The Ultimate Hidden Truth of the World
Drawn from more than two decades of pathbreaking writing, and ranging across the biggest issues of our time – inequality, technology, the identity of ‘the West,’ democracy, art, power, anger, mutual aid and protest – Graeber’s essays challenge the old assumptions about political life. Despite converging political, economic, and ecological crises, our politics is still dominated by either ‘business as usual’ or nostalgia for a mythical past. Instead, Graeber shows himself to be a trenchant critic of the order of things, driven by a bold imagination and a passionate hope that our world can be different.
The incisive, entertaining and urgent essays collected in The Ultimate Hidden Truth of the World make for essential reading. They are a profound reminder of Graeber's enduring significance as an inspiring and necessary thinker.

A war-scarred mage. A sentient ship. A secret that could drown empires.
When Ensign Bluemage Honor Renn is rescued from the wreckage of her first naval post, she expects death or disgrace. Instead, she wakes aboard the Touchstone, a mythic vessel whispered of in dockside ballads and royal war rooms alike.
With a crew of misfits. A mysterious, elven captain. And a mission tied to the Dreadwall, the crumbling barrier that has kept the Overland and Nethersea from open war for a hundred years.
But the tragedy that sank her last ship didn't just take lives.
It left something behind.
Now Renn carries a secret everyone wants. A magik that's chimeric, arcane...and slowly killing her. But the captain's mission may be her only chance to survive, even if he still doesn't trust her.
Caught between privateers, princes, and spies, Renn knows each choice could sink her future?or set the sea on fire.
Ship of Spells is perfect for readers who crave the raw grit of Arya Stark, the world-building of Samantha Shannon, and the slow-burn tension of enemies who should never trust or want each other.

Souls and Sorrows - Monsters & Muses 5
From USA Today bestselling author Sav R. Miller comes a dark enemies to lovers romance inspired by the myth of Eros and Psyche.
Her new husband isn’t the monster she thinks.
Cash Primrose takes his namesake seriously. As a successful environmental lawyer, work is his focus, and he has no room on his plate for anything else. That is, until an ex-ballerina gets herself into a bind at an underground auction, and he becomes so enamoured with her that he ends up placing a bid.
A quarter of a billion dollars later, and suddenly Cash is married to more than just his career. Not to mention, his new wife is a complete nightmare.
As the middle daughter of a once-prominent crime family, and her mother's former punching bag, Ariana Ricci is no stranger to grappling for control. She relies on seduction and violence to get what she wants, and thinks her new husband will be just as easy to manipulate as the men she's used to dealing with.
Only, Cash is different. He won't touch Ariana, doesn't retaliate when she lashes out in anger, and, in spite of their temporary status, sticks up for her when he could just let her get into trouble.
He isn't exactly kind, but perhaps the stoic, secretive lawyer is precisely what she needs to start healing once and for all.
The fifth instalment of Sav R. Miller’s Monsters & Muses series is a dark and addictive opposites attract romance, and is not to be missed by fans of Greek mythology-inspired, spicy romance tales.

The Eleventh Hour
If old age was thought of as an evening, ending in midnight oblivion, they were well into the eleventh hour.
Two quarrelsome old men in Chennai, India, experience private tragedy against the backdrop of national calamity. Revisiting the Bombay neighbourhood of Midnight's Children, a magical musician is unhappily married to a multibillionaire. In an English university college, an undead academic asks a lonely student to avenge his former tormentor.
These five dazzling works of fiction move between the three countries that Salman Rushdie has called home – India, England and America – and explore what it means to approach the eleventh hour of life. They are the reckoning with mortality that we all must one day make, and speak deeply to what the author has come from and through.
Do we accommodate ourselves to death, or rail against it? How can we bid farewell to the places that we have made home? How do we achieve fulfilment with our lives if we don't know the end of our own stories? The Eleventh Hour ponders life and death, legacy and identity with the penetrating insight and boundless imagination that have made Salman Rushdie one of the most celebrated writers of our time.

A fascinating blend of horror and magical realism, this spine-tingling thriller explores the complex relationship between women, their bodies, and the natural world. Cutthroat NYC lawyer Mary Whelton just buried her problematic old mentor. But as she leaves the mourners and protesters behind, the press stays hot on her heels. Desperate to escape, she unwittingly barrels deep into a remote forest in upstate New York. Until a collision—with a buzzing, oozing throng of cicadas—stops her dead in her tracks. She awakens in a crude cabin, held captive by Girl, a simple, hulking woman who mistakes Mary for her derelict mother and obsesses over a mysterious Brood. While tortured echoes from Mary’s past feed her growing sense of fear, it becomes clear that she’s destined to bear an unthinkable role in the cicadas’ cyclical reemergence. But when Girl’s grisly past comes back to haunt them both, Mary is thrust into a violent battle of wills. Confoundingly creepy and atmospheric, The Brood peels back the hurt and pain of the female experience, laying bare the messy necessity for transformation and growth.

Gyöngéd barbárok
A lírai hangvételű Gyöngéd barbárok című regényében Hrabal egyszerre állít emléket művészbarátainak, a tragikus sorsú, nem sokkal az ország 1968-as megszállását követően öngyilkosságba menekülő festőnek, Vladimír Boudníknak és a költő Egon Bondynak, illetve rajtuk keresztül a háború utáni prágai művészvilág zsúfolt kocsmáiban, őrült figurái között kavargó ifjúságuknak, a művészetbe vetett mámoros hit, a szabadságkeresés megzabolázhatatlanul vad korszakának.
A naiv és szenvedélyes Vladimír gyermeki rácsodálkozással szemléli a világot, amelynek legapróbb, leghétköznapibb részletében is ott látja a szépség és a teremtés ígéretét, lehetőségét. Hrabal nem klasszikus emlékiratot ír, mozaikszerűen felvillanó jelenetekből, párbeszédekből építi fel a maga nosztalgikus univerzumát, amelynek varázsát éppen az adja, hogy együtt, egy időben van benne jelen a múlt álomszerű otthonossága és e múlt eltűnésének, elvesztésének szelíd bölcsességgel viselt fájdalma.
Ez a csapongó, mégis bensőséges hangulatú regény végső soron arról szól, hogy az ember miként őrizheti meg a szabadságát és a méltóságát egy olyan korban, egy olyan világban, amely egyiket sem tartja fontosnak, sőt.
