'I wake to the sun striking gold on a stone wall. If I lean out of the window I can see Mount Canigou newly iced with snow. It is wonderful to live in a building with windows all around, to see both sunrise and sunset, to be constantly aware of the passage of the sun and moon.' In 1988, Rosemary Bailey and her husband were travelling in the French Pyrenees when they fell in love with, and subsequently bought, a ruined medieval monastery, surrounded by peach orchards and snow-capped peaks. Traces of the monks were everywhere, in the frescoed 13th century chapel, the buried crypt, the stone arches of the cloister. For the next few years the couple visited Corbiac whenever they could, until in 1997, they took the plunge and moved from central London to rural France with their six-year-old son. Entirely reliant on their earnings as freelance writers, they put their Apple Macs in the room with the fewest leaks and sent Theo to the village school. With vision and determination they have restored the monastery to its former glory, testing their relationship and resolve to the limit, and finding unexpected inspiration in the place. Life in a Postcard is not just Rosemary Bailey's enthralling account of the challenges of life in a small mountain community, but also a celebration of the rugged beauty of French Catalonia, the pleasures of Catalan cooking, and an exploration of an alternative, often magical world.
Equal parts mail art, data visualization, and affectionate correspondence, Dear Data celebrates "the infinitesimal, incomplete, imperfect, yet exquisitely human details of life," in the words of Maria Popova (Brain Pickings), who introduces this charming and graphically powerful book. For one year, Giorgia Lupi, an Italian living in New York, and Stefanie Posavec, an American in London, mapped the particulars of their daily lives as a series of hand-drawn postcards they exchanged via mail weekly—small portraits as full of emotion as they are data, both mundane and magical. Dear Data reproduces in pinpoint detail the full year's set of cards, front and back, providing a remarkable portrait of two artists connected by their attention to the details of their lives—including complaints, distractions, phone addictions, physical contact, and desires. These details illuminate the lives of two remarkable young women and also inspire us to map our own lives, including specific suggestions on what data to draw and how. A captivating and unique book for designers, artists, correspondents, friends, and lovers everywhere.

In May 2007, two photographs drastically changed the course of Hilton Joliet's life. Now, twenty months later, the wild ride hasn't stopped. It's a new year of jetting off to a different location each week, hanging with the best tennis players in the world, taking the scandalous pictures of them her boss at Game Set Match magazine loves her for, and finally starting to work on her book, which will document one year in her life through pictures and places and be called Living in a Postcard, a term Hilton and her best friend Jill coined to represent living in the moments they would die for. For Hilton, that's what 2009 is all about. After spending the off season adjusting to the end of her seven-year relationship with her boyfriend Luke, who is still her roommate, Hilton rejoins the tennis tour ready to have the time of her life with her two favorite players, bad-boy-turned-actually-kind-of-funny-hookup-buddy Haidin Bayliss and her best friend on tour Tanner Bruin, the guy who might be perfect for her if she were a little more over Luke and he were ready for something more serious than a six-month joyride. Sundance, Utah, the opening location for Hilton's book, provides a week of hot tub parties and laughter-filled twists and tumbles down the slopes. But it's not long before the twists and tumbles look dreadfully different. Hilton's no-strings-attached fun with Haidin takes a confusing turn, Tanner drops a bomb about his girlfriend Austin, and Hilton withholds the biggest tennis story of the year from GSM in a failed attempt to protect a friend. In the midst of her boss's fury, one player's maddening slump, a season-halting injury, an encounter with a ghost from the past, and the disturbing moment of realizing the actual postcard that is her life no longer matches the image in her head, Hilton manages to find another explosive story that will save her job. But all along she's been missing the most unexpected, and yet maybe the most obvious, story of all, one that will once again drastically change her life. Daisy Jordan loves tennis, loves to travel, and loves both of those things even more with a few hot guys thrown in the mix. She wrote this book, along with Love Means Zero, to live out one of her "postcards" through Hilton. Her other books, Everything Happens for a Reason..., the Spin the Bottle series, All That Sparkles Isn't Real Sapphire, and I Don't Want the Rest of Your Life, all include bits and pieces of her various postcards too. She has been known to hang out in hotel lobbies hoping to catch glimpses of her favorite tennis players, and she travels every chance she gets, because Living in a Postcard is pretty exciting... especially when anything you say or do can end up in a magazine.
