Hustvedt S: Ghost Stories

Ghost Stories

The Biography

Gwyneth

Before&nbsp;she was born, Annie Ernaux's parents had another daughter who died at the age of six from diphtheria. Translated into English for the first time,&nbsp;The Other Girl&nbsp;explores the meaning of this family secret, which Annie only discovered by chance as a child and never discussed with her parents again.

The Other Girl

'Masterpiece' Evening Standard 'Fascinating' The Economist Best Titles of 2024In this vivid coming-of-age memoir, Rob Henderson recounts growing up in foster care, enlisting in the US Air Force, attending elite universities - and what he learnt from seeing life from both sides of the tracks. Rob Henderson was born to a drug-addicted mother and a father he never met, ultimately shuttling between ten different foster homes in California. When he was adopted into a loving family, he hoped that life would finally be stable and safe. He was wrong: tragedy, poverty and violence marked his adolescent years. An unflinching portrait of shattered families, desperation, and determination, Troubled recounts how Henderson eventually managed to find an escape route through the military, which led to an academic career at Yale and Cambridge. As he reflects on the fate of many of his friends - drugs, death, prison - Henderson never escapes the feeling of being on the outside looking in, or a sense that his academic achievements are hollow compared to the love and protection that comes from stable family life. He dissects the hypocrisies of contemporary social class and shows how the most privileged among us benefit from a set of 'luxury beliefs' that actively harm the most vulnerable.

A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class

Troubled

Un fascinante paseo por La Habana con un guía de lujo, el propio Leonardo Padura.
Los buenos novelistas siempre cuentan en sus historias con un personaje que acaba siendo tan importante como el protagonista: la ciudad donde trascurren los hechos. Por eso no hay mejor guía para conocer La Habana que Leonardo Padura, el autor que mejor le ha tomado el pulso, a lo largo de diferentes épocas, en cada una de sus novelas. Este libro ofrece un paseo por los barrios de La Habana en forma de historia autobiográfica del propio novelista, que va desde Mantilla hasta los diferentes barrios de la ciudad. Y en cada uno de ellos, su historia se complementa con los fragmentos de las novelas donde aparecen. A la vez, en una segunda parte, se reúnen varios reportajes sobre los aspectos más sorprendentes y desconocido de su historia. No es difícil ver en muchos de ellos el embrión de los casos de Mario Conde, o el pasado evocado en tantas novelas de Padura, que nos hace vivir la ciudad, y viajar en el tiempo.

Ir a La Habana

A memoir of Dublin in the 1980s and 1990s, and an intimate defence of radical thinking about literature and life, by Brian Dillon, 'one of the true treasures of contemporary literature' (Mark O'Connell).

Ambivalence

Dysphoria Mundi

A searing memoir of love and grief centered around the loss of Siri Hustvedt’s husband, Paul Auster. "Genuinely moving...Hustvedt’s book is like Didion’s [The Year of Magical Thinking] in tone...a grainy and resonant book about loneliness, despair, and confusion. It’s close to a howl." —The New York Times Book Review Ghost Stories is an intimate meditation on grief, memory, and enduring love, written after the death of Siri Hustvedt’s husband, Paul Auster. The book includes personal, never-before-seen writing by Auster—letters and notes to Siri and his last unfinished book addressed to his grandson, Letters to Miles. The memoir is both an elegy and a reckoning, a chronicle of personal loss that also bears witness to the sorrows of recent years—the tragic deaths of Hustvedt’s stepson and granddaughter. Hustvedt explores how grief unmoors time, how the intimacy of a shared life continues to mark the everyday, and how the body experiences the absence of love as a presence. She reflects on the things and papers Auster left behind, the forty-three years they spent together, the rituals of mourning, and the nature of language, memory, and the self. Part memoir, part philosophical inquiry, Ghost Stories is unflinching, tender, and wise. It is a story of a woman haunting her own life, and the ghosts that inhabit us even as we carry on.

A Memoir

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Inspirational, entertaining, and rigorously honest.” —Robert Downey Jr. Academy Award–winning actor Sir Anthony Hopkins delves into his illustrious film and theater career, difficult childhood, and path to sobriety in his “unflinchingly honest” (USA TODAY), moving, and long-awaited memoir. Born and raised in Port Talbot—a small Welsh steelworks town—amid war and depression, Sir Anthony Hopkins grew up around men who were tough, to say the least, and eschewed all forms of emotional vulnerability in favor of alcoholism and brutality. A struggling student in school, he was deemed by his peers, his parents, and other adults as a failure with no future ahead of him. But, on a fateful Saturday night, the disregarded Welsh boy watched the 1948 adaptation of Hamlet, sparking a passion for acting that would lead him on a path that no one could have predicted. With candor and a voice that is both arresting and vulnerable, Sir Anthony recounts his various career milestones and provides a once-in-a-lifetime look into the brilliance behind some of his most iconic roles. His performance as Iago gets him admitted into the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and places him under the wing of acclaimed Shakespearean thespian Laurence Olivier. He meets Richard Burton by chance as a young boy in his art teacher’s apartment, and later, backstage before a performance of Equus as an established actor meeting his hero. His iconic portrayal of Hannibal Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs was informed by the creepy performance of Bela Lugosi in Dracula and the razor-sharp precision of his acting teacher. He pulls raw emotion from the stoicism of his father and grandfather for an unforgettable performance in King Lear. Sir Anthony also takes a deeply honest look at the low points in his personal life. His addiction cost him his first marriage, his relationship with his only child, and nearly his life—the latter ultimately propelling him toward sobriety, a commitment he has maintained for nearly half a century. He constantly battles against the desire to move through life alone and avoid connection for fear of getting hurt—much like the men in his family—and as the years go by, he deals with questions of mortality, getting ready to discover what his father called The Big Secret. Featuring a special collection of personal photographs throughout, We Did OK, Kid is a “sensational” (The Wall Street Journal), raw, and passionate memoir from a complex, iconic man who has inspired audiences with remarkable performances for over sixty years.

We Did OK, Kid

Über sieben Brücken

Helmut Richter

Siete relatos sobre el sometimiento social, familiar o económico de la vida cotidiana, escritos por Carmen Martín Gaite, una de las figuras más importantes de las letras hispánicas del siglo XX. «Las verdaderas ataduras son las que uno escoge, las que se busca y se pone uno solo, pudiendo no tenerlas'. Además de la narración principal, que da título a la obra, el libro homónimo de Carmen Martín Gaite incluye otros seis relatos que exploran los conflictos de identidad, así como las complejidades de las relaciones humanas; especialmente desde la perspectiva de las mujeres en la España de mediados del siglo XX. Estos cuentos ofrecen una visiónprofunda y psicológica de los vínculos emocionales y sociales, vistos a través de la capacidad narrativa de la autora para "bucear en el interior de sus personajes femeninos" para explorar temas como la libertad, la identidad y la incomunicación. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Seven stories about social, family, and financial submission in everyday life, written by Carmen Martín Gaite, one of the most important figures in Spanish literature in the twentieth century. "The real ties are the ones you choose, the ones you seek, and the ones you put on yourself, which you could have not." Besides the primary story that gives this work its name, Carmen Martín Gaite's book of the same name includes six other tales that explore conflicts of identity, as well as complexities in human relations, specially from a female perspective in mid-twentieth-century Spain. These short stories offer a deep and psychological perspective of emotional and social ties, seen through the author's narrative mastery to "dive into her female characters" and explore topics like freedom, identity, and isolation.

Las ataduras

*AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER* Actor-dancer Alyson Stoner's revelatory and incisive memoir-from family violence and betrayal, to eating disorders and religious trauma-may begin in Hollywood, but its chilling relatability will resonate with anyone navigating identity, privacy, purpose, and mental health in a digital age. Raised on soundstages and studio lots from the age of six, shuffling between auditions for Disney Channel, Cheaper by the Dozen, or Missy Elliott music videos, Alyson Stoner experienced many of the defining moments of childhood inside the bizarre fishbowl of Hollywood. From working eighty hours a week at eight years old, to learning how to distinguish fan mail from kidnapping plots, to TV execs saying they weren't "anorexic enough" to stop working and get help, Alyson struggled to find stability and sanity in a chaotic world. In Semi-Well-Adjusted Despite Literally Everything, Alyson shares their powerful story for the first time, detailing a turbulent home life fractured by substance abuse, harrowing accounts from rehab, the messy process of discovering their sexuality in church, rebuilding a life after an early professional peak, and charting a path of self-discovery and advocacy. With striking introspection, Alyson connects the dots across the entertainment industry ecosystem, child development, and media culture, exposing the "toddler to trainwreck pipeline" of child stars and sparking timely conversations about success and society's enchantment with fame. Bold, entertaining, warm, and galvanizing all at once, Semi-Well-Adjusted Despite Literally Everything is more than a personal memoir: it's a beacon for industry reform, a road map for breaking the bonds of generational trauma, and a testament to the freedom and strength that come from finally trusting your own voice and power.
