Osobná spoveď mladej židovky o jej úniku z náboženskej sekty. Satmárska sekta, spoločenstvo odštiepené od chasidského judaizmu, ľudí zvonka láka svojím tajomnom. Deborah Feldmanová vo svojich memoároch odhaľuje, ako sa žije v osídlach náboženských tradícií, vo svete, ktorý si mlčanie a utrpenie cení viac než slobodu jednotlivca. Deborah vyrastala vo svete, kde sa všetko riadi podľa neúprosných pravidiel a zvykov, ktoré rozhodujú o všetkom, počnúc tým, čo si smie obliecť, s kým sa smie rozprávať, až po to, čo smie a nesmie čítať. Aj napriek týmto obmedzeniam z nej vyrástla nezávislá mladá žena, potajomky hltajúca príbehy silných literárnych hrdiniek Jane Austenovej a Louisy May Alcottovej, ktoré jej pomohli vytvárať si predstavu iného spôsobu života. Už ako tínedžerka sa ocitla v sexuálne i emocionálne nefunkčnom manželstve s mužom, ktorého takmer nepoznala. Jej vnútorné napätie medzi nenaplnenými túžbami a povinnosťou žiť tak, ako sa na vzornú židovku patrí, vyvrcholilo v momente, keď sa ako devätnásťročná stala matkou. Vtedy si naplno uvedomila, že - bez ohľadu na prekážky - kvôli sebe a svojmu synovi musí uniknúť. Strhujúci príbeh odvážnej hrdinky... Neortodoxná je trýznivá, no povznášajúca. - Jeannette Wallsová, autorka knižného hitu Sklený zámok Neodolateľné čítanie! Neortodoxná je jedinečným príbehom o dospievaní, ktorý osloví každého, kto sa už niekedy vo svojom živote cítil ako outsider. - mesačník School Library Journal Nebývalý pohľad do chasidskej komunity, kam sa človek zvonka len tak ľahko nedostane. - denník Minneapolis Star-Tribune DEBORAH FELDMANOVÁ vyrastala v satmárskom spoločenstve chasidských židov v štvrti Williamsburg, v newyorskom Brooklyne. Jej rodným jazykom je jidiš. Od roku 2014 žije so synom v Berlíne, kde pracuje na svojom prvom po nemecky písanom románe.

From twice Booker-shortlisted author Deborah Levy, a moving and revelatory collection exploring the muses that have shaped her life and work as a writerIn The Position of Spoons, Deborah Levy invites the reader into the interiors of her world, sharing her most intimate thoughts and experiences, as she traces and measures her life against the backdrop of the literary and artistic muses that have shaped her. From Marguerite Duras to Colette and Ballard, and from Lee Miller to Francesca Woodman and Paula Rego, we can relish here the richness of their work and, in turn the richness of the author’s own. Each page draws upon Levy’s life in exalting ways, encapsulating the wonderful precision and astonishing depth of her writing, as she seamlessly shifts between and meditates on questions of mortality, language, suburbia, gender, consumerism and the poetics of every day living. From the child born in South Africa, to her teenage years in Britain, to her travels across the world as a young woman, each page is a beautiful, tender composition of the questioning self: a portrait of Deborah Levy’s writing life and intellectual vitality in all of its dimensions.

Now a Netflix original series! Unorthodox is the bestselling memoir of a young Jewish woman s escape from a religious sect, in the tradition of Ayaan Hirsi Ali s Infidel and Carolyn Jessop s Escape, featuring a new epilogue by the author. As a member of the strictly religious Satmar sect of Hasidic Judaism, Deborah Feldman grew up under a code of relentlessly enforced customs governing everything from what she could wear and to whom she could speak to what she was allowed to read. Yet in spite of her repressive upbringing, Deborah grew into an independent-minded young woman whose stolen moments reading about the empowered literary characters of Jane Austen and Louisa May Alcott helped her to imagine an alternative way of life among the skyscrapers of Manhattan. Trapped as a teenager in a sexually and emotionally dysfunctional marriage to a man she barely knew, the tension between Deborah s desires and her responsibilities as a good Satmar girl grew more explosive until she gave birth at nineteen and realized that, regardless of the obstacles, she would have to forge a path-for herself and her son-to happiness and freedom. Remarkable and fascinating, this sensitive and memorable coming-of-age story (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette) is one you won t be able to put down.

Times Literary Supplement Book of the YearPegasus Award for Poetry Criticism, Poetry Foundation, ChicagoRichard J. Finneran Award, Society for Textual ScholarshipBest Scholarly Edition Award, Modernist Studies AssociationThe Poems of T. S. Eliot is the authoritative edition of one of our greatest poets, scrupulously edited by Christopher Ricks and Jim McCue. It provides, for the first time, a fully scrutinized text of Eliot s poems, carefully restoring accidental omissions and removing textual errors that have crept in over the full century in which Eliot has been so frequently printed and reprinted. The edition also presents many poems from Eliot s youth which were published only decades later, as well as others that saw only private circulation in his lifetime, of which dozens are collected for the first time. To accompany Eliot s poems, Christopher Ricks and Jim McCue have provided a commentary that illuminates the creative activity that came to constitute each poem, calling upon drafts, correspondence and other original materials to provide a vivid account of the poet s working processes, his reading, his influences and his revisions. The first volume respects Eliot s decisions by opening with his Collected Poems 1909-1962 in the form in which he issued it, shortly before his death fifty years ago. There follow in this first volume the uncollected poems from his youth that he had chosen to publish, along with such other poems as could be considered suitable for publication. The second volume opens with the two books of poems of other kinds that he issued, Old Possum s Book of Practical Cats and his translation of Perse s Anabase, moving then to verses privately circulated as informal or improper or clubmanlike. Each of these sections is accompanied by its respective commentary, and then, pertaining to the entire edition, there is a comprehensive textual history recording variants both manuscript and published. The Poems of T. S. Eliot is a work of enlightening scholarship that will delight and inform all those who read Eliot for pleasure, as well as all those who read with pleasure and for study. Here are a new accuracy and an unparalleled insight into the marvels and landmarks from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock and The Waste Land through to Four Quartets.

These are the compelling and formally inventive poems—casually composed, for example, in his office at The Museum of Modern Art, in the street at lunchtime or on the Staten Island Ferry en route to a poetry reading—that made O Hara a dynamic leader of the New York School of poets.This new limited 50th anniversary edition contains a preface by John Ashbery and an editor s note by City Lights publisher Lawrence Ferlinghetti, along with facsimile reproductions of a selection of previously unpublished correspondence between Ferlinghetti and O Hara that shed new light on the preparation of Lunch. I hope that everyone will delight in the new edition of Frank s LUNCH POEMS. The correspondence between Lawrence and Frank is great. Frank was just 33 when he wrote to Lawrence in 1959 and 38 when LUNCH POEMS was published! The fact that City Lights kept Frank s LUNCH POEMS in print all these years has been extraordinary, wonderful and a constant comfort. Hurray for independent publishers and independent bookstores. Many thanks always to Lawrence Ferlinghetti and everyone at City Lights. —Maureen O Hara, sister of Frank O Hara O Hara speaks directly across the decades to our hopes and fears and especially our delights; his lines are as intimate as a telephone call. Few books of his era show less age. —Dwight Garner, New York Times As collections go, none brings . . . quality to the fore more than the thirty-seven Lunch Poems, published in 1964 by City Lights. —Nicole Rudick, The Paris Review What O Hara is getting at is a sense of the evanescence, and the power, of great art, that inextricable contradiction — that what makes it moving and transcendent is precisely our knowledge that it will pass away. This is the ethos at the center of Lunch Poems: not the informal or the conversational for their own sake but rather in the service of something more intentional, more connective, more engaged. —David L. Ulin, Los Angeles TImes The collection broadcasts snark, exuberance, lonely earnestness, and minute-by-minute autobiography to a wide, vague audience—much like today s Twitter and Facebook feeds. —Micah Mattix, The Atlantic

: V roce 2001 krátce po pádu Tálibánu přiletěla Deborah Rodriguezová, kadeřnice z Michiganu a matka dvou dětí, do Afghánistánu jako členka týmu, který obyvatelům této válkou zpustošené země přijel nabídnout humanitární pomoc. Po počátečním tápání se jí zrodil v hlavě nápad, jehož jedinečnost neměla v tom čase obdoby: navázala na kdysi hrdou tradici afghánských salonů krásy a díky podpoře mezinárodních sponzorů otevřela Kábulskou školu krásy, která by ženám zaručila schopnost zajistit rodině obživu. Zájemkyně o studium se jen hrnuly a mezi učitelkou a jejími studentkami se i přes občasná nedorozumění a kulturní i jazykovou bariéru rychle vytvořilo přátelské pouto. Deborah tak měla možnost nahlédnout do nelehkých osudů žen, které se často musely vyrovnávat s následky válečné tragédie či osobního traumatu, ať šlo o dívku, kterou ve dvanácti prodali do manželství, protože její rodina potřebovala zaplatit dluhy, či manželku stoupence Tálibánu, který se bitím snažil ženu donutit, aby studium ukončila. Nevšední vyprávění, v němž autorka s vřelostí a humorem líčí životní příběhy žen, jež se sešly proto, aby si společně osvojily umění trvalé ondulace, přátelství a svobody.

Showcasing the creative power of one of the most outstanding English Metaphysical Poets, the Penguin Classics edition of John Donne s Selected Poems includes an introduction and notes by Ilona Bell.Regarded by many as the greatest of the Metaphysical poets, John Donne was also among the most intriguing figures of the Renaissance. A sensualist who composed erotic and playful love poetry in his youth, he was raised a Catholic but later became one of the most admired Protestant preachers of his time. The Selected Poems reflects this wide diversity, and includes his youthful Songs and Sonnets, epigrams, elegies, letters, satires, and the profoundly moving Divine Poems composed towards the end of his life. From joyful poems such as The Flea , which transforms the image of a louse into something marvellous, to the intimate and intense Holy Sonnets, Donne breathed new vigour into poetry by drawing lucid and often startling metaphors from the world in which he lived. His poems remain among the most passionate, profound and spiritual in the English language.Ilona Bell s introduction considers Donne s life, faith and influence. This edition also includes detailed notes and a further reading list.John Donne (1572-1631) was born into a family of devout Catholics. He studied at Oxford University, travelled on the continent, and then studied law at Lincoln s Inn. In the early 1600s Donne became a Member of Parliament and Justice of the Peace, obtaining temporary positions and patronage from a number of aristocrats who are the subjects of his poems. He was ordained as an Anglican minister in 1615, and in 1621 was made Dean of St. Paul s Cathedral, a position he held until his death.If you enjoyed Donne s Selected Poems, you might enjoy John Milton s Paradise Lost, also available in Penguin Classics.

Internationally beloved opera star Deborah Voigt recounts her harrowing and ultimately successful private battles to overcome the addictions and self-destructive tendencies that nearly destroyed her life.Call Me Debbie is one of the most electrifying performances of Deborah Voigt’s life. The brilliantly gifted opera soprano takes us behind the velvet curtains to tell her compelling story—a tale of success, addiction, music, and faith as dramatic as any role she has performed. For the first time, she talks about the events that led to her dangerous gastric bypass surgery in 2004 and its shocking aftermath: her substantial weight loss coupled with the “cross addiction” that led to severe alcoholism, frightening all-night blackouts, and suicide attempts. Ultimately, Voigt emerged from the darkness to achieve complete sobriety, thanks to a twelve-step program and a recommitment to her Christian faith.Colored by hilarious anecdotes and juicy gossip that illuminate what really goes on backstage, Voigt paints diverting portraits of the artists with whom she’s worked, her most memorable moments onstage, and her secrets to great singing. She also offers fascinating insight into the roles she’s played and the characters she loves, including Strauss’s Ariadne and Salome, Puccini’s Minnie, and Wagner’s Sieglinde, Isolde, and Brünnhilde, sharing her intense preparation for playing them.Filled with eight pages of color photos, Call Me Debbie is an inspirational story that offers a unique look into the life of a modern artist and a remarkable woman.

Drug transporters. Money launderers. Killers. Street drug vendors. Weapons traffickers. Kidnappers. Extortionists.VICE journalist Deborah Bonello reports from the trenches in this first-ever in-depth exploration of the hidden power women wield in Latin American drug cartelsYou ve heard of Pablo Escobar, Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, and Rafael Caro Quintero. Their names conjure ghoulish images of bloody streets, white powder, bundles of weed, and a particular flavor of machismo unique to ruthless drug lords. But what of the drug ladies, las narcas? Investigative reporter Deborah Bonello takes you behind the curtain to introduce the women at the helm of organized crime south of the US-Mexico border. These women are the powerhouses behind violent cartels, masterminds of extortion rackets, right-hand ladies to El Chapo and his cocaine flow to the US, and matriarchs of major drug trafficking families. In these pages, you will meet women like Doña Digna, the leader of the Valle cartel, and Guadalupe Fernandez Valencia, one of “El Chapo” Guzman’s closest confidants.Narcas, for the first time, gives voice to the women of notorious drug trafficking monarchies, meticulously documenting the variety of roles they play. Bonello chronicles the complexity of their actions and their desires, the gray chasm between victims and victimizers, co-option and agency, and right and wrong. She also examines why women’s experiences are under-reported, emphasizing the importance of understanding women as fully capable beings who are often as ambitious, innovative, ruthless, and violent as their male counterparts.With careful detail, comprehensive research, and groundbreaking storytelling, Narcas paints a vivid picture of the women behind some of the most notorious drug cartels. You will not see Sebastiana Cottón or Marixa Lemus in the stereotypical portrayals of beautiful narco wives or girlfriends like Emma Coronel Aispuro, or in the faces of trafficking survivors or drug mules. Rather, you’ll encounter—at staggering rates—the female cartel killers, money launderers, logistical heads, and transporters of Latin America’s infamous crime syndicates.
