Urban Sanctuaries
Features 31 magnificent residences that elevate urban living to an entirely new level. This unique volume showcases the best in contemporary residential design from around the world, created by renowned architects and interior designers. Urban life is often defined by its energy--fast-moving, restless, and ever-changing. Yet within the heart of the world's great cities lie rare sanctuaries that balance this intensity with calm, beauty, and refinement. Urban Sanctuaries celebrates these havens of design, where architecture and interiors transform daily living into something extraordinary. As the much-anticipated successor to Urban Mansions & Apartments (2020)--a volume that quickly sold out in print--this book continues the journey into contemporary urban living. Featuring 31 magnificent residences, from penthouses and lofts to townhouses and historic renovations, it offers an intimate look at how the best architects and interior designers elevate private spaces above the rhythm of the streets. Each residence tells its own story. From the sweeping views of a Manhattan penthouse to the quiet elegance of a Brussels townhouse, from the refined tranquility of a Dubai villa to the richly detailed character of a Brooklyn retreat, these homes embody the diversity of urban design today. They are more than dwellings: they they are expressions of personality, artistry, and vision.
Country Life's Book of Dogs
A celebration of the many breeds of dog we love, as seen through the pages of Country Life magazine, from working the fields to romping through splendid gardens to lounging in beautifully appointed sitting rooms. Throughout its 125-year history, Country Life has chronicled our love affair with dogs. This elegantly designed volume features seventy breeds based on Royal Kennel Club classifications: hounds, working dogs, terriers, gundogs, herding dogs, toys, and utility. Each breed profile includes modern and archival photographs along with history, anecdotes, and lore. Here we see the romance of English country living through a canine lens. From Jilly Cooper and her rescue greyhound to Trudie Styler's wolfhounds and many famous country estates, such as Badminton House, Belvoir Castle, Castle Howard, and Holkham Hall--as well as the Royal Family with their dogs at Balmoral, Windsor Castle, and Highgrove--the book offers an intimate look at Britain's stately houses, gardens, and gorgeous countryside. Most of today's breeds originated in Britain or were codified by the Royal Kennel Club, as covered by Country Life from its inception. The book poignantly raises awareness about breeds that are today considered vulnerable to extinction, such as the winsome Norwich terrier, the stout bull terrier, or the resolute otterhound, currently ranked most endangered. Also included are non-native breeds that have long associations with the Royal Family or the nobility--such as Pomeranians, Queen Victoria's lifelong passion, and pugs, native to China but long an aristocratic favorite.

The undead have long provided the perfect vessel for humanity's fears and desires--from spine-tingling chills to sinister sexiness, vampires are the ultimate representation of the most frightening and alluring parts of ourselves. They've inspired poems that tell stories, proffer warnings, and imagine life from inside the eternal night, by authors like J.W. Goethe, Lord Byron, Emily Dickinson, Charles Baudelaire, Anna Laetitia Barbauld, Delmira Agustini, and Ishmael Reed, brought together with many more in this one-of-a-kind collection. With an introduction by Claire Kohda, author of Woman, Eating. Contents include: CHILLING TALES: poems by Gottfried August Burger, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Robert Southey, Anne Bannerman ("The Dark Ladie"), John Stagg ("The Vampyre"), Lord Byron, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Rafael Campo DIRE WARNINGS: poems by Heinrich August Ossenfelder ("The Vampire"), John Keats, Henry Thomas Liddell ("The Vampire Bride"), James Clerk Maxwell, Charles Baudelaire, Christina Rossetti, Madison Julius Cawein, Rudyard Kipling, Conrad Aiken, Edna St Vincent Millay ("The Witch-Wife"), James Weldon Johnson THE VAMPIRE WITHIN: poems by Anna Laetitia Barbauld, Emily Bront禱 ("Ah!

The Last Miracle
A unique collection of stories--presented together here for the first time--from one of the great voices of the European Jewish diaspora This collection from one of the great pre-war writers, himself a member of Europe's Jewish diaspora, highlights the precarious position that Jewish people have occupied throughout millennia, in stories that move across centuries and nations but show the unchanging pressure of outsider status. But these stories are about individuals, too--in Zweig's treatment, the particular passions of particular hearts will always blaze out brightly against the levelling forces of history. In 'Mendel the Bibliophile', a bookseller's obsession with his wares blinds him to the progress of war and the threat it poses to his own life. Monomania is also an overpowering force in 'Downfall of the Heart', in which an aging father cannot accept his daughter's embrace of new freedoms. 'The Miracles of Life' is a masterfully ironic tale, which plays with the tension between faith and morality, society and individual, against the backdrop of 1500s Antwerp and the Dutch rebellion against Spanish rule. 'In the Snow' sees a Jewish community in medieval Eastern Europe fleeing the violence of a Christian sect. And in the longest piece in the collection, the novella The Buried Candelabrum, we go all the way back to the ancient world, where the recovery of a sacred seven-branched candlestick stolen during the sack of Rome will become a young Jewish boy's life's mission.
