New Titles & Highlights Jan–Jun 2022 

Dear friend and bookseller 

Well, nearly two years in and none of us are entirely out of the 

woods yet! 

However and thankfully, despite all the problems being faced by 

everyone around the world, the globe has not stopped turning 

and books still keep being published. 

And good books too! In this edition of the SaltWay catalogue, we 

are delighted to welcome on board Wild Things Publishing who’s 

Wild Guides to walking, swimming, cycling and adventuring, in 

Europe and elsewhere, are hugely successful and imaginatively 

designed. 

We are also delighted that Crane Books are also now with SaltWay 

and their delightfully repackaged classic children’s titles, from 

the hugely celebrated illustrator Daryl Stevenson, will surely thrill 

many young minds. 

And from all our other wonderful and carefully curated client 

publishers there is yet more fascinating, unique, engaging, 

informative and charming new titles in which we very much hope 

you find real interest. 

To help our customer buyers, who may favour working from an 

electronic platform, we also provide our catalogues in PDF format 

which come embedded with live links to title covers, content and 

indeed complete texts. 

If you do not already receive PDF copies from us, please just 

request from me at: chris.mclaren@saltway.co.uk. 

Hoping to help further, Advance Information Sheets, SaltWay 

Client Publisher Catalogues, Covers, Spreads and Full Texts can 

all be viewed and downloaded via our website at: https://www. 

saltway-global.co.uk/current-catalogues 

Many of you will have heard that our principal partner distributor, 

Marston-Orca (now part of UID), are in process of re-organising 

their warehouse portfolio. This will mean SaltWay client 

publishers will be moving to a new, bespoke distribution centre 

in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire, UK shortly. This will bring about 

additional efficiencies and help improve further customer service. 

Of course, COVID issues combined with ongoing Brexit-related 

problems, within distribution services as a whole, continues to 

bring considerable extra pressure on service and your patience 

here, whilst the situation persists, is much appreciated. 

We very much hope that many of you will be able to travel again 

soon and visit us at the London Book Fair where SaltWay will have 

a stand as usual. 

Meanwhile, we sincerely hope that each and every one of you is 

safe and well. 

With best wishes 

Chris McLaren

Matthieu Rey 

Covering three main interrelated 

issues, clarifying what happened 

between 1946 and 1963 in 

Iraq and Syria: how and why a 

parliamentary system prevailed 

in both countries in the aftermath 

of WWII; what social effects this 

system triggered, and, in turn, 

how these changes affected the 

system; finally, why the elites in 

both countries were unable to 

overcome the unrest that ended 

both a liberal era and a certain 

kind of political game.

my current practice includes sketching with 

pen and ink, making marks and teasing out a sense of 

the chosen study. From here, model making, specifically 

for any larger armatures, that then will require problem 

solving and fabricating. The final skin and texture of the 

sculpture is woven onto a steel frame, often one stem at 

time, suggesting the movement and sinuous lines of the 

original sketch. 

This process is almost meditative and very time 

consuming, selecting the appropriate stems and 

intuitively creating tension in the form. Techniques that 

I have developed over the last twenty years. Willow has 

its own character with evocative qualities. Through time 

an understanding of this develops, which together with a 

bundle of patience, are all woven into the final creation. 

My sculptures have been described as ‘woven 

observations’, largely scaling and magnifying details 

found in the natural landscape. Wildflowers are a 

wonderful source of inspiration, each with its own 

unique character. From stem, leaf to flower, then finally 

seed head and dispersal, they are often identified by 

common names and referred to in folklore with a hint 

of magic! The goat’s beard has all these qualities and to 

witness this in a meadow at eye level is spectacular, and 

yet often overlooked. So, a sculpture scaled fifteen times 

larger in willow, can draw attention, and celebrate these 

smaller details. 

Goat’s beard is a very attractive wildflower – it has a 

wonderfully fluid form that lends itself to the malleable 

qualities of willow. Whilst researching this plant before 

starting to sketch I found that it has a very unusual trait 

of opening its flowers at daybreak but quickly closing

them again before noon giving rise to its other common 

name of ‘jack-go-to-bed-at-noon’. Goat’s beard is a 

classic biennial plant, producing only a rosette in the first 

growing year and completing its life cycle by flowering 

and setting seed in the second – the stunning seed ‘clock’ 

is well worth the wait. Once the sculpture has settled 

into the landscape it will mellow over time, reflecting the 

ephemeral nature of this charming little plant.

Journey time: 13 hrs 45 mins | Distance: 1,291 km 

The rail journey from Hamburg to Budapest can be completed in a long 

day. The sole direct service between the two cities takes just under 14 hours 

for a journey of about 1,300 km. It rea ly does take in four capital cities in a 

day. Travel all the way through if you will, but the great majority of travellers 

will stop off en route, usually at one or more of the following cities: Berlin, 

Dresden, Prague or Bratislava. On this journey from the banks of the Elbe 

to the Danube, there is a strong sense of swapping the cultural realm of 

northern Europe for that of Mi teleuropa (Central Europe). 

Trains over this entire route run at least every two hours throughout 

the day. So, if you do break your journey along the way, you’ l find a wide 

choice of onward services. 

Fast track alternatives 

If you are in a hurry to get from Hamburg to Budapest, there is an alternative route which 

track south through western Germany to Bavaria, and then continues through Austria to 

Vienna and beyond. It gives a slightly faster journey time, but always requires a change of 

trains along the way (normally at Vienna). 

Bear in mind, too, that there are overnight po sibilities covering parts of this route. 

There is a nightly sleeper service from Hamburg to Vienna (from where it’s just a short hop 

on to Budapest in the morning). A happy innovation for 2019 has been the reinstatement 

of the direct nigh train from Berlin to Bratislava and Budapest. 

The Hungaria 

The direc train from Hamburg to Budapest is a Eurocity service called the 

Hungaria. It has run from Berlin to Budapest for over half a century; only 

in late 2015 was it extended to start from Hamburg. Cast back to the Cold 

War days, and the Hungaria carried East German families off for summer 

holidays in Hungary — where Lake Balaton was a favourite destination. It 

was also the train tha transported government officials and party stalwarts 

carrying fraternal greetings between the Warsaw Pact capitals. The Hungaria 

was much favoured by spies too. In the 1980s, it sti l carried through carriages 

from Sweden to Yugoslavia, both non-aligned countries, and the train was 

a good spot for discreet exchanges of intelligence as i trundled through the 

central European countryside. 

The Europe traversed by the Hungaria has been u terly transformed 

over the last 30 years. The Iron Curtain has gone and borders have 

melted. That’s not to say that you’ l necessarily be able to travel from 

Berlin to Budapest without once being asked to show your passport. In 

the northbound direction this rail route is one that has been much used in

Willow artist 

I was first drawn to willow as a creative 

material for its spontaneity. The ability to 

manipulate its long slender stems into all 

manner of shapes and forms, with instant 

results contrasted to my earlier experiences 

when I used other mediums to express my 

creative thoughts. Some years on, the scent of 

drying willow fills the workshop each spring 

to punctuate the year, as the stems season 

from their winter cut green state. Willow is a 

truly remarkable plant, a perfect example of a 

sustainable material.

Meadows are a fantastic place to see an 

abundance of wildflowers, insects, birds and 

other wildlife. However, they’re not as wild 

as you might think; they’re an ancient part of 

our farming landscape that has evolved from 

the need to produce hay to feed to livestock. 

Haymaking is the reason that meadows exist, 

but, as the saying goes, they don’t make it like 

they used to. The sweet scent of good hay is 

evocative of my childhood spent around farm 

and stable. So, it was a natural choice to opt for 

haymaking on floodplain meadows as the focus 

for my PhD research.

Naguib Mahfouz’s novel was first 

published in Egypt in 1959. It has 

been at times banned, sold under 

the counter, often pirated and 

only recently legally reprinted. It 

dogged Mahfouz like a curse, led 

to his attempted assassination, 

and sparked a lasting public 

debate. Mohamed Shoair traces 

the story of the novel from 

first publication to the present 

via Mahfouz’s Nobel prize for 

literature in 1988 and the attempt 

on his life in 1994.
