Billie Eilish - And the Clothes She Wears
- Stunning images of global phenomenon Billie Eilish
- Revealing fashion insights from the bestselling author of Harry Styles and the Clothes He Wears and Rihanna and the Clothes She Wears
- Elegant hardback presentation including real cloth cover
- The perfect present for fans and fashionistas
Billie Eilish is a fashion phenomenon. Her goth-skate-anime wardrobe resonates loud and clear with her generation and anyone who doesn't want to be defined. Courted by the world's biggest fashion houses, Billie has a way of spotlighting inclusivity, body image, environmental issues and more, while always looking awesome. In the latest addition to this popular series, fashion writer Terry Newman casts her eye over a young megastar with oversized clothes and an even bigger attitude. When Billie Eilish burst onto the music scene aged just 14, her outfits told everyone who she was before they'd downloaded a track. She was savage and brooding. Her clothes were large and matched her attitude. Her wardrobe was made up of labels that speak the language of Gen Z and everyone who doesn't want to be defined by others. Growing up hasn't changed a thing – though she now has the command of fashion houses the world over. As such, Billie often mixes and matches Chanel, Balenciaga, Rick Owens, Yohji Yamamoto, Raf Simons and Prada with finds from Slumpy Kev, Skoot, The Incorporated and Freak City, and the result is beyond the realms of meta-modernism. It's a look that might very well bite the hand that feeds it, but Eilish doesn't care. She wears what she likes when she likes. And we're here for it.
Unneutral Murder
The liner on which Lee Mappin was travelling on what was to be one of his most dangerous and exciting missions slid unescorted from New York, her sides brilliantly flood-lit to display the neutral flag of Portugal. Among the passengers who crowded every cabin were several in whom Lee took more than a mild interest; the good-looking, smiling young Ronald Franklin, for instance, who said he was an American agent for Swiss watches; John Stanley, going out to the hard-pressed U.S. Legation in Lisbon, and his young wife Vera, daughter of a wealthy tobacco nabob; Kate McDonald, the smartly dressed but slightly pseudo-Scottish woman. Whatever the divers purposes which prompted their voyage to Europe their immediate activities were going to be very much the concern of Lee Mappin.

Find your Perfect Job
This is what this book brings you: You support certified climate protection projects, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because finding the perfect job that exactly matches your own strengths and skills is extremely difficult: The selection of opportunities, training and further education is huge and misleading, at the same time the requirements for the supposed dream job are high and it should be interesting, well paid and secure at the same time.

Therefore, one should reflect on one's own talents and abilities and thus positively highlight the undreamt-of potential of one's own strengths in the application process. In this way, you may find a dream job that you hadn't even thought of, and you can always adapt flexibly to an ever faster-changing job market, which is also an advantage if you want to change your career later in life.

Végzetes csábító
A legnagyobb bátorság az álarc levételéhez kell
Olivia és Niko a közös jövőjük reményében veszélyes feladatot vállalnak. Úgy döntenek, együtt épülnek be a maffiába. Niko álszemélyiségeit felhasználva a bejutás egyszerű ugyan, de a kiszállás korántsem az. Küldetésük során nem bízhatnak meg senki másban. Egyetlen hiba és oda a gondosan kidolgozott álca. Az egymásba vetett bizalom jelent számukra mindent. A túlélést. A kalandok során azonban újabb megdöbbentő, sokkoló darabkák kerülnek elő Niko múltjából. Veszélyesebbnél veszélyesebb helyzetekbe kerülnek, de ezek közül egyik sem olyan hátborzongató, mint Niko alteregóinak rengetege. Minden zavarossá válik, és még ők sem láthatják előre, mi történik, ha nem a rosszfiú lesz jófiúvá, hanem a jó kislány válik rosszá.
Bár mindkettőjüket más motiválja, a céljuk azonos: megszabadulni a láncaiktól és felszámolni a bűnszervezetet.
De Niko már érzi azt, amit Olivia még csak nem is sejt: a megmenekülés talán nem is lehetséges mindkettejük számára.
A Végzetes csábító a Csábító-sorozat harmadik része. A többszörösen Aranykönyv-díjra jelölt írónő legújabb, szenvedélyes és váratlan bonyodalmakkal teli modern kori romantikus történetében soha nem tudhatod, mi fog történni.

Kilégzés és más novellák
Az Érkezés többszörös Hugo- és Nebula-díjas szerzőjének régóta várt új novelláskötete kilenc történettel. Egy kereskedő megépíti a korai középkori Kairóban az első időgépet. Egy idegen tudós sokkoló felfedezést tesz, aminek a következményei nem csak a saját népére, hanem a valóság egészére érvényesek. Egy nő több mint húsz éven át viseli gondját egy mesterséges intelligenciának, ami digitális háziállatból végül igazi élőlénnyé fejlődik. A viktoriánus kori Angliában mechanikus gépek nevelik a gazdag elit újszülötteit. Egy modern felfedezés nem csak a tudomány, de a vallások alapjait is megkérdőjelezi. Ted Chiang régóta várt második novelláskötete formabontó ötleteivel és emlékezetes szereplőivel ismét elemében mutatja be korunk legfontosabb tudományos-fantasztikus szerzőjét. A Kilégzés és más novellák egy lehengerlő és időtálló gyűjtemény, mely egyaránt keresi a választ a legfontosabb kérdésekre – mi az univerzum természete? mit jelent embernek lenni? –, és olyanokra, amikre soha nem gondolnánk. Minden egyes novella könnyed eleganciával bizonyítja, hogy az összetett és jól átgondolt sci-fi történetek még mindig nem érték el a műfaj legvégső határát, sőt: hosszabb idő óta talán most először lehetünk szemtanúi egy újfajta ábrázolás létrejöttének.

Jancsó
"Mintha a könyv címe és terjedelme között ellentmondás lenne. Egy vékony kötetbe sűríteni a magyar történelem és filmművészet majd' egy évszázados krónikáját, lehetetlen vállalkozás. Másrészt fontos lenne, hogy a 2014. január 31-én meghalt rendező munkásságáról az is képet kapjon, aki csak az elmúlt huszonöt évben fedezte fel filmjeit. Felgyorsult korunkban ez vaskos kötettel szintén reménytelen lenne. Maradt az esszé szűk ösvénye, amely Jancsó Miklóst mint nagy embert mutatja be. Ez sem veszélytelen vállalkozás. Kritikus korunkban, amelyben a politikusok, celebek "nagyok" (rövid időre), magát a fogalmat is meg kell magyarázni. Voltaképp nem nehéz. Segítségünkre van Thomas Mann (aki, ugye, ,"fehérek közt egy európai"). A Lotte Weimarban című regényében azt merészelte tenni, hogy belebújt egy kétségtelenül korszakos nagy ember - Goethe - bőrébe, kigyűjtötte fontos gondolatait, és megállapította végül: a nagy ember szellemi kisugárzás, amely képes megvilágítani a dolgokat, és az alkotás csak nemes melléktermék, a nagyságot bizonyítja, de nem attól válik az ember naggyá. A nagy embert az élete teszi naggyá. Amin aztán Goethe dohog is egyet: "Az emberek legjobb esetben a művet méltányolják - az életet nem méltányolja senki. Azt mondom nektek: Csinálja valaki utánam úgy, hogy nem töri ki a nyakát!"
Mindez vonatkozik Jancsó Miklósra is. A hosszú életkor és a rengeteg mű, amelyet a rendező mindig lekicsinyelt, bár ez is a zsenialitás természetes velejárója, lehetővé tette számára, hogy akkor újuljon meg, amikor ő akarta, és nem amikor elvárták tőle, korszaktól függően, az elvtársak vagy az urak. A könyvnek talán sikerült megoldania - és ebben segít a Jancsó Miklóst alkotás közben bemutató képekből bő csokornyi -, hogy az élet, a kor és a művek egységben jelennek meg. És benne van az a csöppnyi irónia is, amelyet újfent Thomas Manntól veszek: "A nagy ember csapás a társadalomra." Nehezen tud vele mit kezdeni." - Marx József
