'An astonishing book. Hardly more than 50,000 words, it iswritten with a manic economy that makes it seem even shorter, andwith a tamped-down force that continually explodes in a series ofexactly controlled detonations. "Offshore" is a marvellousachievement: strong, supple, humane, ripe, generous and graceful.'Bernard Levin, Sunday Times 'She writes the kind of fiction inwhich perfection is almost to be hoped for, unostentatious as truevirtuosity can make it, its texture a pure pleasure.'

Starred Review. Van Gogh's reputation in the publicimagination has been made as much by his descent into madness as byhis art. Detailing the final year of his life and the "Studio ofthe South" in which Gauguin and Van Gogh painted side by side,Gayford brings the art back into focus. Explications of the worksilluminate the collaboration—similar subjects find very differenttreatment by two entirely different temperaments. Yet theirinfluence on each other is everywhere—a story that Van Goghrecommends to Gauguin finds its way into a painting; Van Gogh usesthe jute canvas that is Gauguin's material of choice. While some ofthis is well-trodden territory, Gayford's narrative is genuinelydramatic as it moves toward Van Gogh's fateful end. Gayford makesexciting new connections between the tone of Van Gogh'scorrespondence and known scholarship about his probable bipolardisorder. The influences of literature, the news media andso-called "hygienic excursions" (visits to the local brothels)percolate in these le

'Its stylishness, and this low-voiced lack of emphasis are apleasure throughout, its moral and human positions invariablysympathetic. But it is astringent too: no self-pity in itsself-effacing heroine, who in a world of let-downs and put-downsand poltergeists, keeps her spirit bright and her book-stockmiraculously dry in the damp, seeping East Anglian landscape.'Isabel Quigley, Financial Times 'Penelope Fitzgerald's resources ofodd people are impressively rich. Raven, the marshman, who ropesFlorence in to hang on to an old horse's tongue while he files theteeth; old Brundish, secretive as a badger, slow as a gorse bush.And this is not just a gallery of quirky still lives; these peopleappear in vignettes, wryly, even comically animated!On anyreckoning, a marvellously piercing fiction.'

In this spellbinding biography, Todd interweaves the life ofMaria Sibylla Merian, a German artist and naturalist who becamefamous in the seventeenth century for her engravings ofcaterpillars, with the intellectual and scientific history ofmetamorphosis. At a time when theories of spontaneous generationwere popular, and when most naturalists contented themselves withspecimens pinned behind glass, Merian believed “in what could notbe encased—the moment-by-moment shifts.” Her work led her toAmsterdam, where curiosities arriving on trading ships promptedher, at the age of fifty-two, to sell her belongings for passage toSurinam. The engravings of the bugs she saw there brought thestrange, delicate environment of the Americas to vibrant life, andrevealed the complexities of insect mutation and regeneration. Toddpoints out the difficulties—competing theories and superstitions,exceptions for every rule—faced by natural scientists in Merian’sday, and hears their echo in modern-day entomology. ( The

From School Library Journal StarredReview. Grade 1–4—A visually stunning book illustrated with cutpaper and torn collages. Jenkins's introductory warnings are gentlyalliterative: "NEVER pet a platypus"; "NEVER touch a tang." Thegentleness stops there, however. "NEVER jostle a jellyfish. A boxjellyfish, that is. Most jellyfish can sting people, but….If youare unlucky enough to become really entangled with a box jellyfish,you can die very quickly." Readers may enjoy staring deadly dangerin the face, knowing that it is distant and rare. They'll also betreated to fascinating facts about creatures like the cassowary,electric caterpillar, cane toad, and puffer fish. Further readingis provided in the back matter, including an explanation ofanimals' need for powerful protection from their predators in thewild. This exceptionally well-written portion of the book isgenerously illustrated.
