What happens when people grow up believing that privilege is natural, wealth is virtue, and the rules are for everyone else? Discover the must-read insider's account of the 1%, the shocking true story of life as a nanny to the super-rich.'I could not put it down. The most compelling read of the year' PHILIPPA PERRY 'A compulsive read. Enraging, horrifying and utterly gripping' SABINE DURRANT 'A glimpse into the terminally messed up lives of the billionaire class and their offspring ...

She was expected to look away from everything else. But everyone has their limits to what they can witness and remain silent. She found hers the hard way.Part memoir, part exposé, The Unnamed Nanny is an anonymous account of raising the children of the ultra-rich - and what really happens behind the closed doors of the 1%.The families remain anonymous.So must she.

Halo

"2552. The theocratic military alliance known as the Covenant is showing no mercy as it continues to assault every human world it encounters, but in the way lies humanity's greatest champion, the super-soldier Spartan John-117--the Master Chief. Together with his AI companion Cortana and the last remaining Spartans, the galaxy-spanning fight rages on two fronts following the destruction of the human military stronghold Reach by Covenant forces and the mysterious artificial ringworld known as 'Halo' at the hands of the Master Chief"--Back cover.

Halo: First Strike: Volume 3

"A magnificent debut" (Laila Lalami) that explores loneliness and community, religion and repression, and the pleasure and pain of womanhood. Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2026 by Debutiful, Lit Hub, Chicago Review of Books, and Autostraddle By turns tender and irreverent, the 11 genre-bending stories in Please Don't Touch the Body are thrillingly concerned with the devastation-and power-of being alive today. In the collection's first story, a Japanese woman finds healing in a secret life as a sex advice columnist after being fetishized by her white husband for decades. In the fourth story, Ronald Reagan is reincarnated as a puppy and must cope with being squeezed, dropped, and controlled by his young, queer owner. And in "Thank You No Thank You," a young woman grapples with the rules she learned in her religious childhood, the freedoms of her new and more liberal life, and her actual desires as she vacations with her long-term boyfriend. Together these inventive, emotionally rich stories reveal an incredible new vision and "a writer to watch" (Rita Chang-Eppig).

Please Don't Touch the Body

A workbook designed to guide the bereaved through grief using a clinically-informed, structured storytelling method, this book gives readers the ability to disclose their suffering and work toward healing and reconcile with their loss using narrative writing. Based upon her research and the 'expressive storytelling' method she created, Linita Eapen Mathew calls upon her own experiences losing her father along with carefully structured narrative exercises to teach readers how they can write, re-examine, revise, and re-write their grief story to work towards a point of clarity and release. Leaning into grief theory and trauma-informed and therapeutic writing research, Writing Through Grief allows readers to create a complete and consistent account of their experiences to help them process events that unfolded, release trauma, and relieve the intense reactions and responses to the loss of both the living and the deceased. With each chapter combining Eapen's personal narrative with expressive storytelling exercises alongside discussion of the research behind them for context, this book offers readers a creative, productive but emotionally sensitive approach to handling grief. Whether guided by a trained psychologist, a workshop instructor or writing in the comfort of a personal space, writers can disclose their suffering and work toward healing and reflection through creative writing.

An Expressive Storytelling Workbook

Narrating Your Grief

Seit Jahrtausenden leben Vampire verborgen unter den Menschen. Sie haben einen Pakt geschlossen, den die acht großen Vampirfamilien mit ihrem Blut unterschrieben und der alle einhundert Jahre erneuert wird. Ludwig soll im Auftrag seines Schöpfers an der Zeremonie teilnehmen. Dafür zieht er in eine unscheinbare Wohnung in einer Kleinstadt in England. Er ahnt nicht, dass ihm gegenüber ein Vampirjäger wohnt - und ebenso wenig, dass die anderen Vampirfamilien ganz und gar nicht gewillt sind, den Pakt erneut zu unterzeichnen.

The Vampire Next Door | Farbschnitt in der 1. Auflage

Part life philosophy, part financial clarity, and part real-world wisdom from a hugely popular estate planning attorney who has seen what happens when families plan and when they don't. I'm Sorry I'm Dead helps readers confront the reality of life's end, not in a morbid way, but in a deeply empowering one. Estate planning attorney, entrepreneur, and best-selling author Pamela Maass Garrett aka Law Mother has helped thousands of families navigate what happens when someone dies. She has seen firsthand that the biggest problems families face are rarely legal: they are emotional, relational, and the result of decisions never made . . . siblings that stop speaking over a dispute about their parent's home, a grieving widow locked out of bank accounts because she didn't know how to get access, and families forced to guess about critical medical decisions. All of these problems can be easily avoided. In this book, Garrett introduces a powerful mindset shift: when you face the end of life honestly, you begin living more intentionally today. Through compelling stories from real families, practical financial insights, and simple decision-making frameworks, readers learn how to take control of their lives before circumstances take control of them. The book guides readers through the most important life decisions most people avoid: · how to organize finances and build real wealth · how to protect loved ones legally and emotionally · how to make difficult family decisions before crisis strikes · how to prevent conflict, confusion, and regret after death · how to create a legacy that strengthens future generations rather than unintentionally burdening them with a huge tax bill · what you really can and can't do Rather than overwhelming readers with technical legal details, I'm Sorry I'm Dead offers a clear philosophy and practical tools for making the decisions that matter most. The result is a life lived with greater clarity, stronger relationships, and the peace of knowing the people you love will be protected. This book is for anyone who wants to stop drifting through life and start deciding it.

This Is Worth Remembering

A cradle to grave approach in pursuing claims under Part III MFPA 1984, including advice on how to commence, proceed and conclude claims, as well as presenting the legal framework and practical structure. These claims have a propensity to be sprawling and in light of more recent decisions, most notably in Potanin v Potanina [2024] UKSC 3 and TY v XA [2024] EWFC 96, prone to consistent change. This single comprehensive text addresses all the elements of such a claim.Not only do the authors summarise the legal framework, but they also assist practitioners with all the various pitfalls and dangers which can arise, such as the approach to permission hearings and dealing with foreign assets. Unlike any other text, this practical manual assists practitioners with answering the key questions:- What is the legal framework for claims under Part III MFPA 1984? - How do I prepare and litigate these types of claims? - What do I need to be careful about when making these claims?This indispensable guide sets out the key basics for those unfamiliar with these claims, as well as assisting experienced practitioners with more difficult or complex points. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Family Law online service.

Fünf Leben, in denen sich die jüngste europäische Geschichte widerspiegelt

Bosnien Anfang der 90er. Fünf Personen treten vor die Bühne: Zwei Bosniaken, zwei Serben und eine Kroatin. Eindrucksvoll erzählen sie von der Tragik, dem Zauber und den Sehnsüchten in ihrer Heimat. Dabei kreisen ihre Gedanken stets um Familien, um Liebe und ums Überleben. 
"Senada oder Der Tag trägt die Last" vereint diese fünf bewegenden Novellen, die von vielschichtigen Lebensschicksalen aus dem ehemaligen Jugoslawien erzählen. Mit eindringlicher Kraft und sprachlicher Präzision gelingt es Karsten Dümmel, individuelle Erfahrungen von Krieg, Flucht, Verlust und Identität zusammenzuführen und dem Unsagbaren eine Stimme zu geben. Zwischen Zerbrechlichkeit und Widerstandskraft ensteht so ein Raum für Erinnerung und Mitgefühl. Ein Buch, das Brücken schlagen kann und dem Vergessen mutig entgegentritt.

Law and Philosophy Library

In this book, John Finnis provides a virtually unparalleled, in-depth assessment of Leon Peträycki’s work by a Western scholar. In the opening chapter, Finnis takes up the challenge of reading Peträycki not simply as a historical curiosity of Eastern European jurisprudence but as a thinker whose wide-ranging and ambitious ideas continue to spark debate today. He critiques not only Peträycki’s non-standard “economic analysis of law,” which differs markedly from the Chicago School model (not to mention from Guido Calabresi’s and Pietro Trimarchi’s versions), but also many other aspects of Peträycki’s various contributions to jurisprudence. These include, above all, his legal-realistic but nonetheless appreciative treatment of the natural-law tradition(s), which makes Peträycki both distinctive and difficult to classify in terms of standard schools of thought.
Finnis’ essay is followed by nine further contributions. Written by scholars from different traditions and standpoints, they criticize, reassess, and elaborate upon Finnis’ arguments, creating a rich and multi-voiced dialogue. The volume concludes with Finnis’ own, extensive “concluding reflections,” in which he directly responds to his fellow contributors, clarifying his original questions and replying to the challenges raised in their chapters.
This unique volume showcases Finnis’ insights, while enabling his interlocutors to highlight the depth and complexity of both Finnis’ and Peträycki’s thought, as well as broader issues – more relevant now than ever – such as the differences between Catholic natural law, Orthodox natural law, and Peträycki’s atheistic, humanistic, anti-speciesist ideal of substituting love for law and morality alike.
