For fans of The Bunny Suicides, Simon's Cat and 101 Uses of a Dead Cat comes the hilariously offensive Hate Mail by Mr Bingo. 'Gorgeous and funny! Like a labrador doing stand-up' — Noel Fielding 'A horrible, hilarious little book' — The Times 'Wonderfully offensive... Wonderfully vicious' — The Huffington Post Mr Bingo loves post. In April 2011 he launched a service on his website, where, for a small payment, he would send his customer a vintage postcard with one of his iconic drawings and an offensive message on the back. So the purchaser gets a much sought-after original signed drawing, the postman gets a laugh and the world gets a little bit happier. Six days after launch, it had become so popular that he had to temporarily close the service. But fear not! Mr Bingo is teaming up with Penguin to create Hate Mail, a book that will showcase 100 of his favourite comic cards.

Ai Weiwei Speaks

Автор: Obrist H.U. Издательство: Penguin Group, 2013 |
PDF, 128 страниц, 3.84 МБ
|
'If artists betray the social conscience and the basic principles of being human, where does art stand then?' Ai Weiwei — artist, architect, curator, publisher, poet and urbanist — extended the notion of art and is one of the world's most significant creative and cultural figures. In this series of interviews, conducted over several years with the curator Hans Ulrich Obrist, he discusses the many dimensions of his artistic life, ranging over subjects including ceramics, blogging, nature, philosophy and the myriad influences that have fed into his work. He also talks candidly about his father, his childhood spent in exile and his criticism of the Chinese state. Together, these extraordinary discussions give a unique insight into the outstanding complexity of Ai Weiwei's thought and work, and are an essential reminder of the need for personal, political and artistic freedom.

Atlas Shrugged
|
Penguin Group
|
Автор: Rand A. Издательство: Penguin Group, 2013 |
PDF, 1168 страниц, 35.04 МБ
|
A towering philosophical novel that is the summation of her Objectivist philosophy, Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged is the saga of the enigmatic John Galt, and his ambitious plan to 'stop the motor of the world', published in Penguin Modern Classics. Opening with the enigmatic question 'Who is John Galt?', Atlas Shrugged envisions a world where the 'men of talent' — the great innovators, producers and creators — have mysteriously disappeared. With the US economy now faltering, businesswoman Dagny Taggart is struggling to get the transcontinental railroad up and running. For her John Galt is the enemy, but as she will learn, nothing in this situation is quite as it seems. Hugely influential and grand in scope, this story of a man who stopped the motor of the world expounds Rand's controversial philosophy of Objectivism, which champions competition, creativity and human greatness. Ayn Rand (1905-82), born Alisa Rosenbaum in St. Petersburg, Russia, emigrated to America with her family in January 1926, never to return to her native land. Her novel The Fountainhead was published in 1943 and eventually became a bestseller. Still occasionally working as a screenwriter, Rand moved to New York City in 1951 and published Atlas Shrugged in 1957. Her novels espoused what came to be called Objectivism, a philosophy that champions capitalism and the pre-eminence of the individual. If you enjoyed Atlas Shrugged, you might like Rand's The Fountainhead, also available in Penguin Modern Classics. 'A writer of great power ... she writes brilliantly, beautifully, bitterly' The New York Times 'Atlas Shrugged ... is a celebration of life and happiness' Alan Greenspan

«The «Architecture in Detail» series comprises books that focus on individual buildings noted for their exceptional character, innovative design or technical virtuosity. Each volume contains a text by a respected author, a sequence of colour and black-and-white photographs and a set of technical drawings and working details. Strategically placed above a waterfall, Fallingwater's horizontal cantilevered floors and terraces soar free of apparent support. The building exemplifies Wright's attitudes towards integrating architecture and nature.»

This Is How You Lose Her
|
Penguin Group
|
Автор: Diaz Junot Издательство: Penguin Group, 2013 |
PDF, 240 страниц, 7.20 МБ
|
«Junot Dнaz burst into the literary world with Drown, a collection of indelible stories that revealed a major new writer with the «eye of a journalist and the tongue of a poet» (Newsweek). His eagerly awaited first novel, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, arrived like a thunderclap, topping best-of-the-year lists and winning a host of major awards, including the Pulitzer Prize. Now Dнaz turns his prodigious talent to the haunting, impossible power of love. The stories in This Is How You Lose Her, by turns hilarious and devastating, raucous and tender, lay bare the infinite longing and inevitable weaknesses of our all-too-human hearts. They capture the heat of new passion, the recklessness with which we betray what we most treasure, and the torture we go through — «the begging, the crawling over glass, the crying» — to try to mend what we've broken beyond repair. They recall the echoes that intimacy leaves behind, even where we thought we did not care. They teach us the catechism of affections: that the faithlessness of the fathers is visited upon the children; that what we do unto our exes is inevitably done in turn unto us; and that loving thy neighbor as thyself is a commandment more safely honored on platonic than erotic terms.»
