Hun er kendt verden over, hun er en enestående sanger og aktivist, hun er et modeikon, og hun har vokset sig til noget endnu større … Beyoncé er et fænomen! Denne gennemillustrerede bog fortæller i ord, billeder og grafik om Queen Beys rejse fra sang- og dansetalent til globalt ikon. Det er historien om en sort kvinde fra Texas, der fik sin debut i showbusiness allerede som otteårig og kæmpede, til hun nåede en hidtil uset stjernestatus. Om hendes karriere – fra Girls Time til ‘Lemonade’ – og om forholdet til familien – ikke mindst Jay-Z, Blue Ivy og tvillingerne. Undervejs hyldes Beyoncés imponerende bedrifter, mens det skildres, hvordan hun opnåede at blive den mest nominerede kvinde i Grammy-historien og en af verdens rigeste musikere, mens hun indtager en plads på Time Magazines liste over de mest indflydelsesrige mennesker i verden. Beyoncé har sprængt rammerne for, hvad det vil sige at være superstjerne.

Depression er den mest udbredte psykiske lidelse på verdensplan. I En fremtid uden fremtid argumenterer Mikkel Krause Frantzen for, at man kan kende et samfund på dets sygdomme, og viser, hvordan depressionen peger på en række kriser i tiden: gældskrise, det konkurrencestyrede arbejdsmarked, krav om individuel lykke og selvoptimering. Med konstateringen af, at den psykiske lidelse ikke er den enkeltes problem, men vores fælles problem, udfolder Frantzen en kulturkritisk samtidsdiagnose og inddrager en række bøger, film og kunstværker som alternativ forestillingshorisont. Mikkel Krause Frantzen (f.1983) Ph.d. i Litteraturvidenskab fra Københavns Universitet, boganmelder på Dagbladet Politiken og ansat som postdoc ved Aalborg Universitet. Han har tidligere udgivet Lars Skinnebach – en monografi (Arena, 2013). Anmeldelser ”Relevant og stimulerende læsning for enhver, der er interesseret i sit samfund” – Weekendavisen "Mikkel Frantzens analyse af depressionen i bogen ’En fremtid uden fremtid’ er en af de mest vellykkede, vi har set. " – Information "Glimrende… Bogen bør læses af alle ansatte i psykiatrien i Danmark og være pensum for uddannelsen af alle psykiatere og psykologer, der fortsat hårdnakket tror på, at depression skyldes kemiske ubalancer i hjernen." ♥♥♥♥ – Politiken

Ny udgave af Karen Blixens blomster, der længe har været udsolgt.Karen Blixen var en sand blomsterdekoratør. Hun elskede at lave overdådige kompositioner med blomster, grene, ukrudt, frugter og kålblade m.m. i vaser, terriner, opsatser og skåle. Hun kunne bruge timer, nogle gange dage på at arrangere dem. Når blomsterdekorationen var færdig, kom hendes nabo, arkitekturprofessor Steen Eiler Rasmussen, og fotograferede. Det er hans illustrationer, der ledsager bogens essays om Blixens dekorationer. Og det er også en bog, der dokumenterer hendes kunst på dette område.
