The Other Side of the Coin: The Queen, the Dresser and the Wardrobe
When Angela Kelly and The Queen are together, laughter echoes through the corridors of Buckingham Palace. Angela has worked with The Queen and walked the corridors of the Royal Household for twenty-five years, initially as Her Majesty’s Senior Dresser and then latterly as Her Majesty’s Personal Advisor, Curator, Wardrobe and In-house Designer. As the first person in history to hold this title, she shares a uniquely close working relationship with The Queen. In The Other Side of the Coin, The Queen has personally given Angela her blessing to share their extraordinary bond with the world. Whether it’s preparing for a formal occasion or brightening Her Majesty’s day with a playful joke, Angela’s priority is to serve and support. Sharing never-before-seen photographs – many from Angela’s own private collection – and charming anecdotes of their time spent together, this revealing book provides memorable insights into what it’s like to work closely with The Queen, to curate her wardrobe and to discover a true and lasting connection along the way.
This special edition of The Other Side of the Coin has been revised and updated to mark The Queen's Platinum Jubilee, containing previously unseen chapters covering the Royal Household's isolation during the pandemic, Angela's own devotion to service to keep the monarch safe, and the light and laughter that was shared behind closed doors, even in the darkest moments.

The Other Side
It's not so long ago that a woman's expressed interest in other realms would have ruined her reputation, or even killed her. And yet spiritualism, in various incarnations, has influenced numerous men - including lauded modernist artists such as Wassily Kandinsky, Piet Mondrian, Kazimir Malevich and Paul Klee - without repercussion. The fact that so many radical women artists of their generation - and earlier - also drank deeply from the same spiritual well has for too long been sorely neglected.
In THE OTHER SIDE, we explore the lives and work of a group of extraordinary women, from the twelfth-century mystic, composer and artist Hildegard of Bingen to the nineteenth-century English spiritualist Georgiana Houghton, whose paintings swirl like a cosmic Jackson Pollock; the early twentieth-century Swedish artist, Hilma af Klint, who painted with the help of her spirit guides and whose recent exhibition at New York's Guggenheim broke all attendance records; the 'Desert Transcendentalist', Agnes Pelton, who painted her visions beneath the vast skies of California; the Swiss healer, Emma Kunz, who used geometric drawings to treat her patients; and the British surrealist and occultist, Ithell Colquhoun, whose estate of more than 5,000 works recently entered the Tate gallery collection. While the individual work of these artists is unique, the women loosely shared the same goal: to communicate with, and learn from, other dimensions.
Weaving in and out of these myriad lives, sharing her own memories of otherworldly experiences, Jennifer Higgie discusses the solace of ritual, the gender exclusions of art history, the contemporary relevance of myth, the boom in alternative ways of understanding the world and the impact of spiritualism on feminism and contemporary art. A radical reappraisal of a marginalised group of artists, THE OTHER SIDE is an intoxicating blend of memoir, biography and art history.

The Great Plains and Other Great Experiences/Velké pláně a další velké zážitky
"Americký Středozápad je dalším tématem, který zaujal autorku po napsání knížek o našich krajanech v Texasu. Stejně jako do Texasu odcházeli lidé z českých zemí do Kansasu, Nebrasky, Iowy a dalších míst, kde se mohli usadit. Byla zde úrodná půda a i když, hlavně z počátku tu život nebyl rozhodně lehký, měli zde možnost svobodného podnikání, ať v řemeslech či v zemědělství.
Autorka se ve svých reportážích a rozhovorech ještě částečně vrací do Texasu, dále provází čtenáře českou částí Iowy, kde nechybí výlet do Spillville a vzpomínka a dokumenty na zdejší pobyt Antonína Dvořáka v roce 1893, představení tamějšího muzea bratrů Bílých, kteří vyřezávali ze dřeva světové unikátní hrací hodiny a kde je byt, kde slavný skladatel tehdy bydlel, dále představení známého českého muzea v Cedar Rapids, aj. Ale nejen muzea, české kostely, školy a hřbitovy jsou v knize popisovány. Více prostoru je věnováno současným a význačným Čechům jako např. bratrům Klimešovým (původem z Jižních Čech), kteří se starají o veškerou historii a památky Iowy, elegantní a aktivní honorární konzulce Kansasu Sharon Valasek, absolventce vojenské školy a nyní farmářce a chovatelce závodních koní Marii J., atd.

Paycheck and Other Classic Stories by Philip K. Dick
With a Preface by the Author and an Introduction by Roger Zelazny "The collected stories of Philip K. Dick are awe inspiring." --"The Washington Post" Readers worldwide consider Philip K. Dick to have been the greatest science fiction writer on any planet. Since his untimely death in 1982, interest in Dick's works has continued to mount, and his reputation has been enhanced by a growing body of critical attention. The Philip K. Dick Award is now presented annually to a distinguished work of science fiction, and the Philip K. Dick Society is devoted to the study and promulgation of his works. This collection draws from the writer's earliest short and medium-length fiction (including several previously unpublished stories), written during the years 1952-1955, and features such fascinating stories as "Paycheck " (adapted as a major motion picture starring Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman), "Beyond Lies the Wub, The Short Happy Life of the Brown Oxford, The Variable Man," and many others. Here, readers will find Dick's initial explorations of the themes he so brilliantly brought to life in his later work. Dick won the prestigious Hugo Award for the best novel of 1963 for "The Man in the High Castle." In the last year of his life, the film Blade Runner was made from his novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" More recently, Dick's short story "The Minority Report " inspired Steven Spielberg's movie of the same title. The classic stories of Philip K. Dick offer an intriguing glimpse into the imagination of one of science fiction's most enduring and respected names. "Philip K. Dick's best books always describe a future that is both entirely recognizable and utterly unimaginable." --"The New York Times Book Review" "More than anyone else in the field, Mr. Dick really puts you inside people's minds." --"The Wall Street Journal"

The Awakening & Other Short Stories
The Awakening shocked turn-of-the-century readers with its forthright treatment of sex and suicide. Departing from literary convention, Kate Chopin failed to condemn her heroine's desire for an affair with the son of a Louisiana resort owner, whom she meets on vacation. The power of sensuality, the delusion of ecstatic love, and the solitude that accompanies the trappings of middle- and upper-class life are the themes of this now-classic novel. As Kaye Gibbons points out in her Introduction, Chopin "was writing American realism before most Americans could bear to hear that they were living it."

Eugenics and Other Evils (EN)
"The Frenchman works until he can play. The American works until he can’t play; and then thanks the devil, his master, that he is donkey enough to die in harness. But the Englishman, as he has since become, works until he can pretend that he never worked at all." ‘Eugenics and Other Evils’ (1922) is a magnificent takedown of the entire basis of eugenic thought – the idea that controlled breeding will improve the human population.

The Hungarian Other
The primary aim of the present book is to come to terms with the relationship of Jewish Hungarians and the modern history of Hungary. Typical interpretations are briefly reviewed and, obviously, attempts are made to put forward an own interpretation. Needless to say, the issues discussed in a Hungarian context can also be seen from a much more general perspective. In other words, the question that the present volume aims to answer is: Could the explanatory power of national history be strong enough if defined in a homogenized narrative? Can the stories of people who consider themselves to belong to one nation but who have a very different historical background be linked in any way? From a modern viewpoint, the term Jewish is a rather delicate one in itself. It is largely influenced by the various manifestations of the joint power of anti-Semitism and the self-image of the one-time homogeneous Jewish community that has evolved as a result. This joint power is so strong that it highlights descent even where it would otherwise be less significant. Nevertheless, it is the very fate of Jewish Hungarians that shows us how entirely different experiences can accumulate within a national community that is considered homogeneous. In fact, we could as well abandon the homogenized concept of the Hungarian nation and see the Hungarian past as an integrative national history. The “other” is also Hungarian: the Hungarian other. This Hungarianness might be slightly different, yet this difference does not make it less Hungarian. This has always been so and will most probably remain so in the future.
