Steel D: The Portrait / LF

The Portrait

'Tender, humorous and moving' COSMOPOLITAN'Visceral, wild, and so beautifully necessary.' SALMA EL-WARDANY, author of THESE IMPOSSIBLE THINGS'Radojevic's stories and fragments are so sharp-edged they could draw blood. Fierce, funny and angry.' CATHERINE MAYER, author TIME/LIFE***Across thirty striking tales, Monika Radojevic weaves together the surreal with the everyday, confronting the experiences of contemporary womanhood with a tender ferocity shot through with humour. A woman walks into a bar, and nobody notices. A newly married couple are punished for their childlessness with an unsettling nocturnal invasion. A girl trades her vocal cords for a chance at freedom. A door-to-door salesperson offers the antidote to women's fear - but it comes at a high price. Bubbling with an urgent rage that occasionally tips over into vengeance, Radojevic deftly charts the moments that make a life: from the warmth of first love to the recognition of anger, and the possibilities that take shape as we find or lose our ability to speak. A Beautiful Lack of Consequence explores the ways in which the world bends and breaks women with the pressure it puts on them - and what happens when those women snap back. Moving and irreverent, dark and otherworldly, A Beautiful Lack of Consequence is a blazing debut collection from the winner of the #Merky Books New Writers' Prize. ***'Thoughtful, introspective and darkly funny' READER REVIEW'So beautiful and raw' READER REVIEW'Biting . . . a must read!' READER REVIEW

A Beautiful Lack of Consequence

The inventor behind the Leatherman multi-tool and founder of the beloved company presents his inspiring personal story as a practical how-to guide for entrepreneurs, artists, and creatives of all kinds who want to pursue their own big ideas. On a budget trip to Europe in 1975, Tim Leatherman started making a list of ideas for what to do with the rest of his life. After months of fixing the plumbing in cheap hotels and toiling on his temperamental Fiat, Tim added to his list of ideas: “add pliers to pocket knife.” Little did he know he would spend the following four decades building an iconic American company that would go on to manufacture more than 90 million multi-tools in its Portland, Oregon, factory. His latest multi-tool is a book. In The Leatherman Book, Tim uses the pieces of his story as tools to help dreamers, entrepreneurs and creatives of all kinds build their own big ideas. Each chapter shares valuable insight into how Tim built his invention and his company—and the lessons he’s learned doing it—including: • You don’t have to be “qualified” to pursue your big idea • If you’re serious about your principles, they become your competitive advantage • Your most important tool is a willingness to figure things out as you go along Weaving storytelling, advice, and never-before-seen photos, this is a visionary and intimate look at a true American icon, meant to inspire and enable dreamers to bring their ideas to life.

Dandelion is Dead

For more than two decades, Marwan Barghouti has been held in an Israeli prison cell, much of that time in total isolation. Yet his voice has never been forgotten. Described by the Economist as 'the world's most important prisoner' and often referred to as Palestine's Mandela, Barghouti remains the most widely supported Palestinian political leader. As a long-standing advocate of peace grounded in justice and equality, he has become an enduring symbol of unity and hope - even from behind bars. Unbroken brings together, for the first time, a powerful and intimate portrait of Barghouti's life and struggle for a free Palestine: private letters to his family, personal writings, correspondence with global public figures, press interviews, public statements and rare personal photographs. This is his story, in his own words. Unsilenced, unbroken.

In Pursuit of Freedom for Palestine

Unbroken

An adoptive parent and historian delves into the differences of families made by law, not biology-- and shows us the deep value of those differences Adoption touches on some of our most vexing social questions, about race and sexuality, abortion rights, economic inequality, even foreign policy and global poverty. More than that, it prods us in tender places, reminding us of our own questions about belonging and separation, identity and alienation, our worries about what is determined by fate and what is freely choose. Blending personal memoir, history, and broader reflection on American culture, Ordinary Days and Tender Places offers a fresh take on adoption. As an historian and an adoptive parent, Bendroth takes seriously the criticisms and the personal pain many adoptees face, but she also invites readers to take a bigger view. This book asks us to turn the mirror on ourselves and consider the peculiarities of what we consider “normal” family life. In the end, our questions and controversies obscure a basic fact: raising children born to someone else is a time-honored human practice. In the past and in many cultures today, our modern American ideal, the two-parent biologically-related nuclear family, is an oddity. Within the long history of humanity our ideas about kinship and our beliefs about what constitutes a “normal” household are surprisingly narrow and, in the end, not all that helpful. Bendroth introduces readers to new ways of thinking about adoption, exploring the history of American families and children as well as fascinating findings by biologists and evolutionary anthropologists about kinship practices, genetics and inheritance, even motherhood itself. This is, in other words, a book about adoption and much more. It is an invitation to readers to reflect on their own lives, to think deeply about our human need to connect, to love, and belong.

Ordinary Days and Tender Places

In her one-of-a-kind voice, Diane Keaton shares the wisdom she's accumulated through the years as a mother, daughter, actress, artist, and international style icon. From a mortifying encounter with a makeup artist to an awkward excursion to Victoria's Secret with her teenage daughter, Keaton reveals candid moments from her life in and out of the public eye. She recounts her experiences with the many men in her life-including Warren Beatty, Jack Nicholson, and Al Pacino-shows how our ideals of beauty change as we age, and explains why a life well lived may be the most beautiful thing of all. 'Diane Keaton wasn't just an actress: she was a force. A woman who showed us that being yourself is the is the most powerful thing you can be' Octavia Spencer 'She's talented, iconic, quirky . . . And wonderfully blunt. This is just a small sampling of the reasons we love Diane Keaton, and they all permeate the pages of her new memoir' Elle 'A brilliant actress who time and again laid herself bare to tell our stories' Nancy Meyers 'Her influence on culture, fashion, art and women can't be overstated' Elizabeth Banks

The Death of Us

"A woman must learn to take responsibility for her own dreams in this heartfelt novel inspired by Anne of Green Gables by New York Times bestselling author Virginia Kantra. Anne Gallagher believes in love-the kind of love that exists in fairy tales and romance novels and-most of all-in her favorite book of all time, Anne of Green Gables. Growing up on isolated Mackinac Island, Michigan, she imagined herself as Anne Shirley. There's the name, right? And her hair is red-well, reddish. And while Mackinac is no Prince Edward Island, it does have a tiny island school and horse-drawn carriages on a main street lined with Victorian houses. She dreams of becoming a teacher and a writer, just like her fictional role model. Everything is falling into place for Anne, who is getting ready to graduate from Northwestern University and has already lined up a job at a pricey private school north of Chicago. She's also dating her very own Gilbert Blythe-a selfless medical resident named Chris, whose rich family used to vacation on Mackinac in the summers. But then Anne's beloved father dies from a heart attack while working on a roof, and a dispute with her new principal leads to a leave of absence. Now she must return home to Mackinac, which means confronting all the strained relationships she left behind. With nothing but time back on the island known for its beauty and charm, Anne has a chance to reconsider her decisions and decide for herself what she wants out of life.."-- Provided by publisher.
