When Englishman Chris Broad landed in a rural village in northern Japan he wondered if he'd made a huge mistake. With no knowledge of the language and zero teaching experience, was he about to be the most quickly fired English teacher in Japan's history?Abroad in Japan charts a decade of living in a foreign land and the chaos and culture clash that came with it.Packed with hilarious and fascinating stories, this book seeks out to unravel one the world's most complex cultures. Spanning ten years and all forty-seven prefectures, Chris takes us from the lush rice fields of the countryside to the frenetic neon-lit streets of Tokyo. With blockbuster moments such as a terrifying North Korean missile incident, a mortifying experience at a love hotel and a week spent with Japan's biggest movie star, Abroad in Japan is an extraordinary and informative journey through the Land of the Rising Sun.

Als Chris Broad völlig blauäugig einen Job als Hilfslehrer in der nordjapanischen Provinz annahm, fragte er sich, ob er nicht einen schrecklichen Fehler gemacht hatte. Weder sprach er ein Wort Japanisch, noch hatte er irgendwelche Erfahrungen im Unterrichten. Würde er als der am schnellsten gefeuerte Englischlehrer in die Geschichte Japans eingehen?In seinem Buch erzählt Chris Broad mit viel Witz darüber, wie er vor mehr als zehn Jahren direkt nach der Uni von Großbritannien nach Japan ausgewandert ist und was er seither im Alltag dort alles so erlebt hat - Culture Clash und viele skurrile Begebenheiten inklusive.Bald schon begann er Videos über sein Leben im Land der aufgehenden Sonne zu drehen und bereiste Japans 47 Präfekturen, von den üppigen Reisfeldern auf dem Land bis zu den neonbeleuchteten Straßen Tokios. Er erlebte einen erschreckenden nordkoreanischen Raketenzwischenfall, machte eine kränkende Erfahrung in einem Liebeshotel und verbrachte eine Woche mit Japans größtem Filmstar.Von all seinen großen und kleinen Erfahrungen in Japan berichtet er in seinem Buch, das in England sogleich auf den ersten Platz der Sunday-Times-Bestsellerliste stürmte.»Ein witziger Blick auf das Land des Karaoke, der Katzenfanatiker und der schokoladenüberzogenen Pommes.« The Times

The story of Thomas Sutpen, an enigmatic stranger who came to Jefferson in the early 1830s to wrest his mansion out of the muddy bottoms of the north Mississippi wilderness. He was a man, Faulkner said, "who wanted sons and the sons destroyed him."

Quentin Compson and Shreve, his Harvard room-mate, are obsessed by the tragic rise and fall of Thomas Sutpen. As a poor white boy, Sutpen was turned away from a plantation owner's mansion by a negro butler. From then on, he was determined to force his way into the upper echelons of Southern society. His relentless will ensures his ambitions are soon realised; land, marriage, children. But in after the chaos of Civil War, secrets from his own past threaten to destroy everything he has worked for.

First published in 1936, "Absalom, Absalom!" is Faulkner's ninth novel and one of his most admired. It is the story of Thomas Sutpen and his ruthless, single-minded attempt to forge a dynasty in Jefferson, Mississippi, in 1830. Although his grand design is ultimately destroyed by his own sons, a century later the figure of Sutpen continues to haunt young Quentin Compson, who is obsessed with his family legacy and that of the Old South. "Faulkner's novels have the quality of being lived, absorbed, remembered rather than merely observed," noted Malcolm Cowley. ""Absalom, Absalom!" is structurally the soundest of all the novels in the Yoknapatawpha series--and it gains power in retrospect." This edition follows the text of "Absalom, Absalom! "as corrected in 1986 under the direction of Noel Polk.

The second volume of previously uncollected work from between 1946-1992, edited by David Calonne.

Widely acclaimed throughout Latin America after its 1992 release in Argentina, "The Absent City" takes the form of a futuristic detective novel. In the end, however, it is a meditation on the nature of totalitarian regimes, on the transition to democracy after the end of such regimes, and on the power of language to create and define reality. Ricardo Piglia combines his trademark avant-garde aesthetics with astute cultural and political insights into Argentina's history and contemporary condition in this conceptually daring and entertaining work. The novel follows Junior, a reporter for a daily Buenos Aires newspaper, as he attempts to locate a secret machine that contains the mind and the memory of a woman named Elena. While Elena produces stories that reflect on actual events in Argentina, the police are seeking her destruction because of the revelations of atrocities that she - the machine - is disseminating through texts and taped recordings. The book thus portrays the race to recover the history and memory of a city and a country where history has largely been obliterated by political repression.Its narratives - all part of a detective story, all part of something more - multiply as they intersect with each other, like the streets and avenues of Buenos Aires itself. The second of Piglia's novels to be translated by Duke University Press - the first was "Artifical Respiration" - this book continues the author's quest to portray the abuses and atrocities that characterise dictatorships as well as the difficulties associated with making the transition to democracy. Translated and with an introduction by Sergio Waisman, it includes a new afterword by the author.

This book investigates the impact of absent and inadequate fathers on the lives and psyches of their daughters through the perspective of Jungian analytical psychology. It tells the stories of daughters who describe the insecurity of self, the splintering and disintegration of the personality, and the silencing of voice.

In a lively introduction to masculine psychology for baby-boomers, Corneau makes a fascinating connection between the difficulties middle-aged men encounter in building and maintaining secure relationships and the profound feelings they have concerning their fathers' literal or emotional silences.

A newly reissued edition of Agatha Christie's 'Mary Westmacott' novel, a Crime of the Heart novel about a soldier who returns from the grave.

Adler-Olsen delivers an electrifying follow-up to his "New York Times"-bestselling debut, "The Keeper of Lost Causes." Morck is back. He's settled into Department Q and is ready to take on another cold case. This time, it's the brutal double-murder of a brother and sister two decades earlier.
