The New York Times and The Sunday Times bestselling author Dylan Jones has written or edited twenty-eight books. In the 1980s, he was one of the first editors of i-D, before becoming a contributing editor of The Face and editor of Arena. He spent the next decade working in newspapers—principally The Observer and The Sunday Times—before embarking on a multi-award-winning tenure at British GQ. During his editorship, Condé Nast’s flagship men’s title won more awards than any other magazine—over eighty. A former columnist for The Guardian, The Mail on Sunday, and The Independent, he is a former trustee of the Hay Festival. He is currently the editor-in-chief of the Evening Standard. In 2012, he was awarded an OBE for services to publishing.


Sir Mick Jagger, famed as the dynamic frontman of the Rolling Stones, has expanded his career to include acting, producing, and philanthropic work. He has been vacationing in Mustique since the 1970s.

Every book reflects the dedication, care, and expertise that turn an idea into a lasting work of art.

  • Handle with Clean, Dry Hands: Always use clean, dry hands when handling your book to avoid transferring oils or dirt onto the pages and cover. 
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading or discoloration of the cover and pages. 
  • Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Humidity and moisture can damage both the paper and binding. Store books upright on a flat surface, away from heat sources. 
  • Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth or feather duster to gently remove dust from the cover and page edges. 
  • Use Caution When Opening: Do not force the spine flat, especially on new books, as this may damage the binding. 
  • Keep Away from Liquids and Food: Avoid placing books near food or beverages to prevent spills and stains.
