Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and Richard and Judy pick.From the author of the acclaimed â ˜Year of Wondersâ ™ and â ˜People of the Bookâ ™, a historical novel and love story set during a time of catastrophe on the front lines of the American Civil War.Set during the American Civil War, â ˜Marchâ ™ tells the story of John March, known to us as the father away from his family of girls in â ˜Little Womenâ ™, Louisa May Alcottâ ™s classic American novel. In Brooksâ ™s telling, March emerges as an abolitionist and idealistic chaplain on the front lines of a war that tests his faith in himself and in the Union cause when he learns that his side, too, is capable of barbarism and racism. As he recovers from a near-fatal illness in a Washington hospital, he must reassemble the shards of his shattered mind and body, and find a way to reconnect with a wife and daughters who have no idea of the ordeals he has been through.As Alcott drew on her real-life sisters in shaping the characters of her little women, so Brooks turned to the journals and letters of Bronson Alcott, Louisa Mayâ ™s father, an idealistic educator, animal rights exponent and abolitionist who was a friend and confidante of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. The story spans the vibrant intellectual world of Concord and the sensuous antebellum South, through to the first year of the Civil War as the North reels under a series of unexpected defeats.Like her bestselling â ˜Year of Wondersâ ™, â ˜Marchâ ™ follows an unconventional love story. It explores the passions between a man and a woman, the tenderness of parent and child, and the life-changing power of an ardently held belief.

A heartrending and beautiful memoir of sudden loss and a journey to peace, from the bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-winning author ofâ ¯ Horse.Many cultural and religious traditions expect those who are grieving to step away from the world. In contemporary life, we are more often met with red tape and to-do lists. This is exactly what happened to Geraldine Brooks when her partner of more than three decades, Tony Horwitz - just sixty years old and, to her knowledge, vigorous and healthy - collapsed and died on a Washington, D. C. sidewalk.After spending their early years together in conflict zones as foreign correspondents, Geraldine and Tony settled down to raise two boys on Martha s Vineyard. The life they built was one of meaningful work, good humor, and tenderness, as they spent their days writing and their evenings cooking family dinners or watching the sun set with friends at Lambert s Cove. But all of this came to an abrupt end when, on Memorial Day 2019, Geraldine received the phone call we all dread. The demands were immediate and many. Without space to grieve, the sudden loss became a yawning gulf.Three years later, she booked a flight to a remote island off the coast of Australia with the intention of finally giving herself the time to mourn. In a shack on a pristine, rugged coast she often went days without seeing another person. There, she pondered the various ways in which cultures grieve and what rituals of her own might help to rebuild a life around the void of Tony s death.A spare and profoundly moving memoir that joins the classics of the genre, Memorial Days is a portrait of a larger-than-life man and a timeless love between souls that exquisitely captures the joy, agony, and mystery of life.*number 5 in the New York Times hardback non-fiction bestseller chart February 12th 2025

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of â ˜Marchâ ™ and â ˜People of the Bookâ ™.A young womanâ ™s struggle to save her family and her soul during the extraordinary year of 1666, when plague suddenly struck a small Derbyshire village.In 1666, plague swept through London, driving the King and his court to Oxford, and Samuel Pepys to Greenwich, in an attempt to escape contagion. The north of England remained untouched until, in a small community of leadminers and hill farmers, a bolt of cloth arrived from the capital. The tailor who cut the cloth had no way of knowing that the damp fabric carried with it bubonic infection.So begins the Year of Wonders, in which a Pennine village of 350 souls confronts a scourge beyond remedy or understanding. Desperate, the villagers turn to sorcery, herb lore, and murderous witch-hunting. Then, led by a young and charismatic preacher, they elect to isolate themselves in a fatal quarantine. The story is told through the eyes of Anna Frith who, at only 18, must contend with the death of her family, the disintegration of her society, and the lure of a dangerous and illicit attraction.Geraldine Brooksâ ™s novel explores love and learning, fear and fanaticism, and the struggle of 17th century science and religion to deal with a seemingly diabolical pestilence. â ˜Year of Wondersâ ™ is also an eloquent memorial to the real-life Derbyshire villagers who chose to suffer alone during Englandâ ™s last great plague.

Tiziana Terenzi Black XIX March, 100 ml, Parfémy unisex, XIX March je aromatická dřevitá vůně pro muže a ženy od italské rodinné značky nikových (niche) parfémů Tiziana Terenzi, která je proslulá především svými výjimečnými vonnými svíčkami. V roce 2012 značka, jejíž rodinné kořeny sahají až do slavných dob Římské říše, představila svou první řadu parfémů, inspirovanou ohněm. Čtyři parfémy Tiziana Terenzi představují čtyři různé fáze životní cesty, kterou neustále provází hypnotická síla a krása ohně. Čtyři různé zážitky z této cesty, všechny zachycující nezkrotného ducha lidských emocí. XIX March symbolizuje oheň, ve kterém se před jarní rovnodenností pálí pozůstatky zimy a, stejně jako ostatní tři parfémy z této řady, ztělesňuje mocnou lidskou touhu udržet si nádherný moment. Parfém XIX March, inspirovaný tradicí zakládání velkých hranic v noci 18. března (odtud název parfému), na kterých se pálí větévky a křoviny jako rozloučení se zimou a uvolnění místa pro jarní obrodu, vytvořil Paolo Terenzi, renomovaný návrhář parfémů a jeden z potomků zakladatele značky Evelina Terenzi. Tiziana Terenzi XIX March zachycuje atmosféru tradičního svátku (La Focarina di S. Giuseppe), při kterém se lidé shromáždí kolem hranice, starší lidé vypráví dětem příběhy a ti nejodvážnější mladíci skáčou přes oheň, aby dokázali svou odvahu. Oheň spálí všechna trápení a strasti, otevírá prostor pro očekávání příchodu jara a rozněcuje naději. Vzduch je naplněn intenzivními vůněmi, svěžestí a novotou a současně dávnověkostí. Ve vůni Tiziana Terenzi XIX March se setkává svět starých lidových tradic s naprosto inovativní vonnou texturou. Vonná kompozice Tiziana Terenzi XIX March se v hlavě otevírá akordy pomeranče, zelených listů, máty a kopřivy. V srdci zavoní levandule, skořice, hřebíček a jasmín a základ tvoří tóny santalového dřeva, cedru, vetiveru, pižma, muškátového oříšku a rozmarýnu. Celkové aroma XIX March magicky propojuje aromatické, dřevité a zelené stránky s hřejivým i svěžím kořením, a dokonale tak evokuje atmosféru momentu loučení se zimou a vítání jara, symbolu nových počátků a naděje. Současně svěží, jemný a poklidný parfém Tiziana Terenzi XIX March se hodí zejména na denní nošení. Nejlépe samozřejmě jeho přerodový charakter vynikne na přelomu zimy a jara. Svému nositeli vždy dodá pocit harmonie spojené s příjemným očekáváním. Tento parfém si zamilují zejména ženy a muži, kteří mají rádi aromatické dřevité vůně se zelenými a kořenitými stránkami. Vyzkoušet by XIX March měl také každý, kdo u parfému hledá inspirativnost a dokáže ocenit skutečnou kvalitu. Tiziana Terenzi XIX March zaujme také nápaditým a luxusním balením. Elegantní tmavý flakon doplňuje stylová krabička s výrazným zdobným logem. Vyzkoušejte parfém od originální italské rodinné značky a zamilujte se do vůně inspirované ohněm, symbolizujícím odchod zimy a jarní nadějeplné znovuzrození. Tiziana Terenzi XIX March – parfém ztělesňující tradici oslav jarní rovnodennosti.

Gerald Durrellâ ™s beloved account of his childhood in Corfu, now in Penguin Modern Classics for the first time â ˜When My Family and Other Animals was published it was as if someone had flung back the curtains, thrown up the windows and let in a stream of bright lightâ ™ - Kathryn Hughes, Guardianâ ˜Gerald Durrell was magicâ ™ - Sir David Attenborough Living in Corfu was rather like living in one of the more flamboyant and slapstick comic operasâ ™It is 1935 and the Durrells have escaped the leaden summer skies of Bournemouth to arrive â ˜like a troupe of medieval tumblersâ ™ on the sun-drenched island of Corfu for a new life. Gerald Durrellâ ™s beloved portrayal of his chaotic family â “ beatific Mother, Roger the dog, diet-obsessed Margo, book-loving Lawrence and gun-wielding Leslie â “ as well as his own adventures with a burgeoning menagerie of beasts, birds and insects (including an owl called Ulysses), is a timeless account of an idyllic childhood and an uproarious portrait of the English abroad.

Part autobiography, part travelogue, and wholly a tribute to the unspoilt beauty of southern Spain, Gerald Brenan s South from Granada includes an introduction by Chris Stewart, author of the bestselling Driving Over Lemons, in Penguin Modern Classics.Between 1920 and 1934, Gerald Brenan lived in the remote Spanish village of Yegen and South of Granada depicts his time there, vividly evoking the essence of his rural surroundings and the Spanish way of life before the Civil War. Here he portrays the landscapes, festivals and folk-lore of the Sierra Nevada, the rivalries, romances and courtship rituals, village customs, superstitions and characters. Fascinating details emerge, from cheap brothels to archaeological remains, along with visits from Brenan s friends from the Bloomsbury group - Lytton Strachey and Virginia Woolf among them. Knowledgeable, elegant and sympathetic, this is a rich account of Spain s vanished past.Gerald Brenan (1894-1987) was an English writer who spent much of his life in Spain. He is best known for The Spanish Labyrinth, a work of history on the background to the Spanish Civil War and for South From Granada: Seven Years in an Andalusian Village. He was awarded a CBE in 1982, and was much honoured in SpainIf you enjoyed South from Granada, you might like Orwell s Homage to Catalonia, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

If you are going to care for someone, you must first understand them. If you re going to hire, marry, or befriend someone, you have to be able to see them. If you are going to work closely with someone, you have to be able to make them feel recognized and valued.As David Brooks observes, The older I get, the more I come to the certainty that there is one skill at the center of any healthy family, company, classroom, community or nation: the ability to see each other, to know other people, to make them feel valued, heard and understood. And yet we humans don t do this well. All around us are people who feel invisible, unseen, misunderstood. In How to Know a Person, Brooks sets out to help us to do better, posing questions that are essential for all of us.Driven by his trademark sense of curiosity, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscience, and from the worlds of theatre, history, and education, to present a welcoming, hopeful, integrated approach to human connection. How to Know a Person helps readers become more understanding and considerate towards others; it helps readers find the joy that comes from being seen. Along the way it offers a possible remedy for a society that is riven by fragmentation, hostility, and misperception.The act of seeing another person, Brooks argues, is a profoundly creative act: How can we look somebody in the eye and see something large in them, and in turn, see something larger in ourselves? How to Know a Person is for anyone searching for connection, seeking to understand and yearning to be understood.

But dark forces were on the move from the Northlands, and it was left to Bremen and those few who supported him in his work with the arcane arts to stand against the enemy s seemingly-invincible Troll army. For at the heart of the evil tide was an archmage and former Druid named Brona...Using the special skills he had acquired through his own study of Magic, Bremen was able to penetrate the huge camp of the Troll army and learn many of its secrets. And he immediately understood that if the peoples of the Four Lands were to escape eternal subjugation they would need to unite. But, even when united, they would need a weapon, something so powerful that the evil magic of Brona, the Warlock Lord, would fail before its might...Praise for Terry Brooks: A master of the craft . . . required reading Brent Weeks I can t even begin to count how many of Terry Brooks s books I ve read (and re-read) over the years Patrick Rothfuss, author of The Name of the Wind I would not be writing epic fantasy today if not for Shannara Peter V.

Those who escaped the carnage were led to sanctuary by the boy saviour known as Hawk: the gypsy morph. But now, the unimaginable has come to pass: the cocoon of protective magic surrounding the valley has vanished. When Sider Ament, last surviving Knight of the Word, detects unknown predators stalking the valley, and Trackers from the human village of Glensk Wood find two of their own gruesomely killed, there can be no doubt: the once safe haven of generations has been laid bare. Together, the young Trackers, the aging Knight and a daring Elf princess race to spread word of the encroaching danger. But suspicion and hostility among their countrymen threaten to doom their efforts from within, while beyond the breached borders, a ruthless Troll army masses for invasion.
