Eyes of Kings - Flesh & False Gods 3


"The only thing hotter than a character written by Chloe Gong is a betrayal written by Chloe Gong." -Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six War beckons in the kingdom of Talin. On one side sits Calla Tuoleimi and Anton Makusa, and on the other, the recently dethroned August Shenzhi and Calla's own predecessor Sinoa Tuoleimi. Neither will rest until the opposition is buried. Calla assumed victory would be easy. She wears the divine crown after a violent coup, wielding the most powerful weapon in the kingdom. Then the provinces start to whisper of the old gods returning to earth, and suddenly the game board is flipped upside-down. Anton thought he aligned himself with victory. When he swore to serve as Calla's general, he understood the battle they were waging. But he fears Calla is no longer herself with the crown. Rather, he fears that Calla is returning to who she once was. August would sacrifice anything for victory. He has waited his entire life for the throne, and surrender is not an option. In the face of age-old immortals challenging his terrain and the possibility of betrayal from his closest and most cherished guard, he must be careful who he trusts. Because when the war ends, there can only be one king. The action-packed finale to Chloe Gong's New York Times bestselling Flesh & False Gods trilogy - inspired by Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra - brings readers the ultimate showdown for power among gods and men.

The Future of Truth


What if a lie is told to reveal some underlying truth? Are feelings that seem inappropriate, such as hysteria following the death of a celebrity, any less true than the grief we feel over the death of a loved one? Even if the plot of an opera seems preposterous, can't it still express emotions that ring true with the audience? At the heart of this fascinating and iconoclastic book lies Werner Herzog's concept of 'ecstatic truth' - a truth that is often hidden behind the facts and our conceptions of reality but can be gleaned through the poetic imagination, in art, literature and cinema, when we open ourselves up to an aesthetic experience. Written in Herzog's inimitable style, these stories, anecdotes and reflections take us from present-day deep fakes and the opportunities and perils of AI to ancient Egypt and Rome, where rulers resorted to lies and propaganda in the same way as governments do today; from Scott and Amundsen's race to the South Pole to alien abduction claims and the making of Herzog's own films. With its singular vision and unique voice, The Future of Truth is a compelling meditation on the relationship between fact and fiction - evidence and imagination - by one of today's most fascinating and idiosyncratic thinkers.

This Modern Love Now


Have you ever wanted to write something to a partner or ex? What is the best and worst message you’ve received on a dating app? What would you say to your last hook up? Following ten years after the publication of This Modern Love, Will Darbyshire - now in his thirties - looks at how modern love has changed with This Modern Love Now. Receiving thousands of submissions from men and women around the world, from hopeless romantics to OnlyFans stars, Will delves into the enduring themes that continue to shape modern dating. These include the evolving political landscape regarding cisgendered men and women, the rise of dating apps and the prevalence of ‘situationships’, and the ever-changing dynamics of queer romances. Amidst the unprecedented connectivity we enjoy in the digital age, paradoxically, we also experience a profound sense of loneliness. Equally, messages left on read and the dreaded 'ghosting' being pitfalls of the modern dating age, the making of this book has invited the public to share those letters and messages left unsent. This Modern Love Now is a time capsule of the present. Of how our expectations and reality diverge when it comes to matters of the heart…and the occasional one-night stand.

Flaneuse


If the word flâneur conjures up visions of Baudelaire, boulevards and bohemia – then what exactly is a flâneuse?In this gloriously provocative and celebratory book, Lauren Elkin defines her as ‘a determined resourceful woman keenly attuned to the creative potential of the city, and the liberating possibilities of a good walk’.Part cultural meander, part memoir, Flâneuse traces the relationship between the city and creativity through a journey that begins in New York and moves us to Paris, via Venice, Tokyo and London, exploring along the way the paths taken by the flâneuses who have lived and walked in those cities.From nineteenth-century novelist George Sand to artist Sophie Calle, from war correspondent Martha Gellhorn to film-maker Agnes Varda, Flâneuse considers what is at stake when a certain kind of light-footed woman encounters the city and changes her life, one step at a time.

Distancing


'A tactical, science-based blueprint for managing situations clearly and objectively ... a tour-de-force' ETHAN KROSSDistance gives you perspective. Bestselling author of Turn the Ship Around! David Marquet and professor of psychology Michael Gillespie show you how to make better decisions by becoming your own coach.Be yourself. Be fully present. Be in the moment. That is the message we hear constantly. Yet, the biggest obstacle to making wiser, more successful decisions is often... ourselves. Our limited perspective biases our choices, leading us to defend past actions rather than seek better alternatives. We need to step outside our narrow view and gain an objective, fresh perspective. In other words, we need a coach.In Distancing, David Marquet and Michael Gillespie show us how to become our own coach using a powerful mental technique called psychological distancing. By practicing:Self-distancing: we can be someone else by adopting the perspective of an outside observer. Spatial distancing: we can be somewhere else by zooming out and seeing ourselves as part of a larger picture. Temporal distancing: we can be sometime else by making decisions from the vantage point of our future self.Backed by compelling scientific research, real-world examples and practical exercises, Distancing empowers you to break free from self-limiting patterns and make clearer, smarter choices. The tools are simple. The impact is profound.
