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.”

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!

When no-one believes her, she storms off home. But within hours her body is found, still in the house, drowned in an apple-bobbing tub.

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.

This book is for seekers of truth beyond the teachings of parents, churches, schools, and communities. Forty years in the making, it includes the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of living, from the seemingly obvious to the occult, from the boundless diversity of paths toward Divine understanding and the unification of it all. The unity of the universe as functions of light and sound is explained and demonstrated in many examples. Light and sound are part of the same continuum of vibrations; they are simply different frequencies, as are things we see and hear, as well as microwaves, infrared light, and so on. At the heart of this continuum is the sound of the universe, the primordial Word: the Om of the Taoists, Aum of the Hindus and Buddhists, Amen of the Christians, Hu of the Ecks or the religion of Light and Sound and Hum of the Tibetans. These phenomena are explored by the author, who has experienced the discovery of one’s self and place in the universe.

Meet Detective Sergeant Alicia Friend. She’s nice. Too nice to be a police officer, if she’s honest. Now assigned to DI Donald Murphy’s team, the annoyingly-perky detective finds herself in the grip of a northern British winter, investigating the kidnap-murders of two young women - both strikingly similar in appearance. When a third is taken, they have less than a week to chip away the secrets of a high-society family, and uncover the killer’s objective. But Richard - the father of the latest victim - believes the police are not moving quickly enough, so launches a parallel investigation, utilising skills honed in a dark past that is about to catch up with him. As Richard’s secret actions hinder the police, Alicia remains in contact with him, and even starts to fall for his charms, forcing her into choices that will impact the rest of her life.

Reviews CrimeFictionLover.com “An intriguing mix of police procedural and serial killer thriller, that will tease, involve and unnerve you. An entertaining and intriguing debut.” Undercover Book Reviews: “Want a book with twists and turns? This is the one. It will not disappoint.” AUTHOR Q&A Q: Alicia Friend is kind of an oddball, isn’t she? A: I’d say she’s unique. She knows who she wants to be and she doesn’t compromise, but most police officers she meets are dour and grumpy, and she sees how that impacts their personal lives. She doesn’t want to be as hard-nosed as many women sleuths in fiction, so radiates the sort of perkiness that sometimes grates on her fellow officers. But it’s who she is. Q: Despite having a quirky woman sleuth as main character, the novel goes to some dark places. A: Yes. I found that at one point I was trying to include ALL my research, and I’m really aiming for a thrill ride as much a straight police procedural. I originally included the sort of forensic details you get with Patricia Cornwell or Kathy Reichs, but it wasn’t right for this book. I keep it as accurate as possible, but it’s about the characters and how they uncover secrets, both externally and within the police. Q: So who is your ideal reader? A: Fans of serial killer books in general. If you like James Patterson, PJ Tracy or Steven James, Mark Billingham or Ian Rankin, Alicia Friend’s series could be worth checking out. Q: What levels of violence and bad language are there? A: Some of the violence is graphic, but the language … that goes as strong as references to one’s posterior and some faecal synonyms, if you get my meaning. No “F” or “C” words, as I don’t think Alicia’s audience appreciates that. Q: And how, exactly, do you come up with a character like Alicia? A: She is based on a real person. But very loosely. The essence is there, although I had to invent certain aspects for dramatic effect. The parts from real life are: a ditzy, perky outer shell, yet possesses a fierce intelligence, true dedication, and being brilliant at her job. Q: So the real Alicia Friend isn’t a serving police officer? A: No, she isn’t. And if she was, I certainly wouldn’t say so here.
