'Brims with ideas and insights . . . Ghosh is at his sparkling best' IRISH TIMES Wild Fictions brings together Amitav Ghosh's extraordinary writing on the subjects that have obsessed him over the last twenty-five years: literature and language; climate change and the environment; human lives, travel, and discoveries. The spaces that we inhabit, and the way in which we occupy them, is a constant thread throughout this striking and expansive collection. From the significance of the commodification of the clove, the diversity of the mangrove forests in West Bengal and the radical fluidity of multilingualism, Wild Fictions is a powerful refutation of imperial violence, a fascinating exploration of the fictions we weave to absorb history, and a reminder of the importance of empathy. With the combination of moral passion, intellectual curiosity and literary elegance that defines his writing, Amitav Ghosh makes us understand the world in new, and urgent, ways. Together, the pieces within Wild Fictions chart a course that allows us to heal our relationships and restore a delicate balance with the volatile landscapes to which we all belong. 'We owe a great debt to Ghosh's brilliant mind, avenging pen, and huge soul' NAOMI KLEIN, author of This Changes Everything Autorid: Amitav Ghosh
Thought-provoking, encouraging, and inspiring (Gretchen Rubin) reflections on the power of travel to transform our daily livesfrom the iconoclastic travel writer, scholar, and author of VagabondingFor readers who dream of travel, yearn to get back out on the road, or want to enrich a journey theyre currently on, The Vagabonds Way explores and celebrates the life-altering essence of travel all year long. Each day of the year features a meditation on an aspect of the journey, anchored by words of wisdom from a variety of thinkersfrom Stoic philosopher Seneca and poet Maya Angelou to Trappist monk Thomas Merton and Grover from Sesame Street. Iconoclastic travel writer and scholar Rolf Potts embraces the ragged-edged, harder-to-quantify aspects of travel that inevitably change travelers lives for the better in unexpected ways. The books various sections mirror the phases of a trip, including dreaming and planning the journey: All life-affecting journeysand the unexpected wonders they promisebecome real the moment you decide they will happen. embracing the rhythms of the journey: The most poignant experiences on the road occur in those quiet moments when we recognize beauty in the ordinary. finding richer travel experiences: Developing an instinct to venture beyond the obvious on the road allows you to see places as mysteries to be investigated. expanding your comfort zone: No moment of instant gratification can compare to savoring an experience that has been earned by enduring the adversity that comes with it. The Vagabonds Way encourages you to sustain the mindset of a journey, even when you arent able to travel, and affirms that travel is as much a way of being as it is an act of movement.

Named a Best Book of the Year by The New York Times, The Washington Post, and SlateReading this book is a joy . . . much to say about the trans journey and will undoubtedly become a standard for those in need of guidance. The Washington PostSantes bold devotion to complexity and clarity makes this an exemplary memoir. It is a clarion call to live ones most authentic life. The Boston GlobeNot to be missed, I Heard Her Call My Name is a powerful example of self-reflection and a vibrant exploration of the modern dynamics of gender and identity. Lit Hubs Most Anticipated Books of 2024An iconic writers lapidary memoir of a life spent pursuing a dream of artistic truth while evading the truth of her own gender identity, until, finally, she turned to face who she really wasFor a long time, Lucy Sante felt unsure of her place. Born in Belgium, the only child of conservative working-class Catholic parents who transplanted their little family to the United States, she felt at home only when she moved to New York City in the early 1970s and found her people among a band of fellow bohemians. Some would die young, from drugs and AIDS, and some would become jarringly famous. Sante flirted with both fates on her way to building an estimable career as a writer. But she still felt like her life was a performance. She was presenting a facade, even to herself.Santes memoir braids together two threads of personal narrative: the arc of her life, and her recent step-by-step transition to a place of inner and outer alignment. Sante brings a loving irony to her account of her unsteady first steps; there was much she found she still needed to learn about being a woman after some sixty years cloaked in a mans identity, in a mans world. A marvel of grace and empathy, I Heard Her Call My Name parses with great sensitivity many issues that touch our lives deeply, of gender identity and far beyond. Autorid: Lucy Sante
"Anger," Seneca notes, "is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured." In "On Anger," Seneca delves into this powerful emotion, taking the reader on a journey that is both thoughtful and instructive. Rather than dismissing anger as an unchangeable part of the human condition, Seneca dissects it, laying bare its roots and exposing its many faces. From understanding its cause to learning how to master it, the reader is guided through a series of reflections that are as relevant today as they were in ancient Rome. With wisdom and eloquence, "On Anger" provides a practical guide to this complex emotion.
