THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Galvanizing and uplifting The Guardian Bernie Sanders has changed US politics forever Owen JonesIt s OK to be angry about capitalism. It s OK to want something better. Bernie Sanders takes on the 1% and speaks blunt truths about a system that is fuelled by uncontrolled greed, and rigged against ordinary people.Where a handful of oligarchs have never had it so good, with more money than they could spend in a thousand lifetimes, and the vast majority struggle to survive. Where a decent standard of living for all seems like an impossible dream. How can we accept an economic order that allows three billionaires to control more wealth than the bottom half of our society? How can we accept a political system that allows the super-rich to buy elections and politicians? How can we accept an energy system that rewards the fossil fuel corporations causing the climate crisis? How can we let it happen any longer? We must demand fundamental economic and political change.This is where the path forward begins. It s OK To Be Angry About Capitalism presents a vision of what would be possible if the political revolution took place. If we would finally recognize that economic rights are human rights, and work to create a society that provides them.This isn t some utopian fantasy; this is democracy as we should know it.

Without You, There Is No Us - Suki Kim
It is 2011, and all universities in North Korea have been shut down for an entire year, except for the all-male Pyongyang University of Science and Technology. This is where Suki Kim has accepted a job teaching English. Over the next six months she will eat three meals a day with her young charges and struggle to teach them to write, all under the watchful eye of the regime.Life at the university is lonely and claustrophobic. Her letters are read by censors and she must hide her notes and photographs not only from her minders but also from her colleagues, evangelical Christian missionaries, whose faith she does not share.As the weeks pass she discovers how easily her students lie, and how total is their obedience to Kim Jong-il. She also, bravely, hints at the existence of a world beyond their own: the internet, free travel, democracy, and other ideas forbidden in a country where torture and execution are commonplace. Yet her pupils are also full of boyish enthusiasm, with flashes of curiosity not yet extinguished.Without You, There Is No Us offers a moving and incalculably rare glimpse of life inside the world s most inscrutable country.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A progressive takedown of the uber-capitalist status quo that has enriched millionaires and billionaires at the expense of the working class, and a blueprint for what transformational change would actually look like“A clarion call against the American oligarchs . . . powerful.”—The GuardianIt’s OK to be angry about capitalism. Reflecting on our turbulent times, Senator Bernie Sanders takes on the billionaire class and speaks blunt truths about our country’s failure to address the destructive nature of a system that is fueled by uncontrolled greed and rigidly committed to prioritizing corporate profits over the needs of ordinary Americans.Sanders argues that unfettered capitalism is to blame for an unprecedented level of income and wealth inequality, is undermining our democracy, and is destroying our planet. How can we accept an economic order that allows three billionaires to control more wealth than the bottom half of our society? How can we accept a political system that allows the super rich to buy politicians and swing elections? How can we accept an energy system that rewards the fossil fuel corporations causing the climate crisis? Sanders believes that, in the face of these overwhelming challenges, the American people must ask tough questions about the systems that have failed us and demand fundamental economic and political change. This is where the path forward begins.It’s OK to Be Angry About Capitalism presents a vision that extends beyond the promises of past campaigns to reveal what would be possible if the political revolution took place, if we would finally recognize that economic rights are human rights, and if we would work to create a society that provides a decent standard of living for all. This isn’t some utopian fantasy; this is democracy as we should know it.

The Room Where It Happened - John Bolton
As President Trump’s National Security Advisor, John Bolton spent many of 453 days in the room where it happened, and the facts speak for themselves.The result is a “scathing and revelatory” (The New Yorker) White House memoir that is the most comprehensive and substantial account of the Trump Administration, and one of the few to date by a top-level official. With almost daily access to the President, John Bolton has produced a precise rendering of his days in and around the Oval Office. What Bolton saw astonished him: a President for whom getting reelected was the only thing that mattered, even if it meant endangering or weakening the nation. “I am hard-pressed to identify any significant Trump decision during my tenure that wasn’t driven by reelection calculations,” he writes. In fact, he argues that the House committed impeachment malpractice by keeping its prosecution focused narrowly on Ukraine when Trump’s Ukraine-like transgressions existed across the full range of his foreign policy—and Bolton documents exactly what those were, and attempts by him and others in the Administration to raise alarms about them. He shows a President addicted to chaos, who embraced our enemies and spurned our friends, and was deeply suspicious of his own government. In Bolton’s telling, all this helped put Trump on the bizarre road to impeachment. “The differences between this presidency and previous ones I had served were stunning,” writes Bolton, who worked for Reagan, Bush 41, and Bush 43. He discovered a President who thought foreign policy is like closing a real estate deal—about personal relationships, made-for-TV showmanship, and advancing his own interests. As a result, the US lost an opportunity to confront its deepening threats, and in cases like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea ended up in a more vulnerable place. Bolton’s “first tell-all memoir by such a high-ranking official” (The New York Times) starts with his long march to the West Wing as Trump and others woo him for the National Security job. The minute he lands, he has to deal with Syria’s chemical attack on the city of Douma, and the crises after that never stop. As he writes in the opening pages, “If you don’t like turmoil, uncertainty, and risk—all the while being constantly overwhelmed with information, decisions to be made, and sheer amount of work—and enlivened by international and domestic personality and ego conflicts beyond description, try something else.” The turmoil, conflicts, and egos are all there—from the upheaval in Venezuela, to the erratic and manipulative moves of North Korea’s Kim Jong Un, to the showdowns at the G7 summits, the calculated warmongering by Iran, the crazy plan to bring the Taliban to Camp David, and the placating of an authoritarian China that ultimately exposed the world to its lethal lies. But this seasoned public servant also has a great eye for the Washington inside game, and his story is full of wit and wry humor about how he saw it played.

⠘What an extraordinary, spectacular book! As long as there are women like Mykytenko in the world, human society will be okay. The combination of courage and love in a single person is an ancient story and one that we must hear over and over again to know that it⠙s possible. And Marlowe⠙s prose is so powerful and compelling that I was at a loss as to when to put the book down and do something else for a while. It may well be one of the best and most important books to come out of this brutal war that Russia has inflicted on Ukraine.⠙Sebastian Junger, author of In My Time of Dying ⠘This is an account of the Ukrainian soul. If you want to know who we are and why we fight, if you want to understand the heart of this conflict, from the experience of a woman who has seen more than you will ever know, please read this book. It touched me deeply. I recognized the events and familiar places, but most of all, I recognized Yulia Mykytenko. I knew her father and have followed her destiny withoutthinking that the story of her struggle would be turned into such a powerful book about this strong and wilful female soldier. The roots of Ukrainian defiance are clearly visible in this down-to-earth but moving story.⠙Andrey Kurkov, winner of the Prix Médicis and author of Death and the Penguin⠘This book is an extraordinary act of moral courage. It feels like it was created not so much by a writer, and indeed her subject, as by the absolutely necessary spirit of our times. It is a book that is prepared to reach the depths of despair, and yet somehow to cleave open the darkness too. A song about our broken times, it reveals the human strands that hold us together against the odds.⠙Colum McCann, author of Let the Great World Spin

Fuck It: Be at Peace with Life, Just as It Is - John Parkin
Is there a gap between how youâ ™d like things to be and how they are?Most likely there is, and it hurts. It may be a small gap or an enormous ravine, but that gap is the primary cause of pain and unhappiness for a lot of people.What if you said â ˜F**k Itâ ™ to the idea of how your life should be and found peace with the way things are? Thatâ ™s going to shake things up and take the edge off your pain and discomfort way more than any quick fix could.But being at peace doesnâ ™t necessarily mean being peaceful, and it certainly isnâ ™t being passive; it means embracing life in all its colours.Instead of constantly trying to change our lives, ourselves, or the world around us, just say â ˜F**k Itâ ™. This is a radical message that can create radical shifts in your perception of life, just as it is.
