Pattern is only thirteen, but is already rising through the ranks at Mrs Minchin's Academy of Domestic Servitude and seems destined for a life below stairs. But fate intervenes when she is packed off to the small and secretive Duchy of Elffinberg, to serve as lady's maid to the lately orphaned Grand Duchess. Pattern's young new mistress is excitable and paranoid, yet despite their differences the two girls forge an unlikely friendship that quickly turns into a battle for survival. For picture-perfect Elffinberg hides an extremely dark and deadly secret . . . Armed only with her trusty sewing basket, a bottle of smelling salts and J. Bulcock's inestimable guide, The Duties of a Lady's Maid, Pattern will need all her wits and resourcefulness when dealing with above-stairs conspiracies and below-stairs intrigue. Darning stockings has never been so dangerous.

Niagara Falls, 1915 When Bess Heath returns to her family home near the picturesque falls, it is to an unfamiliar scene - the elegance of the life she once knew has vanished. Her father is a broken man, jobless and losing hope, and her mother is struggling to keep the family afloat. Isabel, the lively, charismatic sister Bess has always relied on is almost unrecognisable. Her engagement called off, she languishes in her bedroom, brooding and refusing to eat. Through all of this Bess finds solace in Tom Cole, a man she met by chance the night she returned home. Constant, gentle and devoted to Bess, he understands better than anyone the awesome and potentially devastating power of the falls - and consoles her through a tragedy that nearly ruins her. But as their lives become more fully entwined, Bess is forced to make a painful choice between what she wants and what is best for her family . . .

Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Book of the Duchess" presents a poignant exploration of loss and mourning, cleverly woven into a dream vision format. This narrative poem, composed around 1368, ultimately serves as a tribute to the late Blanche of Lancaster, the wife of John of Gaunt. Chaucer employs an intricate blend of allegory and personal lamentation, employing a diverse range of metrical patterns to create a rich, lyrical texture that reflects his mastery of Middle English. The poem engages deeply with themes of love, memory, and the transience of life, placing it within the broader context of medieval literature's fascination with dreams and the subconscious realm of human emotions. Chaucer, often hailed as the father of English literature, was significantly influenced by his experiences in the court of Edward III and his exposure to various literary traditions, including French allegory and Italian verse. His interactions with the aristocracy and the burgeoning middle class provided a unique lens through which he could articulate his observations on love, social status, and the human condition, making "The Book of the Duchess" a seminal work reflecting the complexities of his time. This book is highly recommended for readers seeking a profound understanding of medieval literature and the intricacies of human emotion. Chaucer's ability to infuse personal grief into an artistic framework not only captivates the reader but also invites reflections on universal themes of love and loss. "The Book of the Duchess" remains a timeless exploration that resonates with any reader who has experienced the depths of longing and remembrance.

From the bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale and The Testaments • This brilliant collection of connected short stories strings together several decades of moments in the life of one woman—as an ambitious girl in the 1930s, as a young professional coming of age in the uncertain ‘50s and ‘60s, and as half of a couple growing old together. In a series of vividly evoked settings that span cities, backwoods, and farm country, we see this woman contending over time with an unstable sister, a married lover, aging parents, mystifying stepchildren, vulnerable farm animals, and her own changing self. By turns funny, lyrical, earthy, shocking, and deeply personal, Moral Disorder displays Margaret Atwood’s celebrated storytelling gifts and unmistakable style to their best advantage.
