Georgics


''A countryman cleaves earth with his crooked plough. Such is the labourof his life. So he sustains his native land ...''Virgil''s affectionate poem of the land does not admit brief excerpts, any more than the labour of the farmer can easily be shortened. His verse, descriptive and narrative, brings us the disappointments as well as the rewards of the countryman''s year-round devotion to his crops, his vines and olives, livestock great and small, and the complex society of bees. Part agricultural manual, part political poem and allegory, the Georgics'' scenes are real and vivid, and the poet-farmer Peter Fallon makes us feel the sights, sounds, and textures of the ancient Italian landscape.''the combination of truth to the words Virgil wrote, natural vernacular speech and a general at-homeness on the land make Fallon''s an inspired translation'' Seamus Heaney, Irish Times''magnificent new translation...Fallon is the perfect translator for the Georgics'' Bernard O''Donoghue, Times Literary Supplement ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.

The Scoop


ONE NEEDS A STORY. THE OTHER IS THE STORY. THE FALLOUT COULD RUIN THEM BOTH. No story sells faster than a celebrity's downfall. . . Washed-up journalist Frankie Miller is desperate. Since losing her dream job at a glossy magazine, she's been drowning in rejection letters and overdue bills while eating cereal for dinner. So, when she's offered a role at The Scoop, a notorious tabloid website run by tyrannical editor David Brown, she can't afford to say no - even if it means swallowing her pride for clicks. Besides, it's just a temporary means to an end. Nothing more. But the deeper Frankie dives into the cutthroat world of clickbait, the blurrier the line between ambition and morality becomes. And when she breaks a story that humiliates a beloved pop star, the fallout is more explosive than she ever imagined - for both of them. In an industry where reputation is currency and outrage sells, how far is Frankie willing to go - and how much is she willing to lose - to win at this ruthless game? Sharp, witty, and unflinchingly bold, The Scoop pulls back the curtain on tabloid culture and the human toll of the 24/7 news cycle, perfect for fans of Yellowface, The List and Succession. PRAISE FOR THE SCOOP:'A timely, commanding, blistering debut, this one's sure to leave a lasting mark' ASHLEY TATE'Quickly becomes tough to look away from' NATALIE SUE'Smart and savage...a devastating satire' RUTH MADIEVSKY'Snappy, fun, and set in the always-fascinating world of New York media.

Wildly different


The globe-trotting tales of five women who fought for the right to enjoy the wild places of the earth. For millennia the ‘wild’ was a place heroic men went on epic quests. Women were prevented from joining them, either through physical control or powerful myths about what would happen if they ventured beyond the city wall or village boundary. So how did women claim their place in the remote and lovely parts of our planet? In Wildly different, historian Sarah Lonsdale traces the lives of five women who fought for the right to work in, enjoy and help to save the earth’s wild places. We’ll meet Mina Hubbard, who outraged the exploration community when she stepped into a canoe in northern Labrador. Evelyn Cheesman, who became the first female keeper of insects at London Zoo. Dorothy Pilley, who shocked polite society by donning men’s climbing breeches. Ethel Haythornthwaite, who helped make the Peak District Britain’s first National Park. And Wangari Maathai, who started a movement to plant millions of trees across sub-Saharan Africa. Drawing on interviews with Sir David Attenborough, Wangari Maathai’s daughter and others, Lonsdale recounts the women’s adventures across five continents. Evocative and inspiring, this book shows how women can be ‘wildly different’. -- .

Not exactly helpful if yours doesn''t!In this essential self-help guide, Rachel Clark shares what she''s learned from her own experiences as an autistic and ADHD young person with anorexia, and how you can use it for your own recovery. She explores how eating disorders can be a coping mechanism for the stress of a neurotypical world, and how autism can both create the ideal environment for an eating disorder to develop, but also provide key tools to overcome it.

Sápadt Álmodó, Hajnali kórus - Csontszüret novellák


Sápadt Álmodó, Hajnali kórus – Két Csontszüret-történet – Samantha Shannon Csontszüret 0.5, 3.5 ÚJ, ÁTDOLGOZOTT KIADÁS A Csontszüret egy hétkötetesre tervezett disztópikus fantasyszéria, amelyből eddig öt kötet látott napvilágot. A történet 2059-ben veszi kezdetét, főszereplője Paige Mahoney, az álomjáró. A Sápadt Álmodó az első rész előtt játszódik. A Londoni Scion Citadellában elszabadult egy veszedelmes kopogószellem, és a rivális alvilági látók mindenre képesek, hogy megszerezzék. A tizenhat éves Paige számára talán ez lesz a megfelelő alkalom, hogy bebiztosítsa a helyét a leghírhedtebb mímesúr bandájában, a Hét Pecsét nevű szervezetben. A Hajnali kórus a harmadik és a negyedik könyv között játszódik. A lánynak, miután kirobbantotta a forradalmat, ki kell hevernie a bántalmakat, amiket elszenvedett. Párizsban, egy menedékházban igyekszik erőre kapni: oldalán Arcturusszal arra várnak, hogy kapcsolatba lépjen velük a Domino program, ez a Scionon belül működő kémhálózat. Paige és Arcturus előzőleg heteken át nem látták egymást, most végre együtt tölthetnek egy kis időt. A jelen tükröt tart a múltnak – de vajon mit hoz a jövő?

S pomocí věrného seržanta Chunga a dvou napravených zbojníků Ma Žunga a Ťiao Taje musí soudce Ti vyřešit nejen smrt náčelníka a zmizení mladé nevěsty, ale také odhalit tajemství zlaté sochy, které ohrožuje stabilitu celé říše. Každý jejich krok je může stát hlavu, neboť nepřítel je mnohem blíž, než si připouštějí. Robert van Gulik v tomto chronologicky prvním románu ze slavné série historických detektivek ze staré Číny sleduje zrod legendárního soudce Ti, jehož slavné případy sahají od říčních nevěstinců až po paláce nejmocnějších představitelů impéria.
