Taking the Risk - Hilary Bradt

Taking the Risk is Hilary Bradt''s engaging, insightful, amusing and sometimes alarming memoir about serendipitous adventures in travel and publishing. A travel industry trailblazer who co-founded Bradt Guides, Hilary looks back on 50 years of escapades, surprises, mishaps, disasters. and success. From her first solo trip aged three (on a British beach), she revisits six decades of hitch-hiking, feeding the travel habit by working abroad, and starting a successful travel-publishing company where knowing nothing proved a surprising asset. Barely into her twenties, Hilary Bradt thumbed lifts around the Middle East for three months before spending four years working and travelling in the US. Between 1973 and 1976 Hilary explored, and worked in, South America and Africa with her then husband George, often journeying through literally uncharted territory in their quest for new hiking routes. The discovery of an ancient trail to Machu Picchu unexpectedly inspired their first guidebook. From 1977 the pair wrote several backpacking guides, and set up Bradt Guides. This was just as well, because Hilary''s career in occupational therapy ended when potential employers noticed that time taken off for travel exceeded periods of employment. During the 1980s, Bradt Guides grew and became successful - but that didn''t ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Temporary - Rachel Cusk

''The Temporary would be worth reading for its self-regarding, utterly thoughtless heroine alone.'' Financial Times''An exquisitely written gem.'' Vogue''The wit, dialogue and the uncomfortable perception brought to bear on human relations make The Temporary such a fine achievement.'' SpectatorRalph Loman works in an unsatisfying job, for a free London newspaper, when Francine Snaith, a temporary secretary for a corporate finance firm, unexpectedly crosses his path at a party. Her beauty ignites a blaze of excitement in his troubled heart. But Francine is ravenous for attention, driven by a thirst for conquest, and when Ralph tries politely to extricate himself, he finds he is bound by chains of consequence from which it seems there is no escape. The Temporary paints a merciless portrait of the cut and thrust of modern romance, work and life.

The Work We Need - Hilary Cottam

''Highly recommend - practical and full of human wisdom'' FINANCIAL TIMES''Brimming with ideas to transform the future'' KATE RAWORTH, author of DOUGHNUT ECONOMICS''An act of radical hope, radical listening and radical humility . . . I loved it'' RORY STEWARTWork, for decades, has been debated and discussed as a narrow economic category. Instead, Hilary Cottam identifies work as a cultural force at the heart of good lives, strong communities and a sense of a shared national destiny. Crucially, in these dramatic times, she shows how we can shape this force to meet technological change, our ecological crisis and the challenges of the world''s deep injustices. We can create a work revolution. Ambitious but rooted in the ideas of everyday experts - real workers from all walks of life - this is a realistic and hopeful book. Hilary Cottam has crossed the UK and the USA; she''s spent time in communities considered by outsiders as ''left behind'' and in places at the centre of financial and technological power. Drawing on a fascinating range of sources - historians, trade unionists, business leaders, philosophers and most originally, hours of her imaginative workshops with workers - Hilary Cottam boldly asks: how can we redesign ...

Temporary Tecture

Temporary structures, such as scaffolding, barriers, and building sites, ensure the functioning of multiple processes, from construction and deconstruction to maintenance, guidance, and protection. Temporary Tecture presents a new perspective on this type of contemporary vernacular architecture—often overlooked in both public and professional discourse, despite its omnipresence. This new approach reveals that these “structures of necessity” provide an architectural language from which architects can learn in terms of adaptability, use of local resources, circular economy, and conceptual radicalism. Ultimately, it raises the question: How permanent should architectural solutions be in a continuously changing world? With contributions by Charlotte Malterre-Barthes, Jan De Vylder and Philip Ursprung Numerous photographs of global, temporary structures

Inside Stories - Hilary Robertson

In Inside Stories, Hilary Robertson reveals a multitude of ways to curate and arrange those objects and possessions that make up the stuff of life, from treasured artworks and decorative accessories to everyday objects such as hats, baskets and bicycles.In the first chapter, How to Arrange your Stuff, Hilary considers four different approaches to creating arrangements – intuitive, narrative, practical and curatorial—and shows how each one can be achieved. She considers the variety of display locations available within the home—walls, mantelpieces, windowsills, chests of drawers, tabletops—and suggests how to make the most of them with decorative vignettes. Next, in Stories Told by Real Homes, Hilary casts her stylist’s eye over interiors that fall into five different styles—Neatnik, Bohemian, Naturalist, Sculpture Vulture, and Noble Salvage. As she reveals, some people are magpies—they love stuff; finding, collecting, and displaying it—while their opposite, the minimalists, are on a mission to contain or tame it. The ideas in this book will appeal to magpies, minimalists, and everyone in between.

Vlastimil Třešňák, Temporary Quintet - Kiks (CD)

CD Album Vlastimil Třešňák, Temporary Quintet - Kiks (2022). Téměř deset let museli fanouškové Vlastimila Třešňáka čekat na nové písně - poslední jeho deska Alter ego vyšla v roce 2013. Kolekce třinácti nových skladeb, nazvaná neotřele a krátce Kiks, vznikla letos na jaře a každá z těchto písní je tradičně malé třešňákovské monodrama, někdy ironicky kousavé, jindy zahalené do surrealistické mlhy plné kódů k dešifrování. Pozorný posluchač objeví i jistou symboliku v návaznosti písní od prvního Kiksu až po povzdech nad chybějícím Václavem Havlem. Hudební podoba písní vznikala od začátku ve spolupráci autora s Josefem Štěpánkem a Janem Steinsdörferem, které v Temporary Quintetu doplnili basista Martin Lehký, bubeník Miloš Dvořáček a saxofonista Jan Štolba.

Předveďte mrtvé - Hilary Mantelová

V roce 1535 nechal kovářův syn Thomas Cromwell svoje skromné počátky dávno za sebou. Je prvním ministrem krále Jindřicha VIII., jeho vliv a majetek narůstaly s tím, jak stoupala hvězda Anny Boleynové, Jindřichovy druhé manželky. Kvůli ní se Jindřich rozešel s Římem a založil vlastní církev; země se však díky tomu dostala do nebezpečné izolace a Anna nedokázala splnit, co slibovala: porodit syna, který by byl pokračováním tudorovské linie.Při letní návštěvě Wolf Hall, domu rodiny Seymourových, Cromwell sleduje, jak král propadá lásce k tiché, obyčejné Janě. Ministr chápe, co všechno je v sázce - nejde jen o královo potěšení, ale také o bezpečnost země.

The Joy of Snacking - Hilary Fitzgerald Campbell

New Yorker cartoonist and author of Murder Book Hilary Fitzgerald Campbell returns with a riotous and radically candid comic memoir about snacks, connection, and developing a taste for freedom.From standup comedian, New Yorker cartoonist, and the author of Murder Book comes this fresh comics memoir about being a snacker in a world of foodies. With equal parts humor and unflinching honesty, Hilary traces her life story through food: from her childhood as the ultimate picky eater, her teenage and young adult years of disordered eating, and finally learning to love herself again. Punctuated throughout with ridiculous (but very real! and important!) snack recipes like "a baggie of goldfish" and "burnt toast," Campbell captures the reality of growing up in a woman's body in the '90s and '00s in how it shaped her life in work, friendship, and dating. Especially dating. Aren't we all seeking love, self-acceptance, and a good snack to get you through it? These hilarious stories of family, romance, and belonging prove that if food can isolate us, it also has the power to connect us to what matters most.

Loss of Memory Is Only Temporary - Johanna Kaplan

A funny, fresh, and brilliantly insightful collection of stories from a beloved writer, with a new introduction by Francine ProseJohanna Kaplan’s beautifully written stories first burst on the literary scene in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Today they have retained all of their depth, surprise, and humor—their simultaneously scathing, hilarious, and compassionate insight into character and behavior. From Miriam, home from school with the measles, to Louise, the daughter of a family that fled Vienna for the Dominican Republic, to Naomi, a young psychiatrist, her heroines are fierce, tender, funny, and cuttingly smart.At once specific to a particular period, place, and milieu—mainly, Jewish New York in the decades after World War II—Kaplan’s stories resonate with universal significance. In this new collection, which includes both early and later stories, unforgettably vivid characters are captured in all of their forceful presence and singularity, their foolishness and their wisdom, their venality and their nobility, while, hovering in the background, the inexorable passage of time and the unending pull of memory render silent judgment.In its pitch-perfect command of dialogue matched with interwoven subtleties of insight and feeling and a masterful control of language, Loss of Memory Is Only Temporary is itself a timeless ...

Temporary People - Deepak Unnikrishnan

"Guest workers of the United Arab Emirates embody multiple worlds and identities and long for home in a fantastical debut work of fiction, winner of the inaugural Restless Books Prize for New Immigrant Writing.… An enchanting, unparalleled anthem of displacement and repatriation." —Kirkus ReviewsIn the United Arab Emirates, foreign nationals constitute over 80 percent of the population. Brought in to construct the towering monuments to wealth that punctuate the skylines of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, this labor force works without the rights of citizenship, endures miserable living conditions, and is ultimately forced to leave the country. Until now, the humanitarian crisis of the so-called “guest workers” of the Gulf has barely been addressed in fiction. With his stunning, mind-altering debut novel Temporary People, Deepak Unnikrishnan delves into their histories, myths, struggles, and triumphs. Combining the irrepressible linguistic invention of Salman Rushdie and the satirical vision of George Saunders, Unnikrishnan presents twenty-eight linked stories that careen from construction workers who shapeshift into luggage and escape a labor camp, to a woman who stitches back together the bodies of those who’ve fallen from buildings in progress, to a man who grows ideal workers designed to live twelve years and then perish—until they ...

Temporary Stages III - Jo Beth Gonzalez

Theatre activities ask adolescents to empathize with those who are different from themselves. Recognizing divergence invites self-reflection and kindles compassion. These actions tap students’ inner cores while at the same time deepening their understanding of privilege, a key component of critical consciousness. Through the lens of critical pedagogy and feminist theory, this book explores the mutually reinforcing development of spirituality and emerging critical consciousness fostered by high school theatre experience. By examining her own public high school theatre program through description, analysis and interpretation, Gonzalez explores why and how theatre work can simultaneously fortify teens’ spiritual growth while activating dawning awareness of the socio-political dynamics in their own lives and the world around them. The book includes the original one-act play Free to Fly, which introduces young people to the dangers of sex trafficking of minors. Temporary Stages III will appeal especially to secondary theatre teachers, theatre education pre-service teachers, and graduate students studying theatre pedagogy and critical cultural theory.

Mantelová se za znevážení britské ikony dočkala nevybíravých útoků, jenomže kritici jako by nebrali na vědomí, že v povídce se sice objevuje Margaret Thatcherová a míří se na ni puškou, ale že Mantelové jde o něco jiného - popsat křehkou vazbu mezi nesourodými hrdiny povídky. Křehké pouto mezi lidmi, důvěrnost, která se někdy přiblíží k lásce, ale může se snadno rozplynout, je ostatně společným tématem všech povídek tohoto souboru, byť se odehrávají na rozličných místech a mezi rozličnými aktéry. Hilary Mantelová se narodila roku 1952 v Derbyshiru.

Nebo své herce opravdu inspiroval a vybudoval nejlepší činoherní soubor, který tvořil základ činohry Národního divadla ještě v 60. letech minulého století? Příběh jeho života a díla, tvořících výjimečnou jednotu, dovoluje nahlédnout tam, kde se tvoří předpoklady pro to, co pak obecenstvo vidí na jevišti: do složitých vztahů divadelního zákulisí, divadla a kritiky a samozřejmě divadla a doby, která nebyla jednoduchá. Tak předkládaná kniha nabízí i důležitý pohled na kulturní poměry první Československé republiky, která za Hilarova života vznikla a skončila tři roky po jeho smrti.

V románu Zrcadlo a světlo se završuje trilogie pojednávající o osudech Thomase Cromwella, chudého kovářského syna, který se vlastními schopnostmi vypracoval na pravou ruku anglického krále Jindřicha VIII. První dva svazky - Wolf Hall a Předveďte mrtvé - líčí Cromwellův vzestup a okolnosti, za kterých se postupně stal Jindřichovým nepostradatelným rádcem. Zrcadlo a světlo navazuje přesně v okamžiku, kde druhý díl končil: kat si čistí krvavý meč, dvorní dámy ukládají do rakve bezhlavé tělo Anny Boleynové. A Thomas Cromwell vyráží na závěrečný úsek své pouti, přes vrchol politické moci a pád z výsluní královy obliby až k popravčímu špalku.

I have drawn my own picture of the change triangle - both fascinating and useful'' - Cathy RentzenbrinkWe were all taught that our thoughts affect our emotions, but in truth it is largely the other way around: we have to experience our emotions to truly understand our thoughts, and our full selves. This is why we should think not only about cognitive behavioural therapy or medication, but also about our emotions, when addressing psychological suffering. In It''s Not Always Depression, pioneering psychotherapist Hilary Jacobs Hendel reveals the most effective techniques for putting us back in touch with the emotions we too often deny - methods which can be used by anyone, any time, anywhere. Drawing on stories from her own practice, she sheds light on the core emotions (such as joy, sadness and fear), defences (anything we do to avoid feeling) and inhibitory emotions (anxiety, shame and guilt), and how understanding their interaction can help us return to mental well-being.This is the basis of ''accelerated experiential dynamic psychotherapy:'' it ...
