Jon Savage, periodista experto en subculturas juveniles y autor del galardonado England's Dreaming: Sex Pistols y el Punk Rock, explora en Teenage. La invención de la juventud 1875-1945 la prehistoria oculta del fenómeno que transformó la sociedad contemporánea, la emergencia de la juventud como una etapa diferenciada entre la niñez y el mundo adulto. Es este un libro monumental, un trabajo titánico de investigación que arranca en 1875 y termina en 1945, en el momento en que el término teenage –o sus traducciones– se convierte en parte integral de la cultura popular, y en el que Savage ha sumado información de múltiples y muy variadas fuentes: literatura científica y popular, periódicos, publicidad, música, cine, moda, política, arte... Teenage. La invención de la juventud 1875-1945escruta durante siete décadas el devenir de la juventud y sus muchas y divergentes direcciones, y por sus páginas deambulan bandas de gamberros juveniles, boy scouts y románticos que buscaban la vuelta a la naturaleza, carne de cañón en la Gran Guerra, las flappers de los locos años veinte y su pasión por el jazz, los rebeldes del swing alemanes o la visión militarista de las Juventudes Hitlerianas. Savage hace un retrato que cruza generaciones y clases sociales, analizando sus contextos y sus experiencias, sus expectativas y sus sueños, sus éxitos y sus fracasos. Pero, además de los intensos vectores de creatividad y vitalidad, pero también de destrucción y alienación, que tensan a esta juventud, Savage no pierde de vista las presiones del mundo adulto para moldear y orientar estos vectores, sea hacia un consumismo rampante sea como soldados para nuevas guerras. Las páginas deTeenage. La invención de la juventud 1875-1945 están llenas de música, de jazz y ragtime y swing, y sus historias se suceden rápidas y llenas de pasión, cómicas o dolorosas, pero siempre conmovedoras. Las experiencias personales se anudan con el análisis global de un tiempo cuajado de conflictos, tejiendo un fresco caleidoscópico de cultura popular e historia social. Una exuberante crónica del nacimiento de la juventud.

After several years of absence, a man reappears in the life of a woman and their young son. Intent on being a family again, he drives them to Les Roches, a dilapidated house in the mountains, where the man grew up with his own ruthless father. While the mother watches the passing days with apprehension, the son discovers the enchantment of nature, savage and bewitching. As the father's hold over them intensifies, the return to their previous life and home seems increasingly impossible. Haunted by his past and consumed with jealousy, the man slowly sinks into madness and his son has no choice but to challenge his father in an attempt to save something of their humanity. Written in flawless, cinematic prose and brilliantly translated by Frank Wynne, The Son of Man is an exceptional novel of nature and wildness that traces how violence is inherited from one generation to the next, and a blistering examination of how families fold together and break apart under duress.

In 1992 Bosnia descended into a savage and bitter civil war, which by 1995 had claimed over a quarter of a million lives. Following the Dayton Peace Agreement between the warring Bosnian Serbs, Muslims and Croats, NATO began its first land operation, taking over from the UN Protection Force. With a total of only 200 men, a British battlegroup was charged to enforce the peace in a 100km area, through which wound a front line separating the territory of the Bosnian Muslims from that of the Bosnian Serb forces. In this updated edition of the acclaimed book A Cold War, Brigadier Ben Barry has produced the definitive account of the British Army's dangerous and groundbreaking operations in Bosnia.

Viye Raines' novel The Levite's Concubine is an engrossing retelling of the most bizarre and savage chapter in the Hebrew Bible — Judges Chapter 19.Told with striking historical detail, one of the most ancient parts of the Old Testament comes alive, opening with the concubine fleeing her master and closing with the her startling and unforgettable destruction.Affecting and intimate, unrestrained and ghastly, The Levite's Concubine combines rich storytelling with an original insight into Biblical history and women's roles in a compelling time and place — about 1000 years BCE — in the land that would become Israel.Although the story told in Judges Chapter 19 is violent, it ultimately takes our attention because of its treatment of women. Not only does it feature as its central act a vicious molestation of an innocent woman, it is also a part of a religious text. This text, our Hebrew Bible, is not just central to Jewish and Christian civilisation, but also to their worship, and is held by nearly a third of the people of the planet to be spiritually significant.

And Rachel can't help but hunger for his touch. But she's also heard the legend of the wolf who walked as a man and wonders if Lobo is more than just a man—his power is undeniable. Though the ranch hands respect him and her little boy adores him, Rachel senses there will come a final day of reckoning between the hunter and the hunted—and a night when she will know the passion as savage as a wolf.
