This first book from Chicago author Chris Ware is a pleasantly-decorated view at a lonely and emotionally-impaired "everyman" (Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth), who is provided, at age 36, the opportunity to meet his father for the first time. An improvisatory romance which gingerly deports itself between 1890's Chicago and 1980's small town Michigan, the reader is helped along by thousands of colored illustrations and diagrams, which, when read rapidly in sequence, provide a convincing illusion of life and movement. The bulk of the work is supported by fold-out instructions, an index, paper cut-outs, and a brief apology, all of which concrete to form a rich portrait of a man stunted by a paralyzing fear of being disliked.

Danske bandeord af Tue Stengaard er verdens første danske bandeordsleksikon.Man kunne også have skrevet Danmarks første leksikon over bandeord, men det lyder ikke lige så storslået. Og det ER storslået. Bogen er den første officielle og seriøse oversigt over disse tabubelagte vendinger, vi alle slynger omkring os, men aldrig rigtig tænker over. Eller officiel er den ikke - så kommer der nok nogen efter forfatteren, hvis han påstår det. Men seriøs er den.Til dels. Bogen tager i hvert fald udgangspunkt i fakta, for virkeligheden er nu engang sjovere end fantasien. Og det er fedt, for så kan vi både more os og blive klogere samtidig.

KNIVTID er 50 korte, morsomme, tragikomiske og genkendelige historier. Mange af dem handler om at fortælle historier, om historierne, der bliver fortalt, og om dem, der fortæller dem. Ofte begynder de roligt og tilforladeligt for derefter at tage nogle vilde – indimellem hallucinatoriske – drejninger og rejser ned i tilværelsens mørke kroge.Gerd vågner om natten og er nervøs for duellen. Måske er det alderen. Hun er blevet dårligere til at køre og dårligere til at huske, og måske er hun også blevet dårligere til at trække og skyde. Til træning har hun været lige så skarp som altid. Men træning er træning. At stå på en bred, støvet vej eller en mark med solen i øjnene og kun være sekunder fra at vide om du skal leve eller dø, det er noget andet. Måske er det frygten for at miste lysten der holder hende vågen. At lysten og glæden skal forsvinde. Men hun kan ikke tænke på det nu, hun skal sove. Hun lukker øjnene og forestiller sig at hun er i en stor skov og leder efter svampe. Hun ser ned i jorden og prøver at få øje på noget som kan ligne, under bregner og mellem mosset. Så er det pludselig morgengry, og hun er vågen igen. Revolveren er i bæltet, og bæltet hænger på stolen. Hun laver en enkelt kop kaffe og koger to æg som hun spiser med salt. Så er hun ude.

Amy Wilson, co-host of the award-winning podcast What Fresh Hell, takes a funny and insightful look at how women are conditioned to be "happy to help"--and what happens when things don't go that way. Amy Wilson has always been an ultimate helper. As a big sister, Girl Scout, faithful reader of teen magazines, personal assistant, sitcom sidekick, and, finally, mother of three, Amy believed it was her destiny to be a people pleaser. She learned to put others first, to do what she was told, to finish what she started, and to look like she had everything under control, even when she very much did not. Along the way, Amy started to wonder why doing it all had been her job. Still, when she tried to hand over some of her to-dos, no one was particularly interested in taking them. And when she asked for help, in return, she got advice: have a sense of humor, quit nagging, and stop trying to be perfect. Amy dutifully took on these goals--with varying degrees of failure--until the day she started to question if something else needed to be fixed besides herself. Hilariously relatable, Happy to Help is a collection of essays about how you can be the one everyone else depends on and still be struggling--how you can be "happy to help," even when, for your own sake, you shouldn't.
