'One of the best historical novels by anyone, ever' David Mitchell'Japan's greatest twentieth-century author' Graham Greene'A masterpiece. There can be no higher praise' Daily TelegraphWith an introduction by Martin Scorsese.Jesuit priest Sebastian Rodrigues sets sail for Japan in 1640, full of idealistic fire. But the cold land he arrives in has no place for missionaries: the Tokugawa shogunate has banned Christianity, and believers face torture and execution. Living in hiding, leading worship in secret, Rodrigues begins to question the true meaning of compassion - and the limits of his own belief.This stunning work of historical fiction - introduced by Martin Scorsese, who adapted it into a film - is one of literature's deepest explorations of doubt, fellowship, and enduring faith.Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: timeless storytelling by icons of literature, hand-picked from around the globe.Translated by William Johnston.Shusaku Endo (1923-1996) was one of the greatest novelists of postwar Japan. Baptised as a Roman Catholic as a child, his work explores the relationship between East and West from his unique perspective as a Japanese Christian. Endo won the Akutagawa Prize and the Yomiuri Literary Prize, was nominated for the Nobel Prize several times, and received an Order of Culture from the Japanese government. Among his other novels are Deep River, The Samurai and The Sea and Poison, all published by Pushkin Press.William Johnston (1925-2010) was born in Belfast. He entered the Jesuit priesthood and was sent to their mission in Japan in 1951. He would spend most of the rest of his life there, teaching English at Tokyo's Sophia University, writing on mysticism, and practising aspects of both Catholicism and Zen Buddhism.

Why we crave enjoyment from news, how our news use divides us, and what we can do to create better news and more informed citizens. TikTok. Short-form reels. Late-night TV monologues. Podcasts. The way news is delivered has changed dramatically and so has the way we consume it. Now, we no longer look to the news just to learn and be informed; we expect enjoyment as well. In Enjoyment Is Breaking News, Jennifer Hoewe explains how and why this shift toward news enjoyment occurred and what we can do to address the information crisis we now face. Evidence shows that enjoyment-driven decisions are leaving us less informed—despite what we might expect—because they lead us to ignore other news that matters. This book explains why we don’t always select the best sources of news, how we respond to the news sources we do select, and how that information impacts our political knowledge and decisions. The author also offers solutions for how to improve news creation and news use moving forward. Specifically, she shows how news consumers can escape their “self-righteous” consumption cycles; how news and social media companies can play a role in curbing our automatic amplification of enjoyable news; and how we can all do better when it comes to the information we seek and share.

How We Became Less Informed and More Divided (and How to Fix It)

Enjoyment Is Breaking News

A #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER&nbsp;Heroes&nbsp;and&nbsp;Nashville&nbsp;star Hayden Panettiere reclaims her story in a remarkably candid memoir.&nbsp;Hayden Panettiere's career in entertainment began before she was old enough to walk. From early commercials to film and television roles in hits like Remember the Titans, her career unfolded in the public eye, resulting in tremendous success by her early teens. She had become a fixture of early-2000s pop culture, earning acclaim for performances in Heroes, Nashville (which earned her two Golden Globe nominations), and beyond-while quietly carrying the weight of expectations that came with being Hollywood's "It girl."Behind the image was a far more complicated reality. As Hayden entered adulthood, the industry that once felt playful grew unforgiving as she learned by experience the pressure placed on young performers, the hefty price that often comes with fame, and how quickly someone else can take control of your story. She recounts being scrutinized by tabloids, watching her body and private pain become public property, and performing storylines on-screen that echoed trauma she was living through off-camera.In this memoir, Hayden shares a rare and intimate glimpse into her life behind closed doors, opening up about postpartum depression, addiction and recovery, trauma, domestic abuse, and loss. She holds nothing back as she reflects on the moments she calls "lifequakes"- experiences that fractured her sense of self and forced her to rebuild it from the inside out. In This Is Me: A Reckoning Hayden showcases her most vulnerable role yet. . .this is her story, on her terms.

The Tempest

Reckless Reihe

Ich habe mich seinem Befehl gebeugt:

Bin seiner elendig perfekten Dominanz verfallen, während er eine eiserne Kette um meine Seele schlingt - das freie Ende fest in seiner Hand. Er thront weiterhin in Palästen aus Gold und Lügen, während ich in den Überresten seiner Spiele und Intrigen ersticke.

Ich bin nicht frei, denn er lässt mich nicht gehen. Ebenso wenig darf ich bleiben, denn er stößt mich fort. Zwischen uns klafft ein Riss, gemeißelt aus Geheimnissen und Verrat. Aus all dem, was er atmet.



Ich besitze dich: 

Habe mich in dich eingebrannt - so tief, dass Narben bleiben werden. Meine Narben.

Du hast dich in meinem Netz verstrickt, College Girl, weil ich es so wollte. Du bist gerannt, weil ich es so wollte. Und du wirst wiederkommen - weil ich es so will. Wage es nie wieder, an meiner kalten, goldenen Seele zu kratzen. Meine Dämonen ins Licht zu schieben. Das überlebt deine süße, devote Psyche nicht.



In einer Welt, in der jedes gelüftete Geheimnis einen Preis fordert, erfährt Alison, woraus die Alpha Apex wirklich geschmiedet sind.

Gefangen zwischen alten Wunden und neuen Intrigen erkennt sie, dass Flucht niemals Freiheit bedeutet - sondern nur eine andere Form der Gefangenschaft.

Umgeben von absurdem Reichtum und dem giftigen Puls des Avaris steht sie vor einer Entscheidung: Sich in süße Naivität zu hüllen - oder die Masken herunterzureißen. Jene dunkle Lüge ins Licht zu zerren, deretwegen sie überhaupt geflohen ist.

Schnell begreift Alison: Es gibt viele Wege hinaus - doch keiner führt sie fort von Adrians Dämonen. Was wird sie legitimieren? Wird die krankhafte Obsession dreier monochromer Seelen, ihre Frauen, für immer in die Nacht verbannen? Und wie viel Schwärze erträgt ein weißes Herz, ehe es selbst ergraut?

Reckless Escape

This is the first book to provide a comprehensive study of the earliest, missionary-mediated translations of Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations in late Qing China (1840-1895). Moving beyond the iconic 1902 translation by Yan Fu, it uncovers a formative half-century of conceptual co-production when Western missionaries and Chinese literati collaboratively refracted Smithian ideas. Through meticulous analysis of neglected texts, the book demonstrates how selective excerpting and the traditional hermeneutic strategy of ge-yi ("concept matching") forged a hybrid economic lexicon. This process embedded core concepts such as value, labor, and wealth within indigenous discourses of state strength (fuqiang, ¿¿, fù qiáng, "seeking wealth and power"), creating a mediated "first Wealth of Nations" for China.Methodologically bridging Translation Studies, Conceptual History, and Global History of Economic Thought, this work offers a new model for analyzing the transnational journey of canonical texts. It resolves the longstanding gap in understanding how Smith's foundational ideas were initially made accessible and relevant in a non-Western context. Timely in this 250th anniversary of Smith's masterpiece, the book reshapes understanding of the origins of modern Chinese economic thought and the global circulation of economic knowledge.

Stop running toward someone else’s definition of success, and start intentionally shaping your own. This prequel to Aesop’s famous tortoise and hare fable shows exhausted professionals how to shift from chasing external validation to creating internal meaning and alignment. Stop chasing visibility. Start creating meaning. In today’s high-pressure workplace, professionals are depleted from constantly proving themselves to others—yet struggling to find genuine satisfaction in their work. What if the breakthrough isn’t working harder within the system but instead reimagining what success means to you? Stop Chasing, Start Creating reveals the untold story of Tano the tortoise before his famous race with the hare. In this prequel to the beloved Aesop’s fable, we discover that Tano wasn’t always the steady, purposeful creature we know. He once chased visibility, approval, and validation just like the rest of us—until a moment of awakening changed everything. Through Tano’s journey from external pressure to internal clarity, readers discover the crucial difference between chasing meaning and creating it. Grounded in motivation science, this framework shifts professionals from extrinsic motivation (external rewards, recognition, and belonging) to intrinsic motivation (purpose, contribution, and alignment). Perfect for burned-out professionals in healthcare, education, nonprofit management, and other purpose-driven fields, this story-first approach offers the metaphor-rich reflection modern workers crave without feeling like another productivity manual.
