This Land presenta una sátira a fuego lento del sueño americano mientras se topa con la realidad del cambio climático.This Land es un mural épico creado por el artista neoyorquino David Opdyke a partir de postales estadounidenses antiguas que luego trató con desconcertantes intervenciones pintadas. Lo que al principio parece una vista panorámica a vista de pájaro de un idílico valle alpino se revela, tras un examen más detenido, como una serie de escenas y viñetas conectadas. A través de más de quinientas postales, cada una de las cuales representa una porción distinta de la cultura estadounidense idealizada (plazas de ciudades, carreteras de montaña, calles principales y sedes de condado), las alteraciones mordaces y emocionalmente discordantes de Opdyke se vuelven gradualmente evidentes.En esta remodelación profética, los bosques están en llamas, los tornados pasan de una tarjeta a la siguiente, un barco de vapor es tragado entero por una especie de nueva megafauna, las ranas caen como granizo bíblico del cielo. Las respuestas humanas forman una cacofonía de deseos y demandas, pánico y negación.Las imágenes se ven animadas a su vez por la vívida y astuta mezcla de perfil artístico e interpretación crítica de Lawrence Weschler.

Lisbon's charm is legendary, but its vibrant 2,000-year history is not widely known, from its Roman legacy to its centuries under Moorish rule. Its journey from port town to Portugal's capital was not always smooth sailing--in 1755 the city was devastated by the largest earthquake ever to strike modern Europe, followed by a catastrophic tsunami and a six-day inferno that turned sand to glass.Barry Hatton unearths these forgotten memories in a vivid account of Lisbon's colourful past and present, bringing to life the 1147 siege during the Iberian reconquista, the assassination of the king, the founding of a republic and the darkness of a modern dictatorship. He reveals the rich, international heritage of Portugal's metropolis--the gateway to the Atlantic and the unrivalled Queen of the Sea.

In this extraordinary essay, Virginia Woolf examines the limitations of womanhood in the early twentieth century. With the startling prose and poetic licence of a novelist, she makes a bid for freedom, emphasizing that the lack of an independent income, and the titular room of ones own, prevents most women from reaching their full literary potential. As relevant in its insight and indignation today as it was when first delivered in those hallowed lecture theatres, A Room of Ones Own remains both a beautiful work of literature and an incisive analysis of women and their place in the world. This Macmillan Collectors Library edition of A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf features an afterword by the British art historian Frances Spalding. Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collectors Library is a series of beautiful gift editions of much loved classic titles. Macmillan Collectors Library are books to love and treasure.

In 2018, without any plan or agenda for what might happen next, Patti Smith posted her first Instagram photo: her hand with the simple message “Hello Everybody!” Known for shooting with her beloved Land 250 Camera, Smith started posting selfies with her phone, portraits of her kids, her radiator, her boots, and her Abyssinian cat, Cairo. Followers felt an immediate affinity with these miniature windows into Smith’s world, her daily coffee, the books she’s reading, the graves of beloved heroes: William Blake, Dylan Thomas, Sylvia Plath, Simone Weil, and Albert Camus. Over the days and months, a coherent story of a life devoted to art took shape in the extraordinarily personal photographs that chart Smith’s passions, devotions, obsessions, and whims. Original to this book are vintage photographs: anniversary pearls, a mother’s keychain, and a husband’s Mosrite guitar. Here, too, are photos from Smith's archives of life on and off the road, train stations, obscure cafés, a notebook always nearby. In wide-ranging yet intimate daily notations, Smith shares dispatches from her travels around the world.
