Published on 2010-04-01 by arsenal pulp press

Hitler

Hitler
By:Volker Ullrich
Published on 2017-10 by Vintage

Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Biography A New York Times bestseller, this major new biography of Hitler puts an emphasis on the man himself: his personality, his temperament, and his beliefs. Volker Ullrich's Hitler, the first in a two-volume biography, has changed the way scholars and laypeople alike understand the man who has become the personification of evil. Drawing on previously unseen papers and new scholarly research, Ullrich charts Hitler's life from his childhood through his experiences in the First World War and his subsequent rise as a far-right leader. Focusing on the personality behind the policies, Ullrich creates a vivid portrait of a man and his megalomania, political skill, and horrifying worldview. Hitler is a landmark biography with unsettling resonance in these times.

Tennessee Williams: Mad Pilgrimage of the Flesh

Tennessee Williams: Mad Pilgrimage of the Flesh
By:John Lahr
Published on 2014-09-22 by W. W. Norton & Company

National Book Critics Circle Award Winner: Biography Category National Book Award Finalist 2015 Winner of the Sheridan Morley Prize for Theatre Biography American Academy of Arts and Letters’ Harold D. Vursell Memorial Award A Chicago Tribune 'Best Books of 2014' USA Today: 10 Books We Loved Reading Washington Post, 10 Best Books of 2014 The definitive biography of America's greatest playwright from the celebrated drama critic of The New Yorker. John Lahr has produced a theater biography like no other. Tennessee Williams: Mad Pilgrimage of the Flesh gives intimate access to the mind of one of the most brilliant dramatists of his century, whose plays reshaped the American theater and the nation's sense of itself. This astute, deeply researched biography sheds a light on Tennessee Williams's warring family, his guilt, his creative triumphs and failures, his sexuality and numerous affairs, his misreported death, even the shenanigans surrounding his estate. With vivid cameos of the formative influences in Williams's life—his fierce, belittling father Cornelius; his puritanical, domineering mother Edwina; his demented sister Rose, who was lobotomized at the age of thirty-three; his beloved grandfather, the Reverend Walter Dakin—Tennessee Williams: Mad Pilgrimage of the Flesh is as much a biography of the man who created A Streetcar Named Desire, The Glass Menagerie, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof as it is a trenchant exploration of Williams’s plays and the tortured process of bringing them to stage and screen. The portrait of Williams himself is unforgettable: a virgin until he was twenty-six, he had serial homosexual affairs thereafter as well as long-time, bruising relationships with Pancho Gonzalez and Frank Merlo. With compassion and verve, Lahr explores how Williams's relationships informed his work and how the resulting success brought turmoil to his personal life. Lahr captures not just Williams’s tempestuous public persona but also his backstage life, where his agent Audrey Wood and the director Elia Kazan play major roles, and Marlon Brando, Anna Magnani, Bette Davis, Maureen Stapleton, Diana Barrymore, and Tallulah Bankhead have scintillating walk-on parts. This is a biography of the highest order: a book about the major American playwright of his time written by the major American drama critic of his time.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
By:Mark Manson
Published on 2016-09-13 by HarperCollins

#1 New York Times Bestseller Over 1 million copies sold In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be |positive| all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people. For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. |F**k positivity,| Mark Manson says. |Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it.| In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—|not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault.| Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek. There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

The Book of Mormon

The Book of Mormon
By:Paul C. Gutjahr
Published on 2012 by Princeton University Press

|Paul Gutjahr has written the perfect book on the |Book of Mormon| fascinating, forthright, empathetic, critical, and discerning. Gutjahr employs his sheer intellectual curiosity to produce a lively, enlightening history that deftly circles among Joseph Smith, Mormons, and critics as though they were themselves engaged in an intelligent civil conversation. The result is an ideal guide to the life of a now-iconic American religious text.|--Jon Butler, Yale University |There can be no doubt that the |Book of Mormon| is among the most influential books in American history. Gutjahr's clear, compelling narrative traces this influence from the book's American beginnings through translations, migrations, and cultural adaptations into its global twenty-first century. Gutjahr treats his subject with respect, thoughtfulness, appreciation, scholarly rigor, and intellectual curiosity. Mormons and non-Mormons alike will find his book fascinating, freshly informative, and a pleasure to read.|--Joanna Brooks, author of |The Book of Mormon Girl| |With impressive command of detail rendered in lucid, accessible prose, Paul Gutjahr has produced a marvelously informative account of the |Book of Mormon| from its origins to the present. This is a very useful book for understanding American religious history.|--Randall Balmer, author of |The Making of Evangelicalism: From Revivalism to Politics and Beyond| |This probing and engaging study surveys the history, use, translation, and adaptation into other media of the |Book of Mormon.| I know of nothing else quite like it. Religious traditions change over time, and controlling a sacred text plays an important role in the self-identity of the community. Gutjahr explains not simply how changes in the text took place, but why.|--Laurie F. Maffly-Kipp, editor of |American Scriptures: An Anthology of Sacred Writings| |Paul Gutjahr's book offers a well-written, balanced summary of much of the scholarship on the |Book of Mormon,| and presents new insights and lesser-known information as well.|--Richard Lyman Bushman, author of |Joseph Smith: Rough Stone Rolling|

|Jadilah saksi atas tawanan ini, atas pertanda kemenangan ini! Ini dia Mare Barrow, pemimpin Barisan Merah. Seorang Pembunuh, teroris, musuh besar kerajaan kita. Dan, sekarang, dia berlutut di hadapan kita. Darahnya yang mengucur menjadi bukti akna identitasnya.| Gadis berkekuatan petir dari Kaum Merah-Mare Barrow-tertangkap saat memberontak dan ditahan dalam sangkar cantik Kerajaan Norta. Maven, sang Raja Kaum Perak, terobsesi membalas dendam kepadanya. Dia menjadikan Mare boneka yang tak berdaya menolak perintahnya. Namun, pemberontakan belum selesai. Percobaan pembunuhan terhadap sang Raja terjadi dan perang pun berkobar. Mare diselamatkan. Kini dia harus berlatih keras untuk menyempurnakan kekuatannya demi pertarungan puncak nanti. Di tengah situasi yang semakin panas, hubungan Mare dengan Cal-Pangeran Perak yang terbuang-pun semakin dalam. Perang menjanjikan dimulainya Era Baru. Namun, benarkah semua perbedaan bisa bersatu dan perdamaian bisa tercipta? Bagaimana jika untuk mencapai itu semua, Mare harus melepaskan hal terpenting dalam hidupnya?
