Nijinsky by Richard Buckle

Vaslav Nijinsky (1889–1950), a legendary dancer of the Ballets Russes, transformed ballet through his extraordinary performances and groundbreaking choreography, including The Afternoon of a Faun and The Rite of Spring.

First published in 1971, Richard Buckle’s biography offers a fascinating glimpse into Nijinsky’s life and the world of early 20th-century art, music, and dance.

MacGuffin STORIES

A little red-and-white book filled with strange stories about ordinary things.

From the Amsterdam-based design magazine MacGuffin, this collection brings together 18 short stories and drawings originally published in the magazine.

From collapsed airbeds and clogged sinks to unsettling windows and whispering trees, everyday objects become the starting points for unexpected stories.

A lovely little meeting of literature, illustration, and graphic design.

Now on our shelves!
