Nothing Belongs to You - Nathacha Appanah

"A novel of exceptional emotional force" John Self, Guardian****A Financial Times Fiction in Translation Book of the Year 2023*** It''s not only grief and loneliness that have tormented Tara since her husband''s death. In her, something rises and crests like a wave. As she sits in squalor in a house that once knew love, she hears the deafening cry of a past she thought was stifled and the resurgence of the person she had been before. A girl with another name, who loved to laugh and dance, who believed in the innocence of childhood until she was overtaken by her country''s demons. With her characteristic lyricism and precision, Nathacha Appanah offers us total immersion into a world of lost futures and hidden pasts, in which the implacable hand of fate can only be resisted at a price.Translated from the French by Jeffrey Zuckerman

What Belongs to You - Garth Greenwell

Winner of the Debut of the Year Award at the British Book Awards. Shortlisted for the James Tait Black Prize. On an unseasonably warm autumn day, an American teacher enters a public bathroom beneath Sofia's National Palace of Culture. There he meets Mitko, a charismatic young hustler, and pays him for sex. He returns to Mitko again and again over the next few months, their relationship growing increasingly intimate and unnerving. As he struggles to reconcile his longing with the anguish it creates, he's forced to grapple with his own fraught history: his formative experiences of love, his painful rejection by family and friends, and the difficulty of growing up as a gay man in southern America in the 1990s. Startlingly erotic and immensely powerful, Garth Greenwell's What Belongs to You tells an unforgettable story about the ways our pasts and cultures, our scars and shames can shape who we are and determine how we love. Longlisted for the National Book Award in Fiction. A Finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction. A Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Fiction.

Poslední bratr - Nathacha Appanah

Devítiletý Rádž netuší, že je válka. Má jiné starosti - přišel o dva bratry, otec je tyran a opilec... Rádž se mu snaží klidit z očí a toulá se. Místní vězení ho přitahuje jako magnet. Co je to za tou vysokou zdí za podivné lidi? Co provedli, jsou nebezpeční? A pak se pohledem střetne s chlapcem, jako je on sám; mohl by být jeho bratrem, ale je tak jiný. Černovlasý a snědý Rádž se narodil na Mauriciu, David je židovský chlapec z Prahy s andělskými blond loknami. K jejich osudovému setkání dojde na ostrově Mauricius, kam v roce 1940 připlula loď Atlantic se zhruba 1500 židovskými utečenci ze střední Evropy, z nichž několik stovek pocházelo z bývalé ho Československa. Britské úřady jim z politických a taktických důvodů nepovolily zůstat v Palestině, kam se po velkých útrapách málem dostali, ale zřídily pro ně internační tábor ve starém vězení na Mauriciu. Docházelo k násilí i bezpráví, na které by se rádo zapomnělo. Zapomenout se pokusil i Rádž, ale jako sedmdesátník k sobě vzpomínku na svého posledního bratra, na Davida, pustí zpět. Nathacha Appanah kouzelným jazykem připomíná krutou, téměř neznámou součást dějin naší západní civilizace, viděnou očima dítěte.

You Will Own Nothing - Carol Roth

The New York Times bestselling author and entrepreneur investigates what would happen if a new financial world order took hold, one in which global elites own everything and you own nothing-and yet you are somehow happy. When Carol Roth first heard that one of the World Economic Forum's predictions for 2030 was "You will own nothing, and be happy," she thought it was an outlandish fantasy. Then, she researched it.What she found was that a number of businesses, governments, and global elites share a vision of a future that sounds utopian: Everyone will have everything they need, and no one will own anything. From declines in home and vehicle ownership to global inflation and government spending, many of the trends of modern life reveal that a new world that is emerging-one in which Western citizens, by choice or by circumstance, increasingly do not own possessions or accumulate wealth. It's the perfect economic environment for the rich and powerful to solidify their positions and prevent anyone else from getting ahead.In You Will Own Nothing Roth reveals how the agendas of Wall Street, world governments, international organizations, socialist activists, and multinational corporations like Blackrock all work together to reduce the power of ...

If I Have to Tell You One More Time... - Amy McCready

Why does it feel sometimes as if our children have special powers that enable them to tune us out completely? You ask your child to do her homework, get ready for school or bedtime. You think she heard you but...no response. You tried everything - time-outs, nagging, counting to three - and nothing seems to work. In this invaluable book, founder of the popular online parenting course, Postive Parenting Solutions, Amy McCready presents a nag and scream-free programme for compassionately, yet effectively, correcting your childs behaviour.In IF I HAVE TO TELL YOU ONE MORE TIME.... McCready draws on Adlerian psychology, which focuses on the central idea that every human being has a basic need to feel powerful - children being no exception to the rule. According to McCready, when this need isn''t met in positive ways, kids resort to negative methods. She provides parents with a virtual toolbox that they can use to give their children the power they crave - and do away with the misbehaving that adults dread.

''A beautiful blend of storytelling, science and practical tools. Smith uses her expertise to introduce true boundary setting tools to build (and rebuild) our relationships to others and ourselves.'' Eve Rodsky, New York Times bestselling author of Fair PlayWhen''s the last time you felt as composed as you portray to your boss, family and friends? If there''s a discord between the two, you''re not alone. Humans are master pretenders - we often seem stronger, calmer and more mature than we really are, while the truth is we''re full of doubts and self-criticism that pushes us to borrow reassurance from friends, beliefs from strangers on the internet, or attention that, in the moment, makes us feel successful, but leaves us totally hollow and burnt out. Dr. Smith uses examples from her own life and the lives of her therapy patients to explain how we borrow confidence, calmness and beliefs from our relationships and offers solutions and steps for building a life with our own best-thinking. She also unpacks the science of our social nature, explaining why we''re so focused on others and teaching us how to interrupt anxious relationship patterns.
