The Goldfinch
The Goldfinch
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 2014 Aged thirteen, Theo Decker, son of a devoted mother and a reckless, largely absent father, survives an accident that otherwise tears his life apart. Alone and rudderless in New York, he is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. He is tormented by an unbearable longing for his mother, and down the years clings to the thing that most reminds him of her: a small, strangely captivating painting that ultimately draws him into the criminal underworld. As he grows up, Theo learns to glide between the drawing rooms of the rich and the dusty antiques store where he works. He is alienated and in love - and his talisman, the painting, places him at the centre of a narrowing, ever more dangerous circle. The Goldfinch is a haunted odyssey through present-day America and a drama of enthralling power. Combining unforgettably vivid characters and thrilling suspense, it is a beautiful, addictive triumph - a sweeping story of loss and obsession, of surv…

Tjibbe Hooghiemstra - Water (Hardback)
Tjibbe Hooghiemstra - Water (Hardback)
Water as a concept is a leitmotiv in Hooghiemstra's work. His work does not only engage in the phenomenon water per se, but also about voyages of discovery from the past, how maps were drawn and land sometimes rose as an illusion from the ocean, how water is perceived and how it is represented in visual art and science. Text by Nancy Campbell, Scottish poet and winner of Royal Geographical Society Ness Award 2020, and American poet and 2019 Pulitzer Prize winner, Forrest Gander. Tjibbe Hooghiemstra (Tytsjerk, 1957) had exhibitions in The Netherlands and abroad on a regular basis, from the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin and The Model in Sligo (Ireland), to various galleries and art fairs in New York, Basel, Berlin, Paris and Tokyo.

Reisverhaal Lost Japan | Alex Kerr
Reisverhaal Lost Japan | Alex Kerr
An enchanting and fascinating insight into Japanese landscape, culture, history and future. Originally written in Japanese, this passionate, vividly personal book draws on the author's experiences in Japan over thirty years. Alex Kerr brings to life the ritualized world of Kabuki, retraces his initiation into Tokyo's boardrooms during the heady Bubble Years, and tells the story of the hidden valley that became his home. But the book is not just a love letter. Haunted throughout by nostalgia for the Japan of old, Kerr's book is part paean to that great country and culture, part epitaph in the face of contemporary Japan's environmental and cultural destruction. Winner of Japan's Shincho Gakugei Literature Prize, and now fully revised in a new edition. Alex Kerr is an American writer, antiques collector and Japanologist. Lost Japan is his most famous work. He was the first foreigner to be awarded the Shincho Gakugei Literature Prize for the best work of non-fiction published in Japan.

'There's something about abandoned places which moves me and captures the imagination.' So says seasoned travel writer Jennifer Barclay as she walks with her dog and her backpack through the deserted spaces of the Dodecanese, islands that were once bustling but are now half forgotten and reclaimed by the wild due to a mix of misfortune and the lure of opportunity elsewhere.

She travels from the very west to the very east of the Dodecanese, from the very south almost to the very north, taking in some of the smallest and the biggest islands, and highlighting diff…
