As any feminist who talks about the problems of girls and women will know, the first question you will ever be asked is 'But what about MEN?' After eleven years of writing bestsellers about women and dismissing this question, having been very sure that the concerns of feminism and men are very different things, Caitlin Moran realised that this wasn't quite right, and that the problems of feminism are also the problems of, yes, men.So, what about men? Why do they only go to the doctor if their wife or girlfriend makes them? Why do they never discuss their penises with each other - but make endless jokes about their balls? What is porn doing for young men? Is their fondness for super-skinny jeans leading to an epidemic of bad mental health? Are men allowed to be sad? Are men allowed to lose? Have Men's Rights Activists confused 'power' with 'empowerment'? And is Jordan B Peterson just your mum - but with some mad theory about a lobster?In this book, Caitlin intends to answer all this and more - because if men haven't yet answered the question 'What About Men?', it's going to be down to a busy woman to do it.

From No. 1 bestselling author Beth Moran comes a story about family, friends and facing your fears.Thirty-three-year-old Ruth Henderson and her daughter Maggie have some hard choices to make. Following the tragic death of Maggie’s father, they are left with a mountain of debt and broken hearts. So, despite her vow never to return home after the fall-out from her teenage pregnancy, Ruth can’t see any option other than for the two of them to move back in with her parents. Going home means many things – finally confronting her estranged father, navigating her mother’s desperate need to make everything ok despite the wobbles in her own marriage, not to mention helping a still-grieving Maggie to settle into a new school, find new friends, and stop expressing her emotions through her ever-changing hair colour. What Ruth needs are friends, but she abandoned her childhood ones when she left all those years ago. Luckily for Ruth, they haven’t abandoned her. Slowly she lets herself be embraced by a group of women who have always had her back – even when she didn’t know it. And as the grief and shock recede, Ruth can even begin to imagine sharing her life with someone other than just Maggie – if Maggie will let her.

Když se dnes řekne "Moráň", málokdo si pod tímto názvem dovede něco konkrétního vybavit. Znalejší čtenáře by snad mohl napadnout název jedné pražské lokality pod Karlovým náměstím. Zřejmě však jen těm opravdu nejznalejším se vybaví jméno dnes již zaniklé osady ve středních Čechách. Až do roku 1954, kdy byla téměř kompletně zatopena vzdutou hladinou Slapské přehrady, se osada Moráň rozkládala na břehu řeky Vltavy, přímo na rozhraní okresů Příbram, Benešov a Praha-západ. Na rozdíl od ostatních letovisek, nacházejících se dnes kolem přehradního jezera, zmizela osada Moráň i se svým jménem. Na její existenci si v současnosti vzpomenou již jen opravdoví místní pamětníci. Mladší generace a návštěvníci chatových osad a letovisek již v drtivé většině ani netuší, že kdy nějaká Moráň vůbec existovala. Hlavním důvodem vzniku publikace Moráň - zaniklá ves při Vltavě byla snaha připomenout tuto zaniklou osadu a navrátit ji zpět do povědomí nejen obyvatel Povltaví, ale i širší veřejnosti. Od roku 1954, kdy osada nenávratně zmizela pod hladinou Vltavy, název Moráň vymizel postupně jak z map, tak i z povědomí lidí. Starší generace si při listování knihou jistě zavzpomíná na ztracené krásy Povltaví, mladší se snad dozví něco málo o zajímavé historii regionu. Jde o obrazový dokument, po jehož prostudování by si měl čtenář udělat konkrétní představu o tom, jak to na Moráni vypadalo a kde přesně se co nacházelo. Měl by mít pocit, jako kdyby to tam znal odjakživa. V knize je použito kolem osmdesáti unikátních, a často dosud nepublikovaných fotografií. Snímky jsou opatřeny krátkými popisky a celou obrazovou část doplňuje text o historii osady, zpracovaný na základě dnes dostupné regionální literatury, archivních dokumentů i vzpomínek rodáků a pamětníků. Kniha je doplněna několika přehlednými mapkami včetně historické letecké fotomapy z roku 1949. Použito je i několik unikátních plánů nejvýznamnějších budov. Celou publikaci uzavírá několik snímků ze současnosti. Čtenářům se tak prostřednictvím této skromné knihy dostává do rukou nejen dílo historicky-vlastivědného zaměření, ale i obrazová publikace, která široké veřejnosti srozumitelným způsobem přiblíží další střípek ze života obyvatel Povltaví v 1. polovině 20. století.

From No. 1 bestselling author Beth Moran comes a story about family, friendship and community.As Faith tries on her future mother-in-law’s wedding dress in preparation for her own wedding, her tears are not of joy. The hideous frock is nicknamed ‘The Ghost Web’ by Faith’s best friend Marilyn, who can’t understand why Faith would even consider wearing it. But there’s a lot Marilyn doesn’t know about Faith – not the least of which is that Faith is just the latest of the names she has called herself. Faith and her brother Sam survived a traumatic childhood which included having to change their names to hide from the past, but surviving has left scars. Faith’s generous fiancé Perry doesn’t just promise to be a partner, he offers freedom and security, and enough kindness to keep Faith squashing down any doubts on what ‘being in love’ really means. It’s not until she meets an extraordinary group of women at the Grace Chapel choir, that things start to become crystal clear. As choir-leader extraordinaire, the indomitable Hester, holds a mirror up to her ragtag group of singers, all with their own burdens and insecurities, and teaches them to see how magnificent they are, so Faith can dare to dream of a future where she and Sam can stop running and she might even be ready to accept the love that she deserves. Number 1 bestselling author Beth Moran is back with her trademark ingredients of wisdom and warmth, heartbreak and hearts soaring. Perfect for fans of Jill Mansell, Philippa Ashley and Jenny Colgan.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The true story of an all-American girl, a boy from Zimbabwe, and the letter that changed both of their lives forever. It started as an assignment. Caitlin had never even heard of Zimbabwe when everyone in her class was told to write a letter to an unknown student in a distant place. Excited for the first time about homework, she went home that night and wrote about her favorite color and what sports she played, and asked her mystery pen-pal about life in Zimbabwe. Martin had never heard of Pennsylvania when he read Caitlin’s letter. He was lucky to even receive a pen-pal letter—his class only received ten letters for fifty kids! But as the top student, he got the first one. He wrote Caitlin back, talking about his siblings and soccer and saying he hoped she wrote again. These letters were the beginning of a correspondence that spanned six years and changed two lives. In this compelling dual memoir, Caitlin and Martin recount how they became best friends—and better people—through their inspiring long-distance exchange.Praise for I Will Always Write Back"An inspiring story that will change your life, too." ―Patricia McCormick, author of the National Book Award finalist Sold "A little miracle of unexpected genuineness." ―New York Times Book Review "Moving and uplifting." ―Award-winning author and journalist Peter Godwin

V roce 1913 se sufražetka Emily Wilding Davisonová vrhla pod kopyta králova koně… V roce 1970 vzaly feministky útokem Miss World… A nyní přichází kniha Caitlin Moranové… Nikdy v minulosti nebylo lepší být ženou. Máme volební právo, pilulky a od roku 1727 nás neupalují jako čarodějnice. Ale přece jen zbývá položit pár rýpavých otázek… Proč se od nás čeká, že budeme chodit na brazilskou depilaci? Měla byste zajít na botox? Je pravda, že nás muži vskrytu nenávidí? Jak máme nazývat svou vagínu? Proč bolí nosit podprsenku? A proč se vás všichni ptají, kdy už budete mít dítě? Caitlin Moranová zodpovídá tyto a další otázky v knize Jak být ženou, která je zčásti vyprávěním o životě autorky a zčásti plamennou tirádou. Moranovou sledujeme od jejích strašlivých třináctých narozenin („vážím osmdesát kilo, nemám žádné kamarády, a když mě vidí kluci, házejí na mě štěrk“) přes dospívání až po práci, striptýzové kluby, lásku, obezitu, potrat, nakupování, mateřství a ještě mnohem dál.

If you take the five basic flavour profiles – sweet, sour, salty, bitter, umami – then add the basic contrasts of a successful dish – smooth, crunchy, zingy, fatty, crispy – you soon realise that using pickles in your cooking can lay down some excellent funky beats. Having a range of pickles and preserves in your fridge is akin to your Spotify playlists: you can scan through them and, depending on your mood, use them to add verve to your dishes and your day. For Caitlin Ruth, when it comes to pickles she’s looking for taste, a contrast of flavours and a good way to make a funky dish. There are few dishes that can’t be improved by the addition of a pickle – and few fruits and vegetables that can’t be thrown into a jar in a 10-minute pickle project. With suggestions for how to eat and serve each pickle and tips on how to use them in surprising ways (think pickle-brined fries or a pickle zhoug), Caitlin puts the fun into funky to pack your plate with flavour.

During World War II, the United States Marine Corps (USMC) evolved into a powerful multi-division force, playing a central role in the Pacific theater. Among its lesser-known units were the Paramarines and the Raiders. The Paramarines, the Marine parachute troops, were formed in 1942, with the first operational unit taking part in the Guadalcanal and Tulagi battles. Though their only combat jump occurred in southern France with an OSS unit, they saw action as infantry in the Solomons Campaign before being disbanded in 1944. The Raiders, modeled after the British Commandos, were a hard-hitting assault force trained to strike swiftly from any location. The initial group trained in Scotland became the foundation of the 1st and 2nd Raider Battalions. Pioneers in camouflage, they used black-dyed shirts and trousers, sprayed their green uniforms, and crafted helmet covers from burlap and netting. In this book, Jim Moran, a collector and researcher, delves into the uniforms and gear used by these elite units. Illustrated with over 200 photos, including close-ups of surviving items, it offers a detailed guide to their distinctive equipment. Supported by the US Marine Corps Historical Center, this work serves as an essential reference for collectors, historians, and enthusiasts.

The Lamoureux twins—Olympic gold medalists on the historic 2018 US women’s ice hockey team—tell their story of grit and determination, from youth hockey dominated by boys to the big business of elite international sports, fighting for gender equity in hockey, sports, and beyond.Dare to Make History is the story of two courageous and talented women who weren’t willing to accept anything less than being treated as equals. On their journey to a gold medal in women’s ice hockey, they became role models for generations before and after them. Twins Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson and Monique Lamoureux-Morando started playing ice hockey with their four older brothers and their friends on a frozen pond next to their home in North Dakota. No girls hockey teams, no problem―they just played on boys teams. They went on to win six World Championships and played in three Olympics, winning two silver medals and ultimately a gold medal in South Korea in 2018 for the USA Women’s National Team. They did not allow roadblocks and discrimination deter them from taking on their governing body—USA Hockey—threatening to boycott the 2017 World Championships and jeopardizing their ability to compete in the 2018 Olympics unless their gender equity issues were addressed. The success of Monique, Jocelyne, and their team thrust them into the center of the struggle for gender equity, for women in hockey and in sports in general, as well as in society at large. In Dare to Make History, the Lamoureux twins chronicle their journey to the pinnacle of their sport, their efforts along with almost 150 other hockey players to start a new professional women’s hockey league, their training to come back and make another national team after giving birth, their tireless efforts to advance the interests of disadvantaged communities in closing the digital divide, and their ongoing contributions as role models championing the dreams of future generations of girls in sports, education, and the workplace. This is not a hockey book. It is not a girls book. It is a book about the importance of the fight for equity, particularly gender equity. It is the inspirational story of how two young women from a small town in North Dakota have dreamed big—had the courage to take on huge battles—and in the end how they have dared to make history.

In a story reminiscent of A Year in Provence and We Bought a Zoo, a spontaneous drive from San Francisco to wine country leads a harried corporate executive and his family to a dilapidated 19th century Victorian home. They set out to return the house to its former grandeur—a journey that yields much more, ultimately restoring their hope for a well-rounded life.Consulting with internationally known CEOs and participating in high-stakes projects with millions of dollars and thousands of jobs on the line, Rich Moran knew the rule: there’s no room for error—no fumbling, misgivings, or delays. While attempting to lull a crying son to sleep, a wrong turn on a drive through Sonoma County sets him and his family on a life-changing adventure. They can’t resist a promise-laden 19th century home, looking past its rotting wraparound porch and leaky roof. When a good neighbor shows up with grapevines, the transformation of the property grows to include planting a vineyard and making wine. Before long, the family of city slickers morphs into country mice and joins an unexpected menagerie of people and critters in the shadow of Mount Saint Helena. Filled to the brim with all the eccentric follies you expect from a chance undertaking turned passion project, The Accidental Vineyard is a raucous, tender-hearted tale of planting the seeds of your passions and cultivating the life you want.

Autorka bestselleru Jak být ženou se vrací. Starší a zkušenější — a ještě vtipnější! Caitlin Moranová před deseti lety předpokládala, že má všechny trable za sebou. V globálním bestselleru Jak být ženou se vypořádala s patriarchátem, feminismem a vůbec vším, co obnáší moderní „ženství“, a měl ji čekat spokojený dospělý život plný skvělého sexu a harmonického rodičovství. Víc se mýlit nemohla. V nové a neméně úspěšné knize se proto populární spisovatelka zaobírá výzvami, které v současnosti čekají na „zralé“ ženy. Víc než žena je břitkým průvodcem dospělostí i smířením s faktem, že seznam povinností, potřeb a potíží se bude jen prodlužovat. Ale ať už to jsou stárnoucí rodiče, dospívající a náladové děti, odcizující se partner, nebo proměňující se vlastní tělo, Moranová neztrácí nadhled a smysl pro řádně kousavý humor. Stárnutí je v jejím pojetí oslavou života — i když obnáší nudný sex, protivné puberťáky a nezničitelné faldy. Nebo možná právě proto.

Majitelku pohřebního ústavu Caitlin Doughtyovou fascinuje všudypřítomný strach ze smrti, pokouší se proto zjistit, jak o své mrtvé pečují lidé v jiných kulturách. Hledání dobré smrti je poutavá cesta do různých koutů světa, na které poznáte tajemné a působivé pohřební rituály, o kterých se v našem prostředí téměř nic neví. Na indonéském venkově sleduje muže, jak umývá a obléká tělo svého mumifikovaného dědečka, s nímž už dva roky pobývá v rodinném domě. V La Paz objevuje bolivijské natitas (oslavované lidské lebky, co kouří cigarety a plní lidem přání). V Tokiu se seznamuje s japonským zvykem kotsuage, během kterého pozůstalí vybírají čínskými hůlkami kosti svých milovaných z popela. Píše o inovátorech v oblasti pohřebních služeb, kteří zkoumají kompostování lidského těla a ekologické pohřby. Snaží se zjistit, jak by nám různé tradice, od mexického svátku Día de los Muertos až po zoroastrijský nebeský pohřeb, mohly pomoci vidět naše vlastní pohřební zvyklosti v jiném světle. Vydejte se spolu s autorkou po světě za hledáním "dobré smrti". Je to cesta možná trochu morbidní, ale dobrodružná a nesmírně zajímavá, je to příběh o mnoha překvapivých a fascinujících způsobech, kterými se lidé po celém světě vyrovnávají s velmi lidskou výzvou - se smrtí.

Coming face-to-face with the very thing we go to great lengths to avoid thinking about, she started to wonder about the lives of those she cremated and the mourning families they left behind, and found herself confounded by people''s erratic reactions to death. Exploring our death rituals - and those of other cultures - she pleads the case for healthier attitudes around death and dying. Full of bizarre encounters, gallows humour and vivid characters (both living and very dead), this illuminating account makes this otherwise terrifying subject inviting and fascinating.

As a practising mortician, Caitlin Doughty has long been fascinated by our pervasive terror of dead bodies. In From Here to Eternity she sets out in search of cultures unburdened by such fears. With curiosity and morbid humour, Doughty introduces us to inspiring death-care innovators, participates in powerful death practices almost entirely unknown in the West and explores new spaces for mourning - including a futuristic glowing-Buddha columbarium in Japan, a candlelit Mexican cemetery, and America''s only open-air pyre. In doing so she expands our sense of what it means to treat the dead with ''dignity'' and reveals unexpected possibilities for our own death rituals.

On February 15, 2010, Joseph McStay, his wife Summer, and their two young sons were reported missing from their new home in San Diego County. They left eggs and fruit rotting on the counter. Their Dodge truck sat in the driveway. Their dogs were abandoned outside without food. But investigators found no blood, signs of a struggle, or clues to their whereabouts. Did the family take an unannounced vacation? Were they running away from personal problems? Or were they victims of foul play? Nearly four years later, a motorcyclist found the McStays'' remains in and around two shallow graves, one hundred miles away in the Mojave Desert. Their skulls showed signs of blunt-force trauma, likely due to the sledgehammer buried with them. Authorities focused on Charles ''Chase'' Merritt, a close friend and subcontractor for Joseph''s company. Despite a lack of physical evidence, scenarios that defied logic, and numerous unanswered questions, prosecutors convinced a jury of Merritt''s guilt. After an emotional sentencing hearing, the judge imposed the death penalty. But did another possible suspect, who was ignored by investigators and ducked a subpoena to testify, get away with murder? In this twisting, deeply researched true-crime mystery, New York Times bestselling investigative journalist Caitlin Rother hunts for answers to reveal the truth behind a heinous crime that became a nation''s obsession, with a controversial trial in its wake, and lingering questions of justice.

From the bestselling authors of Travel Home and Sense of Place, a comprehensive masterclass on interior design filled with practical tips, advice from some of the most respected names in the field, and inspirational examplesInterior designer Caitlin Flemming always gets asked how “the rules” of professional design can be applied to any home—how to pick a paint color and get better lighting, how to mix patterns, where to hang art and curtains, how to get the right scale and placement of furniture and rugs . . . the list of common questions goes on. While there’s no one way to design a space, there is a teachable art to creating a harmonious home. So Flemming and her coauthor Julie Goebel came up with the idea for this book—a design bible that divulges the wisdom vouchsafed only to the pros. In The Essentials, Flemming and Goebel consolidate everything it takes to create a beautiful and comfortable home, mining all the knowledge they’ve amassed from decades designing and styling homes and antiquing and traveling the world. They also ask their colleagues, some of the most talented designers in the world, to contribute advice as well. Organized in three parts, the first section of the book discusses the tacit knowledge that seasoned designers have and how to translate it without being a trained professional. The second, and meatiest, section of the book meticulously lays out the technical essentials for thoughtful home design, covering subjects such as lighting, hardware, textiles, window treatments, furniture, and more. And finally, the third section shows how all the individual elements and details combine to make a room, illustrated through tours of the inspiring homes of nine designers. It takes hard work and years of practice to develop and train an eye for design. This book shortcuts the process by sharing easily teachable techniques and breaking down the factors behind the many decisions that go into beautiful home design The Essentials is an indispensable reference for every design enthusiast.

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2019 ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING''Davies''s absorbing study serves up just enough sensationalism - and eccentricity - along with its serious inquiry'' SUNDAY TIMES''[A] revealing account of the jail''s 164-year history'' DAILY TELEGRAPH, 5* review''Insightful and thought-provoking and makes for a ripping good read'' JEREMY CORBYN''A much-needed and balanced history'' OBSERVER''Davies explores how society has dealt with disobedient women - from suffragettes to refugees to women seeking abortions - for decades, and how they''ve failed to silence those who won''t go down without a fight'' STYLISTSociety has never known what to do with its rebellious women. Those who defied expectations about feminine behaviour have long been considered dangerous and unnatural, and ever since the Victorian era they have been removed from public view, locked up and often forgotten about. Many of these women ended up at HM Prison Holloway, the self-proclaimed ''terror to evil-doers'' which, until its closure in 2016, was western Europe''s largest women''s prison. First built in 1852 as a House of Correction, Holloway''s women have come from all corners of the UK - whether a patriot from Scotland, a suffragette from Huddersfield, or a spy from the Isle of Wight - and from all walks of life - socialites and prostitutes, sporting stars and nightclub queens, refugees and freedom fighters. They were imprisoned for treason and murder, for begging, performing abortions and stealing clothing coupons, for masquerading as men, running brothels and attempting suicide. In Bad Girls, Caitlin Davies tells their stories and shows how women have been treated in our justice system over more than a century, what crimes - real or imagined - they committed, who found them guilty and why. It is a story of victimization and resistance; of oppression and bravery. From the women who escaped the hangman''s noose - and those who didn''t - to those who escaped Holloway altogether, Bad Girls is a fascinating look at how disobedient and defiant women changed not only the prison service, but the course of history.
