It is a hunting tale of a strange romance between a worldly and dissolute man, James Noel Holland, Earl of Tyne, and the golden-haired young Edward, his ward-or perhaps his son. Homosexuality, sadomasochism, and incest are elements in their relationship-and so are affection, love, and the saving quality of grace. The time of the story is the beginning of the nineteenth century-the pre-Regency years of domestic unrest, of the Napoleonic Wars, and of lawlessness, cruelty, and the vast chasm between the rulers and the ruled.

本书由八部中篇和短篇小说构成。水与火，柔软与尖锐，春天与冬天，植物与铁器，韩江在这些冲突中洞悉瞬间的感觉和印象，用美妙而生动的语言刻画命运的表情，在刺探人与人之间关系的阴暗面时，闪烁着耀眼的光芒。短篇集关注“底层”人群，每个主人公都像在“没有希望的世界里像孤儿一样”流浪。他们从偏僻小镇的旅馆房间、考试院走廊尽头的房间、黑暗的地下室或多户型住宅和高层公寓的走廊尽头走出来，经过黑暗的楼梯和没有路灯的胡同，走进纷繁的令人疲倦的城市大街之中。然而即使他们离开许许多多疲惫的人们和不幸的都市，来到偏僻的海边或边缘港口城市生活，最终还是要回归都市，这就是他们的宿命。他们处在都市喧闹、污染和复杂的人际关系中，却没有能够包容和安抚他们的乐园或是母亲。乐园和母亲只存在于梦中或是死亡的那一边。他们所在的世界是父亲的世界，是邪恶和冰冷的世界。那里是现实的世界，充满了蛇、数字13和4，还有冰冰冷冷的铁制品。而韩江小说中的人物将要在那里重生。

通过对中国深圳、东莞和广州266名农民工的深度访谈，本书描述了中国的城乡迁移对家庭和性别关系的改变。而这一探讨，是通过聚焦于男性和男性气质的改变来完成的。
作者在书中展示了这场始于三十多年前的大规模城乡迁移是如何重塑男性农民工作为爱人、丈夫、父亲和儿子的角色的。在这场为了生计的“搏斗”中，男性农民工做出了“男性气质的妥协”：他们通过在夫妻权力和家务分工中做出让步、重新定义孝顺和父职等方式，努力维护着家庭中的性别界线和他们在家庭中的象征性的支配地位。
这些男性农民工及其家庭的故事，也揭示了中国经济改革、现代化和社会转型的另一个侧面。
本书荣获国际社会学协会移民研究2018年度最佳图书奖 (International Sociological Association RC31 Sociology of Migration 2018 Best Book Award)

○ 在民主与平等观念日益深入人心的今天，保藏昔日艺术的博物馆体制正遭受猛烈抨击
为什么有些被博物馆赋予特权的东西被我们称为艺术品，得到我们社会的精心保护和修缮；但另一些东西则被交付给时间的摧枯拉朽之力，没有人在意它们最终的瓦解和消失？
● 艺术抵挡时间的流动 VS 艺术进入时间的流动
过去，人们通过艺术去搁置行动生活的流动，抽出时间去沉思图像。然而，如果我们今天将艺术品推入时间的洪流，使其命运与其他寻常事物没有任何区别，我们还能够谈论艺术吗？
○ 艺术的流变学：顶级艺术理论家对互联网时代的艺术的真知灼见
在我们的时代，博物馆已不再是一个永久收藏之地，互联网成为艺术作品（实践）生产和传播的主要场所，更多人将艺术作为流动的事物来讨论。今天，互联网上处于流动中的艺术比以往任何时候都能得到更好的记录和保存。
-内容简介-
20世纪早期，艺术及艺术体制在民主与平等的新精神之下受到批评。艺术作品是神圣之物，这一观点遭到公然反对，随后艺术作品被理解为只不过是物品。这是对现实主义的一种攻击，也是对博物馆传统的保护性使命的攻击。备受赞誉的艺术理论家鲍里斯•格罗伊斯认为，这种情况导致了“直接现实主义”的发展：这种艺术不生产物品，而生产不会留存下来的实践（从行为艺术到关系美学）。但一个多世纪过去了，这个方向上的每一次进步都迅速带来了保存艺术独特性的新方法。
在这部重要的著作中，格罗伊斯描绘了这种张力产生的悖论，探索了无物品媒介（互联网）时代的艺术。格罗伊斯断言，如果说机械复制给了我们没有灵晕的物品，那么数字复制生成的便是没有物品的灵晕，其所有物质性都转化成当下之短暂易逝的标志。
-专家推荐-
《流动不居》不仅切实记述了鲍里斯•格罗伊斯在写作这本书时敏锐的思考状态，还预示了读者将围绕着我们时代最普遍的一些文化结构——博物馆、档案馆、互联网——展开不可思议的旅程。在阐述艺术的流变学（或流动性）的过程中，本书的每一章都阐明了一些当代术语与概念（比如，“行动主义”、“参与”、“审美化”、“感染”、“越界”）的新潜力。《流动不居》提出了令人耳目一新的艺术理论方法，为观念在付诸实践时保持可变开辟了可能性。
凯特•富勒（Kate Fowle），莫斯科车库艺术博物馆前首席策展人、纽约MoMA SP1前馆长
大多数关于当代艺术与当代生活之间的交集的文章，往往都会立刻屈服于时髦的现在主义（presentism）的诱惑，或是缓慢却不可避免地屈服于失落的现代主义的感伤。格罗伊斯的这些文章并非如此。《流动不居》追踪了一个多世纪以来艺术与哲学、政治、大众媒介、生活方式、博物馆和近年来的互联网之间的复杂对话。书中谈到的有些流动是我们熟悉的，但大多数是我们不熟悉的：从俄国1917年前后的先锋派艺术到其后1924—1953年时期的总体艺术作品，从克莱门特•格林伯格到谷歌，从马丁•海德格尔到朱利安•阿桑奇。格罗伊斯以异于常人的挑衅、令人叹为观止的联想跳跃和富有成效的悖论等标志性倾向写就的这些文章，阅读起来是一种挑战，也是一种乐趣。
特里•史密斯（Terry Smith），《什么是当代艺术？》（What Is Contemporary Art?）的作者

From the New Yorker staff writer Hua Hsu, a gripping memoir on friendship, grief, the search for self, and the solace that can be found through art.
In the eyes of 18-year-old Hua Hsu, the problem with Ken—with his passion for Dave Matthews, Abercrombie & Fitch, and his fraternity—is that he is exactly like everyone else. Ken, whose Japanese American family has been in the United States for generations, is mainstream; for Hua, the son of Taiwanese immigrants, who makes ’zines and haunts Bay Area record shops, Ken represents all that he defines himself in opposition to. The only thing Hua and Ken have in common is that, however they engage with it, American culture doesn’t seem to have a place for either of them.
But despite his first impressions, Hua and Ken become friends, a friendship built of late-night conversations over cigarettes, long drives along the California coast, and the textbook successes and humiliations of everyday college life. And then violently, senselessly, Ken is gone, killed in a carjacking, not even three years after the day they first meet.
Determined to hold on to all that was left of one of his closest friends—his memories—Hua turned to writing. Stay True is the book he’s been working on ever since. A coming-of-age story that details both the ordinary and extraordinary, Stay True is a bracing memoir about growing up, and about moving through the world in search of meaning and belonging.

The prescient, page-turning account of a journey in Silicon Valley: a defining memoir of our digital age
In her mid-twenties, at the height of tech industry idealism, Anna Wiener―stuck, broke, and looking for meaning in her work, like any good millennial―left a job in book publishing for the promise of the new digital economy. She moved from New York to San Francisco, where she landed at a big-data startup in the heart of the Silicon Valley bubble: a world of surreal extravagance, dubious success, and fresh-faced entrepreneurs hell-bent on domination, glory, and, of course, progress.
Anna arrived during a massive cultural shift, as the tech industry rapidly transformed into a locus of wealth and power rivaling Wall Street. But amid the company ski vacations and in-office speakeasies, boyish camaraderie and ride-or-die corporate fealty, a new Silicon Valley began to emerge: one in far over its head, one that enriched itself at the expense of the idyllic future it claimed to be building.
Part coming-of-age-story, part portrait of an already bygone era, Anna Wiener’s memoir, Uncanny Valley, is a rare first-person glimpse into high-flying, reckless startup culture at a time of unchecked ambition, unregulated surveillance, wild fortune, and accelerating political power. With wit, candor, and heart, Anna deftly charts the tech industry’s shift from self-appointed world savior to democracy-endangering liability, alongside a personal narrative of aspiration, ambivalence, and disillusionment.

She was known to the world as Emily Doe when she stunned millions with a letter. Brock Turner had been sentenced to just six months in county jail after he was found sexually assaulting her on Stanford's campus. Her victim impact statement was posted on BuzzFeed, where it instantly went viral--viewed by eleven million people within four days, it was translated globally and read on the floor of Congress; it inspired changes in California law and the recall of the judge in the case. Thousands wrote to say that she had given them the courage to share their own experiences of assault for the first time.
Now she reclaims her identity to tell her story of trauma, transcendence, and the power of words. It was the perfect case, in many ways--there were eyewitnesses, Turner ran away, physical evidence was immediately secured. But her struggles with isolation and shame during the aftermath and the trial reveal the oppression victims face in even the best-case scenarios. Her story illuminates a culture biased to protect perpetrators, indicts a criminal justice system designed to fail the most vulnerable, and, ultimately, shines with the courage required to move through suffering and live a full and beautiful life.
Know My Name will forever transform the way we think about sexual assault, challenging our beliefs about what is acceptable and speaking truth to the tumultuous reality of healing. It also introduces readers to an extraordinary writer, one whose words have already changed our world. Entwining pain, resilience, and humor, this memoir will stand as a modern classic.

Whether we love them or hate them, think they’re sexy, think they’re strange, consider them too big, too small, or anywhere in between, humans have a complicated relationship with butts. It is a body part unique to humans, critical to our evolution and survival, and yet it has come to signify so much more: sex, desire, comedy, shame. A woman’s butt, in particular, is forever being assessed, criticized, and objectified, from anxious self-examinations trying on jeans in department store dressing rooms to enduring crass remarks while walking down a street or high school hallways. But why? In <i>Butts: A Backstory, </i>reporter, essayist, and<i> RadioLab </i>contributing editor Heather Radke is determined to find out.<br /> <br />Spanning nearly two centuries, this “whip-smart” (<i>Publishers Weekly</i>, starred review) cultural history takes us from the performance halls of 19th-century London to the aerobics studios of the 1980s, the music video set of Sir Mix-a-Lot’s “Baby Got Back” and the mountains of Arizona, where every year humans and horses race in a feat of gluteal endurance. Along the way, she meets evolutionary biologists who study how butts first developed; models whose measurements have defined jean sizing for millions of women; and the fitness gurus who created fads like “Buns of Steel.” She also examines the central importance of race through figures like Sarah Bartmann, once known as the “Venus Hottentot,” Josephine Baker, Jennifer Lopez, and other women of color whose butts have been idolized, envied, and despised.<br /> <br />Part deep dive reportage, part personal journey, part cabinet of curiosities, <i>Butts </i>is an entertaining, illuminating, and thoughtful examination of why certain silhouettes come in and out of fashion—and how larger ideas about race, control, liberation, and power affect our most private feelings about ourselves and others.

《关于他人的痛苦》是苏珊·桑塔格继《论摄影》之后又一本关于摄影的专著，也是她生前的最后一部作品。这本书聚焦于战争摄影，探讨影像反映出的人的痛苦与观者之间的关系。惨不忍睹的影像尽管能唤起观者的悲悯之心，但人们的无能为力感更让这些在生活中无孔不入，又格格不入的影像显得多余而荒诞。若不经思考而直接相信影像之内容，我们的道德判断力只会愈来愈弱。桑塔格以纯文字书写影像，为观者提供思考空间以正视“他人的痛苦”。

In an era of increasing social isolation, platforms like Facebook and Twitter are among the most important tools we have to understand each other. We use social media as a mirror to decipher our place in society but, as Chris Bail explains, it functions more like a prism that distorts our identities, empowers status-seeking extremists, and renders moderates all but invisible. Breaking the Social Media Prism challenges common myths about echo chambers, foreign misinformation campaigns, and radicalizing algorithms, revealing that the solution to political tribalism lies deep inside ourselves.
Drawing on innovative online experiments and in-depth interviews with social media users from across the political spectrum, this book explains why stepping outside of our echo chambers can make us more polarized, not less. Bail takes you inside the minds of online extremists through vivid narratives that trace their lives on the platforms and off—detailing how they dominate public discourse at the expense of the moderate majority. Wherever you stand on the spectrum of user behavior and political opinion, he offers fresh solutions to counter political tribalism from the bottom up and the top down. He introduces new apps and bots to help readers avoid misperceptions and engage in better conversations with the other side. Finally, he explores what the virtual public square might look like if we could hit “reset” and redesign social media from scratch through a first-of-its-kind experiment on a new social media platform built for scientific research.
Providing data-driven recommendations for strengthening our social media connections, Breaking the Social Media Prism shows how to combat online polarization without deleting our accounts.

<b>A celebrated Danish writer explores the unsung histories and geographies of her beloved slice of the world</b>. <br /><br /><i>Me, my notebook and my love of the wild and desolate. I wanted to do the opposite of what was expected of me. It’s a recurring pattern in my life. An instinct.</i><br /><br /> Dorthe Nors’s first nonfiction book chronicles a year she spent traveling along the North Sea coast—from Skagen at the northern tip of Denmark to the Frisian Islands in the Wadden Sea. In fourteen expansive essays, Nors traces the history, geography, and culture of the places she visits while reflecting on her childhood and her family and ancestors’ ties to the region as well as her decision to move there from Copenhagen. She writes about the ritual burning of witch effigies on Midsummer’s Eve; the environmental activist who opposed a chemical factory in the 1950s; the quiet fishing villages that surfers transformed into an area known as Cold Hawaii starting in the 1970s. She connects wind turbines to Viking ships, thirteenth-century church frescoes to her mother’s unrealized dreams. She describes strong waves, sand drifts, storm surges, shipwrecks, and other instances of nature asserting its power over human attempts to ignore or control it.<br /><br /> Through a deep, personal engagement with this singular landscape, <i>A Line in the World </i>accesses the universal. Its ultimate subjects are civilization, belonging, and change: changes within one person’s life, changes occurring in various communities today, and change as the only constant of life on Earth.

Captain Maxwell Davis and his entire unit scrambled to engage alien ships over Iowa. The aliens snatched him out of his destroyed jet before they continued on their interplanetary hot pursuit. Then they informed Max that Earth was too far outside regular shipping lanes to return him to his planet.<br /><br />So Max ends up in an alien spaceport looking for work. To afford a ticket home he can either spend three hundred years working with linguists to improve the computer's questionable ability to translate English or he can take a job as a nanny for an unpopular alien.  That way he can afford the ticket in four years.  The problem is that the computer may have mistranslated the word "nanny" and there might be a reason an alien is willing to pay such a high fee.

Edited and with an introduction by Roxane Gay, the New York Times bestselling and deeply beloved author of Bad Feminist and Hunger, this anthology of first-person essays tackles rape, assault, and harassment head-on.
In this valuable and revealing anthology, cultural critic and bestselling author Roxane Gay collects original and previously published pieces that address what it means to live in a world where women have to measure the harassment, violence, and aggression they face, and where they are “routinely second-guessed, blown off, discredited, denigrated, besmirched, belittled, patronized, mocked, shamed, gaslit, insulted, bullied” for speaking out. Contributions include essays from established and up-and-coming writers, performers, and critics, including actors Ally Sheedy and Gabrielle Union and writers Amy Jo Burns, Lyz Lenz, Claire Schwartz, and Bob Shacochis. Covering a wide range of topics and experiences, from an exploration of the rape epidemic embedded in the refugee crisis to first-person accounts of child molestation, this collection is often deeply personal and is always unflinchingly honest. Like Rebecca Solnit’s Men Explain Things to Me, Not That Bad will resonate with every reader, saying “something in totality that we cannot say alone.”
Searing and heartbreakingly candid, this provocative collection both reflects the world we live in and offers a call to arms insisting that “not that bad” must no longer be good enough.

Norma Jeane Baker of Troy is a meditation on the destabilizing and destructive power of beauty, drawing together Helen of Troy and Marilyn Monroe, twin avatars of female fascination separated by millennia but united in mythopoeic force. Norma Jeane Baker was staged in the spring of 2019 at The Shed’s Griffin Theater in New York, starring actor Ben Whishaw and oprsano Renée Fleming and directed by Katie Mitchell.

<i>Shirley Jackson</i> reveals the tumultuous life and inner darkness of the literary genius behind such classics as <i>The Lottery</i> and <em>The Haunting of Hill House</em>. In this “remarkable act of reclamation” (Neil Gaiman), Ruth Franklin envisions Jackson as “belonging to the great tradition of Hawthorne, Poe and James” (<em>New York Times Book Review</em>) and demonstrates how her unique contribution to the canon “so uncannily channeled women’s nightmares and contradictions that it is ‘nothing less than the secret history of American women of her era’ ” (<em>Washington Post</em>). Franklin investigates the “interplay between the life, the work, and the times with real skill and insight, making this fine book a real contribution not only to biography, but to mid-20th-century women’s history” (<em>Chicago Tribune</em>). “Wisely rescu[ing] Shirley Jackson from any semblance of obscurity” (Lena Dunham), Franklin’s invigorating portrait stands as the definitive biography of a generational avatar and an American literary genius.

An electrifying novel about beauty, envy, and carelessness from Deborah Levy, author of the Booker Prize finalists Hot Milk and Swimming Home.
It is 1988 and Saul Adler, a narcissistic young historian, has been invited to Communist East Berlin to do research; in exchange, he must publish a favorable essay about the German Democratic Republic. As a gift for his translator's sister, a Beatles fanatic who will be his host, Saul's girlfriend will shoot a photograph of him standing in the crosswalk on Abbey Road, an homage to the famous album cover. As he waits for her to arrive, he is grazed by an oncoming car, which changes the trajectory of his life.
The Man Who Saw Everything is about the difficulty of seeing ourselves and others clearly. It greets the specters that come back to haunt old and new love, previous and current incarnations of Europe, conscious and unconscious transgressions, and real and imagined betrayals, while investigating the cyclic nature of history and its reinvention by people in power. Here, Levy traverses the vast reaches of the human imagination while artfully blurring sexual and political binaries-feminine and masculine.
