Fiction. Translated from the Swedish by Laura Wideburg. Sudden murder and the resulting psychological tension are the hallmarks of Inger Frimansson's acclaimed thrillers. In ISLAND OF NAKED WOMEN, Tobias, an author of mystery novels, must return to the family farm after his father became incapacitated due to a fall from the hayloft. Tobias resents his father's judgmental attitude, but he finds the allure of his father's young wife Sabina hard to resist. Meanwhile, Hardy, the hired hand, scoffs at Tobias's city ways, while encouraging Sabina's mentally challenged son Adam to turn into an Elvis impersonator; and Ingelize, who runs a nearby riding school, finds Tobias irresistible. The rural life becomes increasingly claustrophobic for Tobias, but before he can return to the city, death strikes a hard blow and chaos ensues.

The innocence of the young Australian soldiers sent to Malaya during the Second World War to halt the territorial expansion of the Japanese was quickly shattered by defeat and surrender. Russell Braddon, who himself became a prisoner of war, graphically describes the ghastly suffering and wanton neglect of the Allied soldiers in some of the most infamous Japanese POW camps, from Pudu in Malaya to Changi in Singapore. For more than three years he watched as these men were ravaged by disease, tortured, and deprived of their most basic needs. Braddon recounts his horrifying story with barely suppressed rage, but also with enormous admiration for the amazing ingenuity, spirit and determination of the prisoners, who created a semblance of order out of nightmarish chaos. His remarkable book makes grim but compelling reading.

Internationally bestselling author and world-famous human behaviorist Desmond Morris turns his attention to the female form, taking the reader on a guided tour of the female body from head to toe. Highlighting the evolutionary functions of various physiological traits, Morris's study explores the various forms of enhancement and constraint that human societies have developed in the quest for the perfect female form. This is very much vintage Desmond Morris, delivered in his trademark voice: direct, clear, focused, and communicating what is often complex detail in simple language. In THE NAKED WOMAN, Desmond builds on his unrivalled experience as an observer of the human animal while tackling one of his most fascinating and challenging subjects to date. -- Publisher description.

The Island of Naked Women is a collection weird and often ridiculous short stories by world renowned author Jonathan Altvater. Inside you will find a story about a rapping cockroach man that warns people about the end of the world. There is a story about scientists doing experiments in the 90s trying to unlock the secrets of saving pornographic images on floppy disks. I don't want to give away the ending, but you won't believe what happens in the story about Donald Trump eating macaroni and cheese. The stories are brisk and easy to read as long as you have an open mind that enjoys seeing the world turned on it's head and an affinity towards the absurd.

Living on a tiny, remote island in the Caribbean, former model India Hicks has developed a reverence for the most essential elements of life: breathing in the fresh air, surrounded by cleansing water, standing on the bare earth, taking hold of time. In "Island Beauty," the inspired sequel to "Island Life," Hicks shares her holistic approach, demonstrating how "island wisdom" can help women everywhere to rejuvenate both their outer and their inner selves. Hicks offers a multitude of island-inspired ideas and daily practices, covering everything from exercise and eating well to meditation and detoxification. Every chapter includes lore from the island's elders, quick tips for a healthier lifestyle, and easy-to-make, all-natural recipes for body treatments (Avocado Cleanser, Exuma Salt Glow, Hibiscus Hair Shampoo) and snacks (Grilled Lobster and Mango Salsa, Papaya Aloe Smoothie, Sleepy Tea). Graced with stunning photographs by David Loftus that capture the beauty and tranquility of the people and their setting, "Island Beauty" will encourage every woman-whether she lives on a tropical island or in a city apartment-to embrace nature and to lead a calmer, healthier life.

What do you do after you walk the Amazon? Ed Stafford—adventurer extraordinaire and Guinness World Record holder for walking the length of the Amazon River—likes a challenge. Casting about for an adventure that would top the extraordinary feat he recounts in Walking the Amazon, Stafford decides to maroon himself on an uninhabited island in the South Pacific.

Detailing Stafford’s jaw-dropping sojourn on the island of Olourua, Naked and Marooned is a tale of unparalleled adventure and of one man’s will to push himself to the outer limits—and survive.
