Will you like the answer anymore than Natasha does? Whatever the answer—if you’ve ever loved music with a matchless passion, wanted to form a band and play a gig on the Moon, you could be the friend that Natasha is waiting for. Read on…

A Beginner's Guide to Being Mental - Natasha Devon
A comprehensive guide to mental health from one of the UK's foremost experts. An A-Z from Anxiety to Zero F**ks Given.‘Am I normal?’‘What’s an anxiety disorder?’‘Does therapy work?’These are just a few of the questions Natasha Devon is asked as she travels the UK campaigning for better mental health awareness and provision. Here, Natasha calls upon experts in the fields of psychology, neuroscience and anthropology to debunk and demystify the full spectrum of mental health. From A (Anxiety) to Z (Zero F**ks Given – or the art of having high self-esteem) via everything from body image and gender to differentiating ‘sadness’ from ‘depression’.Statistically, one in three of us will experience symptoms of a mental illness during our lifetimes. Yet all of us have a brain, and so we ALL have mental health – regardless of age, sexuality, race or background. The past few years have seen an explosion in awareness, yet it seems there is still widespread confusion.A Beginner's Guide to Being Mental is for anyone who wants to have this essential conversation, written as only Natasha - with her combination of expertise, personal experience and humour - knows how.

Native Guard - Natasha Trethewey
Winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry Former U.S. Poet Laureate, Natasha Trethewey’s Native Guard is a deeply personal volume that brings together two legacies of the Deep South.Through elegaic verse that honors her mother and tells of her own fraught childhood, Natasha Trethewey confronts the racial legacy of her native Deep South—--where one of the first black regiments, The Louisiana Native Guards, was called into service during the Civil War.The title of the collection refers to the black regiment whose role in the Civil War has been largely overlooked by history. As a child in Gulfport, Mississippi, in the 1960s, Trethewey could gaze across the water to the fort on Ship Island where Confederate captives once were guarded by black soldiers serving the Union cause.The racial legacy of the South touched Trethewey’s life on a much more immediate level, too. Many of the poems in Native Guard pay loving tribute to her mother, whose marriage to a white man was illegal in her native Mississippi in the 1960s. Years after her mother’s tragic death, Trethewey reclaims her memory, just as she reclaims the voices of the black soldiers whose service has been all but forgotten.Trethewey''s resonant and beguiling collection is a haunting conversation between personal experience and national history.

Moving through her mother’s history in the deeply segregated South and through her own girlhood as a “child of miscegenation” in Mississippi, Trethewey plumbs her sense of dislocation and displacement in the lead-up to the harrowing crime that took place on Memorial Drive in Atlanta in 1985.Memorial Drive is a compelling and searching look at a shared human experience of sudden loss and absence but also a piercing glimpse at the enduring ripple effects of white racism and domestic abuse.

Richard Deacon / Free Assembly
Publikace vydaná při příležitosti výstavy Richard Deacon / Free Assembly pořádané ve druhém patře Městské knihovny (13. 4. - 17. 9. 2017). Připravila Galerie hlavního města Prahy a Julian Heynen, kurátor výstavy. Richard Deacon (nar.1949) je držitelem v pořadí 4. Turnerovy ceny z roku 1987 a řádu Britského impéria. Jeho sochařské dílo patří od osmdesátých let k nejvýznamnějším nejen v rámci silné generace anglických tvůrců, jako jsou Antony Gormley, Anish Kapoor, Alison Wilding, Tony Cragg a další, ale také k nejvýraznějším a nejsledovanějším v celosvětovém měřítku. Svědčí o tom řada jeho výstav v předních výstavních institucích všech kontinentů, i mnohé monumentální realizace od Kalifornie až po Tokio.

Riotous Assembly - Tom Sharpe
When Miss Hazelstone of Jacaranda Park kills her Zulu cook in a sensational crime passionel, the gallant members of the South African police force are soon on the scene: Kommandant van Heerden, whose secret longing for the heart of an English gentleman leads to the most memorable transplant operation yet recorded; Luitenant Verkramp of the Security Branch, ever active in the pursuit of Communist cells; Konstabel Els, with his propensity for shooting first and not thinking later - and also for forcing himself upon African women in a manner legally reserved for male members of their own race. In the course of the strange events which follow, we encounter some very esoteric perversions when the Kommandant is held captive in Miss Hazelstone''s remarkable rubber room; and some even more amazing perversions of justice when Miss Hazelstone''s brother, the Bishop of Barotseland, is sentenced to be hanged on the ancient gallows in the local prison. Not a ''political'' novel in any previously imagined sense, Riotous Assembly provided a completely fresh approach to the South African scene - an approach startling in its deadpan savagery and yet also outrageously funny.

Dívka s vášní pro indigo - Natasha Boydová
Píše se rok 1739. Elize Lucasové je pouhých šestnáct, když ji otec pověří správou tří rodinných plantáží v Jižní Karolíně, zámořské kolonii britského krále Jiřího II. Poté odpluje bojovat za slávu Koruny a jeho opuštěná choť si nepřeje nic jiného než vrátit se do Anglie. Přičinlivá dcera se sice hospodaření ujme nehledě na překážky, jenže osud podle všeho kráčí matčinu přání vstříc. Eliza záhy čelí hrozbě, že Lucasovi přijdou o všechno, avšak odmítne se vzdát. Sotva se dívka dozví, kolik Francouzi platí za indigové barvivo, nabude přesvědčení, že právě jeho produkce je klíčem k záchraně. Okolí ale jejímu snu nevěří, v pěstování původně západoafrické rostliny se žádný běloch nevyzná a vzpurná otrokyně se s ní o taje výroby úchvatně modré barvy odmítá podělit. Hrdinka zjišťuje, že jejími spojenci v bitvě o čas jsou jen starý zahradník ze sousedství, šťastně ženatý právník z města a černošský mladík, s nímž Eliza uzavře neslýchanou dohodu. On ji naučí indigo zpracovávat a ona jeho druhy - navzdory dobovým zákonům - naučí číst. Natasha Boydová oživila skutečný příběh dámy, která nemálo přispěla k emancipaci budoucích Spojených států. Na základě archivních materiálů i osobní korespondence román osvětluje jak poměry panující na tehdejším Jihu, vyznačující se bezprávím vůči ženám i otrokům, tak Elizin vnitřní život. Život provázený podlými intrikami, mužskou nadřazeností, zakázaným vztahem - a především ohromnou odvahou.

50 lží, ktoré vytvárali históriu sveta - Natasha Tidd
Historička Natasha Tidd berie čitateľov na globálnu cestu ľudskými dejinami a skúma, ako môžu lži zmeniť svet okolo nás, od podvodných PR kampaní Gaia Iulia Caesara až po zatajovanie udalostí, ktoré vyústilo do Černobyľu.Opisuje historické nepravdy, úmyselné lži, podvrhy a falzifikáty, ktoré spôsobili stáročia trvajúce konflikty a útlak (napríklad Sionské protokoly či záhadný testament Petra Veľkého), a masové politické a mediálne utajovania vrátane britských koncentračných táborov počas búrskej vojny, Pulitzerovou cenou oceneného vymazania hladomoru na Ukrajine a neslávne známej Dreyfusovej aféry vo Francúzsku. Popritom skúma, ako náš výklad histórie môže zmeniť fikciu na skutočnosť (prípad klamlivého dedičstva španielskej inkvizície či démonizácie čínskej cisárovnej) a tiež, ako môžu historické lži ovplyvniť naše životy aj dnes (napríklad smrteľný odkaz amerického experimentu Tuskegee).Kniha 50 lží, ktoré vytvárali históriu sveta podrobne opisuje hlboký vplyv tejto utajovanej stránky dejín a ukazuje, že pravda je často prekvapujúcejšia – a oveľa nebezpečnejšia – ako akákoľvek fikcia.

Gut and Psychology Syndrome - Natasha Campbell-McBride
Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride set up The Cambridge Nutrition Clinic in 1998. As a parent of a child diagnosed with learning disabilities, she is acutely aware of the difficulties facing other parents like her, and she has devoted much of her time to helping these families. She realized that nutrition played a critical role in helping children and adults to overcome their disabilities, and has pioneered the use of probiotics in this field. Her willingness to share her knowledge has resulted in her contributing to many publications, as well as presenting at numerous seminars and conferences on the subjects of learning disabilities and digestive disorders. Her book Gut and Psychology Syndrome captures her experience and knowledge, incorporating her most recent work. She believes that the link between learning disabilities, the food and drink that we take, and the condition of our digestive system is absolute, and the results of her work have supported her position on this subject. In her clinic, parents discuss all aspects of their child's condition, confident in the knowledge that they are not only talking to a professional but to a parent who has lived their experience. Her deep understanding of the challenges they face puts her advice in a class of its own.
