Autor bestsellerů Nejšťastnější miminko v okolí a Nejšťastnější batole v okolí se ve své knize vrací k úspěšným technikám, které se mu osvědčily v jeho pediatrické praxi, a tentokrát učí, jak je používat na klidný spánek dítěte. Přehledné shrnutí technik, označovaných jako Metoda nejšťastnějšího miminka, je uvedeno vždy na konci každé kapitoly. Zároveň autor vyvrací některé mýty ohledně spánku, například že „kojenci musí spát v naprostém tichu“ nebo že „nejlepší uspávací metodou je nechat dítě vyplakat“.
The Dead Men - the sequel to HWA Debut Crown 2022 longlisted The Silver Wolf -
picks up Jack Fiskardo's story as he returns to Germany in 1630 with the
invading Swedish army. Friends and enemies, old and new, await him - but so
does the relentless fulfilment of Jack's own destiny, and with it, an almost
impossible choice.
A beautiful and profound narrative poem set in a magic realist version of the West Country by musician and writer PJ Harvey. Nine-year-old Ira-Abel Rawles lives on Hook Farm in the village of UNDERWHELEM. Next to the farm is Gore Woods, Ira’s sanctuary, overseen by Orlam, the all-seeing lamb’s eyeball who is Ira-Abel’s guardian and protector. Here, drawing on the rituals, children’s songs, chants, and superstitions of the rural West Country of England, Ira-Abel creates the twin realm through which she can make sense of an increasingly confusing and frightening world. Orlam follows Ira and the inhabitants of UNDERWHELEM month by month through the last year of her childhood innocence. The result is a poem-sequence of light and shadow—suffused with hints of violence, sexual confusion and perversion, the oppression of family, but also ecstatic moments in sunlit clearings, song, and bawdy humour.Orlam is not only a remarkable coming-of-age tale, but the first full-length book written in the Dorset dialect for many decades. Includes a facing-page English translation.Orlam reveals PJ Harvey as not only one of the most talented songwriters of the age, but a gifted poet—whose formal skill and transforming eye and ear for the lyric line has produced a strange and moving poem like no other.
