Strange Relations explores this mid-century crisis through the lives and works of four bisexual writers: Tennessee Williams, Carson McCullers, John Cheever, and James Baldwin. In a mesmerising blend of biography and cultural criticism, Ralf Webb examines how these writers challenged the damaging restrictions of contemporary gender and sexuality, and how, through both their art and relationships, they sought a transformative new masculinity - one grounded in fluidity, love and intimacy.

Following his Forward-prize shortlisted Rotten Days in Late Summer, Ralf Webb s breathtaking second poetry collection summons the West Country of his youth, a place where the real and the magical, folklore and modernity, life and death, collideâ ˜Ralf Webb is an ethnographer of the present. He is interested in everyday life in the extremeâ ™ Peter GizziHighway Cottage weaves the story of a strange homecoming. A young poet travels to the heart of the English countryside â “ back to the West Country village where he grew up. Descending into the valley where the small riverside community still resides, he finds himself within a dreamlike landscape, peopled by uncanny figures: drone operators and hunters; half-familiar friends; local historians, and braying councillors trying desperately to oust a community of Travellers. Hovering between reality and folklore, the locale is at once idyllic and in decay; the visitor is both unsettled and soothed by it. Slowly, we start to sense that both villagers and poet might be under threat â “ not just from the future, but from the past. This book-length sequence of poems represents a ground-breaking artistic achievement by acclaimed poet Ralf Webb. Blending the eerie musicality of childrenâ ™s rhymes with echoes of traditional balladry and free verse, the collection swells to an extraordinary chorus. With great clarity and affection, but not a trace of sentimentality, Webb conjures a precise vision of a rural community, surfacing the deep and urgent tensions â “ personal, political, and environmental â “ that run through Britain today. The result is a unique portrait of contemporary country life, enchanting and unnerving in equal measure.

In searching for the light within it, this prodigious debut collection announces the arrival of a major new voice in British poetry.

The James Webb Space Telescope took three decades from conception to launch but the wait has been worth it. The results of the most anticipated telescope of the 21st century have been nothing short of spectacular. The idea for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) was first raised in 1989, well before the enormously successful Hubble Space Telescope was launched. The infrared telescope with a mirror larger than four meters was launched on Christmas Day 2021. In the summer of 2022, NASA released the first scientific images from Webb to the amazement of more than 300,000 viewers who watched the event live, and hundreds of millions around the world who have viewed Webb s images since then.Webb s Cosmos is written in the spirit of Terry Dickinson s enormously popular book Hubble s Universe, which has sold over 100,000 copies. This book contains both the classic Webb images that have already become famous and the latest images from the frontiers of science taken by Webb, some of which appear here for the first time.Author Marcin Sawicki is a professional astronomer who is an active user of Webb s images and data and is the co-author of 20 research papers based on data taken with Webb. He brings a wealth of knowledge and personal experience to the book and explains the science behind the images in accurate but accessible and engaging language.Webb s Cosmos first provides the needed historical and scientific background to understand how the telescope works and what it can do. The book then presents a curated selection of some 200 photographs with descriptive captions that narrate these images of the distant universe. Chapters include:Stars and gas cloudsGalaxies both near and farPlanets and our solar systemExoplanets.

The autobiography of Howard Webb, the man who refereed the World Cup final and is now Chief Refereeing Officer for PGMOL and a television pundit. Webb #39;s first game as a match official came when he was just 18 and his father #39;s verdict was blunt: #39;Useless - he doesn #39;t know his arse from his elbow. #39; It wasn #39;t the last time his performance would come under fire. But Webb progressed through the ranks, and his natural calm authority made a good impression on players and administrators alike, and soon he was being offered the top matches and the toughest fixtures. The policeman went on to take charge of some of the most important games, including the 2009 FA Cup final, the 2010 Champions League final and - the biggest of the lot - the 2010 World Cup final. Now, in this superb and frank memoir, Howard Webb reveals what it is like to be at the heart of the action in modern-day football where every decision can be unpicked by television cameras. He explains how he learned to handle some of the game #39;s superstars. Refereeing is a hard business, but Webb shows just why he enjoyed it so much and provides fascinating insights into how he dealt with the most challenging situations. With his unique perspective, and the characteristic honesty and humour he has displayed as a pundit on BT Sport, Webb has written a book, updated for this edition, that reveals the game - and the man himself - in a new light. #39;Genuinely fascinating insight into the difficulties of officiating in the modern game, and Webb #39;s frankness and self-deprecation are to be commended #39; When Saturday Comes

After several years photographing New York City⠔socializing with Alfred Stieglitz, Georgia O⠙Keeffe, Berenice Abbott and Minor White⠔American photographer Todd Webb moved to Paris in the late 40s and made his first negatives with an 8×10 camera. He quickly found himself having the time of his life⠔mingling with other artists such as Gordon Parks, Man Ray and Brassaï. In his journal, Webb often worried about money and whether he could make it in Paris, but he persevered. Paris: A Love Story 1948-1952 includes never-before-published excerpts from Webb s journal and showcases 70 black and white photographs that Webb shot from 1949 to 1952 as he, in part inspired by the work of Eugène Atget, took to the streets to make a personal, beautiful and lasting record of postwar Paris.

Searingly honest... gripping... fascinating and hugely entertaining. - Sunday Times Moving and frank ... A story of a childhood defined by loneliness, the absence of a father and the grim experience of a Quaker boarding school. It is also one of the most perceptive accounts of Britain in the 1970s. - Misha Glenny A crisp, unself-pitying memoir of a trainwreck youth ... I ve always likes Webb on the radio. But I like him much more after reading this book. He offers precisely the kind of brisk honesty and considered analysis he expects from his interviewees. Our politicians should all read it, and step up their game. -Telegraph............................................................................. ............................................................................ Justin Webb s childhood in the 1970s was far from ordinary. Between his mother s un-diagnosed psychological problems, and his step-father s untreated ones, life at home was dysfunctional at best. But with gun-wielding school masters and sub-standard living conditions, Quaker boarding school wasn t much better. Candid, unsparing and darkly funny, Justin Webb s memoir is as much a portrait of a troubled era as it is the story of a dysfunctional childhood, shaping the urbane and successful radio presenter we know and love now. ............................................................................. ........................................................... I thoroughly enjoyed Justin Webb s bonkers childhood. He captures the middle class of the age with a tenacity only possible in one of its victims. -Jeremy Paxman

To live is to lose, to grieve is to be human. Part elegy, part lament, part love song; Julia Webb s fourth collection Grey Time is a powerful examination of what it is to love and lose, of our relationship with both grief and the dead. Exploring the many facets and nuances of loss, Webb explores what happens before and after the sudden death of a loved one and how our relationship with them changes over time as new secrets are revealed and old hurts heal.This book is not defined by death, however, as these refreshing, evocative poems study and witness the myriad losses of a lifetime. Julia Webb turns her forensic eye on the complexity of unresolved relationships; on what is said or not said, how people behave under duress, how violence can creep into our lives, as well as exploring her own recently discovered neurodivergence. Grey Time is a revelatory collection that takes bold leaps, binding the strange and surreal to the everyday â “ to make possible a place where a one mother turns owl, and another mother will teach her son how to fly.

In the years leading up to the First World War, the United Kingdom was subjected to a ferocious campaign of bombing and arson. Those conducting this terrorist offensive were members of the Women s Social and Political Union; better known as the suffragettes. The targets for their attacks ranged from St Paul s Cathedral and the Bank of England in London to theatres and churches in Ireland. The violence, which included several attempted assassinations, culminated in June 1914 with an explosion in Westminster Abbey. Simon Webb explores the way in which the suffragette bombers have been airbrushed from history, leaving us with a distorted view of the struggle for female suffrage. Not only were the suffragettes far more aggressive than is generally known, but there exists the very real and surprising possibility that their militant activities actually delayed, rather than hastened, the granting of the parliamentary vote to British women. AUTHOR: Simon Webb is the author of many non-fiction books, ranging from academic works on education to popular history. He has also written dozens of westerns under both his own name and a variety of pseudonyms, such as Harriet Cade, Fenton Sadler and Jay Clanton. He works as a consultant on the subject of capital punishment to television companies and filmmakers and also writes fro various magazines and newspapers, including the Times educational Supplement, Daily Telegraph and The Guardian. 16 b/w illustrations

International relations affects everyone s lives: their security, economic well-being, rights and freedoms, and the environment they share. Recently we have seen the transformation from a world of empires to today s world of sovereign states, which are enmeshed in a complex array of international institutions, all exercising degrees of political authority. The new global organization of political authority has far-reaching consequences.This Very Short Introduction untangles this complex world, providing an accessible framework for understanding the contours of global political change. Christian Reus-Smit treats theory as an indispensable tool for grasping international relations, but demystifies theorizing, introducing it as an everyday human practice. He surveys a range of theories, from realism to feminism: reading them as contrasting perspectives on the global organization of political authority. Historically, such organization has been shaped by diverse social forces, four of which are discussed in detail: shifting patterns of warfare, changing economic conditions, struggles for rights, and the politics of culture. Reus-Smit concludes with a reflection on the future of international relations in an era of profound global change.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

This second edition has been updated to include an assessment of economic relations up to the COVID-19 pandemic. It focuses on three main threads that tie national economies together: flows of goods, of people and of finance.Since the end of the Second World War, the international economy transformed from a tightly controlled trading system to the financial globalization of the late 20th century. This book traces the organisation of international economic relations from the 1944 Bretton Woods conference through to the 2008 financial crisis and its aftermath. By outlining the development of economic policy of both national and international institutions like the International Monetary Fund and the European Union, this volume examines how the global system was constructed and explores the sources of inequality and instability. The changing political context is also emphasised, especially the Cold War and its end, the rise of China and other emerging market economies and the prospect of a retreat from globalisation in the wake of the 2008 crisis.Using non-technical language and providing clear examples and evidence, the book is an accessible introduction to international economic relations that will be useful for all students of modern world history since 1945.

This book s power lies in its depiction of civilians trying to lead ordinary lives during the horror of war . . . It is shattering stuff, but Rothmann is tender towards his characters and this book is as memorable as his last. - The Times, Historical Fiction Book of the Month As the Second World War enters its final stages, millions in Germany are forced from their homes by bombing, compelled to seek shelter in the countryside where there are barely the resources to feed them.Twelve-year-old Luisa, her mother, and her older sister Billie have escaped the devastation of the city for the relative safety of a dairy farm. But even here the power struggles of the war play out: the family depend on the goodwill of Luisa s brother-in-law, an SS officer, who in expectation of payment turns his attention away from his wife and towards Billie. Luisa immerses herself in books, but even she notices the Allied bombers flying east above them, the gauntness of the prisoners at the camp nearby, the disappearance of fresh-faced boys from the milk shed - hastily shipped off to a war that s already lost.Living on the farm teaches Luisa about life and death, but it s man s capacity for violence that provides the ultimate lesson, that robs her of her innocent ignorance. When, at a birthday celebration, her worst fears are realized, Luisa collapses under the weight of the inexplicable.Ralf Rothmann s previous novel, To Die in Spring, described the horror of war and the damage done on the battlefield. The God of that Summer tells the devastating story of civilians caught up in the chaos of defeat, of events that might lead a twelve-year-old child to justifiably say: I have experienced everything.

Svým posledním románem Zemřít na jaře postavil Ralf Rothmann pomník nezletilým německým vojákům, které Hitler nuceně naverboval v samotném závěru druhé světové války. Kniha je velkolepým obrazem o zmrzačených životech a traumatech mladinkých vojáků, jedinečným románem o otcích a synech, nadšeně přijatým čtenáři i kritiky. Rothmann text vystavěl na skutečném příběhu svého otce, proto je jeho vyprávění o běsnění a zvráceném násilí v posledních měsících největší válečné apokalypsy v lidských dějinách tak autentické a působivé. Hrdiny románu jsou dva sedmnáctiletí kamarádi, které v únoru 1945 pošlou na frontu. Walter se stane řidičem zásobovací jednotky, Fiete, který bojuje přímo v první linii, dezertuje. Brzy ho však chytí a odsoudí k trestu smrti, a Walter se náhle ocitá v popravčí četě se zbraní namířenou na svého nejlepšího kamaráda... Časopis Der Spiegel o Rothmannově románu napsal: Zemřít na jaře je protiválečný román, který snese srovnání s nejlepšími texty svého žánru, jako je Na západní frontě klid Ericha Marii Remarquea. (...) Nejsilnější pasáže jsou ty, v nichž autor vypráví o otcích a synech, které spojuje tatáž válečná zkušenost v obou světových válkách, které Německo vedlo. (...) A tak jede Walter jako nedobrovolný příslušník jednotek SS surreálnou válečnou krajinou v zásobovacím voze a kolem panuje atmosféra konce lidstva jako v Cestě Cormaca McCarthyho. V řekách plavou mrtvoly, na stromech visí němečtí dezertéři. Zubožení Židé táhnou rozvrácenou zemí v pochodech smrti, wehrmacht ustupuje, nacističtí důstojníci pořádají v opuštěných hotelích orgie. Walter hledá hrob svého otce, který údajně nedávno padl. Prochází hřbitov za hřbitovem a pak musí zase na frontu. Dokud válka konečně neskončí. Vydání knihy podpořil Goethe Institut.

Kiel, nebo co z něho zbylo, hoří skoro každou noc, moje milá. Je totiž válka, pokud ti to ještě nikdo neřekl. Věta z nového románu německého spisovatele Ralfa Rothmanna v mnohém charakterizuje příběh odehrávající se na sklonku druhé světové války. Na jeho počátku hlavní hrdinka, dvanáctiletá Luisa, ještě hledí na svět kolem sebe dětskýma, zasněnýma očima, na jeho konci už jen suše konstatuje: Prožila jsem všechno. V zimních měsících roku 1945 Luisa s matkou a starší sestrou prchá z bombardovaného Kielu na venkov. Statek jejího švagra Vincenta, důstojníka SS, se pro ni stává nečekaným ostrovem svobody: vždyť nemusí chodit do školy. Jenže zatímco se toulá lesem, nad hlavou jí čím dál častěji přelétávají spojenecké bombardéry mířící na východ a do země se valí další uprchlíci. Luisa se snaží pochopit, co se to děje a co se také odehrává v jejím nitru: Proč se jí zmocňuje ten podivně rozechvělý pocit, kdykoli se setká s mladým dojičem Walterem (mimochodem hlavní postavou předchozího Rothmannova románu Zemřít na jaře)? Co jsou zač zajatci v táboře u jezera? Kam zmizela její starší sestra Billie? Od koho získává parukářka vlasy na výrobu paruk? Když se Luise na oslavě švagrových narozenin stane to, čeho se německé ženy a dívky v té době nejvíc obávají, navždy ji to poznamená... S existenciální razancí, a přece s jemným náznakem humoru vypráví Rothmann z perspektivy dvanáctileté dívky o hrůzách posledních válečných měsíců. (Hamburger Abendblatt) Bůh onoho léta je ještě odvážnější román než jeho předchůdce Zemřít na jaře… (Deutschlandfunk) Rothmannovy děsivě plastické protiválečné romány by měly být povinnou četbou. Dobré literární dílo zprostředkuje víc informací a zážitků než mnoho hodin dějepisu. (der Freitag) Poselstvím, že i ve zkáze člověk může prokázat ušlechtilost ducha, je Rothmannův román oslavou humanity. (Die literarische Welt) Ralf Rothmann napsal velkolepý román se suverénní samozřejmostí: ani přehnaně emocionální, ani chladně odtažitý. (SPIEGEL ONLINE) Vydání knihy podpořil Goethe Institut.
