Ikke krig og ikke fred

Ikke krig og ikke fred

Jan Guillou

Mellem Putins Rusland og Trumps USA opstår et nyt og farligt tomrum. Det er hverken krig – så krigens regler gælder ikke – eller fred, hvor fredens regler gælder. Det er noget andet. Rusland har indledt en hybridkrig mod sine naboer. I kulissen aktiveres Carl Hamilton og hans enhed af militære specialister til en operation, der ikke tåler dagens lys. Midt i denne skumringstilstand kæmper Erik Ponti forgæves med at finde et nyt ståsted som forfatter. Men da han bliver mål for et attentatforsøg, kastes han direkte ind i en konflikt, han ikke kan vende ryggen til. Gerningsmændene begår dog mindst to fejl: De angriber en mand, der kender Hamilton, og de bevæger sig direkte ind i en militær konflikt, hvor der hverken tages hensyn eller fanger. IKKE KRIG OG IKKE FRED er fjerde selvstændige bog i serien om Jan Guillous to populære hovedpersoner Carl Hamilton og Erik Ponti, der har slået sig sammen for at bekæmpe uretfærdighed i samfundet. ”Jan Guillou fortsætter med ’Ikke krig og ikke fred’ sin causerende, kværulerende, men ganske underholdende nutidssaga om Erik Ponti og Carl Hamilton. Egentlig en ganske enestående manøvre.” 4 hjerter, Politiken
The Death of Fred Astaire

The Death of Fred Astaire

Leslie Lawrence

Excelsior Editions
2016
pokkari
When, in the late eighties, the author chooses to raise a child with her lesbian partner, she embraces a life outside the lines—one full of curious adventures as well as the usual catastrophes and everyday pleasures. Finalist for the 2016 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award in the Autobiography & Memoir category As a child of the sixties, Leslie Lawrence knew she didn't want to duplicate her parents' lives, yet she never imagined she'd stray so far outside the lines of their-and her own-expectations.The Death of Fred Astaire opens with the story, both wrenching and funny, of how Lawrence says her goodbyes to the iconic images she's held since her youth; she then proceeds to bear a child and raise him with her lesbian partner. Some essays in this debut collection reflect on legacies Lawrence inherited from her Jewish family and culture. In others, she searches gamely for a rich, authentic life-a voice, a vocation, a community, even a "god" she can call her own. Always a seeker, an adventurer resisting fear, Lawrence, a city girl, creates a summer home in the back woods of the "Live Free or Die" state. She attempts the flying trapeze and takes part in a cross-dressing workshop. Traveling alone to Morocco, she assists a veterinarian tending to an ailing donkey. Teaching in a vocational high school in Boston, she questions her methods and assumptions about race and class. With rare honesty, she confronts the complexities of motherhood, of caring for her ill partner, and of widowhood. In "Wonderlust," the collection's most ambitious piece, she explores the role of beauty and creativity in our spiritual lives, revealing how lifelong learning in dance, music, and the visual arts can make us all more alive even as we age. Ranging widely in length, subject, and style, these personal essays place Lawrence among today's most vital writers of creative nonfiction. Her warmth and wisdom, her distinctive blend of humor and pathos, her reverence for what sustains us-food and family, community and beauty-all make this a book you'll want to share with those you love.

Vi lever i en tid der behovet for samtaler og forhandlinger er akutt, mener Kai Eide. Nå deler den erfarne diplomaten sine opplevelser fra et halvt århundre i toppsjiktet av internasjonal politikk. Han forteller om forhandlingene mellom Øst og Vest fra 1970-tallet og framover, som førte til historiske avtaler om avspenning og nedrustning, til Tysklands samling og et mer demokratisk Europa. Disse prosessene viste at det nytter å snakke sammen, selv der motsetningene er som sterkest. Men så kom nye konflikter til syne, og i dag preger igjen brutale kriger Europa, Afrika og Midtøsten. Samtidig ruster stormaktene seg til tennene; våpnene har på nytt tatt diplomatiets plass. Verden er i opprør, vi er rådville, og derfor haster det, mener Eide: Vi trenger at diplomatiet igjen settes i sentrum. Hans erfaring som toppdiplomat er at forhandlinger ofte innledes for sent. Og der politiske prosesser avbrytes, stiger spenningen raskt. Det er en utvikling vi må stoppe. Denne boken er hans bidrag til forståelsen av vår nære fortid - og av hvordan forhandlinger lykkes og hvorfor de også feiler. Selv om mye i dag kan virke håpløst, må vi finne veien til en ny «diplomatiets tidsalder», argumenterer han. Erkjennelsen av grunnleggende, felles interesser må igjen få overtaket over krigshissingen.
