Pet Shop Boys Volume
Marking the fortieth anniversary of Please, the duo's first album release, the instant Sunday Times bestseller Pet Shop Boys Volume presents their entire visual output to date in a contemporary literary format.
Pet Shop Boys - Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe - are the most successful duo in the history of pop music. Three-time Brit Award winners and six-time Grammy nominees, they have sold more than 50 million records worldwide, including No. 1 hits such as 'West End girls', 'It's a sin', and 'Always on my mind', and platinum-selling albums Please, Actually, and Very.
Uniquely spanning the worlds of music, art, film, theatre, design, and fashion, Pet Shop Boys have forged an identity as unforgettable as their sound. From the seminal graphic design of their record sleeves to their groundbreaking videos and innovative stage shows, they have set the bar for the visual presentation of pop.
Celebrating the fortieth anniversary of the release of their first album in 1986, Pet Shop Boys Volume is the definitive retrospective of the duo's career. Expanding upon Pet Shop Boys Catalogue, published two decades ago, it presents their entire visual output to date, year by year. Sleeve artworks and packaging, stills from every video, film, and performance, stage sets and costume designs, photoshoots, publications, and even Christmas cards all feature, as does every collaboration with luminaries including Mark Farrow, Wolfgang Tillmans, Martin Parr, Bruce Weber, Sam Taylor-Johnson, Derek Jarman, Scott King, Zaha Hadid, Tom Scutt, and Es Devlin.
Concise commentaries by Chris Heath and Philip Hoare provide illuminating insights into the genesis of each project. Hoare's original introduction is accompanied by a new introduction from Libby Sellers who considers the importance of Pet Shop Boys within the history of design, while a new foreword by Jeremy Deller reflects on the enduring impact of their music and image.
With a jacket designed by Farrow and a new conversation between Heath, Tennant, and Lowe, Pet Shop Boys Volume is a visual feast and a sumptuous tribute to four decades of creative innovation.
Unanxious
Now in paperback! A book for overthinkers by an overthinker. Learn to start living a life you create—no longer burdened by the need to numb yourself from feelings of anxiety and burnout—through insightful stories, journal prompts, and down-to-earth advice from artist and international best-selling author of Unlearn, Humble The Poet. "3 PAGES IN, YOU'LL FEEL 1,000 LBS LIGHTER."— Jay Shetty, #1 New York Times Best-Selling Author“Life doesn’t begin after the obstacles, life is the obstacles, and we have to unlearn the idea that we need, or would even want, a life free of chaos, stress, and anxiety. We grow from facing challenges and exploring our limits.” This book is for the overthinkers struggling with overwhelm, burnout, and anxiety. If that’s you—sipping from a half-empty glass and staring at your phone on the sidelines of your own life—then this book will remind you that you are not alone and share tools to change your life (and your mind). Unanxious encourages readers to face their own stressors and triggers head-on with research-backed techniques and journal prompts. Stories from the author’s recent lessons in facing fears by pushing his own boundaries—from ice baths, hot yoga, and ayahuasca journeys to moving to a new city and forging meaningful connections with family and friends—inspire and empower you to stop numbing and avoiding, and start embracing the discomfort and doing what you want to do. With a beginner’s mindset approach and a vulnerable sensibility, Humble walks alongside you as you journey inward, learning from his mistakes and delivering words of wisdom less like a sage on a mountaintop and more like your most introspective friend.

Systémy něhy
Nepodobá se někdy lidský život mechanismu? A kolik něhy se může skrývat ve stroji?
Mladá pianistka Ada Fischerová má před sebou zářnou kariéru, jádro její existence je však vyhaslé. Když byla malá, vzal ji otec na výstavu automatů — samohybných figurín, zdánlivě nadaných vlastní vůlí, ale ve skutečnosti stále opakujících jediné naprogramované gesto. Tento zážitek na Adu silně zapůsobil — jako by spatřila memento celého svého budoucího života.
Co vlastně sleduje svou cílevědomostí? Nesnaží se jen zavděčit mrtvému otci? Jeho ztrátou se v ní cosi nenapravitelně porouchalo. Jediný dlouhodobý „milostný vztah“ udržuje se svým hudebním nástrojem a jako by se sama pomalu stávala strojem, automatem plnícím svou jedinou smutnou funkci.
Adin příběh zrcadlí osudy lidí, kteří se také oddali nejrůznějším systémům — hudbě, šachovnici, algoritmu. Jako vynálezce metronomu Johann Nepomuk Mälzel, jako skladatel a pianista Alexandr Nikolajevič Skrjabin nebo jako Adin milenec Hans.

Ahogy az uralkodó parancsai egyre véresebbé és kegyetlenebbé válnak - a lány pedig kénytelen elárulni és bántani a hozzá közel állókat - rájön, hogy a szörnyeteg, akit szolgál, talán csak alattvalója egy még nagyobb szörnyetegnek...
Miközben a világ, amelyet ismert, összeomlani készül, a volt táncos kénytelen szövetséget kötni Illian testvérével és legnagyobb ellenségével, Kelet hírhedt királyával.

Empire and Nation in the City
To curb the influence of minority populations and "outside enemies," the Ottoman government implemented new and experimental Tanzimat reforms within the empire’s center and provincial regions. By the 1860s, the city of Rusçuk in present-day Bulgaria and capital of the Ottoman Danube province became a test case for this expansive reform movement within an urbanizing and contested peripheral landscape. In Empire and Nation in the City, Mehmet Çelik traces how the Danube province and Rusçuk, in particular, experienced a series of swift political transitions from a "modernized" Ottoman administration, to a Russian provisional government, and finally to a Bulgarian nation-state. Çelik examines the transformative effects of each political system, arguing that Bulgarian nationalism was not a uniform ideology, but a flexible and mutable one that engaged multiple loyalties—Bulgarian and Ottoman among them. To understand these competing loyalties, he explores the diverse religious and multiethnic makeup of Rusçuk and the multifaceted responses to imperial control, nationalist sympathies, and political movements. Rather than assess Ottoman rule and Bulgarian nationhood as separate periods, Çelik bridges these moments to understand the continuity of Ottoman reforms within a burgeoning Bulgarian nation.

Bodies of Work
A chilling supernatural revenge novella from the acclaimed author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes. Perfect for fans of Joe Hill and Delilah S. Dawson. At sixty-six years old, Winston Kemper has always been a nonentity. No one notices him. His simple existence barely registers for those who come into contact with him. Some call him feeble-minded. He is a janitor at the local church, a groundskeeper by default, and that's it. No friends, no family. When he's done with work, he returns home-a remote, single room apartment located above a garage-and that is where his true work begins. Winston Kemper is a collector of voices, and his magnum opus-The Butterfly Girls-is a sprawling epic of untapped imagination. It has no single canvas, no particular frame. It is everywhere-scribbled on the walls, the floor, and countless notebooks. Winston is creating a fantasia which exists in words, images and blood. As part of his 'art' he has been murdering forgotten women. Poor souls who slip through the cracks of society, who no one's looking for. Mothers, sisters, daughters to someone, but no more. Winston takes their lives, their voices. But now he can hear them. They whisper to him. They talk of revenge. Winston Kemper might not believe in ghosts, but he is about to learn they are very real. And they are very, very angry.
