Face Forward

by Kevyn Aucoin (Author) Make-up artist Kevyn Aucoin’s faces appear in editorial features, fashion shows, music videos and advertising campaigns as well as on the covers of virtually every major magazine. In this follow up to the highly successful MAKING FACES, he once again astonishes with his incredible transformations of famous and ordinary people and demonstrates how anyone can have a variety of different ‘faces’.

Svi mi : sabrane pjesme

Sabrane pjesme velikog američkog pjesnika koji je presudno utjecao na suvremenu hrvatsku književnost. Kao malo koji pisac, Carver je obilježio posljednju dekadu u hrvatskoj književnosti. Mnogi su se hrvatski pisci s pravom, a nekad i bez njega, pozivali na ovoga poetskog majstora kao na svoj uzor. U svakom slučaju, Raymond Carver na našoj je književnoj sceni jedan od najprisutnijih likova. Svjetsku slavu stekao je kratkim pričama, ali je za cijeloga života bio i ostao izvorni, veliki američki pjesnik koji je u svojoj poeziji spojio velikog Bukowskog i velikog Hemingwaya. Profil donosi njegove sabrane pjesme u vrsnom prijevodu pjesnika Damira Šodana. Pustolovina počinje!

The Time Traveller’s Guide to Medieval England

Now in paperback, a literary time machine that takes readers into the sights, smells, and tastes of the fourteenth century—a book that is revolutionary in its concept and startling in its portrayal of humanity. The past is a foreign country. This is your guidebook. A time machine has just transported you back into the fourteenth century. What do you see? How do you dress? How do you earn a living and how much are you paid? What sort of food will you be offered by a peasant or a monk or a lord? And more important, where will you stay? The Time Traveler’s Guide to Medieval England is not your typical look at a historical period. This radical new approach shows us that the past is not just something to be studied; it is also something to be lived. Through the use of daily chronicles, letters, household accounts, and poems of the day, Mortimer transports you back in time, providing answers to questions typically ignored by traditional historians. You will learn how to greet people on the street, what to use as toilet paper, why a physician might want to taste your blood, and how to know whether you are coming down with leprosy. The result is the most astonishing social history book you’re ever likely to read: revolutionary in its concept, informative and entertaining in its detail, and startling for its portrayal of humanity in an age of violence, exuberance, and fear.

Kafka on the Shore

Kafka on the Shore is a 2002 novel by Japanese author Haruki Murakami. Its 2005 English translation was among The 10 Best Books of 2005 from The New York Times and received the World Fantasy Award for 2006. The book tells the stories of the young Kafka Tamura, a bookish 15-year-old boy who runs away from his Oedipal curse, and Satoru Nakata, an old, disabled man with the uncanny ability to talk to cats. The book incorporates themes of music as a communicative conduit, metaphysics, dreams, fate, and the subconscious. After the release of the book, Murakami allowed for questions about the novel to be sent in, and responded to many of them. The novel was generally well-received, with positive reviews from John Updike and The New York Times.

Rječnik Zena

…Uz poštivanje dvije počinjene greške – zen nije filozofija, a 21.stoljeće treba biti shvaćeno samo kao još jedan pokušaj čovjeka da umom, humanističkom etikom i drugačijom sviješću izbjegne strahote počinjene još u vrijeme kada su rani zen učitelji započinjali svoj uzaludan posao. Stoga i Rječnik žena, premda u osnovama potječe još s prijelaza prve u drugu polovicu prošlog stoljeća, uz sve moguće dorade i izmjene, jest jedan od najaktualnijih priručnika jedne drukčije svijesti i razdoblja, koji upravo iz razloga svih mogućih optužbi i indoktrinacija, nema nikakve veze s onim što se naziva New Age. Novo razdoblje zena počelo je – odmah na početku, jer je zen pogled na život svih koji su ga učili i podučavali, zajedničko duhovno i ljudsko blago kojem ne treba dodati ni oduzeti ni jednu riječ. Vrlo precizno, riječi je dovoljno, potrebna je praksa i to praksa života…

The Mark of the Beast and Other Fantastical Tales

Rudyard Kipling was a major figure of English literature, who used the full power and intensity of his imagination and his writing ability in his excursions into fantasy. Kipling, one of England’s greatest writers, was born in Bombay. He was educated in England, but returned to India in 1882. He began writing fantasy and supernatural stories set in his native continent, such as ‘The Phantom Rickshaw’ and ‘The Strange Ride of Morrowbie Jukes’, and his most famous weird story is ‘The Mark of the Beast’ (1890), about a man cursed to transform into a were-leopard. This Masterwork, edited by Stephen Jones, Britain’s most accomplished and acclaimed anthologist, collects all Kipling’s weird fiction for the first time; the stories range from traditional ghostly tales to psychological horror.

The Facts Behind the Helsinki Roccamatios

The Facts Behind the Helsinki Roccamatios and Other Stories is a book of short stories by Canadian author Yann Martel. First published as a paperback by Knopf Canada in the spring of 1993, it received little attention outside Canada until 2004, after Martel’s award-winning Life of Pi gained worldwide popularity and people became interested in the author’s work. The book is composed of four short stories. The 2004 Canongate Books edition is updated with an author’s note in which Martel writes that he is ‘happy to offer these four stories again to the reading public, slightly revised, the youthful urge to overstate reined in, the occasional clumsiness in prose, I hope, ironed out.’ All the stories except Manners of Dying have a distinct auto-biographical feel to them, the protagonist being a young white male university student having an existential crisis. In these stories, especially the first two, references to other cultural noteworthies such as The Little Prince and Almayer’s Folly are noticeable. Most of the themes explored in these more youthful works are employed in the inner workings of the Life of Pi.

De Profundis and Other Writings

‘I have nothing to declare,’ Wilde once told an American customs official, ‘except my genius.’ A good part of that genius is evident in the essays and poems included in this volume. There is the intellectual genius of The Soul of Man under Socialism, in which he clearly foresaw the dangers of economic bureaucracy and for Wilde, socialism meant liberation and individuality, not enslavement. Then there is the emotional genius of De Profundis, the long, introspective and often hostile letter he addressed to Lord Alfred Douglas from prison. And there is the poetical genius of The Ballad of Reading Gaol, in which Wilde’s generous nature could movingly express for another’s misery the sorrow he found it hard to express for his own. This collection contains, too, many examples of that humorous and epigrammic genius which captured the London theatre and which, by suddenly casting light from an unexpected angle, widened the bounds of truth.
