A Chorus of Ears
‘One of the most eloquent thinkers about our life in language’ – The Sunday TimesA Chorus of Ears is a series of essays on voice, lyric and the persona of the poet from one of our greatest living English poets. Denise Riley contemplates how a poet's public persona can hold more significance than their actual poetry in the modern literary world. She reflects on how prize culture can transform criticism into a beauty contest, and limit our ability to meet the lyric on its own terms. What might be discovered, Riley asks, if we liberate the poem from the person of the author? From where does its own voice spring? In allowing the poem to speak, what might we hea? ncluding a foreword by leading poet and critic Don Paterson. 'One of the great poets of our time ' – New Statesman
A Terribly Nasty Business
After achieving her lifelong dream of solving a murder, bringing a killer to justice, and proving she is not, in fact, a morbid creep, Beatrice Steele feels like everything is finally falling into place. She's traded her etiquette-obsessed community of Swampshire for the big city of London, accompanied by her ever-trusty chaperone, Miss Bolton. They've settled in a lovely neighborhood, Sweetbriar, known for its proximity to the Sweet Majestic theater, picturesque pleasure gardens, and an unfortunate infestation of flying squirrels. But Beatrice's favorite part is that Sweetbriar is also home to D.S. Investigations, the new office she opened with the prickly, annoyingly logical Inspector Drake to solve the city's brutally thrilling crimes. However, nothing is turning out how Beatrice imagined it would. Sir Huxley, famed gentleman inspector and Beatrice's former crush, is still considered the real investigator in London, so the only cases left for Beatrice and Drake are lost pets and spectacles. Not that Beatrice has much time for crime-solving, anyways, as her mother still expects her to find an eligible (rich) husband to protect their family from destitution. Beatrice is struggling to balance all the demands on her and begins to wonder if she can become a true detective in a city that feels full of false promises. That is until a string of murders thrusts Beatrice and Drake into the center of a scandal that pits the neighborhood's wealthiest against the arts community, spreading fear and chaos throughout the city. As they follow the trail through bewildering ballrooms, secretive shops, and odd operas, Beatrice must survive threats to her partnership, her business, and her place in society to break the case--before it's too late.

Örökölt családminták
A családokban generációról generációra átörökített traumás élmények átalakításának úttörő módszere
Depresszió. Szorongás. Krónikus fájdalom. Fóbiák. Kényszeres gondolatok…
Mi van, ha ezek a nehézségek nem kizárólag a saját életünk eseményeiből vagy az agyunk kémiai egyensúlyának felborulásából fakadnak? Mi van, ha a gyökereik jóval mélyebbre nyúlnak – a szüleink, nagyszüleink, sőt akár a dédszüleink történeteibe?
Az elmúlt évtizedek tudományos kutatásai egyre több bizonyítékkal szolgálnak arra, hogy a trauma öröklődhet. Akkor is hatással lehet ránk, ha az eredeti eseményekről már nem tudunk, vagy ha azokat elhallgatták. Az élmények lenyomatai tovább élhetnek bennünk. Lehet, hogy az a családtagunk, aki az eredeti traumát elszenvedte, már meghalt, vagy a történet feledésbe merült, az emlékek és az érzések azonban tovább élhetnek. Bele vannak kódolva a génjeinkbe, és felbukkannak a mindennapi nyelvhasználatunkban.
Az örökölt családi trauma kutatásának úttörőjeként Mark Wolynn több évtizede segíti klienseit abban, hogy felismerjék és feldolgozzák ezeket a láthatatlan mintázatokat. Ebben a könyvében gyakorlati módszereket, lépésről lépésre követhető eszközöket ad a kezedbe.
Megtanulhatod felismerni a visszatérő szavakban, viselkedésekben és testi tünetekben rejlő rejtett üzeneteket. A genogram – vagyis a kiterjesztett családfa – segítségével feltérképezheted a generációkon átívelő mintákat. A vizualizáció, az aktív imagináció és a belső párbeszéd eszközei pedig támogatnak abban, hogy új kapcsolatba kerülj önmagaddal, és helyreállítsd az egyensúlyt az életedben.
Ez a kötet rávilágít arra, hogy a múlt láthatatlan öröksége sokkal nagyobb hatással van érzelmi és fizikai jóllétünkre, mint korábban gondoltuk – és megmutatja az utat a valódi, mély szintű gyógyulás felé, még akkor is, ha más módszerek eddig nem hoztak tartós eredményt.
Mark Wolynn a Family Constellation Institute és az észak-kaliforniai Hellinger Intézet igazgatójaként, az örökölt családi traumák egyik legismertebb specialistája. A depresszió, a szorongás, a kényszeres gondolatok, a félelmek, pánikrohamok, krónikus fájdalmak, az önsebző viselkedés és egyéb különféle tartósan fennálló tünetek és betegségek specialistája. Az Örökölt családminták című könyvét 19 nyelvre fordították le.
The Countess
'Riveting' -- The Times'A triumph' -- David Kynaston'Lively and informative' -- Miranda Seymour'The resurrection of a remarkable woman erased from history' -- Katy Hessel'Extraordinary' -- Peter JonesThe spellbinding true story of Emily Cowper, Regency socialite turned Victorian powerbrokerEmily, Countess Cowper was stubborn, beautiful and intensely ambitious. She took Regency society by storm, captivating famous statesmen and the young Queen Victoria. Born the Hon. Emily Lamb, she was brought up at the centre of glamorous Regency high society with its duels and dissipation. Her godmother was the infamous Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire, and Lord Byron an acolyte and admirer. When her marriage to Earl Cowper soured, she took a string of lovers, eventually taming a rake: the promising, promiscuous Lord Palmerston. Emily's life resembled real life Bridgerton - she even inspired the character Cressida Cowper. But her petticoats and parties belied a steely determination. Yearning for power beyond the ballroom, she used her political genius to engineer the premierships of her brother, Lord Melbourne, and her lover, Lord Palmerston. Once in Downing Street, she acted as chief counsel, speechwriter, press officer and tireless schemer for the Whig cause - from women's rights to the eradication of slavery. By proxy she became one of the most powerful people in England and changed the course of history. But her story has never been told - until now. Written with novelistic richness and extraordinary detail drawn from thousands of intimate letters and journals. The Countess unveils the life of this exceptional woman and offers a new insight into the time in which she lived.
