Written during her time as the inaugural fellow in the Beckett archive last year, Eimear McBride''s three short, characteristically brilliant texts – collected in one work, Mouthpieces.Each text depicts a fragment of female experience, all of them told in in Eimear''s vivid, original and sharp-witted style. In ''The Adminicle Exists'', we hear the inner voice of a woman who saves her troubled, dangerous partner; in ''An Act of Violence'', a woman is quizzed about her reaction to a man’s death; in ''The Eye Machine'', the character ‘Eye’ tells of her imprisonment, flickering through a slideshow of female stereotypes.

The searing, must-read feminist essay from the author of A Girl is a Half-formed Thing''Fearless ... A fierce and fascinating manifesto in McBride''s persuasive prose'' Sinéad Gleeson''Formidable'' VogueIn this galvanizing essay, Eimear McBride unpicks the contradictory forces of disgust and objectification that control and shame women. From playground taunts of ''only sluts do it'' but ''virgins are frigid'', to ladette culture, and the arrival of ''ironic'' porn, via Debbie Harry, the Kardashians and the Catholic church - she looks at how this prejudicial messaging has played out in the past, and still surrounds us today. McBride asks - are women still damned if we do, damned if we don''t? How can we give our daughters (and sons) the unbounded futures we want for them? And, in this moment of global crisis, might our gift for juggling contradiction help us to find a way forward?''A satisfying feminist polemic'' Susie Orbach''Remarkable'' Scotsman''Eimear McBride is that old fashioned thing, a genius'' Guardian

Martin ScorseseJohn Ford''s many classic movies - among them Stagecoach, The Grapes of Wrath, The Quiet Man, The Searchers, and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance - earned him worldwide praise and renown. Now Joseph McBride presents us with the definitive account of the man''s myriad complexities and contradictions, tracing Ford''s life from his modest beginnings as ''Bull'' Feeney, the nearsighted football-playing son of Irish immigrants in Maine, to his recognition, after a long, controversial, and much-decorated career, as America''s national myth-maker. This deeply insightful and impeccably documented narrative is the epic tribute that Ford''s stature merits.

If you stop any person on the street and ask them what causes heart disease, you know what their answer will be: butter and eggs, meat and fat. This infamous Diet-Heart Hypothesis was proposed in 1953, and it took scientists all over the world a few decades to prove it wrong. The trouble is that while science was beginning to cast doubt upon its basic tenets, the Diet-Heart Hypothesis was giving rise to a powerful and wealthy political and commercial machine with a vested interest in promoting it—by means of anti-fat and anti-cholesterol propaganda presented relentlessly and with increasing intensity.In this book Dr. Campbell-McBride tackles the subject of CHD (Coronary Heart Disease), caused by atherosclerosis, a disease of the arterial wall that leads to narrowing and obstruction of the arteries. She maintains that conventional medicine does not actually know the cause of atherosclerosis or how to cure it, and explores in this book what it is, what causes it, and how to prevent and reverse it. She dispels the myth of the Diet-Heart Hypothesis, and explains that cholesterol is not the enemy but an integral and important part of our cell membranes.

Some years change the course of history. 2020 was one of those years. As a pandemic, lockdowns, and an economic downturn convulsed America, police killings of George Floyd and other African Americans touched off the largest protest movement in U.S. history. At the same time, mass shootings soared; many states saw unprecedented increases in gun-related incidents. Churning in the background were a bitter presidential election campaign and counterprotests opposing public health measures and the election result itself. Mayors of cities big and small struggled with some of these challenges, but Dennis McBride, the new mayor of a mid-sized, mostly-White suburb bordered by the majority-minority City of Milwaukee – called the "heartland of the heartland" – faced them all.

A City on the Edge is the gripping story of how he and other mayors have steered America's hometowns through a storm of personal and political divisions. Though the chaos of 2020 has gradually subsided, it is still reverberating in the nation's economy, politics, and psyche. The changes sparked by the events of that historic year continue to vex ...
