The first edition of English Nettles brought together poems Peter Robinson began writing on his return to England after many years living in Japan. The twenty-three works, evocatively illustrated by Sally Castle, show the poet’s ability to catch at fleeting landscapes and moments as, discovering Reading, he reacquainted himself with his native land. The poems celebrate his collaboration with the artist in their tribute to the place in which he came to settle. This beautifully redesigned new edition brings the book back into print, and includes an additional poem and illustration. Running through their lines like the town’s two arteries are oblique reflections on the meaning of home, the nature of money, work, love, death, and parenthood. Approachable yet inexhaustible, Peter Robinson’s poetry welcomes readers and promises rewards that can be kept.A Two Rivers Press illustrated classic. ‘… the finest poet of his generation’ – PN Review ‘Robinson is at his best when describing the strangeness of marginalia such as … “a creosoted shed / with ivy bursting through its boards” … where time is distorted and realigned like perspectives in a mirror so that a return “home” feels as strange as being in a foreign country’ – Poetry London ...

The speaker in this extraordinary collection finds herself multiply dislocated: from her childhood in California, from her family’s roots in Mexico, from a dying parent, from her prior self. The world is always in motion—both toward and away from us—and it is also full of risk: from sharks unexpectedly lurking beneath estuarial rivers to the dangers of New York City, where, as Limón reminds us, even rats find themselves trapped by the garbage cans they’ve crawled into. In such a world, how should one proceed? Throughout Sharks in the Rivers, Limón suggests that we must cleave to the world as it “keep[s] opening before us,” for, if we pay attention, we can be one with its complex, ephemeral, and beautiful strangeness. Loss is perpetual, and each person’s mouth “is the same / mouth as everyone’s, all trying to say the same thing.” For Limón, it’s the saying—individual and collective — that transforms each of us into “a wound overcome by wonder,” that allows “the wind itself” to be our “own wild whisper.”

WHAT VALUABLE COMPANY IS NOBODY BUILDING?The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. If you are copying these guys, you aren’t learning from them. It’s easier to copy a model than to make something new: doing what we already know how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. Every new creation goes from 0 to 1. This book is about how to get there.‘Peter Thiel has built multiple breakthrough companies, and Zero to One shows how.’ELON MUSK, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla‘This book delivers completely new and refreshing ideas on how to create value in the world.’MARK ZUCKERBERG, CEO of Facebook‘When a risk taker writes a book, read it.

Kinship is a unique undertaking in the artistic career of one of Ireland’s leading artists. This book, and the artistic project it is part of, charts the act of returning a mummified body of a man to Egypt. This book, produced in conjunction with Dorothy Cross’s newest artistic project, charts this unique journey, drawing in new writings from some of the best contemporary writers from around the world, who write on and around the themes of the Kinship project – migration, home, refuge, crisis and the process of return. In 2019 Dorothy Cross recalled a story of an Egyptian mummy that had been hidden away in the archives of the anatomy department at University College Cork for decades. For Cross, the next step she needed to take seemed as natural to her as any of her work – the mummy and sarcophagus must be returned to its homeland. In beginning this act, and this journey, Cross set out to create an event across place and time, with music, literature and celebration – an act of kinship. As the body returns to its home across the Mediterranean, the Kinship project would again draw attention to the present-day plight of thousands of ...

The best-selling guide to acting Shakespeare in a new smaller and lighter handbook size.Shakespeare tells the actor when to go fast and when to go slow; when to pause, when to come in on cue and when to accent a word. His text is full of such clues. He tells the actor when but never tells him why or how. That is up to the actor. Much like bringing a musical score to life, Peter Hall guides us to ‘speak the speech’. An essential text for classical training at drama school and an invaluable reference book for actors and directors working on Shakespeare productions. Peter Hall makes watching or reading Shakespeare a richer experience, for audiences as well as actors.

Sbírka sarkastických, ironických a sebeironických básní slovenského autora Petra Gregora. Dílo má podtitul Malá procházka velkým lunaparkem. Básně přeložil a doslovem knihu opatřil Jiří Žáček. Žáček v doslovu píše: "Ironie a sebeironie vyzařuje z jeho básní, neúprosným sarkasmem jsou nasyceny jeho aforistické Etudy, pro něž - podle vzoru gregerií Gómeze de la Serny - navrhuji žánrový název gregorie. Existenciální náboj jeho textů ironií a sarkasmem neztrácí, nýbrž získává. Peter Gregor byl - a pro čtenáře už navždy bude - buřičem proti každému statu quo, protože věděl, že člověka člověkem nedělá schopnost / vzpřímeně kráčet na dvou nohách, / ale odvaha stavět se / na zadní."

‘Pithy, admirable ... a most refreshing resumé’ The Times Literary Supplement India has had many histories. To pilgrims from ancient China, India was the birthplace of the Buddha; to Alexander the Great it was a land of clever naked philosophers and indomitable, elephantine armies.At the height of the Mughal empire, India boasted nearly a quarter of the world economy, and even under colonial rule it was the jewel in the crown of the British Empire. Today it is the resurgent home to one sixth of the global population. Andrew Robinson incisively distils India’s many incarnations, from the remarkably advanced cities of the early Indus Valley to the world’s largest democracy.Anyone curious about its past, present or future will find this a fascinating introduction.
