Synopsis

"Does it hurt? Only if I exist."

Every person longs for a meaningful life that has value. We shape this in our own way by attuning ourselves to the value of the things that surround us, and discovering what is essential to our being and what is not. Through the fusion of photography and philosophical poetry, mother Greetje and daughter Angela show us how we can do that.

Angela’s poems are the stuff life is made of, put under a microscope. She makes the ordinary magical. She makes you look at life sideways, upside down, inside out – dissects it cleanly with words sharp as any scalpel, makes you take a close, hard look at things you take for granted. She possesses the art of being able to condense a complicated thing into a luminous image that’s as profound as it is simple, using the simplest of words.

Greetje is a passionate art photographer with a unique and recognizable style. Her work embodies the “visual art of minimalism". She regularly alternates abstract subjects with atmospheric images of nature and intriguing photos where people are central - all this with a meticulous eye for the aesthetic experience or the clarity of the photo. Her works are gems of sophisticated beauty and emotional purity that will touch many art lovers…


Full stop

I don't know about the full stop, really,
it seems so harsh sometimes, abrupt,
a monologue of silence
I don't care for the full stop, really,
if the universe has no end,
why should a sentence have one

For millennia, trees have offered renewal and inspiration. They have provided for humanity on every level, from spiritual sanctuary to the raw material for our homes, books, and food. In this beautiful and revealing book, National Geographic combines legendary photography with cutting-edge science to illuminate exactly how trees influence the life of planet Earth—from our personal lives to the weather cycle. Beautifully illustrated essays tell the stories of the world's most remarkable trees, from Tane Mahura in New Zealand, the ancient Maori "lord of the forest," to Pando, a single aspen spreading over 100 acres: Earth's largest living thing. You'll also discover how an astronaut carried tree seeds to the moon and back; the reason "microdosing" on tree gas is a sure way to boost your immune system; and why playing in the dirt boosts serotonin, happiness hormone. For nature and science enthusiasts, as well as photography lovers, Into the Forest is a beautiful and edifying gift to give or cherish.

The defining, behind-the-scenes chronicle of one of the most extraordinary, beloved, and dominant pop cultural entities in America’s history -- Marvel Comics – and the outsized personalities who made Marvel including Martin Goodman, Stan Lee, and Jack Kirby.  “Sean Howe’s history of Marvel makes a compulsively readable, riotous and heartbreaking version of my favorite story, that of how a bunch of weirdoes changed the world…That it’s all true is just frosting on the cake.”  —Jonathan LethemFor the first time, Marvel Comics tells the stories of the men who made Marvel: Martin Goodman, the self-made publisher who forayed into comics after a get-rich-quick tip in 1939, Stan Lee, the energetic editor who would shepherd the company through thick and thin for decades and Jack Kirby, the WWII veteran who would co-create Captain America in 1940 and, twenty years later, developed with Lee the bulk of the company’s marquee characters in a three-year frenzy. Incorporating more than one hundred original interviews with those who worked behind the scenes at Marvel over a seventy-year-span, Marvel Comics packs anecdotes and analysis into a gripping narrative of how a small group of people on the cusp of failure created one of the most enduring pop cultural forces in contemporary America.
