R207 R145 Discovery Miles 1 450 Save R62 (30%) Ships in 12 - 17 working days

A hilarious fill-in activity book that encourages you to unleash your inner rage, scribble down your deepest annoyances, and creatively detail every person who has ever done you wrong.

The Little Book of Bad Moods is an irreverent adult activity book that lets you unleash all your pent-up anger and say the things that you can't say out loud. Especially during the New Year, when it's cold and dark and you're supposed to give up drinking, eating or doing anything you really enjoy. Fun and easy fill-in activities for all those minor, daily annoyances include:

– What's Wrong With My Life? And whose fault is it?

– Retrospective Comebacks. The things you should have said at the time.

– Had a Bad Week. Please, vent.

Funny, outrageous and shockingly cathartic, this is a bad little book that actively encourages you to have a really good moan. Put pen to paper and embrace your inner git (just remember to hide your copy from anyone you happen to care about).

The Book of Tea - Japanese Tea Ceremonies and Culture (Hardcover): Okakura Kakuzo The Book of Tea - Japanese Tea Ceremonies and Culture (Hardcover)
Okakura Kakuzo
R537 R464 Discovery Miles 4 640 Save R73 (14%) Ships in 12 - 17 working days

'Tea began as a medicine and grew into a beverage,' are the opening words of Okakura Kakuzo's The Book of Tea, written in English in 1906 for a Western audience. The book is a long essay celebrating the secular art of the Japanese tea ceremony and linking its importance with Zen Buddhism and Taoism. It is both about cultural life, aesthetics and philosophy, emphasising how Teaism - a term Kakuzo coined - taught the Japanese many things; most importantly, simplicity, which can be seen in Japanese art and architecture. Looking back at the evolution of the Japanese tea ceremony, Kakuzo argues that Teaism, in itself, is one of the profound universal remedies that two parties could sit down to. Where the West had scoffed at Eastern religion and morals, it held Eastern tea ceremonies in high regard. With a new introduction, this is an exquisitely produced edition of a classic text made using traditional Chinese bookbinding techniques. Surely it's time for tea.

Love is Enough - Poetry Threaded with Love (with a Foreword by Florence Welch) (Hardcover): Andrea Zanatelli Love is Enough - Poetry Threaded with Love (with a Foreword by Florence Welch) (Hardcover)
Andrea Zanatelli
R244 Discovery Miles 2 440 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In this truly beautiful book, Andrea Zanatelli combines his extraordinary artworks with a selection of classical love poetry by Anne Bronte, William Blake, Christina Rossetti, Emily Dickinson, Percy Shelley and many more. Drawing its inspiration from the past, Love is Enough references the decorative arts of a bygone era, and is a combination of romantic imagery, antique fabrics and allegorical illustrations, mixed with poems and mottos. Often mistaken for real embroidery pieces, the artworks are in fact very detailed and intricate digital collages, made to look and feel like handcrafted works. Zanatelli is strongly influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement and the Pre-Raphaelites as well as eighteenth-century collage artist and creator of the Flora Delanica, Mary Delany, among others. Recurring themes in his work are romantic love, magical symbols, Victorian era craftsmanship, historical nun's work and relics. Details of paintings, ancient fabrics, antique jewellery and miniatures are also returning elements as they often become an integral part of the inspiration for the collages themselves. This stunning book is full of intricate detail and brimming with romance, so you can return to its pages again and again.

50 years of Pride in the words of those who changed the world. Half a century has passed since 2,000 people marched in the very first Pride march, in New York City.

The Little Book of Pride is a collection of quotes that captures the voices of those who have played a key part in the long journey to a place of Pride - from the very first pioneers, to those who took the fight into the streets of the Stonewall riots, and right up to today's movers and shakers.

Author and illustrator Cristina Amodeo draws parallels between nearly twenty-five dogs and designer chairs in this fun and stylish book that matches iconic chairs with their corresponding breed of dog.

How many times have you seen a woman artist solely referred to as the wife, girlfriend, muse, or 'mistress' of a man in the public eye? Throughout history, the achievements of women working across artistic disciplines - from visual artists to writers to filmmakers - have been largely undervalued, with the title of 'genius' reserved mainly for men. More than a Muse unpacks the complex romantic relationships that left women overshadowed, anonymous or underestimated in their work. Katie McCabe shines a light on the stories of talents like photographer Dora Maar, pioneering film editor and Hitchcock-collaborator Alma Reville, jazz pianist Lil Hardin Armstrong and many more. Exploring a broad scope of art movements and moments from Surrealism to early British silent film, Katie reexamines the contributions of women that have too often been ignored. More than a Muse views our history through the lens of artistic partnership, and positions women solidly in the foreground.
