Synopsis

In "Byron," John Nichol presents a compelling examination of the life and works of the enigmatic Romantic poet Lord Byron. The book meticulously explores Byron's complex character, delving into his tumultuous relationships, public persona, and profound influences on the literary landscape of the early 19th century. Nichol's style combines biographical narrative with critical analysis, engaging readers with rich descriptions and insightful commentary that contextualizes Byron within the broader currents of Romanticism, thereby illuminating the psychological and social underpinnings of his poetry. Nichol, an accomplished biographer and scholar renowned for his deep understanding of Romantic literature, draws on extensive research and critical scholarship to portray Byron's influence on literary circles and beyond. His keen interest in Byron's multifaceted identity—marked by both brilliance and controversy—reflects Nichol's own fascination with the interplay of art, politics, and personal experience. This background informs his nuanced portrayal of Byron as not just a poet, but a cultural icon grappling with the era's moral complexities. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of poetry, personality, and history. Nichol's insightful analysis and engaging prose invite readers to experience the brilliance and turbulence of Byron's world. Whether you are a student of Romantic literature, a poetry enthusiast, or simply curious about one of history's most scandalous figures, "Byron" offers a profound exploration that will resonate long after the final page.

    Did you grow up with a parent who has borderline personality disorder (BPD), or you suspect they did? Was your parent's behavior unpredictable or scary? Did it seem like they were angry one minute and happy the next? Were your basic needs ignored? If so, it wasn't your fault. Children raised by a parent with BPD are subjected to a number of unhealthy and damaging behaviors—from uncontrolled anger and abuse, to gaslighting, blame-shifting, lying, and more. As a result of these experiences, you may have developed feelings of guilt, insecurity, and depression that have lingered throughout your adult life. 
     
     
     
    This compassionate guide offers a trauma-informed approach to help you recover from your toxic childhood and discover the person you were truly meant to be. You'll learn how to identify emotional and developmental wounds, and discover why interactions with your parents were so harmful to your sense of self. Then, you'll learn to create strong interpersonal boundaries and overcome feelings of guilt, anger, and low self-worth. Finally, through the act of emotional reprocessing, you'll reclaim those aspects of yourself that were lost or distorted by your trauma, so you can restart healthy growth processes and become the person you were meant to be. If you're carrying the hidden wounds of a toxic childhood, you're not alone—and you can heal.

    A playful, analytical, informed, and poetic exploration of the delight and transformative power of real-life encounters. 
     
     
     
    The light touch of a hairdresser's hands on one's scalp, the euphoric energy of a nightclub, huddling with strangers under a shelter in the rain, a spontaneous snowball fight in the street, a daily interaction with a homeless man—such mundane connections, when we closely inhabit the same space, and touch or are touched by others, were nearly lost to "social distancing." Will we ever again shake hands without a thought? 
     
     
     
    In this deeply rewarding book, Andy Field brings together history, science, psychology, queer theory, and pop culture with his love of urban life and his own experiences—both as a city-dweller and as a performance artist—to forge creative connections: walking hand-in-hand with strangers, knocking on doors, staging encounters in parked cars. In considering twelve different kinds of encounters, from car rides to video calls to dog-walker chats in the park, Field argues "that in the spontaneity and joy of our meetings with each other, we might find the faint outline of a better future."

    We broke our new series on learning Japanese down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Japanese.  
    In Unit 1 you will hear Japanese decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
    Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Japanese speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Japanese. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Japanese at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Japanese, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
    In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with. 
    Topics covered in this book: 
    1. Asking about family 
    2. Asking about relationship status 
    3. Expressing frequency 
    4. Talking about spare time activities and hobbies
