Download or read book The Survivors written by Alex Schulman and published by Doubleday. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTERNATIONAL BEST SELLER • A gripping tour de force in which three estranged brothers return to the Swedish lakeside cottage where, more than two decades before, an unspeakable accident forever altered their family and changed the course of their lives. "Takes you deep into an emotional labyrinth [where] you'll cry for these brothers. For the men they became, for the boys they were, for the innocence they lost. Brilliant, haunting and unforgettable." —Fredrik Backman, author of A Man Called Ove There is Nils, the oldest, who couldn't escape his suffocating home soon enough, and Pierre, the youngest, easily bullied and quick to lash out. And then there is Benjamin, always the family's nerve center, perpetually on the lookout for triggers and trap doors in a volatile home where the children were left to fend for themselves, competing for their father's favor and their mother's elusive love. But as the years have unfolded, Benjamin has grown increasingly untethered from reality, frozen in place while life carries on around him. And among the brothers a dangerous current now vibrates. What really happened that summer day when everything was blown to pieces? In a thrillingly fast-paced narrative, The Survivors mixes the emotional acuity of Edward St. Aubyn, the literary verve of Ian McEwan, and the heart of Shuggie Bain. By brilliantly dissecting a mind unravelling in the wake of tragedy, Alex Schulman reveals the ways in which our deepest loyalties leave us open to the greatest betrayals.
Book Synopsis The Swede Who Let Go by : Alex Epicure
Download or read book The Swede Who Let Go written by Alex Epicure and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A true story and travelogue, originally written as a diary meant for the author's daughters to read when they got older, to let them understand that he thought of them and loved them all those days they were apart. The story begins in a desperate situation where the author's children are taken away from him abroad by his ex. He makes the decision to sell and give away all his possessions to be able to rush after them, from Sweden down to Portugal. Without knowing it, the process of letting go starts a cleansing that step by step leads him into insights high and low. The author travels through beautiful landscapes in his trusted survival capsule, a campervan called Beatrice. Surfing glassy waves and skiing big mountains he encounters both adventurers, misfits and freedom fighters. Many in similar predicaments. The story about this epicurean journey has been let to be as it came to the author sitting in his blue campervan, with the experiences, encounters and great surf and ski happening to him only moments before. Maybe, just maybe, his liberation can set you free as it did him. - - - - - - - - - - - - Reviews "In Alex Epicure's strong, heartfelt, revealing but at the same time deeply inspiring and life-affirming book, you are given vivid descriptions of powder-fluffy slopes of the French Alps and challenging surf spots along the Atlantic coast, all while taking part in his ups and downs on this epicurean journey through Europe. His fluent writing let you travel beside him in his trusted campervan called Beatrice, taking part of unexpected encounters, existential reasoning and poetic moments. I can only say that the book invites to read in one go, and I highly recommend it to anyone nurturing dreams of vanlife, or want to take a break from the grey treadmill for a while." / Fredrik Ekblad, Editor in Chief at Österlenmagasinet "A story that is confident with itself and creates a world where you want to be." / Åke Högman, Swedish Author and Journalist "The Book by Alex Epicure, is a highly readable break-up novel. I read it during a hot summer day in August, once I'd started I couldn't stop. I'm a picky book reader. Growing up with books like Jack Kerouac's" On the road "and Robert M. Pirsig's "Zen and the art of riding a motorcycle", my expectations of an unknown debutant were not high. To my surprise the book surpassed my demands by miles, giving exciting perspectives on life. I can not help but recommend everyone to read it." / Lars Magnusson, Editor in Chief at Magasinet Kullaliv

Book Synopsis Scandinavian Penal History, Culture and Prison Practice by : Peter Scharff Smith
Download or read book Scandinavian Penal History, Culture and Prison Practice written by Peter Scharff Smith and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws on historical and cross-disciplinary studies to critically examine penal practices in Scandinavia. The Nordic countries are often hailed by international observers as ‘model societies’, with egalitarian welfare policies, low rates of poverty, humane social policies and human rights oriented internal agendas. This book, however, paints a much more nuanced picture of the welfare policies, ideologies and social control in strong centralistic states. Based on extensive new empirical data, leading Nordic and international scholars discuss the relationship between prison conditions in Scandinavia and Scandinavian social policy more generally, and argue that it is not always liberating and constructive to be embraced by a powerful welfare state. This book is essential reading for researchers of state punishment in Scandinavia, and it is highly relevant for anyone interested in the ‘Nordic Model’ of social policy.

Book Synopsis Egalitarianism in Scandinavia by : Synnøve Bendixsen
Download or read book Egalitarianism in Scandinavia written by Synnøve Bendixsen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-17 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses egalitarianism in Scandinavian countries through historically oriented and empirically based studies on social and political change. The chapters engage with issues related to social class, political conflict, the emergence of the welfare state, public policy, and conceptualizations of equality. Throughout, the contributors discuss and sometimes challenge existing notions of the social and cultural complexity of Scandinavia. For example, how does egalitarianism in these nations differ from other contemporary manifestations of egalitarianism? Is it meaningful to continue to nurture the idea of Scandinavian exceptionalism in an age of economic crises and globalization? The book also proposes that egalitarianism is not merely a relationship between specific, influential enlightenment ideas and patterns of policy, but an aspect of social organization characterized by specific forms of political tension, mobilization, and conflict resolution-as well as emerging cultural values such as individual autonomy.

Book Synopsis Obsolete Scandinavian Loanwords in English by : Magdalena Bator
Download or read book Obsolete Scandinavian Loanwords in English written by Magdalena Bator and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So far, no comprehensive study of the obsolescence of Scandinavian loanwords in English has ever been published. This book remedies that situation, and presents an analysis of the causes of obsolescence of Scandinavian loanwords in English since the 15th century. The study has mainly been based on the Oxford English Dictionary and the Middle English Dictionary. Over 300 loanwords have been selected, grouped into semantic fields and analysed. To account for their disappearance, reasons such as the rivalry of synonyms, the exclusive use in local dialects, the disappearance of the referent as well as rare occurrence or phonological changes were investigated.
