign.  The stories contained in these pages are harrowing, profane, heartbreaking, irreverent, and deeply human. As with many personal accounts, some memories recorded here are at odds with the official accounts in Washington’s archives. Rather than presenting a clean and consistent narrative, On the Canal reflects the messy business of warfare and human memory.

    Katapult is a fast-moving, cautionary tale about Kat, the daughter of a wealthy Canadian businessman whose involvement in the Iran Contra Affair shapes her life in ways she can’t escape. By the time she’s thirty-five, she’s lived nine different lives, taken five names, and seen the darkest sides of humanity. Her story spans the highs of wealth, the dangers of arms deals, and the complex world of being an escort. Along the way, she struggles with addiction, abuse, love, and loss. In the end, she turns to Orthodox Judaism, searching for meaning in a life defined by chaos. 
Through it all, Kat’s resilience and determination to survive paint a portrait of a woman who refuses to let life's harshest lessons define her. Lucky to be alive, this is her raw, unflinching story—a cautionary tale about the cost of recklessness, the search for meaning, and the struggle to find oneself. 
Once you start, you can't stop reading, so clear your schedule before opening! The plot propels forward at high speed, while the voices of different characters flesh out the complexities underlying this story of a life far off the beaten path. Tamara Williamson does it again! Patty Ewaschuck 
I’ve read the book and wow! What a cautionary tale about the importance of trusting your gut. Audrey McClellan
