An exquisitely moving story about grief, love, and family, from the global phenomenon Sally Rooney.Aside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common.Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties—successful, competent, and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father’s death, he’s medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women—his enduring first love, Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke.Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined.For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude—a period of desire, despair, and possibility, a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.

Behind nearly every item in the modern wardrobe is a first of its kind - the definitive item, often designed by a single company or brand for specialist use, on which all subsequent versions have been based (and originals of which are now collector items in the booming vintage market). The T-shirt, for example, may now be an innocuous, everyday item, but was created by American company Hanes for US Navy personnel at the turn of the 20th century and was subsequently adopted by sportsmen and bikers. Other items have been designed for sport, farm work or protection, and made their way into everyday usage. Icons of Style examines, garment by garment, the most important and famous of these products - their provenance and history, the stories of their design, the brand/company that started it all and how the item shaped the way we all dress today. As traditional definitions of men's and women's clothes are fast changing, this book combines all key garments for everyone.Inspiring images of the best examples of the garment - from the 1930s to contemporary times, from Marlene Dietrich to Mick Jagger - show the timeless beauty of these garments that are the basics of the stylish.

But behind the holly and pine boughs, secrets are about to unravel, revealing this seemingly charming English village's grim history.Ashley Smith, an American art student in London for her junior year, was planning on spending Christmas alone, but a last-minute invitation from fellow student Emma Chapman brings her to Starvewood Hall, country residence of the Chapman family. The Cotswold manor house, festooned in pine boughs and crammed with guests for Christmas week, is a dream come true for Ashley. She is mesmerized by the cozy, firelit house, the large family, and the charming village of Clevemoor, but also by Adam Chapman, Emma's aloof and handsome brother.But Adam is being investigated by the local police over the recent brutal slaying of a girl from the village, and there is a mysterious stranger who haunts the woodland path between Starvewood Hall and the local pub. Ashley begins to wonder what kind of story she is actually inhabiting. Is she in a grand romance? A gothic tale? Or has she wandered into something far more sinister and terrifying than she'd ever imagined?Over thirty years later the events of that horrific week are revisited, along with a diary from that time. What began in a small English village in 1989 reaches its ghostly conclusion in modern-day New York, many Christmas seasons later.

From the award-winning author of Weasels in the Attic, a modern fable about the world of work.Beyond the town, there is the factory. Beyond the factory, there is nothing.Within the sprawling industrial complex, three new employees are each assigned a department. There, each must focuses on a specific task: one shreds paper, one proofreads documents, and another studies the moss growing all over the expansive grounds. As they grow accustomed to the routine and co-workers, their lives become governed by their work--days take on a strange logic and momentum, and little by little, the margins of reality seem to be dissolving: Where does the factory end and the rest of the world begin? What's going on with the strange animals here? And after a while--it could be weeks or years--the three workers struggle to answer the most basic question: What am I doing here?With hints of Kafka and Beckett and unexpected moments of creeping humour, The Factory is a vivid, and sometimes surreal, portrait of the absurdity and meaninglessness of the modern workplace.

The Use of Photography recounts a passionate love affair between Annie Ernaux and the journalist and author Marc Marie, after the two met in January 2003. Ernaux had been receiving intensive chemo for breast cancer during the prior three months, and had lost all her hair from the treatments. At the end of January she had surgery, followed by radiation therapy. The affair took place in different locations and Ernaux describes how, shortly after it began, she found herself entranced each morning by the sight of clothes strewn about, chairs out of place and the remains of their last meal of the evening still on the table – and how painful it felt to put things back in order afterwards. She went and got her camera, and began to take photographs of the scenes of disarray. When she told Marc Marie what she had done, he said he had felt the same desire. Translated by Alison L. Strayer into English for the first time, The Use of Photography is an extraordinary meditation on eroticism, photography and writing, a major work by the 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate.

Una novela deslumbrante sobre los recovecos del alma humana, sobre la fe, las dudas, los engaños, los autoengaños y los deseos inconfesables. A sus setenta y dos años, Juan Cabrera vive prácticamente enclaustrado con sus libros en un pequeño piso del barrio de Argüelles. No es algo nuevo para él. Durante años estuvo confinado en un convento benedictino, del que salió con un indulto especial de exclaustración para un profeso de votos perpetuos. En el claustro ya no lograba escuchar a Dios, pero quizá su salida también se vio influenciada por la denuncia que hizo de tres novicios a los que descubrió en una situación impropia, o al menos entonces eso le pareció. Alejado de la familia, Cabrera recibe un día la visita de su sobrino Jaime, quien, poco después, propicia el encuentro entre su tío y Antón Rubial, uno de los novicios expulsados por la acusación del exmonje. Tras dejar la orden, Rubial rehízo su vida y se casó con Petri, con quien mantiene una relación complicada.Entre estos cuatro personajes se irá tejiendo una enmarañada red de medias verdades, manipulaciones, deseos de venganza y celos, con enclaustramientos voluntarios e involuntarios y una creciente tensión. Álvaro Pombo vuelve a demostrar su virtuosismo para retratar el alma humana y aborda en esta deslumbrante novela temas como la fe, las dudas, la conciencia moral, el peligro de avivar el pasado y la mirada capaz de convertir una escena acaso inocente en pecaminosa.

From the bestselling author of Memorial, a novel that will 'break your heart twice over, with sadness, sure, but more unexpectedly, with joy.' Rumaan AlamGrowing up , TJ was Cam's boy next door. When Cam needed a home, TJ's parents - Mae and Jin - took him in. Their family bakery became Cam's safe place. Until he left, and it wasn't anymore.Years later, Cam's world is falling apart. The love of his life, Kai, is gone: but his ghost keeps haunting Cam, and won't let go. And Cam's not sure he wants to let go, not sure he's ready. When he has a chance to return to his home town, to work in a gay bar clinging on in a changing city landscape, he takes it. Back in the same place as TJ, they circle each other warily, their banter electric with an undercurrent of betrayal, drawn together despite past and current drama. Family is family. But TJ is no longer the same person Cam left behind, he's had his own struggles. The quiet, low-key, queer kid, the one who stayed home, TJ's not sure how to navigate Cam - utterly cool, completely devastated and self-destructing - crashing back into his world.When things said - or left unsaid - become so insurmountable that they devour us from within, hope and sustenance and friendship can come from the most unlikely source. Nourishment has many forms: eating croissants, sitting together at a table with bowls of curry, sharing history, confronting demons, growing flowers, showing up. This is a story about how the people who know us the longest can hurt us the most, but how they also set the standard for love, and by their necessary presence, create a family.

«Aquest poema és fet de la parla de la gent que viu i treballa al Dart. Durant els darrers dos anys he estat enregistrant converses amb gent que coneix el riu. He fet servir aquests enregistraments com a models de vida per esbossar-ne els personatges, entrelligant-ne les veus per fer un mapa sonor del riu, una línia cantada des de la deu fins al mar».Oswald es va proposar transformar la veu del riu Dart a l'anglès a través de la manera com parlen els seus veïns. L’idioma d’aquestes veus no oculta la font original, que pretén modelar a l’anglès. Els versos i els ritmes de la seva parla tenen la sintaxi del riu: tensen els límits de les frases angleses a mesura que s’acosten a la parla del Dart. La poeta és una traductora humana de patrons de so inhumans, i empeny el llenguatge cap als seus orígens onomatopoètics.
