Az álom
„Ebből a könyvből kiderül, hogyan vált hétszer is valóra az álmom. De azt is elmesélem, hányszor bizonyult elérhetetlennek számomra. A futball sok mindenben hasonlít az élet más területeihez: az ember a legtöbbször nem győz. Remélem, elég szerény vagyok ahhoz, hogy megértsem, időnként a vereségből lehet a legtöbbet tanulni. Amikor viszont az ember mindenkit legyőz, az az érzés semmihez sem hasonlítható.” Carlo Ancelotti mind az öt európai topligában nyert bajnoki címet, olyan csapatoknál dolgozott, mint az AC Milan, a Juventus, a Paris Saint-Germain, a Bayern München, a Chelsea és a Real Madrid. De nemcsak ez teszi őt különlegessé kortársai között, hanem az is, hogy minden rekordot megdöntött a Bajnokok Ligájában: hétszer emelhette a magasba a trófeát, kétszer játékosként, ötször pedig edzőként. Az álom című kötetből kiderül, miért rajong annyira Carlo a világ legértékesebb klubtrófeájáért, és az is, mi kell ahhoz, hogy valaki ennyire sikeres legyen a nemzetközi porondon. Gyermekkori álmáról, a nagy meccsekről, klasszis játékosokról és az egyes szezonok kulcspillanatairól egyaránt mesél az olasz mester, aki betekintést enged a napi munkába, és belülről mutatja meg nekünk a Bajnokok Ligája csodáját.

Vocal Break
A dazzlingly original reassessment of the power and plurality of women's singing voices by the critically acclaimed author of Art Monsters and Scaffolding
'It took me ten years to go from shy young girl to punk rocker, if I'd had this book I'd have got there much quicker' Viv Albertine
For millennia, women's raised voices have been heard as unruly, uncivilized, dangerous. Women singing were cast as sirens: mythical creatures who lured sailors to their death.
In Vocal Break, Lauren Elkin seamlessly blends memoir, feminist manifesto and cultural history to explore a plurality of female singing voices - and how women have used them to defy convention, genre, capitalism, racism and sexism. Drawing on her own experiences training as a young soprano in the 1990s, Elkin reflects on the way power and identity shape our voices, focusing on the women who most excited her when she was learning to sing.
A vocal break refers to the place where the voice shifts from lower to higher registers and this is a book about what kind of meanings, and sounds, can be made there. Immersing readers in an eclectic soundscape, from musicals and pop music to art punk, what follows is a full-throated tour of women's voices, including Édith Piaf, Maria Callas, Cyndi Lauper, Kathleen Hanna, Tori Amos, PJ Harvey, Beyoncé, FKA Twigs and Billie Eilish.
Reflecting on what makes women's singing so powerful - to the point where others feel the need to control or manipulate it - Vocal Break is a joyous call to arms, a siren call:
Girls to the front: NOW.

Oldenland
'Discover the secret to thriving in old age' Telegraph'In front of me is an adventure with old age as my companion, my shadow and confederate, maybe my friend.'Old age is a country, and we need to learn to walk through it. And that's just what Roger Clough, former Professor of Social Care, lifelong hill walker, and current resident of 'Oldenland' spends his time doing. Where he used to study the terrain of ageing like a scientist, now he understands it as a farmer might, walking its contours every day from his retirement village in the Peak District, while still negotiating the physical peaks and troughs of the area. Whilst there are a lot of books that cover the topic of 'how to have a good death', there is little that offers us advice on the time period that comes before that. How do we learn to actually be old? How do we spend our later years in a meaningful way that makes sense of who we've been and who we are now? Not in blithely positive denial in the face of our physical and cognitive decline, or overtaken with regret of a life that's running down the clock, but empowered to not lose who we are; to say 'I am still me'. And, if we have not yet arrived at its borders, how can we better understand those who live there, and better prepare ourselves for a future when we will become citizens to? ritten over 25 years and innumerable journeys, Oldenland is a unique and moving companion to the experiences of old age, and how to make it count. 'Profound and reflective . . . a truly valuable addition to the conversation about ageing in our greying society' Country Squire'Courageous, beautiful and very moving' Jamie Jauncey, author of Don Roberto
