a fabulous failure judith stein nelson lichtenstein

How the Clinton administration betrayed its progressive principles and capitulated to the rightWhen Bill Clinton was elected president in 1992, he ended twelve years of Republican rule and seemed poised to enact a progressive transformation of the US economy, touching everything from health care to trade to labor relations. Yet by the time he left office, the nation’s economic and social policies had instead lurched dramatically rightward, exacerbating the inequalities so troubling in our own time. This book reveals why Clinton’s expansive agenda was a fabulous failure, and why its demise still haunts us today. Nelson Lichtenstein and Judith Stein show how the administration’s progressive reformers—people like Robert Reich, Ira Magaziner, Laura Tyson, and Joseph Stiglitz—were stymied by a new world of global capitalism that heightened Wall Street influence, undermined domestic manufacturing, and eviscerated the labor movement. Robert Rubin, Larry Summers, and Al Gore proved champions of this financialized world. Meanwhile, Clinton divided his own party when he relied on Republican votes to overhaul welfare, liberalize trade, and deregulate the banking and telecommunications industries. Even the economic boom Clinton ushered in—which tamed unemployment and sent the stock market soaring in what Alan Blinder and Janet Yellen termed a “fabulous decade”—ended with a series of exploding asset bubbles that his neoliberal economic advisors neither foresaw nor prevented. A Fabulous Failure is a study of ideas in action, some powerfully persuasive, others illusionary and self-defeating. It explains why and how the Clinton presidency’s progressive statecraft floundered in a world where the labor movement was weak, civil rights forces quiescent, and corporate America ever more powerful.

American painter Roy Lichtenstein (1923–1997) pioneered a new epoch in American art, bursting onto a scene dominated by Abstract Expressionism in late 1950s New York and defining a new art vocabulary for a new era. With his groundbreaking use of industrial production techniques and trivial, quotidian imagery such as cartoons, comic strips, and advertising, Lichtenstein joined contemporaries such as Andy Warhol and James Rosenquist to reflect and satirize American mass media and consumer culture. Works such as Look, Mickey! (1961), Drowning Girl (1963), and Whaam! (1963) deployed mass production techniques, particularly Ben-Day dots printing, to create a blow-up effect and pixelated “dot” style, with which Lichtenstein has become synonymous. This book provides an essential overview of Lichtenstein’s career, tracing his earliest Pop statements through to later “brushstroke” retorts to Abstract Expressionism and reinterpretations of modern masterpieces. We look at his leading position in midcentury modernism, and the ways in which his works both critique and chronicle 20th-century America.

A formally audacious and deeply moving memoir in three timeframes that confronts the defining trauma of the twentieth century, and its effects on a father and son. In 1939, Jonathan Lichtenstein’s father Hans escaped Nazi-occupied Berlin as a child refugee on the Kindertransport. Almost every member of his family died after Kristallnacht, and, arriving in England to make his way in the world alone, Hans turned his back on his German Jewish culture. Growing up in post-war rural Wales where the conflict was never spoken of, Jonathan and his siblings were at a loss to understand their father’s relentless drive and sometimes eccentric behaviour. As Hans enters old age, he and Jonathan set out to retrace his journey back to Berlin. Published to coincide with the eightieth anniversary, this is a highly compelling account of a father and son’s attempt to emerge from the shadows of history.For readers who enjoyed East West Street, The Berlin Shadow is a beautiful memoir about time, trauma and family. Praise for Jonathan Lichtenstein's work: ‘The writing is keenly observed and emotionally resonant. . . an impressive achievement given the breadth of its reach, from Berlin in the 1930s to Bethlehem today’ New York Times on Memory

The MLA Committee on Scholarly Editions has awarded Tender Buttons: The Corrected Centennial Edition its seal designating it an MLA Approved Edition.2014 marks the one hundredth anniversary of the original publication of Gertrude Stein''s groundbreaking modernist classic, Tender Buttons. This centennial edition is the first and only version to incorporate Stein''s own handwritten corrections—found in a first-edition copy at the University of Colorado—as well as corrections discovered among her papers at the Beinecke Library at Yale University. Editor Seth Perlow has assembled a text with over one hundred emendations, resulting in the first version of Tender Buttons that truly reflects its author''s intentions. These changes are detailed in Perlow''s "Note on the Text," which describes the editorial process and lists the specific variants for the benefit of future scholars. The book includes facsimile images of some of Stein''s handwritten edits and lists of corrections, as well as an afterword by noted contemporary poet and scholar Juliana Spahr. A compact, attractive edition suitable for general readers as well as scholars, Tender Buttons: The Corrected Centennial Edition is unique among the available versions of this classic text and is destined to become the standard.Gertrude Stein (1874–1946) was one of the most important and innovative American writers of literary modernism, as well as one of the great art collectors and salon hosts of the period. A pioneering lesbian writer, Stein lived most of her life in Paris but became a celebrity in the United States with the publication of The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas (1933).Seth Perlow teaches English at Oklahoma State University.Juliana Spahr teaches writing at Mills College."Tender Buttons was recently reissued by City Lights Books, to mark the centennial of a volume that broke language barriers, acknowledging hungers to see more. It challenged with inspired daring."--Barbara Berman, The Rumpus"For the centennial of this masterpiece, Seth Perlow has given us much the best edition of the poem, based on Stein’s manuscript and corrections she made to the first edition. Punctuation, spelling, format, and a few phrases are affected and most especially the change in the capitalization of the section titles. ''The difference is spreading.''"--Charles Bernstein, University of Pennsylvania, author of Attack of the Difficult Poems: Essays and Inventions"Happy 100th birthday, TENDER BUTTONS. You are as explosive, tantalizing, and delicious as you were on the day you were born. Your birthday gift from Seth Perlow and Juliana Spahr is a beautiful new edition that will carry you into your next century, the best edition ever. Your birthday gift from all of us who love literature and culture is to buy this edition for ourselves and all our friends. Congratulations to all."--Catharine R. Stimpson, Professor, New York University, and co-editor of the two-volume Gertrude Stein: Writings published by the Library of America“The publication of an authoritative edition of Tender Buttons, with Stein’s hitherto unpublished corrections and editions, is a splendid way to celebrate the centennial of this influential modernist work. Scholars will benefit from the full documentation, and readers will appreciate its convenient format, which resembles the original publication.”--Jonathan Culler, Cornell University"This radical multi-dimensional generative cubist text with the simplest words imaginable continues to alter and shape poetics into the post post modernist future. We have Gertrude Stein''s ''mind grammar'' operating at full tilt, with unpredictability, wit and sensory prevarication. Look to the ''minutes particulars,'' Blake admonished, and here she does just that: ''it is a winning cake.'' Salvos to the editor and salient ''afterword'' that give belletristic notes and political perspective as well. A unique edition."--Anne Waldman, The Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics

A fascinating insight into the vibrant culture of Modernism, and the rich artistic world of Paris''s Left Bank, Gertrude Stein''s The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas includes an introduction by Thomas Fensch in Penguin Modern Classics.For Gertrude Stein and her wife Alice B. Toklas, life in Paris was based upon the rue de Fleurus and the Saturday evenings and ''it was like a kaleidoscope slowly turning''. Picasso was there with ''his high whinnying Spanish giggle'', as were Cezanne and Matisse, Hemingway and Fitzgerald. As Toklas put it - ''The geniuses came and talked to Gertrude Stein and the wives sat with me''. A light-hearted entertainment, this is in fact Gertrude Stein''s own autobiography and a roll-call of all the extraordinary painters and writers she met between 1903 and 1932. Audacious, sardonic and characteristically self-confident, this is a definitive account by American in Paris.Gertrude Stein (1874-1946), a writer of experimental prose, is one of the original American Modernists. Born in Pennsylvania, she lived most of her life in Paris with her partner, Alice B. Toklas. Experimental books like Three Lives (1909), Tender Buttons (1914), and The Making of Americans (1925) established her reputation as an avant-garde stylist, and The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas made her an international celebrity. As an experimental writer she has been an inspiration to countless novelists and poets in our century, from Ernest Hemingway and Edith Sitwell in her own time to Jack Kerouac and Robert Duncan in ours.If you enjoyed The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, you might like Virginia Woolf''s Orlando, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.''Buttonholes the reader with its informality, its unhurried rhythms, deadpan humour and acerbic remarks''Frances Spalding, Sunday Times

''Strikingly accomplished . . . utterly compelling.'' SUNDAY TIMES''A masterpiece of biography.'' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH''A total joy to read.'' SARAH BAKEWELL''I feel like I''ve been waiting for this book my whole life.'' SHEILA HETIFrom the celebrated author of Square Haunting comes a biography as unconventional and surprising as the life it tells.‘Think of the Bible and Homer, think of Shakespeare and think of me,’ wrote Gertrude Stein in 1936. Admirers called her a genius, sceptics a charlatan: she remains one of the most confounding – and contested – writers of the twentieth century.In this literary detective story, Francesca Wade delves into the creation of the Stein myth. We see her posing for Picasso’s portrait; at the centre of Bohemian Parisian life hosting the likes of Matisse and Hemingway; racing through the French countryside with her enigmatic companion Alice B. Toklas; dazzling American crowds on her sell-out tour for her sensational Autobiography – a veritable celebrity. Yet Stein hoped to be remembered not for her personality but for her work. From her deathbed, she charged her partner with securing her place in literary history. How would her legend shift once it was Toklas’s turn to tell the stories – especially when uncomfortable aspects of their past emerged from the archive? Using astonishing never-before-seen material, Wade uncovers the origins of Stein''s radical writing, and reveals new depths to the storied relationship which made it possible.This is Gertrude Stein as she was when nobody was watching: captivating, complex and human.

Utilizing the interplay between word and image, Stein’s writing and the artists’ images provide nuance and depth, balancing humor and sincerity. With a new introduction by the writer Lynne Tillman, Dix Portraits is an unforgettable artistic collaboration.

ONE OF WATERSTONES BEST ENTERTAINMENT BOOKS OF 2024''Sometimes fate deals up a wild card. There''s a lot to be said for one of these wild cards and from what I''ve learned over the fifty or so years of our friendship, Chris is a card from the unexpected deck'' - from the foreword by Debbie HarryMusician, photographer, storyteller, and longtime partner to Debbie Harry, Chris Stein defined the sound of an era, catapulting the icon band Blondie to #1 and selling over 20 million copies of Parallel Lines.In this no-holds-barred autobiography, Stein reveals himself-this time not in songwriting or photography, which he''s previously been known for, but in words. From a Brooklyn boyhood, a move across the river to the gritty and fecund East Village in the late 1970s allowed Stein to tap the explosive creativity that defined the era in the city. It was a time when David Bowie and the Ramones were also making music, when Andy Warhol was still alive and promoting Jean-Michel Basquiat''s work, when cool was defined not by where you came from but by what you could contribute to culture.UNDER A ROCK is a plunge into that vanished time period, and into the moments that turned the fresh sound and new look of punk and new wave into a giant artistic and commercial sensation. Stein takes us there in this revelatory, propulsive, distinctive memoir.

In the Summer of 1972, 14-year-old Judith Roberts took off for a bike ride within the vicinity of her Staffordshire home. Her body was discovered after a three-day manhunt, concealed from view in a thick privet having been brutally attacked. The community of Tamworth was rocked by the news of her death and an outcry for justice ensued. Within weeks of her murder, an impressionable and troubled soldier, based in the nearby barracks, 17-year-old Andrew Evans, walked into a police station and confessed to the killing. Relentlessly interviewed for hours on end without representation or an appropriate adult present, Andrew was swiftly charged with Judith's murder. Despite attempting to recount his statement and a legal defence at trial that defied the prosecution's arguments that Andrew Evans was guilty, a judge sentenced him to life behind bars. He was eventually acquitted in 1997 in what was, at the time, Britain's longest miscarriage of justice. While Andrew Evans fought for his freedom, another man drove up and down England undetected: Peter William Sutcliffe. Eventually proven capable of inflicting unimaginable horror at any given opportunity, an independent inquiry dubbed him likely responsible for more murders than the 13 he was convicted of and the seven others he attempted between 1975 and 1980. In _The Murder of Judith Roberts_, Chris Clark and Tanita Matthews examine evidence that concludes that Sutcliffe, whose violent criminal history dates back as far as 1969, was the real culprit responsible for Judith's murder. With never before-published dialogue from Andrew Evans' police interviews showing the grave miscarriage of justice, the case file of the five-decade cold case is examined under a new light.

In response to recent developments in pictorial practice and critical discourse, Painting beyond Itself: The Medium in the Post-medium Condition seeks new ways to approach and historicize the question of the medium. Reaching back to the earliest theoretical and institutional definitions of painting, this book—based on a conference at Harvard University in 2013—focuses on the changing role of materiality in establishing painting as the privileged practice, discourse, and institution of modernity. Myriad conceptions of the medium and its specificity are explored by an international group of scholars, critics, and artists. Painting beyond Itself is a forum for rich historical, theoretical, and practice-grounded conversation.ContributorsCarol Armstrong, Benjamin H. D.

Naučte se metody a strategie, které používají elitní hráči a týmy k dosahování světové úrovně. Cílem této knihy je naučit a inspirovat čtenáře, aby se dali do okamžité akce k vylepšení nastavení své mysli, zvyků a hodnot. Alan Stein Jr. vám svou knihou Pozvedněte svou hru poskytne počáteční jiskru k pozvednutí vlastní hry na zcela novou úroveň, a to ve všech oblastech vašeho života. V knize objevíte nástroje, nápady, příběhy a ponaučení, včetně aktivních úkolů, které se autor naučil od celé řady lidí, jež jsou ve svých oborech na světové úrovni. Podělí se s vámi o smysluplné a působivé konverzace a zjištění, které měl to štěstí získat od velkého množství expertů. Nenajdete zde tak pouze příběhy vrcholových sportovců, ale i úspěšných byznysmenů. Na konkrétních příkladech uvidíte, že samotný úspěch je pouze výsledek veškerých maličkostí, které děláme. Cesta za úspěchem není složitá, je náročná a vyžaduje absolutní odhodlání. Skutečná práce už bude na vás. Koneckonců, nemůžete někomu platit, aby za vás dělal kliky. Kniha je rozdělena do tří částí: Hráč, Trenér a Tým. V byznysu by seděly k pojmům Zaměstnanec, Manažer/Ředitel a Organizace. Každá z těchto částí obsahuje pět charakteristik, které jsou potřebné k dosažení úspěchu v dané roli. Všechny tři na sebe navazují následujícím způsobem: „Alan hrál obrovskou roli v mém vývoji na hřišti i mimo něj. Jeho vedení mi umožnilo dostat se tam, kde jsem dnes. Tato kniha je must read.“ – KEVIN DURANT „Alan ví naprosto přesně, co je potřeba k tomu pozvednout svou hru.

Je to něco, co přitahujete, volíte si a vytváříte sami. Úspěšní lidé dělají maličkosti lépe než kdokoliv jiný. Právě toto dělá ty nejlepší těmi nejlepšími. Ultra-úspěšní lidé dosáhli svých úspěchů díky zvládnutí základů a dělání malých věcí, a to každý den. “ - ALAN STEIN JR. O autorovi: Alan Stein Jr., výkonnostní kouč, motivační řečník a autor, svou kariéru trenéra elitních sportovců odstartoval hned po dokončení univerzity v roce 1999. Posledních více než 15 let strávil prací s některými z nejlepších sportovců planety, včetně basketbalových superhvězd jako např. Kevin Durant, Steph Curry nebo Kobe Bryant. Nyní si jej velké společnosti najímají, aby jim ukázal, jak využít stejné strategie v byznysu i životě. Principy dosahování úspěchu na hřišti totiž mají spoustu paralel s principy, které jsou potřeba k dosažení úspěchu v jakémkoliv jiném odvětví.

''Fascinating . . . Shot through with fresh insights . . . No previous biography has attempted anything so comprehensive.'' ObserverNelson is a thrilling new appraisal of Horatio Nelson, the greatest practitioner of naval command the world has ever seen. It explores the professional, personal, intellectual and practical origins of one man''s genius, to understand how the greatest warrior that Britain has ever produced transformed the art of conflict, and enabled his country to survive the challenge of total war and international isolation. In Nelson, Andrew Lambert - described by David Cannadine as ''the outstanding British naval historian of his generation'' - is able to offer new insights into the individual quality which led Byron rightly to celebrate Nelson''s genius as ''Britannia''s God of War''. He demonstrates how Admiral Nelson elevated the business of naval warfare to the level of the sublime. Nelson''s unique gift was to take that which other commanders found complex, and reduce it to simplicity. Where his predecessors and opponents saw a particular battle as an end in itself, Nelson was always a step ahead - even in the midst of terrifying, close-quarters action, with officers and men struck down all around him. ''Excellent . . . Worthy of the stirring events [it celebrates].'' Independent

Much plagiarized and its contents distorted over the years, Stein's seminal work is a classic of original scholarly and spiritual research. In studying the central Grail narrative of Parzival by Wolfram von Eschenbach, Stein takes a twofold approach. On the one hand he searches historical records in order to identify actual people and events hidden behind the Grail epic's veil of romance, and on the other hand he deciphers Eschenbach's hidden spiritual messages, showing Parzival to be an esoteric document containing mighty pictures of the human being's inner path of development. Stein reveals the period of the ninth century to be of more than historical and academic interest. It is the karmic ground out of which the destiny of modern times grows - the mighty battle that must take place between the powers of the Grail and the sinister anti-Grail forces at large today.

A bold experimenter, her writing sparks with vitality, relishing in rhythm, repetition, sound and colour in its central vision: to prise apart language and association and find thrilling new ways to express the true essence of her subject with charming joie de vivre.Stein considered her shorter writings to be the truest expressions of her enrapturing style. Her fascination with people and personalities can be located in expressive portraits of close friends Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Cezanne, Jean Cocteau, and Juan Gris, whilst her decades-long relationship with Alice B. Toklas is immortalised with shimmering eroticism. There are also playful meditations on her unique writing process, conveying her serious delight in meddling with conventions of grammar and composition.Confirmed Table of Contents:     Ada    Portrait of Mabel Dodge    Matisse    Picasso    Miss Fur and Miss Skeene    Flirting at the Bon Marche    Susie Asado    Preciosilla    Sacred Emily    One    Ladies Voices    Accents in Alsace    Idem the Same    Cezanne    A Book Concluding with As A Wife Has a Cow    Van or Twenty Years Later    If I Told Him    Juan Gris    Identify a Poem    What Does She See When She Shuts Her Eyes    Advertisments    What Happened    Jean Cocteau    A Movie    A Waterfall and Piano    Saint in Seven

Awaken the gifts and power of the 6th dimension hidden in your star ancestor DNA• Explains how our collective evolution from 3D to 5D is designed to include the spiritual frequencies of the Sixth Dimension • Offers meditations, tools, and insights to awaken dormant strands of DNA, activate light codes, and use our 6D gifts to change our world • Explores the light language of 6D that is found embedded in sacred geometry and sound, and how it connects us to Divine Mind As physical reality shifts from 3D to 5D, humans are evolving from the dense 3D/4D frequencies to the enlightening frequencies of 5D/6D. In this guide to incorporating 6D into our ascension process, Judith shows how to activate its power to manifest our highest potential, personally and collectively. As 3D/4D humans, 10 of our 12 strands of DNA are shut down. This book shows how, as we evolve into 5D/6D Divine humans, we reopen these strands and activate their embedded light codes. With meditations, spiritual tools, and insights to activate these light codes, Judith reveals how to identify old beliefs, wounds, and resistances and consciously process, release, and transform them. She explores the light language of 6D embedded in sacred geometry and sound, and how it connects us to Divine Mind. Activating more strands of DNA gives us access to higher dimensions and reclaim the wisdom of our Star ancestors and the civilizations they seeded in Atlantis, Lemuria, and ancient Egypt. Connecting with 6D frequencies allows us to manifest intentions and receive 6-dimensional gifts, such as connecting with our ka body, the energetic blueprint of our soul. This helps us connect to our star family for guidance, integrate the collective shadow, and activate our Starseed memories. As more of us do this, we shift the physical reality of our planet to usher in a new Golden Age. Guiding us through our collective ascension journey, Judith helps us unlock our potential, reconnect with divine wisdom, and create a more loving and vibrant reality.

Selected as a Book of the Year 2017 in the Guardian. 'Maggie Nelson's short, singular books feel pretty light in the hand... But in the head and the heart, they seem unfathomably vast, their cleverness and odd beauty lingering on' Observer. In 1969, Jane Mixer, a first-year law student at the University of Michigan, posted a note on a student noticeboard to share a lift back to her hometown of Muskegon for spring break. She never made it: she was brutally murdered, her body found a few miles from campus the following day. The Red Parts is Maggie Nelson's singular account of her aunt Jane's death, and the trial that took place some 35 years afterward. Officially unsolved for decades, the case was reopened in 2004 after a DNA match identified a new suspect, who would soon be arrested and tried. In 2005, Nelson found herself attending the trial, and reflecting with fresh urgency on our relentless obsession with violence, particularly against women. Resurrecting her interior world during the trial - in all its horror, grief, obsession, recklessness, scepticism and downright confusion - Maggie Nelson has produced a work of profound integrity and, in its subtle indeterminacy, deadly moral precision.

Kevin Durant, Steph Curry a Kobe Bryant). Není tedy náhodou, když říká, že úspěšní lidé jsou úspěšní díky své disciplíně během chvil, kdy jsou mimo záři reflektorů. Jejich odhodlání jim dovolilo utvořit si, opakovat a udržet pozitivní vzorce chování ve všem, co dělají – jednoduché, ale účinné.\nKniha je rozdělena do tří částí: Hráč, Trenér a Tým. V byznysu by seděly k pojmům Zaměstnanec, Manažer a Organizace. Každá z těchto částí obsahuje 5 charakteristik, které jsou potřebné k dosažení úspěchu.\nCesta za úspěchem není složitá, je náročná a vyžaduje absolutní odhodlání. Skutečná práce už tak bude na vás.

Průměrní hráči se neustále zaobírají tím, co dělá jejich trenér, co dělají jejich spoluhráči, jejich soupeř nebo rozhodčí. Skvělí hráči vnímají podněty z toho, co přichází od všech zmíněných, ale potom tráví každý zápas a trénink soustředěním pouze na to, co dělají oni sami a jakým způsobem reagují na dění okolo nich. Pracují na své snaze a svém přístupu.\n\nMy rozhodujeme o tom, jak nahlížíme na věci a co s nimi potom uděláme. To je celé. Všechno ostatní už není v našich rukou. Pokud nezískáte povýšení nebo nového klienta, můžete ukazovat prstem na všechny strany. Můžete strávit týdny babráním se v bazénku obviňování a lítosti – spoustu lidí to tak dělá! Anebo na sobě můžete dál pracovat. Které z těchto dvou chování si myslíte, že povede k příštímu povýšení nebo novému klientovi?\n\nNevěřím v něco, čemu se říká "milionový nápad". To totiž navozuje dojem, že jediné, co musíte udělat je přijít s nějakým nápadem a peníze pak samy začnou přitékat vaším směrem. Takhle to ale ve skutečnosti nefunguje. Nikdy to nefungovalo. Vize nekončí tím, že přijdete s nějakým nápadem. Pokud by tomu tak bylo, viděli bychom mnohem více miliardářů, kteří jen tak posedávají a vymýšlejí nápady. Je to o tom, abyste s nápadem něco udělali, což vyžaduje pomoc dalších lidí.'}

Developing an original theoretical approach to understanding the roots of regional conflict and cooperation, International Relations in the Middle East explores domestic and international foreign policy dynamics for an accessible insight into how and why Middle Eastern regional order has changed over time. Highlighting interactions between foreign policy trajectories in a range of states including Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Turkey, Ewan Stein identifies two main drivers of foreign policy and alignments: competitive support-seeking and ideological externalisation. Clearly linking political, ideological and foreign policy dynamics, Stein demonstrates how the sources of regional antagonisms and solidarities are to be found not in the geopolitical chessboard, but in the hegemonic strategies of the region''s pivotal powers. Making the case for historical sociology - in particular the work of Antonio Gramsci and Louis Althusser - as the most powerful lens through which to understand regional politics in the Middle East, with wider implications for the study of regional order elsewhere.

''I''ve wanted to make a series in Spain for a long time. I love Spanish food, I''ve been going there since I was a young boy - but until quite recently I don''t think people really took the food seriously. Thanks to a handful of really dedicated Spanish chefs and a growing enthusiasm for its rugged flavours, that has all begun to change. To me the underlying point of journeying to Spain would be to discover the ''duende'' in the cooking. By that I mean a sense of soul, of authenticity. The word is normally used in flamenco but I think it could be equally applied to the art of Spanish cooking because to my mind, in really good food, there is a communication between the cook and diner that amounts to art.'' Rick SteinIn his beautifully designed and illustrated cookbook to accompany a major BBC2, 4-part series, Rick has selected over 140 recipes that capture the authentic taste of Spain today. Spain is a country that tantalises every sense with its colourful sights, evocative music, vibrant traditions and bold cookery. Spanish cooking has a rich history, with flavours reflecting a broad range of cultural influences. Rick samples his way through the specialties and hidden treats of each region, taking in the changing landscape from the mountainous northern regions through the Spanish plains to Mediterranean beaches.With over 100 Spanish recipes and location photographs, this is an essential cookbook for food-lovers as well as a stunning culinary guide to a diverse country.

Jak blízko můžeme být lidem, které milujeme? Fotograf sleduje svého adoptivního syna, se zájmem i odstupem zároveň, jeho žena ten pohled vidí, a tím by se to mohlo celé pokazit. Starý muž vzpomíná na cestu na ostrov Nantucket, poslední společnou výpravu s přáteli a do domu, který je zatím jen nahrubo postavený, slovy se kreslí do vzduchu. Žena vypráví o jednom dni u jezera, o jednom neštěstí a možná i o jedné velké lásce. Dítě poprvé v životě spálí věc, která pro něj byla dlouho důležitá. Postavy Judith Hermannové jsou někdy úplně bezbranné. O to intenzivnější jsou jejich setkání s jinými, milovanými nebo cizími lidmi. Tyto momenty nastávají bezděčně, bez vzruchu a pod povrchem vyvolávají existenciální tíhu. Judith Hermannová používá málo slov, ale mezi nimi se odehrávají neuchopitelné věci.
