It's Trevor Noah: Born a Crime - Trevor Noah

Born A Crime - Trevor Noah

WINNER OF THE THURBER PRIZEThe compelling, inspiring, (often comic) coming-of-age story of Trevor Noah, set during the twilight of apartheid and the tumultuous days of freedom that followed.One of the comedy world's brightest new voices, Trevor Noah is a light-footed but sharp-minded observer of the absurdities of politics, race and identity, sharing jokes and insights drawn from the wealth of experience acquired in his relatively young life. As host of the US hit show The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, he provides viewers around the globe with their nightly dose of biting satire, but here Noah turns his focus inward, giving readers a deeply personal, heartfelt and humorous look at the world that shaped him. Noah was born a crime, son of a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother, at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents' indiscretion, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the first years of his life, bound by the extreme and often absurd measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could, at any moment, take him away.A collection of eighteen personal stories, Born a Crime tells the story of a mischievous young boy growing into a restless young man as he struggles to find his place in a world where he was never supposed to exist. Born a Crime is equally the story of that young man's fearless, rebellious and fervently religious mother - a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence and abuse that ultimately threatens her own life.Whether subsisting on caterpillars for dinner during hard times, being thrown from a moving car during an attempted kidnapping, or just trying to survive the life-and-death pitfalls of dating in high school, Noah illuminates his curious world with an incisive wit and an unflinching honesty. His stories weave together to form a personal portrait of an unlikely childhood in a dangerous time, as moving and unforgettable as the very best memoirs and as funny as Noah's own hilarious stand-up. Born a Crime is a must read.

Knots

Knots are well known as symbols of moral relationships. This book develops an exciting new view of this otherwise taken-for-granted image and considers their metaphoric value in and for moral order. In chapters that focus on Japan, China, Europe, South America and in several Pacific Island societies, granular ethnography depicts how knots are deployed to express unity in daily and ritual embodiment, political authority and the cosmos, as well as in social thought. The volume will be of interest to anthropologists and other scholars concerned with metaphor and symbolism, material culture and technology.

Vinný od narodenia - Trevor Noah - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Presvedčivý, inšpiratívny a komicky vznešený príbeh dospievania v doznievajúcom apartheide a búrlivých dňoch slobody, ktoré nasledovali. Zázračná cesta Trevora Noaha z juhoafrického apartheidu k pracovnému stolu The Daily Show sa začala kriminálnym činom: jeho narodením. Trevor je potomkom belocha a černošskej matky. V tom čase im za takéto spojenie hrozilo päť rokov väzenia. Bol živým dôkazom nerozvážnosti svojich rodičov, preto musel stráviť prvých päť rokov života schovaný vnútri, aby ho matka ochránila pred vládnymi úradníkmi, ktorí ho kedykoľvek mohli odviesť. Trevorove zážitky sú veselé a dramaticky pôsobivé. Či už večeria húsenice, lebo časy sú ťažké, alebo ho počas únosu vyhodia z idúceho auta, Trevor opisuje svoj zvláštny svet vtipne a pravdivo. Výsledkom je dojemný a smutno zábavný portrét chlapca, ktorého dnes vďaka televíznym obrazovkám pozná celý svet. „Potešenie obohacujúce dušu… obrovský dar.“ - Denník USA Today „Presvedčivý a neodolateľný životopis... Chvíľami smutný, chvíľami zábavný príbeh prináša znepokojivý obraz Južnej Afriky počas apartheidu cez prizmu netypickej rodiny... Kniha Vinný od narodenia nie je iba tiesnivým opisom dospievania v časoch krutého diskriminačného režimu, ale aj vyznaním lásky autorovej pozoruhodnej matke.“ - New York Times „Nezabudnuteľná kniha... Noah vyrastá pod ostražitým dohľadom svojej obdivuhodnej, nebojácnej matky… Ich intenzívne puto osviežuje a povznáša celý príbeh.“ - People „Toto nie je tuctový životopis jedného komika – je to jedinečný portrét muža, ktorého formovala jeho kultúra, a zároveň prenikavo výstižný ponor do sveta, kde bola časť populácie dlho odstrkovaná a zažila veľmi temné časy.“ - Refinery29 „Trevorov životopis je výnimočný... povinné čítanie v každom ohľade. Ťažko si predstaviť, že by to niekto napísal lepšie.“ - Seattle Times „Noahov príbeh o prežití a ceste k úspechu je ohromujúci.“ - Cosmopolitan „Talentovaný rozprávač so schopnosťou šikovne pretkať dojímavé príbehy zábavnou iróniou.“ - Entertainment Weekly „Dojemná autobiografia je úprimným vyznaním lásky a vďačnosti matke.“ - Washington Post

Narozený mimo zákon - Příběhy z dětství v Jižní Africe - Trevor Noah

Trevor Noah je oblíbeným komikem a moderátorem z Jižní Afriky. Uvádí populární satirický pořad v americké televizi, ale především vystupuje ve vlastní stand-up comedy show. V ní s břitkým humorem líčí historky ze svého dětství a mládí a ve stejném duchu koncipuje i tuto knihu. Narozený mimo zákon je sbírkou veselých, dramatických a někdy také dojemných příběhů, které se vzájemně proplétají a prolínají a dohromady vytvářejí obraz pro nás nezvyklého a neznámého světa. Trevorova pozoruhodná životní pouť začala zločinem: příchodem na svět. Narodil se totiž černošské matce a bílému otci v době, kdy Jihoafrickou republiku sužoval apartheid a vztahy mezi partnery odlišné barvy pleti byly pokládány za trestný čin. Pád apartheidu znamenal v tomto ohledu vysvobození, ale život v Jižní Africe ani pak nebyl procházkou růžovým sadem. Ač se musel Trevor živit housenkami, byl vyhozen z jedoucího auta nebo se jen snažil přežít nástrahy randění, odhodlaně se vrhal vstříc dalším dobrodružstvím vyzbrojen důvtipem, smyslem pro humor a bezpodmínečnou láskou své nekonvenční matky.

The Daily Show Presidential Twitter Library - Trevor Noah

As seen on The Daily Show, an illustrated portrait of the Donald J. Trump Twitter account, with analysis and 'scholarly' commentary from the writers of The Daily Show and an introduction by Trevor Noah. In June 2017, just steps from Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah opened The Donald J. Trump Presidential Twitter Library, a 4,000-square-foot museum space that gave the 45th president and his amazing Twitter legacy the respect they deserve. In the single weekend it was open to the public, the Library pop-up drew 7,500 visitors and had to turn away countless others. But the Presidential Twitter Library experience should not be limited to the elite coastal few. Not fair! All citizens, even the Mexican ones, should have the chance to see Donald Trump's tweets in their rightful context - organized and commented on in the fearless, hilarious, insightful voice of The Daily Show.

Stolpersteine (kameny zmizelých) poté, co se o nich dozvěděl na prohlídce pražského Židovského města. První Stolperstein byl v Praze instalován 8. října 2008 a již čtyřstý byl položen 22. června 2021. Sage sestavil tuto knihu jako poctu obětem nacistického režimu. Kniha spojuje fotografie kamenů zmizelých s portrétními fotografiemi obětí, informacemi o jejich transportech a také dojemné životní příběhy několika obětí, často sepsané přímo jejich příbuznými, kteří do knihy laskavě přispěli. ************************** Trevor Sage is a British expat living in Prague.

Vinný od narodenia - Trevor Noah

Trevor Noah sa narodil ako syn juhoafrickej matky z kmeňa Xhosa a švajčiarskeho občana. V čase apartheidu boli vzťahy medzi partnermi odlišnej farby pleti neakceptovateľné a pokladali sa za trestný čin. Trevor bol dieťa, ktoré sa vlastne nemalo narodiť, a tak ho museli skrývať. Zažil chudobu, prejavy rasizmu, ale aj odvážnu vzburu svojich "farboslepých rodičov", ktorí sa s dôvtipom snažili prekonať etnické a rasové predsudky. Dnes je z neho obľúbený moderátor s vlastnou show, cestuje po celom svete a vystupuje ako stand-up komik pred vypredanými sálami. Jeho rozprávanie sledujeme v navzájom prepojených príbehoch, mnohé sú zábavné či dramatické, iné zasa hlboko dojemné. Trevorova kniha sa pokladá za najúspešnejšiu autobiografiu 21. storočia, keďže nám s dôvtipom a úprimnosťou približuje nezvyčajný svet, na ktorý by sme najradšej zabudli. Spoznávame ťažké detstvo, keď jeho jedálniček pozostával čisto z húseníc, alebo keď ho pri únose vyhodili z idúceho minibusu. Autor nevynechá ani spomienky na sladké trápenie, čo mu pripravili stredoškolské lásky. Celou knihou sa vinie jeho neutíchajúci zmysel pre humor a satiru aj krásne puto k nebojácnej a milujúcej matke. Chránila svojho syna pred kolotočom chudoby, násilia a týrania a ukázala mu cestu k slobode, vzdelaniu a dôstojnému životu.

The Book of St John - Fergus Henderson, Trevor Gulliver

''The Book of St John is too witty to be a manifesto, but it is a sturdy invocation of the need for comfort, generosity and ritual at the table. And it is a gurglingly delightful compendium of - quite simply - delicious ideas and stories'' Nigella Lawson''An unutterable joy from the team behind one of the most influential and important restaurants in Britain ... This is much more than a book of recipes, though (glorious as they are). It’s also about the importance of the table, of feasting, of friendship, of the white cloth napkin on your knee. And it sings of simple but wonderful pleasures: a bacon sandwich and a glass of cider, a doughnut and a glass of champagne.’ Diana Henry, The Telegraph''The Book of St. JOHN, part food gospel, part memoir, part recipe book.''

Urban Plants - Trevor Dines

An illuminating account of urban botany in the British Isles – its ecology, history and cultural significance.The walls, pavements, lawns, parks, playing fields, verges and waste ground that make up the built environment of Britain and Ireland are home to an extraordinary array of plant species. Native and non-native species together find ways to endure in often harsh and uncompromising habitats. In Urban Plants, leading botanist Trevor Dines tells the stories of our urban flowers, ferns and conifers: how they arrived, how they survive, and how a select few seize the opportunity to become masters of the streets, thriving in the face of constant upheaval and change.We learn how our villages, towns and cities have changed over time – from Roman Britain to reconstruction after World War II – and the resulting geographical variation that exists in our flora today, such as London Rocket at the Tower of London or the newly evolved York Groundsel recently discovered in a railway station carpark. Trevor also looks to the future and the potential impacts of invasive species, herbicides and climate change, as well as the concept of urban rewilding.Illustrated with around 350 colour photographs, maps and diagrams, as well as text boxes exploring key species and habitats, this is a fascinating deep dive into the biology, ecology and cultural impact of the plants that set up home alongside us.

Civil War - Trevor Royle

One late summer''s day in 1642 two rival armies faced each other across the rolling Warwickshire countryside at Edgehill. There, Royalists faithful to King Charles I engaged in a battle with the supporters of the Parliament. Ahead lay even more desperate battles like Marston Moor and Naseby. The fighting was also to rage through Scotland and Ireland, notably at the siege of Drogheda and the decisive battle of Dunbar.Few periods in English history are more significant than that to which acclaimed author Trevor Royle turns his attention in CIVIL WAR. From his shrewd analyses of the characters who played their parts in the wars to his brilliantly concise descriptions of battles, Trevor Royle has produced a vivid and dramatic narrative of those turbulent years. His book also reveals how the new ideas and dispensations that followed from the wars - Cromwell''s Protectorate, the Restoration of Charles II and the ''Glorious Revolution'' of 1689 - made it possible for England, Ireland and Scotland to progress towards their own more distant future as democratic societies.

Blood Knots - Luke Jennings

As a child in the 1960s, Luke Jennings was fascinated by the rivers and lakes around his Sussex home. Beneath their surfaces, it seemed to him, waited alien and mysterious worlds. With library books as his guide, he applied himself to the task of learning to fish.His progress was slow, and for years he caught nothing. But then a series of teachers presented themselves, including an inspirational young intelligence officer, from whom he learnt stealth, deception and the art of the dry fly. So began an enlightening but often dark-shadowed journey of discovery. It would lead to bright streams and wild country, but would end with his mentor''s capture, torture and execution by the IRA. Blood Knots is about angling, about great fish caught and lost, but it is also about friendship, honour and coming of age. As an adult Jennings has sought out lost and secretive waterways, probing waters ''as deep as England'' at dead of night in search of giant pike. The quest, as always, is for more than the living quarry. For only by searching far beneath the surface, Jennings suggests in this most moving and thought-provoking of memoirs, can you connect with your own deep history.

The Message of Sonship - Professor Trevor J. Burke

'Sonship' is an important, yet often overlooked, theme throughout the Bible. Adam, the first human being, is identified as a 'son of God'; Israel is God's 'first-born son'; the covenant with king David is cast in father-son terms; Christians are children of God, 'adopted as sons'; and the same designation brings Scripture to a triumphant conclusion: 'He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son' (Revelation 21:7). The storyline of the Bible is clear, that God is making for himself a family of sons and daughters who will serve him and reign with him in his kingdom for ever - and this purpose is achieved through Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God. In his warm-hearted, edifying exposition of this theme, Trevor Burke shows how 'sonship' is the focus of creation, is a metaphor for salvation, carries moral obligation, and is the goal of restoration of broken, suffering humanity. For those whom God the Father adopts into his household as sons and daughters, the family bonds that begin in this life will last for all eternity.

Republic and Empire - Andrew Jackson O'Shaughnessy, Trevor Burnard

A fresh look at the American Revolution as a major global event  At the time of the American Revolution (1765–83), the British Empire had colonies in India, Africa, the Caribbean, the Pacific, Canada, Ireland, and Gibraltar. The thirteen rebellious American colonies accounted for half of the total number of provinces in the British world in 1776. What of the loyal half? Why did some of Britain’s subjects feel so aggrieved that they wanted to establish a new system of government, while others did not rebel? In this authoritative history, Trevor Burnard and Andrew Jackson O’Shaughnessy show that understanding the long-term causes of the American Revolution requires a global view.  As much as it was an event in the history of the United States, the American Revolution was an imperial event produced by the upheavals of managing a far-flung set of imperial possessions during a turbulent period of reform. By looking beyond the familiar borders of the Revolution and considering colonies that did not rebel—Quebec, Nova Scotia, Bermuda, India, the British Caribbean, Senegal, and Ireland—Burnard and O’Shaughnessy go beyond the republican, liberal, and democratic aspects of the emerging American nation, providing a broader history that transcends what we think we know about the Revolution.

The Last Days of Hitler - Hugh Trevor-Roper

Listed as one of the Guardian''s 100 Best Nonfiction Books of All Time. In September 1945 the fate of Adolf Hitler was a complete mystery. He had simply disappeared, and had been missing for four months. Hugh Trevor-Roper, an intelligence officer, was given the task of solving the mystery. His brilliant piece of detective work not only proved finally that Hitler had killed himself in Berlin, but also produced one of the most fascinating history books ever written. The Last Days of Hitler tells the extraordinary story of those last days of the Thousand Year Reich in the Berlin Bunker. Besieged in the shattered capital, but still dominating the remains of his court, Hitler reiterated the original alternative of Nazism: either total victory or annihilation. This book is the record of that carefully prepared, ceremonious finale to a terrible chapter of history.''Brilliantly written and researched, The Last Days of Hitler remains the most vivid account of the final Wagnerian chapter of Hitler''s tyranny'' – Max Hastings ''This is an incomparable book, by far the best written on any aspect of the second German war: a book sound in scholarship, brilliant in its presentation . . . No words of praise are too strong.'' – A. J. P. Taylor, New Statesman
