Keep Going - Austin Kleon

Keep Working. Keep Playing. Keep Creating. In his previous books Steal Like an Artist and Show Your Work!, both New York Times bestsellers, Austin Kleon gave readers the keys to unlock their creativity and showed them how to become known. Now he offers his most inspiring work yet, with ten simple rules for how to stay creative, focused, and true to yourself—for life. The creative life is not a linear journey to a finish line, it’s a loop—so find a daily routine, because today is the only day that matters. Disconnect from the world to connect with yourself—sometimes you just have to switch into airplane mode. Keep Going celebrates getting outdoors and taking a walk (as director Ingmar Bergman told his daughter, ”The demons hate fresh air”). Pay attention, and especially pay attention to what you pay attention to. Worry less about getting things done, and more about the worth of what you’re doing. Instead of focusing on making your mark, work to leave things better than you found them.Keep Going and its timeless, practical, and ethical principles are for anyone trying to sustain a meaningful and productive life.

Just Kids: Jsou to jen děti - Patti Smith - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Ve svých slavných vzpomínkách Patti Smith dokumentuje bouřlivý milostný vztah, i vlastní profesní začátky v divokém prostředí amerického undergroundu. LÁSKA, SEX A AMERICKÝ UNDERGROUND - PATTI SMITH O PATTI SMITH. Patti Smith v knize Just Kids: Jsou to jen děti upřímně a zároveň se strhujícím zápalem vypráví o vztahu s fotografem Robertem Mapplethorpem, kterému sepsání knihy slíbila před jeho smrtí. Jejich milostný vztah byl poznamenán chudobou i Robertovým hledáním vlastní sexuality, po jeho skončení přesto zůstali přáteli. Kniha Just Kids zaznamenává zpěvaččiny hudební začátky i divoká společná léta mimo jiné ve slavném newyorském hotelu Chelsea a dodnes zůstává jedním z nejsilnějších dokumentů o americkém undergroundu konce 60. let a poloviny 70. let. Americká zpěvačka a básnířka Patti Smith je jednou z nejvýraznějších tváří dějin punku a nové vlny. Proslavilo ji už její debutové album Horses z roku 1975 a dlouholetá hudební i literární dráha. Kniha Just Kids jí vyšla v roce 2010, a stala se součástí několika žebříčků nejoceňovanějších knih daného roku. Ve stejném roce za ni Patti Smith získala také National Book Award. Anita Krausová je přes své mládí už interpretkou řady audioknih, třeba O Pavlovi, Do tmy či Zmizení Sáry Lindertové. Přesto s ní práce na Just Kids otřásla: Po tvářích se mi koulely slzy. V tom je Pattina kniha jedinečná. Radost, smutek, nadšení, závrať, to všechno se při čtení pomalu vpíjí pod kůži a už tam zůstane napořád. Anita spolupracuje také na podcastové a rozhlasové tvorbě a známá je i díky řadě filmových a televizních rolí, mimo jiné v sérii Pustina, Rapl II, Vodník či Bez vědomí.

Keep Smiling Through - Dame Vera Lynn, Virginia Lewis-Jones

In the year of her 100th birthday, Dame Vera Lynn s fascinating and life-affirming wartime memoir from the forces sweetheart s of her adventures entertaining the troops in far-flung Burma. I was just twenty-seven years old when I went to Burma. It was an experience that changed my life for ever. Up until that time I had not really travelled anywhere at all, apart from one touring visit to Holland with a band I was singing with before the war, and I had certainly never been in an aeroplane. But I wanted to make a difference, to do my bit. And she did.Written with her daughter, Virginia Lewis-Jones this is a powerful and life-affirming account of the time she spent with troops in wartime Burma. Based, in part on a diary she kept, alongside unpublished personal letters and photographs from surviving veterans and their families, it explores why it was such a life-defining event for her and shows how her presence helped the soldiers, airmen and others who heard her sing.

Tiene raz pominú - Lynn Austinová

Invázia nacistov do neutrálneho Holandska dramaticky zmení životy troch žien. Každá z nich musí prekľučkovať zložitou spleťou rozhodnutí a ich následkov. Lena si spokojne nažíva na vidieckej farme so svojou rodinou. Odjakživa sa riadila kompasom viery; zachová sa však správne aj zoči-voči nečakane zložitým dilemám, ktorých riešenie môže rozhodnúť o živote alebo smrti? Lenina dcéra Ans, ktorá sa nedávno presťahovala do rušného Leidenu, má hlavu plnú ideálov o novej práci a romantických predstáv o istom mladom policajtovi. Po zapojení sa do odboja však naráža na nepríjemnú realitu, že boj proti nepriateľovi môže byť nebezpečný. Miriam je mladá huslistka židovského pôvodu, ktorá v Holandsku hľadá útočište.

BRAT - Smith Gabriel

‘Full of dark, deadpan humour, Brat is a raucous story of the messy, messed-up business of living, dying and having a family.’ Financial Times ‘A moving coming-of-age family story’ Observer #39;Iconic #39;, Radio 1I was in the waiting room. Then I was in the examination room. Gabriel’s skin is falling off. His dad is dead. He owes his editor a novel. His girlfriend won’t answer his calls. Tasked by his horribly well-adjusted brother with clearing out the family home for sale, Gabriel’s sanity quickly begins to unravel. His parents’ old manuscripts appear to change each time he reads them. A bizarre home video hints at long-buried secrets. And there’s a hideous man in the garden. Disquieting and hilarious, taut yet lyrical, blisteringly-paced but formally inventive, Brat is a mediation on grief, art and love that will leave you altered, breathless and desperate for more. From a stunningly original new talent, this is a debut novel unlike anything you have read before. ‘This original, clever story is brilliant on grief, madness and creativity. It’s beautifully written, hilarious and heart-breaking. I raced through it.’ Daily Mail ​‘For readers looking for something that will grip you from start to finish, Brat is sure to be your breath of fresh air. The novel crackles with gothic horror, deadpan humor, and a damning sense of alienation that you won’t soon shake.’ Chicago Review of Books ‘Smith #39;s picaresque first novel is told from the perspective of Gabriel, a writer struggling with numerous issues . . . a deeply gothic work that never quite settles the reader in a certain world as Gabriel’s foibles, ghostly visions, and uncertainties filter every moment. Written in short, clipped chapters and featuring uproarious dialogue (especially with Gabriel #39;s brother), this is a darkly comic and brilliantly unusual debut.’ Booklist ‘[Smith #39;s] dialogue shines . . . Readers who appreciate the morbidly funny and the just plain morbid will find a lot to love in these pages. A weird and darkly funny novel from a writer to watch.’ Kirkus ‘It #39;s a book about loss and the anxiety of the modern age, tinged with humor and deep insight that will stay with readers long after the last page is turned.’ Town Country #39;Gabriel Smith has written a truly unique and surprising book. He is the rarest thing: a distinctive stylist on the line and structure level. Brat is so strange and so funny. I laughed a lot while reading. #39; Rachel Connolly, author of Lazy City #39;Messy with glitched realities and body horror, Brat breathes the same thrillingly claustrophobic air as Inland Empire and Ubik. It’s a skin-shedding ouroboros of grief and laughter, and the most brain-melting British debut I’ve read in ages. #39; Ed Park, author of Same Bed Different Dreams #39;Gabriel Smith’s prose is like if Joan Didion and Shirley Jackson took Xanax and used the internet. Brat is a sharp, eerie, confident debut about grief, memory, art, and so much more. Smith is a major new talent. #39; Jordan Castro, author of The Novelist #39;Gabriel Smith’s jauntily creepy and hilarious tale of a grief-stalked scapegrace’s sloughing-off and regeneration of selves in the filial murk of a moldering homestead is a Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man for a new, quaking generation.

More than 365 images chart Smith’s singular aesthetic - inspired by her wildly popular InstagramIn 2018, without any plan or agenda for what might happen next, Patti Smith posted her first Instagram photo: her hand with the simple message “Hello Everybody!” Known for shooting with her beloved Land Camera 250, Smith started posting images from her phone including portraits of her kids, her radiator, her boots, and her Abyssinian cat, Cairo. Followers felt an immediate affinity with these miniature windows into Smith’s world, photographs of her daily coffee, the books she’s reading, the graves of beloved heroes - William Blake, Dylan Thomas, Sylvia Plath, Simone Weil, Albert Camus.Over time, a coherent story of a life devoted to art took shape, and more than a million followers responded to Smith’s unique aesthetic in images that chart her passions, devotions, obsessions, and whims.

Here, too, are never-before-seen photos of life on and off the road, train stations, obscure cafés, a notebook always nearby.In wide-ranging yet intimate daily notations, Smith shares dispatches from her travels around the world. With 365 photographs, taking you through a single year, A Book of Days is a new way to experience the expansive mind of the visionary poet, writer, and performer.

Devotion - Patti Smith

The National Book Award-winning author of Year of the Monkey, Just Kids, and M Train offers a rare, intimate account of her own creative process. A work of creative brilliance may seem like magic—its source a mystery, its impact unexpectedly stirring. How does an artist accomplish such an achievement, connecting deeply with an audience never met? In this groundbreaking book, one of our culture’s beloved artists offers a detailed account of her own creative process, inspirations, and unexpected connections. Patti Smith first presents an original and beautifully crafted tale of obsession—a young skater who lives for her art, a possessive collector who ruthlessly seeks his prize, a relationship forged of need both craven and exalted. She then takes us on a second journey, exploring the sources of her story. We travel through the South of France to Camus’s house, and visit the garden of the great publisher Gallimard where the ghosts of Mishima, Nabokov, and Genet mingle. Smith tracks down Simone Weil’s grave in a lonely cemetery, hours from London, and winds through the nameless Paris streets of Patrick Modiano’s novels. Whether writing in a café or a train, Smith generously opens her notebooks and lets us glimpse the alchemy of her art and craft in this arresting and original book on writing. The Why I Write series is based on the Windham-Campbell Lectures, delivered annually to commemorate the awarding of the Donald Windham-Sandy M. Campbell Literature Prizes at Yale University. Patti Smith is a writer, performer, and visual artist. Her memoir Just Kids received a National Book Award, and her recent book M Train is a critically acclaimed New York Times best-seller. Smith was awarded the prestigious title of Commandeur des Arts et des Lettres by the French Republic, and in 2007 she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Smith lives in New York City.

Adam Smith - Norman Jesse

A superb book Financial Times, Books of the YearAdam Smith is now widely regarded as the father of modern economics and the most influential economist who ever lived. But what he really thought, and what the implications of his ideas are, remain fiercely contested. Was he an eloquent advocate of capitalism and the freedom of the individual? Or a prime mover of market fundamentalism and an apologist for inequality and human selfishness? Or something else entirely? Jesse Norman s brilliantly conceived \book gives us not just Smith s economics, but his vastly wider intellectual project. Against the turbulent backdrop of Enlightenment Scotland, it lays out a succinct and highly engaging account of Smith s life and times, reviews his work as a whole and traces his influence over the past two centuries.But this book is not only a biography. It dispels the myths and debunks the caricatures that have grown up around Adam Smith. It explores Smith s ideas in detail, from ethics to law to economics and government, and the impact of those ideas on thinkers as diverse as Karl Marx, Charles Darwin, John Maynard Keynes and Friedrich Hayek. Far from being simply an economist, Adam Smith emerges as one of the founders of modern social psychology and behavioural theory. Far from being a doctrinaire libertarian or neoliberal thinker, he offers a strikingly modern evolutionary theory of political economy, which recognises the often complementary roles of markets and the state.At a time when economics and politics are ever more polarized between left and right, this book, by offering a Smithian analysis of contemporary markets, predatory capitalism and the 2008 financial crash, returns us to first principles and shows how the lost centre of modern public debate can be recreated. Through Smith s work, it addresses crucial issues of inequality, human dignity and exploitation; and it provides a compelling explanation of why he remains central to any attempt to defend, reform or renew the market system.

Collected Poems and Drawings of Stevie Smith - Stevie Smith

When Stevie Smith died in 1971 she was one of the twentieth-century s most popular poets; many of her poems have been widely anthologised, and Not Waving but Drowning remains one of the nation s favourite poems to this day.Satirical, mischievous, teasing, disarming, her characteristically lightning-fast changes in tone take readers from comedy to tragedy and back again, while her line drawings are by turns unsettling and beguiling. In this edition of her work, Smith scholar Will May collects together the illustrations and poems from her original published volumes for the first time, recording fascinating details about their provenance, and describing the various versions Smith presented both on stage and page. Including over 500 works from Smith s 35-year career, The Collected Poems and Drawings of Stevie Smith is the essential edition of modern poetry s most distinctive voice.Nobody heard him, the dead man,But still he lay moaning:I was much further out than you thoughtAnd not waving but drowning.- Not Waving but Drowning

Bread of Angels - Patti Smith

A radiant new memoir from beloved artist and writer Patti Smith, author of the National Book Award Winner Just Kids.God whispers through a crease in the wallpaper, writes Patti Smith in this indelible account of her life as an artist. A post-Second World War childhood unfolds in a condemned housing complex described in Dickensian detail: consumptive children, vanishing neighbours, an infested rat house, and a beguiling book of Irish fairytales. We enter the child s world of the imagination where Smith, the captain of her loyal and beloved sibling army, vanquishes bullies, communes with the king of tortoises and searches for sacred silver pennies.The most intimate of Smith s memoirs, Bread of Angels takes us through her teenage years where the first glimmers of art and romance take hold. Arthur Rimbaud and Bob Dylan emerge as creative heroes and role models as Patti starts to write poetry, then lyrics, merging both into the iconic songs and recordings such as Horses and Easter, Dancing Barefoot and Because the Night .She leaves it all behind to marry her one true love, Fred Sonic Smith, with whom she creates a life of devotion and adventure on a canal in St. Clair Shores, Michigan with ancient willows and fulsome pear trees. She builds a room of her own, furnished with a pillow of Moroccan silk, a Persian cup, inkwell and fountain pen. The couple spend nights in their landlocked Chris-Craft studying nautical maps and charting new adventures as they start their family.As Smith suffers profound losses, grief and gratitude are braided through years of caring for her children, rebuilding her life and, finally, writing again - the one constant in a life driven by artistic freedom and the power of the imagination to transform the mundane into the beautiful, the commonplace into the magical, and pain into hope. In the final pages, we meet Patti on the road again, the vagabond who travels to commune with herself, who lives to write and writes to live.

M Train. Vzpomínky - Patti Smith

Nový titul zpěvačky, básnířky a spisovatelky Patti Smith, autorky slavné knihy Just Kids, je ojedinělým autobiografickým záznamem. Kontemplativní odyseu, která vznikala přibližně v letech 2011-2013, sama autorka nazvala automapou svého života . Příslovečný vlak vzpomínek M Train se dává do pohybu v malé kavárničce v Greenwich Village, kam Patti Smith každé ráno vyráží na šálek černé kávy. V prozaickém vyprávění se sen plynule mísí se skutečností a minulost s přítomností; Patti Smith zavádí čtenáře na místa, která drží v nejvyšší úctě: do Casa Azul, modrého domu malířky Fridy Kahlo v Mexiku, do Berlína na setkání obskurního společenství polárníků, do zchátralého domu na Rockaway Beach, který si autorka pořídí těsně před tím, než na východní pobřeží udeří ničivý hurikán Sandy; a k hrobům milovaných autorů, Jeana Geneta, Sylvie Plathové, Artura Rimbauda nebo Jukia Mišimy. Patti Smith v knize vykresluje mozaiku tvůrčích aspirací a inspirací. Textem se proplétají také vzpomínky na její život v Michiganu a autorka se poprvé dělí o bolest spojenou se ztrátou manžela, hudebníka Freda Sonica Smithe. Své putování po krajinách snových i skutečných ilustruje polaroidovými snímky. M Train je meditací o cestování, detektivních seriálech, literatuře a kávě, ale především intimní a hluboce působivou sondou do vnitřního světa jedné z nejvýznamnějších současných umělkyň.

Adam Smith : What He Thought, and Why it Matters - Norman Jesse

Adam Smith is now widely regarded as the father of modern economics and the most influential economist who ever lived. But what he really thought, and what the implications of his ideas are, remain fiercely contested. Was he an eloquent advocate of capitalism and the freedom of the individual? Or a prime mover of market fundamentalism and an apologist for inequality and human selfishness? Or something else entirely? Jesse Norman s brilliantly conceived \book gives us not just Smith s economics, but his vastly wider intellectual project. Against the turbulent backdrop of Enlightenment Scotland, it lays out a succinct and highly engaging account of Smith s life and times, reviews his work as a whole and traces his influence over the past two centuries.But this book is not only a biography.

Year of the Monkey - Patti Smith

Following a run of New Year s concerts at San Francisco s legendary Fillmore, Patti Smith finds herself tramping the coast of Santa Cruz, about to embark on a year of solitary wandering. Unfettered by logic or time, she draws us into her private wonderland, with no design yet heeding signs, including a talking sign that looms above her, prodding and sparring like the Cheshire Cat. In February, a surreal lunar year begins, bringing with it unexpected turns, heightened mischief, and inescapable sorrow. In a stranger s words, Anything is possible: after all, it s the year of the monkey. For Patti Smith - inveterately curious, always exploring, tracking thoughts, writing the year evolves as one of reckoning with the changes in life s gyre: with loss, aging, and a dramatic shift in the political landscape of America.Smith melds the Western landscape with her own dreamscape. Taking us from Southern California to the Arizona desert; to a Kentucky farm as the amanuensis of a friend in crisis; to the hospital room of a valued mentor; and by turns to remembered and imagined places - this haunting memoir blends fact and fiction with poetic mastery. The unexpected happens; grief and disillusionment. But as Patti Smith heads toward a new decade in her own life, she offers this balm to the reader: her wisdom, wit, gimlet eye, and above all, a rugged hope of a better world.Riveting, elegant, often humorous, illustrated by Smith s signature Polaroids, Year of the Monkey is a moving and original work, a touchstone for our turbulent times.
