  From the author of the acclaimed novel A Pigeon and a Boy comes a charming tale of family ties, over-the-top housekeeping, and the sport of storytelling in Nahalal, the village of Meir Shalev's birth. Here we meet Shalev's amazing Grandma Tonia, who arrived in Palestine by boat from Russia in 1923 and lived in a constant state of battle with what she viewed as the family's biggest enemy in their new land: dirt. 
   
   
    
  Hilarious and touching, Grandma Tonia and her regulations come richly to life in a narrative that circles around the arrival into the family's dusty agricultural midst of the big, shiny American sweeper sent as a gift by Great-uncle Yeshayahu. America, to little Meir and to his forebears, was a land of hedonism and enchanting progress. The sweeper, a stealth weapon from Grandpa Aharon's American brother meant to beguile the hardworking socialist household with a bit of American ease, was symbolic of the conflicts and visions of the family in every respect. 
   
   
    
  The fate of Tonia's "svieeperrr"—hidden away for decades in a spotless closed-off bathroom after its initial use—is a family mystery that Shalev determines to solve. The result is pure delight, as Shalev brings to life the obsessive but loving Tonia, the pioneers who gave his childhood its spirit of wonder, and the grit and humor of people building ever-new lives.

  The name Deleuze is associated with strange concepts (desiring machines, ritornello, war machine or lines of flight). However, these impressive notions can be explained simply, once we have the intuition that organizes his work. This work gives us access to an understanding of the thread that ties Deleuze's thought together, particularly through literary characters such as Bartleby, Lancelot and the Princess of Cleves. Deleuze thus appears as non-dogmatic, himself open to variation and to the invention of a multiplicity of possible meanings of life.

  Mithridates VI Eupator - A Life...

  Have you ever heard of Mithridates VI Eupator? Don’t feel bad if you haven’t—the name doesn’t exactly roll right off your tongue. Nevertheless, Mithridates was indeed one of the mightiest leaders of the ancient world. This was a man who made himself immune to poison by consuming deadly toxins daily, earning him the nickname “the Poison King.” He spoke over twenty languages fluently and ruled an empire that stretched from the Black Sea coast of Anatolia to the distant shores of Crimea. Most remarkably of all, he became the Roman Republic’s most dangerous enemy, fighting three devastating wars that lasted over two decades and forced Rome to deploy some of its greatest generals—Sulla, Lucullus, and Pompey—just to stop him. 
  In many ways, Mithridates fancied himself a successor to Alexander the Great, the Macedonian conqueror who had spread Greek culture far and wide. He sought to follow in his idol’s footsteps, but the rise of the Roman Republic on his western flank prevented him from doing so. It was a tough and challenging life for Mithridates VI Eupator, one marked by betrayal, warfare, and the constant threat of assassination. Here in this book, we take an in-depth look at his life from beginning to end.
