Harry Benson. The Beatles. on the road 1964-1966 2024
In early 1964, photographer Harry Benson received a call from the photo editor of Londons Daily Express, who asked him to cover the Beatles trip to Paris. It was the beginning of a career-defining relationship, which would both make Bensons name and produce some of the most intimate photographs ever taken of the Beatles. In Paris, Benson captured the Fab Four in the midst of a pillow fight at the George V Hotel, a spontaneous moment which came to epitomize the spirit of the bandBenson himself has called it the best shot of his career. Later that year, he followed the group on the road for their debut U.S. tour, documenting their appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, their surprising encounter with Cassius Clay, and the hysteria of New York Beatlemania. Benson also photographed George Harrisons honeymoon in Barbados, documented the Beatles on the set of their debut movie A Hard Days Night, and was present on the now infamous 1966 tour when John Lennon said that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus. This pocket-sized edition brings back the best of Bensons luminous black-and-white Beatles portfolio. Complemented by quotes and newspaper clippings from the period, an introduction by the photographer himself adds exciting personal testimony to these iconic images of the greatest band in musical history.

Kingsolver B., Demon Copperhead 2023 (New York Times Readers' Best Book of the Century)
Demons story begins with his traumatic birth to a single mother in a single-wide trailer, looking like a little blue prizefighter. For the life ahead of him he would need all of that fighting spirit, along with buckets of charm, a quick wit, and some unexpected talents, legal and otherwise. In the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia, poverty isnt an idea, its as natural as the grass grows. For a generation growing up in this world, at the heart of the modern opioid crisis, addiction isnt an abstraction, its neighbours, parents, and friends. Family could mean love, or reluctant foster care. For Demon, born on the wrong side of luck, the affection and safety he craves is as remote as the ocean he dreams of seeing one day. The wonder is in how far hes willing to travel to try and get there.Suffused with truth, anger and compassion, Demon Copperhead is an epic tale of love, loss and everything in between.
