From the author of Exhalation, an award-winning short story collection that blends "absorbing storytelling with meditations on the universe, being, time and space ... raises questions about the nature of reality and what it is to be human" (The New York Times). Stories of Your Life and Others delivers dual delights of the very, very strange and the heartbreakingly familiar, often presenting characters who must confront sudden change—the inevitable rise of automatons or the appearance of aliens—with some sense of normalcy. With sharp intelligence and humor, Chiang examines what it means to be alive in a world marked by uncertainty, but also by beauty and wonder. An award-winning collection from one of today's most lauded writers, Stories of Your Life and Others is a contemporary classic. Includes “Story of Your Life”—the basis for the major motion picture Arrival

'A treatise on empathy and grace in extraordinary circumstances' Jojo Moyes What does it mean to be a woman? To live in a woman's body? Alexandra Heminsley thought she knew, but then her world turned inside out. Having just resurfaced from fertility issues, childbirth and early parenthood, she was told her then-husband was going to transition. Some Body to Love is Alex's profoundly open-hearted memoir about losing a partner but gaining a best friend, and together bringing up a baby in a changing world. By baring her own unique scars, Heminsley makes a vital manifesto on the unifying resilience that can be found in modern motherhood. ______________________ Praise for Some Body to Love: 'Insightful and wise, generous and kind' David Nicholls 'A brave, thoughtful and timely book' Naomi Alderman 'A testament to how family and love can be whatever shape we want them to be' Red 'It took my breath away' Bryony Gordon 'A book with a wild, deep, joyous, tender love of people at its heart' Emma Jane Unsworth
