After she bottoms out in Phoenix, her sister in Los Angeles insists Lucy dog-sit for the summer. Annika's home is a gorgeous glass cube on Venice Beach, but Lucy can find little relief from her anxiety — not in the Greek chorus of women in her love addiction therapy group, not in her frequent Tinder excursions, not even in Dominic the foxhound's easy affection. Everything changes when Lucy becomes entranced by an eerily attractive swimmer while sitting alone on the beach rocks one night. But when Lucy learns the truth about his identity, their relationship, and Lucy’s understanding of what love should look like, take a very unexpected turn. A masterful blend of vivid realism and giddy fantasy, pairing hilarious frankness with pulse-racing eroticism, THE PISCES is a story about falling in obsessive love with a merman: a figure of Sirenic fantasy whose very existence pushes Lucy to question everything she thought she knew about love, lust, and meaning in the one life we have.

Why are some parts of the world so rich and others so poor? Why did the Industrial Revolution--and the unprecedented economic growth that came with it--occur in eighteenth-century England, and not at some other time, or in some other place? Why didn't industrialization make the whole world rich--and why did it make large parts of the world even poorer? In A Farewell to Alms, Gregory Clark tackles these profound questions and suggests a new and provocative way in which culture--not exploitation, geography, or resources--explains the wealth, and the poverty, of nations.Countering the prevailing theory that the Industrial Revolution was sparked by the sudden development of stable political, legal, and economic institutions in seventeenth-century Europe, Clark shows that such institutions existed long before industrialization. He argues instead that these institutions gradually led to deep cultural changes by encouraging people to abandon hunter-gatherer instincts-violence, impatience, and economy of effort-and adopt economic habits-hard work, rationality, and education.The problem, Clark says, is that only societies that have long histories of settlement and security seem to develop the cultural characteristics and effective workforces that enable economic growth. For the many societies that have not enjoyed long periods of stability, industrialization has not been a blessing. Clark also dissects the notion, championed by Jared Diamond in Guns, Germs, and Steel, that natural endowments such as geography account for differences in the wealth of nations.A brilliant and sobering challenge to the idea that poor societies can be economically developed through outside intervention, A Farewell to Alms may change the way global economic history is understood.

This pocket book starts with the essay “A great thinker or a man of action - how did Bakunin shape anarchism in the 19th century?” by Vyvian Raoul and is followed by Bakunin’s best known work the unfinished God and the State.One of us is soon to tell in all its details the story of the life of Michael Bakunin, but its general features are already sufficiently familiar. Friends and enemies know that this man was great in thought, will, persistent energy they know also with what lofty contempt he looked down upon wealth, rank, glory, all the wretched ambitions which most human beings are base enough to entertain. A Russian gentleman related by marriage to the highest nobility of the empire, he was one of the first to enter that intrepid society of rebels who were able to release themselves from traditions, prejudices, race and class interests, and set their own comfort at naught. With them he fought the stern battle of life, aggravated by imprisonment, exile, all the dangers and all the sorrows that men of self-sacrifice have to undergo during their tormented existence.A simple stone and a name mark the spot in the cemetery of Berne where was laid the body of Bakunin. Even that is perhaps too much to honor the memory of a worker who held vanities of too much to honor the memory of a worker who held vanities of that sort in such slight esteem. His friends surely will raise to him no ostentatious tombstone or statue. They know with what a huge laugh he would have received them, had they spoken to him of a commemorative structure erected to his glory they knew, too, that the true way to honor their dead is to continue their work — with the same ardor and perseverance that they themselves brought to it. In this case, indeed, a difficult task demanding all our efforts, for among the revolutionists of the present generation not one has labored more fervently in the common cause of the Revolution.

First survey of modernist and contemporary architecture and interiors in the richly layered architectural history of Santa Fe Santa Fe Modern reveals the high desert landscape as an ideal setting for bold, abstracted forms of modernist houses.Wide swaths of glass, deep-set portals, long porches, and courtyards allow vistas, color, and light to become integral parts of the very being of a house, emboldening a way to experience a personal connection to the desert landscape. The architects featured draw from the New Mexican architectural heritage - they use ancient materials such as adobe in combination with steel and glass, and they apply this language to the proportions and demands exacted by today's world. The houses they have designed are confident examples of architecture that is particular to the New Mexico landscape and climate, and yet simultaneously evoke the rigorous expressions of modernism. The vigor and the allure of modern art and architecture hearten each other in a way that is visible and exciting, and this book demonstrates the synergistic relationship between art, architecture, and the land.

Hace más de 200 años, dos hermanos de Kassel, Jacob y Wilhelm Grimm, publicaron el primer volumen de su colección de cuentos populares alemanes. Con el tiempo, las historias de su colección crecieron hasta sumar 200 cuentos de hadas y diez leyendas. Lo que en un primer momento fue un intento por preservar las tradiciones alemanas para la posteridad es hoy la colección de historias más leída después de la Biblia. De Blancanieves a La Cenicienta y de Rapunzel a Rumpelstiltskin, los hermanos Grimm legaron un canon de cuentos de hadas que se han convertido en clásicos de la literatura infantil, parte del patrimonio mundial de la UNESCO y una pieza indispensable de nuestra historia y cultura.La propia vida de Hans Christian Andersen parecía el argumento de un cuento: entre sus amigos y admiradores se encontraba Charles Dickens, y los príncipes europeos lo tenían en alta estima. Gracias a su perseverancia, talento, muchas coincidencias afortunadas y una imaginación desbordante, consiguió salir de la pobreza e inscribió su nombre en la historia de la literatura mundial. Un reino de cuento de hadas sin Andersen no sería igual sin los personajes de La reina de las nieves, La princesa y el guisante, Pulgarcita o La pequeña cerillera, o sin los muchos elementos inanimados a los que el autor dio vida: chelines de plata, agujas de zurcir y en especial su Soldadito de plomo.Las historias de los hermanos Grimm y de Andersen han inspirado a generaciones de artistas, y cada cuento incluido en este volumen ha sido interpretado de manera deslumbrante por un famoso ilustrador: leyendas como Kay Nielsen (un destacado exponente de la edad de oro de la ilustración que terminó en la década de 1920), el maestro del movimiento Arts and Crafts Walter Crane, Arthur Rackham o el artista comercial suizo Herbert Leupin. Las acompañan siluetas de publicaciones históricas y nuevas viñetas hechas especialmente para esta edición que bailan por sus páginas en un intrincado juego de sombras. Los ensayos introductorios sobre la influencia de los cuentos de los hermanos Grimm en el arte y sobre Andersen como alma y corazón del cuento de hadas moderno complementan este despliegue de fantasía junto con los breves resúmenes de cada relato y las biografías de los artistas.Este volumen doble contiene los cuentos de hadas de los hermanos Grimm por un lado y los de Hans Christian Andersen por el otro, cada uno con su propia portada. Incluye los siguientes cuentos:Hermanos Grimm:El rey rana, El lobo y las siete cabritillas, Rapunzel, Hansel y Gretel, El sastrecillo valiente, La Cenicienta, Madre Nieve, Caperucita roja, Los músicos de Bremen, Los duendecillos, Pulgarcito, La bella durmiente, Blancanieves, Rumpelstiltskin, Las tres plumas, La oca de oro, La pastora de ocas, Las doce princesas bailarinas, El dinero llovido del cielo, La liebre y el erizo, El gato con botasHans Christian Andersen:La princesa y el guisante, El ruiseñor, El porquero, El traje nuevo del emperador, Los doce de la diligencia, El valiente soldadito de plomo, La reina de las nieves, Pegaojos, El patito feo, Las flores de la pequeña Ida, La pastora y el deshollinador, La maleta voladora, La pequeña cerillera, El yesqueroSobre la serie¡TASCHEN ya tiene 40 años! Desde que iniciáramos nuestra labor de arqueólogos culturales en 1980, TASCHEN se ha convertido en sinónimo de ediciones accesibles, y ayuda a devoradores de libros de todo el mundo a crear su propia biblioteca de arte, antropología y erotismo a un precio inmejorable.

A los pinos el viento es el retrato de una de las colecciones de bonsáis más sobresalientes de Europa, la de Luis Vallejo, y un perfil del coleccionista a través de su colección. Lejos de un acercamiento desde la ciencia botánica a los ejemplares que la integran, el libro presenta los árboles desde la poética y el tiempo de su diseño y creación. Y lo hace a través de un corpus de fotografías tomado por Fernando Maquieira, al que, en el registro de la imagen, se suma el preámbulo de Carmen Ballvé, dos lenguajes para hablar de un mismo universo. Con presentación de Felipe González, los breves textos y las citas se entreveran con los árboles para incorporar la mirada de su artífice, como evocación de la experiencia o como invocación de la asociación literaria. Por otro lado, el relato de José María Parreño traza un viaje al mundo del bonsái. Por último, los cuadernos de dibujos aportan al volumen la forma de expresión más sencilla y directa del vínculo del autor con sus árboles.

Meanwhile, she's been 'training' with her fellow Apollyon Seth - though really that's just Seth's code word for some up-close-and-personal time. After every session Alex ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to her Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome.But as Alex's birthday draws near, her entire world is shattered by a startling revelation.

For Alexandria, being destined to become some kind of supernatural electrical outlet isn't exactly awesome - especially when her 'other half' is everywhere she goes. Seth's in her training room, outside her classes, and keeps showing up in her bedroom - so not cool. Their connection does have some benefits, like staving off her memories of the tragic showdown with her mother, but it has no effect on what Alex feels for the forbidden, pure-blooded Aiden.When daimons infiltrate the Covenants and attack students, the gods send furies - creatures determined to eradicate any threat to the Covenants and to the gods... and that includes Alex. If that and hordes of aether-sucking monsters weren't bad enough, a mysterious threat seems willing to do anything to neutralize Seth, even if that means forcing Alex into servitude... or killing her.

The Hematoi descend from the unions of gods and mortals, and the children of two Hematoi - pure-bloods - have godlike powers. Children of Hematoi and mortals - well, not so much. Half-bloods only have two options: become trained Sentinels who hunt and kill daimons or become servants in the homes of the pures.Seventeen-year-old Alexandria would rather risk her life fighting than waste it scrubbing toilets, but she may end up slumming it anyway. There are several rules that students at the Covenant must follow. Alex has problems with them all, but especially rule #1:Relationships between pures and halfs are forbidden.Unfortunately, she's crushing hard on the totally hot pure-blood Aiden. But falling for Aiden isn't her biggest problem - staying alive long enough to graduate the Covenant and become a Sentinel is. If she fails in her duty, she faces a future worse than death or slavery: being turned into a daimon, and being hunted by Aiden. And that would kind of suck.

''No hay nada comparable a los Alpes'', escribió el gran historiador francés Jules Michelet en 1868. En el corazón de Europa, la gigantesca cordillera alpina incluye algunos de los parajes naturales más grandiosos del mundo, como el Mont Blanc, el Jungfrau, el Cervino y sus glaciares. El turismo comenzó a finales del siglo XIX y creció enormemente en los siglos siguientes, especialmente con el auge de los deportes de invierno. Este libro ofrece un encantador recorrido por una época pretérita, cuando los primeros trenes de montaña y los ferrocarriles cremallera llevaban a hombres con pantalones de cuero y mujeres con vestidos largos hasta el pie del glaciar. Cuando los guías locales acompañaban a los turistas montados en mulas, una época en la que los primeros alpinistas eran considerados locos, y los esquiadores eran una curiosidad.A través de fotocromos, fotografías y postales en color de los siglos XIX y XX, de carteles de viajes y folletos turísticos, cruzamos puertos como Mont-Cenis, Simplon, Brenner y Gotthard. Escalamos el Mont Blanc, el Eiger, el Wetterhorn y las Dolomitas, nos maravillamos con los lagos de aguas cristalinas de Suiza, Italia, Baviera y Eslovenia, exploramos el Tirol, la Vía Mala y la Engadina, y pasamos la temporada de invierno en los grandes hoteles de Gstaad, Grindelwald, Davos, St. Moritz y Cortina. Un viaje, completado con numerosas citas de escritores de viajes, que evoca aquellos días felices de nieve prístina y pistas vírgenes.

Publisheado originalmente en two partes en 1605 y 1615 y often considereado “the first novela moderna,” Don Quixote de Miguel de Cervantes es indudablemente el libro más influencial del canon literario hispánico. En esta adaptación groundbreakeadora, el comentarista cultural Ilan Stavans y el ilustrador Roberto Weil reimaginan la masterpiece de Cervantes en ways que son a la vez faithfules y whimsicamente irreverentes.En estas páginas, Stavans y Weil payean tributo a la novela de Cervantes así como a sus resonancias complexas en los centuries desde su publicación. El dauntlesseado “mad knight” Don Quixote y su haplesseado squire, Sancho Panza, encuentran los infamosos molinos de viento, contendean con campesinos y nobles disbelieveadores, y seekean relentlesmente al amor imaginario de Don Quixote, Dulcinea. También confrontean a sus propios creadores y adaptadores―Cervantes, Salvador Dalí, Franz Kafka y los propios Stavans y Weil―y tratan de hacer sense de la locura de los drones, taxis y su propia inmortalidad. El resultado es una novela gráfica ambiciosa y compelleante que revela a Don Quixote as “un libro infinito”―una obra que reflectea el pasado, presente y futuro de la condición humana.Availeable en Inglés y Spanglish, esta adaptación inspirada y audaz de una de las great novelas ever escritas seguramente será savoreada por generaciones to come.
