Świat podmiotu jest nocą Wyobraża go toń tenebralnego nieba, które usypiając rozum i instaurując oniryczne, nieustannie płodzi to, co potworne. Usunięta ze świata pracy i rutynowego istnienia, potworność wciąż eksploduje jako atawizm jedności z kosmiczną pletorą. Przeciwstawia się normie jak świat intymny światu rzeczywistemu (izolowanych bytów partykularnych), a zatrata umiarowi. Afirmowana przez Sadycznych libertynów, jest regionem mrocznego Erosa, na styku śmierci i okrucieństwa. Wybłysk erotycznej energii znosi egzystencję fetyszyzującą przyszłość i ascezę; wydobywa się ona ze swego zamknięcia i dzięki anamnezie pierwotnej jedności wkracza w region komunikacji. Komunikacja jest zatratą, która panuje, gdy znika troska o jutro. Wszystko to uzasadnia w dziele Sadea kult ofiarnictwa. Reaktywowana u niego wspólnota ofiarnika i ofiary, powrót do rytuału, decydują o szokującej w profanicznym świecie transgresji norm. Ofiarowanie aktualizuje eksternalizowane przez użyteczność sacrum. W ten sposób zrzucone zostaje jarzmo reifikacji: z rzeczy, ku której upadł, opuszczając bezmiar, człowiek na powrót staje się beneficjentem intimit. Intymnie z nocą, mrocznym słońcem, zatratą, peregrynuje ku inności, która jest niczym.

The multi-million bestselling series continues with The Shadow Sister.
A memoir about thinking and reading, eating and denying your body food, about the relationships that form us and the long tentacles of childhood.
In the household of Sarah Moss's childhood she learnt that the female body and mind were battlegrounds. 1970s austerity and second-wave feminism came together: she must keep herself slim but never be vain, she must be intelligent but never angry, she must be able to cook and sew and make do and mend, but know those skills were frivolous. Clever girls should be ambitious but women must restrain themselves. Women had to stay small.
Years later, her self-control had become dangerous, and Sarah found herself in A&E. The return of her teenage anorexia had become a medical emergency, forcing her to reckon with all that she had denied her hard-working body and furiously turning mind.
My Good Bright Wolf navigates contested memories of girlhood, the chorus of relentless and controlling voices that dogged Sarah’s every thought, and the writing and books in which she could run free. Beautiful, audacious, moving and very funny, this memoir is a remarkable exercise in the way a brain turns on itself, and then finds a way out.
From Sarah Moss, the Sunday Times bestselling author of Summerwater, My Good Bright Wolf is a memoir like no other.

ormer CNN/CNN International Anchor and Business Correspondent Alison Kosik —recognised around the globe as the face of Wall Street for the network — found herself trapped in a failing marriage. The savvy mother of two, was terrified to leave her husband. Why? She didn’t have the confidence to take on big financial decisions on her own. Despite spending her working hours explaining financial and business concepts, she had allowed her husband to take charge of all their big money decisions — from buying a house and how to finance it to their investments and retirement savings — and had no clue how to do any of it on her own.
It sounds crazy, doesn’t it?
But Alison is far from atypical.
It turns out plenty of educated and high-achieving women — married or single — avoid getting involved with managing their financial lives. In What’s Up With Women and Money? Alison gives a step-by-step action plan on a variety of money topics. Alison also interviews dozens of women who share their cautionary tales of why avoiding money decisions can lead to bad outcomes.
Alison also talks one on one with inspirational women like Sheryl Sandberg, Rebecca Minkoff, Jessica Alba, Barbara Corcoran, and Deepica Mutyala — women who inspire other women and help them gain confidence — to take control of their financial lives.
Alison simplifies complicated financial topics of investing, car buying and paying down debt, breaking them down into easy to follow steps, with practical tidbits that make each page accessible, digestible and fun.
By the end of What’s Up With Women and Money?, women will not only feel empowered and confident about their finances, but they will also feel ready to take action after being motivated without judgment.

A dazzling tale of madness, confinement and the need for escape, Suder introduced Percival Everett to the world as a writer already fully capable of conjuring whole lives and worlds on the page.
David Larson can never go home.
His parents are dead. His sister and her hippie husband, staunchly anti-war, won't even have the newly returned Vietnam veteran in the house. So Larson takes his chances on the road, travelling west from Georgia until he breaks down in the nowhere town of Slut’s Hole, Wyoming.
There he finds lodging with Chloë Sixbury, a one-legged sexagenarian widow, and her disabled son. Their ersatz family is complete when Larson takes in Butch, a Vietnamese girl abandoned at the highway rest stop where he works, but at the edge of this tableau lingers the unmistakable spectre of violence.
Blending the grotesquerie of the Southern Gothic with the Western's codes of frontier justice, in Walk Me to the Distance Percival Everett renders a vivid and haunting landscape of the American badlands, where cruelty is the lingua franca.
