Thousand Autumns: Qian Qiu (Novel) Vol. 1
The beloved danmei/Boys' Love wuxia novel series from China that inspired the donghua (animated series) streaming in English!
In this historical tale, a Daoist martial artist must begin a journey of healing and self-reflection as he resists the temptations of the powerful leader of a demonic sect.
Shen Qiao is a devout Daoist priest who has spent his life honing his skills and spirit, leading his sect with martial talent, beauty beyond measure, and an earnest heart. His polar opposite, Yan Wushi, leads one of the most powerful demonic sects and is said to be unrivaled in his strength and cunning. Yan Wushi believes in the inherently selfish nature of all people-himself included-and that nobody is above committing dark deeds for their own benefit.
When a fight leaves Shen Qiao injured, blind, and with hazy memories, Yan Wushi takes in the defeated sect leader with a dark plan: test the limits of the man's patience and faith in others to lure him onto the demonic path. Little does he know that he is about to meet the first immovable force of his life, and that two hearts can connect in unexpected ways. With the passing of a thousand autumns, who can stay eternal?
This Chinese historical fiction tale about powerful martial artists (wuxia) built around the desire between two men (danmei) inspired a beloved animated series (donghua). The Seven Seas English-language edition will include exclusive, all-new covers and interior illustrations.

The Story Of The Lost Child
Soon to be an HBO series, book four in the New York Times bestselling Neapolitan quartet about two friends in post-war Italy is a rich, intense, and generous-hearted epic by one of today's most beloved and acclaimed writers, Elena Ferrante, "one of the great novelists of our time." (Roxana Robinson, The New York Times) Here is the dazzling saga of two women, the brilliant, bookish Elena and the fiery uncontainable Lila. In this book, life's great discoveries have been made, its vagaries and losses have been suffered. Through it all, the women's friendship, examined in its every detail over the course of four books, remains the gravitational center of their lives. Both women once fought to escape the neighborhood in which they grew up. Elena married, moved to Florence, started a family, and published several well-received books. But now, she has returned to Naples to be with the man she has always loved. Lila, on the other hand, never succeeded in freeing herself from Naples. She has become a successful entrepreneur, but her success draws her into closer proximity with the nepotism, chauvinism, and criminal violence that infect her neighborhood. Yet somehow this proximity to a world she has always rejected only brings her role as unacknowledged leader of that world into relief. Ferrante is one of the world's great storytellers. With the Neapolitan quartet she has given her readers an abundant, generous, and masterfully plotted page-turner that is also a stylish work of literary fiction destined to delight readers for many generations to come.

Doorways
Aurora Award Finalist story from a multi-award winning author. The House promised Jack wealth, fame, and revenge...if it didn’t kill him first.~~~Dr. Lucius Rainer, head of research at GenTech, is dead. But to Jack, it seems that his old mentor still lives on through his house. Certainly, Rainer’s strange island retreat exudes the personality of its late owner: isolated and eccentric, brooding and uninviting. But when GenTech learns that the house holds a working model of Rainer’s final project, Jack discovers that the house shares one other trait with its former owner.Dangerous.The house will open only to Jack’s biometrics, and will only allow two very specific people to accompany him: Wendy, Jack’s now ex-wife, and Deak Sanderson, Wendy’s new lover and Jack’s former rival at GenTech. As the three of them explore the house and its secrets, Jack discovers that some doors—in this house and in life—should never be opened.“A couple months ago I was introduced to Douglas Smith by way of his collected short stories, Impossibilia. So I was looking forward to his story 'Doorways' and was not disappointed. ... This story has a cunningly satisfying conclusion. I find a good short story falls into two categories: There is the complete story, the novel miniaturised, which is a nearly perfect art form. These are hard to capture but constantly illustrated by such writers as Douglas Smith.” —SF Crowsnest Book Reviews“…is based on an interesting concept … The puzzles [in the story] and the final invention that they hint at are intriguing … Smith ties [the story's] denouement’s metaphorical significance in well with the technological concept at the center of the plot.” —The Fix

A test lázadása
A rák, a szenvedélybetegségek, sőt majd minden krónikus betegség visszavezethető a gyermekkori negatív élményekre és azok életünkre, viselkedésünkre és egészségünkre gyakorolt hatására - vallja a magyar származású, világhírű tudós, dr. Máté Gábor. Az emberek testi egészsége nem független az érzelmeiktől és a lelkiállapotuktól. Ez a tudás a mai napig részét képezi a tradicionális kultúráknak, de a modern orvoslás számára sajnos annak ellenére elveszett, hogy az elmúlt évtizedek tudományos felfedezései is ezt igazolják. A test lázadása személéletesen mutatja be, hogy milyen károkat okozhat az érzelmek elfojtása, milyen pusztítást okozhat az, ha nem vagyunk képesek kifejezni az érzelmeinket. Dr. Máté Gábor tudományos kutatások eredményeit, páciensei példáit és saját tapasztalatait egyaránt felhasználva világítja meg, hogyan befolyásolják a korai élmények a stresszre adott reakcióinkat, és hogy miként hat a világról és más emberekről alkotott képünk az egészségünkre. Feltárja az egyre gyakoribb megbetegedések mögött álló okokat, és ráébreszt arra, hogy csak akkor szállhatunk szembe hatékonyan a stresszbetegségekkel, ha felfedezzük gyermekkorunk mélyre temetett emlékeit, valamint ezek felnőttkori következményeit. Hiszen a rák mellett számos krónikus betegség, mint például a szívinfarktus, a szklerózis multiplex vagy a cukorbetegség kiváltó oka is lehet a stressz. Mindnyájan úgy próbálunk élni, hogy csökkentsük a minket érő stressz hatását. A test lázadása abban segíthet, hogy csökkentsük a folyamatos stresszt, melyet mi magunk hozunk létre, anélkül hogy tudatában lennénk, életünk minden egyes napján.
Dr. Máté Gábor 1944-ben született Budapesten. Családjával 1957-ben vándorolt ki Kanadába. Több mint húsz évig családorvosként dolgozott, hét évig volt a Vancouveri Kórház orvosi koordinátora, jelenleg könyveket ír és előadásokat tart szerte a világon. Célkitűzése, hogy felhívja a figyelmet a betegségek tágabb összefüggéseire.

The Master And Margarita
Mikhail Bulgakov's devilish salute to artistic freedom, now in a beautiful clothbound edition.
Written in secret during the darkest days of Stalin's reign, The Master and Margarita became an overnight literary phenomenon when it was finally published it, signalling artistic freedom for Russians everywhere. Bulgakov's carnivalesque satire of Soviet life describes how the Devil, trailing fire and chaos in his wake, weaves himself out of the shadows and into Moscow one Spring afternoon. Brimming with magic and incident, it is full of imaginary, historical, terrifying and wonderful characters, from witches, poets and Biblical tyrants to the beautiful, courageous Margarita, who will do anything to save the imprisoned writer she loves.
Bliss

Katherine Mansfield's perceptive and resonant writing helped to define the modern short story, observing apparently trivial incidents to create quietly devastating revelations of inner lives. Graceful, delicate and burning with emotion, Mansfield's stories were integral in shaping the Modernist movement and redefined a genre. This collection contains some of Mansfield's most celebrated stories, including 'Bliss', 'The Garden Party' and 'The Daughters of the Late Colonel'.
'The only writing I have ever been jealous of.' - Virginia Woolf
What's Good
What's Good is a work of passionate lyrical analysis, a set of freewheeling liner notes, and a love letter to the most vital American art form of the last half century. Over a series of short chapters, each centered on a different lyric, Daniel Levin Becker considers how rap's use of language operates and evolves at levels ranging from the local (slang, rhyme) to the analytical (quotation, transcription) to the philosophical (morality, criticism, irony), celebrating the pleasures and perils of any attempt to decipher its meaning-making technologies.
Ranging from Sugarhill Gang to UGK to Young M.A, Rakim to Rick Ross to Rae Sremmurd, Jay-Z to Drake to Snoop Dogg, What's Good reads with the momentum of a deftly curated mixtape, drawing you into the conversation and teaching you to read it as it goes. A book for committed hip-hop heads, curious neophytes, armchair linguists, and everyone in between.
