In his quest for truth and answers concerning the suspicious death of his son and his family, retired career soldier, Jesse Hunter, finds himself in a sedate retirement village in New Zealand’s South Island where he reunites with a former Special Air Services buddy. After making friends with some of the village’s retirees, who themselves have past military backgrounds, they find out that a young man who visits them regularly has a mysterious and out-of-character disappearance. Are Jesse’s son and the young man’s demise somehow connected? As suspicions are also raised about the integrity of the local police, the ‘boys’ decided to take matters into their own hands with a little bit...
The essays included in this volume mostly originate from the conference organised by the editors at Glasgow Women’s Library in March 2012. Language, multilingual narratives and interaction between cultures and languages were key themes of the conference. Interdisciplinary and international, the conference, like this edited volume, brought together specialists working in a range of fields and provided an opportunity for exchanges between historians, sociologists, scientists and literary scholars, as well as between theoreticians and practitioners, academics and non-academics. In spite of these many different approaches, all the papers presented here transcend the idea of ‘national identit...

Parlando dei tarocchi, l’abate Constant, le cui pubblicazioni sono alla base dell’occultismo, disse: “È un’opera monumentale e singolare, semplice e forte come l’architettura delle piramidi e di conseguenza duratura come le piramidi stesse; si tratta di un metodo di divinazione che riassume tutte le scienze e le cui infinite combinazioni possono risolvere tutti i problemi; un metodo che parla e fa pensare, ispiratore e regolatore di tutte le concezioni possibili”. L’autrice, con questo libro, permette al lettore di entrare nel mondo dei tarocchi, trovando il metodo che più gli sarà congeniale, o inventandosi il “suo” metodo grazie alla conoscenza del significato dei 22 Arcani Maggiori.
Nathan eta Tom osaba-ilobak dira. Osaba dibortziatuta dago eta bizitzan gorabehera franko bizi izan eta gero, ezertan askorik sinesten ez duela, biriketako minbiziaren putzutik burua ateratzen aurkitzen dugu bere haurtzaroko Brooklynen. Bakarrik. Iloba, berriz, ikasle garaian oso gora igo behar zuela ematen zuena, behera-behar geldiezin batean dago. Bakarrik hau ere. Brooklynen, halabeharrez. Hirukotea osatzen duena, Harry, iragan iluneko arte faltsutzaile izandakoa da, eta, gaur egun, Tomen ugazaba, bigarren eskuko liburu-denda batean. Hiru hari nagusi horiekin zutean, eta zeharka sartzen diren hainbat eta hainbat pertsonaia eta kontakizun gogoan erraz gelditzen direnekin osatzen du Paul Auster-ek tapiz bizi eta ero hau. Eleberri distiratsua da Brooklyngo erokeriak (Auster-en lehen lan euskaratua), etsipena maitasun bihurtzen dakiena, argia, bizkorra, barre-eragile sotila; gauzatzen diren eta zapuzten diren ametsen gainean diharduena.
Corporate debt restructurings in the emerging markets have always presented special challenges. Today, as the global economy emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic and businesses look to pick up the pieces, this is even more true. For many, the financial hangover of the lockdowns and market disruptions linger and threaten their independence, even their survival. This peril is more acute in the emerging and frontier markets. Weaker economic fundamentals and institutional resiliency often intensify the challenge to return to pre-COVID-19 operating levels and financial sustainability. In this context, borrowers invariably must address the imbalance of substantial existing debt with the “new reali...
