The winds of change are blowing through both city and countryside, and it s impossible to predict what will happen. When the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War puts Barbara and everyone around her in peril--including the Spanish Socialist parliamentarian she s fallen deeply in love with--the terror and hatred seem all too familiar. It s like Germany all over again, only with its own cast of extremist characters.Hounded simultaneously by Stalinist checas, Francoist Facists, and the German Gestapo, Barbara fights to keep her bookstore the safe haven that she s always imagined it would be. But with war brewing both inside Spain and outside its borders throughout the entirety of Europe--and beyond--Barbara isn t sure who exactly she can trust, or if people really are who they claim to be.A story told with tremendous heart and astonishing historical accuracy, A Bookseller in Madrid is ultimately a story about dreams--dreaming with courage when nothing seems to make sense, and dreaming with hope when words printed on a page are all you can hold on to.

Wodehouse, Evelyn Waugh and Graham Greene Independent Highly enjoyable read SpectatorAnthony Whitelands, an English art historian, is invited to Madrid to value the collection of a Spanish duke. At a welcome lunch he encounters José Antonio Primo de Rivera, founder and leader of the Falange, a nationalist party whose antics are bringing the country ever closer to civil war. The paintings turn out to be worthless, but before Whitelands can leave for London the duke s daughter Paquita reveals a secret and genuine treasure, held for years in the cellars of her ancestral home. Afraid that the duke will cash in his wealth to finance the Falange, the Spanish authorities resolve to keep a close eye on the Englishman, who is also being watched by his own embassy. As Whitelands - ever a fool for a pretty face - vies with Primo de Rivera for Paquita s affections, he learns of a final interested party: Madrid is crawling with Soviet spies, and Moscow will stop at nothing to secure the hidden prize.Translated from the Spanish by Nick Caistor

Amber Guinness brings the heart of Tuscany’s cosy autumnal and wintry flavours to your kitchen. Following the success of A House Party in Tuscany and Italian Coastal, Amber Guinness invites you on an artful tour through her beloved Southern Tuscany and favourite pockets of Florence. Winter in Tuscany celebrates the region’s rich culinary and cultural traditions with a quanto basta approach – the intuitive, Italian method of ‘just enough’ – and brings the heart of Tuscany’s cosy autumnal and wintry flavours to your kitchen. But quanto basta is more than just a philosophy for cooking; it’s a metaphor for life. This book celebrates life in the off-season; an ode to exploring Tuscany’s villages and countryside when the crowds have thinned, allowing for a deeper, more intimate connection with the culture, food and landscapes. In discovering treasures off the beaten path, Amber highlights the richness of exploring at a gentler pace, when Tuscany truly reveals itself. The book is filled with an array of hyper-local, traditional recipes for the home cook: from antipasti, zuppe – thick, hearty Tuscan soups – and brodo, brothy concoctions that bring comfort on colder days, to rustic pasta, rice and secondi – meat and vegetable mains that celebrate the season. Whether you’re strolling beneath Della Robbia’s cherubs or simmering a hearty soup on a cold winter’s night, Winter in Tuscany is an invitation to slow down and appreciate the beauty in small moments and big flavours.

As if Marguerite Duras wrote Convenience Store Woman - a beautiful, unexpected novel from a debut French Korean authorIt’s winter in Sokcho, a tourist town on the border between South and North Korea. The cold slows everything down. Bodies are red and raw, the fish turn venomous, beyond the beach guns point out from the North’s watchtowers. A young French Korean woman works as a receptionist in a tired guesthouse. One evening, an unexpected guest arrives: a French cartoonist determined to find inspiration in this desolate landscape.The two form an uneasy relationship. When she agrees to accompany him on trips to discover an ‘authentic’ Korea, they visit snowy mountaintops and dramatic waterfalls, and cross into North Korea. But he takes no interest in the Sokcho she knows – the gaudy neon lights, the scars of war, the fish market where her mother works. As she’s pulled into his vision and taken in by his drawings, she strikes upon a way to finally be seen.An exquisitely-crafted debut, which won the Prix Robert Walser, Winter in Sokcho is a novel about shared identities and divided selves, vision and blindness, intimacy and alienation. Elisa Shua Duspain’s voice is distinctive and unmistakable.

In winter, nature takes on a new, almost mystical guise. Stripped bare, its bones are revealed and its delicate beauty exposed. Colours drain away, fading to sepia brown and inky black, focusing the eye on shape and texture and encouraging us to slow down and appreciate the breathtaking beauty and detail of nature. Experience the tranquil beauty and stillness of the coldest months of the year through incredible images of every continent. The concept of winter in European languages is associated with the season of dormancy. In Persian culture, the winter solstice is called Yalda meaning birth and it has been celebrated for thousands of years. It is referred to as the eve of the birth of Mithra, who symbolised light, goodness and strength on earth. Winter is December, January, February in the Northern Hemisphere and June, July and August in the Southern Hemisphere. With stunning colour photography Winter is a lively display of this icy season in all four corners of the globe. 150 colour photographs of stunning scenery and wildlife Includes fascinating glimpses of frozen and hibernating flora and fauna A perfect gift for any fan of wildlife and nature

Civic Contestation in Global Education takes readers into classrooms and schools on the front lines of civic education in pluralistic and divided democracies. The book offers eight case studies of educators and policy makers wrestling with schools civic and ethical responsibilities around the globe. Examples of the case studies include teaching critical consciousness in an Anti-CRT state, religiously sensitive satirical cartoons and radical extremism, and accommodating religion in schools. Each case is followed by a model conversation among diverse participants based in Australia, Canada, Germany, The Netherlands, South Africa, Spain, the UK and the USA. The participants include scholars, activists, teachers, students, parents, and community leaders from across the political spectrum. Each chapter includes discussion questions and suggestions for further reading. Taken together, these cases and conversations provide readers critical resources both for deliberating about the ethical challenges facing schools in a time of civic disruption, and for charting a path toward a more just and democratic future worldwide. In a German classroom, a student eagerly shares Querdenker conspiracy theories (analogous to QAnon) during a class discussion, doubling down on the importance of “critical thinking” and “looking at all the evidence” when challenged by teachers and classmates. How should his teacher respond? In Madrid, two 12 year-olds spend the weekend convincing a peer to text them a topless photo that they then circulate to their classmates. What responsibility does their school have, if any, to address this out-of-school violation of trust and digital citizenship norms? In Iowa, parents and legislators raise concerns about “critical race theory” being taught in K-12 schools, while in Toronto, a school faces public backlash over constitutionally-permitted accommodations it has made for Muslim students to pray after lunch on Fridays in the school cafeteria. What steps might school leaders take next to respond to public concerns while also supporting the students in their buildings? More case studies and resources can be found at justiceinschools.org.

The Franklin expedition was not alone in suffering early and unexplained deaths. Indeed, both Back (1837) and Ross (1849) suffered early onset of unaccountable debility aboard ship and Ross suffered greater fatalities during his single winter in the Arctic than did Franklin during his first. Both expeditions were forced to retreat because of the rapacious illness that stalked their ships.Frozen in Time makes the case that this illness (starting with the Back expedition) was due to the crews overwhelming reliance on a new technology, namely tinned foods. This not only exposed the seamen to lead, an insidious poison - as has been demonstrated in Franklin s case by Dr. Beattie s research - but it also left them vulnerable to scurvy, the ancient scourge of seafarers which had been thought to have been largely cured in the early years of the nineteenth century.Fully revised, Frozen in Time will update the research outlined in the original edition, and will introduce independent confirmation of Dr. Beattie s lead hypothesis, along with corroboration of his discovery of physical evidence for both scurvy and cannibalism. In addition, the book includes a new introduction written by Margaret Atwood, who has long been fascinated by the role of the Franklin Expedition in Canada s literary conscience, and has made a pilgrimage to the site of the Franklin Expedition graves on Beechey Island.

Alphonse, a young Walloon officer, is travelling to join his regiment in Madrid in 1739. But he soon finds himself mysteriously detained at a highway inn in the strange and varied company of thieves, brigands, cabbalists, noblemen, coquettes and gypsies, whose stories he records over sixty-six days. The resulting manuscript is discovered some forty years later in a sealed casket, from which tales of characters transformed through disguise, magic and illusion, of honour and cowardice, of hauntings and seductions, leap forth to create a vibrant polyphony of human voices. Jan Potocki (1761-1812) used a range of literary styles - gothic, picaresque, adventure, pastoral, erotica - in his novel of stories-within-stories, which, like the Decameron and Tales from the Thousand and One Nights, provides entertainment on an epic scale.

After two important exhibitions in 2022 at the Galería Álvaro Alcázar in Madrid with Proyecto para una isla and at the Galería Pelaires in Palma de Mallorca with De sal y ceniza, the artist, together with the curator and art critic Iván de la Nuez, has developed this editorial project which brings together the latest series of Nadal s work. Guillem Nadal manages to make his paintings take on the consistency of sculpture and his painting takes on the appearance of raw material; mixed pieces that speak of islands, skulls and shipwrecks, creating a system of signs, an art of survival in which he makes use of the utensils that nature lends him. Pieces that are on the borderline of shipwreck or failure, whether they are carried out or not, but which at the same time have their own identity. This is the language of this contemplative, visceral and violent art. This art that doesn t want nature to convince us, but to conquer us . - Iván de la Nuez

Shortlisted for The Wainwright Prize for Illustrated BooksShortlisted for the Royal Society of Literature s Christopher Bland Prize Honest, evocative, inspiring SARAH WATERS A thing of beauty CLARE BALDING A brilliant storyteller MOLLY LEMON I think many of us overlook the beauty of winter, not least the bare and beautiful framework of a winter tree silhouetted against a bright sky... Welsh printmaker Richard Shimell is known by many for his intricate, beautiful prints of winter trees. In Trees in Winter, his poignant memoir, Richard explores his life, love of nature and his art, sharing the moving, personal journey that led him from being a lost young man in London, to becoming a professional artist as he entered his fifties, and now living back in rural Wales. With reflections on how he connects with nature and finds creative inspiration and spiritual healing in the natural world, Richard s emotional and intimate story gives hope to anyone who has struggled to find their own way and about how much joy can be found in mid-life.*** The clarity of Richard Shimell s words perfectly matches that of his pictures, making this a magnificent book in which to lose yourself, and succumb to the wisdom of the trees MIKE PARKER Emotionally resonant and impactful... Shimell s writing is suffused with a queer sensibility, recognising as it does a world-altering distinction in ways of seeing - between what is and what yet might be IRISH TIMES Trees in Winter by Richard Shimell is a wonderful, beautiful book ANGELA HARDING Richard is a brilliant storyteller, his writing takes you through memories and moments as if you were there with him. This nostalgic and thoughtful read will make you want to grab a sketchbook head out into the countryside. It reminds you how important it is to observe and absorb the wonders of wildlife and rural landscapes, especially those beautiful trees MOLLY LEMON Through the pages of Trees in Winter, Richard shares his prints and takes us on his own personal journey and how his love of walking in wild places and being a part of nature has helped him to deal with life. Richard also explains how these experiences have been instrumental in his becoming the professional printmaker he is today. This book is an absorbing read which spoke to me in many of my own life situations - I thoroughly recommend it! JANE SPINK

Sprchový kout Madrid 90 s vaničkou Sprchový kout Madrid je řešením pro lidi, kteří si v koupelně cení praktických řešení. Produkt je vybaven dvojitými pantovými dveřmi, které se kromě standardního otevírání ven dají složit i dovnitř kabiny, čímž se získává spousta neocenitelného prostoru. Toto řešení bude fungovat obzvláště dobře v koupelnách s malou rozlohou. Kabina je vyrobena z 5 mm silného tvrzeného skla a vysoce kvalitního hliníku s chromovou povrchovou úpravou. Profily s touto povrchovou úpravou jsou vysoce odolné proti poškrábání a snadno se udržují v čistotě. Průhledné sklo činí kabinu velmi čistou, což nám umožňuje odhalit dlaždice na zdi a zároveň opticky zvětšit prostor v koupelně. Sprchový kout Madrid je k dispozici ve dvou rozměrech: 80x80 cm a 90x90 cm. Lze instalovat se sprchovou vaničkou. Kabina je k dispozici i ve verzi bez sprchové vaničky, její součástí je soklová lišta, která zajišťuje těsnost a zabraňuje stékání vody ven z kabiny. Jednoduché kliky dveří nepochybně nenarušují jednoduchý design a zároveň perfektně plní svou funkci. Kabina je také vybavena sloupkovými dveřními panty s mechanismem „zvedání“. Tento systém zvedne křídlo dveří přibližně o 4 mm při otevírání dveří. Toto řešení zajišťuje přesné přilnutí těsnění k podlaze (nebo sprchové vaničce) v zavřené poloze. Zaručuje také snadné otevírání dveří (těsnění nedře o podlahu ani o okraj sprchové vaničky). To je obzvláště užitečné při instalaci produktu přímo na podlahu, která má sklon směrem k odvodňovacímu žlabu. Sprchový kout Madrid - normy a testy Kabinu jsme testovali v souladu s evropskou normou EN 14428. Výsledkem je pozitivní zkušební protokol, který vám zaručuje bezpečnost a odolnost produktu po mnoho let. Pokud se rozhodnete pro variantu se sprchovou vaničkou, obdržíte kabinu vybavenou akrylátovou sprchovou vaničkou vyrobenou v Polsku v souladu s evropskou normou EN 14527. Sprchová vanička byla testována mimo jiné na zatížení a také na odolnost vůči chemikáliím. Všechny chatky Kerra mají také hygienický certifikát vydaný Národním hygienickým ústavem (PZH) Národního ústavu veřejného zdraví. Proto si vyberte produkt, který je osvědčený, bezpečný a testovaný dle platných norem. Jistě se můžete spolehnout na profesionály s 25 lety zkušeností.
