Pinen
A fierce, tender collection of stories about the lives, traumas, and dreams of Mapuche youth in modern-day Chile.Jesús, Valeska, Yajaira, and Ale are some of the vivid characters that inhabit the stories told in Pinen , a book that casts an unflinching gaze on the stark margins of urban life. Within its pages unfold the bullet-ridden death of a big shot from the blocks; the fraught, often violated sexuality of women in a displaced community; the unwavering bond between two friends navigating the waria ; the toxicity that seeps through youth and the distances that inevitably come with growing up; and, finally, a fierce declaration of love to the clandestine spirit of a brother. These are young lives that drift through the many peripheries of the city carrying a hope as immense as the injustice that defines their days.The stories that make up Pinen invite the reader into an intimate, often overlooked space – those small, enclosed rooms where the everyday tragedies of the many silently unfold. With brutal realism and lyrical restraint, Daniela Catrileo renders these acts of courage and violence with masterful precision, granting voice and presence to those rarely seen in literature.

Muž, který se bál žít
Co kdyby vás nejvíc nebrzdily okolnosti, ale vlastní strach? Muž, který se bál žít je silný příběh o člověku, který si uvědomí, že pouhé přežívání není život. Uvězněný v jistotách, které dávno ztratily smysl, se rozhodne udělat radikální krok – vydává se na Camino de Santiago, kde chce najít odpovědi na otázky, před nimiž dosud utíkal.
Každý kilometr této cesty se stává nejen fyzickou výzvou, ale především výletem do vlastního nitra. Setkání s druhými poutníky, samota, únava i nečekané okamžiky porozumění ho nutí přehodnotit minulost, strach i představy o budoucnosti. Postupně zjišťuje, že skutečná změna nečeká v cíli, ale v odvaze vyrazit.
Tento inspirativní román není jen příběhem o putování, ale o hledání smyslu života, lásky a schopnosti vystoupit z komfortní zóny. Je to kniha, která čtenáře zasáhne, povzbudí a připomene jim, že žít naplno není samozřejmost – je to vědomé rozhodnutí.

The Good Pornographer
Walace Weiss, a famous fantasy novelist struggling with drug addiction, sets himself on a twofold quest: to finish his first book in more than a decade and, like the immortal elves of his stories, to try to remember what, in his long life, he should not have forgotten. While many have come to view Walace as a bad influence on children, literature, and himself, his impact sweeps across worlds both fantastic and real, leading to his establishing a new kingdom in his neglected McMansion, Summerheim. The result is a mock-epic in rehabilitation, starring such friends and enemies as Cal, Walace’s dealer and private jester; Dragon, a porn star turned guidance counselor; Epiphany, a lunch lady and stripper in recovery; her son, Tuffy, planning everyone’s funerals at age nine; Jackal, newly sober and in touch with his emotions for the first time; and Wolf, Walace’s socially withdrawn twin brother and reluctant doppelgÄnger. Brian Bouldrey piles on the laughs and absurdity alongside dollops of humanity. With brilliant recklessness, he praises and pokes fun at genres, conventions, fandoms, and critics, offering a Deadpool-like exploration of an upside-down world filled with epic quests, epic mistakes, and epic characters.

Straighten Up, Girls and Boys
This illuminating read bridges education history with contemporary efforts to create inclusive, equitable schools In Straighten Up, Girls and Boys, acclaimed historian and educator Jackie M. Blount exposes the hidden history of how American schools have carefully shaped and policed gender and sexuality—affecting every student and educator, past and present. With clarity and compassion, she invites readers not only to understand these forces, but to take action for positive change in their own school communities. Drawing on centuries of school design, hiring practices, and classroom curriculum, Blount uncovers how seemingly neutral decisions—from the layout of restrooms to textbooks and teacher roles—have been used to enforce binary gender norms and rigid expectations around sexuality. She explores the implications for both students and educators, highlighting moments of resistance and progress, but also the persistence of exclusion and harm. Through vivid historical storytelling and fresh analysis, Blount connects the dots between age-old anxieties and today's most pressing debates around LGBTQ issues in schools. This book empowers educators with the knowledge and historical context needed to question entrenched practices and build more supportive school cultures. Encouraging both critical reflection and practical action, Blount's work is a vital resource for anyone committed to fostering respect and opportunity for every member of the school community.

Paper America
Paper america: New & Selected Poems gathers the poetic vision of Texas Poet Laureate Emmy Pérez, a voice rooted in the landscapes and communities of the Texas–Mexico border. Drawing from her acclaimed collections Solstice and With the River on Our Face, alongside powerful new work, Pérez offers poems that confront the realities of immigration, border walls, cultural invisibility, and violence, while celebrating resilience, motherhood, and the enduring ties of family and heritage. Writing from McAllen and the Rio Grande Valley, Pérez continues the legacy of Gloria Anzaldúa and Chicana/Latina writers who turned la frontera into a literary ground of strength and survival. Whether she is memorializing the children of Uvalde, reflecting on the river that sustains border communities, or capturing everyday encounters in classrooms and neighborhoods, her lines of poetry are precious—each one crafted with compassion, clarity, and urgency. With Whitmanesque scope yet firmly grounded in Mexican American identity and borderlands experience, Pérez’s poetry bridges the personal and the political, reminding readers of the power of words to bear witness, resist injustice, and cultivate hope. Paper america is both an introduction to one of Texas’s most vital poets and a career-spanning testament to the necessity of art in difficult times.
How to Start
'A model of real, grounded, hard-headed optimism in these days of crisis and anxiety – useful not only for new graduates but for all of us' Oliver Burkeman, bestselling author of Four Thousand Weeks Jodi Kantor’s ground-breaking reporting has toppled media magnates, sparked reform worldwide and foretold many of the unsettling changes we see in the workplace today. But before all of this, Kantor was kicked off her college newspaper. Society expects perfection, but Kantor knows those first professional steps are often rocky. She also knows that younger generations today are facing new and frightening terrain, with political upheaval, skyrocketing costs of living and the unknowns of AI. Kantor casts aside platitudes and false hope to offer tangible help. Work is how we spend much of our time. It’s our engine of progress: how cancer therapies are invented, political campaigns won, thrilling art created and matched with an audience. Instead of letting cynicism take over, Kantor identifies two principles to help young people discover their life’s work: craft and need. By pairing the two, they can navigate tough, sensitive choices: how to think about money. How much risk to take on. When to buck what others are saying. Powerful and provocative, How to Start is a statement of faith for young people to keep in their back pocket as they make their way through uncertain times, and offers wisdom, strategy and a set of aspirations to launch their careers and last their whole lives.
