Story
Phineas G. Nanson, a disenchanted graduate student, decides to immerse himself in the messiness of ‘real life’ by writing a biography of a great biographer. But a ‘whole life’ is hard to find. Everywhere he looks he finds fragments and gaps. Phineas’ mind tracks the journeys of his subjects from the deserts of Africa to the maelstroms of the Arctic. Along the way he meets others building wholes from bits and pieces - taxonomists, ecologists, even travel agents - and begins to puzzle out his future. But who will guide him from the labyrinth and back into his own life?

Story
In Morpho Eugenia, an explorer realises that the behaviour of the people around him is alarmingly similar to that of the insects he studies. In The Conjugal Angel, curious individuals - some fictional, others drawn from history - gather to connect with the spirit world. Throughout both, Byatt examines the eccentricities of the Victorian era, weaving fact and fiction, reality and romance, science and faith into a sumptuous, magical tapestry.

Story
Each story is in some way inspired by a painting of Henri Matisse, each is also about the intimate connection between seeing and feeling - about the ways in which a glance we meant to be casual may suddenly call forth the deepest reserves of our being. Their subjects' lives unravel from simple beginnings - a trip to the hair dresser, a cleaning woman's passion for knitting, lunch in a Chinese restaurant but gradually the veneer of ordinariness is peeled back to expose pain, reveal desire, or express the intensity of joy in colour and creation.

Novellerne har det fælles præg, at de handler om det uventede, det forandrede. Om den menneskelige psykologi, om alt det der foregår under den kontrollerede overflade. De foregår i et realistisk univers, men med fantastiske og surreelle indslag, som er en dejlig udfordring for læserens ordglæde, fantasi og fortolknings- og forestillingsevne.

Story
To fantastiske fortællinger fra victoriatidens England, der kombinerer filosofi og underholdning. I den første fortælling tager en ung naturforsker ophold hos en tidligere præst og amatørbiolog, der er levende optaget af tidens brændende spørgsmål. På underfundig vis trækker Byatt en ironisk parallel mellem husets myldrende liv og myretuens, eller bistadets.

Titelnovellen handler om en kvindelig narratolog, der samler på eventyr. På en forelæsningsrejse i Tyrkiet forærer en ven hende en flaske af noget meget specielt glas, kendt som "nattergalens øje". Hun tager flasken med hjem på hotelværelset og snart efter befinder der sig en kæmpestor, charmerende, sandeltræsduftende tyrkisk djinn hos hende. De fortæller hinanden historier: han om adskillige årtusinder med erotisk tant og fjas, hun om sociale forskelle i nutidens England.

Tre noveller, der på hver sin måde er hjemøgt af den franske maler Henri Matisses ånd. Udgangspunkterne er enkle, dagligdags episoder – en tur til damefrisøren, en rengøringskones lidenskabelige forhold til det at strikke, middag på en kinesisk restaurant. Hverdagen forandres, låget løftes af det almindelige og afslører smerte, begær, længsel og glæde ved farver og kunstnerisk skaben.

A scholar pursues an elusive biographer, stumbling upon buried fragments of distant lives; a woman walks out of her previous existence and encounters an ice-blond stranger from a secretive world; a schoolgirl draws a blood-filled picture of Jael; a swimming pool reveals a beauteous monster in its depths. The settings range from the heat of Provence in summer to the cold forests of Scandinavia, from chalk-strewn classrooms to herb-scented hillsides, from suburban streets to rocky wilds.

Story
Leaves rustle underfoot in a dark wood: two middle-aged women walk into a forest, as they did when they were girls, confronting their fears and memories and the strange thing they saw in their childhood - or thought they saw - so long ago. A distinguished obstetrician and young woman artist find they have sharply contrasting ideas about body parts, birth and death; an innocent member of an evening class harbours unexpected view on 'raw material'. The stories in this marvellous collection are by turns funny, spooky, sparkling and haunting.

The constant theme running through this collection of short stories, the first collection by A. S. Byatt, is that of repetition, taking the form of family patterns recurring across generations, the return of the past in the form of ghosts and the disruptive force of family stories. A. S. Byatt was the winner of the Silver Pen Award for her novel Still Life (1986). Her other novels include Shadow of a Sun, The Game (1983) and The Virgin in the Garden (1981).

Story
"Børnenes bog" er en overvældende roman om England i perioden 1885-1919, et stort, episk-historisk tidsbillede af den "edwardianske sommer": den idylliske, gyldne periode, der endte i Første Verdenskrigs blodige kaos. Det er en roman, der afslører de spændinger under overfladen, som idyllen skjulte, og som bragte død og undergang med sig, især for den generation af børn, der voksede op omkring århundredskiftet.

Det viser sig imidlertid, at Destry-Scoles førte en usædvanlig anonym tilværelse, og det eneste, manden har efterladt sig, er et syndigt rod af løsrevne notater om andre berømte mænd.

Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.

Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions—and feel incredible today—is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function—the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our wellbeing.

Haidt has spent his career speaking wisdom and truth into the most difficult landscapes—communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the perfect storm contributing to a public health emergency for Gen Z.

But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.
