And before she knows it, she's being led upstairs to an attic room she didn't know existed--a wonderful haven full of Portia's cherished items, including shelf after shelf of records. "There's a song here for every emotion--for the whole rainbow of feelings," Portia tells Bea. Then they listen together, dancing to a celebration song, laughing along with a circus-happy song, and feeling held by a song that comforts them during a thunderstorm. Bea heads home at the end of the day, excited to continue learning about herself and her world through music. Corinne Bailey Rae's "Put Your Records On" is a multi-platinum anthem about freedom and joy. Now, in this beautiful storybook, the Grammy Award-winning musician brings that empowerment and exuberance to children.

Wages for Housework
*Shortlisted for the Cundill History Prize*
What would women do with their lives if they had more time?
The riveting, untold story of a revolutionary campaign to change the way work is valued
'The women of the world are serving notice. We want wages for every dirty toilet, every indecent assault, every painful childbirth, every cup of coffee and every smile. And if we don't get what we want, we will simply refuse to work any longer!'
Across the globe in the 1970s, a network of feminists distilled their struggles into a single demand: Wages for Housework! Today, it remains a provocative idea, and an unfulfilled promise.
Here historian Emily Callaci tells the story of this campaign by exploring the lives and ideas of its key creators, tracing their wildly creative political vision over the past five decades: from the early 1970s, when Selma James, a working-class political organizer, and Mariarosa Dalla Costa, a scholar-activist, started laying the foundations of Wages for Housework in London and Italy; through philosopher Silvia Federici reframing the campaign in the context of New York City's fiscal crisis; to Wilmette Brown, lesbian poet and anti-war activist, and Margaret Prescod, community organizer, who brought the insights of Black feminism to the movement.
Drawing on new archival research and extensive interviews, Callaci takes us deep inside the heart of the movement as it reached across Europe, America, Africa and the Caribbean. For these women, the wage was more than a demand for money: it was a starting point for remaking the world as we know it, imagining potential futures under capitalism - and beyond. Then as now, Wages for Housework poses profound questions. What would it be like to live in a society that prioritizes care rather than production? How would this change our relationship with the natural world? And what would women do with their lives if they had more time?
Sayuri - Teljes gyűjtemény
Megbocsáthatatlan bűnök, egy eltörölhetetlen átok és egy ártatlan család...
A héttagú Kamiki-család hosszas kutakodás után végre rálelt álmai otthonára. Hamar be is költöznek a gyönyörű, tágas, domb tetején álló házba, ám nem sok idejük marad kiélvezni a megtalált nyugalmat. Rejtélyes, megmagyarázhatatlan éjszakai zajok riogatják, borzalmas rémálmok gyötrik őket, és a rettenet megfoghatatlan érzése teszi pokollá napjaikat, ahogy rádöbbennek: rajtuk kívül van még valaki (vagy valami) az otthonukban.
A sötét, kíméletlen jelenlét ereje napról napra fokozódik, a családnak pedig nem marad más választása - ha életben akarnak maradni, fel kell venniük a harcot a gonosz entitással, amíg még nem késő.

We Do Not Part
Like a long winter’s dream, this haunting and visionary new novel from 2024 Nobel Prize winner Han Kang takes us on a journey from contemporary South Korea into its painful history.
Beginning one morning in December, We Do Not Part traces the path of Kyungha as she travels from the city of Seoul into the forests of Jeju Island, to the home of her old friend Inseon. Hospitalized following an accident, Inseon has begged Kyungha to hasten there to feed her beloved pet bird, who will otherwise die.
Kyungha takes the first plane to Jeju, but a snowstorm hits the island the moment she arrives, plunging her into a world of white. Beset by icy wind and snow squalls, she wonders if she will arrive in time to save the bird – or even survive the terrible cold which envelops her with every step. As night falls, she struggles her way to Inseon’s house, unaware as yet of the descent into darkness which awaits her.
There, the long-buried story of Inseon’s family surges into light, in dreams and memories passed from mother to daughter, and in a painstakingly assembled archive documenting a terrible massacre on the island seventy years before.
We Do Not Part is a hymn to friendship, a eulogy to the imagination and above all an indictment against forgetting.
