A House in Japan
A House in Japan explores the home as a space where ideas of dwelling are constantly reimagined. In a culture shaped by precision and restraint, domestic projects become sites of quiet experimentation. These houses privilege clarity over excess, intent over display. Rigorous yet flexible, they adapt to daily rhythms while proposing fresh ways of living. The book reveals how Japanese homes, understated yet radical, show that even the everyday can be transformed into something unexpected.
The Woman in the Water
'Unputdownable' JOSEPH O'CONNOR'A roller coaster read' LIZ NUGENTTHEY WERE BEST FRIENDS. NOW THEY ARE MURDERER AND WITNESS. At the heart of the classic novel Rebecca lies a mystery ... Pearl Day has always lived in the background - companion to her childhood friend, the dazzling and unpredictable Lady Eleanor Nicholson. Their bond was forged at Alderleigh, Eleanor's crumbling country estate, but now they share a sleek London home where Eleanor's life of indulgence is spiralling into chaos. When Eleanor shoots her lover in a drunken rage, Pearl becomes the key witness in a scandalous murder trial. But she knows more than she's revealed - and with Eleanor behind bars, she sees a chance to escape her quiet desperation. Their connection, once rooted in friendship, is now warped by grief, envy and power. And Eleanor's reach is long. Set between 1930s London and the windswept Cornwall coast, this taut, gothic thriller dares to answer one of literature's abiding questions: in Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca, who is the woman in the water?'Dark, twisty and gripping' SAM BLAKE

Deficit
How can we create a better future - one that truly prioritises health and happiness?
For too long, economic thinkers have left out acts of care - written off as 'women's work' for centuries - from their calculations. The result? Terrible real-world consequences today: crumbling public services, struggling schools and care systems on the brink of collapse.
In Deficit, prominent Danish feminist Emma Holten reveals how and why this happened, and argues that the things that matter - doing homework with your child, checking in on loved ones, talking to a
colleague who doesn't seem well - might seem inconsequential, but are in fact the building blocks of the economy. Urgent and incisive, this is a call to rethink the economic value of care.
'One of the most important feminist voices of the 21st century' - Sofie Hagen

A Mannok
Az 1974-ben született német irodalomtörténész könyve dokumentumokra épülő, különleges családregény, Thomas Mann családjának élet- és kortörténete az 1920-as évek elejétől egészen a huszonegyedik század kezdetéig. Thomas Mann 1905-ben vette feleségül a dúsgazdag müncheni famíliából származó Katia Pringsheimet, és 1919-ig hat gyermeke - három fia és három lánya - született tőle.
Tilmann Lahme a legidősebb gyermekek, Erika és Klaus kamaszkorától követi nyomon a családtagok külön-külön is regénybe illően fordulatos, a német történelemmel szorosan összefonódó és sok szempontból tragikus sorsát. Kronologikus rendben, évről évre, a párhuzamos életrajzok módszerével halad.
A Mann-családban mindenki írt, ha mást nem, emlékezéseket, de mindenki az apa nyomasztó árnyékában. Publikált szövegeik mellett Lahme ismeretlen levelek, naplók és feljegyzések százait is áttanulmányozta, és bőségesen idéz belőlük. A tényeket és a dokumentumokat beszélteti, ő maga nem fűz hozzájuk értelmező, minősítő kommentárokat. Éppen ezek a tények oszlatnak el azonban olyan legendákat, amelyeket elsősorban a családtagok maguk híreszteltek el magukról, így többek közt a politikai tisztánlátás és következetesség illúzióját, valamint a családi harmónia ködét.
Dinoszaurusz-menhely 2.
Egyetlen hiba fenekestül felforgatta a dinoszauruszok sorsát.
Amikor fény derült arra, hogy a dinoszauruszok mégsem pusztultak ki teljesen, egy csapásra elvarázsolták az emberiséget. Egészen addig tartott a láz, amíg egy katasztrofális baleset a kihalás szélére nem sodorta a dinómániát... Kaidou, aki saját szemével látta az eseményeket, végre megnyílik és elmeséli mi történt, így az újonc Suma Suzume jobban rálát a tragédiára és munkatársa múltjára, mint valaha is hitte volna.
De persze a lánynak akad más dolga is. Amikor épp nem a sötét múlttal foglalkozik, jöhet a válságkezelés, egy piciny Troodon felnevelése vagy egy szépkorú T-rex születésnapi partija... a Dinolandben egyetlen nap sem unalmas!
A teljesen egyedi, nagy sikert aratott manga-sorozat megalkotásában a mangaka Itaru Kinoshita segítségére volt Dr. Shin-ichi Fujiwara paleontológus is, aki a dinoszauruszokkal kapcsolatos tudományos háttérre figyelt, így izgalmasan, de egyben tudományos alapossággal bemutatva láthatjuk a dinók és a kihívásokkal küzdő rezervátum hétköznapjait.

Mythica
Award-winning classicist and historian Emily Hauser takes readers on an epic journey to uncover the astonishing true story of the real women behind ancient Greece’s greatest legends, and the real heroes of those ancient epics, Homer's Iliadand Odyssey . . .
Contrary to perceptions built up over three millennia, ancient history is not all about men – and it's not only men's stories that deserve to be told.
In Mythica Emily Hauser tells, for the first time, the extraordinary stories of the real women behind some of the western world’s greatest legends. Following in their footsteps, digging into the history behind Homer’s epic poems, piecing together evidence from the original texts, recent astonishing archaeological finds and the latest DNA studies, she reveals who these women – queens, mothers, warriors, slaves – were, how they lived, and how history has (or has not – until now) remembered them.
A riveting new history of the Bronze Age Aegean and a journey through Homer’s epics charted entirely by women – from Helen of Troy, Briseis, Cassandra and Aphrodite to Circe, Athena, Hera, Calypso and Penelope – Mythica is a ground-breaking reassessment of the reality behind the often-mythologized women of Greece’s greatest epics, and of the ancient world itself as we learn ever more about it.
