"A poetic and remarkably fertile exploration of the relationship between human beings and the natural environment."—Pankaj Mishra, The Guardian"I'm very grateful to have this book."—Ursula K. Le GuinThe acclaimed and award-winning book about what a rare mushroom can teach us about sustaining life on a fragile planetA Flavorwire and Times Higher Education Book of the YearMatsutake is the most valuable mushroom in the world—and a weed that grows in human-disturbed forests across the northern hemisphere. Through its ability to nurture trees, matsutake helps forests to grow in daunting places. It is also an edible delicacy in Japan, where it sometimes commands astronomical prices. In all its contradictions, matsutake offers insights into areas far beyond just mushrooms and addresses a crucial question: what manages to live in the ruins we have made? A tale of diversity within our damaged landscapes, The Mushroom at the End of the World follows one of the strangest commodity chains of our times to explore the unexpected corners of capitalism. Here, we witness the varied and peculiar worlds of matsutake commerce: the worlds of Japanese gourmets, capitalist traders, Hmong jungle fighters, industrial forests, Yi Chinese goat herders, Finnish nature guides, and more. These companions also lead us into fungal ecologies and forest histories to better understand the promise of cohabitation in a time of massive human destruction. By investigating one of the world's most sought-after fungi, The Mushroom at the End of the World presents an original examination into the relation between capitalist destruction and collaborative survival within multispecies landscapes, the prerequisite for continuing life on earth.

With an Introduction by David Stuart Davies. 'In the great mirror opposite I saw myself, and right behind, another wicked fearful self, so like me my soul seemed to quiver within me, as though not knowing to which similitude of body it belonged'. Elizabeth Gaskell is better known today for her pioneering social novels such as Mary Barton (1848) but she also wrote some fascinating tales of the supernatural and the macabre, which are collected here in this volume.The real charm of this dark anthology is its variety. Unlike so many writers of this kind of material, Gaskell allows the story to fit the style rather than the other way around and as result there is a charming freshness to each tale. This remarkable author uses different voices, tones and topics to engage her readers and as you turn from one story to the next you cannot be quite sure what to expect.

A landmark study of ancient Greek and Roman cults, from the nocturnal mysteries at Eleusis to the cults of Dionysus and Mithras. Mystery cults are one of the most intriguing areas of Greek and Roman religion. In the nocturnal mysteries at Eleusis, participants dramatically re-enacted the story of Demeter's loss and recovery of her daughter Persephone; in Bacchic cult, bands of women ran wild in the Greek countryside to honour Dionysus; in the mysteries of Mithras, men came to understand the nature of the universe and their place within it through frightening initiation ceremonies and astrological teachings. These cults were an important part of life in the ancient Mediterranean world, but their actual practices were shrouded in secrecy, and much of what they were about has remained unclear until now. This is the first book to describe and explain all the major mystery cults of the ancient world, cult by cult, reconstructing the rituals and exploring their origins. It makes plentiful use of artistic and archaeological evidence, as well as ancient literature and epigraphy. Greek painted pottery, Roman frescoes, inscribed gold tablets from Greek and South Italian tombs and the excavated sites of ancient religious sanctuaries all contribute to our understanding of ancient mystery cults. Making use of the most recent work on these cults, the book is also informed by crucial current work on the anthropology and cognitive science of religion. Not only is this clearly written book a significant contribution to the study of these cults, but it is also accessible to a general readership. More than any other book on ancient religion, it allows the reader to understand what it was like to participate in these life-transforming religious events.

Na tom Danielovi něco je! Říká to skoro každý. Že je sympatický, talentovaný a hezký. A Christian by s tím moc rád nesouhlasil, jenomže… Copak to jde, když jeho kouzlu na první pohled taky propadnul? Služebník a pán (Servant & Lord) je romantická a vtipná manga od německých autorek, která pojednává o lásce mezi dvěma mladými muži – Christianem a Danielem. Jejich příběh se odvíjí od prvního setkání, kde se kvůli věkovému rozdílu mísí především přátelství s obdivem, až po jejich znovushledání po letech. Christian k Danielovi vzhlížel už odmala. Dan mu imponoval nejen svým vystupováním a úspěchy, ale především sdíleným zalíbením v hudbě, které přerostlo v hlubší pouto. Trávili spolu čas a Daniel Christianovi částečně nahrazoval staršího bratra. Jenomže pak v Danově životě došlo k velké tragédii a byl nucen s vděkem přijmout nabídku Christianova otce pracovat pro jejich rodinu – stal se služebníkem a správcem. A byť ten velký dům čítá aspoň dvacet ložnic, pro Dana je o poznání těžší Christiana míjet. Tím spíš, když Christian, jak se zdá, hledá jakoukoli záminku, jen aby mu mohl být nablízku. Jak roky plynou, jeho dětský zájem a obdiv se mění v něco víc. Dokážou vzdorovat vzájemné přitažlivosti? A přijme Daniel fakt, že Christian už dávno není tím malým chlapcem, ale dost tvrdohlavým mladým mužem, který ví moc dobře, co chce? Tahle láska je přímo osudová, provázaná celou řadou odchodů a o to sladších návratů.

eBook: \'The Nottinghill Mystery\' is one of the few detective novels not written from the perspective of a detective. One of its main appeals is that it was written through extracts and court case depositions, and not one long narrative; making the reading feel like they are almost one of the jury delivering their final verdict. Set in the 1840s, insurance broker Ralph Henderson must collect evidence against a local professor who is suspected of a number of murders of women over the years. It was first published as an eight-part serial in a magazine but you will struggle not to read it from start to finish in one sitting.
