"Min i nat" er Lisa Kleypas' hede og romantisk kærlighedshistorie om to modsætningers uventede begær i 1800-tallets London. Amanda Briar er en egenrådig og ugift forfatter, som snart fylder 30 år. Hun har i sinde at give sig selv en helt speciel gave: én nat med en fremmed mand. Da den særlige nat indtræffer, møder en fremmed mand op. Men det er ikke hvem, hun troede det var. For ind træder den succesrige og selvstændige forlægger, Jack Devlin, som vil tale med Amanda om hendes bøger. Han fatter hurtigt misforståelsen, men giver alligevel Amanda, det hun ønskede sig for én nat. Selvom det bare skulle være en engangsaffære, er der en gnist imellem dem, som ikke bare brænder ud med det samme. Det hele kompliceres dog, da Amanda finder ud af at Jack har købt hendes manuskript. Amanda bliver rasende, og Jack må sætte alle sejl ind for at overvinde Anna som elsker og forlægger... Lisa Kleypas forener gnistrende romantik og et betagende og medrivende historisk miljø i "Min i nat", som vil underholde alle fans af lidenskabelige kærlighedsromaner.
Beowulf is one of the most universally studied of the English classics, and considered to be the most important and most often translated works of Old English literature. The title character is a warrior with superhuman strength who honors his king by performing glorious deeds, the first of which is to rescue the royal house of Denmark from two violent monsters. After killing them, he returns triumphantly and rules his people wisely as their King for 50 years, before he is again called upon to combat a dragon terrorizing the countryside. Despite knowing that he will most likely not survive the long and terrible fight, he helps kill the venomous dragon but is mortally wounded from a bite on the neck. His death is seen not as tragic, but as befitting the end of a good hero's life. Presented in an authoritative prose translation, this 6th century tale of heroism and sacrifice ranges from fierce action sequences to detailed portrayals of court life and combines mythical elements, pagan and Christian sensibilities, and actual historical figures. It is thought to be an earnest reflection of social and moral dilemmas presented in a tone of sustained grandeur.

From New York Times bestselling author Talia Hibbert comes an electric, domestic, roommates-to-lovers romance between a whirlwind party girl and her uptight best friend... Two best friends. Seven years of pining. One explosive summer... Romance is weakness, and Jasmine Allen doesn't have time for either. Lifelong cynic Jas is the queen of one-night things-until a plumbing disaster screws everything up and leaves her temporarily homeless. Luckily, she has someone to turn to: her best friend Rahul. For seven years, Rahul Khan has followed three simple rules. Don't touch Jasmine if you can help it.Don't look at her arse in that skirt.And don't ever-ever-tell her you love her. He should've added another rule: Do not, under any circumstances, let Jas move into your house. Now Rahul is living with the friend he can't have, and it's decimating his control. He knows their shared dinners aren't dates, their late-night kisses are a mistake, and the tenderness in Jasmine's gaze is only temporary. One wrong word could send his skittish best friend running. So why is he tempted to risk it all?
Solve for Happy is a startlingly original book about creating and maintaining happiness, written by a top Google executive with an engineer's training and fondness for thoroughly analyzing a problem. In 2001, Mo Gawdat, a remarkable thinker whose gifts had landed him top positions in half a dozen companies and who - in his spare time - had created significant wealth, realized that he was desperately unhappy. A lifelong learner, he attacked the problem as an engineer would, examining all the provable facts and scrupulously following logic. When he was finished, he had discovered the equation for enduring happiness. Ten years later, that research saved him from despair when his college-aged son, Ali - also intellectually gifted - died during routine surgery. In dealing with the loss, Mo found his mission: he would pull off the type of 'moonshot' that he and his Google [X] colleagues were always aiming for: he would help ten million people become happier by pouring his happiness principles into a book and spreading its message around the world. One of Solve for Happy's key premises is that happiness is a default state. If we shape expectations to acknowledge the full range of possible events, unhappiness is on its way to being defeated. To steer clear of unhappiness traps, we must dispel the six illusions that cloud our thinking (e.g., the illusion of time, of control, and of fear); overcome the brain's seven deadly defects (e.g., the tendency to exaggerate, label, and filter), and embrace five ultimate truths (e.g., change is real, now is real, unconditional love is real). By means of several highly original thought experiments, Mo helps readers find enduring contentment by questioning some of the most fundamental aspects of their existence.

"Filosofferne har kun fortolket verden forskelligt, men det, som det kommer an på, er at forandre den." -Karl Marx Der hersker ingen tvivl om den vidtrækkende betydning, som Karl Marx har haft for politik i praksis. De seneste par hundrede års politiske historie lader sig simpelthen ikke skrive uden reference til sociale og politiske kræfter, konflikter og bevægelser, som er uløseligt forbundet med Marx. Marx' værk er uhyre omstridt, og dele af det må betragtes som tilbagevist af den historiske udvikling. Mange i moderne statskundskab vil ikke føle nogen gæld til Marx og helst tage afstand til en samfundsteori, der har været udgangspunkt for så mange totalitære styrer. Men samtidig rummer Marx forfatterskab fortsat så dybe indsigter og udfordrer så mange konventioner, at læsningen igen og igen giver anledning til både inspiration og anfægtelser. Jørn Loftager analyserer og diskuterer i denne bog Karl Marx' omfattende forfatterskab ud fra en klar overbevisning om, at man fortsat kan blive klogere af at studere denne monumentale skikkelse i moderne samfundsvidenskab og politik trods de samfundsmæssige følger af forfatterskabet. Indholdsoversigt Redaktionelt forord Kapitel 1. Marx liv, indflydelse og relevans Kapitel 2. Idealisme og materialisme Kapitel 3. Teori og kritik - fortolkning og forandring Kapitel 4.

'A lively, well-written, entertaining whodunit' THE TIMES Lose yourself in the sumptuous first novel in a new series of Golden Age mysteries set amid the lives of the glamorous Mitford sisters. It's 1919, and Louisa Cannon dreams of escaping her life of poverty in London, and most of all her oppressive and dangerous uncle. Louisa's salvation is a position within the Mitford household at Asthall Manor, in the Oxfordshire countryside. There she will become nurserymaid, chaperone and confidante to the Mitford sisters, especially sixteen-year-old Nancy - an acerbic, bright young woman in love with stories. But when a nurse - Florence Nightingale Shore, goddaughter of her famous namesake - is killed on a train in broad daylight, Nancy and amateur sleuth Louisa find that in postwar England, everyone has something to hide . . . Written by Jessica Fellowes, author of the number one-bestselling Downton Abbey books, The Mitford Murders is the perfect new obsession for fans of Daisy Goodwin, Anthony Horowitz and Agatha Christie - and is based on a real unsolved crime. 'An extraordinary meld of fact and fiction' GRAHAM NORTON 'True and glorious indulgence. A dazzling example of a Golden Age mystery' DAISY GOODWIN 'Exactly the sort of book you might enjoy with the fire blazing, the snow falling. The solution is neat and the writing always enjoyable' ANTHONY HOROWITZ 'Oh how delicious!

NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER - NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE SEATTLE TIMES This groundbreaking dual biography brings to life a pioneering English feminist and the daughter she never knew. Mary Wollstonecraft and Mary Shelley have each been the subject of numerous biographies, yet no one has ever examined their lives in one book--until now. In Romantic Outlaws, Charlotte Gordon reunites the trailblazing author who wrote A Vindication of the Rights of Woman and the Romantic visionary who gave the world Frankenstein --two courageous women who should have shared their lives, but instead shared a powerful literary and feminist legacy. In 1797, less than two weeks after giving birth to her second daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft died, and a remarkable life spent pushing against the boundaries of society's expectations for women came to an end. But another was just beginning. Wollstonecraft's daughter Mary was to follow a similarly audacious path. Both women had passionate relationships with several men, bore children out of wedlock, and chose to live in exile outside their native country. Each in her own time fought against the injustices women faced and wrote books that changed literary history. The private lives of both Marys were nothing less than the stuff of great Romantic drama, providing fabulous material for Charlotte Gordon, an accomplished historian and a gifted storyteller. Taking readers on a vivid journey across revolutionary France and Victorian England, she seamlessly interweaves the lives of her two protagonists in alternating chapters, creating a book that reads like a richly textured historical novel. Gordon also paints unforgettable portraits of the men in their lives, including the mercurial genius Percy Shelley, the unbridled libertine Lord Byron, and the brilliant radical William Godwin. "Brave, passionate, and visionary, they broke almost every rule there was to break," Gordon writes of Wollstonecraft and Shelley. A truly revelatory biography, Romantic Outlaws reveals the defiant, creative lives of this daring mother-daughter pair who refused to be confined by the rigid conventions of their era. Praise for Romantic Outlaws " An] impassioned dual biography . . . Gordon, alternating between the two chapter by chapter, binds their lives into a fascinating whole. She shows, in vivid detail, how mother influenced daughter, and how the daughter's struggles mirrored the mother's." -- The Boston Globe "Written with the galloping pace of a skilled novel peopled with fascinating characters . . . these women live on in its pages. . . . Thorough and irresistible." --The Seattle Times "Gordon unfolds the two stories in tandem, deftly balancing the gossipy aspects of her subjects' lives with their serious intellectual concerns." -- The New Yorker " A] thoughtful, intelligent and deeply felt book . . . Gordon has written a book about two women, a mother and her daughter, who changed not only the way we think, but the...

The classic study of alienation, creativity and the modern mind 'Excitingly written, with a sense of revelation' GUARDIAN THE OUTSIDER was an instant literary sensation when it was first published in 1956, thrusting its youthful author into the front rank of contemporary writers and thinkers. Wilson rationalised the psychological dislocation so characteristic of Western creative thinking into a coherent theory of alienation, and defined those affected by it as a type: the outsider. Through the works and lives of various artists, including Kafka, Camus, Hemingway, Hesse, Lawrence, Van Gogh, Shaw, Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, Wilson explored the psyche of the outsider, his effect on society and society's on him. Nothing that has happened in the decades since has made THE OUTSIDER any less relevant; it remains the seminal work on this most persistent of modern-day preoccupations.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2023 BOOKER PRIZE 'Masterful . . . [ This Other Eden ] has much to say to our times.' Guardian 'A testament of love . . . so real it could make you weep.' Danez Smith, New York Times 'A luminous, thought-provoking novel.' Esi Edugyan, author of Washington Black Set at the beginning of the twentieth century and inspired by historical events, This Other Eden tells the story of Apple Island: an enclave off the coast of the United States where waves of castaways - in flight from society and its judgment - have landed and built a home. Benjamin Honey- American, Bantu, Igbo- born enslaved- freed or fled at fifteen- aspiring orchardist, arrived on the island with his Irish wife, Patience, and discovered they could make a life together there. More than a century later, the Honeys' descendants remain, with an eccentric, diverse band of neighbours. Then comes the intrusion of 'civilization': officials determine to 'cleanse' the island, and a missionary schoolteacher selects one light-skinned boy to save. The rest will succumb to the authorities' institutions or cast themselves on the waters in a new Noah's Ark. Full of lyricism and power, Paul Harding's This Other Eden explores the hopes and dreams and resilience of those seen not to fit a world brutally intolerant of difference. 'Harding invites comparisons with authors such as William Faulkner, Robinson and even Elizabeth Strout . . . This Other Eden . . . begs to be widely read.' Spectator
The New York Times bestselling author of All the Stars and Teeth brings to life a highly romantic, Gothic-infused world of wealth, desire, and betrayal. Orphaned as a baby, nineteen-year-old Signa has been raised by a string of guardians, each more interested in her wealth than her well-being--and each has met an untimely end. Her remaining relatives are the elusive Hawthornes, an eccentric family living at Thorn Grove, an estate both glittering and gloomy. Its patriarch mourns his late wife through wild parties, while his son grapples for control of the family's waning reputation and his daughter suffers from a mysterious illness.

Bogen er en praktisk og visionær bog, der peger, på, hvordan man kan arbejde med at skabe den bedste oplevelse for de mennesker, der kommer i kirken. I folkekirken er der tradition for kun at være optaget af ydelsen: selve gudstjenesten, selve den kirkelige handling, selve koncerten, selve foredraget osv., men hvis man kun er optaget af ydelsen i sig selv, ja, så er man kun optaget af, hvad man leverer. I arbejdet med gæsteoplevelsen handler det om hele oplevelsen, altså også om, hvordan man leverer. Gæsteoplevelsen handler om alt det, der er omkring ydelsen. Det handler om, hvordan man er over for sine gæster.Denne bog er til dig, der gerne vil fremtidssikre folkekirken. Bogen er en praktisk og visionær bog, der peger, på, hvordan man kan arbejde med at skabe den bedste oplevelse for de mennesker, der kommer i kirken. Hvordan skal der tænkes i fremtidens folkekirke, og hvordan kan der arbejdes med gæsteoplevelsen? Med andre ord: Hvad skal der til, for at der også i fremtiden vil være en folkets kirke? Bogen er et ambitiøst forsøg på for første gang at arbejde med gæsteoplevelsen i folkekirken. Omtale "Visionær udgivelse om gæsteoplevelsen i folkekirken (...) Bogen er så en række konkrete vejledninger i, hvordan kirker kan gøre gæsteoplevelsen bedre (...) Hvis du holder af den danske folkekirke, så læs "Gæsteoplevelsen i folkekirken". Giv bogen til alle, der bliver valgt ind i et menighedsråd i 2024. Det er en ordre!" - Kirke.dk
'The poems of the Poetic Edda have waited a long time for a Modern English translation that would do them justice. Here it is at last (Odin be praised!) and well worth the wait. These amazing texts from a thirteenth-century Icelandic manuscript are of huge historical, mythological, and literary importance, containing the lion's share of information that survives today about the gods and heroes of pre-Christian Scandinavians, their unique vision of the beginning and end of the world, etc. Jackson Crawford's modern versions of these poems are authoritative and fluent and often very gripping. With their individual headnotes and complementary general introduction, they supply today's readers with most of what they need to know in order to understand and appreciate the beliefs, motivations, and values of the Vikings.'-Dick Ringler, Professor Emeritus of English and Scandinavian Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison

En gotlandsk snedker og småbørnsfar fra Slite bliver skudt ned med koldt blod på en campingplads på Fårö. Sagen bliver Karin Jacobssons første store efterforskning, siden hun tiltrådte stillingen som kriminalchef i Anders Knutas’ midlertidige fravær. Sporene leder hen til et stort kalkstensbrud i Slite, russiske smuglere og lyssky byggeaffærer. Men så sker endnu et mord, og metoden er den samme: Likvidering ved skud i panden og i maven. Det nye mord kuldkaster hele efterforskningen, Karin – og Anders Knutas, der nu er vendt tilbage til jobbet – må finde nye spor og motiver. Journalisten Johan Berg følger intenst sagen og rapporterer til avisens regionalregion i Stockholm, men som sagen skrider frem, plages han mere og mere af etiske skrupler og bekymring over det komplicerede forhold til sin store kærlighed Emma.
An Instant Sunday Times Bestseller 'A profoundly urgent intervention' Naomi Klein From one of the most influential thinkers of our time, an enlightening, essential account of how a fear of gender is fuelling reactionary politics around the world Judith Butler, the ground-breaking philosopher whose work has redefined how we think about gender and sexuality, confronts the attacks on gender that have become central to right-wing movements today. Global networks have formed ‘anti-gender ideology movements’ dedicated to circulating a fantasy that gender is a dangerous threat to families, local cultures, civilization – and even ‘man’ himself. Inflamed by the rhetoric of public figures, this movement has sought to abolish reproductive justice, undermine protections against violence, and strip trans and queer people of their rights. But what, exactly, is so disturbing about gender? In this vital, courageous book, Butler carefully examines how ‘gender’ has become a phantasm for emerging authoritarian regimes, fascist formations and transexclusionary feminists, and the concrete ways in which this phantasm works. Operating in tandem with deceptive accounts of critical race theory and xenophobic panics about migration, the anti-gender movement demonizes struggles for equality and leaves millions of people vulnerable to subjugation. An essential intervention into one of the most fraught issues of our moment, Who's Afraid of Gender? is a galvanizing call to make a broad coalition with all those who struggle for equality and fight injustice. Imagining new possibilities for freedom and solidarity, Butler offers us an essentially hopeful work that is both timely and timeless.

'Read this book. Saving Planet Earth starts right here, right now' Stella McCartney From the bestselling author of Eating Animals, a brilliantly fresh and accessible take on climate change - and what we can do about it 'Climate change is the greatest crisis humankind has ever faced. It is that straightforward, that fraught. Where were you when you made your decision?' It is all too easy to feel paralysed and hopeless in the face of climate crisis, but the truth is that every one of us has the power to change history's course. We have done it before: making collective sacrifices to protect our freedoms, our families, our way of life. And we can do it again. In this extraordinarily powerful and deeply personal book, Jonathan Safran Foer lays bare the battle to save the planet. Calling each one of us to action, he answers the most urgent question of all: what will it take for things to change? It all starts with what we eat for breakfast. 'Eye-opening' New York Times Book Review 'Safran Foer's new approach gives me hope' Observer
"Jeg skulle have dræbt ham lige på stedet," tænker Art Keller, da han flere år senere mindes sit første møde med Adán Barrera i en træningshal i Culiacán, Mexico. Dengang var Adán kun en splejset dreng og yngste skud på stammen i Barrera-familien. Men netop den familie skulle blive drivkraften i sammenslutningen af de mexicanske klaner, Federación, som er hovedleverandør af den narko, der oversvømmer gaderne i USA. Den sammenslutning, som narkoagenten Art Keller skulle vie sit liv til at bekæmpe. Romanen er en stor og grum krønike om det amerikanske samfund og amerikansk udenrigspolitik gennem næsten 30 år, fra dannelsen af Federación i 1970'erne over Iran-Contra-skandalen i 80'erne til de beskidte narkokrige i 90'erne. Scenen skifter fra Hell's Kitchen-kvarteret i New York over regeringskontorerne i Washington til den latinamerikanske jungle, Tijuanas gader og ørkenområderne i det sydvestlige USA. I hundenes vold er en sindsoprivende spændende historie om kærlighed og hævn, politik og indflydelse, korruption og ære, og romanens omdrejningspunkt er den uhellige alliance mellem de latinamerikanske narkokarteller, mafiaen i USA og den amerikanske regering.

'Literature is not innocent,' stated Georges Bataille in this extraordinary 1957 collection of essays, arguing that only by acknowledging its complicity with the knowledge of evil can literature communicate fully and intensely. These literary profiles of eight authors and their work, including Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights , Baudelaire's Les Fleurs du Mal and the writings of Sade, Kafka and Sartre, explore subjects such as violence, eroticism, childhood, myth and transgression, in a work of rich allusion and powerful argument.
From her reflections on African American life and hardship in Just Give Me a Cool Drink of Water 'fore I Diiie to her revolutionary celebrations of womanhood in Phenomenal Woman and Still I Rise, and her elegant tributes to dignitaries Bill Clinton and Nelson Mandela (On the Pulse of Morning and His Day Is Done, respectively), every inspiring word of Maya Angelou's poetry is included in the pages of this volume.
