My breath hitched. This wasnt a series of disconnected encounters. This was a consortium. A collective."Each of us has worked with you," Julian continued, gesturing to the others. "The doctor diagnosed your condition. The librarian settled your debts. The chef found your flavor. The fireman... well, he just needed to bleed the line." He smiled, a thin, cruel thing. "But our individual... tutorials... were merely preliminary sketches. Today, we begin the final piece. The magnum opus."Chef Laurent stepped forward, his knife-like gaze stripping me bare. "Youve learned individual tastes, but you have yet to appreciate the full menu. The complexity of a dish is not in one ingredient, but in how they all come together."The firefighter grunted in agreement. "Pressure isnt just about one burst. Its about the cumulative force. The total system load."Julian walked around me, his appraising gaze like a physical touch. "We are going to create you. We are going to paint you, sculpt you, write our story on your body. You are no longer the muse. You are the medium. And you will be... cooperative."He stopped in front of me, so close I could feel the heat from his body.

From being disruptive and occasionally violent early in school, with a hearing aid Neil went to the top of his class. He was awarded a place at the prestigious Batley Boys Grammar School without having to take the 11-plus examination. He graduated from Reading University in Food Science and spent his working life as an Environmental Health Officer. Many of his legislative innovations were adopted nationally by the British Government.Of the book, Neil says, "To create authenticity in Yorkshire life my story is told in Yorkshire dialect. That some may not understand it initially troubled me but my publisher encouraged it because over time proud, broad Yorkshire has become diluted. The book brings it back to life. I have laughed recounting the amusing stories and wiped away tears remembering the sad. It has been an emotional return. The nineteen-fifties and sixties were over half a century ago but I enjoyed every minute re-living them."Now a retiree Neil travels between Spain and Belgium according to the season. He walks, cycles, swims, plays guitar and gigs in folk and rock bands. Writing is his new passion. His second book scheduled for Summer 2026 is A Life of Grime.

A América Latina é o grande tema do romance O recurso do método. Alejo Carpentier faz um painel político-cultural do continente latino-americano trazendo para o centro da narrativa um ditador chamado apenas de Primeiro-Magistrado. Situada entre 1913 e 1940, que marca a chegada do ditador ao poder da Naço e a sua subsequente morte no exilio, a narrativa faz uma verdadeira recuperaço historica da America Latina ao mostrar a violenta represso do Primeiro-Magistrado aos movimentos de oposiço e a qualquer tentativa de revoluço. O protagonista do romance e construido a partir de retalhos de ditadores reais que assombraram o continente latino-americano. Entre eles esto: Antonio Guzman Blanco (Venezuela), Porfirio Diaz (Mexico), Manuel Estrada Cabrera (Guatemala), Gerardo Machado (Cuba), Cipriano Castro (Venezuela), Anastasio Somoza Garcia (Nicaragua), Rafael Trujillo (Republica Dominicana) e Fulgencio Batista (Cuba). O titulo do livro faz referencia ao famoso livro de Rene Descartes, Discurso do Metodo. Para o autor, a "America latina e um Continente essencialmente anticartesiano no que se diz respeito ao desenvolvimento da sua historia (...) Cada capitulo e encabeçado por uma citaço de Descartes que, tomada a partir da perspectiva do meu Tirano Ilustrado, justifica os atos mais delirantes e arbitrarios (...) Recursos de um metodo que consiste em no ter nenhum"."

A Morte de Artemio Cruz (1962) narra as últimas horas de vida de um antigo revolucionário mexicano, agora um poderoso empresário, que está morrendo em seu leito, velho e doente, dentro do quarto de uma manso da Cidade do Mexico. A historia se desenrola a partir da consciencia fragmentada de Artemio, misturando suas lembranças, delirios e pensamentos imediatos. Por meio de uma estrutura narrativa inovadora que alterna entre a primeira, segunda e terceira pessoa , o romance mergulha no passado do protagonista: da juventude idealista na Revoluço Mexicana a sua ascenso politica e economica marcada por traiçes, oportunismo e perdas morais. Em meio a suas recordaçes de amores perdidos, decises crueis e pactos com o poder , Artemio Cruz torna-se uma metafora do Mexico do seculo XX: um pais marcado por lutas libertarias que se converteram em estruturas autoritarias e desiguais. O romance de Fuentes, portanto, vai alem do retrato individual e assume um papel critico e historico, denunciando as distorçes do poder e a falencia dos ideais revolucionarios.

Em maio de 1925, Virginia Woolf publicava uma de suas obras mais célebres: Mrs. Dalloway. O romance acompanha Clarissa Dalloway, eternamente lembrada por leitoras e leitores como aquela que compraria suas proprias flores e anfitri de uma grande festa.Embora Woolf costumasse se desapegar rapidamente de seus textos apos finaliza-los, Mrs. Dalloway permaneceu em sua mente por mais tempo do que o habitual. No por acaso, durante o processo de criaço do romance, ela escreveu outros sete contos que se desdobram a partir da atmosfera da festa de Clarissa.Esse gesto revela uma especie de fascinio talvez uma obsesso pela "teatralidade da festa", como aponta Ana Carolina Mesquita, tradutora da Coleço Virginia Woolf, na apresentaço de Mrs. Dalloway em Bond Street, um dos textos que retomam a essencia do romance.Com diversos temas e questes pertinentes ao momento de pos-guerra em que a escritora se inseria, a obra se tornou uma grande referencia para aqueles que so apaixonados pela literatura woolfiana. E por isso que a Nos publica essa nova traduço: Virginia Woolf nos lembra de olhar para borboletas, ainda que avies de guerra sobrevoem nossas casas. No como um escapismo, nem para ignorar ameaças bastante concretas. Mas porque a vida no e nem so avies, nem so borboletas: a vida e intercesso incessante, um movimento continuo que segue resistindo e cedendo, contra todas as nossas previses.

Ecological Farming: Common Questions and Answers offers an inviting and practical introduction to one of the most sustainable approaches to food production. Written in a clear and accessible style, this guide demystifies the principles behind ecological farming and shows how they can be applied at any scale, from small gardens to larger, more complex landscapes. The book begins by answering foundational questions about what ecological farming is and how it differs from conventional agriculture. Readers are introduced to the core idea of working with natural systems rather than against them, exploring how soil, water, plants, animals, and climate interact in ways that support long-term productivity. A dedicated section dives into soil health, a cornerstone of ecological farming. It explains common questions about composting, microbial activity, nutrient cycling, and sustainable soil management practices. The answers help readers understand why caring for soil is the starting point for healthier crops and stronger ecosystems. The guide then explores the role of biodiversity, addressing questions about companion planting, crop rotation, and integrating beneficial insects. These explanations show how diversity creates resilience, reduces pests naturally, and strengthens the overall balance of the farm environment. Another chapter focuses on water management, clarifying techniques such as rainwater harvesting, mulching, drip irrigation, and landscape design that reduce waste and improve efficiency. Readers learn how ecological farmers conserve water while still supporting healthy, abundant growth.
