James Joyce

E£85.00

By the time James Joyce wrote "The Fengan Awakening" with its broad view of world history, he might have fully felt that quotes like "modern" or "traditional" no longer made sense when applied to his work, but to his old admirers he is above everything else. : Updated like no other.

    Moons above the family tree: Vol. 2

    E£170.00 E£68.00

    I am drawn to the poem of the poet, a man from the inside, an ulterior motive .. I turn it in my hands with joy, like a strange-wing butterfly ... as a wild flower that opened in a polar or tropical climate ... its aesthetic atoms smash each other and ignite letters and light up the breaks..and he digs his way with his ribs, nails and feathers of his eyelids .

    Paradoxical Life: Meaning, Matter, and the Power of Human Choice

    E£210.00

    What can a fingernail tell us about the mysteries of creation? In one sense, a nail is merely a hunk of mute matter, yet in another, it’s an information superhighway quite literally at our fingertips. Every moment, streams of molecular signals direct our cells to move, flatten, swell, shrink, divide, or die. Andreas Wagner’s ambitious new book explores this hidden web of unimaginably complex interactions in every living being. In the process, he unveils a host of paradoxes underpinning our understanding of modern biology, contradictions he considers gatekeepers at the frontiers of knowledge.

        Talking with Sartre: Conversations and Debates

        E£195.00

         John Gerassi had just this opportunity as a child, his mother and father were very close friends with Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir and the couple became for him like surrogate parents. Authorized by Sartre to write his biography.

        Through the interviews with both their informalities and their tensions, Sartre’s greater complexities emerge. In particular we see Sartre wrestling with the apparent contradiction between his views on freedom and the influence of social conditions on our choices and actions. We also gain insight into his perspectives on the Spanish Civil War, World War II, and the disintegration of colonialism.

          E£195.00

          The contemporary church dismisses Christianity's foundational Scriptures at its own peril.
