HarperCollins Publishers Inc Tatami Galaxy *SHORTLISTED FOR THE PEN TRANSLATION PRIZE*An unfulfilled college student hurtles through four parallel realities to explore the what-might've-been and the what-should-never-be in this Groundhog Day meets The Midnight Library-esque novel from one of Japan's most popular authors.Our protagonist, an unnamed junior at a prestigious university in Kyoto, is on the verge of dropping out. After rebelling against the dictatorial jock president of the film club, he and his worst and only friend, the diabolical creep Ozu, are personas non grata on campus. For two years, our protagonist has made all the wrong decisions, and now he's about to make another mistake. He and Ozu are preparing for revenge-a fireworks attack at the film club's welcoming party for new members. Then, a chance encounter with a self-proclaimed god sets the confused and distraught young man on a new course. Destiny will bring him together with Akashi, the blunt but charming sophomore he has a crush on-if he's brave enough to make a move. Yet our protagonist cannot get beyond his profound disillusionment and the moment is lost. But what if there's a universe where he did join the club of his dreams, ditched Ozu for good, and was confident enough to get the girl? A realm of possibility opens up for our protagonist as time rewinds, and from the four-and-a-half-mat tatami floor of his dorm room, he is plunged into a series of adventures that will take him to four parallel universes. In each universe, he is given the opportunity to start over as a freshman, in search of a rose-colored campus life.The inspiration behind the much-loved anime series, Tomihiko Morimi's contemporary classic is a fantastic journey through time and space, where a half-eaten castella cake, a photograph from Rome, and a giant cavity in a wisdom tooth hold the keys to self-discovery. A time-traveling romp that speaks to everyone who has wondered what if, The Tatami Galaxy will win readers' hearts over . . . and over . . . and over again. | 1 | 13,09 € | Vaata | ||

Taschen GmbH Titian Immerse yourself in the rich shades and textures of Tiziano Vecellio (c. 1490–1576), commonly known as Titian, and the figurehead of 16th-century Venetian painting. With his bold approach to form and startling, opulent colors, Titian worked with a number of prestigious commissions and left behind an astonishing repertoire of portraits, mythological scenes, altarpieces, and landscapes that remains one of the most important legacies of Renaissance art. This dependable artist introduction traces Titian’s complete career and its trailblazing influence on successive generations of artists, from Diego Velázquez to van Dyck. From the rippling sensuality of Venus of Urbino (c. 1538) to the airborne dynamism of Bacchus and Ariadne (1520–1523), all the major works are here, charting the artist’s stylistic experimentation over time as well as his consistent and unique ability to work across genres and to bring a defining new level of emotional and spiritual aspect to his subjects. | 1 | 15,59 € | Vaata | ||

Taschen GmbH Dalí. Tarot Cuenta la leyenda que durante los preparativos de la película de James Bond Vive y deja morir, el productor Albert Broccoli encargó al maestro surrealista Salvador Dalí que diseñara una baraja de cartas de tarot. Inspirado probablemente por Gala, que alimentó su interés por el misticismo, Dalí se puso manos a la obra. El proyecto le entusiasmaba y siguió con él aun cuando el acuerdo con el productor finalmente no llegó a concretarse.Sus diseños fueron publicados en una Edición de Arte limitada en 1984 agotada desde hace tiempo, lo que convierte a Dalí en el primer pintor de prestigio en crear una baraja de cartas de tarot completamente nueva. Sirviéndose de las obras maestras occidentales desde la Antigüedad hasta la modernidad (incluidas algunas creaciones propias), Dalí combina a la perfección su conocimiento de lo arcano con su inconfundible ingenio. El resultado es un caleidoscopio surrealista de la historia del arte europeo.TASCHEN recupera las 78 cartas en un nuevo homenaje a la inimitable baraja diseñada por Dalí, acompañada de un cuaderno a cargo del reconocido experto alemán en el tarot Johannes Fiebig que incluye:una introducción a la vida de Dalí y a la realización del proyectouna descripción detallada de la composición de cada carta, su significado y consejos prácticosinstrucciones paso a paso sobre cómo leer las cartasuna explicación sin tecnicismos que simplifica el tarot para principiantes | 1 | 48,09 € | Vaata | ||

NEW IN CHESS The Match of All Time When the Icelandic Chess Federation made a bid to host the 1972 world title match between Soviet icon Boris Spassky and American challenger Bobby Fischer, many Icelanders were rightly shaking their heads in disbelief. How could their small island country in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean with a population of less than 300 thousand people stage such a prestigious event in the first place?Undeterred and naively optimistic the young President of the Icelandic Chess Federation, Gudmundur Thorarinsson, set to work and to everyones astonishment theirs was the winning bid. But that was only the beginning of one of the most amazing stories in chess historyBobby Fischers demands and whims constantly jeopardised the match. First the American chose not to board his plane in New York, and then he came late for the first game. That game he lost after a silly blunder and the second game he lost because he didnt turn up in a fight about noisy cameras. But next he won the third game, that was played in a back room, and the rest. is history.Fifty years on, Gudmundur Thorarinsson has written a tell-all book about The Match of the Century, crammed with behind-the-scenes stories and improbable twists and turns. Reading his gripping account of probably the most iconic sports contest during the Cold War, you will understand why he prefers to call it The Match of All Time.And why reliving this most unlikely adventure he comes to the conclusion: It was not possible to organise this match, nor was it possible to rescue itbut still it was done! | 1 | 21,39 € | Vaata | ||

LUMEN POESIA COMPLETA 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.

[...] 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.

Quadrille Publishing Ltd Vogue on: Coco Chanel Hailed as 'the most influential female designer of the twentieth century', Coco Chanel pioneered classic easy-to-wear fashion for the modern woman. She arrived on the fashion scene when feathers, lace and ostentatious beads were favourites, and proceeded to re-invent couture using new materials, like jersey, for outfits that were suitable for everyday wear yet still elegant. With original illustrations and images from celebrated photographers, such as Cecil Beaton, Bronwyn Cosgrave traces the story of Coco Chanel's iconic designs and glamorous, racy life. In 1921 Coco opened her Chanel boutique in Paris - still a destination store today - and launched her first perfume, Chanel No.5. Perhaps her most important contribution to the fashion world was the simple, much-imitated 'little black dress' which made its debut in 1926. Other landmark creations include the Chanel suit and the quilted handbag. A testament to her lasting influence, these legendary designs remain as popular today as when they first appeared. Vogue, the international fashion bible, has charted the careers of designers through the decades.Its unique archive of photographs, taken by the leading photographers of the day from Cecil Beaton to Mario Testino, and original illustrations, together with its stable of highly respected fashion writers, make Vogue the most authoritative and prestigious source of reference on fashion. With a circulation of over 160,000 and a readership of over 1,400,000, no brand is better positioned to present a library on the great fashion designers of the modern age. | 1 | 17,89 € | Vaata | ||
