Hands: An Anxious Mind Unpicked

Lauren Brown

‘Raw, intense and absorbing.’ Matt Haig
‘As tender and funny as it is painful.’ TLS
‘I didn’t give my hands much thought before they turned against me. … They have been chipping away at my life, slowly, slowly, in a way I could never have predicted.’
Lauren Brown is anxious. And when she feels worried, she picks at her skin. Secretly, quietly, but increasingly compulsively, her skin-picking begins to affect her day-to-day life until she realizes she must unravel the reasons behind it.
This sparkling memoir follows the thread of Lauren’s anxiety – tangled and frayed – back to its source. Written with rare wit and insight, it is an attempt to redirect the anxiety that’s pooled in her fingertips for as long as she can remember, released in odd bursts in caravan parks, on European holidays, at GP surgeries and on the wind-stung north-east coast. It is a moving and joyful exploration of obsession, forgiveness, stigma and healing, and a true love-song to the north.
Thoughtful, unsparing and at times darkly comic, Hands is the masterful debut of a luminous new talent.
Lauren Brown's Hands is a literary masterpiece that delves into the depths of OCD and personal anxieties. It's a top-rated autobiography that offers a unique perspective on mental health disorders and the journey towards healing.
For fans of Daisy Buchanan (The Sisterhood), Kate Fox (Where There’s Muck, There’s Bras), Baek Sehee (I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki), Paul Burston (We Can Be Heroes), and Jade Angeles Fitton (Hermit).

Citizenship in a Republic - "Man...

Theodore Roosevelt

“Citizenship in a Republic” is the title of a speech given by Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne in Paris, France, on April 23, 1910. In the speech Roosevelt discusses the attributes required of its citizens and leaders to sustain a thriving national character, not least of which are a high moral character and energetic engagement. He has harsh words for those who act purely in self-interest, who cause division, and who sit on the sidelines while others do the heavy lifting. The address is also known as “The Man in the Arena” speech owing to a notable passage that is often quoted:“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”Numerous politicians, athletes, speakers and others have turned to the passage for inspiration. Incoming freshman at the U.S. Naval Academy are required to memorize the passage. NBA champion LeBron James has the “Man in the Arena” written on his shoes.

Portal - San Francisco's Ferry...

John King

A two-time Pulitzer finalist explores the story of American urban design through San Francisco's iconic Ferry Building. 
 
 
 
Conceived in the Gilded Age, the Ferry Building opened in 1898 as San Francisco's portal to the world—the terminus of the transcontinental railway and a showcase of civic ambition. In silent films and World's Fair postcards, nothing said "San Francisco" more than its soaring clock tower. But as acclaimed architectural critic John King recounts, the rise of the automobile and double-deck freeways severed the city from its beloved structure. King's narrative spans the rise and fall and rebirth of the Ferry Building, introducing colorful figures who fought to preserve its character (and the city's soul)—from architect Arthur Page Brown and legendary columnist Herb Caen to poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Senator Dianne Feinstein. A microcosm of the changing American waterfront, the saga of the Ferry Building explores the tensions of tourism and development—and the threat that sea level rise poses to a landmark that in the twenty-first century remains as vital as ever.

We Philologists

Friedrich Nietzsche

Nietzsche argues that philology is not just an academic discipline, but a way of life that requires a deep appreciation for language and culture. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the historical context of texts, and the need to read them in their original language to fully appreciate their meaning and beauty. "We Philologists" is a passionate and insightful reflection on the value and meaning of philology, and a call to approach the study of language and literature with greater creativity and sensitivity. Read in English, unabridged.

Smothered and Covered - Waffle...

Ty Matejowsky

Waffle House has long been touted as an icon of the American South. The restaurant's consistent foregrounding as a resonant symbol of regional character proves relevant for understanding much about the people, events, and foodways. Whether approached as a comedic punchline on the Internet, television, and other popular media or elevated as a genuine touchstone of messy American modernity, Waffle House, its employees, and everyday clientele do much to transcend one-dimensional characterizations, earning distinction in ways that regularly go unsung. 
 
 
 
Smothered and Covered: Waffle House and the Southern Imaginary is the first book to socioculturally assess the chain within the field of contemporary food studies. In this groundbreaking work, Ty Matejowsky argues that Waffle House's often beleaguered public persona is informed by various complexities and contradictions. 
 
 
 
Matejowsky discusses Waffle House's roots in established southern foodways and traces the chain's development. He also considers Waffle House's place in American and southern popular culture, highlighting its myriad depictions in music, television, film, fiction, stand-up comedy, and sports. Altogether, Matejowsky deftly and persuasively demonstrates how Waffle House serves as a microcosm of today's South with all the accolades and criticisms this distinction entails.
