The complete memoirs of Neil Simon, the greatest-and most successful-American playwright of all time, the author of such iconic works as Lost in Yonkers, The Odd Couple, Biloxi Blues, and The Goodbye Girl, now with an insightful Introduction by Nathan Lane. This omnibus edition combines Neil Simon's two memoirs, Rewrites and The Play Goes On, into one volume that spans his extraordinary five-decade career in theater, television, and film. Rewrites takes Simon through his first love, his first play, and his first brush with failure. There is the humor of growing up in Washington Heights (the inspiration for his play Brighton Beach Memoirs) where, despite his parents' rocky marriage and many separations, he learned to see the funny side of family drama, as when his mother thought she saw a body on the floor in their apartment-and it turned out to be the clothes his father discarded in the hallway after a night of carousing. He describes his marriage to his beloved wife, Joan, and writes lucidly about the pain of losing her to cancer. The Play Goes On adds to his life's story, as he wins the Pulitzer Prize and reflects with humor and insight on his tumultuous life and meteoric career. "Neil Simon's terrific memoirs are worth revisiting" (New York Post). Now, with the whole story in one place, he traces the history of modern entertainment over the last fifty years as seen through the eyes of a man who started life the son of a garment salesman and became the greatest-and most successful-American playwright of all time.

"Maria Semple is a treasure." —Los Angeles Times The New York Times bestselling author of Where'd You Go, Bernadette returns to form in her most exuberant and life-affirming novel yet with the story of one woman’s cheerful determination to live a life of the mind only to have the heart force its way in. Adora Hazzard has it all figured out. A Stoic philosopher and divorcée, she lives a contented life on New York City’s Upper West Side. Having discovered that the secret to happiness is to desire only what you have, she’s applied this insight to blissful effect: relishing her teenage daughter, the freedom of being solo, and her job as a moral tutor for the twin boys of an old-money family. She’s even assembled a "coven"—like-minded women who live on the same floor in the legendary Ansonia—and is making active efforts to grow its membership. Adora’s carefully curated life is humming along brilliantly until a chance meeting with a handsome stranger. Soon, her ordered world is upended by black-market art deals, secret rendezvous, and international intrigue . . . and her past—which she has worked so hard to bury—lands like a bomb in her present. Inflamed by unquenchable desire, Adora finds herself a woman wanting more: and she’ll risk everything to get it. Adora Hazzard’s journey of self-discovery will grip you from the start. Romantic, hilarious, intelligent, and bursting with the stuff of life, Go Gentle is a thrilling story of one woman’s mid-life transformation, cementing Maria Semple in the pantheon of our most exciting and important contemporary writers.

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES AND THE ATLANTIC’S TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR ONE OF BARACK OBAMA’S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR Through the “revelatory and gut-wrenching” (Associated Press) stories of five Atlanta families, this landmark work of journalism exposes a new and troubling trend—the dramatic rise of the working homeless in cities across America. “An exceptional feat of reporting, full of an immediacy that calls to mind Adrian Nicole LeBlanc’s Random Family and Matthew Desmond’s Evicted.”—The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice) WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE FINALIST FOR THE ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL AND THE BERNSTEIN AWARD A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: NPR, The Washington Post, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Elle, New America, BookPage, Shelf Awareness The working homeless. In a country where hard work and determination are supposed to lead to success, there is something scandalous about this phrase. But skyrocketing rents, low wages, and a lack of tenant rights have produced a startling phenomenon: People with full-time jobs cannot keep a roof over their head, especially in America’s booming cities, where rapid growth is leading to catastrophic displacement. These families are being forced into homelessness not by a failing economy but a thriving one. In this gripping and deeply reported book, Brian Goldstone plunges readers into the lives of five Atlanta families struggling to remain housed in a gentrifying, increasingly unequal city. Maurice and Natalia make a fresh start in the country’s “Black Mecca” after being priced out of DC. Kara dreams of starting her own cleaning business while mopping floors at a public hospital. Britt scores a coveted housing voucher. Michelle is in school to become a social worker. Celeste toils at her warehouse job while undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer. Each of them aspires to provide a decent life for their children—and each of them, one by one, joins the ranks of the nation’s working homeless. Through intimate, novelistic portraits, Goldstone reveals the human cost of this crisis, following parents and their kids as they go to sleep in cars, or in squalid extended-stay hotel rooms, and head out to their jobs and schools the next morning. These are the nation’s hidden homeless—omitted from official statistics, and proof that overflowing shelters and street encampments are only the most visible manifestation of a far more pervasive problem. By turns heartbreaking and urgent, There Is No Place for Us illuminates the true magnitude, causes, and consequences of the new American homelessness—and shows that it won’t be solved until housing is treated as a fundamental human right.

A powerfully poignant tale of one of the most turbulent moments in Scotland's history: the North Berwick Witch Trials. IT'S THE 4TH OF DECEMBER 1591. On this, the last night of her life, in a prison cell several floors below Edinburgh's High Street, convicted witch Geillis Duncan receives a mysterious visitor - Iris, who says she comes from a future where women are still persecuted for who they are and what they believe. As the hours pass and dawn approaches, Geillis recounts the circumstances of her arrest, brutal torture, confession and trial, while Iris offers support, solace - and the tantalising prospect of escape. Hex is a visceral depiction of what happens when a society is consumed by fear and superstition, exploring how the terrible force of a king's violent crusade against ordinary women can still be felt, right up to the present day. 'This series has already produced two works of note and distinction. It raises the question - if a country cannot re-tell its history, will it be stuck forever in aspic and condemned to be nothing more than a shortbread tin illustration? Hex and Rizzio are showing the way towards a reckoning, and about time too' - Stuart Kelly, Scotland on Sunday

*Kazuo Ishiguro's new novel Klara and the Sun is now available* In Nocturnes, Kazuo Ishiguro explores ideas of love, music and the passing of time. From the piazzas of Italy to the 'hush-hush floor' of an exclusive Hollywood Hotel, the characters we encounter range from young dreamers to cafe musicians to faded stars, all of them at some moment of reckoning. Gentle, intimate and witty, this quintet is marked by a haunting theme - the struggle to keep alive a sense of life's romance, even as one gets older, relationships founder and youthful hopes recede. 'Each of these stories is heartbreaking in its own way, but some have moments of great comedy, and they all require a level of attention that, typically, Ishiguro's writing rewards.' Observer '[They] come up on you quietly, but then haunt you for days . These little pieces could only be the work of a great composer.' Evening Standard 'A fine and moving collection of stories, displaying his unique combination of the sad, the stoic and the consoling. It's about failure, but it dignifies failure, and with it, the human condition.' Margaret Drabble, Guardian

When a disastrous Valentine’s Day leads to an unexpected encounter with a sexy stranger, it ended with the hottest night of my life. I didn’t think I would ever see Whip again. Imagine my surprise when one of my sixth-grade students has a medical emergency and it’s Whip who shows up, looking hot as hell, to save the day. I should be embarrassed at how we left things, but instead I’m furious he doesn’t seem to remember me. So I scrape my pride off the floor, lift my chin, and pretend there’s nothing between us.

Nothing has ever felt so right, but my guarded heart won’t let me believe in happily ever after with a man like him. Opening up to Whip may be the hardest thing I’ve ever done, and every time we agree to one last time, we both know it’s a lie. How many times can we keep telling ourselves just this once before we realize that, when it comes to love, once is never enough?

Mr Darcy's Reluctant Wife is an original work by the author, and a variation on the story of Pride & Prejudice. Mr Darcy is not getting any younger, and at eight and twenty years old, he decided it was high time he began looking for a wife in earnest. The day after the Meryton dance, Fitzwilliam Darcy sets out on a morning ride. When he comes across a young woman lying on the forest floor, he assumes she has either fainted or suffered an injury. Concerned there is no one with her, he dismounts and goes to offer her his assistance. As he bends over her still form, he is surprised to see it is none other than Miss Elizabeth Bennet. When the sun rays that were warming her face disappear, Elizabeth slowly opens her eyes, and is shocked to find a man's face only inches from her own. Scared but defiant, she delivered a sharp set down and struggles to her feet. But when she realises who it is, and why he is there, she realises she owes him an apology. Over the next few days, their friendship blossoms, and Mr Darcy finds he is looking forward to their meeting more and more. Then, quite by accident, he learns that Mr William Collins intends to make Elizabeth an offer of marriage. Seeing his chance of happiness slipping away, Mr Darcy decides he must give Elizabeth an alternative bridegroom, namely, himself. But while Mr Darcy is in London seeking a special license from his uncle, the bishop, Elizabeth meets George Wickham. He is handsome and charming, and flatters all the ladies, but once he discovers who Elizabeth is engaged to, he singles her out with one purpose in mind. He proceeds to regale her with his tales of woe, blaming Mr Darcy for all the ills that have befallen him. With no Mr Darcy to contradict Wickham's lies, Elizabeth is now desperate to break their engagement. But there is no going back for Mr Darcy. Elizabeth agreed to marry him and marry him she will. Is there any way they can be happy now Elizabeth is convinced Mr Darcy is not to be trusted? Can Mr Darcy convince Elizabeth that he is the one wronged by George Wickham? And what happens when Mr Wickham turns up at Pemberley late one night?

Sometimes the grass is not greener on the other side, it's darker. University was my fresh start. A life away from him. It wasn't enough. I couldn't escape the memories. My demons are not ones you can see, no they're well hidden. They stay in the dark, haunting every second of my being. I fight every day to be better, to not give in. I'm back now. I'm better now. I can handle being back here in the club. I can handle being around him again. At least that's what I thought. All my well laid plans go up in flames when my eyes land on him. Dean, my brother's best friend. Dean, the one man I've always loved. Dean Four years ago, I did the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I walked away from the love of my life. She was young, she needed to go and live her dreams without me dragging her into my darkness. She's also the little sister of my best friend. Now, Ella is back, she's not eighteen anymore. I'm not going to make the same mistake twice. She is mine, I will make sure everyone knows it, including her. She's claims she's broken. Broken or not. She is my one. Always has been. Always will be.

Bloomsbury presents Midnight Chicken written and read by Ella Risbridger. _________________ Winner of the Guild of Food Writers General Cookbook Award 2020 _________________ 'A manual for living and a declaration of hope' – Nigella Lawson 'Beautiful, life-affirming memoir with recipes ... The most talented British debut writer in a generation' – Sunday Times 'Brave and moving ... as effective as a manual for life as it is as a kitchen companion' – Shamil Thakrar, co-founder of Dishoom _________________ There are lots of ways to start a story, but this one begins with a chicken. Because one night, Ella found herself lying on her kitchen floor, wondering if she would ever get up – and it was the thought of a chicken, of roasting it, and of eating it, that got her to her feet and made her want to be alive. Midnight Chicken is the story of Ella's life in a Tiny Flat, and the food she cooked there. From roast garlic and tomato soup to charred leek lasagne or burnt­butter brownies, she shares recipes that are about people, about love, about the things that matter every day. This is a cookbook-of-stories to make you fall in love with the world again. With a new afterword about life after The Tiny Flat. _________________ 'An utter treat' – Dolly Alderton 'Divine. Utterly totally perfect' – Charly Cox 'Generous, honest and uplifting' – Diana Henry 'So thoughtfully and poetically written' – Josie Long 'She cooks like a dream and writes like an angel' – Sarah Phelps 'She has found a way to write not just about food itself but, more importantly, about the darkness for which cooking can be a partial remedy' – Bee Wilson _________________
