Nell has accepted, at age 12, that hers will likely be a friendless existence. She does not care for boys, or makeup, or competing to see who can eat the least – so has no hope of success at tweenage girl social climbing. But then, a new girl arrives at school. Eve has short hair like a boy’s, a wicked sense of humour and an unshakable confidence that she will one day find her place in the world. The moment they meet, Nell changes her mind about the friend thing. From their childhood to their 20s and 30s, Eve and Nell will love each other and hurt each other – through teenage feuds and the chlorine-scented savagery of all-girls’ schools; through long, drunken nights in scruffy share houses; through the highs and lows of coparenting a child together without being romantically involved. But always, despite a mire of unspoken feelings and sexual confusion, they will choose each other. Again, and again. As friends, as lovers, as family.
Growing plants and (if we are lucky enough) creating gardens is deeply rewarding, but has also been proven to be vital for our health. Gardening helps improve our mood, relax us, take us away from our everyday problems, and promote positive emotions. It reduces anxiety and stress, delays in the onset of dementia, promotes joy, as well as improving physical health and even self-esteem. This book explores the ways we can introduce plants into our lives and thus embrace some of the benefits the natural world provides for our well-being. Divided into 50 sections, each one highlights a plant-based activity, how this is good for your health and provides links to the underlying concept that supports health and well-being.
‘Some things we know are present cannot be seen with our eyes.’ This Japanese belief has existed for thousands of years. Through tidying up and discarding their possessions, characters in these stories come face-to-face with their memories and realise that somethings exist but cannot be seen with their eyes. Each story touches on the moment when people realise what happiness in life means and choosing things that truly spark joy. In these stories, Miko, a professional tidying consultant based on Marie, helps people tidy their homes and identify items that bring them joy. Along with her companion, an opinionated talking box named Boxter, Miko has a special power that no one else knows about – the ability to hear the voices of objects in a room.
