'The most life-affirming book ever written about death.' Sandi Toksvig'One of the most powerful and helpful books about grief that you will ever read.' Anita Anand 'Grief is more than the price of love. It is love. We must learn not just to live with it, but to make it welcome.' Catherine Mayer and her mother Anne Mayer Bird were widowed at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. This is their story of supporting each other through whirling grief, 'sadmin' and the darkest of times, as they learn to embrace life again. Now updated with brand new chapters, Good Grief is an essential companion for loss and a testimony to enduring love. Spiked with wry humour, it is an uplifting, moving and unexpectedly joyous read. 'Smart, upbeat and brimming with fortitude' Observer 'One of the saddest things I've ever read but also the most powerful.

"The Sunday Times Top Ten Bestseller '(The book that) made headlines around the world.' Independent He has lived his whole life in the public eye, yet he remains an enigma. He was born to be king, but he aims much higher. A landmark publication, Charles: The Heart of a King reveals Prince Charles in all his complexity: the passionate views that mean he will never be as remote and impartial as his mother; the compulsion to make a difference and the many and startling ways in which the heir to the throne of the United Kingdom and fifteen other realms has already made his mark. The book offers fresh and fascinating insights into the first marriage that did so much to define him and an assessment of his relationship with the woman he calls, with unintended accuracy, his 'dearest wife': Camilla. We see Charles as a father and a friend, a serious figure and a joker. Life at court turns out to be full of hidden dangers and unexpected comedy. Poignant, funny and often surprising, the first significant study of the Prince in over a decade reveals a man in sight of happiness yet still driven by anguish and a remarkable belief system, a charitabl

A landmark publication, Charles: The Heart of a King is the first significant biography of Prince Charles in over two decades, providing the first glimpse inside the realigned monarchy that the Prince now leads. Catherine Mayer, who has written about the royals since the 1990s, has been granted unique and unprecedented access to Prince Charles, taking us beyond the public image to the man who remains largely unknown. For over a year, she has gathered exclusive material, including some fifty interviews with the Prince's closest friends, employees and critics, and sit-downs with the Prince himself, covering topics such as his approach to his future role as king and head of the Church of England, the wilder shores of his personal and political philosophy, his family relationships and his first marriage. She offers an enlightening insider's look at Charles the prince, the royal vocation and its inherent court struggles, Charles the philanthropist and businessman, founding the Prince's Trust and setting up one of Britain's first organic farms, to Charles the reformer and his controversial ideas on the relationship between the monarch and the Church of England. She also takes a closer look at Charles the man, at his upbringing, his brutal schooling and military service and his difficult relationship with his parents. And she offers a fundamental reappraisal of one of the most documented episodes of modern history: his first marriage. The reality, as in so many aspects of the Prince's story, is more gripping and more poignant than we can imagine. This book will reveal him in all his complexity, and show what kind of king he will make
