The Art of Waiting

A brilliant exploration of the natural, medical, psychological, and political facets of fertilityWhen Belle Boggs's The Art of Waiting was published in Orion in 2012, it went viral, leading to republication in Harper's Magazine, an interview on NPR's The Diane Rehm Show, and a spot at the intersection of highbrow and brilliant in New York magazine's Approval Matrix.In that heartbreaking essay, Boggs eloquently recounts her realization that she might never be able to conceive. She searches the apparently fertile world around her--the emergence of thirteen-year cicadas, the birth of eaglets near her rural home, and an unusual gorilla pregnancy at a local zoo--for signs that she is not alone. Boggs also explores other aspects of fertility and infertility: the way longing for a child plays out in the classic Coen brothers film Raising

Sparring Partners

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER  John Grisham is the acknowledged master of the legal thriller. In his first collection of novellas, law is a common thread, but America s favorite storyteller has several surprises in store.  Homecoming takes us back to Ford County, the fictional setting of many of John Grisham s unforgettable stories. Jake Brigance is back, but he s not in the courtroom. He s called upon to help an old friend, Mack Stafford, a former lawyer in Clanton, who three years earlier became a local legend when he stole money from his clients, divorced his wife, filed for bankruptcy, and left his family in the middle of the night, never to be heard from again until now. Now Mack is back, and he s leaning on his old pals, Jake and Harry Rex, to help him return. His homecoming does not go as planned.In  Strawberry Moon, we meet Cody Wallace, a young death row inmate only three hours away from execution. His lawyers can t save him, the courts slam the door, and the governor says no to a last-minute request for clemency. As the clock winds down, Cody has one final request. The  Sparring Partners are the Malloy brothers, Kirk and Rusty, two successful young lawyers who inherited a once prosperous firm when its founder, their father, was sent to prison. Kirk and Rusty loathe each other, and speak to each other only when necessary. As the firm disintegrates, the resulting fiasco falls into the lap of Diantha Bradshaw, the only person the partners trust. Can she save the Malloys, or does she take a stand for the first time in her career and try to save herself?By turns suspenseful, hilarious, powerful, and moving, these are three of the greatest stories John Grisham has ever told.

Fist of the North Star, Vol. 8

O komikse (Manga) v slovenčine:V postapokalyptickom svete sa ľudstvo zdvihlo z popola totálnej jadrovej vojny do nočnej mory nekonečného utrpenia. Je to čas chaosu. Vojvodcovia a gangy zúrivých nájazdníkov vládnu nad rozpadnutými ruinami civilizácie, terorizujú a zotročujú preživších.

Ak Kenshiro porazí Southera, nastane osudná bitka medzi Raohom a Tokim – konfrontácia medzi pohybom a nehybnosťou, medzi šelmou a pokojom – v ktorej ani jeden majster neustúpi ani o milimeter. Shichosei, hviezda, ktorá predznamenáva smrť, svieti nad hlavou, keď Toki uvoľní to, čo by mohol byť jeho posledný úder.  O komikse (Manga) v angličtine:In the original classic manga set in a postapocalyptic wasteland ruled by savage gangs, a hero appears to bring justice to the guilty.

LOS BUDDENBROOK

La novela que le valió a Thomas Mann el Premio Nobel: una fabulosa saga histórica sobre la decadencia de una familia burguesa en el siglo XIX Publicada en 1901, Los Buddenbrook narra la decadencia de una familia burguesa alemana a lo largo del siglo XIX. En un gran fresco que va desde 1835, cuando aún se recordaban las guerras napoleónicas, hasta 1877, poco antes de la fundación del Imperio Alemán, Mann no solo captura un descenso social, sino también las fuerzas históricas que trastocaron la existencia decimonónica y alumbraron las incertidumbres de los tiempos modernos. Basada en su propia novela familiar, la historia anuncia además temas esenciales de su obra posterior, como la compleja relación entre la vida y el arte, o el contraste entre la esfera pública y la privada.

Every Day Oracle

The spirit of Madame Lenormand-the most famous cartomant--is captured in this oracle deck, inspired by traditional Italy. Publisher Review: Tarot cards are packed with layers of imagery. You can approach a Tarot card from so many angles: traditional meaning, astrological, elemental, or numeric correspondences, symbolic interpretation, intuitive messages, etc. In fact, although we all love the depth and empowerment that we get from our Tarot decks, let's admit it--sometimes we just want an easy answer, an old-school fortune-telling. If you, like me, get this occasional craving, it is good to have an oracle deck on hand. Although I like to sometimes play with oracles in general, I find that there is nothing like a historic oracle (such as a Lenormand or Sibilla) for clear, quick answers. The Every Day Oracle is, according to the booklet, an authentic...read more.
