Whit Stillman helms this offbeat romantic-musical-comedy following
a group of social misfits as they negotiate the minefield of
college life. Greta Gerwig stars as Violet, the emotionally fragile
yet overbearing leader of a pretentious group of girls who imagine
themselves superior to everyone else when in fact they are for the
most part ignored by their fellow students. Everyday concerns such
as dating disappointments, essay grades and social mores give way
to the more perilous pitfalls of female friendship after the girls
take it upon themselves to befriend new student Lily (Analeigh
Tipton).
The highly anticipated second volume to the widely acclaimed and
celebrated self-portrait series, Somnyama Ngonyama, Hail the Dark
Lioness
In Somnyama Ngonyama, Hail the Dark Lioness, Volume II, Zanele Muholi
explores and expands upon new personas and poetic interpretations of
personhood, queerness, Blackness, and the possibilities of self. Since
the publication of the first volume in 2018, Muholi has continued to
photograph themself in a range of new international locations. Drawing
on material props found in each environment, Muholi boldly explores
their own image and innate possibilities as a Black individual in
today’s global society, and—most important—speaks emphatically in
response to contemporary and historical racisms. Renée Mussai, curator
and historian, brings together written contributions from more than ten
curators, poets, and authors, building a poetic and experimental
framework that extends the idea of speculative futures and the
potentiality of multivalent selves. Powerfully arresting, this
collection further amplifies Muholi’s expressive and radical manifesto.
As they state in the first volume, “My practice as a visual activist
looks at Black resistance—existence as well as insistence.”

How far would you go to save your best friend? TO BE BORN OF THE
FOREST IS A GIFT AND A CURSE. Rora is a shifter, as magical as all
those born in the wilderness - and as feared. She uses her
abilities to spy for the king, traveling under different guises and
listening for signs of trouble. When a magical illness surfaces
across the kingdom, Rora uncovers a devastating truth: Finley, the
young prince and her best friend, has caught it. His only hope is
stardust, the rarest of magical elements, found deep in the
wilderness where Rora grew up - and to which she swore never to
return. But for her only friend, Rora will face her past and brave
the dark, magical wood, journeying with her brother and the
obstinate, older prince who insists on coming. Together, they must
survive sentient forests and creatures unknown, battling an ever
changing landscape while escaping human pursuers who want them
dead. With illness gripping the kingdom and war on the horizon,
Finley's is not the only life that hangs in the balance.

The purpose of this title is to provide a basis for tutors from
which to teach undergraduate medical students. It is not intended
to be a comprehensive work on paediatric surgery or to cover all
the opinions on the subject, but rather to be a practical guide to
what the general practitioner should know about paediatric surgery.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1974 and the culmination of a life's work, The Denial of Death is Ernest Becker's brilliant and impassioned answer to the 'why' of human existence. In bold contrast to the predominant Freudian school of thought, Becker tackles the problem of the vital lie - man's refusal to acknowledge his own mortality.
The book argues that human civilisation is a defence against the knowledge that we are mortal beings. Becker states that humans live in both the physical world and a symbolic world of meaning, which is where our 'immortality project' resides. We create in order to become immortal - to become part of something we believe will last forever. In this way we hope to give our lives meaning.
In The Denial of Death, Becker sheds new light on the nature of humanity and issues a call to life and its living that still resonates decades after it was written.
