With the two girls torn apart and each in great peril, will they reunite at last, or have their destinies diverged forever? Literary ombudsman John Crace never met an important book he didnt like to deconstruct. From Salman Rushdie to John Grisham, Crace retells the big books in just bitingly satirical words, pointing his pen at the clunky plots, stylistic tics and pretensions to Big Ideas, as he turns publishers golden dream books into dross.
In the grand tradition of Tom Lehrer and Stan Freberg, Crace takes the books that produce the most media hype and retells each story in its authors inimitable style.
Byatt, John LeCarre, Michael Crichton and Ian McEwan all emerge delightfully scathed in this book that makes it easy to talk knowingly about books youve never bothered to read or, for that matter, should have. But what does the regime in North Korea actually want?
Is Kim Jong-un truly the mad cartoon villain that the media love to portray? Without being an apologist for the oppressive North Korean government, T. Coles exposes the propaganda war waged against it, revealing the truth behind the simplistic news headlines. It has even committed to a no-first-use policy for nuclear weapons — something the US itself will not do. Far from being a state in self-imposed hermitage, North Korea has diplomatic relations with over one hundred countries.
It is the US, argues Coles, that deliberately seeks to isolate the regime as part of its wider geostrategic goals in the Asia Pacific. In building up its own armed forces in the region the so-called Asia Pivot , the US is playing a dangerous game of nuclear brinkmanship.
Fire and Fury provides a sharp, succinct briefing for anyone seeking a broader, less distorted and more balanced understanding of current events, whilst offering solutions for ordinary citizens who wish to further the cause of peace.

Fire and Fury is a recollection of his profound journey-from humble beginnings in Madhya Pradesh to the highest office of the Chairman, AEC-through different events and watershed moments in the country's atomic energy programme over the past forty-five years.
It chronicles the many inflection points of the programme as seen through the eyes of one of the chief architects of that journey.

Bestselling author of Fire and Fury and chronicler of the Trump White House Michael Wolff dissects more of the major monsters, media whores, and vainglorious figures of our time. His scalpel opens their lives, careers, and always equivocal endgames with the same vividness and wit he brought to his disemboweling of the former president.
These brilliant and biting profiles form a mesmerizing portrait of the hubris, overreach, and nearly inevitable self-destruction of some of the most famous faces from the Clinton era through the Trump years. When the mighty fall, they do it with drama and with a dust cloud of gossip. Ultimately, this is an examination of how the quest for fame, notoriety, and power became the driving force of culture and politics, the drug that alters all public personalities.
And how their need, their desperation, and their ruthlessness became the toxic grease that keeps the world spinning. The first biography of Rodrigo Duterte, the murderous, unpredictable president of the Philippines, whose war on drugs has seen thousands of people killed in cold blood.

Analyzing a range of whistleblowing episodes, from the corrupt Revolutionary War commodore Esek Hopkins whose dismissal led in to the first whistleblower protection law to Edward Snowden, to the dishonesty of Donald Trump, Allison Stanger reveals the centrality of whistleblowing to the health of American democracy.
She also shows that with changing technology and increasing militarization, the exposure of misconduct has grown more difficult to do and more personally costly for those who do it—yet American freedom, especially today, depends on it.
