STUART, DOUGLAS

It is 1981. Glasgow is dying and good families must grift to survive. Agnes Bain has always expected more from life. She dreams of greater things: a house with its own front door and a life bought and paid for outright (like her perfect, but false, teeth). But Agnes is abandoned by her philandering husband, and soon she and her three children find themselves trapped in a decimated mining town. As she descends deeper into drink, the children try their best to save her, yet one by one they must abandon her to save themselves. It is her son Shuggie who holds out hope the longest. Shuggie is different. Fastidious and fussy, he shares his mother’s sense of snobbish propriety. The miners' children pick on him and adults condemn him as no’ right. But Shuggie believes that if he tries his hardest, he can be normal like the other boys and help his mother escape this hopeless place. Douglas Stuart's Shuggie Bain lays bare the ruthlessness of poverty, the limits of love, and the hollowness of pride. A counterpart to the privileged Thatcher-era London of Alan Hollinghurst’s The Line of Beauty, it also recalls the work of Édouard Louis, Frank McCourt, and Hanya Yanagihara, a blistering debut by a brilliant writer with a powerful and important story to tell.

Star
Hoy -5% en Libros

García, Nacho

'Star'' is a book about art. A book about appropiation and public domain. About brand, identity and copyright. It is a book about money. Still and nevertheless &#x02014,nevertheless&#x02014, it is a book with a soul, where children play and run about in their sunday clothes. A book that raises to some cloudy sacred place where only the blessed dwell. In 2013 Nacho García broke the boundaries of his own domestic look into the world with Pulir, a hazardous tour de force against dull fixed parameters of art books and comics. Knowing &#x02014,maybe not knowing&#x02014, he had already walked the path from memes and bedroom epistemology by challenging the trivia stereotypes of the quirk and the mundane, his new book is a heartfelt statement about the politics of raw abstract truisms and platitudes of art. Everyday life, money, celebrities, internet are art forms here, just as hellfire and custom metal logos, becoming res nullius, res communes, res publicae and res universitatis while over two hundred ideas made in heaven find their way into corporeality, proving that if it can be written in Arial, then it's REAL.

One life

Winton, Barbara

There are around 6000 people in the world today who owe their lives to Nicholas Winton. They are the descendants of a group of refugee children rescued by him from the Nazi threat in 1939. Some of them know of his existence and the part he played in their history, many others do not. It was a short event in his life but a critical one for those whose lives were saved. For him that intervention was over in a flash and other adventures supplanted it. Only much later did this episode re-emerge in his life and ever since has brought him visitors from all over the world anxious to learn his story. This book lays out that story in detail, exploring the motivation and early experiences that led to him acting to save young lives, while others looked the other way. His motto ''If something is not impossible, then there must be a way to do it'' led him to follow his own convictions and undertake an operation others had dismissed as unnecessary or too difficult. His life thereafter was full of exploits stimulated by similar motivation which, though not so consequential, remain testimony to his character. But what was his motivation? How had his life and background led to him being ready, willing and able to conduct a successful rescue operation of 669 children from Czechoslovakia at the age of 29? His daughter has painstakingly sifted through her father's papers and talked to family and friends to construct a detailed account of his whole life. It explores the influences on his character as well as the historical events he was caught up in. Taken from his historical letters and writings, Winton's own words are introduced to convey the atmosphere of many of his diverse experiences.

In ascension
Hoy -5% en Libros

MacInnes, Martin

Leigh grew up in Rotterdam, drawn to the waterfront as an escape from her unhappy home life and volatile father. Enchanted by the undersea world of her childhood, she excels in marine biology, travelling the globe to study ancient organisms. When a trench is discovered in the Atlantic ocean, Leigh joins the exploration team, hoping to find evidence of the earth's first life forms - what she instead finds calls into question everything we know about our own beginnings.Her discovery leads Leigh to the Mojave desert and an ambitious new space agency. Drawn deeper into the agency's work, she learns that the Atlantic trench is only one of several related phenomena from across the world, each piece linking up to suggest a pattern beyond human understanding. Leigh knows that to continue working with the agency will mean leaving behind her declining mother and her younger sister, and faces an impossible choice: to remain with her family, or to embark on a journey across the breadth of the cosmos.Exploring the natural world with the wonder and reverence we usually reserve for the stars, In Ascension is a compassionate, deeply inquisitive epic that reaches outward to confront the greatest questions of existence, looks inward to illuminate the smallest details of the human heart, and shows how - no matter how far away we might be and how much we have lost hope - we will always attempt to return to the people and places we call home.

The Syntax of Castilian Prose
Hoy -5% en Libros

Keniston, Hayward

Dentro de la prolífica obra del hispanista Ralph Hayward Keniston (1883-1970), perteneciente a la generación que en el siglo XX amplía el entendimiento de qué implica enseñar una lengua y abre la docencia del español a la cultura, destaca The Syntax of Castilian Prose (1937), obra originalísima, sin bibliografía, con un poderoso índice (quizá lo más consultado de ella) que alienta la caza de los tesoros lingüísticos del Quinientos, etapa favorita de nuestra cultura y lengua para el celebrado filólogo. Keniston, que principia escribiendo sobre literatura áurea, de Garcilaso a Cervantes, y se inserta después en los estudios de lingüística probabilística, representa la bisagra intelectual del hispanismo estadounidense que desde una concepción decimonónica romantizada de España y de su lengua se abría a una perspectiva más realista y pretendidamente científica, consolidada durante el XX. Asumida esta herencia y también la ruptura de la apuesta por una nueva didáctica, aquí despliega una taxonomía de posibilidades del español del XVI con indicación de su grado mayor o menor de probabilidad a partir de su frecuencia: así, se dan pistas para seguir trabajando en el estudio de estructuras posibles o se informa de datos que pueden ser suficientes para una rápida argumentación sobre cuestiones de español histórico. Inspirada por los trabajos sobre estadística de uso de palabras y listados bibliográficos de utilidad educativa, The Syntax of Castilian Prose significó, como señala Lola Pons en el brillante prólogo a esta edición, un nuevo modelo de libro, cartesiano, ordenado, con la lengua desmenuzada y despiezada taxonómicamente. Aún hoy, el de Keniston sigue siendo un inmejorable y utilísimo manual del que extraer ejemplos, fuente de consulta constante, lectura no lineal pero sí de referencia para la cita de ejemplos de usos morfosintácticos del Quinientos.

Clear thinking

Parrish, Shane

Clear Thinking gives you the tools to recognize the moments that have the potential to transform your trajectory, and reshape how you navigate the critical space between stimulus and response. As Parrish shows, we may imagine we are the protagonists in the story of our lives. But the sad truth is, most of us run on autopilot. Our behavioral defaults, groomed by biology, evolution, and culture, are primed to run the show for us if we don’t intervene. At our worst, we react to events without reasoning, not even realizing that we’ve missed an opportunity to think at all. At our best, we recognize these moments for what they are, and apply the full capacity of our reasoning and rationality to them.

Basic Human Anatomy

Osti, Roberto

Basic Human Anatomy teaches artists the simple yet powerful formula artists have used for centuries to draw the human figure from the inside out. A comprehensive, yet flexible and holistic approach, Roberto Osti’s method of teaching anatomy is exhaustive, but never loses sight of the fact that this understanding should lead to the creation of art. Osti, using the basic system of line, shape, and form used by da Vinci, Raphael, and Michelangelo, takes readers step-by-step through all the lessons needed in order to master this essential foundation skill. Organized progressively, the book shows readers how to replicate the underlying structure of the body using easy-to-understand scales and ratios, conceptualize the front and side views of the skeleton with basic shapes, add detail with simplified depictions of complex bones and joints, draw a muscle map of the body with volumetric form and realistic dimension, master the feet, hands, and skull to create realistic renderings of the human form, and apply a deeper knowledge of anatomy to finished drawings for more impact.
