Seven Pillars of Wisdom - Thomas Edward Lawrence

Seven Pillars of Wisdom is the autobiographical account of T.E. Lawrence - also known as Lawrence of Arabia - of his service in the Arab Revolt during the First World War, published in Penguin Modern Classics.Although continually and bitterly ashamed that the Arabs had risen in revolt against the Turks as a result of fraudulent British promises of self-rule, Lawrence led them in a triumphant campaign which revolutionized the art of war. Seven Pillars of Wisdom recreates epic events with extraordinary vividness. In the words of E. M. Forster, Round this tent-pole of a military chronicle, Lawrence has hung an unexampled fabric of portraits, descriptions, philosophies, emotions, adventures, dreams . However flawed, T.E. Lawrence is one of the twentieth century s most fascinating figures. This is the greatest monument to his character and achievements, and formed the basis for the Oscar-winning film Lawrence of Arabia, staring Peter O Toole and Alec Guinness.This edition includes maps, drawings by Eric Kennington, and index of place names and a preface by A.W. Lawrence.Thomas Edward Lawrence (1888-1935) was born in Wales and educated at Jesus and Magdalen Colleges, Oxford. He was commissioned on the outbreak of the First World War and in 1917 was officially attached to the staff of the Hejaz expeditionary force, under General Wingate. After the war, Lawrence was Advisor on Arab Affairs in the Middle Eastern Division of the Colonial Office. In 1927, embarrassed with the Lawrence of Arabia legend, he changed his name by deed poll to Shaw . In addition to this book, of which Lawrence lost almost the whole manuscript at Reading station in 1919, he wrote Revolt in the Desert (1927) and The Odyssey of Homer (1935), a translation in prose.If you enjoyed Lawrence of Arabia, you might also like Wilfred Thesiger s Desert Sands, available in Penguin Classics. I am not much of a hero-worshipper, but I could have followed T.E. Lawrence over the edge of the world John Buchan, author of The Thirty-Nine Steps

BEATRIX BAKES - Natalie Paull

For Natalie Paull, baking is a gift. It s also a powerful elixir of pleasure, connection, generosity and joy. In Beatrix Bakes, Natalie indulges in baking s sweetest moments with more than seventy recipes inspiring bakers of all kinds to mix and match to make recipes their own – whether it s a lemon curd cream crepe cake or pecan maple cinnamon scrolls.Sparkling with Natalie s distinct voice, and packaged with full-colour photography, illustrations and rock-solid tips for a perfect bake, Beatrix Bakes also includes Adaptrix suggestions (offering ways readers might do things differently, including short cuts) and is peppered with infographics to help them follow their baking heart. Try The Cheesecake (That You Will Love The Most) with a crumb base, or a bought biscuit base, or no base, or a sponge base, or even a failed cookie base! And from there, pick a topping from sour cream, to crumb, to fruity bits. The recipes are divided across eight chapters: Doughs, Pastries Crusts; Tarts, Pies, a Crostata a Galette; The Cake List; One in the Hand; Yeasted Bakes; Fruit-full; Creams, Custards, Fillings, Glazes and Buttercreams; and Finishing Touches.While Natalie s creations are inspired by classics the world over, they are irreverent too, and in Beatrix Bakes she delights in showing readers that – once they get the foundations right – the truest magic will come from a willingness to play (with the insurance of her many clever ideas and back-up plans in their apron pocket!).Beatrix Bakes will guide anyone who loves the adventure of baking to perfect their skills and break the baking mould.

D. H. Lawrence and Italy - D. H. Lawrence

In these impressions of the Italian countryside, Lawrence transforms ordinary incidents into passages of intense beauty.Twilight in Italy is a vibrant account of Lawrence s stay among the people of Lake Garda, whose decaying lemon gardens bear witness to the twilight of a way of life centuries old. In Sea and Sardina, Lawrence brings to life the vigorous spontaneity of a society as yet untouched by the deadening effect of industrialization. And Etruscan Places is a beautiful and delicate work of literary art, the record of a dying man drinking from the founts of a civilization dedicated to life.

The Complete Poems of D.H. Lawrence - David Herbert Lawrence

With an Introduction and Notes by David Ellis, University of Kent at Canterbury.Lawrence s reputation as a novelist has often meant that his achievements in poetry have failed to receive the recognition they deserve. This edition brings together, in a form he himself sanctioned, his Collected Poems of 1928, the unexpurgated version of Pansies, and Nettles, adding to these volumes the contents of the two notebooks in which he was still writing poetry when he died in 1930.It therefore allows the reader to trace the development of Lawrence as a poet and appreciate the remarkable originality and distinctiveness of his achievement. Not all the poems reprinted here are masterpieces but there is more than enough quality to confirm Lawrence s status as one of the greatest English writers of the twentieth century.

The Dark Side of Prague - Natálie Kocábová

Mladí bývají neklidní. S Natálií Kocábovou (1984) tomu nebylo jinak: prvotina v osmnácti, ve třiadvaceti pět knížek. K tomu sex, drogy a rock n roll. Kdysi jsem o ní napsal do Respektu: Rychle napsat, rychle vydat - a další. Natálie rychle psala, rychle vydávala, ale pak se začala propisovat : s druhou knihou poezie (Někdo je v domě) a třetí prózou (Růže) došla sobě nadosah. Tempo zvolnilo, ohlasy a stylizace zčásti opadaly, křeč vzpoury proti všemu metamorfovala v jedinečné chvíle údivu a pokory. Změnily se stravovací návyky : lehké maso postmoderny, kterým Natálie krmila agresivní vnějškovost svého psaní, vystřídal krvavý biftek vlastního života. Snění a fantazie vypověděly službu krátkodechým účelům a sblížily se s realitou. Iracionální se umazalo o konkrétní. Šestá kniha, The Dark Side of Prague, je toho očitým svědkem: pod vrstvou křiku citlivost, za vztekem milostnost, za nenávistí láska. Kulisy globální, aktéři v pohybu za svým stínem. Hledají tajemství světa a nastavují přitom obě tváře. A kdo hledá, najde: ostrovy harmonie vyplavené na hladinu chaosu. Radim Kopáč

The Rainbow - David Herbert Lawrence

With an Introduction and Notes by Lionel Kelly, University of Reading.In 1915, Lawrence s frank representation of sexuality in The Rainbow caused a furore and the novel was seized by the police and banned almost as soon as it was published. Today it is recognised as one of the classic English novels of the twentieth century.The Rainbow is about three generations of the Brangwen family of Nottinghamshire from the 1840s to the early years of the twentieth century. Within this framework Lawrence s essential concern is with the passional lives of his characters as he explores the pressures that determine their lives, using a religious symbolism in which the rainbow of the title is his unifying motif.His primary focus is on the individual s struggle to growth and fulfilment within marriage and changing social circumstances, a process shown to grow more difficult through the generations. Young Ursula Brangwen, whose story is continued in Women in Love, is finally the central figure in Lawrence s anatomy of the confining structures of English social life and the impact of industrialisation and urbanisation on the human psyche.

We All Got Something - Lawrence Lindell

When you’re always searching, you might just surprise yourself with what you findAfter a rocky attempt at living in London with his partner, Lawrence finds himself single,broke, and back at home in Compton with his mom and great-aunt, moping from bed tokitchen table and back to bed again, with long layovers on the front porch to sit and watchthe world pass him by. Everything had been so good—a degree, an animation internship,paid music gigs, the perfect girl. How the heck did Lawrence get knocked so far down,with such little semblance of his former life remaining to hold him together? Well, that’s along story…Set to a cacophonous soundtrack of church praise, playground noise, bus-stopcamaraderie, and Pacific Ocean waves, Lawrence Lindell’s heartbreaking—andheartwarming—We All Got Something recounts a tragic and random act of violence, thePTSD that follows, lost love, and coming to terms with the underlying mental health crisessabotaging it all. A testament to the healing power of art and the vital role community playsin the process, Lindell’s graphic memoir is deeply personal and specific, but also relatable—because we all got something. The follow-up to Lindell’s Eisner-nominated and Excellence in Graphic Literature Award-winninggraphic novel Blackward, We All Got Something brings Lindell’s love of thecomics community into a different light, and shows the author exploring deeper and darkercorners of his past, with his signature blend of humor, heart, and cartoony lines.

Mixed/Other - Natalie Morris

How does it feel when your heritage isn t listed as an option on an identification form?What is it like to grow up as the only person in your family who looks like you?Where do you belong if you are simultaneously seen as being too much of one race and not enough of another to fit neatly into society s expectations?The mixed population is the fastest-growing group in the U.K. today, but the mainstream conversation around mixedness is stilted, repetitive and often problematic. At a time when ethnically ambiguous models fill our Instagram feeds and our high street shop windows, and when children of interracial relationships are lauded as heralding in the dawn of a post-racial utopia, journalist Natalie Morris takes a deep dive into what it really means to be mixed in Britain today. From blackfishing to the fetishisation of mixed babies; from the complexities of passing and code-switching to navigating the world of work and dating, Natalie explores the ways in which all of these issues uniquely impact those of mixed heritage. Drawing from a wealth of research, interviews and her own personal experiences, in Mixed/Other, Natalie s aims to dismantle the stereotypes that have plagued mixed people for generations and to amplify the voices of mixed Britons today, shining a light on the struggles and the joys that come with being mixed.

The Colour of Injustice - Lee Lawrence

Lee Lawrence was just eleven when his mother, Cherry Groce, was shot by police during a raid on the family s south London home. It was an event that would spark a violent uprising and dominate his life for the next 30 years as he fought for justice and for the police to admit their wrongdoing.Along the way, Lee came across dozens of other cases, past and present, which made it clear that the racial prejudice and bias which resulted in his mother s shooting had been in place for many decades, impacting the lives of thousands of innocent people .Through a deeply researched and fast-moving narrative, Lee Lawrence seamlessly combines historical fact with his dramatic first-hand experiences of racial injustice to present vivid stories - from the Somali sailor who was wrongly convicted of murder in Cardiff in 1952 to the assault on professional footballer Dalian Atkinson and from the hounding of Notting Hill s Mangrove Club to Black Lives Matter - that chronicle how Britain s Black community has been mistreated.Though there remains much work to be done, Lee Lawrence is also an inspiring guide who highlights the many positive changes that have taken place and outlines those still needing to be enacted. Against the backdrop of the hard-learned lessons of years gone by, The Colour of Injustice also lays the foundation for a pathway to the future to move towards a truly anti-racist society.

The Lion and the Dragon - James Lawrence

Napoleon warned Let China sleep; when she wakes, she will shake the world . Lawrence James s magisterial history analyses the relationship between Britain and China between the beginning of the Opium Wars in 1839 and the transfer of power in Hong Kong in 1997. THE LION AND THE DRAGON reveals the part that Britain played in the awakening of China, then covers relations between the two countries during the period when an aroused China did indeed shake the world. Lawrence James also follows the parallel trajectories of four competitive empires - the British, the Chinese, the Russian and the Japanese - during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and then the fortunes of a fifth imperial power, the United States. Successive British governments saw China as a source of wealth which needed to be protected. Local objections were seen off by force (the Opium wars of 1839-42, 1856-7 and 1859-60) whose results proved that the Qing emperors could not protect their country. Indian troops were deployed in each campaign and manned Britain s small garrisons in Hong Kong, Shanghai and other Treaty ports. Yet Britain never sought to make China into another India. Rather it allowed the emperors and their officials to govern, so long as they were docile and amenable to British needs. Paramount were the internal stability and fiscal responsibility that were the lubricants of trade. A unified nation with economic and military muscle, and aware of its distant past as one of the great nations of the world, has been intent on reversing her recent history. Lawrence James vividly chronicles a time when this huge nation s divisions encouraged foreigners to treat her as a treasure-house to be plundered at will. This warning from history explains why China s present rulers brook neither dissent nor popular unrest.

Divine Might - Natalie Haynesová

New York Times bestselling author Natalie Haynes returns to the world of ancient Greek myth in this scintillating follow-up to Pandora’s Jar.Few writers today have reshaped our view of the ancient Greek myths more than revered bestselling author Natalie Haynes. Divine Might is a female-centered look at Olympus and the Furies, focusing on the goddesses whose prowess, passions, jealousies, and desires rival those of their male kin, including:Athene, who sprang fully formed from her father’s brow (giving Zeus a killer headache in the process), the goddess of war and provider of wise counsel.Aphrodite, born of the foam (and sperm released from a Titan’s castrated testicles), the most beautiful of all the Olympian goddesses, the epitome of love who dispenses desire and inspires longing—yet harbors a fearsome vengeful side, doling out brutal punishments to those who displease her.Hera, Zeus’s long-suffering wife, whose jealousy born of his repeated dalliances with mortals, nymphs, and other goddesses, leads her to wreak elaborate and often painful revenge on those she believes have wronged her. (Well, wouldn’t you?)Demeter, goddess of the harvest and mother of Persephone; Artemis, the hunter and goddess of wild spaces; the Muses, the nine daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory; and Hestia, goddess of domesticity and sacrificial fire.Infused with Haynes’s engaging charm and irrepressible wit, Divine Might is a refreshing take on the legends and stories we thought we knew.
