Junot Diaz s new collection, This Is How You Lose Her, is a collection of linked narratives about love - passionate love, illicit love, dying love, maternal love - told through the lives of New Jersey Dominicans, as they struggle to find a point where their two worlds meet. In prose that is endlessly energetic and inventive, tender and funny, it lays bare the infinite longing and inevitable weaknesses of the human heart. Most of all, these stories remind us that the habit of passion always triumphs over experience and that love, when it hits us for real, has a half-life of forever.

** LONGLISTED FOR THE JAMES CROPPER WAINWRIGHT PRIZE LONGLIST 2022 ** Will open the minds of even the most ardent denier of climate change and/or systemic racism. If there’s one book that will help you to be an effective activist for climate justice, it’s this one. Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, author of This is Why I Resist: Don t Define My Black Identity Really packs a punch Aja Barber, author of Consumed: The Need for Collective Change: Colonialism, Climate Change, and ConsumerismWhen we talk about racism, we often mean personal prejudice or institutional biases. Climate change doesn’t work that way. It is structurally racist, disproportionately caused by majority White people in majority White countries, with the damage unleashed overwhelmingly on people of colour. The climate crisis reflects and reinforces racial injustices.In this eye-opening book, writer and environmental activist Jeremy Williams takes us on a short, urgent journey across the globe – from Kenya to India, the USA to Australia – to understand how White privilege and climate change overlap. We’ll look at the environmental facts, hear the experiences of the people most affected on our planet and learn from the activists leading the change.It’s time for each of us to find our place in the global struggle for justice.

Before he wrote A Series of Unfortunate Events , before the Baudelaires became orphans, even before the invention of Netflix, Lemony Snicket asked all the wrong questions. Four to be exact.This is the account of the fourth question.There was a town, and there was a train, and there was a murder. Apprentice investigator Lemony Snicket was on the train, and he thought that if he solved the murder he could save the town.In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an exquisitely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent. You⠙ll laugh only if you find humour in gothic and mysterious things involving detectives and crime solving.Lemony⠙s other literary outings in ⠘A Series of Unfortunate Events⠙ have sold 60 million copies worldwide and been made into a Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey and a Netflix series starring Neil Patrick Harris. These regrettable developments mean that millions of fans have found out about the dreadful plight of the Baudelaire orphans, but you do not have to. You have been warned.Have you read all four mysterious titles in the Wrong Questions series?⠘Who Could That Be at the This Hour?⠙⠘When Did You Last See Her?⠙⠘Shouldn⠙t You Be in School?⠙⠘Why is This Night Different from All Other Nights?⠙Author Lemony Snicket was born before you were and is likely to die before you as well. He was born in a small town where the inhabitants were suspicious and prone to riot. He grew up near the sea and currently lives beneath it. Until recently, he was living somewhere else. He is a broken man, wracked with misery and despair as a result of writing A Series of Unfortunate Events . He spends his days wandering the countryside weeping and moaning and his evenings eating hastily-prepared meals.Artist Seth has portrayed suspicious circumstances and shady characters in much of his work. He is a multi-award-winning cartoonist, author and artist, whose works include Palookaville and Clyde Fans.

Many of us were told to stuff our feelings down when we were younger. We were taught that our emotional reactions should be controlled so we didn t embarrass or upset our parents. However, if that control oozes over into our adult relationships, it s considered a bad thing. Controlling our friends or romantic partners is seen as toxic. Some sides of control are meant to keep us safe, while others harm connections. So, what are we supposed to do?In Why Do I Keep Doing This? licensed therapist Kati Morton explores this common struggle. She shows how our anxiety is often connected to feeling like we are too much or less deserving of time and care. Difficulties with asserting ourselves, or taking what we require, can harm our development and we sometimes think the only way to feel okay is to please everyone else first. Why Do I Keep Doing This? is a vital tool in helping us understand why control can be so attractive, but if left unmonitored can become detrimental to our lives. We all go through tough times, but we have to notice what behaviours are holding us back and change them.Why Do I Keep Doing This? will shed light on shared struggles as readers follow Kati through key points of growth in her own life, while incorporating what she has learned as a therapist and content creator who knows how to create lasting healthy change. This book will give readers the ability to not only ask themselves why do I keep doing this? but also have the insight to find a real answer.

A smart, irreverent, and accessible guide to thinking more deeply about how religion permeates and shapes the world around us –and why you need to understand the work it s doingReligion lurks in the floorboards of our daily lives, whether we want it to or not. A departure from more traditional approaches to Religion 101, Religion Is Not Done with You gives thought-provoking context to the basics of religious studies by challenging readers to consider the origins of their assumptions about religion and broaden their perspectives on what religion is and does.Religion scholars and Keeping It 101 podcast duo Ilyse Morgenstein Fuerst and Megan Goodwin offer their straightforward, plainspoken overviews of religious studies theory: that religion is what people do (not just beliefs or individual practices); that people are complicated and messy and constantly changing, which means religion is also complicated and messy and constantly changing; that religion shapes what choices you get to make. Choices like what you can learn in school; how your government works; what kind of options you have (or increasingly don’t have) in caring for your own body.Sure, you have the choice to participate in religion or not. But how you make that choice builds on your entire personal history, your connection to communities and regions, and the systems that surround you. All of which have been shaped by religion.Religion is systems and structures and assumptions we didn’t create or choose – and, to be honest, we might not even like or agree with. You can feel however you want to feel about religion, but religion is shaping your world whether you like it or not. And if you don’t like how religion is shaping our world? This book might just be your first step in diagnosing the problems and agitating for positive change. Even if you are done with religion, religion is not done with you.

Kniha skutečných příběhů posledních nejvýznamnějších kanibalských Papuánských náčelníků a autentický záznam komunikace při symbolickém Posledním Prvním Kontaktu . Po tisíciletí byly takového příběhy předávány z generace na generaci pouze verbálně. Tato kniha /bohatě doplněných černobílými fotografiemi/ je první zaznamenaný materiál přepsaných autentických nahrávek rozhovorů s posledními přírodními lidmi doby kamenné předtím, než je navždy změní globalizace. Všichni mluví v první osobě a popisují své skutečné zážitky, neboť v džungli se nerozlišuje (západním úhlem pohledu) přirozené od nadpřirozeného. Všechno je reálné. Až dosud bývaly první kontakty věcí moci, násilí, zvětšování teritorií a území vlivu, /ale naše země nikdy nekolonizovala jiné/ a o dnes již zaniklých animistických kulturách se zachovala svědectví prospektorů, misionářů, vojáků a antropologů, aniž domorodci vyprávějí sami o sobě. První kontakt s posledními přírodními národy až dosud nikdy neučinili umělci, přestože jde o Setkání kultur .... Jedná se rozšířenou verzi knihy Proč je noc černá, jejíž první vydání roku 2005 získalo cenu Magnesia Litera za objev roku. A book of true stories told by the ‘last prominent cannibal Papuan tribal chiefs and the authentic record of communication during the symbolic ‘Final First Contact . For thousands of years, stories like these have been part of the tribes oral tradition, passed down from generation to generation. This book /richly supplemented with black and white photographs/ is the first ever transcription of authentic recorded interviews, conducted with the final indigenous tribespeople before their primeval culture is forever changed by globalisation. The first-person accounts describe the tribesmen s true stories, at least from their point of view: for them, there is no distinction between the natural and the supernatural - everything is equally real. Until now, ‘first contacts have been a matter of power, violence, the expansion of territories and spheres of influence /but our country has never colonized others/ and there are testimonies of prospectors, missionaries, soldiers, and anthropologists about the now extinct animist cultures, without the natives telling their own stories. The first contact with the last natural nations had never previously been made by artists, despite the fact that it was a Meeting of Cultures… This is an expanded version of the book Why the Night is Black, the first edition of which won the 2005 Magnesia Litera Award for Discovery of the Year.
