Description: Describes an extraordinary odyssey, courageous and sometimes dangerous, to wildernesses of earth and ice, water and fire.

Synopsis: Jay Griffiths describes an extraordinary odyssey, courageous and sometimes dangerous, to wildernesses of earth and ice, water and fire. A poetic consideration of the tender connection between human society and wild lands, Wild is by turns funny, touching and harrowing. It is also a journey into that greatest of uncharted lands - wild mind - as Griffiths explores the words and meanings which shape our ideas and our experience of our own wildness. Part travelogue, part manifesto, this is a one-of-a-kind book from a one-of-a-kind author.

Just Say Yes
By: PHILLIPA ASHLEY
Lucy Gibson needs to get away. When her boyfriend, winner of reality TV show Hot Shot, proposes to her on air she's stunned - into silence. She's just not ready for that kind of commitment.

But little does she realise that life down there will be far from uncomplicated!
