Poetry

Taking some convalescent wanders around Reading, the narrator of The Constitutionals, a figure haunted by being called Crusoe in childhood, also sets out to avert global catastrophe, hoping to trigger the end of neoliberalism by going for a walk. What does he discover about the place in which hes settled with his wife, who he will call Friday, and their ocean-haunted daughter? Published on the tercentenary of Robinson Crusoes appearance, our author answers such questions by paying sustained tribute to the town, and the founding autobiography by which it hasas have so many works alluded to herebeen indelibly marked.

<p>Discover a whole new realm of botanical painting the natural life forms that coexist with flowering plants, revealed in exquisite detail. Traditionally, botanical art has focused on the flowers, leaves and form of plants. They are depicted in solitary glory on a page, divorced from the life forms that live alongside them in nature. But award-winning UK botanical painter, Christina Hart-Davies, believes passionately that flowers are only part of the picture and loves to explore the different stages, related species, habitats and associated creatures that provide their setting in the wild. She looks at plants and other life forms from all angles scientific, aesthetic and cultural to tell The Whole Story. Showcasing examples of her most popular works, The Whole Story draws on Christinas long and parallel careers in both art and illustration. Take inspiration from her enthusiasm for the details and beauty of all aspects of the natural world and benefit from her experience as she shares techniques for painting moss and insects as well as advice on composition and lettering. This book will transform your perspective and inspire you to look beyond the flowers.</p>
