A riveting take on an extraordinary relationship - Richard Eden, Daily Mail A fresh and original approach - Hugo Vickers, Royal BiographerShe was sugar pink innocence; he was a handsome war hero. Both had royal blood coursing through their veins. The marriage of Britain s Princess Elizabeth to Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten in November 1947 is remembered as the beginning of an extraordinary, lifelong union but success was not guaranteed. Elizabeth and Philip: A Story of Young Love, Marriage and Monarchy plunges us back into the 1940s when a teenage princess fell in love with a foreign prince. Cue fears of a flirtatious Greek fortune hunter stealing off with Britain s crown jewel and Philip s supporters scrambling to reframe him as a good fit for the Royal Family. Drawing on original newspaper archives and the opinions of Elizabeth and Philip s contemporaries, historian Dr Tessa Dunlop discovers a post-war world on the cusp of major change. Unprecedented polling on Philip s suitability was a harbinger of pressures to come for a couple whose marriage was branded the ultimate global fairytale. Theirs was a partnership like no other. Six years after Elizabeth promised to be an obedient wife Philip got down on bended knee at the coronation and committed himself as the Queen s liege man of life and limb. Published 75 years after their marriage, this deeply touching history explores the ups and downs, the public appeal and the private tensions that defined an extraordinary relationship. The high stakes involved might have devoured a less committed pair - but Elizabeth and Philip shared a common purpose, one higher even than marriage, with roots much deeper than young love. Happy and Glorious, for better or for worse, how did their union succeed? Monarchy was the magic word.

The third in the late Philip Kerr s universally acclaimed Berlin Noir trilogy, A German Requiem sees detective Bernie Gunther enter the new and terrifying world of post-war Vienna. In the bitter winter of 1947 the Russian Zone is closing ever more tightly around Berlin. So when an enigmatic Russian colonel asks Bernie Gunther to go to Vienna, where his ex-Kripo colleague Emil Becker faces a murder charge, Bernie doesn t hesitate for long. Despite Becker s unsavoury past, Gunther is convinced that shooting an American Nazi-hunter is one crime he didn t commit.But Vienna is not the peaceful haven Bernie expects it to be. Communism is the new enemy, and with the Nuremberg trials over, some strange alliances are being forged against the Red Menace - alignments that make many wartime atrocities look lily-white by comparison.Vividly evoking the atmosphere of postwar Vienna, A Germen Requiem brings all Philip Kerr s pace and mordant wit to the tangle of guilt, suspicion, and double-dealing that laid the foundations for the Cold War. For Christmas, I would like all of Philip Kerr s Berlin Noir novels Sam Mendes, Guardian Philip Kerr is the contemporary master of the morally complex thriller New York Observer

FEATURING AN INTRODUCTION BY NICK CAVEâ ˜Warren has turned this memento, snatched from his idolâ ™s piano in a moment of rapture, into a genuine religious artefact.â ™NICK CAVE Such a mad, happy book about art and music and obsession. Iâ ™m so glad I got to read it. It made the world feel lighter. NEIL GAIMAN In praise of meaning-rich relics and magical things. Totally heartwarming project. MAX PORTER A unique study of a fanâ ™s devotion, of transcendence and of the artistic vocation â ” itâ ™s got depth and great warmth. Itâ ™s a beautiful piece of work. KEVIN BARRYI hadnâ ™t opened the towel that contained her gum since 2013. The last person to touch it was Nina Simone, her saliva and fingerprints unsullied. The idea that it was still in her towel was something I had drawn strength from. I thought each time I opened it some of Nina Simoneâ ™s spirit would vanish. In many ways that thought was more important than the gum itself.On Thursday 1 July, 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave s Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage, took Dr Simone s piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, a conduit that would eventually take Ellis back to his childhood and his relationship with found objects, growing in significance with every passing year.Nina Simoneâ ™s Gum is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love. This is such a beautiful f*@king book. Thank you, Warren. I highly recommend this motherf*@ker. FLEA A beautifully written book about the power of music and objects. I powered through it in two days.

Velkou část věnuje vzpomínkám na atmosféru na univerzitě v 60. a 70. letech a na okolnosti, průběh a důsledky svého světoznámého Stanfordského experimentu. Dále se ale věnuje i následujícím projektům (zkoumání stydlivosti), svému angažmá ve zkoumání vězeňských systémů, aféře kolem věznice Abú Ghrajb, své přednáškové činnosti po celém světě. Kniha přináší nejen unikátní, živě líčené, a přitom obsahově nabité paměti výrazné osobnosti světové psychologie, ale podává i široký vhled do dějin celého oboru ve 20 století. Philip Zimbardo patří k nejznámějším současným psychologům na světě. Proslavil se mj. svou knihou Luciferův efekt. Portál chystá k vydání jeho knihu Nesmělost.Daniel Hartwig je historik, filozof a archivář Stanfordovy univerzity.

Znáte odpověď, ale neodpovíte, tančíte rádi, ale nejdete si zatančit… Ať už je za tím strach z výsměchu nebo hlubší pochyby o sobě, nesmělost či stydlivost je jako krunýř, který člověku brání ve svobodném pohybu. A je mnohem častější, než by se na první pohled mohlo zdát. V návaznosti na vězeňskou studii Philip Zimbardo zkoumal do hloubky téma nesmělosti a sám říká, že je to pro něj „nejdůležitější věc, jakou kdy udělal.“ Díky autorovým poznatkům z výzkumu i jeho praktickým doporučením se může čtenář naučit vlastní nesmělost poznat, pochopit a překonat. Philip G. Zimbardo je americký sociální psycholog, autor známého „vězeňského experimentu“. V Portále vyšel rozhovor s ním pod názvem Philip Zimbardo: Paměti psychologa

How one visionary inspired 200 years of art, poetry, and protestâ ¦Weaving between the historical, cultural and personal, award-winning author Philip Hoare reveals a web of creative minds and artistic iconoclasts fired with the wild and revolutionary genius of William Blake.â ˜A life-changing bookâ ™ The Times, Book of the Weekâ ˜A poetic fever dreamâ ™Telegraphâ ˜Queer in all senses of the wordâ ™ Neil Tennantâ ˜Undoubtedly Hoareâ ™s masterpieceâ ™ Olivia LaingIn 1973, Derek Jarman set off from London to film the stones of Avebury. He was following in the footsteps of Paul Nash, who had photographed the ancient megaliths a generation before. Standing in that muddy field, by those stones, both artists had felt a direct connection to their hero â “ a man who had died a long, long time ago, yet who remained electrically alive to them.In this alluring and poetic odyssey, Philip Hoare traces the enduring legacy of William Blake and how he came to inspire so many creative lives. Reaching out of his past and into our future, Blake draws together the natural world and metaphysical realms, merging the human and the animal and the spiritual, firing up twentieth-century artists, filmmakers, poets, writers and musicians with his radical promise of absolute freedom. This stirring, deeply felt book brings us back to Blake and shows that art still has the power to create positive change.â ˜A book that is neither Blake biography nor critical analysis nor legacy-tracing nor personal odyssey but a capacious mixing of them all â ¦ a joyful and dizzying romp through the stories of those who came under Blakeâ ™s posthumous spellâ ™ Philip Marsden,Spectator â ˜Beneath the leaps and returns, the book is skilfully structured, following Blakeâ ™s life and art, and rendering all the inset lives complete, however discontinuous they appear â ¦ One can foresee a rush of books in the run-up to 2027, the bicentenary of Blakeâ ™s death, but nothing will be as audacious or intriguing as William Blake and the Sea Monsters of Loveâ ™ Jenny Uglow, TLS
