"This Is Marketing is a very accessible way into Godin's thinking.... Godin writes in pacy, jargon-free prose and this book is interesting and useful for anyone who wants an insight into how, and why, we buy things or change our habits in any way." - The Financial Times&#160;

Murder High

'Barnes merges travelogue with history, visiting the ruined and reclaimed homes - once opulent abodes with rose gardens - of the wealthy and often ennobled white settlers of Wanjohi Valley, near the Aberdare mountains in west central Kenya. The author's journey to find out from locals where the set lived is determined and admirable.' ‘A problem with the depiction of Happy Valley arises when you encounter stories like that of Mary Miller, to whom I am very distantly related. Juliet Barnes hears that Mary ‘lived off lorry-loads of champagne and booze before shooting herself…’ Also that she and her husband were on the edge of the notorious party set in their home near the Wanjohi or ‘Happy’ Valley, a chilly cleft in the Aberdare highlands near where Barnes herself lives today. The gossip is entirely untrue, as Barnes, a white Kenyan whose book thankfully begins to debunk the Happy Valley silliness, discovers. Beautifully written.’"The author does a good job of presenting the various views, with added insights after visiting the homes and hearing local lore about some of the main players. In the end a well-thought-out blended theory of the motive for Lord Erroll's murder and the possible perpetrators gives yet another twist to this unsolved mystery.... the book is a valuable addition to the library of anyone interested in this period of Kenya's history.""A page-turning exploration of historic houses & Kenya’s notorious ‘Happy Valley’. Truly a book of our time, this is a must read if you want to get under the skin of the last 100 years of Kenya’s social history."'Numerous books have been written about Kenya’s infamous Happy Valley, but the latest edition, The Ghosts of Happy Valley: Searching for The Lost World of Africa’s Infamous Aristocrats, offers a fresh, much needed, perspective. This book is highly recommended for those interested in this part of Kenya’s history and wising to understand the current state of things.''Beautifully told travelogue and historical quest. With family histories woven in, this is a moving, entertaining and enlightening read, and an honest exploration of Kenya’s colonial past.’

LONGLISTED FOR THE DSC PRIZE FOR SOUTH ASIAN LITERATUREFINALIST FOR THE ETHEL WILSON FICTION PRIZE (BC BOOK AWARDS)FINALIST FOR THE WRITERS' TRUST FICTION PRIZE&#160;SHORTLISTED FOR THE GOVERNOR GENERAL'S &#160;LITERARY AWARD&ldquo;As engrossing as any thriller, Anosh Irani&rsquo;s novel offers readers so much more. An aggregate of storytelling accomplishments, The Parcel captivates with its vividly rendered characters. . . . Deeply affecting.&rdquo; &mdash;The Quill and Quire &#160; &ldquo;A magnificent novel with powerfully imagined characters . . . bold, bawdy, tender, funny, sorrowful, all that life is made up of.&rdquo; &mdash;Anita Rau Badami, author of The Hero's Walk&ldquo;Part of the way this excellent book heals such a sprawling, horrifying reality is with beauty. . . .&rdquo; &mdash;The Globe and Mail &#160; &ldquo;As engrossing as any thriller, Anosh Irani&rsquo;s fourth novel offers readers so much more. An aggregate of storytelling accomplishments, The Parcel captivates with its vividly rendered characters and commands the reader&rsquo;s attention by way of unnerving&mdash;and at times profoundly disturbing&mdash;portraiture of an abject group at the bottom of an already denigrated community at the heart of India&rsquo;s booming financial hub, Mumbai. . . . Irani leads readers on a memorable walking tour through what is likely alien territory for them. . . . The various episodes in the novel are deeply affecting, giving the reader ample reason to agonize over the fact that such a place exists at all. Irani&rsquo;s compassion for these discarded souls, and the assertion of their essential dignity, renders them simultaneously touching and distressing.&rdquo; &mdash;Quill & Quire (starred review)"Set amid the raucous swirl of Bombay&rsquo;s Kamathipura Red Light District,&#160;The Parcel&#160;is a searing indictment of the sex trafficking industry and a compassionate portrait of a troubled but resilient community. In Madhu, the transgender, retired prostitute at the heart of the novel, Anosh Irani has created a powerful yet flawed character to steward the reader through difficult, often disturbing material. Her struggles&mdash;with her past, with the legacy she might leave behind&mdash;are rendered with honesty and grace. Harrowing, enraging, unexpectedly humorous, and also profoundly sad,&#160;The Parcel&#160;is a haunting work of fiction that illuminates the ways in which history, both political and personal, pervades the present day."&#160;&mdash;2016 Rogers Writers&rsquo; Trust Fiction Prize Jury Lauren B. Davis, Trevor Ferguson, and Pasha Malla&ldquo;Irani takes readers into the depths of Mumbai&rsquo;s teeming Kamathipura district, whose economy depends on prostitution bordering on slavery. The story centres on eunuch and former sex worker Madhu&mdash;now a beggar and sometime aid to a powerful madam&mdash;who is called on to groom a pre-teen Nepalese girl for work in the brothel. Sounds grim, but Irani&rsquo;s ear is attuned to the raucous humour of the sex workers as they do what they can to maintain their dignity. A harsh dose of reality administered with wit and clarity.&rdquo; &mdash;NOW &ldquo;The Parcel takes on weighty, difficult content involving extensive research, and including fascinating, complicated characters.&rdquo; &mdash;CBC Radio &#160; &ldquo;[A]rresting. . . . A searing, disturbing, and intimate portrait of Kamathipura . . . his novel exposes a heartbreaking reality.&rdquo; &mdash;The Vancouver Sun &#160; &#160;&ldquo;Irani&rsquo;s novel does not flinch from its dark subject matter, and is already being buzzed about as one of the most provocative works of the fall season.&rdquo; &mdash;Quill & Quire  &#160; &ldquo;Irani brings to light a fascinating array of characters.&rdquo; &mdash;Toronto Star &#160;&ldquo;The Parcel showcases the perceptive acid-streaked sensibility that distinguishes Irani&rsquo;s novels and plays. . . . As in Irani&rsquo;s novel The Song of Kahunsha . . . disenchantment remains a primary motif in The Parcel. But though Irani makes the hell of slums visceral on his pages, he offers here the ways feral compassion can turn to grace.&rdquo; &mdash;National Post &ldquo;Anosh Irani&rsquo;s The Parcel is a dark, intimate and probing look at Kamathipura&rsquo;s Hijra community through the eyes of its protagonist Madhu. . . . Madhu&rsquo;s moments of realisation are evocatively captured, as the reader plays silent companion to her travails and by default, the lesser-known, insightful side to the Hijra community. . . . Dark, disturbing and yet triumphant . . . riveting twists and turns. High on drama and emotion set in the seamier side of Mumbai, this novel is a page-turner.&rdquo; &mdash;Mid-day (India)
