Annie Jones always assumed adulthood would mean adventure: a high-powered career; life in a big, bustling city; and travels to far-flung places she’d longed to see. But her reality turned out differently. As the years passed, Annie was still in the same small town running an independent bookstore—the kind of life Nora Ephron dreamed.

Story
En esta colección de textos concebidos en distintas partes del mundo, Michèle Petit analiza el lugar del arte y la literatura en el contexto de las crisis que se han venido multiplicando en los últimos años: guerras, cambio climático, pandemias, etcétera. Se trata aquí de la belleza que permite transfigurar lo peor después de una tragedia; de la transmisión cultural en el exilio, que es la suerte de tantos niños, mujeres y hombres en la actualidad; de la forma en que el lenguaje, cuando se acerca al canto, nos permite sintonizarnos con el espacio y con eso que llamamos naturaleza.

Story
Offering answers to those questions and more through a mix of travelogue and social history, A Month of Sundays entertainingly charts the story of what author Daniel Gray argues is the People's Day. Told through Sundays whiled away in places from the Hebrides to Hyde Park – via Sunderland, Scarborough, Liverpool and beyond – Gray's latest book is a charming journey in time and place. A Month of Sundays offers nostalgia, people's history and affectionate, absorbing writing – a book drenched in the scent of gravy and summoning the faint sound of church bells.

Story
Doris Dörrie ist eine Wohnende wider Willen. Nie wollte sie sich niederlassen, fest einrichten, Wurzeln schlagen, aber wie andere wohnen, hat sie immer schon fasziniert. In Kalifornien geht sie zu Hausbesichtigungen, nur um sich andere Leben in anderen Räumen auszumalen. Auf ihren unzähligen Reisen nach Japan, Mexiko, Marokko, Amerika und Südeuropa sieht sie, wie eng das Wohnen an die jeweilige Kultur geknüpft ist. Und bei ihrer Arbeit als Filmemacherin wird sie zur Expertin für das Erschaffen künstlicher Wohnwelten.

«Somos seres entretejidos de relatos, bordados con hilos de voces, de historia, de filosofía y de ciencia, de leyes y leyendas. Por eso, la lectura seguirá cuidándonos si cuidamos de ella. No puede desaparecer lo que nos salva. Los libros nos recuerdan, serenos y siempre dispuestos a desplegarse ante nuestros ojos, que la salud de las palabras enraíza en las editoriales, en las librerías, en los círculos de lecturas compartidas, en las bibliotecas, en las escuelas. Es allí donde imaginamos el futuro que nos une».

What if we weren't intimidated by the task of living with full-throated joy? In this collection of short essays, Shemaiah Gonzalez recommends a fresh view on life, through her own experiences and discovery of finding joy in both the mundane and magnificent. In energetic prose, Gonzalez finds delight in naps, capybaras, and wandering the English countryside—and encourages listeners to see the joy present in these moments as well. When we turn our attention to the joy around us, we become attuned to God's constant presence with us and in all these things.

Story
A world in perfect balance—so claims Emerson in Compensation, an essay that pulses with quiet defiance and deep assurance. No gain without loss, no misstep without lesson, no fortune without its hidden tax. It is neither fate nor blind justice but a living rhythm, an invisible hand that rights every scale, even when human eyes fail to see. Emerson does not preach; he unfolds. The idea seeps in, settles, challenges. His words are not doctrine but a lens—through which prosperity and misfortune reveal themselves as two faces of the same coin.

Black literature is perhaps the most powerful, polarizing force in the modern American zeitgeist. Today—as Black novels draw authoritarian ire, as Black memoirs shape public debates, as Black polemics inspire protest petitions—it’s more important than ever to highlight the places that center these stories: Black bookstores. Traversing teeming metropolises and tiny towns, Prose to the People explores a these spaces, chronicling these Black bookstore's past and present lives.

Shortly thereafter, his wife died, prompting him to write a defence of suicide in God's eyes. She was soon followed by his 18 year old daughter died. Then Donne fell gravely ill. Physicians were called, but none could agree on what to do. It seemed certain that he would die.

"Auch der Mutigste von uns hat nur selten den Mut zu dem, was er eigentlich weiß ..."(Friedrich Nietzsche: Götzendämmerung)Eine heitere Psychologie bedarf des unverstellten Blickes, der "fröhlichen Wissenschaft", der offenen phänomenologischen Schau. Auch wenn man bei einigem in diesem Buch, wie z.B. den Ausführungen über das Bild des Sokrates, zurückschrecken mag, die Einforderung Nietzsches des unbedingt freien Blicks steht - bis heute - spannungsvoll im Raum."Ich mißtraue allen Systematikern und gehe ihnen aus dem Weg. Der Wille zum System ist ein Mangel an Rechtschaffenheit.

"Moi, c’est mon corps qui pense. Il ressent plus finement, plus complètement que mon cerveau. Quand mon corps pense, c’est-à-dire quand je... quand il... alors tout le reste se tait. À ces moments-là, toute ma peau a une âme." Sensuels, libérés, parfois même d’une ironie cinglante, les textes de Colette publiés ici célèbrent au féminin le corps, l’amour et la jouissance, la volonté farouche de s’émanciper pour "être en femme, simplement".

Step back to 1929 with Is Sex Necessary?, a satirical spoof on the era’s obsession with psychoanalysis and forbidden topics. E.B. White and James Thurber, masters of wit, deliver a faux-scientific treatise on the “mysteries” of sex, skewering outdated gender roles and societal norms with sharp humor. This audiobook, narrated by a modern voice, offers a glimpse into a time capsule, complete with its absurd theories and delightfully dry satire. Prepare for a tongue-in-cheek romp through the absurdities of human behavior and a humorous reflection of a bygone era.

La traducción al latín de la obra de Maimónides "Moreh Nevukhim" (Guía para Perplejos) es considerada la obra judía más influyente de los últimos milenios. Marcó el inicio de la escolástica, un movimiento nutrido por pensadores judíos. Impresa por la primera imprenta mecánica de Gutenberg, su influencia se extendió hasta el Quinto Concilio de Letrán (1512-1517), donde se instó a los eruditos a reconciliar la teología y la filosofía. La Guía revolucionó el currículo escolar al reintegrar las leyes del pensamiento en el ámbito de la fe, influyendo en el principio de razón suficiente de Leibniz.

Der Arbeit auf der Spur, beobachtet sie ihr Umfeld und kommt mit den unterschiedlichsten Menschen ins Gespräch: mit dem Immobilienhai im Haus gegenüber, mit der Obdachlosen an der Bushaltestelle, mit der eigenen Schwiegermutter, die zur Pflegerin ihres Mannes wird.
