Films of Yvonne Rainer
"To read Rainer's screenplays is to rediscover, even reinvent, the films all over again, but more importantly to realize that images and mise-en-scène are as key to how Rainer's films work as is language." -The Independent "The scri...

Yvonne Rainer: Work 1961-73
'It goes without saying that a dance is a dance and a book about dance is a book. Though they may meet at the intersection of Art and Good Intentions, I find myself greedy. I have a longstanding infatuation with language, a not-easily assailed conviction that it, above all else, offers a key to clarity. Not that it can replace experience, but rather holds a mirror to our experience, gives us distance when we need it. So here I am, in a sense, trying to 'replace' my performances with a book, greedily pushing language to clarify what already was clear in other terms. But, alas, gone. This has seemed one good reason to compile a book out of the remains of my performances, letting the language fall where it may. Let it be said 'She usually makes performances and has also made a book.'' -Yvonne Rainer Forty-five years after its publication, Primary Information brings Yvonne Rainer's classic book back into print in an exact facsimile. In 1974, Yvonne Rainer published Work 1961-73, an

Eva Åker Snålskjuts
Året är 1920 och Eva är sex år. Hon har fått ett uppdrag av mamma: att hämta ett paket med tyger av tant Anna på andra sidan stan. Det är vinter och snövallarna är höga. Ute på gatorna springer hästarna med vedlass, och bakpå medarna på släden kan barnen stå och åka med. Det är så Eva tänker ta sig till tant Anna. Hon ska åka snålskjuts. Men så upptäcker hon att snöskottarna är ute, och då finns något ännu roligare: att åka snölass. Snart har Eva glömt bort både tiden och uppdraget. Eva Malmström har skrivit ett spännande vardagsäventyr som handlar om hennes egen barndom i en liten stad i norra Sverige. Berättelsen ger en fin bild av hur det var att vara barn i Sverige på 1920-talet.Boken utkommer nu med nya färgillustrationer av Jenny Berggren och efterord av Anders Råde.
Rainer W. Schlegelmilch. Porsche Racing Moments
In 1962, Rainer W. Schlegelmilch had his first experience of motorsport – the 1,000 km at the Nürburgring – and it was this that sparked a lifelong passion for both Porsche and racing that still burns today. Beginning in 1963, this wholly captivating collection of breathtaking shots transports you to another time and another world, taking you on a journey through the history of Porsche endurance racing, from Le Mans to Monza, via the Targa Florio and Spa-Francorchamps. And with his own words accompanying the pictures, Schlegelmilch shows and tells fascinating stories from track and trackside. Naturally, the cars are the heroes of this book – there’s a genuine love of Porsche cars on these pages, a real admiration in pictures for each evolution of the legendary designs. From the purpose-built prototypes of the mid-60s – the 550, 718, RS and RSK models – followed by the more powerful 907 and 908, and through to arguably the most iconic racing car designs of all time, the 917, the 962

The Selected Poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke
'This miracle of a book, perhaps the most beautiful group of poetic translations this century has ever produced,' (Chicago Tribune) should stand as the definitive English language version.
Rainer Maria Rilke's The Book of Hours
A superb new (and complete) translation of Rilke's luminously lyrical early book of poems, with scholarly introduction and commentary. Rainer Maria Rilke is arguably the most important modern German-language poet. His New Poems, Duino Elegies, and Sonnets to Orpheus are pillars of 20th-century poetry. Yet his earlier verse is less known. The Bookof Hours, written in three bursts between 1899 and 1903, is Rilke's most formative work, covering a crucial period in his rapid ascent from fin-de-siècle epigone to distinctive modern voice. The poems document Rilke'stour of Russia with Lou Andreas-Salomé, his hasty marriage and fathering of a child in Worpswede, and his turn toward the urban modernity of Paris. He assumes the persona of an artist-monk undertaking the Romantics' journey into the self, speaking to God as part transcendent deity, part needy neighbor. The poems can be read simply for their luminous lyricism, captured in Susan Ranson's superb new translation, which reproduces the
