Bergdorf Blondes are a thing, you know, a New York craze. Absolutely everyone wants to be one, but it’s très difficult. Honestly, it requires a level of commitment comparable to, say, learning Hebrew or quitting cigarettes. But first, a little bit about moi. The gossips call me a champagne bubble of a girl. I’m fluent in French, intermittently. I gave up England for Princeton to my mother’s horror. By day, I write articles for a fashion magazine. By night, I’m on the prowl for the ultimate accessory a Bergdorf Blonde must have: an impossibly rich man with a very large diamond ring.

A searing portrayal of Vienna's bourgeoisie, it begins with the arrival of an unnamed writer at an 'artistic dinner' hosted by a composer and his society wife-a couple he once admired and has come to loathe. The guest of honor, a distinguished actor from the Burgtheater, is late. As the other guests wait impatiently, they are seen through the critical eye of the writer, who narrates a silent but frenzied tirade against these former friends, most of whom have been brought together by Joana, a woman they buried earlier that day.

But the actual trophy, and with it the funds, hovers peskily out of reach. Neon-beige, with UFO-like qualities, the elusive trophy leads Corey, with their partner Drew and eight-legged companion Bambi Pavok, on a spectacular quest through their childhood in the Forest and an unlikely stint on reality TV. Navigating those twin horrors, along with wormholes and time loops, Corey learns—the hard way—the difference between a prize and a gift.

All over the city, they are watching: Black men paid to stand guard, invisible among the wealthy flâneurs and yet the only ones who truly see. From Les Grands Moulins to a Sephora on the Champs-Élysees, Ferdinand, Ossiri, and Kassoum find their way as undocumented workers amidst political infighting and the ever-changing landscape of immigration policy. Fast-paced and funny, poignant and sharply satirical, Standing Heavy is a searing deconstruction of colonial legacies and capitalist consumption and an unforgettable account of everything that passes under the security guards' all-seeing eyes.

Story
Sean goes to live with his mother in America, and it is far from the utopia that he had anticipated. He is thrust into an unfamiliar world of crazy kids, drugs, and falling in love with beautiful Mystery. It's just too much for a clueless 16-year-old to handle and he finds himself in the most precarious predicaments, only to be rescued at the last moment by some divine intervention. Let's hope the Hood Gods are merciful!

James Kingzett delivers a chilling depiction of a future overshadowed by "The New Dark" - an era marked by the collapse of energy transmission grids and power systems. As society teeters on the brink of chaos, Kingzett warns of the dangers inherent in our current energy landscape, advocating for a shift towards renewable sources such as geothermal energy. Using satire, storytelling, and some digs at the government, Kingzett creates a compelling story that exposes the need to change our centralized grid system or risk facing The New Dark.

Пафос и стёб, ностальгия по прошлому – и мистика внутри обыденности, фирменный юмор – и высший смысл, брутальный реализм – и городские легенды, слухи и анекдоты... Изобретательный стиль Ивана Охлобыстина в полной мере раскрывается в его новом романе, где смело действуют подростки из восьмидесятых, их обеспокоенные родители, изобретатели-алкоголики, высококультурные цыгане, известные рокеры, герои спецслужб в отставке, предприимчивые менты, терпимые священники, закаленные последователи Порфирия Иванова, воображаемые шпионы, фантомы российской истории, а также козел, кролик и человеческий мозг в колбе.

A man claiming to work for the CIA hires the Lints to find a shipping container of radioactive Agent Orange that vanished over fifty years ago. He insists someone is planning on using an army of drones to drench L.A. with the deadly chemicals before the week is out. The Lint Brothers enter a maze of bizarre suspects, from nefarious ad executives, to anarchistic Boy Scouts, to a toga-clad militia fighting for exclusive rule by women. The propaganda-obsessed society that seems to be running the world is probably worth looking into as well.
