A dazzling follow-up to Life As Told by a Sapiens to a Neanderthal.
â€We would love to discover that each species has a biological
clock in its cells, because, if that clock existed and if we were
able to find it, perhaps we could stop it and thus become
eternal,’ Arsuaga tells Millás in this book, in which science is
intertwined with literature. The paleontologist reveals essential
aspects of our existence to the writer, who discovers that old age
is a country in which he still feels like a foreigner. After the
extraordinary international reception of Life as Told by a Sapiens
to a Neanderthal, the most brilliant double act in Spanish
literature once again dazzle the reader by addressing topics such
as death and eternity, longevity, disease, ageing, natural
selection, programmed death, and survival. Here you will find
humour, biology, nature, life, a lot of life … and two
fascinating characters, the Sapiens and the Neanderthal, who
surprise us on every page with their sharp reflections on how
evolution has treated us as a species. And also as individuals.
Argues that queer picture books with main characters of color can
disrupt structures of power in both literature and real life
Coloring into Existence investigates the role of authors,
illustrators, and independent publishers in producing alternative
narratives that disrupt colonial, heteropatriarchal notions of
childhood. These texts or characters unsettle the category of the
child, and thus pave the way for broader understandings of
childhood. Often unapologetically politically motivated, queer and
trans of color picture books can serve as the basis for fantasizing
about disruptions to structures of power, both within and outside
literary worlds. Fusing literary criticism and close readings with
historical analysis and interviews, Isabel Millán documents the
emergence of a North American queer of color children’s literary
archive. In doing so, she considers the sociopolitical
circumstances out of which queer of color children’s literature
emerged; how a queer and trans of color aesthetic translates to
picture books; and how the acts of imagination and worldmaking
inspired by picture books produce a realm of freedom, healing, and
transformation for queer and trans of color children and adults.
Coloring into Existence explores the curious ways that queer and
trans of color publications “color outside the
lines”—refusing to conform to industry standards, intermixing
fiction with nonfiction, and mobilizing alternative modes of
production and distribution to create new worlds.

This poetic tribute to fathers and mothers follows the journey of
one family through the ups and downs of life over many years. A
pleasantly colorful celebration of family love. Parents love us,
protect us, teach us, help us, and offer a secure, comfortable
shelter for us to feel protected. Their love is beyond measure,
they are willing to do anything to make us happy. But us children
also feel the same way. We can surely perceive when our father
feels blue or sense the fatigue our mother tries to hide. If only
we could make your worries vanish for good... We would do anything
for you. We would eat all the vegetables, without grumbling. We
would face up to all our fears. We would magically solve all of
your problems. Time may pass, but you are always there to catch us
when we fall, and we will make sure to be there to hold you when
you are down.
Greek-Turkish relations, despite some detente periods in their
shared history, have been generally characterized by hostility and
antagonism. But a significant breakthrough in Greek-Turkish
relations was achieved in 1999, although certain signs of
rapprochement were already present in the pre-1999 period. This
date initiated a new era between the two countries thanks to a
series of important events, such as the Helsinki summit, the
earthquakes that occurred in 1999 in Turkey and in Greece, and the
common initiatives of the Greek and Turkish Ministers of Foreign
Affairs. Since then, bilateral relations have changed direction
toward the positive. In order to better understand contemporary
Greek-Turkish relations, this book covers a number of different
aspects including the current state of minorities, the development
of the contemporary Turkish national discourse, the narratives of
friendship between the two nations, the influence of electronic
media for the reconciliation process, and the role of civil actors
for changing the perception of the "other." In a period where
Greece is struggling to overcome its chronic financial problems and
Turkey is being shaped by major political events, the relations
between the two countries become highly important, especially in
addition to their geographical position near a destabilized
geopolitical region. This book is addressed to anyone who is
interested in understanding the relations between Greece and Turkey
today and in forecasting their future relations-and, by
consequence, the future of the eastern Mediterranean area.
