It takes a few wrong turns to find the right way. Paul Millerd thought he was on his way. From small-town Connecticut kid to the most prestigious consulting firm in the world, brushing shoulders with CEOs and with the resume to match. The Pathless Path is about finding yourself in the wrong life, and the real work of figuring out how to live. Through painstaking experiments, living in different countries and the goodwill of people from around the world, Paul Millerd pieces together a set of ideas and principles that guide him from unfulfilled and burned out to the good life and all of the existential crises in between. This book is a personal journey of awakening and is an ideal companion for people considering leaving their jobs, embarking on a new path, dealing with the uncertainty of an unconventional path, or searching for better models for thinking about work in a fast-changing world.
Peter Lindbergh photographed DIOR’s most exceptional muses, Marion Cotillard and Charlize Theron among them, and signed campaigns for Lady Dior and J'Adore with his inimitable style. Throughout his career, the photographer was one of the house’s closest collaborators. This final book was an original cocreation that was close to the artist’s heart—and to ours.Seventy years of DIOR history projected against the effervescence of Times Square, New York: this was the concept behind Lindbergh’s project, extraordinary both in scope and dimension, for which DIOR, in an unusual move, allowed an unprecedented number of priceless garments to be taken from its vaults in Paris and shipped across the Atlantic.The result is electric. Amid the frenzy of Times Square, Alek Wek glows in the immaculate 1947 Bar suit, the storied ensemble that launched the House of DIOR. In snatches of street scenes, models Saskia de Brauw, Karen Elson, and Amber Valletta flit through crowds and scaffolding, are reflected in building façades, and draped in haute couture, from pieces hand-sewn by Christian Dior to more recent designs by Maria Grazia Chiuri. Lindbergh’s trademark monochrome and color photographs masterfully highlight the intricacies, silhouettes, and textures of each garment.Lindbergh himself is present in every aspect of this publication designed by his long-time collaborator and friend Juan Gatti. This volume features 165 never-before-published images from the shoot, including an introduction by Martin Harrison, and pays homage to Lindbergh’s profound relationship with the Parisian House by curating more than 100 of his photographs of DIOR creations, from haute couture to ready-to-wear, men’s and women’s, originally published in some of the world’s most prestigious magazines such as Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. A breathtaking tribute to two pillars of fashion and photography and their timeless collaborations.

Lumen publica la obra poética completa de una de las escritoras argentinas más emblemáticas de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, la controvertida, polémica y malograda Alejandra Pizarnik. «Cada poema [suyo] es el cubo de una inmensa rueda.»Julio Cortázar Alejandra Pizarnik es una figura de culto de las letras hispanas y una autora que se internó por infiernos raramente visitados por la literatura española. Su poesía se caracteriza por un hondo intimismo y una severa sensualidad o, en palabras de Octavio Paz, la obra de Pizarnik lleva a cabo una «cristalización verbal por amalgama de insomnio pasional y lucidez meridiana en una disolución de realidad sometida a las más altas temperaturas». Esta edición, a cargo de Ana Becciu, incluye los libros de poemas editados en vida de la autora y los poemas inéditos compilados a partir de manuscritos.Reseñas:«La belleza de su enigmática y sobrecogedora poesía [...] no acaba nunca.»Winston Manrique Sabogal, El País «Cada poema [suyo] es el cubo de una inmensa rueda.»Julio Cortázar «Sobre mi mesa, lleva semanas abierto el volumen que contiene la Poesía completa de ese irrepetible y doliente meteoro que fue Alejandra Pizarnik (1936-1972), de quien no me resisto a transcribir unos versos estremecedores: no atraigas frases / poemas / versos / no tienes nada que decir / nada que defender / sueña sueña que no estás aquí / que ya te has ido / que todo ha terminado.»Manuel Rodríguez, Babelia «Sumergirse en la intimidad de la gran poeta argentina es adentrarse en las arenas movedizas de una pulsión suicida. [...] Así es su escritura: el constante descubrimiento de una rosa con espinas. [...] Se la lee de poco en poco, como quien paladea un vino añejo.»Rocío Niebla, Tinta Libre «La palabra parece la guarida que no siempre es capaz de proteger. Su poesía es luminosa en la oscuridad; provoca vértigo, perturba; las ausencias pesan y la belleza desgarra.»Estandarte «Un hecho excepcional en la literatura argentina, que puede adjudicarse al aura de prestigio casi legendario que ha envuelto la vida y la obra de Alejandra Pizarnik.»César Aira «Al encanto de Pizarnik de ser una figura envuelta en el misterio y una personalidad inexplicable, hay que añadir el hecho de que palabra por palabra ella escribía la noche, y el lector que se acerque a ella descubrirá que esa escritura nocturna, que tenía un alto sentido del riesgo, nacía de la más pura necesidad, como a pocos escritores del siglo XX se les ha visto: una lírica extrema y también una tragedia.»Enrique Vila-Matas, Babelia «Alrededor de una obra breve, se despliega una constelación que va conformando la imagen deuna de las poetas más leídas, comentadas y hasta mitificadas de la segunda mitad del siglo XX.»Edgardo Dobry, El País «Una figura de culto y una autora que se internó en infiernos raramente visitados en la literatura española.»Rosa Martí, Esquire «La poesía de Pizarnik hay que desbrozarla lentamente.»Julia Navarro, ABC - Cultural«Pizarnik nos descubre un éxtasis en la inestabilidad del lenguaje y logra arrancarle una verdad mercurial y patética.»Los Angeles Review of Books «Basta nombrarla para que en el aire vibren la poesía y la leyenda. Una lírica extrema y también una tragedia.»Luis Chitarroni
