Girls that Never Die - Safia Elhillo
''Incredibly moving ... Every single poem is stellar'' Roxane Gay, author of Difficult Women and Hunger____________________________________________In Girls That Never Die, award-winning poet Safia Elhillo reinvents the epic to explore Muslim girlhood and shame, the dangers of being a woman, and the myriad violences enacted and imagined against women’s bodies. Drawing from her own life and family histories, as well as cultural myths and news stories about honor killings and genital mutilation, she interlaces the everyday traumas of growing up a girl under patriarchy with magical realist imaginings of rebellion, autonomy, and power. Elhillo writes a new world: women escape their stonings by birds that carry the rocks away; slain girls grow into two, like the hydra of lore, sprouting too numerous to ever be eradicated; circles of women are deemed holy, protected. Ultimately, Girls That Never Die is about wrestling ourselves from the threats of violence that constrain our lives, and instead looking to freedom and questioning: [what if i will not die][what will govern me then]____________________________________________''Elhillo''s is a voice that walks into the future'' Ilya Kaminsky''Brilliant. And fierce'' Aracelis Girmay''An astonishment'' Tracy K. Smith

The Game That Never Ends - Julien Mailland
A guide to the fascinating legal history of the videogame industry, written for nonlawyers.Why did a judge recall FIFA 15, a nonviolent soccer game, from French shelves in 2014? Why was Vodka Drunkenski, a character in Nintendo-Japan’s Punch-Out!, renamed Soda Popinski in the US and then in Western Europe, where the pun made no sense? Why was a Dutch-American company barred by US courts from distributing a clone of Pac-Man? Julien Mailland answers all these questions and more in The Game That Never Ends, an inside look at the legal history that undergirds our favorite videogames. Drawing on a series of case studies as vignettes of the human comedy, Mailland sheds light on why and how the role of lawyers is key for understanding the videogame industry.Each chapter in The Game That Never Ends is a mini-puzzle that pieces together how an important legal issue arose, was resolved, and impacted the industry and the experience of gamers in real time. These chapters are interspersed with shorter chapters called “The Lawyer’s Corner,” opportunities to dive deeper into individual cases. Lightly footnoted, these interludes connect the previous chapters together by providing a conceptual meta-analysis. Offering a comprehensive overview of the global legal ...

Brazil That Never Was - A.J. Lees
A famed British neurologist embarks on an expedition in Brazil to follow the trail of Percy Fawcett, an occult-obsessed explorer who went missing in the Amazon rainforest and was the subject of the 2016 film The Lost City of Z.As a boy growing up near Liverpool in the 1950s, Andrew Lees would visit the docks with his father to watch the ships from Brazil unload their exotic cargo of coffee, cotton bales, molasses, and cocoa. One day, his father gave him a dog-eared book called Exploration Fawcett. The book told the true story of Lieutenant Colonel Percy Fawcett, a British explorer who in 1925 had gone in search of a lost city in the Amazon and never returned. The riveting story of Fawcett''s encounters with deadly animals and hostile tribes, his mission to discover an Atlantean civilization, and the many who lost their own lives when they went in search of him inspired the young Lees to believe that there were still earthly places where one could "fall off the edge."Years later, after becoming a successful neurologist, Lees set off in search of the mysterious figure of Fawcett. What he found exceeded his wildest imaginings. With access to the cache ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Titanic: The Ship That Never Sank? - Robin Gardiner
In 1912 the unthinkable happened - the supposedly unsinkable Titanic sank after hitting an iceberg, or so it was thought. In this bestselling book author Robin Gardiner claims that it was not in fact the Titanic but the sister ship, the Olympic, which finished its days sinking in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on that fateful night. His contention is that what happened was an insurance scam perpetrated by the White Star line which may have involved the possible collusion by the British government in the cover-up. On 20 September 1911, the Olympic was involved in a collision with the Royal Navy Warship HMS Hawke in Southampton Water. Olympic was found to be to blame in the collision. Because of this finding, White Star''s insurers allegedly refused to pay out on the claim. As this would amount to a serious financial loss for the company, it is alleged that, to make sure at least one vessel would be earning money, the badly damaged Olympic was patched up and then converted to become the Titanic. The real Titanic when complete would then quietly enter service as the Olympic. To dispose of the Olympic, which had allegedly been damaged beyond ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Question that Never Goes Away - Philip Yancey
Some days, the news seems too much to bear. Yet another tsunami or earthquake or flood or fire or war atrocity. One more gun-toting madman stalking young people in idyllic Norway or moviegoers in Colorado or schoolchildren in Newtown, Connecticut. We turn off the news only to get a phone call about expectant parents with a stillborn baby, or a loved one whose cancer has returned. If we have faith in God, it gets shaken to the core. What was God doing in the moment when that tragedy could have been prevented? If we can''t trust God to keep our children safe or our loved ones from dying in agony, what can we trust God for?In his classic book WHERE IS GOD WHEN IT HURTS?, Philip Yancey gave us permission to doubt, reasons not to abandon faith, and practical ways to reach out to hurting people. Now, with new perspectives and stories gathered across nearly twenty-five years, once again he tackles the hard questions head-on. His visits to three places in 2012 raised the old problems with new urgency.

Waiting for Something That Never Arrived - Dan Shanahan
Současný politický diskurs v USA - a i v dalších průmyslových demokraciích - byl až doposud založen na bezmezné víře v "prosperitu", která pramenila z pocitu vítězství nad chudobou a zápasem o přežití. Dnes, když demokracie získala spíše materiální rozměr, se již málo bavíme o tom, kam by měla vlastně směrovat. Stejně tak se neptáme na otázku, jaký vztah by ve skutečnosti měl být mezi menšinou lidstva, která si užívá prosperity a většinou , která k prosperitě přístup nemá. Kniha Waiting for Something That Never Arrived vychází z několika výměn názorů mezi autorem a nedávno zesnulým britským historikem Tony Judtem a postupně se snaží o vybudování filosofického základu pro progresivní myšlení a rozvážnou politickou diskuzi. Kniha je v anglickém jazyce. Autor knihy Dan Shanahan je profesorem komunikace na Fakultě humanitních studií Univerzity Karlovy v Praze. Působil na fakultách Monterey Institute of International Studies v Kalifornii a na Ecole des hautes etudes commerciales v Paříži. Dvakrát také přednášel v rámci stipendií Fulbrightova programu. Je autorem knih Towards a Genealogy of Individualism (UMass Press, 1992) a Language, Feeling and the Brain (Transaction Publishers, 2007).

To this day, they were, their fans believe, the best band in the world. Critics and sales figures told a similar story. Yet for all their brilliance and adoration – their famously energetic live shows routinely interrupted by stage invasions – The Smiths were continually plagued by their reticence to play the game, and by the time of 1987’s Strangeways Here We Come, they had split. Tony Fletcher’s A Light That Never Goes Out – part celebration, part paean – moves from Manchester in the nineteenth-century to the present day to tell the complete story of The Smiths. The product of extensive research and unprecedented access, it will serve to confirm The Smiths as one of the most important and influential rock groups of all time.

Dance Or Die - Holly Dicker
What is hardcore? It means many things to many people, and they''re all correct. It''s best described as a feeling, an attitude, a way of life. Hardcore began as an apocalyptic vision of the ''phuture'' that has since come to pass, and a do it yourself rave movement that never stopped or backed down. Hardcore is revolutionary and underground - and a mass marketed phenomenon that refuses to die, because hardcore will never die. Its symbols have been tattooed onto millions of bodies, and its relics passed down through generations. This book tracks those outsider youth who banded together en masse, as a crew, to party in protest, on ecstasy, in rage and escape, as a nighttime community, more family than family, who need this hard, loud, fast/slow, aggressive, noisy (occasionally silly) kickdrum and breakbeat music to connect with people, to survive the world, and get through the week. Hardcore: Either you''re in, or you''re out. And if you''re in, you''re in all the way, diehard and dancing to the death. Dance or Die!

Daniel sits on a clifftop in the aftermath of a party at Fin''s mansion, looking out over a junky sea.

To find out, Daniel must tell Fin the story of their childhood, going back to a small salt-mining town in The North, a visit from their now-estranged cousin Crystal, and the life and losses of their salt-miner father, Mika. Taking us from bus shelters to playgrounds to McDonalds, from the depth of a salt mine to a nightclub toilet, Daniel describes their world of soap operas, sunglasses, newspaper clippings and Princess Diana, steering Fin through the events that led up to The Great Subsidence, when their town and the mine that sustained it collapsed.

He''s never had much time for salvation by soundbite, and Charlston''s notoriety is attracting the attention of reporter Donna Blake, who''s asking more questions than Connor has answers for. But when an old colleague of Donna''s is found brutally bludgeoned to death, and the start of Charleston''s weekend of salvation becomes a literal trial by fire, Connor must race to unmask a killer whose savagery is only matched by their cunning.Praise for Neil Broadfoot: ''Cracking pace, satisfyingly twisty plot.

Never Will I Die - Michael Calvin, Toby Gutteridge
There''s no pain, no theatrical agony. No screaming, no shouting. The kill shot is catastrophic and conclusive. I slump silently on to my knees and topple forward, head first, into the dirt. The lads have seen enough death to assume mine is instantaneous. The lights are out. That''s him gone.Toby Gutteridge was only 24 when he was shot through the neck while operating behind enemy lines in Afghanistan. He survived despite not breathing for at least 20 minutes. Back in the UK, doctors recommended that his life support machine be switched off, but with the defiant spirit that would define his recovery, Toby pulled through.Now quadriplegic, capable of movement only with his head, Toby has rebuilt his life. His is an extraordinary story of survival against overwhelming odds, and of the power of the human spirit to overcome extreme adversity. Brutally honest and authentic, he builds a compelling picture of the type of person produced by the Special Forces system, and tells of how one split second changed the course of his life forever.Powerful and inspiring, Never Will I Die is a universal story about our search for purpose, and explores what extreme experience teaches us about what truly matters.
