The Italian Holiday - Victoria Springfield - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

The Italian Holiday - Victoria Springfield - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

Shortlisted for the RNA''s Joan Hessayon Award for New Writers Sun, sea and spaghetti... Italy was Bluebell''s dream destination, but taking her granny''s place on the Loving and Knitting magazine competition holiday she''d won wasn''t quite what she''d had in mind. For one thing she didn''t knit and for the other...well being single probably discounted her from the love category too. But a free holiday is a free holiday and it''s the perfect escape from her lacklustre life. Michela didn''t think she''d be returning home to Italy so soon, a new job at her cousin''s restaurant on the harbour of Positano was a dream gig, miles away from the grey London clouds. This time though, she vowed not to fall into old habits, Stefano was the past and now her future in her old hometown beckoned. But under the Italian skies a whole host of possibilities await and maybe happy-ever-after is just a plane-ride away... Readers are loving The Italian Holiday! /h2 ''Loved this book - a charming tale set in Minori, on the beautiful Amalfi coast, a story of unlikely holiday companions, friendship and yes a touch of romance'' ''A sunny feel-good book, with a colourful description of the Amalfi coast that will have you reaching for your passport!'' ''This is a brilliant first novel, and I hope it will be the first of many'' ''A wonderfully crafted novel with twists and turns along the way. Definitely a five star book'' ''Thoroughly enjoyed this book, vivid descriptions and lovable characters!'' ''A lovely story of love, friendship and family. Victoria''s debut novel and definitely worthy of five stars''

Like most in the city, Detective Eddie Giral has already lost so much under Occupation: the people he once loved, the job he once believed in. And his latest investigation into the murder of a black-marketeer has made it clearer than ever: Eddie is no longer just catching criminals. He''s working for them. Because when a German trader is the next to die, the authorities decide it''s innocent civilians who will pay the price - unless Eddie can find the killer in time.As hunger grows, tensions rise and a fierce rebellion brews, Eddie will tread a dark path between doing whatever it takes to live with the enemy... and also with himself. ***** PRAISE FOR BANQUET OF BEGGARS : ''An excellent third instalment in a series set in a frighteningly well-imagined world'' DAILY MAIL ''A novel that forces readers to ask difficult questions of ourselves ... establishes Eddie Giral as one of the most fascinating protagonists in current historical crime'' ALIS HAWKINS ''A book that takes us into the heart of Occupied Paris ...

White Tears Brown Scars - Ruby Hamad - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

''P owerful and provocative'' - Dr. Ibram X. Kendi, author of the Sunday Times bestselling How to be an Antiracist '' A MUST read for any white women who consider themselves "feminist"'' - Scarlett Curtis, author of the Sunday Times bestselling Feminists Don''t Wear Pink ''An explosive and revelatory argument for deconstructing and confronting the entrenched notions of white supremacy and superiority that still reign today.'' - Mireille Harper ''How is it that we have been so conditioned to privilege the emotional comfort of white people?''White tears possess a potency that is rarely acknowledged or commented upon, but they have long been used as a dangerous and insidious tool against people of colour, weaponised in order to invoke sympathy and divert blame. Taking us from the slave era, when white women fought in court to keep ''ownership'' of their slaves, through centuries of colonialism, when women offered a soft face for brutal tactics, to the modern workplace, in which tears serve as a defense to counter accusations of bias and micro-aggressions, White Tears/Brown Scars tells a charged story of white women''s active participation in campaigns of oppression. It offers a long-overdue validation of the experiences of women of colour and an urgent call-to-arms in the need for true intersectionality.With rigour and precision, Hamad builds a powerful argument about the legacy of white superiority that we are socialised within, a reality that we must all apprehend in order to fight.

Louise Bourgeois - Jean Francois Jaussaud - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

A rare glimpse inside the private world of Louise Bourgeois, one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century."Readers who already love the artist will be thrilled by the richness of this book, and those who didn''t know her work before will discover a complex, brilliant, and deeply emotional artist who used her creative gifts to reshape the world around her." – Architectural Digest "Bound in soft sky–blue linen cloth and full of suggestive photography, the pleasure begins when the book is first held, its heft and weight, the mix of textures and fonts suggest something to be savored, then saved." – New York Journal of Books Louise Bourgeois was one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century and photographer Jean–François Jaussaud met her for the first time in 1994 at her studio in Brooklyn. But it was not before she had interrogated him about every aspect of his life that he earned her trust. A rare photo session was set up in Spring 1995, under one condition: she would destroy the photographs if she didn''t like them… Jaussaud agreed to it and passed the test.He was then given carte blanche to photograph her studio and her house in Chelsea, and he kept coming back for another eleven years. Jaussaud''s photographs of Louise Bourgeois in her house and studio are a moving testimony showing how completely implicated in her work she was, to the point that her private life and her work were inextricably interwoven. Louise Bourgeois: An Intimate Portrait also contains: •Extracts from Bourgeois'' diary • Personal notes • Short texts from Jaussaud, Marie–Laure Bernadac, and Xavier Girard. This is a must–have addition to any serious admirer of Louise Bourgeois as well as a fascinating entry point for those just discovering her groundbreaking explorations of the family, sexuality, bodies, death, and the unconscious.

The Stars Too Fondly - Emily Hamilton - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

The Stars Too Fondly - Emily Hamilton - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

Part space odyssey, part Sapphic romcom and all spaceship-stealing fun, Emily Hamilton''s breathtaking debut is a wild tale of galaxy-spanning friendship, improbable love, and wonder as vast as the universe itself . ''I love the way the relationship between Cleo and Billie developed. I fell in love with them, with their relationship. And they made me cry a lot. AND THE LONGING !!!!!!!!'' Reader review, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''Absolutely gut-wrenching and gorgeously written. This book sucked me in instantly'' Reader review, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐So, here''s the thing: Cleo and her friends really, truly didn''t mean to steal this spaceship. They just wanted to know why, twenty years ago, the entire Providence crew vanished without a trace. But then the stupid dark matter engine started all on its own, and now these four twenty-somethings are en route to Proxima Centauri, unable to turn around, and being harangued by a snarky hologram that has the face and attitude of the ship''s missing captain, Billie.Cleo has dreamt of being an astronaut all her life, and Earth is kind of a lost cause at this point, so this should be one of those blessings in disguise people talk about. But as the ship gets deeper into space, the laws of physics start twisting, old mysteries start crawling back to life, and Cleo''s initially combative relationship with Billie turns into something deeper and more desperate than either woman is prepared for. Lying somewhere in the subspace between science fantasy and sapphic rom-com, The Stars Too Fondly is a soaring near-future adventure about dark matter and alternate dimensions, leaving home and finding family, and the galaxy-saving power of letting yourself love and be loved. '' I''m a huge fan of that bombastic, earnest, interdimensional aspect that 80''s sci-fi had, so seeing it here, just as earnest and openly Queer , was a real treat'' Reader review, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐'' The vibes of this book are seriously so great .
