Ravishing and provocative. ⠔Olivia Laing *** Stunning and powerful. ⠔André AcimanThe example of the Greek philosopher Diogenes, who lived ⠜a dog⠙s life,⠝ sleeping, teaching, having sex in the public square, sets the tone for this extraordinary, genre-bending memoir. Posing crucial questions about what drives certain individuals to risk physical suffering in the name of freedom, Bite Your Friends also asks what we ourselves might learn from such examples to become braver, more authentic individuals.From a Roman amphitheatre in the 4th century, where martyrs are fed to wild beasts, to the S M leather bars of New York in the 1970s and the programmatic defiance of groups like Pussy Riot, this sinuous and illuminating mix of memoir and social history explores the lives of uncommonly brave men and women⠔saints, philosophers, artists⠔who have used their own wounded or stigmatized bodies to challenge society⠙s mores and entrenched power structures. Running through her narrative of the body militant is Eberstadt⠙s own story and the vivid story of her mother, a New York writer and socialite of the 1960s, whose illness-scarred body first led Eberstadt to seek connections between beauty, belief, and the truths taught through the body.

Fernando Pessoa s The Book of Disquiet is a modernist masterwork that has now taken on a similar iconic status to Ulysses, The Trial or In Search of Lost Time. This complete and unabridged edition â “ published in Penguin Modern Classics - is edited and translated with an introduction by Richard Zenith The best English-language version we are likely to see for a long time, if ever - The Guardian*Winner of the Calouste Gulbenkian Translation Prize for Portuguese Translation* Fernando Pessoa, strictly speaking, doesn t exist, - so claimed Alvaro de Campos, one of the heteronyms , fully-realised substitute personalities invented by Fernando Pessoa to spare himself the trouble of living real life. In this extraordinary book, the putative factless autobiography of an accountant named Bernardo Soares, Fernando Pessoa explores and dismantles the nature of memory, identity, time and narrative, creating one of the greatest - but also the strangest - modernist texts. An assembly of sometimes-linked fragments, The Book of Disquiet is a mesmerising, haunting novel without parallel in any other culture.This edition includes notes on the reconstruction of the text, appendices containing material omitted from the final version and letters which Pessoa intended to incorporate into the text. This edition also includes a table of the heteronyms used by Pessoa in his writing.Fernando Pessoa (1888â “ 1935) was born in Lisbon but went to live in Durban, South Africa, at the age of seven. He returned to Lisbon in 1905. A prolific writer who ascribed much of his work to a variety of personas, or heteronyms, Pessoa published relatively little of his vast output and supported himself by writing letters in English for importâ “ export firms. Although acknowledged as an intellectual and a poet, his literary genius went largely unrecognized until after his death.Richard Zenith lives in Lisbon, where he works as a freelance writer, researcher and translator. He has edited and translated many works by Fernando Pessoa, including A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe â “ Selected Poems. His Pessoa: An Experimental Life was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Biography.

This definitive biography of rap supergroup, Wu-Tang Clan, features decades of unpublished interviews and unparalleled access to members of the group and their associates.This is the definitive biography of rap supergroup and cultural icons, Wu-Tang Clan (WTC). Heralded as one of the most influential groups in modern music—hip hop or otherwise—WTC created a rap dynasty on the strength of seven gold and platinum albums that launched the careers of such famous rappers as RZA, GZA, Ol #39; Dirty Bastard, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, and more. During the ‘90s, they ushered in a hip-hop renaissance, rescuing rap from the corporate suites and bringing it back to the gritty streets where it started. In the process they changed the way business was conducted in an industry known for exploiting artists. Creatively, Wu-Tang pushed the boundaries of the artform dedicating themselves to lyrical mastery and sonic innovation, and one would be hard pressed to find a group who #39;s had a bigger impact on the evolution of hip hop.S.H. Fernando Jr., a veteran music journalist who spent a significant amount of time with The Clan during their heyday of the ‘90s, has written extensively about the group for such publications as Rolling Stone, Vibe, and The Source. Over the years he has built up a formidable Wu-Tang archive that includes pages of unpublished interviews, videos of the group in action in the studio, and several notepads of accumulated memories and observations. Using such exclusive access as well as the wealth of open-source material, Fernando reconstructs the genesis and evolution of the group, delving into their unique ideology and range of influences, and detailing exactly how they changed the game and established a legacy that continues to this day. The book provides a startling portrait of overcoming adversity through self-empowerment and brotherhood, giving us unparalleled insights into what makes these nine young men from the ghetto tick. While celebrating the myriad accomplishments of The Clan, the book doesn #39;t shy away from controversy—we #39;re also privy to stories from their childhoods in the crack-infested hallways of Staten Island housing projects, stints in Rikers for gun possession, and million-dollar contracts that led to recklessness and drug overdoses (including Ol #39; Dirty Bastard #39;s untimely death). More than simply a history of a single group, this book tells the story of a musical and cultural shift that started on the streets of Shaolin (Staten Island) and quickly spread around the world.Biographies on such an influential outfit are surprisingly few, mostly focused on a single member of the group #39;s story. This book weaves together interviews from all the Clan members, as well as their friends, family and collaborators to create a compelling narrative and the most three-dimensional portrait of Wu-Tang to date. It also puts The Clan within a social, cultural, and historical perspective to fully appreciate their impact and understand how they have become the cultural icons they are today. Unique in its breadth, scope, and access, From The Streets of Shaolin is a must-have for fans of WTC and music bios in general.

Býval to nejlepší gothamský policajt. Teď je z něj Temný rytíř. Jima Gordona nikdy nenapadlo, že se ocitne v kůži svého někdejšího spojence i protivníka a že převezme roli Batmana. Nyní, když je sám tváří pod maskou, zjišťuje, že riziko, které to obnáší, je mnohem větší, než si kdy myslel. Větší bude ale i odměna. Nyní se Gordon nemusí řídit předpisy a nařízeními platnými pro Gothamskou policii, a má tak sílu dořešit své staré případy, pomoct svým starým kamarádům a zaútočit přímo na nepřítele. Ale minulost se umí ozvat, a i když teď Jim zaujímá v boji proti zločinu jinou roli, duchové starých časů se hlásí o slovo. Mučedníci a magoři, mariňáci a magie, mordy a mely - pokud chce být Gordon strážcem Gothamu, musí se s nimi se všemi vypořádat… K týmu, který tvoří PETER J. TOMASI a FERNANDO PASARIN, se v deváté knize BATMAN: DETECTIVE COMICS: GORDON VE VÁLCE přidala celá plejáda nejlepších komiksových tvůrců.

Šamanka je mrtvá. Někdo ji zavraždil. Nejde ovšem o to kdo, ale proč. Každý by si našel důvod - zpackaný potrat, peníze, drogy, ponížení, zoufalství. Příběhy obyvatel zapadlého městečka v karibské části Mexika jsou naléhavým a surovým svědectvím, které se z románu hrne a valí v proudu vulgarit, nářků a nadávek. Jako by všechny postavy chtěly do každé věty vmáčknout svou bolest, vztek a bezmoc vůči světu a zároveň se nechtěly vzdát své touhy po štěstí. Mexická spisovatelka Fernanda Melchorová tuto životní realitu dobře zná. Popisuje ji mnoho let jako novinářka - za své články získala cenu mexického PEN klubu. Zná ji i jako žena, která v karibské oblasti země vyrůstala. Kniha byla přeložena do několika evropských jazyků, německý překlad získal významné ocenění Internationaler Literaturpreis a v roce 2020 byla kniha nominována na Mezinárodní Bookerovu cenu.

Fikce, mystifikace a paradoxy vyznačují literární dílo Portugalce Fernanda Pessoy (1888-1935), publikované až na výjimky teprve po autorově smrti. Dnes světově známý spisovatel se literárně představoval nejen pod svým jménem, ale zvláště v podobě imaginárních autorských osobností, obdařených originálním dílem. Sám o sobě tvrdil, že umělecky umí pouze lhát , ale náš výbor z několika okruhů Pessoovy korespondence z let 1913-1935 jej chce ukázat z jiné stránky než jen jako tvůrce roztříštěného ve slavných básnických a prozaických heteronymech (Álvaro de Campos, Ricardo Reis, Alberto Caeiro, Bernardo Soares aj.) a jako někoho, kdo nikdy nebyl , totiž jako člověka zajímavého a mnohdy pohnutého osudu. Dopisy ze tří období a tří sfér jeho života přestupují nejistou hranici lži a pravdy a vytvářejí poutavé příběhy, prožité v prvních desetiletích dvacátého století.

Spisovatel, novinář, esejista a literární kritik Fernando Iwasaki se narodil v roce 1961 v peruánské Limě. Po studiu historie obdržel stipendium v Indickém archivu v Seville (Španělsko), kde se posléze i natrvalo usadil. Iwasaki je výraznou tváří španělského kulturního života. Pracuje pro několik nadací, známý je i jako sloupkař deníků ABC, La Razón, El País a dalších. Z jeho literární tvorby je oceňovaný zejména historický román Neguijón (2005) z prostředí Limy 16. století. Je autorem řady esejů, kronik a povídek. Věnuje se také mikropovídce, čímž navazuje na dlouholetou tradici tohoto žánru v latinskoamerické a španělské literatuře. Český čtenář má nyní poprvé možnost seznámit se s jeho dílem v češtině prostřednictvím hororových mikropovídek Pohřební výbavička, v nichž rezonuje Poe, Borges, Maupassant i Henry James.Autor sám však zdůrazňuje: Také se to v nich hemží chodbami z pokojů mrtvých strýců, popudlivým přízrakem mé prababičky, mrazivým úsměvem služebné Guillerminy, krvavým krucifi xem z komody mé babičky a Sálem mrtvých, kde jsem strávil jednu neblahou noc roku 1970.

Listopad 1935. Fernando Pessoa leží na smrtelné posteli v nemocnici Sao Luís dos Franceses. Tři dny agonie, během kterých, jako v deliriu, velký portugalský básník přijímá své heteronymy, mluví s nimi, stanovuje svá poslední přání a vede dialog s fantasmaty, která ho celý život provázela. Antonio Tabucchi nám vypráví biografický příběh (byť jde o imaginární biografii), ve kterém s jemností a vášní popisuje smrt jednoho z největších spisovatelů 20. století.

The Book of Disquiet is one of the great literary works of the twentieth century. Written over the course of Fernando Pessoa s life, it was first published in 1982, pieced together from the thousands of individual manuscript pages left behind by Pessoa after his death in 1935. Now this fragmentary modernist masterpiece appears in a major new edition that unites Margaret Jull Costa s celebrated translation with the most complete version of the text ever produced. It is presented here, for the first time in English, by order of original composition, and accompanied by facsimiles of the original manuscript.Narrated principally by an assistant bookkeeper named Bernardo Soares - an alias of sorts for Pessoa himself - The Book of Disquiet is the autobiobraphy of someone who never existed , a mosaic of dreams, of hope and despair; a hymn to the streets and cafés of 1930s Lisbon, and an extraordinary record of the inner life of one of the century s most important writers. This new edition represents the most complete vision of Pessoa s genius.

Agile Strategy is a practical guide for managers responsible for setting the strategic direction of their organisations in increasingly dynamic markets. Through its frameworks, tools and real-world examples, it explains how to transform business performance through greater organisational agility. LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT STRATEGY BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION Why do we need a new book on strategy?The pace of change is increasing, and strategic management is not keeping up. More than one in four (28%) strategic initiatives fail to meet their original goals and business intent[1], with insufficient agility identified as one of the top three barriers to successful strategy implementation[2].The square peg of traditional strategy ⠔ vision, mission and blue-sky exercises; the separation of strategy from ⠜implementation⠝ ⠔ no longer fits the round hole of increasingly dynamic markets. It is time for a new approach.How is Agile Strategy different?Agile Strategy distinguishes itself from other strategy and agile books currently available in that it is: Designed for large organisations: Much of the writing on agile techniques addresses start-ups or small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which operate under very different constraints and freedoms. Agile Strategy is written for large organisations who want to be more agile. Commercially-led: The approach is not a lightly airbrushed business rewrite of agile software development practices, but rather a fundamental rethinking of commercial and operational business practices. Practical: It is anchored in innovative and robust concepts but designed as a practical ⠜how-to⠝ guide: a book for practitioners, written by a practitioner. Results-focused: Whilst addressing a broad range of organisational topics, the book is grounded in the definition and delivery of measurable business benefits. Why should I read it?Agile Strategy offers four key benefits to its readers: A clear framework ( RADAR ) A single, easy-to-grasp guiding principle: The Horizon Measurable benefits A practical approach I hope you not only enjoy reading about this innovative new approach, but also go on to realise the full potential of your organisation by implementing it.

The writing of Fernando Pessoa reveals a mind shaken by intense inner suffering. In these poems he adopted four separate personae: Alberto Caeiro, Alvaro de Campos, Ricardo Reis and himself, using them to express great swarms of thought and feeling . While each personae has its own poetic identity, together they convey a sense of ambivalence and consolidate a striving for completeness. Dramatic, lyrical, Christian, pagan, old and modern, Pessoa s poets and poetry contribute to the mysterious importance of existence .

The Witch is dead. After a group of children playing near the irrigation canals discover her decomposing corpse, the village of La Matosa is rife with rumours about how and why this murder occurred.
