THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES AND NUMBER ONE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA flabbergasting feat of political reporting . . . A news bomb on every page Tina Brown, ObserverA blockbuster Guardian Gobsmacking Daily Mail Eye-popping Economist Deeply reported and gripping' Financial TimesRiveting Fintan O'Toole, New York TimesExceptional . . . packed with news that will stay news David Remnick, New YorkerIts sparked fear and leak inquiries in the White House Sunday Times*Few expected Donald Trump to return to the White House stronger than before. The indictments, convictions, assassination attempts, and four years of political exile made him not weaker but more powerful, more vengeful, and more willing to gamble than any President that came before him.Regime Change is the definitive account of the first year of Donald Trumps second presidency, based on hundreds of interviews and unprecedented reporting from deep within the administrations most closely guarded rooms. Journalists Jonathan Swan and Maggie Haberman investigate the decisions that have defined Trumps second term, which has been liberated from every constraint that defined his first. The generals who once told him no are gone, and the lawyers who remain have learned to pick their battles.Haberman and Swan take you behind the scenes of a presidency that has launched a new war in the Middle East, sealed the border, deployed National Guard troops into American cities, transformed the Justice Department into an instrument of retribution against the Presidents enemies, and turned the office itself into a brazen vehicle for profit. They reveal a President operating almost entirely on instinct and a White House operating at the edge of political power.Regime Change shows how Trump has wielded that power, who has tried to stop him, and why nearly all of them have failed. A landmark work of real-time political history, this is the story of a President who has fundamentally altered how the world understands American power.

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A fearless and urgent expos of technofascism and a road map to resistance.When Silicon Valley moves fast and breaks things, the world interprets the chaos as a necessary cost of innovation. Gil Durn reveals something far more sinister afoot: a decades-long campaign to replace elected governments with corporate rule. Drawing on insider political experience and new investigations, Durn traces this ideology from its philosophical roots in The Sovereign Individual by James Dale Davidson and Lord William Rees-Mogg. He introduces its modern apostles Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, Balaji Srinivasan and Elon Musk and shows how the promise of technological liberation has transformed into a global movement for digital feudalism, powered by cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence and algorithmically driven propaganda on social media. The Nerd Reich explains the origins, strategies and ambitions of Silicon Valleys war on democracy for the first time. From San Franciscos weaponised elections and secret billionaire projects to the White House, Durn exposes how the worlds richest men are building a new political order. The Nerd Reich is more than a hidden history; its an urgent warning: democracy is being dismantled, not by coups or tanks but by code, capital and the illusion of innovation. Durn insists there is still time to fight back if we act now.Gil Durn, New York Times bestseller, August 2026

** THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER **From the Pulitzer Prize-winning coauthor of American Prometheus, inspiration for the box-office sensation Oppenheimer, a penetrating biography of super-lawyer and political fixer Roy Cohn, whose shocking exploits over four decades have shaped the modern political era, most prominently the ascent of Donald Trump. From the 1950s to the 1980s, the many dramas of American political life had one common denominator: Roy Cohn. In his twenties, the infamous young prosecutor sent Julius and Ethel Rosenberg to the electric chair, and as the chief aide to Senator Joe McCarthy became the baby-faced symbol of ruthless communist-hunting. By his thirties, Cohn had begun working as the Mafias hired legal gun. In his forties, he was an informal adviser to Richard Nixon. In his fifties, he partied with the glitterati at Studio 54 and visited the Reagan White House, where he traded gossip with the first lady. Perhaps most significantly, Cohn mentored the young and ambitious Donald Trump, who telephoned the older man daily and studiously emulated not only his mannerisms but also his core philosophies. Years after his death in 1986 from AIDS-related complications, Cohn emerged as a central figure in Tony Kushners Pulitzer Prize-winning play Angels in America. Cohns feistiness, his surly defiance and sometimes his charm were frequently flourished to conceal vast insecurities, particularly regarding his closeted sexuality. A street fighter and self-promoting hustler, Cohn was a nefarious actor in a startling number of history-shaping events whose influence resonates to the present day. Drawing on deep archival research, original interviews and newly available material, American Scoundrel is an authoritative portrait of Cohn and an unsettling examination of how corruption, grievance and media spectacle moved into the centre of American public life.Kai Bird with Susan Goldmark, New York Times bestseller, September 2026

Academy Award-winning actor Sir Anthony Hopkins delves into his illustrious film and theatre career, difficult childhood and path to sobriety in his honest, moving and long-awaited memoir. Born and raised in Port Talbot – a small Welsh steelworks town – amid war and depression, Sir Anthony Hopkins grew up around men who were tough, to say the least, and eschewed all forms of emotional vulnerability in favor of alcoholism and brutality. A struggling student in school, he was deemed by his peers, his parents and other adults as a failure with no future ahead of him. But, on a fateful Saturday night, the disregarded Welsh boy watched the 1948 adaptation of Hamlet, sparking a passion for acting that would lead him on a path that no one could have predicted. With candour and a voice that is both arresting and vulnerable, Sir Anthony recounts his various career milestones and provides a once-in-a-lifetime look into the brilliance behind some of his most iconic roles. His performance as Iago gets him admitted into the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and places him under the wing of Laurence Olivier. He meets Richard Burton by chance as a young boy in his art teacher’s apartment, and later, backstage before a performance of Equus as an established actor meeting his hero. His iconic portrayal of Hannibal Lecter was informed by the creepy performance of Bela Lugosi in Dracula and the razor-sharp precision of his acting teacher. He pulls raw emotion from the stoicism of his father and grandfather for an unforgettable performance in King Lear. Sir Anthony also takes a deeply honest look at the low points in his personal life. His addiction cost him his first marriage, his relationship with his only child, and nearly his life – the latter ultimately propelling him toward sobriety, a commitment he has maintained for nearly half a century. He constantly battles against the desire to move through life alone and avoid connection for fear of getting hurt – much like the men in his family – and as the years go by, he deals with questions of mortality, getting ready to discover what his father called The Big Secret. Featuring a special collection of personal photographs throughout, We Did OK, Kid is a raw and passionate memoir from a complex, iconic man who has inspired audiences with remarkable performances for over sixty years.
