|
|||
|
Professor Hans Rekke söker en syster han inte visste fanns – och hittar sin pappas efterlämnade dagbok. Sin far minns han som hård och kall. Men i dagboken träder en man i svår kris fram, en person slagen till golvet av en djup skuld. Har pappan begått ett brott, ett mord till och med? Rekke börjar söka i det förflutna, ovetande om att hans okända syster är på jakt efter samma historia – med samma sorts skarpsinne. Kommer syskonen förenas i den jakten eller stå inför varandra som fiender? Samtidigt går Rekkes parhäst Micaela Vargas i en fälla gillrad av sin kriminella bror Lucas. Lucas vill hämnas för att Micaela försökt sätta dit honom, och nu verkar han ha lyckats. Micaela riskerar att förlora både sin tjänst inom polisen och sin heder. Ur djupen ropar jag är en kriminalroman om familjehemligheter, konspirationer och kärlekens svarta kraft. |
2. Famesick - Lena Dunham
|
|||
|
In this rowdy, frank reflection on illness, fame, sex, and everything in between, the remarkable mind behind the hit series Girls and the bestselling author of Not That Kind of Girl asks whether fulfilling her creative ambitions has been worth the pain. For the last decade, as she’s spent countless hours in doctor’s waiting rooms searching for diagnoses, treatments, and relief, being the owner and operator of Lena Dunham’s body has felt, as she puts it, “like towing a wrecked car across town at midnight.” It’s not easy dragging a wrecked car anywhere, much less to the Met Gala while sewn into a gold lamé corset. Or to the set of the hit show that you—as a twenty-five-year-old—are writing, directing, producing, and starring in. Or to the White House, the Golden Globes, or your publicist’s office to discuss the latest internet disaster. But Dunham does it—even if it means interminable hospital stays, vomiting in the bathroom when she’s meant to be meeting Oprah, or terrifying those closest to her—because she can no longer tell the difference between fighting to do what she loves and being a servant to her own ambition. All the while, she is holding out for a love that can withstand her personal and public challenges and, more than anything, yearning to feel like herself again—if only she could remember who that self was. As Dunham takes us through her journey, tracking her rise to fame—from selling the pilot of Girls to the present—in three acts, it becomes clear that the spotlight casts long shadows, distorting the relationships she once held dear and isolating everyone in its glare. When an endless supply of drugs can’t protect you from pain—and begins to control your every move—being famous doesn’t stand a chance against the darker corners of the human experience. In Famesick , Dunham asks herself what the cost of fulfilling her dreams has really been, and whether it was worth it. What she finds is deeper than physical relief, and more lasting, as she learns to live with what she can’t change and turn her regrets into wisdom that can carry her forward, as she reconnects to what, and who, she loves. |
3. The Woman from Nowhere - Kristen Ashley
|

|
After a heartbreaking betrayal, Mabel Adams reinvents herself for the fourth time. Regardless of the alarming reputation of the deceptively sleepy town of Misted Pines, she decides to move all the way across the country to start yet again. Mabel has a one-night stand with a mountain man who rocks her world in bed but doesn't tell her his name. The next day, after receiving a threatening note from her neighbors, she discovers she's living next to an extremist cult where the women go in and are never seen again. After serving, former Navy SEAL Hutch Hutchison is living a peaceful life on his patch in the mountains outside Misted Pines. He's been burned so many times by women, he's happy to train his guard dogs, play his guitar, live remote, and most of all, quiet. Until he hooks up with a beautiful woman who lives just down the way. And then he discovers she's been threatened by the cult next door. Hutch's protective instinct sparks, and he decides his next mission is to keep Mabel safe at all costs. But there's something even hinkier about that cult than Hutch or local law enforcement expect. As Hutch executes the riskiest mission of his life—keeping Mabel safe at the same time keeping both of their hearts intact—Hutch and the Sheriff's Department try to unravel the mystery of The Lion and The Lamb before it's too late. Because Mabel is in their crosshairs. And Hutch is not about to allow her to disappear. |
4. Håll Gränsen - Roger Skagerlund
|

|
När ett skuggfartyg driver in på svenskt territorialvatten förändras allt. Kommendörkapten Martin Bertilsson, ny fartygschef på HMS Visby, ställs inför ett till synes rutinmässigt uppdrag: att skydda Sveriges gräns och undvika eskalation. Men bakom nödanropet döljer sig något långt farligare än ett motorhaveri. Ett beslagtaget fartyg. Ett ryskt krigsfartyg på väg. Beväpnade män som inte backar. När våldet bryter ut till sjöss sprider sig konflikten snabbt in i hjärtat av Sverige. Sabotage, desinformation och ett brutalt gisslandrama avslöjar ett angrepp som inte följer några kända regler. Gränsen mellan krig och fred suddas ut, och ingen vet längre var nästa slag kommer falla. Håll Gränsen är en tät, realistisk militärthriller om lojalitet, ansvar och priset för att stå emot när trycket blir för stort. Det är berättelsen om den dag då Sverige tvingades inse att gränser inte bara försvaras med vapen, utan med beslut som aldrig går att ta tillbaka. Gränsserien, del 1 Det här är bara början. |

6. Öga för öga - Tonny Gulløv

Ulv Palnatoke har rest till Skjalm Viteläders gravgille på Själland, där alla män med någon sorts ställning deltar. Palnatoke är således omgiven av män han har väldigt lite till övers för, män som i sin tur inte har någon större aktning för honom, den galne jarlen från Fyn. Under gravgillet blir Palnatoke nedslagen, bortförd och kastad i en mörk fängelsehåla, för att bli slagen halvt fördärvad. Någon vill se honom död, men vem och varför är inte lätt att veta när man har fler fiender än fränder. Palnatokes fångvaktare förmår dock inte ta livet av honom, hur ihärdigt de än försöker. Och det är inget den galne jarlen tänker glömma i första taget. Inte heller är Palnatoke den som håller igen. Så när det är dags att utkräva blodshämnd byter han gärna den omgång stryk han själv mottog mot ett dussin svärdshugg. Det har blivit dags att göra upp gamla räkenskaper med männen från Själland, av vilka en dessutom lagt beslag på hans svärd. Palnatoke anser förstås att samtliga själlänningar förtjänar att mista huvudet, men det är dessvärre inte en åsikt som Harald Blåtand delar med honom. Öga för öga är del 6 i Tusenårsriket , en spännande och underhållande serie om en tid då danerna i strävan efter rikedom, skaldernas lovprisning och evig ära ständigt stred mot varandra och otaliga andra folkslag. |

But when the team's General Manager vocalizes his blatant disapproval of my promotion to Captain, referring to me as an unapproachable lone wolf with no work-life balance, I can't think of a better way to convince him otherwise than pretending to date my outgoing roommate. The only problem? Faking it feels far too natural. Having a fake girlfriend wasn't supposed to be messy but having Indy under my roof and in my bed is complicated, especially when she wants all the romantic parts of life that I could never give her.

He needs me to act as his loving girlfriend who's suddenly changed him into a friendly and approachable guy. Because, well . . . he's not. He's controlling of his space and untrusting of others. Our arrangement isn't one-sided, though. I'm in a wedding coming up, one where every one of my childhood friends, including my ex-boyfriend, will be in attendance, and there's no better date than my ex's celebrity hero. Blurred lines make it almost impossible to separate real from fake. Falling for my roommate was never part of the deal, especially when Ryan is quick to remind me that he doesn't believe in love. I'm a romantic and can't help fantasizing that he'll change, but soon enough, I find myself questioning if sharing a roof with my best friend's brother was the right move after all . . .

31. Blodets meridian - Cormac McCarthy
|
|||
|
Detta är en vilda västern-berättelse, men knappast av det slag ni läst eller sett förut. I "Blodets meridian" kommer våldsamheten och utsattheten i 1800-talets amerikanska vildmark en så nära att språket nästan känns som en egen materia. Cormac McCarthy har byggt sin berättelse på en av 1800-talets många brottslegender, om ett gäng skalpjägare som undan för undan riktade våldet inte bara mot stridförande apacher, utan mot alla som kom i deras väg i Sonora-öknen mellan Texas och Mexico. "Blodets meridian" utkom 1985 och anses av många som McCarthys bästa roman, en fascinerande kombination av historisk roman och filosofisk betraktelse, som pekar fram mot senare mer berömda verk som "Gränstrilogin", "Vägen" och "No Country for Old Men". |

Being born and raised within the club, her goal is to earn her place on back of a brother’s bike. But not just anyone’s. No, she had to pick the biggest, most pig-headed and quick-tempered of the bunch. The one she nicknamed “The Beast,” because that’s how he acts both in and out of bed. She’s wanted Diesel for so long she’s not about to give up the fight to become his. She’s bound and determined to win this battle one way or another.   Diesel fights his desire for Jewel until a rival MC threatens what he realizes is his, and no one gets away with that.

40. Nine Lies About Work: A Freethinking Leader’s Guide to the Real World - Marcus Buckingham
|
|||
|
Forget what you know about the world of work You crave feedback. Your organization's culture is the key to its success. Strategic planning is essential. Your competencies should be measured and your weaknesses shored up. Leadership is a thing. These may sound like basic truths of our work lives today. But actually, they're lies. As strengths guru and bestselling author Marcus Buckingham and Cisco Leadership and Team Intelligence head Ashley Goodall show in this provocative, inspiring book, there are some big lies--distortions, faulty assumptions, wrong thinking--that we encounter every time we show up for work. Nine lies, to be exact. They cause dysfunction and frustration, ultimately resulting in workplaces that are a pale shadow of what they could be. But there are those who can get past the lies and discover what's real. These freethinking leaders recognize the power and beauty of our individual uniqueness. They know that emergent patterns are more valuable than received wisdom and that evidence is more powerful than dogma. With engaging stories and incisive analysis, the authors reveal the essential truths that such freethinking leaders will recognize immediately: that it is the strength and cohesiveness of your team, not your company's culture, that matter most; that we should focus less on top-down planning and more on giving our people reliable, real-time intelligence; that rather than trying to align people's goals we should strive to align people's sense of purpose and meaning; that people don't want constant feedback, they want helpful attention. This is the real world of work, as it is and as it should be. Nine Lies About Work reveals the few core truths that will help you show just how good you are to those who truly rely on you. |
41. En ädel död - Donna Leon
|
|||
|
Donna Leons böcker om kommissarie Guido Brunetti utspelar sig i Venedig. Omgiven av den sympatiska venetianska miljön löser Brunetti mordgåtor som för läsaren in i det annars så slutna italienska samhällets övre skikt. Trots att Brunetti alltid mycket målmedvetet nystar upp sina mordfall finner han ändå tid att umgås med familjen och att inta utsökta måltider. Ingalill Mosander på Aftonbladet träffar helt rätt när hon beskriver Brunetti som Europas mest karismatiske kommissarie.   En ädel död har sin början på landsbygden utanför Venedig. En man på en traktor plöjer upp kvarlevorna efter en människa. På samma plats påträffas en ring med ett ingraverat släktvapen. Ringen leder snabbt polisen till slutsatsen att den döde är den ett par år tidigare kidnappade sonen till en venetiansk adelsfamilj. Rättsläkarens rapport visar att den unge mannen inte avled på naturlig väg utan att han mördades och eftersom han härstammade från Venedig får Brunetti mordfallet på sitt bord.   Brunetti börjar nysta och ställer en rad frågor. Varför mördades den unge mannen när hans förmögne far mycket väl hade kunnat betala den begärda lösensumman? Varför uppsökte den unge mannen läkare veckorna före kidnappningen och klagade över magsmärtor och onormal trötthet? Hur var egentligen förhållandet mellan honom och den ambitiöse styvbrodern? Svaren rullas efterhand upp och mordgåtan får en våldsam och sorglig upplösning.   Parallellt med mordfallet får Brunetti mer privata bekymmer när hans svärfar gör honom uppmärksam på att Brunettis fru, Paola, inte är lycklig. Men även detta lyckas Brunetti lösa med stor hjälp av Paola själv.    På polisstationen är det dock samma stämning som det brukar vara. Brunettis chef, Patta, är som vanligt odräglig och Brunetti och dennes kolleger gör sitt bästa för att arbeta utan inblandning av honom. Brunetti får mycket hjälp i undersökningarna av Pattas initiativrika sekreterare, signorina Elettra. Med datorns hjälp lyckas hon skaffa en hel del information åt Brunetti och han inser för första gången att det kanske vore värt att själv lära sig hur datorn fungerar. Signorina Elettra ställer glatt upp som lärare. På sitt eget lite saktmodiga sätt följer alltså även Brunetti med i det moderna samhällets utveckling.Donna Leon är född 1942 i New Jersey. Efter sina universitetsstudier följde hon med en klasskamrat till Rom. Efter detta år i Italien följde en tid när Leon flackade runt i världen som lärare i engelsk litteratur, med Jane Austen som specialitet en legosoldat i litteratur, som hon själv uttrycker det. Leon undervisade i Schweiz, Kina, Iran, Saudiarabien och Venedig, där hon slog sig ner för gott 1981. Donna Leon fick bokkontrakt och är sedan 1992 en väletablerad deckarförfattare i Europa. Hennes böcker ges dock inte ut i Italien då hon vill behålla sin anonymitet. Men Leon får ändå tåla att busslaster med turister kommer till Venedig för att följa i kommissarie Brunettis fotspår. |

46. Queen of Angels - Greg Bear
|
|||
|
Hugo Award Finalist: A near-future novel of artificial intelligence, human nature, and mass murder that "succeeds on virtually every level" ( The New York Times Book Review ).   In Los Angeles in 2047, advances in the science of psychology have made crime a rare occurrence. So it's utterly shocking when eight bodies are detected in an apartment, and not long afterward the perpetrator is revealed as well: noted poet Emmanuel Goldsmith. The LAPD's Mary Choy—who has had both her appearance and her police work enhanced by nanotechnology—is tasked with arresting the killer, while psychotherapy pioneer Martin Burke prepares to explore his mind. Meanwhile, Goldsmith's good friend and fellow writer reels at the news—while, far from all of them, a space probe makes a startling discovery.   This "excellent" novel about technology, identity, and the nature of consciousness is a thought-provoking stunner by the Nebula Award–winning author of the Eon series and the Forerunner Saga ( Chicago Tribune ).     |

Her ruthless actions and impressive feats of carnage have made her notorious among those who operate from the shadows of the Kingdom of Claydale.

HE IS HER DUSK. SHE IS HIS DAWN. After a bitter betrayal, he refuses to trust hunters, but a certain huntress catches his eye . . . Greg Claw's bonded mate did the unthinkable, conspiring against him and his family during their time together, so she is punished with death. Now he knows never to trust a hunter. This includes the newly appointed chief octopus, Sushmita. But the more he's around her, the more intrigued he becomes. The longer they work together, the more he can't deny the connection growing between them. It's not a bond, but there's certainly something. Sushmita has her own secrets and motives for everything she does, and choosing this profession is no exception . . . Never one to choose her heart over her mind, Sush is never where she is by accident, and right now, she's determined to see through her venture regardless of how much she has to give up and who she has to leave behind. The presence of a brooding lycan duke won't make a difference—or at least it shouldn't. But with threats pressing in close, danger lurking in the shadows, and things not appearing as they seem, Greg and Sushmita will have to face the choice between giving in and letting go, or risk losing it all.

Humiliated and heartbroken, Stephanie fled into the night—pregnant, alone, and determined never to need him again. Six years later, she's built a life in the shadows, raising their daughter in secret. She's stronger now. Harder. She doesn't believe in second chances or broken Alphas seeking redemption. But when Blackridge comes hunting for the child she's hidden, Martin returns—no longer the coward who destroyed her, but a man willing to burn his world down to keep them safe. He claims he's changed. That he'll fight for her this time. Stephanie wants to hate him. She wants to run. But her daughter deserves a father, and the bond she thought severed is pulling her back toward the one wolf who broke her completely.

52. Israel: What Went Wrong? - Omer Bartov
|
|||
|
A leading genocide scholar explores the history of Zionism, Israel’s lurch towards extreme oppression and violence, and why it stands accused of crimes against humanity 'Essential' BOOKLIST 'Anyone disturbed and frightened by our current moral and intellectual morass should read it' PANKAJ MISHRA Professor Omer Bartov was born on a kibbutz, grew up in Tel Aviv and served in the Israel Defence Forces during the Yom Kippur War. He went on to become an expert on the German army and the Holocaust, before turning his attention to his native country. In Israel: What Went Wrong? , Bartov explores the transformation of Zionism from a movement of Jewish emancipation and liberation into a state ideology of ethno-nationalism, exclusion and violent domination of Palestinians. He traces the process whereby Israel – whose establishment in 1948 received international support in the aftermath of the Holocaust – now faces accusations of war crimes and genocide. What are the implications of Israel’s near total impunity for the post-1945 regime of international law? And how do we understand the widespread support for these policies by Israel’s Jewish citizens? The result is a searing and urgent critique that addresses today’s debates over Zionism, genocide, and the future of Israel with rigour and depth. |

55. Gothic Tales - Marquis de Sade
|
|||
|
A collection of witty, transgressive tales from the great Enlightenment thinker, best known for his inimitable blend of philosophy and scandalous sexuality __________ 'A bawdy burlesque' Guardian 'A wonderful introduction to Sade's diversity...among the most accessible of his fiction.' Literary Review 'Sade, who seemed to represent nothing throughout the nineteenth century, may well dominate the twentieth.' Guillaume Apollinaire __________ The Marquis de Sade is one of the select group of authors whose name has become an adjective, inspiring the word 'sadism' with his shocking works of philosophical fiction. But for all his scandalous reputation, Sade was a moralist and a philosopher above all, and the stories collected here show him in his full range, using his kinky imagination to poke fun at convention and decry social ills. In the longer stories, 'Florville and Courval' and 'Eugénie de Franval', we see one of the greatest taboos of all - incest - employed to criticise the corrupt social order of the time. Shorter pieces such as 'The Horse-Chestnut Flower' and 'The Husband Who Played Priest', meanwhile, show Sade's sharp sense of humour at play. This collection reveals France's most infamous libertine as an author whose literary range and psychological insight can still astonish, centuries after he first shocked polite society. |
56. The Hidden Wealth of Nations - Gabriel Zucman
|
|||
|
A "masterful" work that quantifies the cost of tax havens and large-scale tax evasion to ordinary citizens, and explores solutions to the problem ( American Prospect ). One much-discussed solution to the rapidly growing problem of economic inequality is to significantly increase the rate at which we tax the wealthy. But with an enormous amount of the world's wealth hidden in tax havens—in countries like Switzerland, Luxembourg, and the Cayman Islands—this wealth cannot be fully accounted for and taxed fairly. No one, from economists to bankers to politicians, has been able to quantify exactly how much of the world's assets are currently hidden—until now. Gabriel Zucman is the first economist to offer reliable insight into the actual extent of the world's money held in tax havens. And it's staggering. Fighting the notion that any attempts to vanquish tax havens are futile since some countries will always offer more advantageous tax rates than others, as well the counter-argument that tax havens have disappeared since the 2007–2008 global financial crisis, Zucman shows how both sides are actually very wrong. In The Hidden Wealth of Nations he offers an ambitious agenda for reform, focused on ways in which countries can change the incentives of tax havens. Only by first understanding the enormity of the secret wealth can we begin to estimate the kind of actions that would force tax havens to give up their practices. Zucman's work has quickly become the gold standard for quantifying the amount of the world's assets held in havens. In this concise book, he lays out in approachable language how the international banking system works and the dangerous extent to which the large-scale evasion of taxes is undermining the global market as a whole. If we are to find a way to solve the problem of increasing inequality, The Hidden Wealth of Nations is essential reading. "Unusually lucid and elegant prose—particularly for an economist—complemented by an admirable grasp of history. His review of the ways that efforts to combat tax evasion have stalled for the past century makes the book a worthwhile read in and of itself. . . . Zucman is still at the beginning of what promises to be a brilliant career." ― The Atlantic |
57. Understanding Digital Culture - Vincent Miller

|
This is not simply a book about 'internet studies'. It is a book that considers many wider forms of digital culture, including mobile technologies, surveillance, algorithms, ambient intelligence, gaming, big data and technological bodies (to name a few) in order to explore how digital technology - in a broad sense - is used within the wider contexts of our everyday lives. "The first edition of Understanding Digital Culture set a new benchmark as the most comprehensive, scholarly and accessible introduction to the area. This latest edition, thoroughly updated and substantially expanded, is even better '“ a perfectly balanced book that combines theory and empirical analysis to illuminate the cutting-edge of cultural and social change." - Professor Majid Yar, Lancaster University |

FRANZ KAFKA [1883-1924] var en tyskspråkig tjeckisk prosaist, som sedan länge anses vara en av 1900-talets viktigaste och mest inflytelserika författare. De tre romanerna, Processen, Slottet och Amerika läses av ständigt nya generationer. |
60. Pollution Is Colonialism - Max Liboiron
|
|||
|
In Pollution Is Colonialism Max Liboiron presents a framework for understanding scientific research methods as practices that can align with or against colonialism. They point out that even when researchers are working toward benevolent goals, environmental science and activism are often premised on a colonial worldview and access to land. Focusing on plastic pollution, the book models an anticolonial scientific practice aligned with Indigenous, particularly Métis, concepts of land, ethics, and relations. Liboiron draws on their work in the Civic Laboratory for Environmental Action Research (CLEAR)—an anticolonial science laboratory in Newfoundland, Canada—to illuminate how pollution is not a symptom of capitalism but a violent enactment of colonial land relations that claim access to Indigenous land. Liboiron’s creative, lively, and passionate text refuses theories of pollution that make Indigenous land available for settler and colonial goals. In this way, their methodology demonstrates that anticolonial science is not only possible but is currently being practiced in ways that enact more ethical modes of being in the world. |

62. La trampa - Magda Portal
|
|||
|
Con La trampa , novela publicada en 1957, Magda Portal deja testimonio de su militancia política y, a través de un canto coral, retrata las diversas luchas por alcanzar el poder en el Perú de mediados del siglo XX. Usando como detonante un asesinato, narra, con exquisita y extraordinaria sensibilidad, la realidad social de esos años. Contubernios, arreglos oscuros, discursos oficiales y no oficiales, ejecuciones sumarias de jóvenes, traiciones entre partidarios, la realidad carcelaria, la utilización de las masas y, también, la violencia de género y el acoso sexual a aquellas mujeres que osaban sobresalir y escapar del patrón asignado para ellas. A medio camino entre la ficción y la autobiografía, La trampa perfila los vicios de cierta política partidaria y las complejidades de un país, desde una mirada que no ha perdido vigencia. Magda Portal nos legó una obra de necesaria revaloración, lectura y difusión. "Portal es una narradora que no escatima en detalles y describe lo más duro a través de imágenes que el lector no podrá olvidar. Perturba e incomoda, provoca rabia e indignación. Nadie debería dejar pasar la oportunidad de leer esta magnífica y vigente novela reeditada por tercera vez. Portal es, sin duda, una de nuestras más valiosas narradoras. La trampa es solo una muestra de su importancia dentro de nuestra tradición literaria". Jennifer Thorndike , Revista Buensalvaje "La obra es una metáfora de cómo la política resulta una máquina trituradora de ilusiones al servicio de una cúpula. Su lectura es recomendable y su reedición muy acertada para rescatar una obra silenciada en su momento". Jaime Cabrera , Diario Perú21 |

But fate is cruel - I require his help to secure a much-coveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn't making it easy for me. I need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend. For every fake date . . . he wants a real one. Which means this bad girl is in big trouble. Nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly. My father would kill me, my friends will revolt, and my post-college career is on the line.

NOMINERAD TILL AUGUSTPRISET 2025 ”Patrik Svensson har skrivit ett poetiskt och helt unikt kapitel i den svenska arbetarlitteraturen.” - Nina Asarnoj, Kulturnytt Sveriges Radio "Den har redan en omistlig plats i den svenska arbetarklassens historieskrivning" – Kristian Ekenberg, Gefle Dagblad ”Jag kunde knappt slita mig från Patrik Svenssons bok om statarsamhället.” - Maria Schottenius, Sydsvenskan "Boken är inte en roman, men jag har läst få spänningsromaner som varit lika livfullt spännande och gripande som Patrik Svenssons grundligt researchade och överväldigande bok." Per Enerud - UNT ”Det är vackert, oavlåtligt spännande och förbannat bra skrivet.” - Carsten Palmær, Dagens ETC "Patrik Svensson berättar bättre än de allra, allra flesta svenska fackboksförfattare. Han vet precis var han ska sätta punkt, vilken detalj som är betydelsebärande och har en blick som är lika skärskådande på strukturnivå som den är medkännande när den vilar på den enskilde." – Johan Hilton, GP "Svenssons förmåga att med lätt hand återge komplicerade förlopp är som vanligt imponerande. Det är en fängslande historia han lyckats skildra." – Emi-Simone Zawall, SvD ---- ”Strax efter klockan sju på morgonen den 26 februari 1942 sprang en ung kvinna på en snötäckt grusväg vid Rosenhälls gård. Hon hade sömnrufsigt hår och bara ett tunt nattlinne på kroppen. Ingen tröja eller kappa, inga skor på fötterna.” Krigsvintern 1942 är en av de kallaste någonsin. På gården Rosenhäll i Skåne försöker drängen Elof Nilsson, hans fru Matilda och den stora barnaskaran klara sig från en dag till nästa. De är statare, och har rotat sig efter ett kringflackande liv präglat av umbäranden. Men det är inte bara kylan som påverkar dem denna vinter. Något större har tagit sin boning i den annars så blide och omtyckte Elof. En oro, ett förtätat moln i bröstet som ska driva honom till den ohyggliga gärningen på morgonen den 26 februari. Långt senare når delar av berättelsen om denna händelse Patrik Svensson, som bestämmer sig för att ta reda på vad som egentligen döljer sig bakom historien om Elof. ”Den barmhärtige mördaren” är en minutiös genomlysning av ett omskakande människoöde, men också en skildring av en grupp människor som alltför väl visste sin plats och förstod att den var förutbestämd och evig. |

Det är mars 1974 och dimman ligger tät över Vallentuna. Ett oroväckande stort antal rapporter från allmänheten talar om märkliga föremål på himlen, mystiskt pulserande ljusfenomen och ett svagt mullrande ljud som tycks komma från ingenstans. Femtio år senare återvänder den slitne och vanärade polisen Morgan Moberg efter en tids sjukskrivning till säkerhetspolisen med uppdraget att starta Byrå M. En specialgrupp för att granska kalla fall som misstänks ha lagts ner på grund av politiska hänsynstaganden. Byrå M:s första utredning leder rakt tillbaka till Vallentuna 1974 och det står snabbt klart att det fortfarande finns de som är beredda att döda för att sanningen inte ska komma fram. Närkontakt är första delen i thrillermästaren Anders Jallais nya serie. En mörk och nervkittlande deckare om mötet mellan UFO-myter och kalla krigets långa skuggor, inspirerat av verkligt material från svensk underrättelsetjänst. |

Mickey Haller behöver en ny riktning i livet. Han bestämmer sig för att ta sig an ett fall där ett AI-företag anses bära ansvaret för mordet på en ung tjej. Som företrädare för offrets familj blir Mickey tvungen att ge sig in i en värld där allt är nytt och det inte finns några tydliga regler eller något facit. Journalisten Jack McEvoy skulle inte ha något emot att vara en fluga på väggen under rättegången för att sedan kunna skriva en bok om fallet, och erbjuder därför sin hjälp. Men Mickey ser till att hålla honom sysselsatt med att plöja högarna av dokument som har med fallet att göra. Tack vare Jacks grävande hittar Mickey sitt huvudvittne: en visselblåsare som har fått kalla fötter. Det sägs att maskiner blev smartare än människor den där dagen 1997 då IBM:s dator Deep Blue vann ett schackparti över Garry Kasparov. Mickey Haller bestämmer sig för använda sig av ett liknande högt spel i rätten för att vinna målet över den mäktiga AI-industrin. Är det rätt väg att gå eller är Mickey ute på riktigt djupt vatten? |

78. Everything Is Tuberculosis - John Green
|
|||
|
Tuberculosis has been entwined with humanity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it. In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John became fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequities that allow this curable, preventable infectious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year. In Everything Is Tuberculosis , John tells Henry’s story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world—and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis. |

90. When the World Sleeps - Francesca Albanese & Gregory Conti
|
|||
|
The first woman to serve as United Nations Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territory conveys the spirit of a people through 10 unforgettable stories of resilience and humanity. Francesca Albanese is the most lucid voice against Israel’s apartheid policies in Gaza and the West Bank, a voice that has been heard around the world when it comes to speaking the truth about the Palestinian genocide. In the wake of October 7, 2023, and Israel’s retaliatory war, the renowned Italian jurist has become a lightning rod for her staunch defense of human rights.  Reflecting on her years living in Jerusalem and her personal and professional journey toward understanding the Palestinian struggle, Albanese pays tribute to 10 people whose profoundly affecting stories opened her eyes, from Hind Rajab, a young Palestinian girl killed by Israeli forces, to the remarkable Jewish scholars who acted as Albanese’s mentors: forensic architect Eyal Weizman, trauma expert Gabor Maté, and Holocaust historian Alon Confino. When the World Sleeps is a courageous testimony of the harsh reality that Palestinians face. It raises critical questions about the past, present, and future of Palestine: What are the consequences of the occupation? Where is a refugee’s home? In what conditions do Palestinians live? With the uncertain end of the war, will there be a Palestinian state? Will Palestinians have the right to self-determination, and will they be able to live in peace, free at last from the coercion of Israel? |

92. "Öppna era hjärtan" - Simon Sorgenfrei
|
|||
|
I vad som brukar kallas världens modernaste land blickar allt fler nostalgiskt tillbaka mot ett svunnet Folkhemssverige, men analyserna av vad som gått förlorat skiljer sig åt. Är det en etnisk homogenitet, eller den starka välfärdsstaten? Via möten med såväl flyktingar som med sverigedemokrater, med sekulära såväl som fundamentalistiska muslimer, skildrar religionsvetaren Simon Sorgenfrei de senaste femtio åren i Sverige. Boken sträcker sig från 1975, då svensk immigrationspolitik fick en ny riktning, fram till Tidöavtalet 2022. Målet är att skildra islam i det samtida Sverige och att fortsätta den berättelse om svensk integrationspolitik som han påbörjade med ”De kommer att vara annorlunda svenskar” (2022). Simon Sorgenfrei reser genom landet, från Bjuv till Kiruna, och undersöker ett politiskt laddat landskap, som forskare och som ganska vanlig svensk. Genom de personer och situationer som författaren möter längs får vi syn på den svenska nutidshistorien från oväntade håll. Det handlar om oljekrisen och de svenska rekordårens slut, om Palmes internationalism och om ändrade migrationsmönster, om Rushdieaffären, om Sverigedemokraternas födelse och utveckling, om kriget i Bosnien, skinheads, det fria skolvalet och privatiseringarna, om 11 september och kriget mot terrorismen, om flyktingkrisen och Tidöavtalet. Men också om vanliga svenskar som trots alla olikheter ofta delar drömmar och förhoppningar för sig själva, sina nära och kära och för platserna de bor på. Resultatet är en stor och oupphörligen överraskande berättelse om vårt land. |

At night, she's Charlie: a risk-taking daredevil looking for fun who finds herself chatting on a dating app with two anonymous hotties. Will Larsen may seem like the breezy boy next door, but his congressman father is a constant thorn in his side. After a scandal hits another Division 1 hockey program, Will's dad is determined to distance his son from it, hiring a journalist to prove how squeaky-clean Will and his team are. Which means the last thing Will wants is for anyone to find out he and his best friend Beckett Dunne - a laidback Aussie shielding secret heartache - sometimes share girls in the bedroom. When Charlie finally meets them in person and realizes she's been chatting with two gorgeous Briar U hockey players, things get steamy - fast.

*Now an award-winning Apple TV+ series starring Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas and Jack Lowden* 'The most exciting development in spy fiction since the Cold War' The Times Slough House is the outpost where disgraced spies are banished to see out the rest of their derailed careers. Known as the 'slow horses' these misfits have committed crimes of drugs and drunkenness, lechery and failure, politics and betrayal while on duty. In this drab and mildewed office these highly trained spies don't run ops, they push paper. Not one of them joined the Intelligence Service to be a slow horse and the one thing they have in common is they want to be back in the action. When a boy is kidnapped and held hostage, his beheading is scheduled for live broadcast on the net. And whatever the instructions of their masters at the Intelligence Service headquarters, the slow horses aren't going to just sit quiet and watch.

99. A Short History of Nearly Everything - Bill Bryson
|
|||
|
The ultimate eye-opening journey through time and space, A Short History of Nearly Everything is the biggest-selling popular science book of the 21st century and has sold over 2 million copies. 'Possibly the best scientific primer ever published.' Economist 'Truly impressive...It's hard to imagine a better rough guide to science.' Guardian 'A travelogue of science, with a witty, engaging, and well-informed guide' The Times Bill Bryson describes himself as a reluctant traveller, but even when he stays safely at home he can't contain his curiosity about the world around him. A Short History of Nearly Everything is his quest to understand everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization - how we got from there, being nothing at all, to here, being us. Bill Bryson's challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry and particle physics, and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. As a result, A Short History of Nearly Everything reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before. |
