The Veil of Shadows

Pasquale De Marco

Beschreibung

In the tapestry of life, where joy and sorrow intertwine, there exists a realm of shadows, a hidden world of mental anguish and despair. It is here that we embark on a poignant journey with a young woman whose life is forever altered by the devastating effects of schizophrenia.

Once a vibrant and radiant spirit, her mother's mind becomes ensnared by the insidious tendrils of this cruel illness. As a silent storm rages within her, the woman's laughter fades, her words shatter into fragments, and her eyes lose their spark, leaving behind a hollow shell of her former self.

The narrator, a young girl witnessing the steady erosion of her mother's mind, is left grappling with a profound sense of loss and isolation. The mother-daughter bond, once unbreakable, now hangs by a thread, fraying with each passing day.

Driven by unwavering love and a desperate search for answers, the narrator embarks on a quest to understand the complexities of schizophrenia. She delves into the labyrinth of medical treatments, navigating the healthcare system's challenges while seeking solace and support from others who have been touched by this devastating illness.

Through her journey, she uncovers the hidden depths of resilience and strength that lie within her own heart. She learns to accept the reality of her mother's condition, finding moments of beauty and connection amidst the darkness.

This is a story of love, loss, and the unyielding power of the human spirit. It is a testament to the enduring strength of familial bonds, even in the face of unimaginable adversity. With raw honesty and profound insight, this book sheds light on the hidden world of mental illness, offering hope and inspiration to those who have been touched by its devastating effects.

Abolish Rent - How Tenants Can...

Leonardo Vilchis, Tracy Rosenthal

Abolish Rent takes aim at one of the foremost engines of inequality and injustice. 
 
Rent drives millions into debt, despair, and onto the streets. The social cost of rent is too damn high. Written for anyone fed up with the permanent housing crisis, complicit politicians, and real estate greed, Abolish Rent dissects our housing system from the perspective of those it immiserates. Through unsparing analysis and striking stories of resistance, it shows us how tenants can, through organizing and collective action, harness our power and win the housing we deserve.From two cofounders of the largest tenants union in the country, this deeply reported account of the resurgent tenant movement centers poor and working-class people who are fighting back, staying put, and remaking the city in the process. Authors Tracy Rosenthal and Leonardo Vilchis take us to trilingual strategy meetings, raucous marches against gentrification, and daring eviction defenses where immigrants put their lives on the line. These are the seeds of the revolutionary movement we need to make our housing, our cities, and the world our home.

Prophesy Deliverance! - An...

Cornel West, Johnathan Lee Walton

In this, his premiere work, Cornel West challenges African Americans to consider the incorporation of Marxism into their theological perspectives, thereby adopting the mindset that it is class more so than race that renders one powerless in America. His work reflects political and cultural perspectives borne out of his own formative life experiences. Decades later, his arguments continue to capture the theological imagination of many and influence the critical engagement of generations of scholars. 
 
 
 
In this fortieth anniversary edition, West invites six prominent scholars—whose respective work are grounded in various aspects of black political, cultural, and theological thought—into dialogue with this work, each writing one chapter plus a foreword by Jonathan Lee Walton. Continuing and expanding on the revolutionary discourses that West introduced in the first published work, each new essay provides nuanced lens for thinking about movements of liberation in today's African American communities.

Keir Starmer: The Biography

Tom Baldwin

THE BESTSELLING BIOGRAPHY OF THE BRITISH PRIME MINISTER 
A Times Book of the Year; A Telegraph Book of the Year; A Daily Mail Book of the Year; A Waterstones Book of the Year 
‘Required reading for anyone who has an interest in who governs Britain' ALASTAIR CAMPBELL 
'This will be the most important political book of the year’ MATTHEW D’ANCONA, EVENING STANDARD 
This authoritative – but not authorised – biography by Tom Baldwin provides answers by drawing deeply on many hours of interviews with Prime Minister himself, as well as unprecedented access to members of his family, his oldest friends and closest colleagues. 
Together, they tell an unexpectedly intimate story filled with feelings of grief and love that has driven him on more than any rigid ideology or loyalty to a particular faction. 
The book tracks Starmer’s emergence from a troubled small town background and rebellious youth, through a storied legal career as a human rights barrister and the country’s chief prosecutor, to becoming an MP relatively late in life. 
Baldwin provides a vivid and compelling account of how this untypical politician then rose to be leader of his party in succession to Jeremy Corbyn, then transformed it with a ruthless rapidity that has enraged opponents from the left just as much as it has bewildered those on the right. 
Above all, this is a book that should be read by anyone who wants to understand how someone who has too often been underestimated or dismissed as dull, now intends to change Britain. 
'The first serious and consistently readable biography of Starmer…It is a wonder that he has said so much to Baldwin' PATRICK MAGUIRE, THE TIMES 
'This is an absolutely riveting and very timely biography' AMOL RAJAN 
‘Highly readable… Baldwin has peeled back more layers than anyone else' ROBERT SHRIMSLEY, FINANCIAL TIMES 
This Sunday Times bestselling book is a journey through the history of democracy in the 21st century. It's an autobiography that explores the ideologies and processes that have shaped European politics. 
For fans of Rory Stewart (Politics On the Edge), and Bob Woodward (The Final Days). 
HarperCollins 2024
