Další kniha držitele Pulitzerovy ceny a autora mezinárodních bestsellerů The Virgin Suicides a Middlesex (česky Hermafrodit, BB art), jedna z nejočekávanějších literárních událostí dekády. Madeleine Hannaová je svědomitá anglická studentka, která trochu zaspala dobu. Zatímco počátkem 80. let všichni čtou Derridu, ona se šťastně noří do díla Jane Austenové a George Eliotové: šiřitelek manželských pletich, jež jsou hlavním tématem nejvýznamnějších anglických románů. Madeleine se podle názoru svých bohémštějších přátel obléká trochu příliš "hezky a úhledně"; je to dobrá kamarádka, ale i když je hezká, její milostný život na vysoké škole tak úplně nesplňuje očekávání. Na jaře svého posledního roku na vysoké škole se Madeleine zapíše do kurzu sémiotiky, aby zjistila, "o čem to všichni pořád mluví". A z důvodů, které nemají nic společného se školou, už život ani literatura nikdy nebudou stejné. Nebudou stejné poté, co se zamiluje do Leonarda Mortena - charismatického osamělého muže, darwinisty a ztraceného oregonského hocha -, člověka se zdánlivě nevyčerpatelnou energií. A už vůbec ne poté, co se v jejím životě znovu objeví Mitchell Grammaticus, jenž je posedlý myšlenkou, že Madeleine je stvořena k tomu, aby se stala jeho partnerkou. Trojúhelník v tomto ohromujícím a úžasném románu o generaci, která začíná stárnout, je odvěký, ale ... Unknown localization key: "more"

William Shakespeare is a global icon for his plays such as Hamlet, Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet, but his poetic meditations on love are among the most powerful and evocative poems ever written. This Penguin Classics edition of Sonnets and A Lover''s Complaint is edited by John Kerrigan.''Shall I compare thee to a summer''s day?''The language of Shakespeare''s sonnets has become inseparable from the language of love in English; but the force and tenderness of these poems is undiminished by age. When this volume of Shakespeare''s poems first appeared in 1609, he had already written most of the great plays that made him famous. The 154 sonnets - all but two of which are addressed to a beautiful young man, ''Mr W.H.'', or a treacherous ''dark lady'' - contain some of the most exquisite and haunting poetry ever written, and deal with eternal subjects such as love and infidelity, memory and mortality, and the destruction wreaked by Time. Also included is A Lover''s Complaint, originally published with the sonnets, in which a young woman is overheard lamenting her betrayal by a heartless seducer.In his illuminating introduction, John Kerrigan examines how the sonnets are intertwined, the ways in which these works ...

The House by the Dvina is the riveting story of two families separated in culture and geography but bound together by a Russian-Scottish marriage. It includes episodes as romantic and dramatic as any in fiction: the purchase by the author''s great-grandfather of a peasant girl with whom he had fallen in love; the desperate sledge journey in the depths of winter made by her grandmother to intercede with Tsar Aleksandr II for her husband; the extraordinary courtship of her parents; and her Scottish granny being caught up in the abortive revolution of 1905. Eugenie Fraser herself was brought up in Russia but was taken on visits to Scotland. She marvellously evokes a child''s reactions to two totally different environments, sets of customs and family backgrounds, while the characters are beautifully drawn and splendidly memorable. With the events of 1914 to 1920 - the war with Germany, the Revolution, the murder of the Tsar and the withdrawal of the Allied Intervention in the north - came the disintegration of Russia and of family life. The stark realities of hunger, deprivation and fear are sharply contrasted with the adventures of childhood. The reader shares the family''s suspense and concern about the fates ...

In Complaint! Sara Ahmed examines what we can learn about power from those who complain about abuses of power. Drawing on oral and written testimonies from academics and students who have made complaints about harassment, bullying, and unequal working conditions at universities, Ahmed explores the gap between what is supposed to happen when complaints are made and what actually happens. To make complaints within institutions is to learn how they work and for whom they work: complaint as feminist pedagogy. Ahmed explores how complaints are made behind closed doors and how doors are often closed on those who complain. To open these doors---to get complaints through, keep them going, or keep them alive---Ahmed emphasizes, requires forming new kinds of collectives. This book offers a systematic analysis of the methods used to stop complaints and a powerful and poetic meditation on what complaints can be used to do. Following a long lineage of Black feminist and feminist of color critiques of the university, Ahmed delivers a timely consideration of how institutional change becomes possible and why it is necessary.

A coming-of-age tale from one of the most successful American producers of our time, Jeffrey Seller, who is the only producer to have mounted two Pulitzer Prize–winning musicals—Hamilton and Rent. Before he was producing the musical hits of our generation, Jeffrey was just a kid coming to terms with his adoption, trying to understand his sexuality, and determined to escape his dysfunctional household in a poor neighborhood just outside Detroit. We see him find his voice through musical theater and move to New York, where he is determined to shed his past and make a name for himself on Broadway. But moving to the big city is never easy—especially not at the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis—and Jeffrey learns to survive and thrive in the colorful and cutthroat world of commercial theatre. From his early days as an office assistant, to meeting Jonathan Larson and experiencing the triumph and tragedy of Rent, to working with Lin-Manuel Miranda on In the Heights and Hamilton, Jeffrey completely pulls back the curtain on the joyous and gut-wrenching process of making new musicals, finding new audiences, and winning a Tony Award—all the while finding himself.

Inspired by leaders such as Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson, the online Manosphere has exploded in recent years. Dedicated to anti-feminism, these communities have orchestrated online campaigns of misogynistic harassment, with some individuals going as far as committing violent terrorist attacks. Although the Manosphere has become a focus point of the media, researchers and governments alike, discussions tend to either over-sensationalize the community or offer simplistic explanations for their existence. This book uses a mixture of historical and economic analysis, alongside actual Manosphere content, to delve deeper. With The Male Complaint, Simon James Copland explains how the Manosphere has developed and why it appeals to so many men. He argues that the Manosphere is not an aberration, but is deeply embedded within mainstream, neoliberal, social structures. For a cohort of alienated men, the promise of community provides a space of understanding, connection and purpose. This insightful book dares to dig into the corners of incel communities and online spaces where misogyny thrives. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand, and do something about, this growing and worrying phenomenon.

Činí tak prostřednictvím různých dotazníků, cvičení a námětů k zamyšlení, které mají vést k sebereflexi a zároveň k tomu, že terapeut si vede zápisky, které shrnují jeho vlastní práci. Kottlerovým cílem je, aby si terapeut-čtenář ujasnil, co se mu na vlastní práci lidí a nelíbí, v souvislosti s tím si stanovil cíle na zlepšení a vytvořil plán změny, takže jeho vlastní práce bude efektivnější a zároveň jej bude více uspokojovat. Bez ohledu na míru jejich zkušenosti má tato kniha terapeutům pomoci: odhalovat vlastní zdroje stresu a konfliktů; oživovat motivaci a kreativitu; pracovat s protipřenosem nebo s intenzivními vztahy; léčit osobní rány; zlepšovat klinické dovednosti; zvyšovat efektivitu; zvyšovat osobní vliv; přenášet terapeutické dovednosti do osobního života; integrovat osobní a profesní dimenzi života tak, že kvalita terapeutova života bude vyšší.
