Fear
''A classic tale of creeping, surreal menace and horror... one of the really, really good ones.'' Stephen King Professor James Lowry didn't believe in spirits, or witches, or demons. Not until a gentle spring evening when his hat disappeared, and suddenly he couldn't remember the last four hours of his life. Now, the quiet university town of Atworthy is changing - slightly at first, then faster and more frighteningly each time he tries to remember. Lowry is pursued by a dark, secret evil that is turning his whole world against him while it whispers a warning from the shadows: If you find your hat you'll find your four hours. If you find your four hours then you will die... '

Fear
'Extraordinary' Ai Weiwei It's been said that we're a more fearful society than ever before. Yet fear, and the panic it produces, have long been driving forces - perhaps the driving force - of world history: fear of God, of famine, war, disease, poverty, and other people. In Fear: An Alternative History of the World, Robert Peckham considers the impact of fear in history, as both a coercive tool of power and as a catalyst for social change. Beginning with the Black Death in the fourteenth century, Peckham traces a shadow history of the world through fear, from the French Revolution and the social movements of the nineteenth century to modern market crashes, Cold War paranoia and the AIDS pandemic, and into a digital culture increasingly marked by uniquely twenty-first-century fears. What did fear mean to us in the past, and how can a better understanding of it equip us to face the future? Through the stories of the people and the moments that changed history, Peckham reveals how fear and panic made us who we are.

End the constant cycle of stress and anxiety, stop worrying about the future, and start thriving in the present--A moving guide to a more mindful life from bestselling author Thich Nhat Hanh Most of us live in a constant state of fear--of failure, of our past, of illness and aging, of losing the things we treasure most, and of never discovering our most authentic self. But it doesn't have to be this way, promises renowned Zen master and Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh. Drawing on a lifetime of mindfulness in action, Hanh shows us how to use the practice of living in the present to acknowledge and embrace our fears, recognize their origins, and render them powerless. By offering mantras, meditations, breathing exercises, and ancient wisdom, Fear guides us through practical exercises for: - Transforming crippling uncertainty into clarity - Acknowledging and harnessing emotions while relinquishing their control - Communicating with compassion and understanding - Utilizing the immense power

Maries Rum
Äntligen är den på väg Marie Olsson Nylanders efterlängtade andra bok! Marie Olsson Nylander är multibegåvad inredare, stylist, designer och konstnär. Genom sina hyllade tv-program Husdrömmar Sicilien och Vintageresan på SVT, som lockat över en miljon tittare per säsong, har hon blivit en älskad profil och "Marie" med hela svenska folket. Den här boken handlar om Maries rum. Både de inre, de själsliga landskapen och de yttre fysiska rummen, de som hon möblerar. Marie skapar rum som konstverk, en blandning av mjukhet och mörker med en känslomässig tyngd. Berättelser, korta noveller ur Maries liv, med ibland bråddjupa, ibland halsbrytande händelser, varvas med den inredning och konst som hon drivs att skapa utifrån sin egen dramatiska livshistoria. Vad är saga, vad är sanning? Det finns ett vemod och en sorg som möblerat många rum. Styrkan är att kunna se och förvandla såväl ett öde kontorslandskap som en inrökt 70-talslåda till en färgstark och smått magisk hemmiljö. Hur skapar man samma stämning och harmoni i sitt eget hem? I den här boken hittar du svaren! MARIE OLSSON NYLANDER är internationellt erkänd inredare, stylist och antikhandlare med över hundratusen följare i sociala medier. Hon är även designer med egna möbel- och textilkollektioner som säljer slut i rekordfart. Marie bor delar av året i Rosa Huset på Sicilien. Något som skildras i hennes populära tv-program Husdrömmar Sicilien (SVT).
Maries morder
HELE HISTORIEN OM HØJBJERGDRABET – 50 ÅR EFTER Det uopklarede drab på Marie Lock-Hansen hører til blandt Danmarkshistoriens mest myteomspundne. Hvem kom ind ad døren om formiddagen den 10. november 1967 i et nydeligt hjem i Højbjerg ved Aarhus – og skød fruen i huset med koldt blod? Forfatteren til true crime-bestselleren Dobbeltmordet på Peter Bangs Vej går i denne bog bag om alle konspirationsteorierne. Med støtte i politiets akter fra sagen portrætterer han ægteparret på Hestehavevej, deres tilværelse – og alle hemmelighederne bag den borgerlige facade. Han rekonstruerer tiden omkring drabet minut for minut og følger sporene ud i Aarhus og omegn. Trådene trækkes også bagud til de dunkle punkter i hr. og fru Lock-Hansens samliv, og baseret på research og interviews med de tilbageværende vidner i sagen lægger Peer Kaae brikkerne på ny og tegner et aldrig tidligere set billede af mordet og morderen. Peer Kaae, f. 1965, har arbejdet med dokumentarprogrammer på DR,
