Pohlednice bez podpisu

Když Cara narazí na skrýš starých pohlednic v podkroví, jejich obsah náhle zpochybní všechny její dosavadní jistoty. Příběh, který se při četbě pohlednic vynořuje je matoucí a znepokojující; zdá se, že jistoty byly založeny na lži. Ale kdo jí může říct pravdu? Otec se stále více propadá do Alzheimerovy choroby a bratr se zdráhá Caře jakkoli pomoci. Má Cara vůbec šanci najít odpovědi na své otázky? Jedna věc je však jasná od začátku - někdo ví víc, než je ochoten přiznat. Rozpolcená mezi loajalitou k vlastní rodině a obavami z toho, co by se mohlo vynořit z útrob minulosti začíná Cara pátrat po dávno ztracených příbuzných, kteří by jí mohli pomoci tajemství rozluštit. Obraz, který se před ní začíná objevovat ale není takový, jaký očekávala, protože lži, jak se brzy ukáže, mají tendenci se hromadit.

The Nonsense Show

Silliness takes center stage in this laugh-out-loud book from the creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar?--now available as a board bookYes, there's something strange, something funny and even downright preposterous on every page of this book. But it's not a mistake - it's nonsense Nonsense lies at the heart of many beloved nursery rhymes. Children readily accept odd statements like "the cow jumped over the moon" and "the dish ran away with the spoon." This fanciful bending of reality is also basic to surrealism.In this book, nonsense and surrealism combine to spark creativity and imagination. What's true? What's impossible? What's absolutely absurd? From Eric Carle, creator of the classic, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, comes a book to make children laugh and think, preparing them for a lifetime of loving both words and art.Praise for The

Intensive Science and Virtual Philosophy

First published 10 years ago, Manuel DeLanda's Intensive Science and Virtual Philosophy rapidly established itself as a landmark text in contemporary continental thought. DeLanda here draws on the realist philosophy of Gilles Deleuze to the domain of philosophy of science. As well as contemporary philosophical insights, the book also tackles new developments in geometry, complexity theory and chaos theory to bring new insights to our understanding of a scientific knowledge liberated from traditional ideas of essence. Now available in the Bloomsbury Revelations series, this edition includes a new preface by Delanda, revisiting the themes of his book ten years on.

Personal Identity and Literature

In Personal Identity and Literature, Hogan examines what makes an individual a particular, unique self. He draws on cognitive and affective science as well as literary works - from Walt Whitman and Frederick Douglass to Dorothy Richardson, Alice Munro, and J. M. Coetzee. His scholarly analyses are also intertwined with more personal reflections, such as his mother's memory loss. The result is a work that examines a complex topic by drawing on a unique range of resources, from empirical psychology and philosophy to novels, films, and biographical experiences. The book provides a clear, systematic account of personal identity that is theoretically strong, but also unique and

The Hastur Cycle

The stories in this book evoke a tracery of evil rarely rivaled in horror writing. They represent the whole evolving trajectory of such notions as Hastur, the King in Yellow, Carcosa, the Yellow Sign, the Black Stone, Yuggoth, and the Lake of Hali. A succession of writers from Ambrose Bierce to Ramsey Campbell and Karl Edward Wagner have explored and embellished these concepts so that the sum of the tales has become an evocative tapestry of hypnotic dread and terror, a mythology distinct from yet overlapping the Cthulhu Mythos. Here for the first time is a comprehensive collection of all the relevant

Rodney Smith Photographs

Dans la lignée de Richard Avedon et Irving Penn, Rodney Smith a un style signature et intemporel. Cette collection éblouissante, maintenant en livre de poche et avec un imprimé encadrable, célèbre les 50 ans de la photographie de Smith. Rodney Smith comble le fossé entre la photographie commerciale et l'art, entre le monde réel dans lequel nous vivons et le monde de l'artiste de l’ima.Rodney Smith (1947 &; 2016) est né à New York, NY. Il a trouvé son inspiration artistique en visitant la collection permanente de photographie du Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) pendant sa première année à l'université. Après avoir obtenu son diplôme de l'Université de Virginie en 1970, il a obtenu une maîtrise en théologie à Yale tout en étudiant la photographie avec Walker Evans. Influencé par l'enseignement et la précision technique d'Ansel Adams, Smith a cherché à perfectionner sa propre technique, en restreignant son choix de caméra, de film, d'exposition, de développeur et de papier. Il transforma cette formation en une fraternité à Jérusalem, où il prit les photos qui deviendront son premier livre, Au pays de la lumière. Après son retour aux États-Unis, il s'est imposé en tant que photographe de mode et artiste recherché. Dans tout cela, il a conservé sa signature esthétique. Tournées exclusivement avec du cinéma et de la lumière naturelle, les images intemporelles de Smith sont immédiatement reconnaissables pour la façon dont elles combinent surréalisme, style et humour. Smith est décédé subitement à 68 ans, peu de temps après la première publication de Rodney Smith Photographs. Les autres livres de Smith incluent The Hat Book, The Book of Books et The End.

The world inside her parents' tiny one-bedroom apartment was hardly a respite, with a family of five--including some loud personalities--eventually occupying the 550-square-foot space.Salvation arrived in the form of her spirited grandfather, Daddy Joe, whose midtown studio became a second home to Megan. There, he listened to her woes, fed her Hungry Man frozen dinners, and simply let her be. His living room may have been dominated by the drawing table, notes, and
