Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.While wine drunk millennia ago was the humble beverage of the people, today the drink is inextricable with power, sophistication, and often wealth. Bottles sell for half a million dollars. Point systems tell us which wines are considered the best. Wine professionals give us the language to describe what we taste.Agricultural product and cultural commodity, drink of ritual and drink of addiction, purveyor of pleasure, pain, and memory - wine has never been contained in a single glass. Drawing from science, religion, literature, and memoir, Wine meditates on the power structures bound up with making and drinking this ancient, intoxicating beverage.Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

Discover how to win in any situation using the ancient wisdom of the Shaolin monks. The Shaolin monks in China are legendary for their mastery of kung fu, but the secret to their success – their ability to rise to any challenge, handle stress and overcome conflict – lies not in their physical strength but in their powerful mindset. Captivated by the legend of the Shaolin monks, leadership coach Bernhard Moestl travelled to China to live among them.What he learned there surprised him – the teachings of Shaolin are not about fighting. The Shaolin monks understand that through their minds they have control over themselves and their surroundings, and that it is the mind alone that allows them to succeed. In this book, Bernhard has distilled the monks’ incredible way of thinking into 13 life principles, including resoluteness, self-knowledge and community.By following this ancient path, you will discover the monks’ greatest lesson: the ultimate success is learning to fight so well that you do not need to fight at all. You do not need to be a monk or live in a monastery to apply these principles to your life. Bernhard provides modern examples, exercises and inspiring quotes to ease ...

The Austrian playwright, novelist, and poet Thomas Bernhard (1931-89) is acknowledged as among the major writers of our times. At once pessimistic and exhilarating, Bernhard's work depicts the corruption of the modern world, the dynamics of totalitarianism, and the interplay of reality and appearance. In this stunning translation of The Voice Imitator, Bernhard gives us one of his most darkly comic works. A series of parable-like anecdotes—some drawn from newspaper reports, some from conversation, some from hearsay—this satire is both subtle and acerbic. What initially appear to be quaint little stories inevitably indict the sterility and callousness of modern life, not just in urban centers but everywhere. Bernhard presents an ordinary world careening into absurdity and disaster. Politicians, professionals, tourists, civil servants—the usual victims of Bernhard's inspired misanthropy—succumb one after another to madness, mishap, or suicide. The shortest piece, titled "Mail," illustrates the anonymity and alienation that have become standard in contemporary society: "For years after our mother's death, the Post Office still delivered letters that were addressed to her. The Post Office had taken no notice of her death."In his disarming, sometimes hilarious style, Bernhard delivers a lethal punch with every anecdote. George Steiner has connected Bernhard to "the ...

Během svého téměř desetiletého přátelství s Thomasem Bernhardem se obchodník s realitami Karl Ignaz Hennetmair (*1920), žijící v sedmdesátých letech v bezprostředním sousedství spisovatelova domu v hornorakouském Ohlsdorfu, rozhodl zaznamenávat rozhovory a události Bernhardova života formou deníkových zápisů. Pečlivě si je vedl od 1. ledna 1972 do 1. ledna 1973; sbíral dokumenty o tom, co všechno s Bernhardem prožil a o čem spolu mluvili během dlouhých vycházek po okolí Ohlsdorfu. Přitom se nevyhýbali tématům, o nichž jinak Bernhard s nikým nemluvil tak otevřeně a bez skrupulí, ať šlo o názory na uměleckou scénu, o honoráře, praktiky nakladatelství nebo o úzké přátelské vztahy, či dokonce o ženy. Hennetmair později poznamenal: Thomas musel něco tušit, někdy mi dokonce sám nosil dopisy a dokumenty, aniž jsme kdy na toto téma prohodili jediné slovo. Hennetmairovy zápisky líčí řadu detailů a událostí z pohledu člověka, který měl k autorovi přístup jako málokdo jiný. Rodinné scény a humor, jímž Bernhard oplýval ve chvílích, kdy se cítil v bezpečí, jsou cenným svědectvím spisovatelova soukromého života. Nikde jinde, a už vůbec ne v autorově díle, k nim v této podobě cestu nenalezneme. Česky vychází ve výboru a překladu Radovana Charváta.

Three aspiring concert pianists - Wertheimer, Glenn Gould, and the narrator - have dedicated their lives to achieving the status of a virtuoso. But one day, two of them overhear Gould playing Bach''s Goldberg Variations, and his incomparable genius instantly destroys them both. They are forced to abandon their musical ambitions: Wertheimer, over a tortured process of disintegration that sees him becoming obsessed with both writing and his own sister, with whom he has a quasi-incestuous relationship culminating in death; and the narrator, instantly, retreating into obscurity to write a book that he periodically destroys and restarts. Written as a monologue in one remarkable unbroken paragraph, Thomas Bernhard''s dazzling meditation on failure, genius, and fame is a radical new reading experience: musical, paralysing, raging, and inimitable.

As their friendship quickens, these two eccentric men discover in each other an antidote to their feelings of despair on the unexpected strength of what they share - a spiritual symmetry forged by their love of music, black humour, disgust for bourgeois Vienna, and fear of mortality. A restless blend of fiction and memoir, Wittgenstein’s Nephew is not only a haunting meditation on the artist’s struggle to maintain a foothold on reality, but an impassioned eulogy to a real-life friendship - newly illuminated by Ben Lerner''s afterword.

A collection of previously untranslated stories from a master of twentieth-century Austrian literature, Thomas Bernhard. “The cold increases with the clarity,” said Thomas Bernhard while accepting a major literary prize in 1965. That clarity was the postwar realization that the West’s last remaining cultural reference points were being swept away by the ever-greater commodification of humankind. Collecting five stylistically transitional tales by Bernhard, all of which take place in sites of extreme cold, this volume extends that bleak vision of the master Austrian storyteller.  In “Ungenach,” the reluctant heir of an enormous estate chooses to give away his legacy to an assortment of oddballs as he discovers the past of his older brother, who was murdered during a career in futile colonialist philanthropy. In “The Weatherproof Cape,” a lawyer tries to maintain a sense of familial solidarity with a now-dead client with the help of an unremarkable piece of clothing. “Midland in Stilfs” casts a jaundiced eye on the laughable efforts of a cosmopolitan foreigner to attain local authenticity on a moribund Alpine farmstead. In “At the Ortler,” two middle-aged brothers—one a scientist, the other an acrobat—meditate on their unusual career paths while they climb a mountain to reclaim ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Bernhard Schlink si románem Předčítač (Vorleser, 1995) získal světovou proslulost. V rovině osudového milostného vztahu v něm zpracoval čtenářsky přitažlivým způsobem téma německé viny za zločiny druhé světové války. Příběh mladíka zamilovaného do mnohem starší ženy, o jejíž temné nacistické minulosti se dovídá teprve později, byl přeložen do sedmatřiceti jazyků a zfilmován. Stejnojmenný snímek byl v roce 2009 nominován na pět Oscarů a představitelka hlavní ženské role Kate Winsletová získala Oscara za nejlepší herečku. Bernhard Schlink se narodil roku 1944 u Bielefeldu v Severním Porýní. Vystudoval práva, žije a pracuje jako právník v Berlíně a v New Yorku. V osmdesátých letech vstoupil do literatury detektivními romány (Gordický uzel, Selbův podvod a Spravedlnost podle Selba), v nichž představil omšelého soukromého detektiva Selba, který se potýká s nacionálněsocialistickou minulostí své země i svou vlastní. Ke kriminálnímu žánru se vrátil ještě v roce 2001 románem Selbova vražda. Světového úspěchu dosáhl románem Předčítač (Vorleser, 1995). Ve své další knize Návrat (Die Heimkehr, 2006), jejíž český překlad vyšel v nakladatelství PROSTOR roku 2007, spojil napínavý, takřka detektivní příběh s motivem objevování a vyrovnávání se s nacistickou minulostí.

V románu Staří mistři (1985) přivádí slavný rakouský spisovatel Thomas Bernhard (1931-1989) takřka k dokonalosti svou literární metodu zobrazení světa. Základní téma celého svého díla - je to komedie? je to tragédie? - rozehrává se sarkasmem a sžíravou kritikou všeho a všech. Na jedné straně umění nadsázky, komika a humor, na straně druhé vášnivé zaujetí proti státu - zejména rakouskému -, společnosti a kultuře. A tak jedni v něm vidí neúprosného morálního kritika, druzí mistra literární komiky a humoru. Ať tak či tak, oba tyto póly Bernhard přetavuje ve výsostnou literaturu, jejíž četba je mimořádným zážitkem.

Autor bestsellerů Bernhard Moestl se již více než 35 let zabývá asijskou moudrostí a bojovým uměním. Obzvlášť intenzivně studoval tajné znalosti ninjů. Japonští špióni – v běžném životě k nepoznaní – totiž po staletí řídili běh věcí prostřednictvím svých strategií. Stínoví bojovníci pozorovali protivníky a problémové situace – a nacházeli aktuální řešení. Ten, kdo se učí od ninjů, nemusí bojovat, aby zvítězil. Takový člověk neplýtvá svými silami. Naopak, angažuje se v každodenním životě pouze tam, kde může něčeho dosáhnout: protože ten, kdo dokáže zapůsobit v tichosti, dosáhne největšího účinku.

V kariéře trvající téměř pět desetiletí v Berlíně a New Yorku položil Bernhard základ pro nový jazyk formy a komunikace. Jeho brilantní plakáty, reklamy, návrhy knih a písma vytvořily samotný vzhled dvacátého století a dále. V této bohatě ilustrované knize sleduje známý historik designu Christopher Long Bernhardův život a kariéru, odhaluje nové pravdy a bourá staré mýty.

''Bernhard is one of the masters of contemporary European fiction''George SteinerOld Masters (1985) is Thomas Bernhard''s devilishly funny story about the friendship between two old men.For over thirty years Reger, a music critic, has sat on the same bench in front of a Tintoretto painting in a Viennese museum, thinking and railing against contemporary society, his fellow men, artists, the weather, even the state of public lavatories. His friend Atzbacher has been summoned to meet him, and through his eyes we learn more about Reger - the tragic death of his wife, his thoughts of suicide and, eventually, the true purpose of their appointment. At once pessimistic and exuberant, rancorous and hilarious, Old Masters is a richly satirical portrait of culture, genius, nationhood, class, the value of art and the pretensions of humanity.

Born in 1931, the illegitimate child of an abandoned mother, Thomas Bernhard was brought up by an eccentric grandmother and adored grandfather. Tormented as a young student in a right-wing, catholic Austria, Bernhard ran away from home aged fifteen. At eighteen he contracted pneumonia. Placed in a hospital ward for the old and terminally ill, he observed with unflinching acuity protracted suffering and death. From the age of 21, everything he wrote was shaped by the urgency of a dying man''s testament - his witness, the quintessence of his life and knowledge - and where this account of his life ends, his art begins.

A collection of comics with a millennial take on marriage, adulthood, pet ownership, self-love, and self-care. Finally, comics that answer life’s most pressing questions: Is my partner actually upset or just hangry? Whose turn is it to remember the reusable shopping bags? Is it appropriate to put up Halloween décor two months in advance? (Spoiler alert: Yes. Yes, it is.) “Opposites attract” has never rung truer when it comes to vivacious extrovert Meg and her level-headed introvert husband, Carson. Carson makes his coffee with only the finest locally roasted beans; Meg microwaves two-day-old joe. Carson is reserved and rarely opens up to friends; Meg ensures everyone in her life—including her mailman—knows about her hemorrhoid. From the joys of marrying your best friend to the bizarre musings of a twelve-pound pup to the humor and heartbreak of anxiety, Meg’s all-too-relatable comics leave no stone unturned. Dorky and downright hilarious, Why Are You Like This? explores what it means to make fun of oneself and find laughter in the little things.

Psychologist Dr. Meg Arroll offers a much-needed framework for recognizing and combatting the devastating cumulative effects of small everyday wounds—“tiny traumas”—that, like major traumas, can negatively shape our lives.Have you ever felt at a loss for an answer when asked: ‘How are you really feeling?” Maybe you can’t quite put your finger on it, but you know something is definitely off. Microaggressions, challenging family relationships, toxic positivity, work and pandemic stress, gaslighting—these are just a few examples of what psychologist Dr. Meg Arroll calls “Tiny T” trauma. These tiny traumas can slowly build up inside of us, and if ignored for too long, can manifest in our lives as high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, binge eating, insomnia, broken relationships, and a host of other problems. While advice on healing from major trauma is plentiful, there is little guidance available to help us recover from these “smaller” yet emotionally devastating traumas that are common to all of us. Now, Dr. Meg fills that gap and helps us find peace with this revolutionary guide.In Tiny Traumas, Dr. Meg introduces her three-step AAA approach that allows us to start understanding and healing from these tiny traumas:Awareness: discover your unique constellation of tiny traumasAcceptance: see how ...
