Can it be reclaimed?With the UK more divided than ever, England has re-emerged as a potent force in our culture and politics. But today the dominant story told about our country serves solely the interests of the right. The only people who dare speak of Englishness are cheerleaders for Brexit, exceptionalism and imperial nostalgia.Yet there are other stories, equally compelling, about who we are: about the English people’s radical inclusivity, their deep-rooted commitment to the natural world, their long struggle to win rights for all. These stories put the Chartists, the Diggers and the Suffragettes in their rightful place alongside Nelson and Churchill. They draw on the medieval writers and Romantic poets who reflect a more sustainable relationship with the natural world. And they include the diverse voices exploring our shared challenges of identity and equality today.Here, Caroline Lucas delves into our literary heritage to explore what it can teach us about the most pressing issues of our time: whether the toxic legacy of Empire, the struggle for constitutional reform, or the accelerating climate emergency.

Stop Saying You're Fine - Mel Robbins

This hands-on guide from Mel Robbins, one of America’s top relationship experts and radio/tv personalities, addresses why over 100 million Americans secretly feel frustrated and bored with their lives and reveals what you can do about it. Mel Robbins has spent her career teaching people how to push past their self-imposed limits to get what they truly desire. She has an in-depth understanding of the psychological and social factors that repeatedly hold you back, and more important, a unique set of tools for getting you where you want to be. In Stop Saying You’re Fine, she draws on neuroscientific research, interviews with countless everyday people, and ideas she’s tested in her own life to show what works and what doesn’t. The key, she explains, is understanding how your own brain works against you. Because evolution has biased your mental gears against taking action, what you need are techniques to outsmart yourself.  That may sound impossible, but Mel has created a remarkably effective method to help you do just that--and some of her discoveries will astonish you.

Malcolm Gladwell focuses on "minor geniuses" and idiosyncratic behavior to illuminate the ways all of us organize experience in this "delightful" (Bloomberg News) collection of writings from The New Yorker.What is the difference between choking and panicking? Why are there dozens of varieties of mustard-but only one variety of ketchup? What do football players teach us about how to hire teachers? What does hair dye tell us about the history of the 20th century?

The Uncomfortable Truth About Money - Paul Podolsky

We are all stuck in a money cage. Money isnÂ’t the most important thing, but it is a thing and you canÂ’t get away from it. Birth costs money and death costs money. So even if you hate talking about money, you need to know the basics, the same way you need to know how to cook yourself a simple meal. The problem with most money books is that they are not written by practitioners and avoid hard truths. What a weathered investor knows is that stocks are not always good for the long run. They know that being stingy helps accrue wealth. They know the big thing when you buy property has nothing to do with the property. They know the big thing is less what happens to the markets in a day than if the entire system holds together. And they know what to look for if itÂ’s time to pull out. ThatÂ’s what this book will teach you, a lifetime of money learnings distilled to a thin volume, like a basic cooking recipe you can follow.

What Animals Teach Us About Families - Beth A. Berkowitz

Reading the Bible and rabbinic literature to reimagine the bonds between animals.  Moving beyond debates about the ethics of animal consumption to focus on animals' intimate lives, Beth A. Berkowitz examines the contribution of religious traditions and sacred texts to contemporary conversations about animals. Reading the four "animal family" laws of the Bible alongside their rabbinic interpretations from ancient times to today, she examines the bonds that animals form with each other and reimagines family to include new forms of life and alternative modes of kinship.  Humanitarian politics—and biblical law—tend to take for granted that human interests supersede animal interests and that our moral obligation extends only to avoiding unnecessary suffering, but necessity is determined by humans. What Animals Teach Us About Families looks at animal emotions, animal agency, family diversity, and human response to reconsider the obligations and opportunities the animal family presents.

Audiokniha: Co se skrývá pod slupkou módní ikony. Zevrubný životopis talentované, komplikované a mimořádně ctižádostivé ženy, která dobyla odvětví, jemuž do té doby dominovali muži. Není člověka, který by neznal módní značku Chanel, ale co bližšího víme o její zakladatelce? Osvobodila ženy od korzetů a vyměnila sešněrovanost a okázalost za oblečení, v němž mohly žít, dýchat a cítit se svobodně a pohodlně. Prožila těžké dětství v klášterním sirotčinci, kde ji místo vlastních rodičů vychovávaly jeptišky, byla obviňována z kolaborace s nacisty a jejím největším uměleckým dílem se stal, kromě malých černých a Chanelu N. 5, její vlastní život. Justine Picardie strávila studiem života a díla Coco Chanel deset let. Neváhala navštěvovat archivy, objet místa, kde Chanel žila a tvořila, a mluvit s pamětníky z řad rodiny, přátel i kolegů. Velmi působivý je barvitý popis sirotčince, kde sestry chodily po chodbách v černých hábitech s růženci, a následné srovnání s ikonickými malými černými a perlovými náhrdelníky, které Chanel prodávala svým zákaznicím.

In Vogue on Coco Chanel, acclaimed fashion writer and commentator Bronwyn Cosgrave traces the story of Coco Chanel''s iconic designs and glamorous, racy life. Featuring original illustrations and images from celebrated photographers, such as Cecil Beaton, the book provides a completely fresh look at the fashion designer, who is arguably ''the most influential female designer of the twentieth century''. Coco Chanel pioneered classic easy-to-wear fashion for the modern woman. Perhaps her most important contribution to the fashion world was the simple, much-imitated ''little black dress'', which made its debut in 1926. Other landmark creations include the Chanel suit and the quilted handbag. It is a testament to her lasting influence that these legendary designs remain as popular today as when they first appeared.

Coco Chanel - Isabelle Fiemeyer

An updated authorized edition of Isabelle Fiemeyer’s literary biography of Coco Chanel, which demystifies the legendary designer’s life. Coco Chanel was an emancipated fashion revolutionary. Raised by nuns in an orphanage, she rose to become a star of the world of couture and a byword for stylish elegance. But now, a fascinating new light can be shed on her life and career. During the Second World War, Chanel closed her couture house, but accepted the enemy’s help in rescuing her beloved nephew from a prison camp. However, as newly declassified information reveals, she did not supply any information in exchange for this favour. Moreover, it now seems that she was unknowingly listed as an agent because of her British connections and friendship with Winston Churchill. Featuring unpublished and exclusive content based on first-hand interviews with Chanel’s great-niece and confidante, this evocative portrait is based on years of painstaking archive research and tells the true story of the twentieth century’s most celebrated yet enigmatic fashion icon.

Nový životopis této moderní ženy par excellence poukazuje na zásadní novátorství jejího návrhářského stylu. Tématem legend se staly její četné milostné vztahy, jejichž dramatické a tragické podrobnosti často dřívějším životopiscům unikaly: vtipná a uhrančivá Coco byla múzou, patronkou či milenkou Picassa, Dalího, Stravinského a dalších pozoruhodných osobností.

Coco Chanel: Roaring Twenties

A glimpse into the revolutionary elegance that shaped modern fashion The beginnings of Chanel's fashion brand lie in the French seaside resorts. In 1912, Coco—then still Gabrielle—Chanel opened her first boutique in Deauville; shops in Biarritz, Monte Carlo and Cannes soon followed. There, her simple, sporty designs met with a cosmopolitan clientele who carried her fashion back to the capital, Paris. In the 1920s, the Chanel brand thus experienced its first heyday, driven by the artistic and social upheaval of those years, the Roaring Twenties. This lavishly illustrated catalogue documents in drawings and photographs the extraordinary productivity of the designer who maintained friendships with artists such as Jean Cocteau, Pablo Picasso and others. In the 1920s, Serge Diaghilev's Ballets Russes were performing on the Riviera. The book reveals the Slavic influence in Chanel's creations, highlighting a network of correspondences with female artists close to Diaghilev's circle, such as Natalia Goncharova and Sonia Delaunay. The book also features La Pausa, Gabrielle Chanel's dream villa built in 1929 near Monaco.

Single and Psycho - Young Caroline

A lively, sharp and thought-provoking exploration of the enduring stereotype of the dangerous single woman in popular culture.From the obsessive ''bunny boiler'' of Fatal Attraction to the tabloid frenzy over Taylor Swift’s relationship status, Caroline Young explores how single women have so often been portrayed as unstable, dangerous, or incomplete. Blending cultural criticism with her own personal experience, Young examines how these stereotypes have been shaped by broader social trends, including the antifeminist backlash of the 1980s and the current renaissance of the ‘trad-wife’. Through her analysis of books, movies, and TV shows, she reveals how these narratives reflect deeper anxieties about women’s independence. Engaging, witty, fun and feminist, Single and Psycho is a timely critique of how society views single women – and a celebration of their complexity and resilience.

Coco Chanel - Justine Picardie

Revoluční módní návrhářka nahradila korzety z velrybích kostí námořnickými halenkami a volnými kalhotami a okázalé večerní róby vyměnila za malé černé šaty s jedinou šňůrkou perel. Zkrátka oblečením, v němž ženy mohly žít, dýchat a cítit se pohodlně. Obávaná i uctívaná svými současníky zemřela v roce 1971, ale její odkaz žije dál jako trvalá globální značka. Britská spisovatelka Justine Picardie strávila deset let pátráním po skutečné Coco Chanel, skryté pod slupkou legendární módní ikony. Ve své knize odhaluje skutečnost zbavenou nánosů romantiky a mýtů. Seznamuje nás s detaily traumatického dětství, útěku do nekonvenční dospělosti, odhaluje bolestnou minulost, lásky a ztráty, honbu za slávou a bohatstvím a to, jak se Chanel proměnila ve svůj největší výtvor. Biografie doprovázená více než šedesáti dobovými fotografiemi se umístila mezi finalisty Galaxy National Book Awards 2010.
