The Thirteenth Child is a must-read for fans of dark fairy tales, romantasy, and epic fantasy alike.

Fans of Erin A. Craig and Dana Schwartz will love this atmospheric, haunting, romantasy inspired by Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility about sisters vying to hold on to their manor, set in a Regency England with monsters prowling at its perimeters.Merrick Darling's life as the daughter of the Manor Lord of Sussex is better than most. Unlike the commoners, she is immune to the fog that encroached on England generations earlier. She will never become a phantom--one of the monstrous creatures that stalk her province’s borders; and as long as the fires burn to hold them back, her safety is assured. She wants for nothing, and yet she will never inherit her family's manor. She must marry smartly or live at her sister, Essie's, kindness. Everything is turned on its head, though, when Merrick's father dies, suddenly. Merrick must return home and what she discovers at Norland Manor is bewildering. Once strong and capable, Essie is withdrawn and frightened—and for good cause. A recent string of attacks along her province’s borders have turned their once bucolic countryside into a terrifying and unpredictable landscape. The fog is encroaching and the fires aren’t holding, which makes Merrick and Essie vulnerable in more ways than one. Failure to protect one’s province could lead to them losing everything.Merrick knows she can't reveal their current state to the rest of England, but when her sister goes missing it's clear she needs help. Only who can she trust when everyone seems to be scheming for something. And when all she holds to be true feels like its slipping right out of her grasp.

The Overworld is in trouble. On the ground, a rampaging army of armor-clad zombies is roving across the biomes. In the sky, a wicked Wither is leaving a path of destruction—and Wither roses—wherever it goes. And in Bobbie’s party, the tension is tighter than a skeleton’s bowstring . . . because, somehow, Logan just became its newest member. The same Logan who set zombies on Bobbie’s village and turned her little brother, Johnny, into one of the walking dead. Who bullied her friend Ben and wrecked his adventuring career. Who was mean to his minion, Other Ben (who prefers Benjamin, actually). But as the Wither skulls start flying, this not-so-merry band needs all the help it can get. Bobbie hasn’t forgotten her main mission: Find the zombified villagers who were once her friends and family and feed them the enchanted golden apples that will turn them back. But as long as the Wither exists, there’s danger. And if there’s danger, it’s a hero’s job to fix it. As much as Bobbie dislikes heroes, she and her friends (and also Logan) look like the closest thing the Overworld’s got.

A “vividly, chillingly current” (The Washington Post) novel by the author of The New Me, one of the boldest voices in American fiction “So searingly precise in [its] ability to capture a certain moment or experience that you have to stop every few pages to send another perfect quote to your group chat.”—The New York Times“So funny, so smart, utterly vicious—just brilliant.”—Zadie Smith“Butler has crafted a novel in which every character proves to be completely, uniquely crazy. Her perverse sense of humor should be studied and celebrated.”—David SedarisA NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY BEST BOOK OF THE YEARMargaret Anne “Moddie” Yance had just returned to her native land in the Midwestern town of X, to mingle with the friends of her youth, to get back in touch with her roots, and to recover from a stressful decade of living in the city in a small apartment with a man she now believed to be a megalomaniac or perhaps a covert narcissist.So begins Halle Butler’s sadistically precise and hilarious Banal Nightmare, which follows Moddie as she abruptly ends her long-term relationship and moves back to her hometown, throwing herself at the mercy of her old friends as they, all suddenly tipping toward middle age, go to parties, size each other up, obsess over past slights, dream of wild triumphs, and indulge in elaborate revenge fantasies. When her friend Pam invites a mysterious East Coast artist to take up a winter residency at the local university, Moddie has no choice but to confront the demons of her past and grapple with the reality of what her life has become. As the day of reckoning approaches, friends will become enemies, enemies will become mortal enemies, and old loyalties will be tested to their extreme.Banal Nightmare is filled with complicated characters who will dazzle you in their rendering just as often as they will infuriate you with their decisions. Halle Butler singularly captures the volatile, angry, aggrieved, surreal, and entirely disorienting atmosphere of the modern era.

Unfortunately, her knight in shining armor is actually Dr. Drew Marshall, her best friend's brother, and also the man she chewed out not too long ago for being a chauvinistic dirtbag.

That remains the case when he agrees to let her stay with him during renovations, under one condition: she pretends to be his girlfriend for upcoming work festivities. For the sake of her brother, Jessie is willing to make the tough situation work, and giving Drew a taste of his own medicine sounds... intriguing. But when their rivalry sparks a deeper connection, Jessie's future gets even more unclear, and with a baby on the way-she'll have to make a decision soon"--

Sebastião Salgados Fotobuch-Klassiker Arbeiter. Zur Archäologie des Industriezeitalters (Erstausgabe 1993) würdigt die traditionellen handwerklichen Arbeitsweisen, während zu Beginn des neuen Jahrtausends überall in der Welt Maschinen und Computer die Arbeit der Menschen übernehmen. Mit Bildern von beeindruckender Schönheit hat Salgado eine visuelle Elegie komponiert, mit der er jene Männer und Frauen ehrt, die sich ihren unbeugsamen Geist und ihre Würde selbst unter härtesten Arbeitsbedingungen bewahren. Mehr als bei jedem anderen lebenden Fotografen sind bei Sebastião Salgado die Bilder von den Vergessenen, den Elenden und den Ausgegrenzten der Welt eine Hommage an die conditio humana. Salgado definiert seine Arbeit als "kämpferische Fotografie", die dem "besseren Verständnis des Menschseins" gewidmet ist. Über Jahrzehnte hinweg hat er in seinen Fotografien den Armen und Entrechteten etwas von der Menschenwürde zurückgegeben, die sie zu verlieren drohten - von den Hungernden in der Sahelzone bis zu den indigenen Völkern Südamerikas. Mit dem Band Arbeiter legt Salgado ein globales Bildepos vor, das über das bloße Abbilden hinausgeht und zu einer Hymne auf den Widerstandsgeist arbeitender Männer und Frauen wird. 350 Duoton-Fotografien eröffnen eine archäologische Perspektive auf diejenigen Tätigkeiten, die von der Steinzeit über die industrielle Revolution bis in unsere Gegenwart als Inbegriff harter Arbeit gelten. Mit Bildern aus dem Inferno einer indonesischen Schwefelmine, von der Dramatik des traditionellen sizilianischen Thunfischfangs und der schwindelerregenden Ausdauer brasilianischer Goldgräber legt Salgado Schichten visueller Informationen frei, um die unermüdliche menschliche Arbeit als Kern der modernen Zivilisation zu enthüllen. Arbeiter präsentiert sein Thema auf mehreren sich gegenseitig durchdringenden Ebenen: Salgados einleitender Text, entstanden in Zusammenarbeit mit dem brasilianischen Schriftsteller Eric Nepomuceno, erläutert seine leidenschaftliche fotografische Ikonografie. Ausführliche Bildunterschriften, die ebenfalls von Salgado stammen, liefern den historischen und faktischen Hintergrund. Das Buch ist eine von Offenheit und Respekt getragene Hommage an diejenigen Menschen, die mit ihren eigenen Händen, mit der Kraft ihres eigenen Körpers arbeiten.

Ausgehend von der theoretischen Grundannahme, dass Sprachtherapie als Bestandteil von Bildung anzusehen ist, werden Interaktionen zwischen Sprachtherapeut*innen und Kindern im vorschulischen Bereich über einen ethnographischen Zugang untersucht. Die zentrale Frage der Arbeit lautet, inwieweit Kindern in diesem frühkindlichen Bildungskontext Teilhabe ermöglicht wird. Die Autorin kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass die Praktiken der Sprachtherapie von einer starken Machtasymmetrie gekennzeichnet sind, die die Sprachprofessionellen in Form von fortlaufenden Evaluationen und dem Einfordern von formal festgelegten monolingualen Kurzantworten aufrechterhalten. Dadurch kommt es zu Beschränkungen von mehrsprachig-kommunikativer Teilhabe und weiterer Beteiligungsmöglichkeiten der als ¿sprachbeeinträchtigt¿ adressierten Kinder.

Nel 2013 il sito UNESCO materano de "i Sassi e il parco delle Chiese rupestri" si è dotato del suo primo Piano di Gestione, a vent'anni dall'iscrizione nella Lista del Patrimonio Mondiale. Il Piano di Gestione si è andato definendo lungo un percorso articolato e partecipato, e la sua struttura è il risultato di sintesi degli apporti di tutte le fasi del percorso. Il processo partecipato è stato caratterizzato dall'idea che ognuno è un 'portatore di saperi' che contribuisce all'interno di una comunità che si definisce come 'comunità di saperi'. Il progetto dell'Osservatorio Sassi, che è lo strumento per l'attuazione del Piano, nella proposta dell'autrice declina e rilancia la visione, gli elementi e gli strumenti che hanno caratterizzato il processo di costruzione del Piano di Gestione. Così come l'intero percorso di progettazione del Piano di Gestione del sito UNESCO ha ruotato intorno all'idea di Piano come processo di processi, e ogni attività è stata anche la sperimentazione del metodo, allo stesso modo per la realizzazione dell'Osservatorio si utilizzano uguali principio e approccio. La proposta progettuale per l'avvio dell'Osservatorio Sassi è tra le azioni messe in campo dalla Cattedra UNESCO in Mediterranean Cultural Landscapes and Communities of Knowledge, istituita presso l'Università deli Studi della Basilicata.
