Po smrti nejlepšího kamaráda si Erik Ly v hlavě vytváří imaginární scénáře, které mu pomáhají vyrovnat se se smutkem. Vtom se ale jeden z nich uskuteční – do jeho života se vrátí kluk, kterého loni v létě potkal v Japonsku. Haru Tanaka zkrátka zničehonic nakráčí do kavárny a posadí se vedle něj. Problém je v tom, že ho nikdo jiný nevidí. Erik má konečně někoho, kdo je mu blízký, a už se na světě necítí tak sám.

In When I Was a Nipper Alan Titchmarsh goes on a personal and nostalgic journey through post-War Britain in search of treasured values and traditions that were once the soul of society. With characteristic wit, warmth and humour he draws on the experience of his own childhood, and also takes a broader perspective, creating a wonderfully detailed and evocative portrait of a way of life that is fast disappearing, and asks what can we learn from this era of austerity to make our lives better today?Born in Yorkshire in 1949 and brought up in a Britain still recovering from World War 2, Alan remembers a time of relative calm, when it was enough to return home at night knowing that the house would still be standing. We were known throughout the world for our patience, resourcefulness and resilience. ''Mustn''t grumble'' was almost a national catchphrase, and queuing was second nature.

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. No matter how much you fight against it, dust pervades everything. It gathers in even layers, adapting to the contours of things and marking the passage of time. In itself, it is also a gathering place, a random community of what has been and what is yet to be, a catalog of traces and a set of promises: dead skin cells and plant pollen, hair and paper fibers, not to mention dust mites who make it their home. And so, dust blurs the boundaries between the living and the dead, plant and animal matter, the inside and the outside, you and the world (“for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return”). This book treats one of the most mundane and familiar phenomena, showing how it can provide a key to thinking about existence, community, and justice today.Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

After a decade of yearning for parenthood, years marked by miscarriage after miscarriage, Hala Alyan makes the decision to use a surrogate. In this charged time, she turns to the archetype of the waiting woman – the Scheherazade who tells stories to ensure another dawn – to confront her own narratives of motherhood, love and inheritance.As her baby grows in the body of another woman, in another country, Hala finds her own life unravelling – a husband who wants to leave; the cost of past traumas and addictions threatening to resurface; the city of her youth, Beirut, on the brink of crisis. She turns to family stories and communal myths: of grandmothers mapping their lives through Palestine, Kuwait, Suria, Lebanon; of eradicated villages and invading armies; of places of refuge that proved only temporary; of men that left and women that stayed; of the contradictions of her own Midwestern childhood, and adolescence in various Arab cities.A stunningly lyrical and brutally honest quest for motherhood, selfhood and peoplehood, I''ll Tell You When I''m Home is a powerful story of unravelling and becoming, of destruction and redemption, and of homelands lost and recreated.

In When Grandma Burnt Her Bra, author Samantha Tidy and illustrator Aśka depict the world as seen by a child whose own grandma, a loud and proud feminist, was part of the revolution that now benefits us all. Readers of all types will enjoy this humorous story that plays on how children hear stories and reproduce them in their minds. The narrative uses dinosaurs slowly invading the backyard (and the story itself) to convey the shift across time in the fight for women’s equality and rights — taking the story all the way back to a time when people lived in caves and stone-age attitudes dominated. This unashamedly feminist text uses humour, history, the childhood perception of age, underwear and the unexpected appearance of dinosaurs to broach a tricky subject without casting blame. The book communicates that across history, both men and women (as depicted in the illustrations) have broken down barriers that women should no longer need to face. It conveys carefully and quirkily the complex message that things were not always equal — and that they are not yet equal –—but the continued fight for equality lies with each new generation.

Frank O''Hara was one of the great poets of the twentieth century and, along with such widely acclaimed writers as Denise Levertov, Allen Ginsberg, Robert Creeley and Gary Snyder, a crucial contributor to what Donald Allen termed the New American Poetry, ''which, by its vitality alone, became the dominant force in the American poetic tradition.''Frank O''Hara was born in Baltimore in 1926 and grew up in New England; from 1951 he lived and worked in New York, both for Art News and for the Museum of Modern Art, where he was an associate curator. O''Hara''s untimely death in 1966 at the age of forty was, in the words of fellow poet John Ashbery, ''the biggest secret loss to American poetry since John Wheelwright was killed.''This collection is a reissue of a volume first published by Grove Press in 1957, and it demonstrates beautifully the flawless rhythm underlying O''Hara''s conviction that to write poetry, indeed to live, ''you just go on your nerve.''

''For personal reasons, or for reasons I don''t know myself, I began feeling old, and I began keeping notebooks. I was nearing the age of sixty''Georges Simenon''s autobiographical notebooks, in which he recorded his observations, experiences, anxieties and ''all the silly ideas that pass through my head'', are one of the most candid self-portraits of a writer ever put to paper. Here, as the celebrated author ruthlessly examines his tortuous writing methods, his past, his fame, his intimate relationships and his fears of ageing, the result is an unsparing, often painfully revealing insight into a man trying both to find and to escape himself. ''As revealed in these notebooks, Simenon''s is a shrewd, lucid mind ... the balance tips toward the real, the immediate, the mysteries of human complexity above all ... Utterly unpretentious'' The New York Times

Hampton Hawes [1928–1977] was one of jazz''s greatest pianists. Among his peers from California the self-taught Hawes was second only to Oscar Peterson. At the time of his celebration as New Star of the Year by downbeat magazine (1956), Hawes was already struggling with a heroin addiction that would lead to his arrest and imprisonment, and the interruption of a brilliant career. In 1963 President John F. Kennedy granted Hawes an Executive Pardon. In eloquent and humorous language Hampton Hawes tells of a life of suffering and redemption that reads like an improbable novel. Gary Giddins has called it "a major contribution to the literature of jazz." This book includes a complete discography and eight pages of photographs.
