An extraordinary book'' SARAH CHURCHWELL\r\n\r\nThe violent unease of today''s world would have been all too familiar to Hannah Arendt. Tyranny, occupation, disenchantment, post-truth politics, conspiracy theories, racism, mass migration, the banality of evil: she had lived through them all.\r\n\r\nBorn in the first decade of the last century, Arendt escaped fascist Europe to make a new life for herself in America, where she became one of the world''s most influential - and controversial - public intellectuals. She wrote about power and terror, exile and love, and above all about freedom. Questioning - thinking - was her first defence against tyranny. In place of the forces of darkness and insanity, she pitched a politics of plurality, spontaneity and defiance. Loving the world, Arendt taught, meant finding the courage to protect it.\r\n\r\nWritten with passion and authority, Lyndsey Stonebridge''s We Are Free to Change the World illuminates Arendt''s life and work and its urgent dialogue with our troubled present. It is a clarion call for each of us to think our way, as Hannah Arendt did-unflinchingly, lovingly, and defiantly-through our own unpredictable times.","authors":["Lyndsey Stonebridge"],"category_codes":["9000000","9080000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/522\/9781787332522_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/522\/9781787332522_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/522\/9781787332522_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"29,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"25 janvier 2024","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Lyndsey Stonebridge \u2014 Jonathan Cape","translator":null,"weight":750,"page_count":304,"readership":null,"editor":"Jonathan Cape","price":2980,"published_date":"2024-01-24T23:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9781787332522\/we-are-free-to-change-the-world-hannah-arendts-lessons-in-love-and-disobedience"},{"id":"9781399814034","title":"Maybe I'm Amazed : A Story of Love and Connection in Ten Songs: A BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK","description":"A BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK\r\n'BRILLIANT' ADRIAN CHILES\r\n'THIS BOOK CONTAINS MAGIC' CAITLIN MORAN\r\n'ENTRANCING, HEARTBREAKING, UPLIFTING' MARINA HYDE\r\nIn this extraordinary memoir, a father tells the story of how music has opened up the world to his son, one song at a time.\r\nObsessed with music since he was a child, John Harris had no idea that he was in fact preparing himself for the greatest challenge of his life. But so it transpired. When his son James was born, and three years later diagnosed with autism, music became a source of precious connection and endless wonder for both of them.\r\nMaybe I'm Amazed describes how the music of The Beatles, Kraftwerk, Funkadelic, The Velvet Underground, Amy Winehouse and many more were soon woven into the fabric of James's life, becoming an essential part of who he is. It takes us through the struggles of raising an autistic child in a prejudiced world, and uncovers a hidden history of neurodivergence and creativity that casts new light on why notes, chords and lyrics speak so powerfully to the human mind.\r\nAnyone who has fallen in love with a band or heard their life reflected back to them by a song will recognise themselves in the story of this father and his son. And in considering the intense and transcendent way James absorbs and connects with music, it has lessons in listening and living for us all.","authors":["John Harris"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/034\/9781399814034_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/034\/9781399814034_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/034\/9781399814034_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"24,30 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"27 mars 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"John Harris \u2014 John Murray","translator":null,"weight":379,"page_count":272,"readership":null,"editor":"John Murray","price":2430,"published_date":"2025-03-26T23:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9781399814034\/maybe-im-amazed-a-story-of-love-and-connection-in-ten-songs-a-bbc-radio-4-book-of-the-week"},{"id":"9781471149856","title":"My Sins Go With Me : A Story of Heroism and Betrayal in the Dutch Resistance","description":"'Highly engaging . . .

She survived when others did not, a witness to their courage and to the terrible treachery that betrayed so many of them to the Nazis.\r\n Tens of thousands of Dutchmen elected to fight with the Germans, while many civilians turned over their Jewish neighbours to an almost certain death. Holland's Jewish leaders prevaricated, hoping to save their people and their own skins. But the exploits of the Dutch Resistance produced unimaginable heroism and unparalleled self-sacrifice. \r\n A chance meeting with Martin Sixsmith in 2019 led to Anna-Maria telling him her story. In Dutch and German archives, interviews with survivors, personal diaries and contentious memoirs by those with things to hide, Sixsmith came across a drama on a scale he could never have imagined. \r\nMy Sins Go with Me is a story of remarkable bravery, and of cowardice and betrayal in the hardest of times.","authors":["Martin Sixsmith"],"category_codes":["1000000","1060000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/856\/9781471149856_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/856\/9781471149856_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/856\/9781471149856_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"16,40 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"13 mars 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Martin Sixsmith \u2014 Simon & Schuster UK","translator":null,"weight":287,"page_count":400,"readership":null,"editor":"Simon & Schuster UK","price":1640,"published_date":"2025-03-12T23:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9781471149856\/my-sins-go-with-me-a-story-of-heroism-and-betrayal-in-the-dutch-resistance"},{"id":"9781529342079","title":"The Master : The Brilliant Career of Roger Federer","description":"'Federer plays tennis like Michelangelo painted: every stroke is perfection, the end result a masterpiece.
