The First Bad Man
3.490 kr.From the acclaimed filmmaker, artist, and bestselling author of No One Belongs Here More Than You, a spectacular debut novel that is so heartbreaking, so dirty, so tender, so funny–so Miranda July–readers will be blown away.
Here is Cheryl, a tightly-wound, vulnerable woman who lives alone, with a perpetual lump in her throat. She is haunted by a baby boy she met when she was six, who sometimes recurs as other people’s babies. Cheryl is also obsessed with Phillip, a philandering board member at the women’s self-defense non-profit where she works. She believes they’ve been making love for many lifetimes, though they have yet to consummate in this one.
When Cheryl’s bosses ask if their twenty-one-year-old daughter Clee can move into her house for a little while, Cheryl’s eccentrically-ordered world explodes. And yet it is Clee–the selfish, cruel blond bombshell–who bullies Cheryl into reality and, unexpectedly, provides her the love of a lifetime.
Tender, gripping, slyly hilarious, infused with raging sexual fantasies and fierce maternal love, Miranda July’s first novel confirms her as a spectacularly original, iconic and important voice today, and a writer for all time. The First Bad Man is dazzling, disorienting, and unforgettable.

House of Day, House of Night
4.390 kr.A woman settles in a remote Polish village. It has few inhabitants, but it teems with the stories of its living and its dead. There’s the drunk Marek Marek, who discovers that he shares his body with a bird, and Franz Frost, whose nightmares come to him from a newly discovered planet. There’s the man whose death – with one leg on the Polish side, one on the Czech – was an international incident. And there are the Germans who still haunt a region that not long ago they called their own. From the founding of the town to the lives of its saints, these shards piece together not only a history but a cosmology. Another brilliant ‘constellation novel’ in the mode of her International Booker Prize-winning Flights, House of Day, House of Night is a brilliantly imaginative epic novel of a small place by Olga Tokarczuk, one of the most daring and ambitious novelists of our time.

Elemental Rebirth
7.490 kr.Elemental Rebirth is a deeply personal healing journey, poetically woven through the voices of the elements – water, fire, air and earth.
In her early thirties, Jósa Goodlife faced the life-altering challenge of overcoming cervical cancer through a hysterectomy. Yet, what began as a physical transformation became the gateway to a profound personal rebirth… one that you are invited to witness in this book.
Elemental Rebirth is a gift to those willing to receive – a narrative that transcends the physical and dives into the heart of – what it means to be a human being, with all its struggles and sensitivities, grace and much beauty. It is not merely a story of survival, but a living testament to the power of embracing change and finding purpose along unexpected paths.
With the energetic and poetic support of the elements, Jósa’s story invites readers on a creative journey through the swirling layers of the mind – touching the mysteries of life and death. It carries a wish for renewed hope, a call for more intentional living on this magical planet, and a gentle shedding of the heavy shadows cast by a mind-conditioned, results-driven society.
At its heart, Jósa’s hope is to reconnect humanity with its innate purpose: to fall back in love with the miracle of existence. Through the restorative forces of the elements, we are reminded of our essential kinship with the natural world and with one another. And above all, to remember how the power of love will always guide us back home.

Grár köttur, vetrarkvöld
6.490 kr.Hún strýkur leðrinu og áttar sig á því hvað það er orðið kalt. Hún verður að ræsa bílinn. Það er fyrsta skrefið.
Hitað sæti gæti breytt öllu. Ef hún gerir það ekki kemst hún aldrei héðan. Og varla eru til verri örlög en að sitja að eilífu fastur á frosnu bílastæði úti á Seltjarnarnesi?
Til hvers er lífið þegar kötturinn manns er týndur? Slík spurning gæti virst léttvæg, en þegar öllu er á botninn hvolft er þá eitthvað mikilvægara en að finna ylinn af öðru lífi?
Að vita af einhverju sem undirstrikar eigin mannleika? Eitthvað sem jafnvel mætti kalla ást?
Grár köttur, vetrarkvöld er loðin lýsing á þeirri upplifun að upplifa. Að þrá og þurfa og þjást og þakka fyrir að vera til. Allt eftir aðstæðum. Á meðan skuggarnir lengjast og rotturnar fara á stjá…
