More Stories about Buildings & People
These fifteen short stories from Brooke Fieldhouse include six old favourites: the Warner Group prizewinning love story THE GIFT, the liquid nightmare of DROWNING BY NUMBERS and the petrifying tale of immuration RAW CONCRETE.The collection is in three parts: Love, Fear, and Love & Fear, and each story is headed with a colour image taken from original collages by the author.The nine previously unpublished pieces range from the bone chilling THE LILYWHITE BOY, through the heartbreaking story of Deidre’s attempt to achieve immortality by RUNNING WITH THE BULLS, the mysteriously philosophical MINDFULNESS COMPASSION & THE SECOND SEX, to the metaphysical surreal adult fairy tale THERE ISN’T AN OUNCE OF MALICE IN A MOOSE. The group also includes the reconciliatory IN PLAIN SIGHT which was shortlisted for the 2019 Fiction Factory Prize, and the mischievously morbid care home fable A PERFECT LIKENESS which was long-listed for the 2020 Fiction Factory Prize.Fieldhouse dedicates the book to his late parents and elaborates with a brief, thoroughly unsentimental and notably misery-free memoir and a haunting Afterword.

To já jsem uměním
Osamu Dazai patří k nejvýraznějším a nejčtenějším autorům moderní japonské literatury. Výbor To já jsem uměním jej představuje v celé šíři jeho tvorby: jako nemilosrdného pozorovatele vlastních slabostí, ironického glosátora literárního světa, originálního vypravěče i temně komického mistra převyprávění.Autobiografické prózy, v nichž se Dazai vrací k tokijským rokům, chudobě, závislostem, láskám, vině i pocitu vykořenění, se zde potkávají s nápaditými adaptacemi japonských pohádek, čínských motivů i biblického příběhu. V každém textu se přitom znovu a znovu objevuje autorovo zraněné, pochybující a zároveň neobyčejně bystré „já" - někdy tragické, jindy groteskní, vždy však bolestně živé.To já jsem uměním je pronikavý a překvapivě vtipný výbor povídek, které česky doposud knižně nevyšly; povídky spisovatele, který dokázal ze své vnitřní nejistoty, zoufalství i sebezničující ironie vytvořit literaturu mimořádné síly. Knihu doplňuje doslov překladatelky Veroniky Abbasové, přibližující Dazaiův život, tvorbu i místo v dějinách japonské literatury.

Hannah Arendt
The long-awaited and revelatory biography of Hannah Arendt ? one of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century ? and the story of an intellectual icon whose character and ideas continue to captivate and challenge us to this day.
Born in Germany in 1906 to a Jewish family, Hannah Arendt became a chronicler able to translate personal experience into concise analysis; an analytical thinker who wrested from Plato, Kant, and Heidegger that which seemed eternal yet was of the utmost contemporary relevance; a free spirit who felt an obligation only to her friends, her lovers, and the truth. Arendt's mode of thinking and the sheer range of her interlocutors and influences form an intellectual panorama of the twentieth century that is unparalleled. For her entire life, she refused to think within boundaries ? her teachers, friends, and intellectual allies included Heidegger, Bultmann, Mannheim, Brecht, and Benjamin, to name but a few.
Drawing on newly discovered archival materials and previously overlooked documents in both Germany and the USA, Thomas Meyer traces Arendt's journey from Königsberg to Paris ? where she fled after being imprisoned in 1933 ? and finally to New York in 1941, illuminating her formative years and the development of her radical and brilliant books, as well as her famous affair and lifelong philosophical debate with Martin Heidegger, whose Nazism was a permanent challenge to her.
Woman, friend, lover, journalist, Jew, human rights activist, philosopher and political theorist, Arendt continues to exert fascination as both icon and thinker. Meyer's biography centres on two pivotal phases: Arendt's years in Paris after fleeing Nazi Germany, and her time in the United States leading up to the landmark publication of The Origins of Totalitarianismin 1951. It was her coverage of the trial of Adolf Eichmann in Jerusalem in 1961, however, that would make her world-famous ? and notorious. Her coining of the phrase *the banality of evil* to describe the Nazi bureaucrat who had helped orchestrate the Holocaust remains one of the most debated and resonant formulations in modern thought, as controversial today as when she first wrote it.
The result is not only a meticulous reconstruction of an extraordinary life but a compelling invitation to rethink her legacy for our own troubled times. At a moment of acute political polarisation, with liberalism in crisis and urgent debates about freedom, responsibility, and truth unfolding all around us, Arendt's ideas resonate more powerfully than ever ? and this magnificent biography restores to us the full complexity of the woman behind them.

America
'He created his own universe and became its star' David Cronenberg, GuardianAndy Warhol carried a camera with him everywhere he went and, taken from ten years of extraordinary shots, his America aspires to the strange beauty and staggering contradictions of the country itself. Exploring his greatest obsessions - including image and celebrity - he photographs wrestlers and politicians, the beautiful wealthy and the disenfranchised poor, Capote with the fresh scars of a facelift and Madonna hiding beneath a brunette bob. He writes about the country he loves, wishing he had died when he was shot, commercialism, fame and beauty.An America without Warhol is almost as inconceivable as Warhol without America, and this touching, witty tribute is the great artist of the superficial at his most deeply personal.
Will There Ever Be Another You
'Lockwood has a modern comic sensibility like no one else' The Times'Characteristically witty, lyrical, sometimes bonkers' New York TimesThe world might be in disarray, but for one young woman, the very weave of herself seems to have loosened. Time and memories pass straight through her body, she's afraid of her own floorboards, and the lyrics of 'What Is Love' play over and over in her ears. 'I'm sorry not to respond to your email,' she writes, 'but I live completely in the present now.'Tearing through the slippery terrains of fiction and reality, the possibility for human connection seems to beckon from the other side - and with it, the chance for a blinding re-emergence into the world.From one of our most original, inventive and prodigiously funny writers, Will There Ever Be Another You is a phosphorescent, wild and profound investigation into what keeps us alive in unprecedented times.
