Poems to Fix a F**ked Up World - Various Poets - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Poems to Fix a F**ked Up World - Various Poets - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Sometimes it''s hard to keep looking up at the stars when the gutter we''re in seems so full of sh*t. But isn''t that why we need poetry? Oscar Wilde wrote some of his best poetry when he was in prison for ''the love that dare not speak its name''. Nelson Mandela held fast to his ''unconquerable soul'' on Robben Island with the help of the words a poet wrote about his battle with tuberculosis a century before. So maybe it''s not inconceivable that the words in this little book could help you put some of the sh*t in perspective, get all the important bits of your life - like sleep, work, food, travel, love and learning - in some kind of balance, so you can go back to star-gazing again . . . Taking as its starting point the classic ''wheel of balance'' life-coach model, this beautifully packaged collection of extracts and short poems gathers wisdom old and new in a perfect gift for anyone who needs comfort in this f**ked up world of ours.''This is not a poetry book as you know it, this is a life raft.'' Emerald Street on Poems for a World Gone to Sh*t.

Our Man in New York - Henry Hemming - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Our Man in New York - Henry Hemming - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

"A revelatory and wholly fascinating work of history. Superbly researched and written with gripping fluency, this lost secret of World War II espionage finally has its expert chronicler." - WILLIAM BOYD ''Gripping and intoxicating, it unfolds like the best screenplay.'' NICHOLAS SHAKESPEARE The gripping story of a propaganda campaign like no other: the covert British operation to manipulate American public opinion and bring the US into the Second World War. When William Stephenson - "our man in New York" - arrived in the United States towards the end of June 1940 with instructions from the head of MI6 to ''organise'' American public opinion, Britain was on the verge of defeat. Surveys showed that just 14% of the US population wanted to go to war against Nazi Germany. But soon that began to change...Those campaigning against America''s entry into the war, such as legendary aviator Charles Lindbergh, talked of a British-led plot to drag the US into the conflict. They feared that the British were somehow flooding the American media with ''fake news'', infiltrating pressure groups, rigging opinion polls and meddling in US politics. These claims were shocking and wild: they were also true. That truth is revealed here for the first time by bestselling author Henry Hemming, using hitherto private and classified documents, including the diaries of his own grandparents, who were briefly part of Stephenson''s extraordinary influence campaign that was later described in the Washington Post as ''arguably the most effective in history''. Stephenson - who saved the life of Hemming''s father - was a flawed maverick, full of contradictions, but one whose work changed the course of the war, and whose story can now be told in full.

Think Like a Stoic - Ken Mogi - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Think Like a Stoic - Ken Mogi - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Japanese perspective that made The Little Book of Ikigai a worldwide bestseller meets the wisdom of the ancients. T he result is a new version of stoicism that is practical, global, future-proof and, above all, optimistic. In a world overflowing with abundance and information, the calm and clarity of stoicism has never been more necessary. In this new book, bestselling author Ken Mogi explores the ancient Greek philosophy as well as its resonance with other cultures around the world, not least his own Japanese perspective. With his expertise as a neuroscientist, Mogi uncovers the cognitive foundations of the resilience that is so central to stoicism. Rooted in science, he finds in stoicism robust coping strategies for the challenges of modern life, and ways to balance self-discipline with enjoying life's pleasures. But stoicism is also a mindset that uniquely equips us to handle the future, from global challenges such as the climate emergency to the rise and rise of AI. Thinking like a stoic, he argues, can offer us not just a path for personal growth and wisdom, but the key to the future of humanity.

Great Expectations - Vinson Cunningham - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

''A phenomenal, transfixing work; Cunningham is a singular, dazzling writer'' Bryan Washington ''A coming-of-age novel of the richest, most expansive kind, it''s a rare debut, one that feels both intimate and revelatory'' Megan Abbott ''Rarer is a debut that announces a talent like Cunningham''s'' New York Times A historic presidential campaign changes the trajectory of a young Black man''s life in the highly anticipated debut novel from one of The New Yorker''s rising stars. I''d seen the Senator speak a few times before my life got caught up, however distantly, with his, but the first time I can remember paying real attention was when he delivered the speech announcing his run for the Presidency. When David first hears the Senator from Illinois speak, he feels deep ambivalence. Intrigued by the Senator''s idealistic rhetoric, David also wonders how he''ll balance the fervent belief and inevitable compromises it will take to become the United States''s first Black president. Great Expectations is about David''s eighteen months working for the Senator''s presidential campaign. Along the way David meets a myriad of people who raise a set of questions-questions of history, art, race, religion, and fatherhood that force David to look at his own life anew and come to terms with his identity as a young Black man and father in America. Meditating on politics and politicians, religion and preachers, fathers and family, Great Expectations is both an emotionally resonant coming-of-age story and a rich novel of ideas, marking the arrival of a major new writer.

Come Back in September - Darryl Pinckney - Bog - Quercus Publishing - Plusbog.dk

WINNER OF THE JAMES TAIT BLACK PRIZE FOR BIOGRAPHY 2023 A Times Best Literary Non-Fiction Book of the Year Critic and writer Darryl Pinckney recalls his friendship and apprenticeship with Elizabeth Hardwick and Barbara Epstein and the introduction they offered him to the New York literary world. At the start of the 1970s, Darryl Pinckney arrived in New York City and at Columbia University and enrolled in Elizabeth Hardwick''s writing class at Barnard. After he graduated, he was welcomed into her home as a friend and mentee, and he became close with Hardwick and her best friend, neighbor, and fellow founder of The New York Review of Books , Barbara Epstein. Pinckney found himself at the heart of the New York literary world. He was surrounded by the great writers of the time, like Susan Sontag, Robert Lowell, and Mary McCarthy, as well as the overlapping cultural revolutions and communities that swept New York: the New Wave in film, rock, and writing; the art of Felice Rosser, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Lucy Sante, Howard Brookner, and Nan Goldin; the influence of feminism on American culture and literature; the black arts movement confronted by black feminism; and New Negro veterans experiencing the return of their youth as history. Pinckney filtered the avant-garde life he was exposed to downtown and the radical intellectual tradition of The Review through the moral values he inherited and adapted from abolitionist and Reconstruction black culture.In Come Back in September , Pinckney recalls his introduction to New York and the writing life. The critic and novelist intimately captures this revolutionary, brilliant, and troubled period in American letters. Elizabeth Hardwick was not only the link to the intellectual heart of New York, but also a source of continual support and inspiration-the way she worked, her artistry, and the beauty of her voice. Through his memories of the city and of Hardwick, we see the emergence and evolution of Pinckney himself: as a young man, as a New Yorker, and as one of the essential intellectuals of our time.
