Writing as Lemony Snicket, Daniel Handler has led several generations of young readers into that special and curious space of being hopelessly lost, and joyfully finding yourself, in the essential strangeness of literature. The wondrous and perilous journey of the Baudelaire orphans sprung from the author’s own path, from his childhood discovery of Baudelaire’s poetry through the countless peculiarities of his pursuit of a literary life—abject failure and startling success, breakthrough and breakdown, concordance and controversy—lit along the way by the books and culture he loved best.

Els Visser overleefde een schipbreuk en werd daarna topatleet: dit is haar ongelofelijke en inspirerende verhaal over veerkracht en doorzetten. Nog één keer sprak ik mezelf toe.

De adrenaline schoot door mijn lijf. We waren vertrokken.

The year 2021 marks the 50th anniversary of the song “Timothy”. Banned by radio stations and called "the worst song ever recorded", its lyrics about cannibalism in a Pennsylvania coal mine eerily parallel the real-life Sheppton disaster. Still, the Billboard hit launched the career of The Buoys, later known as Dakota. Here is the story of an amazing American AOR band who, despite the “Dakota Curse” and the Coal Region Hoodoo, achieved acclaim abroad.

She asks what our privacy, our intimacy, and our own bodies are worth in the increasingly digital world of liking, linking, and sharing. Starting with Hodson’s own work experience, which ranges from the mundane to the bizarre - including modeling and working on a NASA Mars mission - Hodson expands outward, looking at the ways in which the human will submits, whether in the marketplace or in a relationship.
