"Min barndom är min tillflyktsort." Så skriver Petra Mede i sin skildring av uppväxten och nuet. En skildring som tar avstamp i barnets intensiva känslor, varav två är särskilt ofta återkommande: skammen och högmodet.Dråpliga och rörande minnen från sjuttio- och åttiotalet i Sävedalen utanför Göteborg radas upp, och undan för undan framträder bilden av en mestadels lycklig människa med en stark känsla av att vara ämnad för något större. Skulle hon egentligen inte leva sitt liv som uppburen stjärna, en som drack paraplydrinkar på Manhattan?Parallellt följer vi den vuxna Petra under en ovanligt händelserik och känslomättad dag, som innefattar ett obekvämt besök, ett sorgligt avsked och en återkomst till en plats hon inte sett på trettiotvå år ...Det här är Petra Medes debut, skriven med den rappa och drastiska humor som vi lärt oss är hennes, men utan att rygga för livets mörker.
Svindlande stunder i Blackeberg
Petra Mede fortsätter sin svart humoristiska vandring genom uppväxten, nu med en tonårstid fylld av perfektion och kontroll i baletten som blir mer och mer hennes liv.Vi får uppleva glimtar av dansvärldens sublimitet, men oftare dess avigsidor. Osunda kroppsideal, konkurrens och ofrivilligt dråpliga situationer, bland annat i form av tröstlösa auditions som - i den alltjämt högmodiga Petras ögon - befinner sig mil från den höga konstnärliga nivå där hon borde vara verksam.Det är en tidsskildring av ett 80-tal där den nyupptäckta sjukdomen aids tar flera vänners liv, och där jakten på en roll gör att man får utstå både hån och självförakt. Men det är också en berättelse om andra personer runt den unga Petra. Genom sin skarpa och ömsinta blick på människor sätter hon fingret på både personliga och allmänmänskliga känslor.Allt tar avstamp i Petras möten med sin före detta granne, den egensinniga, kärva och charmiga Doris, 100 år, som numera bor på ett omsorgsboende i Blackeberg. Hennes och Petras liv flätas samman på mer än ett sätt.

I en tid av krympande resurser till det gemensamma och då politiska stridsfrågor i högre utsträckning avgörs i domstolen snarare än i talarstolen har tillgången till rättsväsendet rätten till rättvisa blivit en brännande fråga. När detta sker samtidigt som enskilda medborgare allt oftare behöver gå till domstol för att få sina sociala rättigheter tillgodosedda behövs nya sätt att tänka och agera. Antologin Rätten till rättvisa vill belysa denna nya verklighet. De inledande bidragen handlar om hur politiken förrättsligats och juridiken politiserats, och de följande texterna visar genom nedslag i barnrätt, hyresrätt, socialförsäkringsrätt, social­ rätt, asylrätt och miljörätt hur människor får eller inte får tillgång till rättvisa. Ambitionen är att inleda ett politiskt samtal om dessa frågor.

Nominated for the 2019 Kate Greenaway MedalIs Petra a mountain? An egg? Who knows! She's a rock and this is how she rolls. Petra is a mighty mountain that can't be moved by the wind or time. Or so we think until we discover that she's actually something even more astonishing. Petra has the potential to be anything – an island, an egg, even an elephant – thanks to her lively imagination.

While Petra's fame might often come second to things like the Egyptian pyramids at Giza, ancient Greece, or the Great Wall of China, you can now see that the Rose City certainly deserves its place under the Sun as one of the most precious jewels of our collective, human heritage. Petra surely has a surplus of beauty and other kinds of visual appeal, but you can now see that this is only half of the picture.Our world is filled to the brim with such wonders, bestowed upon us by countless different cultures from every corner of the planet. Some are older or more renowned than others, but all remnants of civilizations of the past have one thing in common: they tell us invaluable stories. These are stories of lives led by people who seem infinitely distant from our perspective but might have as well lived yesterday as far as the grand scheme of time is concerned. They might have had a different outlook and daily life, but the essence of humanity remains fundamentally unchanged.A great history lesson if you have a general interest or plan on visiting Petra Jordan

WINNER OF THE 2021 ETHEL WILSON FICTION PRIZE Inspired by Petra Kelly, the original Green Party leader and political activist who fought for the planet in 1980s Germany, Shaena Lambert brings us a captivating new novel about a woman who changed history and transformed environmental politics--and who, like many history-changing women, has been largely erased. Award-winning novelist Madeleine Thien calls Petra "a masterpiece--a fierce, humane and powerful novel for our times." January, 1980. At the height of the Cold War, Petra Kelly inspires hundreds of thousands to take to the streets to protest the placement of nuclear missiles on West German soil--including a NATO general named Emil Gerhardt, who shocks the establishment by converting to the cause. Petra and her general not only vault to fame as the stars of the Green Party, but they also fall in love. Then Manfred Schwartz, an ex-lover, urges Petra to draw back the curtain on Emil's war record, and they enter a world both complicated and threatening. Told by Manfred Schwartz, from his place in a present world even more beset by existential threats, Petra is an exploration of love, jealousy, and the power of social change. A woman capable of founding a new and world-changing politics and taking on two superpowers, Petra still must grapple with her own complex nature and a singular and fatal love.

This book contains information about a rich historical site in Jordan. This ancient site was crafted using the cliffs of sandstone in the south of the country. The word "Petra" is of Greek origin and means "rock", which perfectly suits a city carved into the cliffs of Jordan. The Rediscovered City of Stone: Just a few hours south of the country's capital, Amman, the area was officially founded by the Arab tribe of nomads. This occurred centuries before Christ was born. This tribe was well known for their impeccable engineering, agriculture, trading, and of course, stone-carving skills. Much is still unknown about this ancient culture, but we know for sure that they were incredibly talented artists and engineers. At this city, a people called the Nabataeans created tombs, temples, halls and houses, aqueducts, and prestigious altars. They created a civilization that existed right in the midst of the Near East, an ancient area for trading and commerce since the routes for transporting spice and traveling trails all existed within the city of Petra. In its hay day, Petra housed about 20,000 people, called the Nabataeans. These ancient humans were known for coming up with a way to create a waterway system to fuel their city, perhaps the most impressive fact about this is that it was right in the middle of the desert. The lost city was discovered again in the 1800s, and more information as to how the ancient inhabitants lived are still being unearthed. We are now coming to discover exactly how this impressive city appeared thousands of years back.

I am the Prima Vita, the only true immortal. But the darker the gift, the higher the blood price-and I have paid it all. At the moment of my making, at the turn of the first millennium amid the glories and horrors of Ancient Rome, two men died with me. Both reborn in my immortal blood, one became my lover and the other my enemy. I promised the unspeakable to save Lucius from Clarius. The bargain, once struck, was simple: die with Clarius once a year to keep Lucius safe for an eternity. *For those who love stories in the vein of Anne Rice, this is a fresh and unusual twist on vampire lore.
