Us and Them - Bengt Jangfeldt on...

Bengt Jangfeldt

From the time of Peter the Great to the reign of Vladimir Putin, the question of Russia's view of Europe and Western values has absorbed and divided the country's rulers, thinkers and people. One distinctive Russian idea, formulated almost 200 years ago, is that Russia not only differs from Western civilisation, but is morally superior to it. In the years since the collapse of the Soviet Union, this idea has come to replace communism as a state ideology. 
In this concise and illuminating account, Bengt Jangfeldt highlights the dramatic swings of the pendulum in Russian history. By outlining the main features of the dualistic nature of Russian civilisation, Jangfeldt leads the reader through the history of ideas of this vast country and explains how Russia became the bulwark of reactionary nationalism it is today.

The Glory and the Sorrow - A...

Timothy Tackett

What was it like to live through one of the most transformational periods in world history? In The Glory and the Sorrow, eminent historian Timothy Tackett answers this question through a masterful recreation of the world of Adrien Colson, a minor lawyer who lived in Paris at the end of the Old Regime and during the first eight years of the French Revolution. 
 
 
 
Based on over a thousand letters written by Colson, this book vividly narrates everyday life for an "ordinary citizen" during extraordinary times, as well as the life of a neighborhood on a small street in central Paris. It explores the real, day-to-day experience of a revolution: not only the thrill, the joy, and the enthusiasm, but also the uncertainty, the confusion, the anxiety, and the disappointments. While Colson reported on major events such as the storming of the Bastille and the King's flight to Varennes, his correspondence underscores the extent to which the great majority of Parisians in no way anticipated the Revolution; the incessant circulation and power of rumors of impending disasters in Paris, not just in the summer of 1789 but continually throughout the Revolutionary decade; and how this affected popular psychology and behavior. 
 
 
 
An evocative account of Colson's time and place, The Glory and the Sorrow is a compelling microhistory of Revolutionary France.

Verity or the Art of Lying Well

Marcus Reed

In an age obsessed with truth, this book dares to ask whether honesty has ever been what we really wanted. Verity, or the Art of Lying Well is a provocative reflection on storytelling, psychology, and the illusions we choose to believe. Through the lens of one of the most controversial thrillers of the decade, it examines why deception feels so irresistible — in fiction, in love, and in life. Blending philosophy and narrative insight, it reveals how every story is a negotiation between belief and desire, and how the best lies often tell the deepest truths. A book for readers who love thrillers but crave something more: a mirror held up to their own need to be deceived.
