In his final word on an astonishing career, Cavendish shares an intimate insight to his life.

The Image of Her


She's living a perfect life - so why does Laurence feel so torn? Weekends in the country, weekdays in Paris - Laurence's life features all the trappings of 1960s French bourgeoisie. She has money, a handsome husband, two daughters and a lover. She also has a successful career as an advertising copywriter, though her mind writes copy while she's at home, and dreams of domesticity in the office. All her life she has strived to meet the expectations of others. But when her 10-year-old daughter, Catherine, starts to vocalise her despair about the unfairness of the world, Laurence must finally grapple with a life that prizes image over truth. Slim but powerful, this is a classic story of womanhood and its oppressors, parents and their children, and the quest for personal truth - by the iconic feminist Simone de Beauvoir.

Presence


An immersive hidden history of the female body, with radical implications for how we understand our bodies today Sex and abortion, pregnancy and birth, feeding and rocking and washing: these are embodied practices with a deep past. Yet the history of the female body remains largely unknown - even unimagined. Combining memoir with archival research, from fragments in medical texts, trial transcripts, legal treatises, prayerbooks, letters, and diaries, Erin Maglaque assembles a chorus of women's voices from the pre-modern past. We encounter a vanished past both strikingly recognisable and strange, when ideas of the female body, sexuality, work and pleasure were more varied, more unruly, and sometimes freer. This is the invisible history of the female body - birthing, caring, working, desiring. Reaching deep into the shared history of women's lives, Presence points towards a radical new way of understanding our bodies today.

Spomienka na Rudolfa Steinera


Antropozofická lekárka Ita Wegmanová v sebe dlho nosila zámer zostaviť svoje spomienky na Rudolfa Steinera z posledného obdobia jeho života – vrcholu vzostupu antropozofie. Počas života Rudolfa Steinera si len zriedka zaznamenávala svoje zážitky zo stretnutí s ním – alebo sa tieto vôbec nezachovali. Mnohé naznačuje, že Ita Wegmanová nevidela potrebu písomného záznamu svojich zážitkov a prežitých skúseností a chránila to, čo bolo vzácne, tým, že to nezaznamenávala. Formovala svoje neskoršie pamätné prejavy z hlbín svojich vnútorných spomienok – zdieľala to, čo považovala za prístupné a vhodné zdieľať. Veľa z toho videla na vlastné oči, vrátane osobných rozhovorov. Wegmanová sa však nakoniec rozhodla proti publikovaniu. Medzi jej dokumentmi sa našli dôležité poznámky, zápisy zo zápisníkov a rukopisy prednášok. V tejto súvislosti bolo jasným rozhodnutím publikovať niektoré z jej spomienok na Rudolfa Steinera z rukopisov poznámkovej knihy pri príležitosti 66. výročia úmrtia Ity Wegmanovej, ako aj opäť sprístupniť rôzne eseje a články, ktoré napísala krátko po smrti svojho učiteľa – v obavách o budúcnosť Antropozofickej spoločnosti a v snahe zachovať centrum antropozofie, jej tvorcu, jeho dielo a jeho zámery. Kniha v slovenskom preklade vychádza k 100. výročiu úmrtia Rudolfa Steinera.

US Liberty Ship vs German Surface Raider


Fully illustrated, this study examines World War II's most dramatic single-ship action, in which Stephen Hopkins fought a heavily armed German auxiliary cruiser, Stier. When the United States entered World War II, the Battle of the Atlantic was already raging. The so-called ‘Liberty Ships’, built at breakneck speed and in huge numbers during 1941–45, were crucial to the Allied war effort. While the greatest successes of Germany’s auxiliary cruisers occurred in 1939–41, this book describes how one of these ingenious warships, Stier, confronted the Liberty Ship Stephen Hopkins in an epic single-ship duel on September 27, 1942. Stephen Hopkins carried one 4in gun, two 37mm cannon and six machine guns, all primarily intended for antisubmarine and antiaircraft purposes. Stier had six 150mm, one 75mm, one twin 37mm, four single 20mm and four 533mm torpedo tubes. At the end of this grossly uneven fight, Stier had sunk Stephen Hopkins, but was so badly damaged it had to be scuttled. While this battle has garnered much attention, Mark Lardas explores other clashes between the German surface raiders and their Liberty Ship quarry during 1942. Featuring specially commissioned artwork and mapping alongside archive photographs, this lively study investigates the important role both ship types played as the Battle of the Atlantic reached its climax.

Talking in Bed


The essential pocket edition of this most beloved and quoted of poets. Our almost-instinct almost true:What will survive of us is love. In lines perfectly constructed and as beautiful as they are plain-spoken, Philip Larkin found a way of delineating our most difficult emotions - giving them back to us in images and formulations that help us both comprehend and contain ourselves. His is a fine-tuning that turns 'true and kind' more truthfully into 'not untrue and not unkind.' These are poems to live with and through, from the trenchant assertion of 'They fuck you up. . .', to the transcendent image-making of 'High Windows':Rather than words comes the thought of high windows:The sun-comprehending glass,And beyond it, the deep blue air, that showsNothing, and is nowhere, and is endless.
