这次，凯鲁亚克终于不再和朋友疯玩了，他一个人上路，去品味人生的孤独。 1960年，那个用三个星期敲出《在路上》的疯小子，蹲在深山火警瞭望台上，对着空无一人的荒野写下了这么一句话：“每个人都应该体验一次健康甚至枯燥的荒野独居生活——只依靠自己，你会因此了解自己真正的潜力。” 《孤独旅者》当然不是《在路上2.0》，它是凯鲁亚克把自己剥光了的“人肉游记”。他一个人钻进铁路工棚当搬运工，爬上货船当水手，窝在墨西哥的茅舍里吃仙人掌，*后把自己扔进深山老林——整整63天，方圆几十公里只有他自己和三只松鼠。 在这里，再也没有迪安·莫里亚蒂，没有酒鬼同伴，没有嗑药狂欢，没有别人的老婆。在凌晨四点半，被人叫醒赶火车时，他对着黑暗说了一句：“我没有母亲，没有姐妹，也没有父亲。” 他说，这本书“只是诗，或者说，自然的描述”。如果翻译成人话，那就是：我不装了，我把“孤独”两个字，活成了一本说明书。 当你觉得世界都在催你合群之时，凯鲁亚克在书里拍着你肩膀说：一个人并不可耻；可耻的是，你从来没敢试过。

一个被所有人嫌弃的“野种”，用一场20年的复仇毁掉了两个家族。 艾米莉·勃朗特，牧师之女，一生孤独幽闭，没谈过恋爱，却在30岁时写下了英国文学*变态、*暴烈、*让人头皮发麻的爱情小说。 《呼啸山庄》：不是什么浪漫经典，是两个疯子互相撕咬了一辈子还死不松口的恐怖故事。希斯克利夫——这个比乞丐还脏、比野兽还狠的男人，被羞辱、被踩碎、被夺走爱人之后，选择了*漫长的报复：他娶仇家的妹妹，霸占仇家的庄园，甚至把仇恨延续到下一代头上。 你以为这是爱情？不，这是饥饿。是灵魂被掏空后只剩恨在支撑的饥饿。全书没有一丝温情，在风雨交加的荒原上，坟墓比床更让人安心。 “别把我埋进教堂，让我躺在爱人的身边——让我们的尸体一起腐烂。” 读完这本书，你有没有怀疑：爱和恨，到底谁更像活着的证据？

The classic essays. According to Wikipedia: "Henry David Thoreau (1817 – 1862) was an American author, naturalist, transcendentalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, stage writer and philosopher. He is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay, Civil Disobedience, an argument for individual resistance to civil government in moral opposition to an unjust state. Thoreau's books, articles, essays, journals, and poetry total over 20 volumes. Among his lasting contributions were his writings on natural history and philosophy, where he anticipated the methods and findings of ecology and environmental history, two sources of modern day environmentalism...Thoreau is sometimes cited as an individualist anarchist as well as an inspiration to anarchists. Though Civil Disobedience calls for improving rather than abolishing government – "I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government" – the direction of this improvement aims at anarchism: “‘That government is best which governs not at all;’ and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have.”

Discover the man behind the moustache in this book of one-liners by the world’s most famous Belgian detective, revealing the wit and wisdom of Hercule Poirot and his creator, Agatha Christie. A perfect stocking-filler for every Christie fan, to help celebrate her 125th birthday. ‘My name is Hercule Poirot and I am probably the greatest detective in the world.’ The dapper, moustache-twirling little Belgian with the egg-shaped head, curious mannerisms and inordinate respect for his own ‘little grey cells’ solved some of the twentieth century’s most puzzling crimes. But what do we really know about the eccentric genius underneath that fussy fa?ade? Sometimes funny, often profound, and always revealing, this book of quotes and comments, from more than 50 Poirot novels and short stories, gives an entertaining glimpse of the man behind the moustache, and the wit and wisdom of the Queen of Crime who created him. Includes an exclusive essay by Agatha Christie from the archives on her love/hate relationship with her most famous creation.

But Laura's emotions towards her sister changed dramatically one night, when she vowed to protect her with all her strength and love.

A story of consequences when love turns to obsession… Famous for her ingenious crime books and plays, Agatha Christie also wrote about crimes of the heart, six bittersweet and very personal novels, as compelling and memorable as the best of her work.

From the author of What to Eat and Shopped, a revelatory investigation into what really goes into the food we eat. Even with 25 years experience as a journalist and investigator of the food chain, Joanna Blythman still felt she had unanswered questions about the food we consume every day. How ‘natural’ is the process for making a ‘natural’ flavouring? What, exactly, is modified starch, and why is it an ingredient in so many foods? What is done to pitta bread to make it stay ‘fresh’ for six months? And why, when you eat a supermarket salad, does the taste linger in your mouth for several hours after? Swallow This is a fascinating exploration of the food processing industry and its products – not just the more obvious ready meals, chicken nuggets and tinned soups, but the less overtly industrial – washed salads, smoothies, yoghurts, cereal bars, bread, fruit juice, prepared vegetables. Forget illegal, horse-meat-scandal processes, every step in the production of these is legal, but practised by a strange and inaccessible industry, with methods a world-away from our idea of domestic food preparation, and obscured by technical speak, unintelligible ingredients manuals, and clever labelling practices. Determined to get to the bottom of the impact the industry has on our food, Joanna Blythman has gained unprecedented access to factories, suppliers and industry insiders, to give an utterly eye-opening account of what we’re really swallowing.

All Beth’s ever had on Valentine’s Day is unwanted junk mail and unpaid bills! But this year, when the post lands on her doormat, one item in particular catches her eye… Could this be Beth first ever genuine Valentine’s Day card?! The handwritten card might be a cheesy cliché….but who cares! The big question is - who is it from? Unfortunately, the only possibilities racing through her head are people she sincerely hopes didn’t send it, including all of her definitely-not-Mr-Perfect exes. (Oh, or the guy in Accounts with the comb-over!) Sadly, Beth’s pretty sure it’s not from Luke – her dishy new neighbour with the super-glamorous model girlfriend, and dreamy eyes that have never once noticed her… Or have they? For a girl who’s never received so much as a Valentine’s e-mail before, this February 14th Beth finds herself with a secret admirer…who could just turn out to be The One!

Hauntingly evocative of medieval Spain, a deeply compelling story of love, adventure, divided loyalties, and what happens when beliefs begin to remake – or destroy – a world. The ruling Asharites of Al-Rassan have come from the desert sands, but over centuries, seduced by the sensuous pleasures of their new land, their stern piety has eroded. The Asharite empire has splintered into decadent city-states led by warring petty kings. King Almalik of Cartada is on the ascendancy, aided always by his friend and advisor, the notorious Ammar ibn Khairan – poet, diplomat, soldier – until a summer afternoon of savage brutality changes their relationship forever. Meanwhile, in the north, the conquered Jaddites' most celebrated – and feared – military leader, Rodrigo Belmonte, driven into exile, leads his mercenary company south. In the dangerous lands of Al-Rassan, these two men from different worlds meet and serve – for a time – the same master. Tangled in their interwoven fate – and divided by her feelings – is Jehane, the accomplished court physician, whose skills may not be enough to heal the coming pain as Al-Rassan is swept to the brink of holy war, and beyond.

A radical new response to a widely misunderstood conditionWe are witnessing a global epidemic of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder. Millions are suffering from attention issues, while millions more are reliant on stimulant medication to perform at school and at work. Despite decades of advancements in neuroscience, the definition of ADHD has remained essentially unchanged since its introduction in 1980, and its prevalence in the population has skyrocketed.In this controversial and landmark work, Dr. Richard Saul draws from five decades as a practicing physician and researcher in the field to contend that the definition of ADHD as we know it is completely wrong. Instead, he argues that the "disorder" is a cluster of symptoms stemming from more than twenty other conditions, each requiring separate treatment. The detailed list ranges from mild problems like poor eyesight, sleep deprivation, and even boredom in the classroom, to more severe conditions like depression and bipolar disorder.Through the lens of history and into the present day, Dr. Saul examines "ADHD," exploring the rising cultural and medical trends that have birthed the stimulant epidemic. Both comprehensive and illuminative, ADHD Does Not Exist is essential reading for doctors, practitioners, educators, and individuals who are seeking an honest approach to understanding and treating this complex condition.
