So this is permanence, edited by Jon Savage with a foreword by Deborah Curtis, presents the intensely personal writings of one of the most enigmatic and influential songwriters and performers of the late twentieth century, Joy Division''s Ian Curtis. The songs of Joy Division, infused with the energy of punk but steeped in a resigned longing, were born of Manchester in the late seventies - a once flourishing industrial city in decline. They were the songs too of Ian Curtis''s inner tragedies, as he battled depression, epilepsy and debilitating stage fright. Ian Curtis committed suicide in 1980, on the eve of the band''s first American tour. Interspersed with the lyrics are previously unpublished facsimile pages of Ian''s notebooks, which throw his highly emotive lyrics into fascinating relief and cast light on the creative process of this singularly poetic songwriter.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFor the first time, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson opens up about his amazing comeback—from tragic personal loss to thriving businessman and cable’s highest-paid executive—in this unique self-help guide, his first since his blockbuster New York Times bestseller The 50th Law.In his early twenties Curtis Jackson, known as 50 Cent rose to the heights of fame and power in the cutthroat music business. A decade ago the multi-platinum selling rap artist decided to pivot. His ability to adapt to change was demonstrated when he became the executive producer and star of Power, a high-octane, gripping crime drama centered around a drug kingpin’s family. The series quickly became “appointment” television, leading to Jackson inking a four-year, $150 million contract with the Starz network—the most lucrative deal in premium cable history.Now, in his most personal book, Jackson shakes up the self-help category with his unique, cutting-edge lessons and hard-earned advice on embracing change. Where The 50th Law tells readers “fear nothing and you shall succeed,” Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter builds on this message, combining it with Jackson’s street smarts and hard-learned corporate savvy to help readers successfully achieve their own comeback—and to learn to flow with the changes that disrupt their own lives.

Kdyby se vás někdo zeptal, jaká je vaše sestra, co byste odpověděli? Je hodná, nebo zlá? Úplně jiná než vy? Podobně protikladné jsou i hrdinky románu Sestry od americké autorky Curtis Sittenfeldové. Jedna racionální, druhá iracionální, jedna tuctově konvenční, druhá odvážně volnomyšlenkářská, jedna úzkostlivě opatrná, druhá nezodpovědně ztřeštěná, to jsou sestry Kate a Violet, a přestože jsou to jednovaječná dvojčata, jsou jako den a noc. Kdysi měly něco společného, schopnost předvídat budoucnost, jejich okolí je však za to nemilosrdně odsoudilo k životu na okraji. To jejich cesty na začátku dospělosti rozdělilo. Kate vede běžný život matky dvou malých dětí, ale každou chvíli v něm probleskují temné ozvěny minulosti, zato její sestra Violet věří, že má "vyšší poslání". Po překvapivém, třebaže slabém zemětřesení oznámí Violet médiím, že St. Louis brzo zasáhne ničivé zemětřesení. Její zpráva spustí mediální lavinu a odstartuje řetěz událostí, které vyústí v zemětřesení, jaké nikdo nečekal. Psychologická sonda do vztahu dvou sester, které se pokoušejí každá po svém vyrovnat s traumatickými zážitky z dětství, nepostrádá spád, vtip a ironii, o překvapivé zvraty není nouze. I na konci zůstává mnoho otázek pro čtenáře nezodpovězeno: Mají sestry skutečný dar vidět do budoucnosti, nebo jen výjimečně vyvinutý pozorovací talent a empatii? Je to dar, či prokletí? Máme se spoléhat na racionální úsudek, nebo je lepší věřit šestému smyslu? Kdo ví? Jak tvrdí jedna ze sester, lidé mají tendenci věřit pouze tomu, čemu sami věřit chtějí. Curtis Sittenfeldová je autorkou úspěšných a jedněch z nejprodávanějších románů Sisterland, Prezidentova manželka, Přípravka a Muž mých snů, které byly přeloženy do pětadvaceti jazyků.

In ‘A for Alone,’ a married artist embarks on a project intended to disprove the so-called Mike Pence Rule, which suggests that women and men can’t spend time alone together without lusting after each other. And in ‘Lost but Not Forgotten,’ Sittenfeld gives readers of her novel Prep a new window into the world of her beloved character Lee Fiora, decades later, when Lee attends an awkward school reunion. Witty, confronting and full of tenderness, Sittenfeld peels back layer after layer of our inner lives, keeping us riveted to the page with her utterly distinctive voice.

She has never left.Her best friend, beside her older sister, Giovanna, is a donkey. She ties ribbons around his head and thinks she will marry him when the time comes.The sisters'' days on the island are shaped by ritual, community, superstition and isolation.It is a place that feels stuck in time: verdant, plentiful, peaceful.Until the men arrive.And a foreign yacht anchors at the port.And the vines begin to fail.And everything changes.From the author of Dolores, Strangers at the Port is an exquisite, enchanted, atmospheric novel about myth and memory, suspicion and dislocation, emigrants and explorers.''Lauren Aimee Curtis brings her alchemical knack to a remote island setting, recounting a story through three vantage points. Giulia and Giovanna''s acidic, beguiling accounts of their island''s rituals and lore contrast with a third teller whose logbooks fragment into feverish autobiography. Curtis''s radiant novel explores the ineffable dimensions of a place, of the past, of a person, which is precisely what I come to literature for'' MIREILLE JUCHAU

Curtis Sittenfeld’s debut novel, Prep, is an insightful, achingly funny coming-of-age story as well as a brilliant dissection of class, race, and gender in a hothouse of adolescent angst and ambition.Lee Fiora is an intelligent, observant fourteen-year-old when her father drops her off in front of her dorm at the prestigious Ault School in Massachusetts. She leaves her animated, affectionate family in South Bend, Indiana, at least in part because of the boarding school’s glossy brochure, in which boys in sweaters chat in front of old brick buildings, girls in kilts hold lacrosse sticks on pristinely mown athletic fields, and everyone sings hymns in chapel.As Lee soon learns, Ault is a cloistered world of jaded, attractive teenagers who spend summers on Nantucket and speak in their own clever shorthand. Both intimidated and fascinated by her classmates, Lee becomes a shrewd observer of–and, ultimately, a participant in–their rituals and mores. As a scholarship student, she constantly feels like an outsider and is both drawn to and repelled by other loners. By the time she’s a senior, Lee has created a hard-won place for herself at Ault. But when her behavior takes a self-destructive and highly public turn, her carefully crafted identity within the community is shattered.Ultimately, Lee’s experiences–complicated relationships with teachers; intense friendships with other girls; an all-consuming preoccupation with a classmate who is less than a boyfriend and more than a crush; conflicts with her parents, from whom Lee feels increasingly distant, coalesce into a singular portrait of the painful and thrilling adolescence universal to us all.

Here was where, beneath a bright-red awning and surrounded by his multigenerational family, filmmaker and activist Curtis Chin came of age; where he learned to embrace his identity as a gay ABC, or American-born Chinese; where he navigated the divided city''s spiralling misfortunes; and where-between helpings of almond boneless chicken, sweet-and-sour pork, and some of his own, less-savoury culinary concoctions-he realized just how much he had to offer to the world, to his beloved family, and to himself.Served up by the cofounder of the Asian American Writers'' Workshop and structured around the very menu that graced the tables of Chung''s, Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant is both a memoir and an invitation: to step inside one boy''s childhood oasis, scoot into a vinyl booth, and grow up with him-and perhaps even share something off the secret menu.

This updated edition of Secret Affairs covers the momentous events of the past year in the Middle East and at home in the UK. It reveals the unreported attempts by Britain to cultivate relations with the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt after the fall of Mubarak, the military intervention on the side of Libyan rebel forces which include pro-al-Qaeda elements, and the ongoing reliance on the region''s ultimate fundamentalist state, Saudi Arabia, to safeguard its interest in the Middle East. It illuminates path of Salman Abedi, the bomber who attacked Manchester in May 2017, and his terror network: how he fought in Libya in 2011 as part of a group of fighters which the UK allowed to leave the country to go and battle against Gadafi to topple him. In this ground-breaking book, Mark Curtis reveals the covert history of British collusion with radical Islamic and terrorist groups. Secret Affairs shows how governments since the 1940s have connived with militant forces to control oil resources and overthrow governments. The story of how Britain has helped nurture the rise of global terrorism has never been told.

In Axonas/Axis, Curtis gives voice to the experience of trauma and recovery through the poetic language of imagery rather than graphic detail, attempting to convey the fundamental twist in the narrative - perhaps even a breakage - that needs to be mended through a synthesis of mind, heart and body working towards the integration of the whole. The whole self. Using Ancient Greek words/concepts and mythology as a springboard to launch into her own personal etymology - the origin and intimate meaning of words dear to her - juxtaposed against what we commonly expect from that word. Ultimately, these poems attempt to tread on Holy ground, the territory where symbol is created from suffering and metaphor from the muscle of language, the territory of healing and wholeness.

It shows how civilized life emerged in Iran around 3,200 BC and how a distinctive Iranian identity formed 2,500 years ago has survived until today, expressed in the Persian language and in religious affiliations. Â Lavishly illustrated, some 250 images showcase pieces including goldwork, ceramics, glass, illustrated manuscripts, textiles, carpets, oil paintings, drawings, and photographs. Alongside the historical sweep are examples from contemporary artists and makers, demonstrating the rich antecedents still influencing some modern-day practitioners.
