Deeply attuned to those things that make and unmake us, Dylan Brennan's Let The Dead concerns itself with life's alchemical processes. A couple breathe life into a doomed poppet, a photographer immortalises a corpse, Joyce and Breton rub shoulders on the streets of the poet's adopted Mexico, where life is a tapestry of 'delicate anthers' and 'disembodied tongues'. These dark meditations are set against poems which consider love, miscarriage, childbirth and the daily miracle of family life. Beautiful and disturbing by turns, these reflections on Ireland and Mexico's shared colonial past invoke topographies both real and imagined, where 'things in the ground have a tendency to grow.' Let the Dead reminds us of the power of art to shape our perception of history, and of the artist's responsibility in a time of violence.

The autobiography and memoirs of Archie Brennan, the influential tapestry weaver, including analysis and rare photos.\n\n \n\n \"I have been weaving tapestries for more than half a century.

Best Fifteen Books of March 2019, Refinery29\nBest Nonfiction Books of 2019, Paste Magazine\n\nObject Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. \n\nFetishized, demonized, celebrated, and outlawed, the high heel is central to the iconography of modern womanhood. But are high heels good? Are they feminist?

Il tacco alto occupa un posto centrale nell'iconografia della femminilità moderna. Ma, si domanda Summer Brennan, «vanno bene i tacchi alti? Oppure no? Cosa vogliono dire? Sono femministi o anti-femministi? Comunicano autorevolezza? Indipendenza? Oppressione? Professionalità? Fiducia? Frivolezza? Sottomissione? Sesso? Ognuno ha un'idea diversa. Se lo chiedete a me, la mia risposta a tutte queste domande è sì».

In the vein of Maggie O'Farrell and John Boyne, Tracey Lange's critically acclaimed New York Times bestseller We Are the Brennans explores the staying power of shame - and the redemptive power of love - in an Irish Catholic family torn apart by secrets.\n\nSome secrets you keep from your family. And some secrets you keep for your family.\n\nWhen twenty-nine-year-old Sunday Brennan wakes up in a Los Angeles hospital, bruised and battered after a drunk-driving accident she caused, she swallows her pride and goes home to her family in New York. But it's not easy. She deserted them all - and her high school sweetheart - five years before, with little explanation, and they've got questions.\n\nSunday is determined to rebuild her life back on the East Coast, even if it does mean tiptoeing around resentful brothers and an ex-fiance. The longer she stays, however, the more she realizes they need her just as much as she needs them.\n\nWhen a dangerous man from her past brings her family's pub business to the brink of financial ruin, Sunday knows that the only way to protect her family is to reveal deeply buried secrets - secrets that will threaten everything they know about their lives. In the aftermath, the Brennan family is forced to confront painful mistakes - and find a way forward, together.\n\n'An astonishingly accomplished debut - the Brennans leap fully formed onto the page in this brilliantly judged novel of the intricacies of family life . . . Wholly engrossing.' - Cathy Kelly, author of The Year That Changed Everything
