Tell Me Why, Mummy
David Thomas
¥73.58
The inspirational true story of one man overcoming enormous odds – including sexual abuse from his alcoholic mother – to choose his own path in life and become a truly exceptional human being. From the age of four David Thomas was sexually abused by his alcoholic mother and subsequently physically abused by his aged stepfather. By the age of 16 he had committed multiple burglaries, assaulted a police officer with an iron bar, attempted suicide, received a criminal conviction from a juvenile court, and been expelled from school. He left home as soon as he could and joined the fire service at 20. At the age of 27 he bought a book on memory. Within 8 months he had come fourth in the World Memory Championships and went on to develop one of the most powerful memories in history, even breaking an 18-year-old Guinness Book of Records memory record by reciting the mathematical formula Pi (3.1459) to 22,500 digits from memory. In 1999 he was reunited with his mother after 4 years apart but tragically, a year later he found her dead at home after she had died of an alcohol induced heart attack. David's shocking and moving story is one of abuse, alcoholism, courage, determination, forgiveness, love and how everyone can choose their own path through life irrespective of their upbringing, background or perceptions about what they think is possible. David is an incredible example of how this can happen.

The next book from the number one bestselling author of Cry Silent Tears. Joe was only five years old when he lost his voice. Only five years old when he was first beaten by his mother and raped by her boyfriend. And only nine years old when his mother sold him to a paedophile ring. At sixteen, Joe finally found the courage to escape and headed for Charing Cross station with no money in his pocket, no friends and nowhere to turn to. But the nightmare was far from over. Haunted by his harrowing past, Joe's life spiralled out of control. Living on the lonely streets of London, Joe turned down a dark path of crime and self-destruction and it seemed that he was bound for prison. Until the love of a good woman set him free… This is the ultimate story of triumph over evil, of survival and redemption. Heartbreaking, but unbelievably inspiring, it is a testament to the unbreakable resilience of a little boy who grew up into a remarkable man. Now that he has found his voice again, Joe speaks out against child abuse and helps support and protect other children whose lives have been blighted by it.
Labyrinths
Labyrinths
Catrine Clay

The story of Emma and Carl Jung's highly unconventional marriage, their relationship with Freud, and their part in the early years of Psychoanalysis. Emma Jung was clever, ambitious and immensely wealthy, one of the richest heiresses in Switzerland when, aged seventeen, she met and fell in love with Carl Jung, a handsome, penniless medical student. Determined to share his adventurous life, and to continue her own studies, she was too young to understand Carl’s complex personality or conceive the dramas that lay ahead. Labyrinths tells the story of the Jungs’ unconventional marriage, their friendship and, following publication of Jung’s The Psychology of the Unconscious, subsequent rift with Freud. It traces Jung’s development of word association, notions of the archetype, the collective unconscious, the concepts of extraversion and introversion and the role played by both Carl and Emma in the early development of the scandalous new Psychoanalysis movement. In its many twists and turns, the Jung marriage was indeed labyrinthine and Emma was forced to fight with everything she had to come to terms with Carl’s brilliant, complex character and to keep her husband close to her. His belief in polygamy led to many extra-marital affairs including a menage a trois with a former patient Toni Wolff that lasted some thirty years. But the marriage endured and Emma realised her ambition to become a noted analyst in her own right.

Poemele lui Marius Aldea sunt inteligent-fanteziste i dau o senzaie de prospeime, dei refolosete, frecvent, i mijloace de seducie inventate de Nichita Stnescu, Emil Brumaru, Mircea Dinescu. Marius Aldea are o plcere de a scrie care face ca tot ce mprumut s devin al lui.“ – Alex tefnescu Marius tefan Aldea face parte din plutonul tinerilor poei crora li se flfie de generaia imediat anterioar, ns nu li se deloc de generaiile vechi. Vd i prevd o promoie de poei lucizi i cultivai printre care compozitorul Simfoniei frnei va strluci. Pentru c are umor, deci i permite s fie cinic, i pentru c izbutete nite metafore trsnite, dar fluente, nu rscutate. Apoi ochiul su este flmnd i precis, nu hoinrete pe firmament pn se ntoarce cu albul n sus. Viteza, claritatea i subtilitatea artei lui monteaz un spectacol inteligent – un deliciu pentru durii ca el, care, de fapt, ascund un suflet sensibil n spatele rictusului sceptic. Un romantic de factur excelent este Marius, adic dintre aceia cu witz, care muc tot, iar apoi se muc pe ei nii. Irezistibil poezia asta ca un roman scris la col de strad de un designer care tie exact ce vrea de la manechinele lui.“ – Felix Nicolau Marius tefan Aldea are atta energie poetic, nct exist riscul s supratensioneze Sistemul Naional de Distribuie a Literaturii. Dar cum SNDL nu exist dect n imaginaia noastr, nu v rmne, dragi cititori, dect s v conectai singuri la aceast surs de energie. E simplu: deschidei cartea lui Marius i citii puin. Dac nu suntei purttori de mnui izolante i cizme de cauciuc, ar trebui ca n secunda a doua s fii scuturai zdravn, iar minile s vi se ncleteze pe carte. E doar unul dintre efectele pe care l are poezia bun asupra omului.“ – Robert erban

Selecia prozatorilor din comunism se cere ceva mai struitor argumentat dect cea a prozatorilor interbelici (termen uzual, dar neacoperitor, pentru c includem n aceast perioad i vremurile de rzboi). Exemplaritatea, aici, e motivat de valoarea, originalitatea, insolitul, atipicitatea (stranietatea, cu termenul lui Harold Bloom) epicii. Urmresc – o spun riscnd simplificarea – fondul autohton i forma universal. Dau prioritate experimentului, dac nnoirea este substanial, se integreaz n – i face sau ncearc diferena de – epica occidental. Fac o concesie cu M. Preda, prozatorul emblematic al unei epoci istorice ntunecate (cu toate nuanele de ntuneric i rarele ei strfulgerri de lumin). Previn uor reproul de a ocoli n selecie prozatori care abia dac debutau sau publicau primele cri pn n 1989.“ – Marian Victor Buciu

Am adunat n aceast carte momente din viaa public, ncercnd s refac, din ceea ce a selectat memoria, traseul profesional care m-a adus de la catedra de fizic la ipostaza de candidat pentru preedinie. Am inclus n ea i lucruri personale, dar nu am fcut-o neaprat pentru a rspunde curiozitii celorlali. Am recuperat acele ntmplri, ntlniri sau detalii care au spus ceva despre felul n care m-am format, despre valorile pe care le-am preuit. Identitatea mea personal a umplut, prin intermediul faptelor, dar i prin aceste principii n care am crezut, rolul de persoan public pe care l-am ocupat mai bine de paisprezece ani. Momentele n care am descoperit un adevr, intervalele n care am nvat lucruri importante, despre mine sau despre oamenii din jurul meu, i-au adus de fiecare dat ceva i profilului meu public. Tot ceea ce am dobndit i tot ceea ce am neles de-a lungul unei viei cu destul de multe mpliniri a lucrat n sprijinul profesionistului care am vrut s ajung. Viaa mea privat a fost, pentru cei mai muli, invizibil. De fapt, ca orice om, mi-am folosit n public tot ceea ce am descoperit ca fiind valoros n viaa simpl, de zi cu zi: calmul, discreia, nelegerea. Au fost bunuri preioase, pe care am vrut s le protejez ca s le pot cultiva n continuare. Nu cred c, dezvluindu-le sursa, le pun n pericol.“ Klaus Iohannis

n aceast carte, ncerc, de fapt, s-mi schimb instrumentele i felul de a scrie critic literar. Pentru c nsi condiia criticii literare s-a schimbat. Dintr-un gen diurn, care atingea o maxim strlucire – vezi explozia ei, din deceniile ’60 – ’80, cnd devenise genul dominant al literaturii –, critica a devenit o disciplin aproape subversiv, practicat pe ascuns (n Universitate) sau n locuri dosnice (revistele literare, care au – toate – tiraje confideniale). Critica s-a transformat, aadar, fr sa vrea, ntr-un gen nocturn, practicat de lunatici“ i accesibil numai acestora. Tinerii scriitori i refuz diagnosticul, cei mai vrstnici se supr dac nu sunt ludai peste msur, iar presa i d cu tifla, subliniind n orice mprejurare superioritatea (i avantajele) publicitii, n raport cu desueta judecat de valoare. i aceasta, deoarece acea splendid explozie a metodelor de lectur, a formelor i modalitilor critice, din deceniile anterioare, a sectuit de fapt disciplina. i a multiplicat la nesfrit posibilitile interpretrii, pn cnd nelesul textului literar a devenit cu totul obscur i, n fond, chiar facultativ. Totul este pus sub semnul ntrebrii, iar sacrosancta valoare estetic, pe care jura critica modernist, a fost de mult relegat din discursul critic. Care discurs ncepe s semene, astfel, cu o noapte adnc, n care mai plpie, ici-colo, asemenea unor stele palide, rmiele unor certitudini. (Rzvan Voncu)

Ronnie Biggs - The Inside Story
Ronnie Biggs - The Inside Story
Currie / Gray, Tel / Mike
¥73.48
Ronnie Biggs: The Inside Story, written by two of Ronnie Biggs's closest friends and most ardent supporters, delivers exactly what it says on the label, giving a very personal, unique and yet disturbing insight into the mind and subsequent treatment by the judicial and penal systems of the man that became a legendary household name for his role in one of Britain's most notorious crimes, the Great Train Robbery of 1963, and his subsequent life on the run upon his escape from prison in 1965. Raising pointed questions and dispelling many myths, the story makes one wonder who is the greater criminal: the carpenter that played a bit part in an unarmed robbery 45 years ago, who has remained incarcerated since his return to the UK in 2001 despite the fact that he is now a frail, wheelchair-bound 79-year-old grandfather who is no threat to society, is fed via a tube to his stomach and can only communicate by pointing to letters on a laminated sheet; or the justice and prison systems that have allowed him to rot in jail for so long. One thing's for sure, although Ronnie Biggs's body is letting him down after a series of strokes and other illnesses, his legal team, campaign supporters, underworld friends and devoted family certainly aren't, and neither is his own fighting spirit or his humanity in the face of inhumanity. All he wants now is to be able to die a free man rather than suffer "e;a slow crucifixion on the Home Office cross"e;, and once all the facts have been digested one can only be moved to ask: "e;How could anyone deny him that?"e;
