Påträngandet
En gäst dyker en dag upp i det stora hus där en ung kvinna bor. Hon tillåter honom att stanna och han blir snart en märklig fixpunkt för henne. Han tvingas följa de regler hon ställer upp och hon blir alltmer besatt av honom, fram till den dag han plötsligt är borta. Då beger hon sig ut på en resa där hon i sin tur själv blir till en gäst.Ariane Koch har med Påträngandet skrivit en roman som utmanar det konventionella berättandet.En samtidigt absurd, komisk och rörande berättelse om hem och resande, om okänt och välbekant, om det privata och om gästfrihet.

The Holker Album
In 1751, John Holker (1719-1786), an English textile manufacturer exiled in France, undertook an industrial espionage mission to England to collect samples of English textiles on behalf of the French king, Louis XV. On his return, the samples were assembled in a manuscript volume, which is now preserved at the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris. Each sample in this album is accompanied by a handwritten technical description specifying the quality of the fabric, its price, its dimensions and the manufacturing processes. This album is famous for preserving the oldest identifiable samples of jean fabric. Completely bilingual, the book includes a facsimile reproduction of the album, accompanied by a transcription of its handwritten text and a dozen essays. The essays, written by academics, curators and specialists from France, Britain, and North America, explore the album from various angles: the globalisation of commerce, the slave trade, industrial espionage, economic rivalry between
