* #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER * MORE THAN 3 MILLION COPIES SOLD! A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life. Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income. In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly, she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”), Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame, and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande, her mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants. Told with refreshing candor and dark humor, I’m Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of shampooing your own hair.

I'm Glad My Mom Died

Comedian Iain Stirling is best known as the brilliantly funny voice of the BAFTA-award winning smash hit Love Island. Despite his many accolades, and his mum telling him he’s her ‘special little soldier’ every day, Iain still struggles with everyday adult life. What a textbook millennial. From the brilliantly funny voice behind the BAFTA-winning smash hit Love Island comes a scrutinising dissection of millennial life, giving the finger to ‘adulthood’ (whatever that means) along the way. Throughout life millennials have been taught that they are perfect and should live a perfect life. They’ve been told, whatever happens, don’t screw up. So is it any wonder they have acquired an image of being self-obsessed, work-shy, mollycoddled egomaniacs? Iain argues that beneath this facade is a misunderstood generation with a crippling fear of failure. And it’s time for this to change. Provocative and full of his razor-sharp wit, Not F*cking Ready to Adult is Iain’s guide to what life is really like for millennials and how they can navigate it better.

New York Times Bestseller ""There is no writer quite like Dolly Alderton working today and very soon the world will know it.” —Lisa Taddeo, author of #1 New York Times bestseller Three Women “Dolly Alderton has always been a sparkling Roman candle of talent. She is funny, smart, and explosively engaged in the wonders and weirdness of the world. But what makes this memoir more than mere entertainment is the mature and sophisticated evolution that Alderton describes in these pages. It’s a beautifully told journey and a thoughtful, important book. I loved it.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love and City of Girls The wildly funny, occasionally heartbreaking internationally bestselling memoir about growing up, growing older, and learning to navigate friendships, jobs, loss, and love along the ride When it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming an adult, journalist and former Sunday Times columnist Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, finding a job, getting drunk, getting dumped, realizing that Ivan from the corner shop might just be the only reliable man in her life, and that absolutely no one can ever compare to her best girlfriends. Everything I Know About Love is about bad dates, good friends and—above all else— realizing that you are enough. Glittering with wit and insight, heart and humor, Dolly Alderton’s unforgettable debut weaves together personal stories, satirical observations, a series of lists, recipes, and other vignettes that will strike a chord of recognition with women of every age—making you want to pick up the phone and tell your best friends all about it. Like Bridget Jones’ Diary but all true, Everything I Know About Love is about the struggles of early adulthood in all its terrifying and hopeful uncertainty.

Everything I Know About Love

Una relación que comenzó con intensa pasión y ternura se convirtió en controladora, humillante y años de abuso emocional. Tenía un buen trabajo, dos hijos maravillosos y muchos amigos. Sin embargo, estaba tan sometida que perdí mi brújula interior. Por fuera aparecíamos como una pareja feliz, una mujer independiente y un hombre cariñoso. Juntos construimos un fuerte muro contra el mundo exterior, e incluso mis seres queridos no tenían idea de lo que realmente estaba sucediendo detrás de escena. Esta es mi historia personal de cómo fue vivir con un hombre que eventualmente me derrumbó por completo. Es una historia sobre el infierno que llamé amor.

El infierno que llamé amor

Tras el fenómeno editorial de Por si las voces vuelven, Ángel Martín regresa a las librerías con un libro íntimo e impactante —pero no exento de humor— sobre todo aquello que le ayudó a rehacerse y mantener la cordura, tras superar su brote psicótico. Desde que sufrí un brote psicótico y me ingresaron dos semanas en un psiquiátrico por escuchar voces que no podía controlar, presto una atención milimétrica a cualquier cosa que suceda dentro de mi cabeza. Cuando empezaba a salir del fondo del pozo en el que estuve, lo único que me importaba era descubrir qué podía hacer para recuperarme y estar bien. Pero cuando lo conseguí, mientras todo el mundo se alegraba, me di cuenta de que el reto en realidad no terminaba con volver a estar de pie. El verdadero reto era no volver a caerme. Y como desde que logré rehacerme no he vuelto a tener ninguna caída que me haya hecho volver al hospital, he pensado que igual te interesaba saber qué carajo estoy haciendo para mantenerme. ¿Te cuento ahora un secreto? Remontar después de que algo te parta en dos es solo el principio de la historia. Así que, si estás tratando de graduar tus emociones, apagar tus miedos o bajar el volumen de tus voces, quizá te sirva este consejo: intenta colocarte detrás del ruido.

WINNER OF AUDIOBOOK OF THE YEAR AT THE BRITISH BOOK AWARDS Read by the author, Patric Gagne. 'Deliciously wicked and insightful.' - The Guardian 'Addictively page-turning.' - The Telegraph 'Thought-provoking and surprisingly life-affirming.' - Cosmopolitan Sociopath: A Memoir is the astoundingly honest true story of a life lived on the edge of the law, and a fascinating account of one woman’s battle to understand her diagnosis. Jaw-dropping, moving and illuminating, it will challenge everything you thought you knew about sociopathy. 'Your friends would probably describe me as nice. But guess what? I can't stand your friends. I'm a liar. I'm a thief. I'm highly manipulative. I don't care what other people think. I'm capable of almost anything.' From stabbing elementary school classmates with pencils to stealing car keys from fellow frat party guests and joyriding around her college town, to breaking and entering, even stalking, Patric Gagne doesn’t hold back when it comes to describing the behaviour that, eventually, made her realize she is a sociopath. But her discovery forced her to question the official descriptions of sociopathy. After all, she had a plan for her life, had nurtured close relationships and was doing her best (most of the time) to avoid harming others. While her darker impulses warred against her attempts to live a settled, loving life with her partner, Patric began to wonder – was there a way for sociopaths to integrate happily into society? And could she find it before her own behaviour went a step too far? 'Surprising, thoughtful and deeply personal.' – Pandora Sykes 'Arresting and addictive.' - The Times 'She is compelling, like a movie character – a sociopath who’s beautiful, warm and funny, articulate and charming' - The Guardian

Si esto es un hombre, libro que inaugura la trilogía que Primo Levi dedicó  a los campos de exterminio nazis, surgió en la imaginación de su autor durante los días de horror en Auschwitz, cuando la principal preocupación de los prisioneros era que, de sobrevivir, nadie creería la atrocidad de la historia vivida. Los campos de concentración y exterminio, más que resguardados por las alambradas y los guardias, lo estuvieron por su propia monstruosidad, que los hacía inconcebibles. Es la sobriedad del testimonio de Primo Levi, una víctima que no grita pero que arranca el grito de la garganta de su lector, lo que devuelve al horror su realidad y lo hace inteligible como una siniestra señal de peligro. Un libro conmovedor de un hombre con una indestructible fe en la razón.

In this instant and tenacious New York Times bestseller, Nike founder and board chairman Phil Knight “offers a rare and revealing look at the notoriously media-shy man behind the swoosh” (Booklist, starred review), illuminating his company’s early days as an intrepid start-up and its evolution into one of the world’s most iconic, game-changing, and profitable brands. Bill Gates named Shoe Dog one of his five favorite books of the year and called it “an amazing tale, a refreshingly honest reminder of what the path to business success really looks like. It’s a messy, perilous, and chaotic journey, riddled with mistakes, endless struggles, and sacrifice. Phil Knight opens up in ways few CEOs are willing to do.” Fresh out of business school, Phil Knight borrowed fifty dollars from his father and launched a company with one simple mission: import high-quality, low-cost running shoes from Japan. Selling the shoes from the trunk of his car in 1963, Knight grossed eight thousand dollars that first year. Today, Nike’s annual sales top $30 billion. In this age of start-ups, Knight’s Nike is the gold standard, and its swoosh is one of the few icons instantly recognized in every corner of the world. But Knight, the man behind the swoosh, has always been a mystery. In Shoe Dog, he tells his story at last. At twenty-four, Knight decides that rather than work for a big corporation, he will create something all his own, new, dynamic, different. He details the many risks he encountered, the crushing setbacks, the ruthless competitors and hostile bankers—as well as his many thrilling triumphs. Above all, he recalls the relationships that formed the heart and soul of Nike, with his former track coach, the irascible and charismatic Bill Bowerman, and with his first employees, a ragtag group of misfits and savants who quickly became a band of swoosh-crazed brothers. Together, harnessing the electrifying power of a bold vision and a shared belief in the transformative power of sports, they created a brand—and a culture—that changed everything.

The Woman in Me is a brave and astonishingly moving story about freedom, fame, motherhood, survival, faith, and hope. In June 2021, the whole world was listening as Britney Spears spoke in open court. The impact of sharing her voice—her truth—was undeniable, and it changed the course of her life and the lives of countless others. The Woman in Me reveals for the first time her incredible journey—and the strength at the core of one of the greatest performers in pop music history. Written with remarkable candor and humor, Spears’s groundbreaking book illuminates the enduring power of music and love—and the importance of a woman telling her own story, on her own terms, at last.

"Trenes tallades. Records d'una nena de Rússia", és el relat corprenedor dels anys d'exili forçat de la Roser Rosés, una nena de 12 anys, que l’any 1938 va ser enviada pels seus pares a la URSS per a salvaguardar-la dels estralls de la Guerra Civil, del que va tornar l’any 1947 convertida en una dona amb unasensibilitat i una formació incompatible amb l’Espanya franquista. És la història lúcida, tendra i intensa d'una infantesa i adolescència marcades per les guerres que ha tardat molts anys en poder ser explicada. «Quedaven enrere a l’URSS set anys i mig de la meva vida, set anys i mig de vivències inimaginables a través dels 12.000 quilòmetres de desplaçaments i perilloses evacuacions que havia hagut de fer a causa de la maleïda guerra; allà quedaven una part de la meva infantesa i tota la meva adolescència, en una estada que havia esdevingut molt més llarga del que ningú havia previst, en aquell immens país. M’emportava amb mi uns estudis, unes alegries —poques— i molta dissort. I la sensació de sentir-me forta i afortunada per haver sobreviscut a tot.»

Trenes tallades

Després de la invasió d’Holanda, els Frank, comerciants jueus alemanys emigrats a Amsterdam el 1933, es van amagar de la Gestapo en una mansarda connectada a l’edifici on el pare de l’Anna tenia les seves oficines. Eren vuit persones i van romandre-hi recloses des de juny de 1942 fins l’agost de 1944. En aquell lloc i en les més precàries condicions, l’Anna, una nena de tretze anys, escriví el seu esgarrifós Diari: un testimoni únic en el seu gènere sobre l’horror i la barbàrie nazis, i sobre els sentiments i les experiències que van viure ella mateixa i els seus acompanyants. Ana Frank fue una escritora alemana y judía. A la temprana edad de cuatro años, huyó de Alemania a Amsterdam, quedando sin nacionalidad. Cuando las fuerzas Nazis ocuparon Países Bajos, su familia se escondió en un anexo secreto de una fábrica de Pectina donde trabajaba el padre de Ana. Fue aquí donde Ana escribió su obra El Diario de Ana Frank, hasta que fue descubierta y arrestada por las fuerzas Gestapo, que la transfirieron a ella y su familia a Auschwitz, donde pereció en el campo de concentración de Bergen-Belsen a los quince años.

Història dels meus límits «Fem mal per por. Un bloc enganxifós de culpa i vergonya, massa sovint invisible. Fucking New York, man. Van ser uns anys d'aventures majúscules, que són les que ens expliquen». Fucking New York. Història dels meus límits és la memoir d'una noia que fuig a Nova York per retrobar el seu lloc al món. La ciutat, imponent i descarnada, li farà el joc de la pròpia inseguretat i ella la utilitzarà, igual que les cases on viu i les persones que troba, per escriure un relat que sempre es mou entre els extrems. El pànic acabarà quatre anys més tard quan finalment la dona es fa responsable dels seus actes i comprèn l'amor.

Una història de salut mental en primera persona «El meu diagnòstic és que tinc fòbia social crònica, o sigui por de relacionar-me amb la gent. Jo, que fa vint anys que em dedico a l'entreteniment; jo, que fa vint anys que em poso sobre un "escenari" cada dos per tres, a la tele, a la ràdio, fent presentacions en directe o gravades; jo, a qui veieu extravertit i sociable, tinc fòbia a les relacions socials. O sigui que, bàsicament, tinc por. O l'he tinguda. Bé, ja us aniré explicant com ho vaig descobrir i com ho hem tractat, tot això, perquè la cosa té tela». El popular periodista i actor Roger de Gràcia explica per primera vegada la depressió que pateix des que van començar els primers símptomes el dia del seu desè aniversari. Un llibre colpidor, ple d'humor i autoparòdia, que és un cant de dolor però també un crit d'esperança per a tanta gent que calla i que ho viu d'amagat.

Mosaic és l'únic llibre que Víctor Català va escriure en primera persona. Ara el camí no el fa la imaginació: ella és el seu propi personatge, t'acull en la intimitat per mostrar-te com s'ha format l'artista i com ha batallat per ser lliure des de ben petita. Intimitats serà el primer de tres volums que recuperem a Club Editor, íntegres per primer cop. Les curadores, Agnès Prats i Blanca Llum Vidal, han descobert 17 peces inèdites del Mosaic al Fons Víctor Català de l'Escala: són els "Fòssils", records de la primera infància de Caterina Albert. Són episodis curts, impresos tan vivament en la memòria que esclaten en ser rescatats. N'hi ha de deliciosos, com quan juga amb les bestioles del jardí de la infància. I d'impressionants, com quan t'ensenya les parets que va pintar al menjador de casa, personals pintures rupestres. A la segona part del llibre hi ha el conte "Mon niu", on la Víctor descriu les golfes des d'on escriu —¿i no és aquesta la cambra pròpia? Cal posar Víctor Català al costat de les seves germanes Virginia Woolf, Alice Munro o Marguerite Duras.

Quim Monzó i Sergi Pàmies són dos escriptors popularíssims. Dels seus llibres de narrativa se n'han fet desenes d'edicions. Han col·laborat amb molt d'èxit a la ràdio i a la televisió i han ofert un contrapunt crític i humorístic a temes d'actualitat: del futbol a la cuina creativa i del porno a les manifestacions de l'Onze de Setembre. Fruit de l'amistat que es va iniciar als anys vuitanta, han compartit copes i restaurants, llibres i pel·lícules, obsessions i compulsions. En una llarga entrevista de més de dotze hores, parlen amb Julià Guillamon de la família i la infantesa, dels progres, de la Barcelona moderna, dels programes de ràdio on han col·laborat, de l'articulisme, de la llengua dels seus llibres i de la seva visió de la literatura. Sergi Pàmies: "Jo tinc la sensació que una de les característiques d'ell és aquesta: la compulsió per damunt de la mitjana. Jo vaig a rebuf. Jo soc com allò del Marc Màrquez. Si ell sopa dues vegades doncs es sopa dues vegades". Quim Monzó: "Com deia Groucho Marx ¿per què m'hauria de preocupar jo per la posteritat si la posteritat no ha fet mai res per mi?".

Si la memòria no ens falla

«Aquest audiollibre recorda la vida del meu avi, que és la història d'un temps, d'un país. És un homenatge a una generació sencera d'homes i dones que van sobreviure a una guerra quan eren nens i que ara han hagut de fer front a la pandèmia des de la residència geriàtrica. La compilació d'una vida que abraça gairebé la totalitat del segle xx m'ha portat per viaranys insòlits. He descobert secrets del meu avi, i també he entès millor algunes de les decisions que va prendre al llarg de la seva vida». Toni Cruanyes s'allunya, en aquesta obra narrada per ell mateix, de la seva faceta més periodística per oferir-nos un retrat íntim, lúcid i precís. La Vall de la Llum, un poble de canyes, vent i fang, es desperta a la modernitat a través de les vivències amb què una família pagesa s'obre pas en un món que es transforma molt de pressa. Un relat verídic però escrit com una novel·la, amb un alt contingut dramàtic i evocador. «Cinquanta-dos anys després que Teresa Pàmies guanyés el Premi Josep Pla amb Testament a Praga, tornem a gaudir amb una crònica destinada a ser la memòria viva d'uns fets extraordinaris». Montse Barderi, escriptora i filòsofa

Joan Margarit, que ha complert 80 anys aquest mes de maig, fa unes memòries d'infantesa que tenen una profunditat il·luminadora. El poeta no espigola agendes o àlbums familiars, no es deixa amanyagar gaire per la nostàlgia, ni el preocupa gens quedar bé, sinó que es capbussa de ple en els records que li han quedat clavats i tracta d'entendre per què són allà i de quina manera tenen a veure amb la construcció de la seva vida i de la seva poesia. Joan Margarit escriu per entendre la vida, no només la seva. Un bon poeta fa d'una anècdota personal un símbol universal. La intenció d'aquestes pàgines és descobrir el valor de la vida en una infantesa i adolescència que no sempre van ser amable. A la coberta, el lector veurà el nen Margarit en un balcó de Girona; també va viure a Sanaüja, a Rubí, a Figueres, a Barcelona, a Santa Coloma de Gramenet i finalment a la lluminosa ciutat de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, d'on anava i tornava en uns lents i solitaris vaixells de càrrega que han impregnat per sempre més els seus poemes. Narrat per Jordi Coromina. Amb la col·laboració de la Generalitat de Catalunya, Departament de Cultura.

Per tenir casa cal guanyar la guerra

«Odio el tenis, l’odio amb tota l’ànima, i tanmateix hi continuo jugant, continuo picant la pilota matí i tarda, perquè no tinc alternativa. Encara que tingui ganes de parar, no ho faig. Continuo suplicant-me de parar, i continuo jugant. I aquest abisme, aquesta contradicció, sento que és l’essència de la meva vida.» Andre Agassi Quan era molt petit, li van posar una raqueta de joguina a la mà. Des d’aleshores, Agassi no ha fet altra cosa que donar cops de pilota. El seu pare, obsessionat a convertir-lo en un astre del tenis, va construir una màquina (el Drac) que disparava 2.500 pilotes al dia contra el petit Andre. Escrita pel premi Pulitzer J. R. Moehringer, Open és la semblança a cor obert d’Andre Agassi, que en aquestes memòries es mostra tal com és: un home que es va haver d’enfrontar a les pressions de la seva família, i de la fama, però que sempre va conservar el valor de la amistat i un sentit altruista de la vida. En aquesta fascinant autobiografia, Agassi revela, amb sentit de l’humor i tendresa, una vida definida per la contradicció entre un destí imposat i l’anhel de complaure els qui ho van sacrificar tot per ell. La premsa ha dit: «Open ja és un clàssic del periodisme esportiu de to literari, amb plecs emocionals, ritme narratiu i poc Netol per fer lluir els trofeus i medalles. Que ara puguem llegir-lo en català és una pilota de matx que es mereix ser guanyada.» Jordi Puntí «La biografia d’Agassi és senzillament addictiva. Més intensa que un partit a cinc sets.» Joan Lluís Garcia «Si us agrada el tenis, us encantarà. Si no, també. I per fi en català.» Anna Guitart «Un llibre difícil d´oblidar on triomf i inseguretat, talent i dolor, avancen alhora.» Jordi Nopca «Open humanitza un gran esportista. Poder llegir-lo en català és una celebració.» Jordi Corominas «Per fi en català el millor llibre sobre esports que he llegit mai, un Grand Slam literari. Això si se’l pot considerar un llibre d’esports. Perquè en realitat és una obra magnífica, emocionant i profunda, sobre la creuada de la vida i sobre una condemna concreta: ser el millor en una cosa que odies» Miqui Otero «Et corprèn i et transporta a un món molt diferent del tenis. M’apassiona i alhora em trastorna. Incommensurable.» Albert Espinosa, El Periódico «Una aventura existencial única amb la qual és molt fàcil identificar-se. No he pogut parar de llegir.» Juan José Millás «Una absorbent narració psicològica amb personatges turmentats que busquen el seu destí.» Sergio Vila-Sanjuán «Aquest llibre perillosament hipnotitzant és una commovedora història sobre la tirania de l’èxit i del fracàs i sobre les moltes vides que hi ha en una vida.» Rosa Montero, EPS «Quan acabes, sents que estimes el protagonista i que el que has llegit no és una biografia, sinó una cosa que t’ha confiat un amic. Vibrant com pocs.» Jesús Carrasco «El millor llibre que he llegit en l’última dècada.» Alessandro Baricco, La Repubblica «Es llegeix amb diversió i ganes de més.» David Trueba, «Honesta, una genuïna novel·la d’aprenentatge, divertida i commovedora.» The New York Times Review of Books «Escrita amb un estil vigorós i enlluernador.» The Times «N’hi ha prou amb un parell de paràgrafs per saber que estem davant d’un gran llibre.» Corriere della Sera «De com Agassi s’ha convertit en Andre.» Le Monde

Follem? és un assaig que examina la sexualitat i el plaer i ho fa des d'una exploració més enllà dels clixés i els tabús. Aquest llibre parteix d'un nou inici per mirar la sexualitat sense la vergonya, les imatges preconcebudes o els papers autoimposats. És una nova manera de mirar cap a l'interior del desig i dels cossos humans i també cap a l'exterior, cap a les persones amb les qui compartim aquest anhel. Escoltar al cos, a l'ànima i no fer cas a tot el que s'ha imposat per defecte. En Follem?, Bel Olid explica una nova forma d'explorar el plaer propi i el de l'altra persona. Bel Olid (Catalunya, 1977) és escriptora, traductora i professora de llengua. Es va llicenciar en Traducció i interpretació i des de llavors s'ha dedicat a la traducció. En 2008 va publicar la seva primera obra, un relat que va rebre el Premi Qwerty al millor relat infantil. Ha publicat més de deu obres de ficció, no-ficció i literatura juvenil i infantil, que han guanyat diversos premis, entre ells el premi Documenta 2010. Des de 2015 és presidenta de l'Associació d'escriptors en llengua catalana.

El domini absolut de l’escenari, l’elegància, la tendresa, una dicció perfecta i una eficaç expressivitat angelical mescla de timidesa i intensitat, van convertir Carles Sabater en l’ídol més carismàtic de la seva època. Al llarg de dotze anys frenètics d’ascensió a la fama, va forjar un estil magnètic d’estar sobre l’escenari on, tant si cantava com si actuava, establia una connexió immediata i íntima amb un públic que l’estimava amb una tendresa incondicional. Cor trencat és la reconstrucció dels darrers dies, setmanes i mesos de la vida d’algú que no sabia que caminava al caire de l’abisme. Amb una prosa rotunda, delicada i honesta, Pep Blay retroba persones i llocs en una recerca íntima de l’ídol caigut, de l’amic que havia de ser, per preguntar-se si les coses haurien pogut ser d’una altra manera, per descobrir finalment què i com va trencar el cor de Carles Sabater.

At 12.16 a.m. on Wednesday, June 5, 1968, Senator Robert F. Kennedy was shot and mortally wounded in the service pantry of the Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles. A 24-year-old Palestinian immigrant, Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, was found holding the smoking gun and convicted of murder. That is the official history - but Tim Tate and Brad Johnson have uncovered a different story. After 25 years spent scrutinising over 100,000 official documents and previously unknown recordings, and conducting new interviews with key figures, they show that Sirhan could not have fired the fatal bullets - and reveal evidence of a murderous conspiracy involving organised crime and the CIA....

How do we hear from God and discern His will when it’s time to make big decisions? Terry Looper shares a four-step process for doing just that - a process he has learned and refined over thirty years as a Christian entrepreneur and founder of a multi-billion-dollar company. At just thirty-six years old, Terry Looper was a successful Christian businessman who thought he had it all—until managing all he had led to a devastating burnout. Wealthy beyond his wildest dreams but miserable beyond belief, Terry experienced a radical transformation when he discovered how to align himself with God’s will in the years following his crash and burn. Sacred Pace is a four-step process that helps Christians in all walks of life learn how to slow down their decision-making under the guidance of the Holy Spirit,sift through their surface desires and sinful patterns in order to receive clear, peace-filled answers from the Lord,gain the confident assurance that God’s answers are His way of fulfilling the true desires he has placed in their hearts, andgrow closer to the One who loves them most and knows them best.This audiobook is not another example of name-it-and-claim-it materialism in disguise. Instead, it walks readers through the sometimes-painful process of “dying to self” in their decisions, both big and small, so that they desire God’s will more than their own.

Bestselling author Rob Bell returns with a provocative new book which gets to the heart of questions about life and death. His perspective, encapsulated by his famous slogan ‘love wins’, will surprise and challenge both Christians and atheists, and will inspire people of all faiths and none. A recent Gallup survey showed that over half of British people believe in heaven. But what is it? Who is it for? Why does it matter? And how do we know if we’re going there? Rob Bell believes that even the most fervent Christians and the most committed atheists, are still not satisfied with their traditional answers to these questions. Out of respect for their traditions they keep quiet, confiding to a few close, safe friends their doubts and questions about why they are here and where they are going. For many years, on sermons and DVDs and on bumper stickers and t-shirts, bestselling Chrisian author Rob Bell has been saying that ‘Love Wins’. But ‘Love Wins’ is much more than a pithy slogan. ‘Love Wins’ is a philosophy drawn out from deep within religious tradition and writings.

Shakspere, Personal Recollections

A fascinating collection of letters from English poet Rupert Brooke. Description from the introductory note: The author started in May 1913 on a journey to the United States, Canada, and the South Seas, from which he returned next year at the beginning of June. The first thirteen chapters of this book were written as letters to the Westminster Gazette. He would probably not have republished them in their present form, as he intended to write a longer book on his travels; but they are now printed with only the correction of a few evident slips. The two remaining chapters appeared in the New Statesman, soon after the outbreak of war.

At fifteen, Fiori made the agonizing decision to flee war-torn Eritrea without friends or family. She crossed five continents and twenty countries in search of knowledge, personal growth and wisdom, eventually settling in Australia where she's now a highly sought-after and respected business and executive coach, as well as a keynote speaker and media commentator. After repeatedly overcoming harrowing experiences and insurmountable obstacles, Fiori decoded her own steps to survival, transformation and success, creating a framework that empowers others to do the same. This framework is now available to you in her book, 'Defy Your Destiny', released in February 2019. After listening to this audiobook, you will be uplifted by Fiori's spirit, inspired by her courage, and motivated to take positive action in all areas of your life.

Defy Your Destiny: Make your most painful walk your most triumphant journey

‘Highly engaging . . . The creeping escalation of oppression and rebellion is often thrillingly told . . . A powerful story of a history that remains far from settled’ Daily Telegraph In the darkest days of the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands, Anna-Maria van der Vaart sheltered Allied pilots, gave refuge to persecuted Jews and participated in audacious acts of sabotage. She survived when others did not, a witness to their courage and to the terrible treachery that betrayed so many of them to the Nazis. Tens of thousands of Dutchmen elected to fight with the Germans, while many civilians turned over their Jewish neighbours to an almost certain death. Holland’s Jewish leaders prevaricated, hoping to save their people and their own skins. But the exploits of the Dutch Resistance produced unimaginable heroism and unparalleled self-sacrifice. A chance meeting with Martin Sixsmith in 2019 led to Anna-Maria telling him her story. In Dutch and German archives, interviews with survivors, personal diaries and contentious memoirs by those with things to hide, Sixsmith came across a drama on a scale he could never have imagined. My Sins Go with Me is a story of remarkable bravery, and of cowardice and betrayal in the hardest of times.

My Sins Go With Me

SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM 20TH CENTURY FOX Two reckless but lovable all-American bros make a strong case for maturing slowly through their outrageous yet enlightening misadventures across this great country of ours. My brother and I are looking for wedding dates for our cousin’s wedding. We’ve been told by the bride that bringing dates is “mandatory” so we “won’t harass all of my friends all night” and “stay under control.” Rather than ask some fringe women in our lives to go and face the inevitable ‘does this mean he wants to take it to the next level?!’ questions, we’d rather bring complete strangers and just figure it out… We’re both in our 20s, single, dashingly tall, Anglo-Saxon, respectfully athletic, love to party, completely house trained…love our mother, have seen Love Actually several times…raw, emotional, sensitive, but still bad boys.…You should be attractive or our aunts will judge you, but not TOO attractive or one of our uncles might grope you. Dave and Mike Stangle thought nothing of it when they boozily decided to turn to the “activity partners” section of Craigslist to solicit dates to their cousin’s wedding. The hilarious, out-of-this-world ad that they came up with—featuring a picture of the two brothers as centaurs—immediately went viral, eventually landing these Wayfarers-wearing, moped-riding, completely reckless but ultimately loveable bros in the annals of the “Internet famous.” In Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, the Stangle brothers bring their trademark, off-color humor to everything from their most embarrassing adolescent experiences (like getting beat up by a girl on their front lawn...in front of their dad), to the most outrageous predicaments (like tripping on mushrooms with their bulldog, Frank), to proper sexting etiquette, and finally to breaking up a midget bar fight (you have to shoo them away). With the incredible comedic chemistry of Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson in Wedding Crashers and the uncensored honesty of Tucker Max, Mike and Dave insist there’s nothing wrong with just seeing where life takes you.

In a strange twist of kismet, Remica Bingham-Risher's paternal great-great-great grandmother, Minnie Lee Fowlkes, is interviewed for the Works Progress Administration Slave Narratives in Petersburg, Virginia in 1937, and her maternal grandmother, Mary Knight, is sent to Petersburg in 1941, diagnosed with "water on the brain"—postpartum depression being an ongoing mystery—nine days after birthing her first child. Braiding meticulous archival research with Womanist scholarship and her hallmark lyrical precision, Bingham-Risher's latest collection of poems treads the murky waters of race, lineage, faith, mental health, women's rights, and the violent reckoning that inhabits the discrepancy between lived versus textbook history, asking: What do we inherit when trauma is at the core of our fractured living? Utilizing primary and secondary sources, Bingham-Risher weaves together a richly textured vision of her foremothers' everyday and exceptional living: two very different women at opposite ends of their lives, converging upon the same space and time. The lives these women inhabit and generations they fostered add infinite layers to the fabric of the American tapestry. Room Swept Home serves as a gloriously rendered portrait of all that is held in the line between the private and public, the investigative and generative, the self and those who came before us.

Kamala Harris Biography

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson (December 10, 1830 – May 15, 1886) was an American poet. Born in Amherst, Massachusetts, to a successful family with strong community ties, she lived a mostly introverted and reclusive life. After she studied at the Amherst Academy for seven years in her youth, she spent a short time at Mount Holyoke Female Seminary before returning to her family's house in Amherst. Thought of as an eccentric by the locals, she became known for her penchant for white clothing and her reluctance to greet guests or, later in life, even leave her room. Most of her friendships were therefore carried out by correspondence. In 2016, Terence Davies released A Quiet Passion, a biographical film about the life of Emily Dickinson. The film stars Cynthia Nixon as the reclusive poet. It co-stars Emma Bell as young Dickinson, Jennifer Ehle, Duncan Duff and Keith Carradine.

Pepe Marais began his entrepreneurial journey as a newspaper delivery boy at the age of twelve. After finishing high school in 1986, he spent two years in the army completing what was then compulsory national service. On his way home at the end of his service, while waiting for a Vlossie at an airforce base in Rundu, he had a chance encounter with a graphic artist, an event which would change the course of his life. Pepe's latent talent for art was developed and honed at an art school in Cape Town, where he finished top of his class each year, which in turn would lead him to discover his passion for advertising. After six years in the industry he and his business partner Gareth Leck launched their enterprising Take-Away Advertising Agency and success seemed a foregone conclusion. However, in 2006, Pepe's business career and personal life began to disintegrate. At the lowest point of his life, he would discover a fundamental insight that became the foundation on which he would rebuild everything. It would also inspire the development of his Purpose for Business methodology and his deep interest in unlocking both human and business potential. While Growing Greatness contains many lessons for aspiring entrepreneurs, perhaps what is more important is the deep wisdom it offers. Through his growing awareness of what purpose means in both business and personal terms, Pepe points the way to growing your own greatness.

Buenos Aires in the 1920s was a fascinating destination for a young person looking for a new life: a place of fantasy, adventure and prospects of fast wealth. In Goodbye Buenos Aires Andrew Graham-Yooll weaves together a lightly fictionalized biography of his father, who arrived from Edinburgh, penniless, in 1928, and an account of twentieth-century Argentina. He provides a vivid description of the country, of the torment of emigration and of the catalogue of characters – from the Prince of Wales to Lawrence Durrell and Aristotle Onassis – who flaunted their fortunes and vented their fury about life in this city on the River Plate.

Goodbye Buenos Aires

«Hay unas pequeñas rosas rosadas sobre el escritorio. Qué extraña tristeza suelen desprender las rosas de otoño…» «Por primera vez en semanas, estoy aquí sola, dispuesta a retomar mi vida "real". Eso es lo extraño: que ni los amigos, ni siquiera los amores apasionados, son mi vida real, a menos que disponga de un tiempo a solas para explorar y descubrir cuanto está ocurriendo, o cuanto ya ha ocurrido». May Sarton espera abrirse camino «entre las abruptas y rocosas profundidades para llegar al núcleo de la matriz, donde aún quedan iras y violencias no resueltas. Mi necesidad de estar a solas siempre está en contrapunto con el miedo a todo aquello que sucederá si de repente, una vez adentrada en el enorme y vacío silencio, no puedo encontrar apoyo alguno». Sarton escribe con un riguroso sentido de la observación y una gran carga emocional sobre el mundo interior y exterior: las estaciones, la vida cotidiana, los libros, la gente, las ideas; y a medida que se detiene en todo ello, va conformando su viaje artístico y espiritual. En este libro nos encontramos más cerca que nunca de la esencia de su escritura.

Diario de una soledad

Like so many of her generation, Lwando Xaso came of age alongside the beginnings and growth of South Africa's constitutional democracy. Her journey into adulthood was a radically different one from that of earlier generations, marked by hope that changing perceptions would usher in a new and free society. Made in South Africa – A Black Woman's Stories of Rage, Resistance and Progress, is a vibrant collection of essays in which Lwando examines with incisive clarity some of the events that have shaped her experience of South Africa – a country with huge potential but weighed down by persistent racism and inequality, cultural appropriation, sexism and corruption, all legacies of a complicated history. As a young lawyer intent on climbing the corporate ladder, Lwando's life's direction was changed by a personal experience of the oppressive capacity of a supposedly democratic government when it unjustly fired a close family friend and mentor from a senior government position. She found herself on his legal team and the turmoil the case created within her led her to further her studies in constitutional law, and to pick up her pen and share with a wider audience her views of what was happening in her beloved country. Her outlook was further shaped by her experience of clerking at the Constitutional Court for Justice Edwin Cameron, which deepened her respect for the South African Constitution, and what it really means for a resilient people to strive continually to live up to its moral and legal standards. Lwando's writing reflects her unflinching resolve to live according to the precepts of our groundbreaking Constitution and offers a challenge to all South Africans to believe in and achieve 'the improbable'.

«This life is not mine. It is evolving rhythmically through a regular breath that is not mine, cheered by a peaceful day that is not mine. There is nothing in this world that is yours. Sandra, realize it! It is all a gift in which the ‘Giver’ can intervene when and how he wishes. Take care of the gift given to you, make it more beautiful and full for when the time comes.» Sandra's Diary stops here, on 27th of April 1984. Words that seem to presage the tragic accident in which she will be involved two days later. Only after her death is her secret discovered: imprinted on pieces of paper, cards, diaries, school diaries you can find the heart of a girl who wants to lead every thought, every action, her whole being to Christ. An extraordinary spiritual journey that father Oreste Benzi had the intuition to collect and publish, giving life to Sandra's Diary. This edition contains – in addition to Sandra's writings – her story, Stefano Vitali's testimony on the miracle of healing, the prayer to ask for the intercession of the new Blessed.

‘Grant whips up moments of intense emotion and life with the briefest of words and images. Throughout it all, food is the life source, comfort, energiser and inspiration bursting from the pages a la Anthony Bourdain’s Kitchen Confidential.’ Stylist‘What a beautiful, rich, poetic memoir this is. Phyllis writes of longing, suffering, family, and food with such delicate power. Like the best chefs, she knows how to make a masterpiece from a few simple ingredients: truth, poignancy, and love. A wonderful book.’ Elizabeth Gilbert, author of 10 million copy bestseller Eat, Pray, LoveBake. I bake for others. Belgian waffles, French toast, crêpes, chocolate chip cookies. When I cook, I am calm, I am confident. There is comfort in the logic. Chef and award-winning writer Phyllis Grant’s life has been defined by food. First, as a dancer struggling to find her place at Julliard, when banana muffins with inch-thick streusel are the fuel for another day of training. Then, a lowly junior chef in high-pressure NYC four-star kitchens, as she masters the tarte Tatin and ice cream custard. Falling in love with her future husband and the garlicky tomato sauce he makes in his bare apartment. The quesadillas she can’t stop eating in LA before she realises she’s pregnant. These are the recipes that have accompanied Phyllis throughout the smooth and jagged stages of her life as she navigates the highs and lows of young adulthood, being a mother, and a career in the kitchen. Written with the transparency of a diarist and including tried-and-true recipes from her chef’s table, Everything Is Under Control is a raw and riveting story about food, family, love and loss.

'Jane Eyre' is a story about an orphan child. Jane's parents died when she was still too little to remember them, and it is her uncle (her mother's brother) who takes her in. Jane's uncle also dies not to long after this, and he makes hir wife, Mrs. Reed, promise him that she will take care of his niece as if she were her own. Unfortunately for Jane, her aunt does not fulfill that promise: She considers Jane a bourdain and dislikes her for being poor. Her children are no better. Under their mother's indulgence, they mistreat their cousin constantly, always making it clear that she is inferior to them. It is only at age ten that Jane managed to get out of her aunt's house, but her quality of life does not improve much. She is sent to Lowood, a charity school directed by the cruel Mr. Brocklehurst, who does not hesitate in making the pupils face hunger, cold and even physical punishments in what he considers a chance to 'save their souls'. Our protagonist remains at Lowood for eight years, six as a pupil and two as a teacher. After that, she decides that it is time to find a new situation and advertises in a paper offering her services to educate children. The only answer she receives comes from a place called Thornfield, in Millcote, and is addressed by a Mrs. Fairfax, who hires her to be the governess of only one child. Jane's life in Thornfield Hall is more satisfactory that she could have expected. She likes Mrs. Fairfax, the housekeeper, and her little pupil Adele, who soon become very fond of her, too. Jane also gets to know Mr. Rochester, owner of Thornfield, with whom she develops a strange friendship that eventually turns into love. But it will be no long until she discovers that the unequal social positions and the difference of age are not the biggest obstacles that their relationship has to overcome. On the eve of their wedding a terrible secret comes out, tearing Jane away from everything she has ever known.

Discernimiento Espiritual

Blind since birth, a once-spirited kid with big dreams now finds herself in a locked psychiatric facility—a wounded young woman in the midst of a global pandemic. This memoir spans decades and continents to tell a story of the beautiful similarities that make us all human. From meeting unlikely allies in the dirty streets of some of Latin America's most impoverished neighbourhoods, to discovering difficult truths about discrimination in her home country of Canada, Heather Hutchison offers poignant insight into mental health awareness, and what it means to strive for an ordinary life when you are often treated as anything but ordinary. At once heartbreakingly honest and strikingly witty, 'Holding On by Letting Go' is the unforgettable true story of one woman's journey through despair to acceptance and hope. Ultimately, it is a portrayal of the light that can be found in the darkest of times.

Holding On by Letting Go

A journalist and folklorist explores the truths that underlie the stories we imagine—and reveals the magic in the everyday. “I’ve always felt that the term fairy tale doesn’t quite capture the essence of these stories,” writes Emily Urquhart. “I prefer the term wonder tale, which is Irish in origin, for its suggestion of awe coupled with narrative. In a way, this is most of our stories.” In this startlingly original essay collection, Urquhart reveals the truths that underlie our imaginings: what we see in our heads when we read, how the sight of a ghost can heal, how the entrance to the underworld can be glimpsed in an oil painting or a winter storm—or the onset of a loved one’s dementia. In essays on death and dying, pregnancy and prenatal genetics, radioactivity, chimeras, cottagers, and plague, Ordinary Wonder Tales reveals the essential truth: if you let yourself look closely, there is magic in the everyday.
