House of Lilies - Justine Firnhaber-Baker

A mighty, panoramic history⠦ Firnhaber-Baker does a real service for those with an interest in France and England alike by providing a dexterous and engrossing account, a treasury for anyone with an interest in the royal, political and religious worlds of the high medieval period Daily TelegraphThe sweeping story of one of the great epics of Europe s history: the rise and rise of the dynasty that dominated the Middle AgesStarting in the tenth century from an insecure foothold around Paris, the Capetians built a nation that stretched from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean and from the Rhône to the Pyrenees. They founded practices and institutions that endured until the Revolution, transformed Paris from a muddy backwater to a splendid metropole, and popularized the fleur-de-lys, the lily, as the emblem of France. Time and again, their opponents woefully misjudged who they were up against, as through guile, ruthlessness, luck and marriage the Capetians disposed of them all. This is the story of the most powerful kingdom in Christendom. It is a tale of religious upheaval, heroism, adulterous affairs, holy wars, pogroms and persecution. From Hugh Capet to Eleanor of Aquitaine, the Capetians were men and women of vision and ambition, who considered themselves chosen by God to fulfil a great destiny. They did not simply rule France: they created it. House of Lilies is a highly enjoyable account of this extraordinary sequence of events, set against one of the great eras in the history of western Europe. Justine Firnhaber-Baker brilliantly conveys not only the cultural effervescence of the French court, but also the intellectual achievements, the battles and the religious fervour, as well as the series of catastrophes that led to the dynasty s ultimate demise.

I Love Dick - Chris Kraus

When Chris Kraus, an unsuccessful artist pushing 40, spends an evening with a rogue academic named Dick, she falls madly and inexplicably in love, enlisting her husband in her haunted pursuit. Dick proposes a kind of game between them, but when he fails to answer their letters Chris continues alone, transforming an adolescent infatuation into a new form of philosophy. Blurring the lines of fiction, essay and memoir, Chris Kraus s novel was a literary sensation when it was first published in 1997. Widely considered to be the most important feminist novel of the past two decades, I Love Dick is still essential reading; as relevant, fierce and funny as ever.

Give My Love to the Savages - Chris Stuck

“A harrowing portrait of race relations in America, as beautiful as it is urgent.”—Entertainment Weekly“Black satire with bite, like Zora Neale Hurston used to do, with a smile and a sharp elbow. A touch of Paul Beatty, a dose of Dolemite, and a serving of Dorothy Parker, too. Give My Love to the Savages announces Chris Stuck as a fearless talent, a debut that ll make your sides and your heart hurt.”—Victor LaValle, author of The Changeling“Give My Love To The Savages is a wildly inventive collection of provocative stories about navigating the minefield of black masculinity in America. Stuck’s fresh and fearless perspective overturns assumptions about race and identity to reveal complex layers of absurdity. At times merciless, always darkly funny, these are stories of unexpected communion, connection, and compassion.”—Chanelle Benz, author of The Gone DeadA provocative and raw debut collection of short fiction reminiscent of Junot Diaz’s Drown. A Black man’s life, told in scenes—through every time he’s been called nigger. A Black son who visits his estranged white father in Los Angeles just as the ’92 riots begin. A Black Republican, coping with a skin disease that has turned him white, is forced to reconsider his life. A young Black man, fetishized by an older white woman he’s just met, is offered a strange and tempting proposal. The nine tales in Give My Love to the Savages illuminate the multifaceted Black experience, exploring the thorny intersections of race, identity, and Black life through an extraordinary cast of characters. From the absurd to the starkly realistic, these stories take aim at the ironies and contradictions of the American racial experience. Chris Stuck traverses the dividing lines, and attempts to create meaning from them in unique and unusual ways. Each story considers a marker of our current culture, from uprisings and sly and not-so-sly racism, to Black fetishization and conservatism, to the obstacles placed in front of Black masculinity and Black and interracial relationships by society and circumstance.Setting these stories across America, from Los Angeles, Phoenix and the Pacific Northwest, to New York and Washington, DC, to the suburbs and small Midwestern towns, Stuck uses place to expose the absurdity of race and the odd ways that Black people and white people converge and retreat, rub against and bump into one another.Ultimately, Give My Love to the Savages is the story of America. With biting humor and careful honesty, Stuck riffs on the dichotomy of love and barbarity—the yin and yang of racial experience—and the difficult and uncertain terrain Black Americans must navigate in pursuit of their desires.

I Love Dick - Chris Kraus

Revoluční román americké kritičky, filmařky a spisovatelky Chris Kraus odhalující machismus newyorské intelektuální scény sedmdesátých, osmdesátých a devadesátých let. Kniha která vypráví o tom, jaké to je být ženou umělkyní se nikterak neobtěžuje zakrývat svou autobiografičnost. Když svět upírá ženám právo vyslovovat se k věcem neosobním - vyslovuje se Chris Kraus, kterou newyorská kulturní scéna, jíž vládnou muži, odmítla - nezbývá jí než psát sama o sobě. Jakýkoliv odstup tu není žádoucí. Osobní je politické. Detailní ohledání nepřijatelných emocí - milostné posedlosti, emoční závislosti, sklonů k sebedestrukci - pak nese politický smysl. Hlavní hrdinka z románu vychází jako etické monstrum, sebestředná stárnoucí neurotička, která si projektuje do Dicka své poněkud adolescentní romantické představy, aniž by se kdy zabývala tím, kým vlastně Dick je. Zneužívá druhého člověka pro svůj umělecký projekt a autenticita jejích citů je tak přinejmenším pochybná. Monstróznost její milostné obsese předem odkázané k neúspěchu, nesnesitelná otevřenost, se kterou líčí svou touhu jakož i tělesné nedostatky, nemoci, nesplněné umělecké ambice a životní tragédie, jsou ale v důsledku fascinující. Román je upřímnou zpovědí o ženském selhání a (sebe)ponížení, manifestem nového druhu feministky, která se nebojí probít se vlastním narcisismem k zodpovědnosti za sebe sama a v neposlední řadě skvěle napsané umělecké dílo.

Others narrowly managed to escape a similar fate, such as a Hollywood heiress, who Despallières convinced to adopt him, and conned her out of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Despallières died in 2022, just before he was due to stand trial, leaving unanswered questions behind. In Love Until Death, Chris Hutchins untangles Despallières⠙s web of deceit, and gains the trust of Despallières himself, who reveals his version of events for the first time.

Když naivní mladá guvernantka Evangeline otěhotní se synem svého zámožného londýnského zaměstnavatele, netuší, jak závažné to pro ni bude mít následky. Poté, co ji služka navíc křivě obviní z krádeže, je Evangeline propuštěna a zatčena. S hrůzou se dozvídá, že byla odsouzena ke čtrnácti letům v australské trestanecké kolonii ve Van Diemenově zemi, dnešní Tasmánii. Neví, co ji čeká, ale jedna věc je jistá: dítě, které nosí pod srdcem, se narodí během několikaměsíční plavby. Jediné štěstí je, že na lodi se Evangeline spřátelí s Hazel – mladičkou, ale zkušenou porodní bábou a bylinkářkou. V době, kdy loď dorazí na místo, je mnoho místních obyvatel, Aboridžinců, násilně vytrženo z jejich přirozeného prostředí a někteří jsou nuceni začlenit se do společnosti britských kolonizátorů. Jednou z takových je osmiletá Mathinna, osiřelá dcera náčelníka kmene Lowreenne, kterou adoptoval nový guvernér Van Diemenovy země. Christina Baker Klineová vykresluje počátky kolonialismu v Austrálii z nové perspektivy prostřednictvím zkušeností Evangeline, Hazel a Mathinny a současně vypráví příběh o milosti zrozené ze strádání, o nezlomných poutech ženského přátelství a o síle odkazu předchozích generací.

Josephine Baker

The full story of Josephine Baker⠙s wartime and intelligence work in France and North Africa  Before the Second World War, Josephine Baker (1906⠓1975) was one of the most famous performers in the world. She made her name dancing on the Parisian stage, but when war broke out she decided not to return to America. Instead, Baker turned spy for the French Secret Services.  In this engaging, deeply researched study, Hanna Diamond tells the full story of Baker⠙s actions for the French and Allied powers in World War Two. Drawing on previously unseen material, Diamond reveals the vital role Baker played throughout the war, from counterintelligence work for the Allied landings in North Africa to serving in the French Air Force in 1944⠓45. A woman of colour operating in a white male environment, Baker exploited her celebrity to enable her war work across France, Spain, Portugal, North Africa, and the Middle East.  This groundbreaking account is the first to reveal the full significance of Baker⠙s wartime contribution.

Čas proměn - Mark Baker

Mark Baker měl možnost sledovat poslední roky komunistického režimu, listopadovou revoluci a počátky nového systému zblízka. Před rokem 1989 byl jedním z nemnoha západních novinářů, kteří pravidelně cestovali do Československa, aby svět informovali o zdejším vývoji. Po revoluci do Prahy přesídlil, aby pokračoval v novinářské práci a poté si zde založil populární knihkupectví s kavárnou. A mezitím projel zemi skrz naskrz s cílem sepsat prvního anglickojazyčného turistického průvodce po postkomunistickém Československu. To, co Mark Baker prožil, by bylo stěží možné v jakékoliv jiné době. Z prvního Čecha, kterého potkal, se vyklubal spolupracovník StB, jenž ho sledoval. Seznámil se s fascinujícím světem velkých komunistických hotelů prošpikovaných odposlouchávacími zařízeními, veksláky a podezřelými atraktivními ženami. Navštívil „zázraky“ socialistického hospodářství – JZD Slušovice, podniky zahraničního obchodu atd. Vedl rozhovor s Viktorem Koženým, prorokem, jemuž uvěřily tisíce Čechů. Se smutkem reportoval o rozpadu Československa, aby posléze na euforické vlně invaze tisíců mladých cizinců, které přivábila Praha coby „Paříž“ 90. let, vítal ve svém knihkupectví Ludvíka Vaculíka nebo Allena Ginsberga. Podivuhodná doba, kdy „bylo cokoliv možné“, zrodila jedinečné zážitky – ty zvlášť vyniknou v podání skvělého vypravěče, jímž Mark Baker bezesporu je.

Rural Hours - Harriet Baker

Harriet Baker tells the story of three very different women, each of whom moved to the countryside and was forever changed by it. We encounter them at quiet moments – pausing to look at an insect on the windowsill; jotting down a recipe; or digging for potatoes, dirt beneath their nails. Slowly, we start to see transformations unfold: Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Townsend Warner, and Rosamond Lehmann emerge before us as the passionate, visionary writers we know them to be.Following long periods of creative uncertainty and private disappointment, each of Baker s subjects is invigorated by new landscapes, and the daily trials and small pleasures of making a home; slowly, they embark on new experiments in form, in feeling and in living that would resonate throughout the rest of their lives. In the country, each woman finds her path: to convalescence and recovery; to sexual and political awakening; and, above all, to personal freedom and creative flourishing. In graceful, fluid prose, Baker vividly recreates these overlooked episodes, revealing how ‘rural hours’ defined the lives of three pioneering writers.In the end, she shows, their example is an invitation to us all: to recognize the radical and creative potential of rural places, and find new enchantment in the rituals of each day. ‘Warm, perceptive, eloquent …

The Bridleway - Tiffany Francis-Baker

WINNER OF THE ELWYN HARTLEY-EDWARDS AWARD FOR EQUINE WRITING, 2023. Tiffany Francis-Baker explores how the relationship between humans and horses has shaped the British landscape and how this connection has become part of our nationâ ™s ecosystems. Many of us enjoy walking or riding on bridleways. These ancient networks crisscross the British countryside, but we rarely pause to ponder how they came to be. Tiffany Francis-Baker tells the intriguing history of Britainâ ™s bridleways, revealing how our relationship with horses is deeply woven into the fabric of British culture, from street and pub names to trading routes and coaching inns. She meets the closest living descendants of wild horses and investigates our evolving relationship with horses, exploring equestrian sports, horse fairs, horseback travellers and adventurers, and how humans and horses have worked together for millennia. Part-domesticated and part-fiercely independent, horses have long captured our imaginations, and in The Bridleway, Francis-Baker reveals how deeply rooted they have been in our culture for thousands of years and how they can help us understand the natural world and our place within it.

On Assassinations - Kenneth Baker

In this revealing look at the history of assassinations, Kenneth Baker examines over a hundred political and religious murders or attempted murders, ranging from Julius Caesar to President Kennedy to Osama bin Laden. Assassins hope to change the world, but rarely succeed: Baker concludes that the assassination of Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in June 1914 was the only one that changed the history of the world. Other assassinations, whether of monarchs, politicians, dissidents, clerics, journalists or others at best give only a glancing blow at history. The author concludes that, in Macbeth⠙s words, an assassination ⠘is a poisoned chalice.⠙ Kenneth Baker also reveals that since 1945 there have been fewer individual assassins working alone; now assassinations are more likely to be carried out by political and religious terrorists, or by the security services of certain states to eliminate dissidents. Not only Russia and Israel, but the USA, the UK and others have resorted to targeted killings when they consider their security is under threat. On Assassinations shows how we have moved from the era of individual assassinations, through to terror groups⠙ murders and now onto state-sponsored targeted killings

â ˜A brilliant bookâ ™ Alastair Campbell, The Rest is Politics The essential, must-read insider account of the Westâ ™s cat and mouse economic warfare against Russia and how it is changing the face of global trade. Magisterial and grippingâ ™ Catherine Beltonâ ˜A brilliant, engagingly written and timely bookâ ™ Owen Matthewsâ ˜A very good bookâ ™ Mark GaleottiUndeterred by eight years of timid US sanctions, Vladimir Putin ordered his full-scale assault on Ukraine on 24 February 2022. In the hours that followed, Western leaders weaponized economic tools in a world-changing financial experiment. The goal was to sap the strength of Putinâ ™s war machine by damaging its economy, without risking a global recession in the process.In Punishing Putin, veteran journalist Stephanie Baker uncovers how this furious financial war has unfolded, from seizing superyachts to manipulating the global price of oil to blocking the sale of military technology. Baker reveals how the West mobilized an army of white-collar-crime investigators to crack down on illicit Russian money, targeting oligarchs and their enablers for sanctions evasion.Filled with propulsive, fly-on-the-wall details, Punishing Putin takes us into the frantic backroom deliberations that led to a whole new era of economic statecraft and radically rearranged global alliances, influencing world order for generations to come.
