THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR

Rufus Leung Gresham, future Earl of Greshamsbury and son of a former Hong Kong supermodel, is drowning in debt. The only solution, according to his mother, is for him to attend his sisters wedding and seduce a woman with money.

Will it be the French hotel heiress with a royal bloodline? The venture capital genius who passes out billions like lollipops? Or will Rufus betray his family and confess his love for his best friend and girl next door Eden? But when a volcanic eruption burns through the nuptials and a hot mic exposes a secret tryst, the Gresham family plans and their reputation go up in flames, making Rufus choice all the more impossible.

Taking us from the sand beaches of Hawaii to the skies of Marrakech, from the glitzy bachelor pads of Beverly Hills to the inner sanctums of Englands oldest family estates, Kevin Kwan has written a juicy, hilarious and sophisticated tale of love, money, murder, sex, and the lies we tell about them all.

Free at Last!: The Diaries 1991-2001 Spanning Tony Benns final decade as an MP, this third volume covers the Gulf War, the rise of New Labour, the death of Diana Princess of Wales and peace in Northern Ireland. Mixing political observations with a moving account of family life, it is full of humour, insight, joy and sadness.

Summary:

When age makes you invisible, secrets are easier to hide

Lydia imagines her new job running a Senior Citizen's Social Club three afternoons a week will involve drinking tea while playing gentle games of cards, listening to The Beatles and reminiscing about food rationing and The Blitz.

She does not expect to find a failed actor addicted to shoplifting, a woman who's been hiding from a mysterious and very chequered past, and a prolific yarn-bomber. It turns out that their ideas about how to spend their afternoons are very different.

After a tragic accident means the council threatens to sell the community centre, the Social Club, aided by their friends in the nursery next door and a geriatric orphaned dog, set out to save it.

They might not be able to save the hall, but they might just save each other - if their pasts don't catch up with them first...

Title: One Sinha Lifetime: Comedy, disaster and one mans quest for happiness

Author: Paul Sinha

Narrator: Paul Sinha

Format: Unabridged

Length: 07:33:48

Language: English

Release date: 06-20-24

Publisher: PGRH UK

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Arts & Entertainment

Summary:

Brought to you by Penguin.

'That night, I'd survived my life flashing before me, with my dignity intact.

Yes, this chaotic life has always been a gamble.

...But what a gamble.'

Paul Sinha is an award-winning comedian, a quizzing mastermind and a happily-married husband. But it hasn't always been this way.

As a boy, Paul struggled to find his place in a world where he didn't quite fit. Who was he? A smart young man with the world's knowledge at his fingertips? A traditional Bengali son, destined for a career in medicine that he didn't want? A gay man who couldn't quite come out? A man on a self-destruct mission?

Amid life's chaos, it was general knowledge - the security of clear questions with correct, if not always simple, answers - that kept Paul sane, even as he struggled into a new life as a stand-up comedian. And it was an unexpected introduction to a pub quiz team that took things even further, introducing him to a new life, a new identity, and, eventually, new love...

A hilarious and moving coming-of-age memoir of one man's search for meaning, One Sinha Lifetime is an unforgettable story of love, family, and the joy of general knowledge.

Title: Downfall: Prigozhin, Putin, and the new fight for the future of Russia

Narrator: Mark Galeotti

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:03:25

Language: English

Release date: 06-13-24

Publisher: PGRH UK

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Law & Politics, World, Global Politics

Summary:

Brought to you by Penguin.

Evgeny Prigozhin emerged as one of the most dangerous warlords in the world and as one of Vladimir Putin's chief rivals in Russia's tumultuous political climate, exiled after leading Wagner's attempted coup and killed in a mysterious plane crash. But what is the truth about this enigmatic figure, his role in the war with Ukraine, and the chaos unleashed across Russia by his turn against Putin? And, the aftermath of his death, what is next for Russia in the new stage of late Putinism that Prigozhin's life forged?

Drawing on years of research, this book traces the rise of Russia's most prominent non-state actor and examines the political climate that propelled a convicted gangster with no government office to the formidable role he has come to occupy. An essential story of Russia's recent history, The Warlord is also a compelling insight into its likely future.

Both series of the surreal sketch show, set in a parallel universe just like ours, but different

A hoot The Independent

Welcome to Radio 9 the only station providing real radio for real listeners with real radios. Its the irrational home of the terminally strange, where the dark and the silly rub along together quite nicely. Theres a wealth of anarchic programming on offer, from parodic plays, investigative reports and reality shows to spoof news and sport as well as absurd ads and off-the-wall trailers for the likes of Reckless Parenting magazine, Pro-Celebrity Blacksmith and Cats Washing Up.

Explore the green and nether regions of the South West with Bob Bradmans Bed & Breakfast; join Quentin Montreal for New Movements, as he looks into such disturbing trends as the suffragette diet, fox hunting in Maida Vale and blind motor racing; and help yourself to a heaped spoonful of Sugar Cane, the sultry Detective Sergeant whose hand is firmly wrapped around the throbbing pulse of crime.

Stay ahead of the game with the News Creation team, bringing you all the accidents and disasters before they happen; follow the ordinary people attempting to fake their way in open heart surgery, downhill skiing and abseiling in The Great Pretender; tune in to a championship football match with a difference, as Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath give us their poetic commentary on Arsenal v Inter Milan and dont forget to cast your vote in The Nations Favourite Massacre...

Written by and starring Johnny Daukes and Hils Barker, this freakish and hilarious show features a raft of talented performers including Katherine Jakeways, Jonathan Kydd, Janice Vee and Michelle Gomez.
