September titles

Celebrating the launch of Rory Cellan Jones’s RUSKIN PARK at Hatchards Piccadilly

The HHB Agency Autumn has started with the launch of some excellent new titles from our clients. Rory Cellan Jones’s moving memoir RUSKIN PARK has been widely praised with The Sunday Times commenting ‘much more than a memoir. It is a tribute to an individual woman and a whole generation and class’ and the Observer: ‘A captivating family detective story - and a poignant social history of Britain.’ It was chosen as ‘Book of the Week’ by the Daily Mail and September Publishing launched it in style at Hatchards Piccadilly where family, friends - including some ex-Ruskin Park residents - and BBC colleagues raised a toast to Rory’s mother. Rory has since been careering around the place talking about Sylvia and the cache of letters that inspired him.

Vietnamese chef, Thuy Diem Pham, spent the summer cooking delicious food over fire on the UK festival circuit and her new book VIETNAMESE MADE EASY celebrates delicious Vietnamese flavours with recipes that account for modern cooks’ time and budget constraints. It has just been published by Quadrille and a selection of recipes from the book were featured in this weekend’s Telegraph Magazine.

Historian Rachel Trethewey’s new book MOTHERS OF THE MIND has been published by The History Press this month. It tells the stories of the remarkable women who shaped Virginia Woolf, Agatha Christie and Sylvia Plath in a meticulous study of the maternal influences on these celebrated female literary figures.

And next week, psychotherapist Tasha Bailey’s new book REAL TALK will be released by Radar Books.
