Darius Kellner speaks better Klingon than Farsi, and he knows more about Hobbit social cues than Persian ones. He’s a Fractional Persian—half, his mom’s side—and his first-ever trip to Iran is about to change his life.
Darius has never really fit in at home, and he’s sure things are going to be the same in Iran. His clinical depression doesn’t exactly help matters, and trying to explain his medication to his grandparents only makes things harder. Then Darius meets Sohrab, the boy next door, and everything changes. Soon, they’re spending their days together, playing soccer, eating faludeh, and talking for hours on a secret rooftop overlooking the city’s skyline. Sohrab calls him Darioush—the original Persian version of his name—and Darius has never felt more like himself than he does now that he’s Darioush to Sohrab.

Drawing on her own experiences with late-onset disability and its impact on her sex life, along with her expertise as a cultural critic, Jane Gallop explores how disability and aging work to undermine one's sense of self. She challenges common conceptions that equate the decline of bodily potential and ability with a permanent and irretrievable loss, arguing that such a loss can be both temporary and positively transformative. With Sexuality, Disability, and Aging, Gallop explores and celebrates how sexuality transforms and becomes more queer in the lives of the no longer young and the no longer able while at the same time demonstrating how disability can generate new forms of sexual fantasy and erotic possibility.

What makes a life, Sam Waxworth sometimes wondered―self or circumstance?
On the day Sam Waxworth arrives in New York to write for the Interviewer, a street-corner preacher declares that the world is coming to an end. A data journalist and recent media celebrity―he correctly forecast every outcome of the 2008 election―Sam knows a few things about predicting the future. But when projection meets reality, life gets complicated.
His first assignment for the Interviewer is a profile of disgraced political columnist Frank Doyle, known to Sam for the sentimental works of baseball lore that first sparked his love of the game. When Sam meets Frank at Citi Field for the Mets’ home opener, he finds himself unexpectedly ushered into Doyle’s crumbling family empire. Kit, the matriarch, lost her investment bank to the financial crisis; Eddie, their son, hasn’t been the same since his second combat tour in Iraq; Eddie’s best friend from childhood, the fantastically successful hedge funder Justin Price, is starting to see cracks in his spotless public image. And then there’s Frank’s daughter, Margo, with whom Sam becomes involved―just as his wife, Lucy, arrives from Wisconsin. While their lives seem inextricable, none of them know how close they are to losing everything, including each other.
Sweeping in scope yet meticulous in its construction, The Index of Self-Destructive Acts is a remarkable family portrait and a masterful evocation of New York City and its institutions. Over the course of a single baseball season, Christopher Beha traces the passing of the torch from the old establishment to the new meritocracy, exploring how each generation’s failure helped land us where we are today. Whether or not the world is ending, Beha’s characters are all headed to apocalypses of their own making.

1947年，卢卡写道：“《爱情发明家》是一个用爱情来实现彻底解放的理论与实践计划的纲领……在这里，爱情第一次自由地遭遇了革命……爱情在1945年被发明……二律背反的世界在非俄狄浦斯的层面上荡然无存……自由与其对立面之间的神话斗争如今发生在俄狄浦斯和非俄狄浦斯之间。必须迈出一大步，克服形形色色的体系残酷但又精确地描述的无法忍受的俄狄浦斯生命，迈向语言系统难以描述、难以还原、难以察觉的一种生命中的生命、爱情中的爱情。我说的是非俄狄浦斯的生命与死亡，也就是对长久以来令我们纠结又不幸的那条退化的乡愁脐带的绝对否定。”

A direct and fundamentally optimistic indictment of the short-sightedness and intellectual arrogance that has characterized much of urban planning in this century, The Death and Life of Great American Cities has, since its first publication in 1961, become the standard against which all endeavors in that field are measured. In prose of outstanding immediacy, Jane Jacobs writes about what makes streets safe or unsafe; about what constitutes a neighborhood, and what function it serves within the larger organism of the city; about why some neighborhoods remain impoverished while others regenerate themselves. She writes about the salutary role of funeral parlors and tenement windows, the dangers of too much development money and too little diversity. Compassionate, bracingly indignant, and always keenly detailed, Jane Jacobs's monumental work provides an essential framework for assessing the vitality of all cities.

专业学者的严谨八卦，
深入研究中国古代皇帝、后妃的亲密生活
◎ 编辑推荐
☆皇帝被称为『天子』，那么宫廷里的后妃大概就是『天女』了。宫廷生活一直是公众的兴趣点，但充斥着大量的戏说和野史。作者以丰富的史料和扎实的研究，从正史的角度，讲述了宋朝至清朝历代后妃、宫女的典型经历与事迹。
☆皇帝不仅是我们熟悉的帝国统治者，也是儿子、丈夫 、父亲；后 妃不仅依附于皇帝生活，也在某些特殊时刻掌握了滔天的权势，决定王朝的前途命运。比如北宋时坚决反对王安石变法的曹太后、高太后；明成化帝的万贵妃，年长皇帝17岁却长久盛宠不衰；明嘉靖帝时的壬寅宫变，杨金英等宫女难以忍受皇帝的多疑暴戾，趁其熟睡之际险些将之勒死；明天启帝的乳母客氏利用皇帝的信任，与大宦官、对食丈夫魏忠贤一起横行后宫，使天启帝无子而终；清康熙帝有54位嫔妃，生育了56名子女，后宫一片和谐，宫斗失去土壤；清乾隆帝没有宠妃，却独爱和珅；慈禧作为帝制中国*后的女性实权者，关于她的传说，到底是真是假？
☆除了史籍文献，作者的研究还关注了《金枝欲孽》《甄嬛传》等热门宫廷剧，用严谨而不失轻松的笔触，探讨了宫廷后妃的生活和她们面临的各种困难与挑战，使读者可以透彻了解古代后妃的真实生活情况。

If The Iliad is the world's greatest war epic, then The Odyssey is literature's grandest evocation of everyman's journey though life. Odysseus's reliance on his wit and wiliness for survival in his encounters with divine and natural forces during his ten-year voyage home to Ithaca after the Trojan War is at once a timeless human story and an individual test of moral endurance.

Introduction and Notes by Bernard Knox 请读者注意，你将要购买的这本书属于“Rough Cut”即传统的毛边剪裁。
A:有些精装书的切口为何很毛糙？
Q:毛边书在国外出版界通常用于重要的精品图书，为了使特定图书看起来更特别更有品味。在过去毛边书的生产流程会更为复杂和昂贵。而且毛糙的切口对于藏书者来 说可是贴心举措！当你阅读后，可以将该书拿去给印刷厂在毛糙切口处重切一刀，黑色的手指印和因为阅读而形成的卷曲立即消失，一本崭新的适于收藏的图书出现 了！ 国内读者可千万别误会这属于品质差的图书，所有亚马逊中国提供的原版书都是由国家规定的图书进出口公司进口的国外出版社正规制作的原版图书产品，与国外销 售的产品完全一样。

The first great adventure story in the Western canon,
is a poem about violence and the aftermath of war; about wealth, poverty, and power; about marriage and family; about travelers, hospitality, and the yearning for home.
In this fresh, authoritative version--the first English translation of
by a woman--this stirring tale of shipwrecks, monsters, and magic comes alive in an entirely new way. Written in iambic pentameter verse and a vivid, contemporary idiom, this engrossing translation matches the number of lines in the Greek original, thus striding at Homer's sprightly pace and singing with a voice that echoes Homer's music.
Wilson's
captures the beauty and enchantment of this ancient poem as well as the suspense and drama of its narrative. Its characters are unforgettable, from the cunning goddess Athena, whose interventions guide and protect the hero, to the awkward teenage son, Telemachus, who struggles to achieve adulthood and find his father; from the cautious, clever, and miserable Penelope, who somehow keeps clamoring suitors at bay during her husband's long absence, to the "complicated" hero himself, a man of many disguises, many tricks, and many moods, who emerges in this translation as a more fully rounded human being than ever before.
A fascinating introduction provides an informative overview of the Bronze Age milieu that produced the epic, the major themes of the poem, the controversies about its origins, and the unparalleled scope of its impact and influence. Maps drawn especially for this volume, a pronunciation glossary, and extensive notes and summaries of each book make this an
that will be treasured by a new generation of scholars, students, and general readers alike.

★深受吉尔·德勒兹、菲利克斯·加塔利、贝尔纳·斯蒂格勒、布鲁诺·拉图尔推崇的哲学家——吉尔伯特·西蒙东首部正式出版的中译本。
★在其哲学名著《个体及其物理—生物起源》中，西蒙东自问：“心理与生命是如何彼此相互区分的呢？”为求其解，他感到有必要首先回顾动物与人的生命观念。在本书中，西蒙东就生命、动物与人的生命之间的统一性，还有生命与智性、习惯、本能之间的关系提出了问题，为我们呈现了古往今来的思想家如何对此展开思考。
★动物与人的关系是什么？苏格拉底会说：人类理性与动物本能之间存在本质差别。柏拉图会说：人是一切动物的原型，动物是低等级的人。笛卡尔会说：动物既无智性亦无本能，它是一台机器、一种自动之物。西蒙东则会回答：动物与人之间并没有本质区别，一切都是存在，我们每一次都必须以特定的方式思考存在的意义。
- 内容简介 -
本书脱胎于吉尔伯特·西蒙东两次课程的讲稿，主要探讨动物与人的关系问题。这虽然算不上哲学的根本问题，却一再闪现于古往今来诸多哲学巨擘的思想图景之中。在书中，西蒙东为我们梳理了该问题从古希腊罗马时期一直到17世纪的简明历史。他不仅论及了苏格拉底、柏拉图、亚里士多德和笛卡尔等哲学史上最重要人物的相关思想，还谈到了许多不常被哲学家们触探的作者，如亚西西的圣方济各、蒙田、博须埃和拉封丹等人的相关著述。西蒙东没有执着于将诸学说的论述推至艰深晦涩的抽象层面，而是从观念的历史维度切入，清晰地为我们呈现了不同流派的学说对该问题的提出与解决而做的贡献。从中，我们可以看到，动物与人的关系问题不仅牵涉认识论的维度，还广泛地包括了伦理，甚至宗教，以及最终的形而上学的维度。

A James Beard Award-winning writer captures life under the Red socialist banner in this wildly inventive, tragicomic memoir of feasts, famines, and three generations

With startling beauty and sardonic wit, Anya von Bremzen tells an intimate yet epic story of life in that vanished empire known as the USSR—a place where every edible morsel was packed with emotional and political meaning.
Born in 1963, in an era of bread shortages, Anya grew up in a communal Moscow apartment where eighteen families shared one kitchen. She sangodesto Lenin, black-marketeeredJuicy Fruit gumat school, watched her father brew moonshine, and,like most Soviet citizens, longed fora taste of the mythical West. It was a life by turns absurd, drab, naively joyous, melancholy—and ultimately intolerable to her anti-Soviet mother, Larisa. When Anya was ten, she and Larisa fled the political repression of Brezhnev-era Russia, arriving in Philadelphia with no winter coats and no right of return.
Now Anya occupies two parallel food universes: one where she writes about four-star restaurants, the other where a taste of humble kolbasa transports her back to her scarlet-blazed socialist past. To bring that past to life, in its full flavor, both bitter and sweet, Anya and Larisa, embark on a journey unlike any other: they decide to eat and cook their way through every decade of the Soviet experience—turning Larisa’s kitchen into a "time machine and an incubator of memories.” Together, mother and daughter re-create meals both modest and sumptuous, featuring a decadent fish pie from the pages of Chekhov, chanakhi (Stalin’s favorite Georgian stew), blini, and more.
Through these meals, Anya tells the gripping story of three Soviet generations—
masterfully capturing the strange mix of idealism, cynicism, longing, and terror that defined Soviet life. We meet her grandfather Naum, a glamorous intelligence chief under Stalin, and her grandmother Liza, who made a perilous odyssey to icy, blockaded Leningrad to find Naum during World War II.We meet Anya’s hard-drinking, sarcastic father, Sergei, who cruelly abandons his family shortly after Anya is born; and we are captivated by Larisa, the romantic dreamer who grew up dreading the black public loudspeakers trumpeting the glories of the Five-Year Plan. Their stories unfold against the vast panorama of Soviet history: Lenin’s bloody grain requisitioning, World War II hunger and survival, Stalin’s table manners, Khrushchev’s kitchen debates, Gorbachev’s disastrous anti-alcohol policies. And, ultimately, the collapse of the USSR.And all of it is bound together by Anya’s passionate nostalgia, sly humor, and piercing observations.
Mastering the Art of Soviet Cooking is that rare book that stirs our souls and our senses.

Currently, 3.7 million Americans call themselves preppers. Millions more prep without knowing it. Bradley Garrett, who began writing this book years before the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic, argues that prepping is a rational response to global, social, and political systems that are failing to produce credible narratives of continued stability. Left with a sense of foreboding fueled by disease outbreaks, increasing government dysfunctionality, eroding critical infrastructure, nuclear brinksmanship, and an accelerating climate crisis, people all over the world are responding predictably—by hunkering down.
For this book, Garrett traveled across four continents to meet those who are constructing panic rooms, building underground backyard survival chambers, stockpiling supplies, preparing go bags, hiding inflatable rafts, rigging mobile “bugout” vehicles, and burrowing deep into the earth. He has returned with a brilliant, original and never less than deeply disturbing story from the frontlines of the way we live now: an illuminating reflection on our age of disquiet and dread that brings our times into new and sharper focus.
The “bunker,” Garrett shows, is all around us: in malls, airports, gated communities, the vehicles we drive. Most of all, he reveals, it’s in our minds.

公爵的女兒伊蓮娜從蜜瑞安手中買得冰雪之銀打造的戒指、項鍊、王冠，雖然心不甘情不願，卻還是依照父親之命嫁給沙皇米納提爾斯，沙皇外貌俊美，性情卻殘酷乖戾，伊蓮娜卻漸漸發現他從小就必須與體內的火惡魔搏鬥，為了不被控制而身心俱疲，而沙皇的祕密，似乎也跟冰雪王國脫不了關係。
