Lucys Nose is a richly layered narrative that blends historical fiction, life writing, psychoanalysis and socio-political history to explore the intersections of memory, the imagination, and identity.At its heart is a detective-like quest to uncover the story of Freuds elusive patient Lucy R., a 30-year-old Scottish governess in Vienna who sought Freuds help in the early 1890s for olfactory hallucinations.As the contemporary author-narrator visits Vienna in the 1980s to search for traces of the woman who inspired Freuds case study, she reflects on Lucys resistance to Freuds sexual theories and begins imaginatively to reconstruct her voice and life.Set against the symbolic backdrop of a historic Viennese train station, the text becomes both a meditation on time and a neo-Victorian experiment in autofiction, merging personal memory with cultural history and blurring the lines between fact, fiction, and self-creation.

Is our private data still ours?When using information and communication technologies, the data transparency of the users is taken for granted. Inadvertently handing over our information to third parties is a common, ongoing, and widespread practice globally. Smart devices, browsers, websites, mobile applications, and social networks are all interconnected through the collection of their users" data.The book you hold in your hands briefly explains the elements that gave rise to this industry, who collects the data, the mechanisms employed, the risks involved, and the consequences that its use can generate, particularly for children and adolescents. A sustained exchange presented as an interview with ChatGPT-4.0, the popular artificial intelligence language model created by OpenAI, is also included. And thus, within this context, some suggestions are offered to allow us to enjoy the best that technology has to offer without unwanted intrusions into our personal privacy.

A friendship is a filiation we choose. It holds love and laughter; it can extend our sense of the possible. Moved to honour a form of relation often subordinated to romantic and familial ties, and to explore a part of her own history, Helene Giannecchini pieces together an alternative genealogy of queer ancestors. In searching and sensitive prose, she sifts the past to bring existences deemed marginal into communion with each other, traces of which may remain only in memory and archival fragments. Roving from Casa Susanna, a space of freedom from persecution in McCarthyite North America, to the diary of a man living with HIV in France, and to the life and work of pioneering lesbian photographer Donna Gottschalk, each narrative counters oblivion through loving acts of witness. A slantwise gathering of queer life and activism in the twentieth century, interspersed with images encountered by chance, An Army of Lovers Cannot Fail establishes friendship as a vital political force and offers a moving testament to its liberatory power.

Set in what may be the future, and centred on six women sharing a space in some sort of crumbling apartment tower, Ruins, Child is remarkable for its irresistible sweep, wit, and prickly splintered truth. Giada Scodellaros novel is like a precious old mirror: dropped, looking up at you, flashing light and bits of the undeniable. With the pulsating sway of its liquid mosaic narrative, the novel may recall Virginia Woolfs The Waves, but is entirely its own animal: kaleidoscopic, pointedly disorienting in its looseness, and powered along by snatches of speech from its compelling ensemble cast, often vernacular, often overheard. Its a book seemingly drawn from deep wells of Black American reality: Scodellaros female protagonists push back against authority in the very vivacity of their telling, setting afoot a freeing-up and a mysterious inversion of marginalization. A surreal musing, Ruins, Child uses the lens of urban infrastructure, social commentary, folklore, choreography and collective listening to create an ethnography of place and an ode to communal ruins.

This new translation of the best stories by Ichiyo Higuchi showcases the pioneering authors profound sensitivity and lyrical eye. The crystalline beauty of falling snow is a painful reminder of lost innocence; three children growing up on the fringes of Tokyos red-light district enjoy a last summer of freedom before adulthood and its compromises overtake them; a discontented serving maid and a prodigal son find their transgressions can be mutually beneficial; and a mans passion for an indifferent teahouse courtesan becomes so consuming that he is willing to sacrifice everything to it - his job, his family, perhaps even his life. Rarely translated into English, but revered in Japan for the purity of her classical language and her status as the countrys first professional woman writer, Ichiyo Higuchi drew on her own short life in a poor Tokyo neighbourhood to inspire her work. With immense delicacy of phrase and feeling, and vivid evocations of the colourful festivals and salty street banter that mask unspoken yearning and disappointed hopes, she transmits both the beauty and the struggle of working-class womens lives in turn-of-the-century Japan. In her clear-eyed vision of the world, longing and memory may be the only solace.

For much of its history, Orkney had its own language, culture and institutions. The prehistoric inhabitants created monuments which are unmatched anywhere in Europe, and the medieval period saw the magnificent earldom that expressed itself through the Orkneyinga Saga and the building of St Magnus Cathedral in Kirkwall. Like Shetland, Orkney was heavily influenced by Viking traders and raiders from Scandinavia, and for a long period it formed an outlying part of the kingdom of Norway. Over 500 years ago, however, the islands lost their Scandinavian links and since then have had a sometimes difficult association with mainland Scotland. More recent times have seen the use of Orkney as a strategic stronghold during two world wars, and the far-reaching impact of oil and gas exploitation in the North Sea. This classic book covers the whole fascinating story and will be of interest to readers far beyond the rocky shores of Orkney itself.
