“Tape’s Rolling, Take One”
￥51.91
Adrian Kerridge was part of the British recording industry for the past 50 years. His revolutionary and often forthright approach within the music industry put him at the centre of the recording world for half a century. As owner of the eminent Lansdowne Studios - birth place of the Dave Clark Five, and home to numerous household name artists and session stories as well as the cofounding father of the CADAC console brand - he witnessed first-hand the technological changes of an industry transitioning from analogue tape to multi-track to digital recording and editing in the 80s and forwards; was a forerunner in the 60s of the then experimental practice of direct injection – now widely employed by sound engineers and laid the foundations for a more modern upfront sound that was lacking in the 50s and early 60s. Renowned for creating unique sonic signatures for bands and other recording artists, Adrian’s approach to recording was unlike anything the industry had seen in the years previous. He recorded “hot”, clean and gutsy while his contemporaries were more conservative in their approach. This book traces his personal and professional journey from war time Britain to the swinging 60s. Imparting his professional knowledge through his explanations and diagrams intertwined with the remarkable story of his life Adrian Kerridge 1938 – 2016

Men of Achievement Inventors
￥56.82
In Men of Achievement Phillip Hubert writes about inventors Benjamin Franklin, Robert Fulton, Eli Whitney, Elias Howe, Samuel Morse, Charles Goodyear, Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell, as well as many others. He reviews their inventions and also examines the inventor: their origins, hopes, aims, principles, disappointments, trials and triumphs ,and their daily life and personal character. With over forty-five illustrations, Men of Achievement discusses the value of their work – the invention of steam power, electricity, the telegraph, the telephone, phonograph, the camera, and Goodyear’s vulcanized rubber. With the patent laws of the time it also highlights how these men contributed thousands of millions of dollars to the nation’s wealth and, in some cases, received comparatively little in return.

How Dare We! Write:A Multicultural Creative Writing Discourse
￥56.82
How Dare We! Write: a multicultural creative writing discourse offers a much needed corrective to the usual dry and uninspired creative writing pedagogy. The collection asks us to consider questions, such as "What does it mean to work through resistance from supposed mentors, to face rejection from publishers and classmates, and to stand against traditions that silence you?" and "How can writers and teachers even begin to make diversity matter in meaningful ways on the page, in the classroom, and on our bookshelves?" How Dare We! Write is an inspiring collection of intellectually rigorous lyric essays and innovative writing exercises; it opens up a path for inquiry, reflection, understanding, and creativity that is ultimately healing. The testimonies provide a hard won context for their innovative paired writing experiments that are, by their very nature, generative. --Cherise A. Pollard, PhD, Professor of English, West Chester University of Pennsylvania So-called "creative writing" classes are highly politicized spaces, but no one says so; to acknowledge this obvious fact would be to up-end the aesthetics, cultural politics (ideology) and economics on which most educational institutions are founded How Dare We! Write, a brilliant interventive anthology of essays, breaks this silence. --Maria Damon, Pratt Institute of Art; co-editor of Poetry and Cultural Studies: A Reader How Dare We! Write a collection of brave voices calling out to writers of color everywhere: no matter how lonely, you are not alone; you are one in a sea of change, swimming against the currents. --Kao Kalia Yang, author of The Latehomecomer: A Hmong Family Memoir, and The Song Poet, a 2017 Minnesota Book Award winner How Dare We! Write is a much needed collection of essays from writers of color that reminds us that our stories need to be told, from addressing academic gatekeepers, embracing our identities, the effects of the oppressor's tongue on our psyche and to the personal narratives that help us understand who we are. --Rodrigo Sanchez-Chavarria, writer, spoken word poet/performer and contributing author to A Good Time for the Truth: Race in Minnesota Learn more at http://blog.SherryQuanLee.com From Modern History Press www.ModernHistoryPress.com

A Voyage to Laputa, Balnibarbi, Luggnagg, Glubbdubdrib and Japan
￥40.79
Gulliver sets sail again and, after an attack by pirates, ends up in Laputa, where a floating island inhabited by theoreticians and academics oppresses the land below, called Balnibarbi. The scientific research undertaken in Laputa and in Balnibarbi seems totally inane and impractical, and its residents too appear wholly out of touch with reality. Taking a short side trip to Glubbdubdrib, Gulliver is able to witness the conjuring up of figures from history, such as Julius Caesar and other military leaders, whom he finds much less impressive than in books. After visiting the Luggnaggians and the Struldbrugs, the latter of which are senile immortals who prove that age does not bring wisdom, he is able to sail to Japan and from there back to England.

How to Write a Suicide Note:Serial Essays that Saved a Woman's Life
￥56.82
How to Write a Suicide Note examines the life of a Chinese/Black woman who grew up passing for white, who grew up poor, who loves women but has always married white men. Writing has saved her life. It has allowed her to name the historical trauma--the racist, sexist, classist experiences that have kept her from being fully alive, that have screamed at her loudly and consistently that she was no good, and would never be any good-and that no one could love her. Writing has given her the creative power to name the experiences that dictated who she was, even before she was born, and write notes to them, suicide notes. Sherry Quan Lee believes writing saves lives; writing has saved her life.Acclaim for How to Write a Suicide Note "How to Write a Suicide Note is a haunting portrait of the daughter of an African mother and a Chinese father. Sherry dares to be who she isn't supposed to be, feel what she isn't supposed to feel, and destroys racial and gender myths as she integrates her bi-racial identity into all that she is. Through her raw honesty and vulnerability, Sherry captures a range of emotions most people are afraid to confront, or even share. Her work is a gift to the mental health community." --Beth Kyong Lo, M.A., Clinical Psychologist "Sherry Quan Lee offers us, in How to Write a Suicide Note, a deep breathing meditation on how love is under continuous revision. And like all the best Blues singers, Quan Lee voices the lowdown, dirty paces that living puts us through, but without regret or surrender." Wesley Brown, author of Darktown Strutters and Tragic Magic "I love the female aspects, the sex, and the strong voice Sherry Quan Lee uses to share her private life in How To Write A Suicide Note. I love the wit, the tongue-in-cheek, the trippiness of it all. I love the metaphors, especially the lover and suicide ones. I love the free-associations, the 'raving, ravenous, relentless' back and forth. Quan Lee breaks the rules and finds her genius. How to Write a Suicide Note is a passionate, risk-taking, outrageous, life-affirming book and love letter."

Critic? literar? Editura Allfa inaugureaz? seria de volume ?Eminescu, poem cu poem” care va cuprinde ?ntreaga oper? poetic? antum? a marelui poet analizat? de scriitorul ?i criticul literar Alex. ?tef?nescu. Lucrarea ?Eminescu, poem cu poem. Luceaf?rul” ne dezva?? de toate vechile obiceiuri de interpretare care au prezentat ?n limbaj de lemn poezia eminescian?. Alex. ?tef?nescu ne face din nou cuno?tin??, de data aceasta ?n cuvinte simple ?i idei proaspete, cu cea mai cunoscut? poezie din literatura rom?n?. Analiza sa cuprinde observa?ii fresh ?i referin?e culturale pe gustul elevilor, tinerilor ?i iubitorilor de literatur? care (re)descoper? ast?zi poezia eminescian?. Numai un scriitor de geniu poate crea un personaj care s? ajung? mai cunoscut dec?t el. A?a cum Hamlet egaleaz? celebritatea lui Shakespeare, iar Don Quijote pe cea a lui Cervantes, ?i Eminescu este concurat ca notorietate de unul dintre personajele sale, luceaf?rul. Mai mult dec?t at?t, poetul a fost numit p?n? la sa?ietate ?luceaf?rul poeziei rom?ne?ti”, sintagm? despre care Alex. ?tef?nescu spune c? este considerat? ?n prezent o expresie uzat? din limba de lemn a omagierii lui Eminescu. Renun??nd la limbajul bombastic ?n care a fost prezentat p?n? acum, criticul literar subliniaz? frumuse?ea literar? a straniului love-story dintre luceaf?r ?i C?t?lina. Este o poveste de neuitat, comparabil? cu alte iubiri irealizabile (sau posibile numai prin sacrificiu) ?ntip?rite ?n memoria noastr? cultural?, precum aceea dintre Zeus, st?p?nitorul cerurilor, ?i Europa, prin?esa fenician?, cea a lui Romeo ?i a Julietei, ?i precum povestea dintre riga Crypto ?i lapona Enigel din poemul lui Ion Barbu.

Cartea lui Michael Finkenthal ofer o prim, ptrunztoare, lectur critic mai ampl a scrierilor suprarealiste ale lui Dolfi Trost, unul dintre membrii Grupului suprarealist romn – foarte activ ntre anii 1940 i 1947 la Bucureti –, coautor, alturi de Gherasim Luca, al celebrului manifest Dialectique de la dialectique. E o contribuie valoroas, revelatoare pentru suprarealismul frenetic al bucuretenilor angajai ntr-un ndrzne dialog cu micarea european de avangard. Documente inedite rotunjesc profilul unui spirit nonconformist, pe care interpretul su are grij s-l situeze, atent la nuane, n contextul agitat al epocii. O recuperare, aadar, salutar care mbogete substanial imaginea acestei ultime etape a avangardei istorice romneti.“ – Ion Pop
