    Try This At Home: Adventures in songwriting (eBook, ePUB)
    *THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*The brand new memoir from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Road Beneath My Feet. Taking 36 songs from his back catalogue, folk-punk icon Frank Turner explores his songwriting process. Find out the stories behind the songs forged in the hedonistic years of the mid-2000s North London scene, the ones perfected in Nashville studios, and everything in between. Some of these songs arrive fully-formed, as if they've always been there, some take graft and endless reworking to find 'the one'. In exploring them all, Turner reflects with eloquence, insight and self-deprecating wit on exactly what it is to be a songwriter. From love songs and break-up songs to political calls-to-arms; songs composed alone in a hotel room or in soundcheck with the Sleeping Souls, this brilliantly written memoir - featuring exclusive photos of handwritten lyrics and more - is a must-have book for FT fans and anyone curious about how to write music.

    Black Swans: Stories
    "Babitz's talent for the brilliant line, honed to a point, never interferes with her feel for languid pleasures." -The New York Times Book Review A new reissue of Babitz's collection of nine stories that look back on the 1980s and early 1990s-decades of dreams, drink, and glimpses of a changing world. Black Swans further celebrates the phenomenon of Eve Babitz, cementing her reputation as the voice of a generation. With an introduction by Stephanie Danler, bestselling author of Sweetbitter. "On the page, Babitz is pure pleasure-a perpetual-motion machine of no-stakes elation and champagne fizz." -The New Yorker "[A] true original." -The Boston Globe "She's a natural. Or gives every appearance of being one, her writing elevated yet slangy, bright, bouncy, cheerfully hedonistic-L.A. in it purest, most idealized form." -Vanity Fair "Babitz's writing is also like the jacaranda tree in glorious bloom-bewitching an entire city, but all too brief." -Los Angeles Review of Books

Written by Joseph Lidster and directed by Jason Haigh-Ellery. Language: English. Narrator: Sylvester McCoy, Sophie Aldred, Tony Blackburn.

    You Are Them , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 129min
    What follows if we reject belief in any kind of non-physical soul and instead fully embrace what we know about the world? The main implication, this book argues, is a naturalization of personal identity and ethics. A radically different way of thinking about ourself.“A precondition of rational behavior is a basic understanding of the nature of oneself and the world. Any fusion of ethical and decision-theoretic rationality into a seamless package runs counter to some of our deepest intuitions. But You Are Them makes a powerful case. Magnus Vinding's best book to date. Highly recommended.” (David Pearce, co-founder of the Neuroethics Foundation, co-founder of World Transhumanist Association / Humanity, and author of The Hedonistic Imperative and The Anti-Speciesist Revolution.) ungekürzt.
