Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. At once a pop culture icon, cult figure, and film industry outsider, master filmmaker David Lynch and his work defy easy definition. Dredged from his subconscious mind, Lynchs work is primed to act on our own subconscious, combining heightened, contradictory emotions into something familiar…but inscrutable. No less than his art, Lynchs life also evades simple categorization, encompassing pursuits as a musician, painter, photographer, carpenter, entrepreneur, and vocal proponent of Transcendental Meditation.David Lynch: The Man from Another Place, Dennis Lims remarkably smart and concise book, proposes several lenses through which to view Lynch and his work: through the age-old mysteries of the uncanny and the sublime, through the creative energies of surrealism and postmodernism, through ideas of America and theories of good and evil. Lynch himself often warns against overinterpretation. And accordingly, this is not a book that seeks to decode his art or annotate his lifeto dispel the strangeness of the Lynchianso much as one that offers complementary ways of seeing and understanding one of the most distinctive bodies of work in modern cinema. Its spirit is true to its subject, in remaining suggestive rather than definitive, in allowing what Lynch likes to call room to dream, and in honoring the allure of the unknown and the unknowable.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. I believe in the absolute necessity of a new art of colour, of drawing andof the artistic life, Vincent van Gogh wrote to his brother Theo in 1888. And if we work in that faith, it seems to me that theres a chance that our hopes wont be in vain. His prediction would come true. In his brief a…nd explosively creative lifehe committed suicide a few years later at the age of thirty-sevenVan Gogh made us see the world in a new way. His shining landscapes of Provence and somber portraits of workers shattered the relationship between light and dark, and his hallucinatory visions were so bright they nearly blinded the world.He was a great writer as well. In his six hundredplus letters to Theo he chronicled with heartbreaking urgency his mental breakdowns, acrimonious family relations, and struggles with art dealers, who largely ignored him until the last years of his life. Shading this dark story is the artists acquaintance with prostitutes and penury, stormy scenes with his friend Paul Gauguin, and dissipated Parisian nights with Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Julian Bells passion for his subject brings the painter to life. Bell writes with slashing intensity, at once scholarly and defiantly partisan. I have written this book out of my love for Vincent van Gogh, the uniquely exciting painter, and Vincent van Gogh, the letter writer of heart-piercing eloquence, he declares. For Bell, Van Gogh was an artistic genius and more: he was a wonder of the world. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A moving and compulsively readable novel about two very different women and the unlikely bond they forge in the wreckage of one man's betrayal.Maggie feels behind for thirty-five--still unsure about her career path, still living with roommates and struggling through a never-ending PhD--but a…t least she's certain about her relationship with her boyfriend, Karl. That is until she hears the voicemail on Karl's phone from some woman named Eve, who's using words Maggie can't process like baby, love, and tonight. In an instant, Maggie's trust in Karl unravels, but she doesn't know the whole truth--and only one person can help her find it: Eve.Eve didn't flee New York and the stress of running her handcrafted furniture business just to be dragged into someone else's drama. She likes the quiet rhythm of her Northern Ontario lake life: her dog, her cozy home, her dependable routines--and Karl, at least on the weekends when he's not working in Toronto. So when a stranger presses for a meeting, Eve is wary. She doesn't like her earnestness, her probing questions, her expectation of solidarity. And she certainly doesn't like the news Maggie delivers: Karl is her boyfriend too.Maggie and Eve's tense encounter upends both of their lives. They expect to never see each other again, but instead they're thrown back together--forced to face their resentments and insecurities head-on, pushed into vulnerability with the one person whose very existence caused their heartbreak.What We Found Instead is a captivating and insightful look at complex relationships and a love letter to female friendship, asking us to consider questions about love, loyalty, and what we owe to ourselves and to others.(c) 2026 by Heidi Reimer, all rights reserved.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A staggering debut novel of murder, loyalty, love, and survival at all costs, set in the teeming underbelly of Calcutta's most infamous neighbourhood.In Calcutta's notorious red-light district, Lalee aspires to a better life. Her unfailingly loyal client Tilu Shau has dreams too. A heady rom…antic and marginal novelist, Tilu is in love with the indifferent Lalee and wants to liberate her from her street life with marriage. But when a fellow sex worker and young mother is brutally murdered, the solicitous madam of the Blue Lotus invites Lalee to take the woman's place "upstairs" as a high-end escort. The offer comes with the promise of a more lucrative life but quickly spirals into violence, corruption, and unfathomable secrets that threaten to upset the fragile stability of Lalee's very existence. As Tilu is drawn deeper into his rescue mission, he and Lalee embark on life-altering journeys to escape a savage fate.As much a page-turner as it is poignant, Small Deaths is a brilliantly drawn modern noir that exposes the reality of society's preyed-upon outcasts, their fierce resilience, and the dangerous impediments that stand in the way of their dignity, love, and survival.'Rijula Das has evaded the prevalent tropes of writing. It is very difficult to pin down the genre she is writing in is it a love story, for instance; is it a murder mystery; is it a novel about social justice? The book gives light to the popular and wrong notion that literature needs to necessarily be heavy. It manages to achieve everything that good literature does while at the same time being entertaining. It is full of beautiful humorous touches and outstanding at zooming in to details.'

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In this frank and witty memoir, Ken Ilgunas lays bare the existential terror of graduating from the University of Buffalo with $32,000 of student debt. Ilgunas set himself an ambitious mission: get out of debt as quickly as possible. Inspired by the frugality and philosophy of Henry David Th…oreau, Ilgunas undertook a three-year transcontinental journey, working in Alaska as a tour guide, garbage picker, and night cook to pay off his student loans before hitchhiking home to New York.Debt-free, Ilgunas then enrolled in a masters program at Duke University, determined not to borrow against his future again. He used the last of his savings to buy himself a used Econoline van and outfitted it as his new dorm. The van, stationed in a campus parking lot, would be more than an adventureit would be his very own Walden on Wheels.Freezing winters, near-discovery by campus police, and the constant challenge of living in a confined space would test Ilgunass limits and resolve in the two years that followed. What had begun as a simple mission would become an enlightening and life-changing social experiment.Walden on Wheels offers a spirited and pointed perspective on the dilemma faced by those who seek an education but who also want to, as Thoreau wrote, live deep and suck out all the marrow of life.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Shortlisted for the 2015 Brooklyn Eagles Literary PrizeThe Lost Tribe of Coney Island is an Amazon Best Book of the MonthThe Lost Tribe of Coney Island is a New York Post must read!Coney Island, summer 1905: a new attraction opened at Luna Park. Within weeks it would be the talk of the natio…n.For the first time, The Lost Tribe of Coney Island unearths the incredible true story of the Igorrotes, a group of headhunting, dog eating tribespeople brought to America from the Philippines by the opportunistic showman Truman K. Hunt. At Luna Park, the g-string-clad Filipinos performed native dances and rituals before a wide-eyed public in a mocked-up tribal village. Millions of Americans flocked to see the tribespeople slaughter live dogs for their daily canine feasts and to hear thrilling tales of headhunting. The Igorrotes became a national sensationthey were written up in newspaper headlines, portrayed in cartoons, and even featured in advertising jingles, all fueled by Trumans brilliant publicity stunts.By the end of the summer season, the Igorrote show had made Truman a rich man.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Norman Vincent Peales The Power of Positive Thinking, a classic bestseller, has inspired an optimistic perspective for millions of Americans. Now, in an inspirational and entertaining rebuttal, the legendary basketball coach Bob Knight explains why negative thinking will actually produce mor…e positive results, in sports and in daily life. Coach Knight, the second-winningest coach in NCAA history with 902 victories, explains that victory is often attained by the team that makes the fewest mistakes. His coaching philosophy was to instill discipline by preparing to win rather than hoping to win. That meant understanding the downside and drilling his teams to prevent the things that could go wrong. And when his teams did win, he made sure they didnt dwell on their success, but rather looked immediately to the challenges of the next game. He applies this lesson to business strategy as well.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A Wall Street Journal bestseller.The powerful bond between humans and dogs is one thats uniquely cherished. Loyal, obedient, and affectionate, they are truly mans best friend. But do dogs love us the way we love them? Emory University neuroscientist Gregory Berns had spent decades using MRI…imaging technology to study how the human brain works, but a different question still nagged at him: What is my dog thinking?After his family adopted Callie, a shy, skinny terrier mix, Berns decided that there was only one way to answer that questionuse an MRI machine to scan the dogs brain. His colleagues dismissed the idea. Everyone knew that dogs needed to be restrained or sedated for MRI scans. But if the military could train dogs to operate calmly in some of the most challenging environments, surely there must be a way to train dogs to sit in an MRI scanner.With this radical conviction, Berns and his dog would embark on a remarkable journey and be the first to glimpse the inner workings of the canine brain. Painstakingly, the two worked together to overcome the many technical, legal, and behavioral hurdles. Bernss research offers surprising results on how dogs empathize with human emotions, how they love us, and why dogs and humans share one of the most remarkable friendships in the animal kingdom.How Dogs Love Us answers the age-old question of dog lovers everywhere and offers profound new evidence that dogs should be treated as we would treat our best human friends: with love, respect, and appreciation for their social and emotional intelligence.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Activist. Journalist. Survivor. One man's journey from prejudice to Pride. Paul Burston wasn't always the iconic voice of LGBTQ+ London that he is today. Paul came out in the mid-1980s, when 'gay' still felt like a dirty word, especially in the small Welsh town where he grew up. He moved to…London hoping for a happier life, only to watch in horror as his new-found community was decimated by AIDS. But even in the depths of his grief, Paul vowed never to stop fighting back on behalf of his young friends whose lives were cut tragically short. It's a promise he's kept to this day. As an activist he stormed the House of Commons during the debate over the age of consent. As a journalist he spoke up for the rights of the community at a time of tabloid homophobia and legal inequality. As a novelist he founded the groundbreaking Polari Prize. But his lifestyle hid a dark secret, and Paul's demons--shame, trauma, grief--stalked him on every corner. In an attempt to silence them, he began to self-medicate. From almost drowning at eighteen to a near-fatal overdose at thirty-eight, this is Paul's story of what happened in the twenty years between, and how he carved out a life that his teenage self could scarcely have imagined. Emotional but often witty, We Can Be Heroes is an illuminating memoir of the eighties, nineties and noughties from a gay man who only just survived them.
