    • Professor John Halder is a 'good' man. But 'good' men must adapt to survive. As the world faces its Second World War, Halder finds himself pulled into a movement with unthinkable consequences. Good is a story about a liberal-minded university professor who drifts well-meaningly into a position in the upper reaches of the Nazi administration. John Halder, a professor of literature, seems to be a good man; he diligently visits his blind and senile mother and looks after his vacant wife and three children. He is unremarkable, other than an unusual neurotic tic: the imaginary sound of band music plays in the background of his life, particularly at moments of high emotion. But by writing a book – the result of his own experience – discussing euthanasia for senile elderly people and by lecturing on the delicacy of German literary culture, John has unintentionally made himself a very desirable acquisition for the Nazi party. A profound and alarming examination of passivity and the rationalisation of evil. Originally published in 1982, this new edition was published to coincide with the West End revival in 2022 starring David Tennant.

      An astonishing debut poetry collection wrestling with desire, vulnerability, sex work and money from writer and poet Erin Taylor. Erin Taylor’s Bimboland is an astute and confident debut, balancing, in their blistering and tender style, their life as a sex worker and socialist politics. The poems are full of desire and vulnerability, insight and calls to action, both personal and societal. You can get lost in the insatiable pace of their words and the way in which you feel, as they feel, “powerful yet somehow / nothing.”

      An ex-con hits the streets of L.A. to find her twin sister’s killer. Is it a mission of justice—or a quest for vengeance? Cody Bonner, identical twin, daughter of a major movie star, a teenage street kid in Los Angeles, a bank robber at nineteen, and a prison inmate at twenty. When she’s released after six years, she returns to L.A. with a purpose: to learn the truth about her sister Julie, who washed up on a Malibu beach a year earlier. The connection between the twins was so powerful that the day Julie died, Cody collapsed in the prison yard. Now that bond is driving her to seek justice—at any cost. Using bootleg skills she learned in prison, Cody begins to peel back the layers of mystery. Her search leads her to the darker alleys behind the dazzle of the film business, and into the world of high-powered agents, high-priced call girls, and men with a taste for sexual violence. As she homes in on her mother’s powerful agent, Harry Groban, a man with ugly accusations of abuse in his past, Cody becomes more deeply enmeshed in the life she left behind as a teenager: her mother’s star power, her former classmates-turned-producers, glitzy parties, and a handsome former love who knows all the players. Is Groban at the center? Could there be others who had a hand in Julie’s murder? As Cody gets closer to the truth, another ghost from her criminal past is stalking her—one that could put her back in prison for years.

    • Błyskotliwe wprowadzenia w prace kluczowych filozofów i najważniejsze idee filozofii. Autorami poszczególnych tomów serii, wydanej w oryginale przez Oxford University Press, są wybitni specjaliści w prezentowanych obszarach. Sokrates zajmuje wyjątkowe miejsce w historii filozofii. Jest uznawany za jednego z najważniejszych myślicieli starożytności, a jednocześnie najbardziej nieuchwytnego. Nie pozostawił po sobie żadnych dzieł, a wszystko, co o nim wiemy, pochodzi z pism jego uczniów, Platona i Ksenofonta. Christopher Taylor bada związki pomiędzy historycznym Sokratesem a postacią przedstawianą w rozmaitych tekstach z nim w roli głównej. Ponadto analizuje wpływ Sokratesa na rozwój myśli filozoficznej XIX i XX wieku i przygląda się utrwalonemu w kulturze obrazowi Sokratesa jako idealnego wzorca filozoficznego życia.
