European Shi?ism
The presence of Sh? te communities in Western Europe dates to the late nineteenth century, with Britain as the primary destination for immigration, as well as notable communities developing in Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands and Scandinavia. Exploring selected encounters of Twelver Sh? te Muslims with the European West, this study examines local and transnational religious organization to assess socio-political integration. Its central thesis defines European Sh? sm through peripheral engagement and religious retention. Building on a range of language sources, interviews with Sh? te spokesmen and fieldwork in Iran, Britain, the Netherlands, and Germany, Matthijs van den Bos identifies European Sh? sm with a religious mode of engagement involving hierarchization of collective self and other identities. Sh? te parties with greater distance to high politico-religious authorities abroad are seen more likely to engage in cultural exchange with their European milieu. On one side stand ethnically varied Sh? te organizations with limited engagement of others in Europe. The other shows civic outreach, ritual transformation, and integrationist theology.

Cold War Football
A gargantuan battle for hearts and minds, the Cold War is the supreme example of a 'people's war'. But what did the 'people's game' have to do with it? From Dynamo Moscow's stormy tour of Britain in 1945 to the inaugural Women's World Cup in 1991, Tony Shaw and Alan McDougall chart the clash between capitalism and communism in ten iconic football matches. They take us across Europe, Asia, South America and Africa to uncover football's part in bolstering democracies and dictatorships and in the struggle for influence in the developing world. They show how these matches offered a rare opportunity to see what life was like on 'the other side' of the Iron Curtain, making friends of enemies but also fuelling revolution. Featuring legendary players, goals and on- and off-field controversies, this is a fascinating history of how the Cold War shaped football and how football shaped the Cold War.

Longlisted for the 2026 Brooklyn Public Library Book PrizeA LitHub most anticipated book of 2025‘Exceptionally funny and entertaining’ Katy Hessel, bestselling author of The Story of Art Without Men‘A gorgeous book on being a hater, and I inhaled this in one sitting’ StylistYears after escaping her unbearable artworld friends in New York for a new life in London, an unnamed writer finds herself once more at their dinner table for a single, hideous evening. It’s the day after the funeral of their mutual friend, a failed actress and – Eugene and Nicole, an artist-curator couple – are hosting a dinner party. If the narrator once loved and admired the couple and their important friends, she now despises them all. Most of all, however, she despises herself for being lured back to this cavernous apartment, to this hollow, bourgeois social set, for a dinner party that isn’t even being thrown in their deceased friend’s honour, but in the honour of an up-and-coming actress who is by now several hours late. As the guests sip at their drinks and await the actress’s arrival, the narrator, from her vantage point in the corner seat of a white sofa entertains herself - and us - with a silent, tender, merciless takedown. A satire about friendship, capitalism, culture, and art, Happiness and Love is the razor-sharp new novel from an exciting literary voice. ‘Bracing and funny and fiercely clever’ Orlando Whitfield, Nero-award listed author of All that Glitters‘An ecstatic performance of heightened perception’ Chris Kraus, bestselling author of I Love Dick‘Zeitgeist and timeless, cynical but not soulless. Fabulous!’ Melissa Broder, author of Milk Fed and The Pisces

Távol Louisianától
Az amerikai indián Ischate és a kreol úrihölgy, Suzette sorsa a 18. századi Louisianában fonódik össze, ám társadalmi és kulturális értelemben is egy világ választja el őket egymástól: az indián fiú bölcs harcos, ám a kreolok szemében egyszerű "vadember˝. Ezzel szemben Suzette egy vagyonos New Orleans-i kereskedő lánya, aki gyermekkorától kezdve a társadalmi, erkölcsi és illemszabályok béklyójában él. A két fiatal gyermekkori találkozása mindkettőjük életét örökre megváltoztatja, és ebben a sodró lendületű műben végigkísérhetjük, amint az évtizedek során szembenéznek azon akadályokkal, amelyeket a társadalom és a történelem eléjük gördít. A spanyol szerző, Luz Gabás Planeta-díjjal (2022) jutalmazott regénye több, mint egy szerelmi történet, hiszen a fiatalok viszontagságain keresztül bemutatja az Amerikai Egyesült Államok és Európa történelmének meghatározó időszakát - az amerikai függetlenségi háborútól a francia forradalomig -, s közben olyan fontos fogalmakról gondolkodtat el, mint a hűség, a haza és a szerelem.

Why Machiavelli Matters Now
A comprehensive exploration of Machiavelli’s life and thought – covering everything from his preoccupation with truth, fortune, and power, to his frequently bawdy poetry, love affairs, and friendships. Essential reading for anyone who wants to understand what Machiavelli really believed – and why he matters so much today. Who was Niccolo Machiavelli and why should we consider him relevant to the problems and vexations of the modern world? Stephen Bowd and Alexander Lee aim to ‘defamiliarize’ Machiavelli. Given that he is so well known, if only by name, and the subject of such grave misconceptions and prejudice, the authors set out to explain why he is not the ‘Machiavellian’ figure he is supposed to be, and that he was not just a political thinker. Examining his frequently bawdy poetry, his comedies and his love affairs and friendships, this book will lead modern readers on an exhilarating and thought-provoking journey through Machiavelli’s mind, bringing him to life and illuminating why such a seminal thinker should be of urgent interest to us today.

Experts in a Dying Field
'Offbeat, ironic, humane and hilarious, Experts in a Dying Field is an earworm you’ll be humming along to for a long time to come.' PAUL MURRAY'A wonderfully evocative novel from a major storytelling talent.’ JOSEPH O'CONNOR‘Just pure joy and pure heartbreak and GENUINE LAUGHS all the way through. I cried a few times too.’ MARINA HYDE---The Heathens thought of themselves as 'the 1000th best band of all time'. Then their tour van crashed, and one of their members died. Twenty years later, weird things are happening in Dublin, bringing the surviving members of the band together in ways none of them could have anticipated and lifting the lid on mysteries from their shared past. Experts in a Dying Field is a gloriously sharp, witty and surprising novel about friendship, secrets, the strange workings of grief and guilt, and the joyful alchemy of music, from a writer with a unique ability to access humour and deep emotion. ---'Hums with life, told with the rigour and brilliance of one of Ireland’s finest minds.
