  • Farewell To Eden

    Farewell To Eden

    €18.95

    Philip Deval, a soldier recently returned from the beaches of Normandy, arrives in Palestine on a peace-keeping mission in the final days of the British Mandate.

    The Sea of Galilee glitters in the distance as war-weary troops marvel at the novelty of oranges and sun a paradise that belies a fierce new conflict about to erupt.

    Some years later, Philip begins work teaching at a school in the English countryside and meets the enigmatic music mistress, Frances Darwood. Over long evenings spent listening to records in her music room, they grow close.

    But Philip is a changed man, and must confront the secrets and scars of all he has lived through which threaten, even now, to upend his future.

    Farewell to Eden is a sweeping and profound novel about faith in all its forms, and a rich portrait of an embattled post-war Britain. It asks the question: how, after great suffering, do we retain our humanity, learn to love again, and believe in the promise of a better life?

  • Setting the Land Free : Visions of a Rewilded Ireland

    Setting the Land Free : Visions of a Rewilded Ireland

    €24.95
    Description
    ‘A powerful beacon of hope’ Seán RonayneAs a mass Irish rewilding movement takes shape, Eoghan Daltun takes to the high roads and byroads to meet those leading a quiet revolution on the land. Rewilding, already proven in Scotland, is gathering momentum in Ireland. It offers a radical reimagining of our relationship with the natural world, restoring balance to landscapes long dominated by extraction, industrialised farming and monoculture forestry.

    By creating space for nature to recover, on land and at sea, it promises renewed biodiversity, resilient ecosystems and a future less defined by depletion. Yet the challenge is stark: Ireland remains one of the most ecologically altered countries in Europe. In Setting the Land Free, Daltun travels across Ireland and beyond to Scotland and Costa Rica, encountering pioneers restoring bogs, reintroducing native species and regenerating forests and coastlines.

    Their work is practical, urgent and deeply hopeful, rooted in the belief that repair is still possible. This is not just a chronicle of change, but an inspiring call to imagine differently – and act.

  • The Disappearers

    The Disappearers

    €19.95

    The Disappearers is Marlon James s triumphant return to the Jamaica of A Brief History of Seven Killings a place of heat and chaos, and of danger for anyone outside the heteronormal.

    So when eight gay men meet for the first time, in Kingston in 1988, answering the casting call for an openly queer play, they are already taking a big risk.

    But that is nothing compared to what rains down on them when a mob descends on one of their rehearsals.

    By the end of this night, one man is dead, all are injured, and two subsequently disappear. As the survivors heal, each man finds he must confront the bigotry and homophobia that the attack laid bare. Some try to forget; some embrace their rage; and some simply vanish but all are forever scarred.

    As one of the victims puts it, there s a difference between when something ends and when something stops .

    And this story won t stop until both the disappearers and the perpetrators have been tracked, along trails both hot and cold, and an ending reached.

    Epic and intimate, violent and forgiving, The Disappearers is a tour de force which only Marlon James could have written both an unflinching portrait of the hatred and shame faced by gay men in a society which refuses to accept them, and a deeply human story of acceptance and insight.

  • Poetry to Stardust

    Poetry to Stardust

    €17.00

    Poetry To StarDust, or PTSD, When twin flames burn to the ground, is my memoir written in poetic verse. Through poetry, I trace the arc of trauma: a love story that turned into something far darker. Across nine parts, the book takes the reader through a journey of love, illusion, survival, pain, and ultimately, healing.

    My story begins with falling deeply in love, not with a person as they truly were, but with the version they presented to the world: someone who seemed to embody everything I had ever dreamed of. What felt like a perfect love slowly revealed itself to be something far darker, as the dream fractured into a nightmare of emotional and domestic abuse.

    Alone in Ireland, far from my family and without a support system, I found myself navigating a reality I never imagined I would face.

    Through each part of this memoir, I explore the aftermath of domestic violence, the invisible wounds, the lingering trauma, and the weight of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Yet within that darkness, there is movement toward healing. Through poetry, I began to reclaim my voice, transforming pain into something that reaches beyond survival.

    Poetry To StarDust is both my testimony and my offering. I share my truth in the hope that the cycle of domestic violence may be interrupted, that others may find recognition, strength, and a way out, or, at the very least, feel seen.
    Sometimes, 
                       being seen 
                       can be everything.
