A Darker Shade of Magic, from #1 New York Times bestselling author V.E. Schwab Kell is one of the last Antari—magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel Londons; Red, Grey, White, and, once upon a time, Black. Kell was raised in Arnes—Red London—and officially serves the Maresh Empire as an ambassador, traveling between the frequent bloody regime changes in White London and the court of George III in the dullest of Londons, the one without any magic left to see. Unofficially, Kell is a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they'll never see. It's a defiant hobby with dangerous consequences, which Kell is now seeing firsthand. After an exchange goes awry, Kell escapes to Grey London and runs into Delilah Bard, a cut-purse with lofty aspirations. She first robs him, then saves him from a deadly enemy, and finally forces Kell to spirit her to another world for a proper adventure. Now perilous magic is afoot, and treachery lurks at every turn. To save all of the worlds, they'll first need to stay alive. "A Darker Shade of Magic has all the hallmarks of a classic work of fantasy. Schwab has given us a gem of a tale...This is a book to treasure."—Deborah Harkeness, New York Times bestselling author of the All Souls trilogy Shades of Magic series 1. A Darker Shade of Magic 2.

In the shadow of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, New Mexico’s Mora Valley harbors the ghosts of history: troubadours and soldiers, Plains Indians and settlers, families fleeing and finding home. There, more than a century ago, villagers collect scraps of paper documenting the valley’s history and their identity—military records, travelers’ diaries, newspaper articles, poetry, and more—and bind them into a leather portfolio known as “The Book of Archives.” When a bomb blast during the Mexican-American War scatters the book’s contents to the wind, the memory of the accounts lives on instead in the minds of Mora residents. Poets and storytellers pass down the valley’s traditions into the twentieth century, from one generation to the next. In this pathbreaking dual-language volume, author A. Gabriel Meléndez joins their ranks, continuing the retelling of Mora Valley’s tales for our time. A native of Mora with el don de la palabra, the divine gift of words, Meléndez mines historical sources and his own imagination to reconstruct the valley’s story, first in English and then in Spanish. He strings together humorous, tragic, and quotidian vignettes about historical events and unlikely occurrences, creating a vivid portrait of Mora, both in cultural memory and present reality. Local gossip and family legend intertwine with Spanish-language ballads and the poetry of New Mexico’s most famous dueling troubadours, Old Man Vilmas and the poet García. Drawing on New Mexican storytelling tradition, Meléndez weaves a colorful dual-language representation of a place whose irresistible characters and unforgettable events, and the inescapable truths they embody, still resonate today.

Urban planning on the five Lusophone African countries - Angola, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, and Sao Tome and Príncipe - has so far been relatively overlooked in planning literature. Bringing together a team of leading scholars, this book fills the gap by providing an in-depth analysis of key issues in the history of urban planning and discussing the key challenges confronting contemporary urban planning in these countries. The book argues that urban planning is a non-neutral and non-value free kind of public action and, therefore, ideology, planning theories, urban models and the ideological role urban planning has played are some of the key issues addressed. For that reason, the practice of Urban Planning is also seen as the outcome of a complex interrelationship between structure and agency, with the role of key planers being examined in some of the chapters. The findings and insights presented by the contributing authors confirm previous research on urban planning in the colonial and postcolonial periods in Lusophone African countries and at the same time break fresh ground and offer additional insights as new evidence has been collected from archives and in fieldwork carried out by a new generation of researchers. In addition, it outlines possible directions for future research.

Thomas Mann considerou esta monumental narrativa da história bíblica de José como a sua magnum opus. Concebeu-a em quatro partes – As Histórias de Jaacob, O Jovem José, José no Egito e José, o Provedor – como uma narrativa unificada, um «romance mitológico» da queda de José na escravidão e da sua ascensão a senhor do Egito.Baseado num profundo estudo da História, e utilizando detalhes pródigos e convincentes, Mann evoca o mundo mítico dos patriarcas e dos faraós, as antigas civilizações do Egito, da Mesopotâmia e da Palestina – com as suas divindades e rituais religiosos –, e a força universal do amor humano em toda a sua beleza, desespero, absurdo e dor. O resultado é uma brilhante amálgama de ironia, humor, emoção, perceção psicológica e grandeza épica.As Histórias de Jaacob, primeiro romance da tetralogia, foi publicado em 1933, o mesmo ano em que Mann se exilou da Alemanha devido à subida de Hitler ao poder. Nele, o autor reinterpreta as histórias de Jaacob – neto de Abrãao e pai de José – usando em cada episódio a sua prosa mais experimental, e conferindo à obra um tom sereno tingido de ironia. Numa humanizadora abordagem às figuras mais lendárias da antiguidade, Mann dota Jaacob e José de todas as características e fraquezas dos homens, para oferecer uma emocionante resposta à crueldade do ser humano.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • This instant classic explores how we can change our lives by changing our habits. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Wall Street Journal • Financial Times In The Power of Habit, award-winning business reporter Charles Duhigg takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain why habits exist and how they can be changed. Distilling vast amounts of information into engrossing narratives that take us from the boardrooms of Procter & Gamble to the sidelines of the NFL to the front lines of the civil rights movement, Duhigg presents a whole new understanding of human nature and its potential. At its core, The Power of Habit contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly, losing weight, being more productive, and achieving success is understanding how habits work. As Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives. With a new Afterword by the author “Sharp, provocative, and useful.”—Jim Collins “Few [books] become essential manuals for business and living. The Power of Habit is an exception. Charles Duhigg not only explains how habits are formed but how to kick bad ones and hang on to the good.”—Financial Times “A flat-out great read.”—David Allen, bestselling author of Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity “You’ll never look at yourself, your organization, or your world quite the same way.”—Daniel H. Pink, bestselling author of Drive and A Whole New Mind “Entertaining . . . enjoyable . . . fascinating . . . a serious look at the science of habit formation and change.”—The New York Times Book Review

Maria Lúcia, guerreira de tantos combates, é porta de entrada para outras histórias de vida aqui registradas, vítimas da violência do totalitarismo político desencadeado pela ruína da democracia. Este livro apresenta histórias de vida de cidadãos do mundo, vítimas de transgressões diversas dos direitos humanos, muitos dos quais foram violentados e exterminados na fase do golpe e da ditadura, no Brasil, nas décadas 1930-45, Era Vargas, década de 1960, novo golpe, pós-64 e Ditadura Militar, por mais de vinte anos. Atualmente, surgem novos riscos de autoritarismos na conjuntura política brasileira, a qual retrata a influência da direita radical, adentrando o governo do presidente do Brasil e de seus apoiadores, que explodem em gritos, em prol de um retorno do país ao golpe militar, combatendo um comunismo fantasma, ainda inscrito como inimigo no mundo atual. Nos tempos mais sombrios de Lula, do lado externo de sua casa, na rua Vigário Protásio, em Bambuí, um cartaz com o seu nome e uma frase de confiança em sua luta em prol dos oprimidos, confirmavam seu posicionamento político ideológico: "Lula Livre".

ESTE BOX CONTÉM OS TÍTULOS DA SÉRIE HISTÓRIAS DA GENTE BRASILEIRA COLÔNIA A história do país é comumente contada por meio de grandes fatos, feitos e nomes, vitórias e fracassos que marcaram a nação ou a sua economia. O povo, seus hábitos e sua vida cotidiana sempre foram relegados e esquecidos, sem receber a visibilidade que merecem. Suas histórias foram deixadas atrás das cortinas, mas chegou a hora de conhecê-las. Mary del Priore nos presenteia, neste livro, com as verdadeiras histórias do país, aquelas que retratam intimamente a vida da gente brasileira. Nele, você vai descobrir como as pessoas se vestiam, onde moravam, o que comiam, o que faziam para se divertir e tantos outros fatos menores, que muito dizem sobre elas e sobre nós. Afinal, é conhecendo nossas raízes, as histórias de nosso povo e os objetos que usavam que seremos capazes de compreender melhor o país em que vivemos e de construir um futuro mais promissor. IMPÉRIO Quantos heróis, líderes e grandes figuras fazem a história de um país? Cem, duzentos, ou até menos. Contada de forma tradicional, ela privilegia um seleto grupo de personagens ilustres. Mas não são eles que definem a nação da forma como a conhecemos. A história de um país é traçada por milhares de anônimos, homens e mulheres que constroem caminhos e jeitos de viver e se relacionar. A história do Brasil é escrita no dia a dia, pela totalidade das suas gentes. Hábitos, costumes, modos de vestir, de falar, moradias, divertimentos, o papel da mulher... Nada passa despercebido pelo olhar sensível e acurado de Priore. Ricamente ilustrado, o livro traz ainda reflexões sobre a formação das grandes cidades - ajudando a explicar as diferenças regionais que até hoje marcam o país, além de questionar o mito do "homem cordial" ao contar com minúcias como se deram as diversas revoltas que explodiram neste período. REPÚBLICA: MEMÓRIAS (1889-1950) No terceiro volume, a historiadora aborda a primeira etapa de nossa República por meio das memórias daqueles que viveram todas as mudanças políticas, econômicas, sociais e comportamentais pelas quais o Brasil passou durante o intenso período compreendido entre os anos de 1889 e 1950. De Deodoro da Fonseca a Eurico Gaspar Dutra, passando pela Era Vargas, o país teve 16 presidentes, mas o que guia a narrativa são as vozes, carregadas dos mais diversos sotaques, de quem viveu o dia a dia das ruas e o transformou em palavra escrita. Entre eles estão memorialistas/escritores que deixaram marcas definitivas na cultura nacional, como José Lins do Rego, Zélia Gattai e Erico Verissimo, cujas descrições nos convidam a percorrer o passado e aproximam a literatura da história – e toda história que esses autores contam é também a nossa. REPÚBLICA: TESTEMUNHOS (1951-2000) Mary del Priore encerra suas Histórias da gente brasileira abordando a segunda metade do século XX, período em que atravessamos sucessivas tensões políticas e passamos por inúmeras mudanças sociais. A premiada historiadora detalha as transformações que definiram o país em que vivemos hoje. Nas páginas do livro (re)visitamos um Brasil que viu suas cidades se verticalizarem e seguiu por uma odisseia no espaço doméstico.
