Uncanny X-Men By Gail Simone Vol. 3 - Gail Simone

Beloved author Gail Simone continues her exciting run on Uncanny X-Men, with classic members like Rogue, Gambit, Nightcrawler, and Wolverine teaching a new group of mutants known as the Outliers how to fight the good fight! When a brilliant but exploitative Hollywood director makes a surprise-hit horror film featuring a serial-killing mutant girl, there are protests at theaters around the country and a rise in anti-mutant violence in those same communities. But is it just a movie, or is something much more insidious going on? Things are looking up when, for the first time in New Orleans history, the city declares a Mutant Appreciation Day festival and street fair, with all the music, food and fun the city is famous for. If the Hellfire Gala is filet mignon, this is corn dogs and lemonade. But are all mutants okay with this attempt at bridging the gap, or are sinister forces lurking behind the Tilt-A-Whirl? Collecting: Uncanny X-Men (2024) 17-21

Red Sky at Noon - Simon Sebag Montefiore

⠘An epic adventure story set against the most awful war in history. Ridiculously good⠙ Dan Snow The black earth was already baking and the sun was just rising when they mounted their horses and rode across the grasslands towards the horizon on fire ⠦⠙Imprisoned in the Gulags for a crime he did not commit, Benya Golden joins a penal battalion made up of Cossacks and convicts to fight the Nazis. He enrols in the Russian cavalry, and on a hot summer day in July 1942, he and his band of brothers are sent on a desperate mission behind enemy lines.Switching between Benya s war in the grasslands of Southern Russia, and Stalin s plans in the Kremlin, between Benya s intense affair with an Italian nurse and a romance between Stalin s daughter and a journalist also on the Eastern Front, this is a sweeping story of passion, bravery and human survival where personal betrayal is a constant companion, and death just a heartbeat away.Praise for Red Sky at Noon Red Sky at Noon is an epic adventure story set against the backdrop of the most awful war in human history. The master historian shape-shifting into the brilliant novelist. Ridiculously good⠙. Dan Snow Mythic and murderous violence in Russia⠦there are power-drunk Nazis and Soviet traitors, including a particularly memorable villain ⠦Written with brio deep knowledge of its fascinating subject matter⠦ a deeply satisfying pageturner. - Book of the Month, The Times In this third volume of The Moscow Trilogy, the fate of combatants and civilians is often harsh. With his feel for vivid and immediate drama and impressive research, the author evokes the extreme turbulence and violence impacting on individuals. Writing with passion, Montefiore makes the point that, up against the huge forces of war, the struggle for personal resolution can be tragic - but never wasted. - Daily Mail The final instalment of Montefiore s loosely connected Moscow Trilogy: amidst the killing and the chaos, a group of prisoners are offered a chance of redemption on a secret mission behind enemy lines on horseback. Montefiore has a keen sense of place and an eye of unexpected details. Switching between the frontline on the Russian steppes and Stalin in the Kremlin, this is an EXCITING FAST-PACED ADVENTURE AND A LAMENT FOR LOVE IN DARK AND BRUTAL TIMES. - Mail on Sunday I devoured Red Sky at Noon. A heartstopping, heartbreaking, technicolour epic. A grand homage to the Russian masters Babel Grossman, echoes of Hemingway Dostoevsky, and a propulsive delight that is entirely Montefiore s own. Gripping storytelling allied with intimate, unsqueamish knowledge of Russian history - a special combination. - AD Miller, author of Snowdrops The gripping final instalment of the Moscow Trilogy tells of a man wrongly imprisoned in the Gulags and his fight for redemption. Love in dark times, meticulously researched... In this searing tale of love and war, most moving is the redemptive relationship between a soldier and a nurse that blooms amid the brutality. An homage to the author s favourite Russian writers and the Western masterpieces of Larry McMurtry, Cormac McCarthy and Elmore Leonard, such influences pervade this atmospheric tale told in the author s distinct own voice. - Observer

Between the Chalk and the Sea - Gail Simmons

I loved this memoir - Raynor Winn, author of The Salt Path A whole new way of looking at a familiar landscape - Neil Ansell, author of The Last Wilderness Simmons observes the natural world with precision and affection - Times Literary SupplementAn old map. A lost pilgrimage route. A journey in search of our walking heritage.On an antique map in Oxford s Bodleian Library, a faint red line threading through towns and villages between Southampton and Canterbury suggests a significant, though long-forgotten, road. Renamed the Old Way, medieval pilgrims are thought to have travelled this route to reach the celebrated shrine of Thomas Becket.Over four seasons, travel writer Gail Simmons walks the Old Way, winding 240 miles between the chalk hills and shifting seascapes of the south coast, to rediscover what a long journey on foot offers us today. What it means to embrace slow travel in the age of the car? Why does being a woman walking alone still feel like a radical act? Can we now reclaim pilgrimage as a secular act?Blending history, anthropology, etymology and geology, Gail s walk reveals the rich natural and cultural heritage found on our own doorstep.

*** This powerful, speaking-truth-to-power book is an essential read for everybody who wants to stop feeling clueless and helpless about the impacts of cosumerism, and start doing their part to help create a more sustainable world - Layla Saad A critique on what we buy, how it s made and the systems behind it that make an unfair and broken cycle - New York Times The book is a blueprint for anyone who wants to do better - VOGUE SUCH integrity. Aja is no bullsh*t. - Florence Given Consumed takes us through the hideously complex topic of fashion and sustainability, from its knotty colonial roots to what everyday people can do to uproot those systems, today. - Yassmin Abdel-Magied An absolute must-read - Marie Clare Aja Barber wants change. In the learning first half of the book, she will expose you to the endemic injustices in our consumer industries and the uncomfortable history of the textile industry; one which brokered slavery, racism and today s wealth inequality. And how these oppressive systems have bled into the fashion industry and its lack of diversity and equality. She will also reveal how we spend our money and whose pockets it goes into and whose it doesn t (clue: the people who do the actual work) and will tell her story of how she came to learn the truth.In the second unlearning half of the book, she will help you to understand the uncomfortable truth behind why you consume the way you do. She asks you to confront the sense of lack you have, the feeling that you are never quite enough and the reasons why you fill the aching void with consumption rather than compassion. And she makes you challenge this power disparity, and take back ownership of it. The less you buy into the consumer culture the more power you have.CONSUMED will teach you how to be a citizen not a consumer. An absolute must-read - Red Magazine An absolute must-read for any person who wears clothes. - Orsola de Castro A hugely compelling exploration of a culture of exploitation and how, together, we can end it. - Gina Martin Barber s isn t just a voice we should listen to - it is a voice we MUST listen to. - Clementine Ford If you buy one book about sustainable fashion, make it this one. Consumed is an urgent call to action to demand a fashion system that is actually fair for both people and planet, not just Big Fashion billionaires. I adore Aja and I love this brilliant book. - Venetia La Manna

Consumed - Arifa Akbar

* SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA BIOGRAPHY AWARD 2021 * If her moving, engrossing, elegantly written memoir does not win prizes, there really is no justice in the literary world. Lucy Atkins, Sunday TimesAll happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.When Arifa Akbar discovered that her sister had fallen seriously ill, she assumed there would be a brief spell in hospital and then she d be home. This was not to be. It was not until the day before she died that the family discovered she was suffering from tuberculosis. Consumed is a story of sisterhood, grief, the redemptive power of art and the strange mythologies that surround tuberculosis. It takes us from Keats s deathbed and the tubercular women of opera to the resurgence of TB in modern Britain today. Arifa travels to Rome to haunt the places Keats and her sister had explored, to her grandparent s house in Pakistan, to her sister s bedside at the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead and back to a London of the seventies when her family first arrived, poor, homeless and hungry. Consumed is an eloquent and moving excavation of a family s secrets and a sister s detective story to understand her sibling.

Sheila Levinová zemřela a žije v New Yorku - Parentová Gail

Román americké spisovatelky Gail Parentové, který poprvé vyšel roku 1972, je kultovní knihou už pro třetí generaci čtenářek. V mnoha zemích světa se stal bestsellerem, posloužil jako předloha několika divadelních adaptací a byl i zfilmován. Jeho hlavní hrdinka Sheila Levinová je předobrazem Bridget Jonesové - vtipně, sebeironicky a trefně mluví z duše všem nezadaným třicátnicím , které provází smůla na chlapy. Je přelom 60. a 70. let minulého století a New Yorkem zmítá sexuální revoluce. Sheily Levinové se to ale netýká. Brzy jí bude třicet a nemůže sehnat muže, který by ji chtěl. Ne do postele na jednu noc, ale na celý život. Všechny její kamarádky jsou zadané, ale baculaté a neatraktivní Sheile se štěstí vyhýbá. Rozhodne se spáchat sebevraždu a píše dlouhý dopis na rozloučenou, v němž si vyřizuje účty s celým světem. S rodiči, kteří jí odmalička vštěpovali, že pokud se holka nevdá do pětadvaceti, je odepsaná. Se spolužačkami z univerzity, které byly chytřejší, štíhlejší a úspěšnější. S muži, na něž měla spadeno, ale z nichž se nakonec vyklubali ženáči, neschopní seladoni, podvodníci nebo homosexuálové. Sheile nezbývá než koupit si parcelu na hřbitově, objednat pomník se svým jménem a připravit pohřební řeč, která bude pronesena nad její rakví. Začíná slovy: Sheila Levinová se zabila, protože na tomhle světě se pro ni nenašel jediný muž, s nímž by mohla žít. Nebylo jí cítit z pusy. Používala vaginální sprej. Zkoušela to deset let. Ale nedokázala to. Nikdo ji nechtěl navždy. Sheila Levinová zemřela za vaše hříchy...

Designing Inclusive Public Toilets - Gail Ramster, Jo-Anne Bichard

It has never been more important for inclusive design research to inform society. Based on 20 years of research and incorporating perspectives from over 500 participants, this book provides a critical overview of public toilet design in the UK and presents an urgent need to re-evaluate the accessibility of, and culture around, these essential spaces. Public toilets are a vital element of public health infrastructure and an area of the built environment that everyone would use, if they could. Drawing from a rich body of research into toilet design, public services, accessibility and social injustice, Jo-Anne Bichard and Gail Ramster explore the complexities around using these facilities and examine a diverse array of design considerations related to age, disability, neurodiversity and gender. The authors look at the development of toilet design in the UK, discussing examples of successful and failed designs, and present an innovative approach for the future that reframes a space associated with unpleasantness and inaccessibility as one that is essential and respected. This rigorous study takes into consideration the bodyâ ™s needs and decision making on leaving home, issues of navigating, locating and entering facilities, and issues related to cubicles, fixtures, products and hygiene. The authors present an inclusive design approach that can help designers, planners and managers create these spaces more effectively and understand what every prospective user might need, with a sense of safety, comfort and dignity.

These amateur girls emerged as England #39;s first women #39;s football team at the 1971 World Cup in Mexico, only to face scorn once returned home. They were mocked by the press and their achievements were undermined. Players were banned for three months to two years if they tried to play with another team. The heroes had been punished. But the time has come to tell their truth. Narrated by the daughter of one of the team members, Janice Barton, with unprecedented access to the secrets and insights of the first ever woman #39;s team, this is a multi-generational story celebrating the power of a group of women who refused to accept the status quo - revealing how the events of 1971 shaped mother and daughter #39;s lives both personally and professionally. 50 years later, Gail, her mother, and the rest of the team are ready to tell their story and share the legacy of the lost lionesses.

When We Were Magic - Sarah Gailey

“Profoundly thoughtful…An intimate portrait of female friendship laced with literal and metaphorical magic.” —Kirkus Reviews “A laugh-out-loud, exciting ride…a darkly comedic coming-of-age story.” —School Library Journal A moving, darkly funny novel about six teens whose magic goes wildly awry from Magic for Liars author Sarah Gailey, who Chuck Wendig calls an “author to watch.”Keeping your magic a secret is hard. Being in love with your best friend is harder. Alexis has always been able to rely on two things: her best friends, and the magic powers they all share. Their secret is what brought them together, and their love for each other is unshakeable—even when that love is complicated. Complicated by problems like jealousy, or insecurity, or lust. Or love. That unshakeable, complicated love is one of the only things that doesn’t change on prom night. When accidental magic goes sideways and a boy winds up dead, Alexis and her friends come together to try to right a terrible wrong. Their first attempt fails—and their second attempt fails even harder. Left with the remains of their failed spells and more consequences than anyone could have predicted, each of them must find a way to live with their part of the story.

Pornland - Gail Dines

Astonishingly, the average age of first viewing porn is now 11.5 years for boys, and with the advent of the Internet, it’s no surprise that young people are consuming more porn than ever. And, as Gail Dines shows, today’s porn is strikingly different from yesterday’s Playboy. As porn culture has become absorbed into pop culture, a new wave of entrepreneurs are creating porn that is even more hard-core, violent, sexist, and racist. Proving that porn desensitizes and actually limits our sexual freedom, Dines argues its omnipresence is a public health concern we can no longer ignore.

The Typography Idea Book - Steven Heller, Gail Anderson

This book is a short read, perfectly pitched at those looking to take their first step into the world of typography CreativeBloq Geared towards helping you evolve different typographic styles, the book […] is packed with practical techniques and iconic examples – Creative BoomPlaying with typographic puzzle pieces is one of the joys of graphic design and typographers have many entertaining, esoteric, and eccentric options at their disposal. The Typography Idea Book presents 50 of the most inspiring approaches used by masters of the field from across the world, visible in all areas of popular culture. Beautifully illustrated, this book presents images from leading designers who use fonts, lettering, illustrations and digital media in all fields of the visual arts, including web design, logo design and branding.Geared towards helping you evolve different typographic styles, The Typography Idea Book contains none of the technical jargon or tired old rules found in traditional tutorials but is packed with practical techniques and iconic examples. From type transformation to abstraction, via overlapping, hand–lettering, vectorizing, novelty typefaces, and puns, discover all the brilliant ideas you could be bringing to your own designs.From the introduction: Not every designer is a good, much less a great, typographer. Actually, to be a great typographer you have to be a highly skilled graphic designer in the first place. Typography is, arguably, the most important component of graphic design. It requires a distinct ability to make readable messages while expressing, emoting and projecting concepts to audiences, large and small.Typography can be copied and, therefore, it can be taught. Like the classical painting student learning to perfect the rendering of human form by repeatedly drawing from the same plaster cast, the best way to learn typography is to do it over and over again. Theory is fine, but practice is necessary in order to develop a visceral feeling about the way letters sit on a page or screen. You must know if they are in harmony, or unsuited to marriage. Playing with typographic puzzle pieces is one of the joys of typography. While the end result must be understandable – though please note that doesn t necessarily mean legible, for illegibility is relative and what is illegible can often be deciphered – the process can be intuitive. What you see is more than what you get: playing with type is an opportunity to create typographic personalities both for yourself and for your clients.This book is geared towards helping you evolve different typographic characters or styles, or perhaps even your specific design signature. What this book is not is a tutorial in typographic basics – kerning, spacing, selecting, and so on. There are many excellent existing volumes that will give you that essential knowledge. Our intention here is to lay out many of the fun, esoteric and eccentric options a typographer has at his or her disposal. These commonly uncommon approaches include type transformation and mutation, as well as puns and metaphors, and typographic pastiche and quotation.In other words if typographic basics are the main course in your typographic feeding frenzy, the ideas herein are the dessert. It s time to indulge yourself in what is offered on the menu of typographic confections. – Steven Heller and Gail Anderson

The Songs That Saved Us - Simon McDermott

An unforgettable tribute to the unbreakable bond between a father and sonWhen Simon McDermott first noticed his dad Ted⠙s sudden flares of temper and fits of forgetfulness, he couldn⠙t have guessed what lay ahead. Then came the devastating, inevitable diagnosis of Alzheimer⠙s. The dad Simon knew seemed to be drifting further away, and he had no idea how to reach him.Then, one day in the car, Simon hit play on Ted⠙s favourite song. And just like that, they were simply two mates driving around Blackburn, singing at the top of their lungs. That moment would change the course of their lives forever.Simon filmed their adventure, uploaded the video to YouTube and woke up to messages, tweets and his phone ringing off the hook. Their carpool karaoke had gone viral all the way across the globe.But a record deal, Pride of Britain Awards, over £130,000 raised for The Alzheimer⠙s Society and a Top 10 single later, Simon was still losing Ted. That⠙s when he made a decision. His Dad ⠓ the storyteller of his childhood and his best friend ⠓ couldn⠙t tell his own story, so Simon would tell it for him. This is that story.Full of poignant moments, the ups and downs of family life and treasured memories, The Songaminute Man is a story of two halves: a celebration of the man Ted was, and a powerful and moving account of caring for a loved one.

AS FEATURED ON BBC2 S BETWEEN THE COVERS THE TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLERA GUARDIAN, TELEGRAPH, THE TIMES, IRISH TIMES, ROUGH TRADE, MOJO, CLASH, ROLLING STONE, UNCUT BOOK OF THE YEARFrom award-winning musician and composer Warren Ellis comes the unexpected and inspiring story of a piece of chewing gum. 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. COURTNEY BARNETT A moving, inspiration insight into a beautiful mind. JIM JARMUSCH The year s most eccentric and joyful musical memoir. DAILY TELEGRAPH (Books of the year) [Nina Simone s Gum] is a metaphor for [Ellis ] creativity â ” the blossoming of a small idea into something bigger and bolder â ” but also a journey inside the impulsive, improvisatory mind of Warren Ellis, his passions, obsessions and superstitions. OBSERVER [A] beautiful, strikingly idiosyncratic book â ” part memoir, part essay, part conceptual art project, all testament to humans at their strangest and best . . . [Ellis] sees signifiance where others might not. MOJO A glorious piece of object fetishism . . . Marvel as Ellis collection of eccentric personal mementos morphs into a celebration of the intangible wonder of music. UNCUT Wonderful. THE TIMES The most peculiar book I ve ever read. CRAIG BROWN, MAIL ON SUNDAY Delightful . . . A joy from start to finish. BIG ISSUE A joyous work full of love, connection, creativity and gratitude. THE SPECTATOR Completely charming and joyful . . . glorious. LA REVIEW OF BOOKS Beautiful . . . remarkable. NEW EUROPEAN
