The President of Uruguay, José "Pepe" Mujica, has recently become a global icon. Among other things, he lives a notoriously austere lifestyle; eschews luxury and protocol like no other head of state; has legalized marijuana and same-sex marriage; has agreed to take in Guantánamo detainees and Syrian refugees, and more. According to Mujica himself, all of his conduct and ideology is rooted in his time as a guerrilla: as a Tupamaro.Beginning in the late 1960s, the uprising of the Tupamaros shook Uruguay and rippled across the Western world. Born in a middle-class, urbanized society, these guerrillas did not fight within the natural shelters of jungles and mountains, but rather in the concrete maze of the city. Infiltrating residences, bars, movie theaters, sewers, police stations, and mansions, the Tupamaros were everywhere and nowhere.Uruguay's under-resourced police had to face the world's most sophisticated urban insurgents. The Tupamaros employed diverse, though often contradictory, tactics: from hunger relief commandos and the armed propaganda that gave them the Robin Hood title, to taking hostages and descending into murderous terrorism. In doing so, they integrated women like no other guerrilla force before, and staged memorable prison escapes.This is the first complete English-language history of the Tupamaros and of Mujica, who under the codename Facundo was directly involved in many operations. As the president himself has said, the way to understand him as both man and politician is as a Tupamaro.
For Mother's Sake is the true-life account of a boy growing up on the Texas/Mexico border during the 1940s, of his discovery of sex, drink, rock 'n' roll and love in the 50s, and of California in the 1960s and a remarkable journey through a decade of radical social and political change.Along with Frank Zappa, he was a founder member of the Mothers of Invention, one of the most influential 'rock' bands in the history of 20th century music.

By this time, Jimmy has finally acquired mythical "ol' timer" status, particularly in Europe, where he was much loved and where he had, along the way, finally met the love of his life. He considered himself a "fortunate guy".Jimmy left an incomplete manuscript when he died. From 1995, the existing text has been supplemented with reminiscences and statements drawn from Jimmy's own website bio and from the many interviews he gave during this time. But this is his book and these are his words. Indeed, the book ends with extracts from his last written interview, given in Aug. of 2008, less than 3 months before he died.

Andover paused to consider his words, "I am not completely certain. Her brother attempted to explain it to me. He kept custody of you when you were a newborn. He told me a child born of two Meta can be born of Ether alone. You were not a child of two Meta, so Pandora gave you her mortal being to bring you to life." Andover's face revealed something Melody often questioned; his affection. The Pacretine continued gently, "Pandora gave you to me so I could care for you and raise you. She left me things to give you at a certain age. They are around this old palace somewhere. I will give them to you in the order Pandora instructed." Andover stood silently watching his daughter react to what she just learned. The Pramacretine stared at her palms. "So," Melody choked out. Her voice was thick with impending tears. "I am The Divine?"

Ce jeune homme vierge n'est pas le seul à avoir quelque chose à perdre... Kieran Frost, qui se décrit lui-même comme un vrai queutard, adore être célibataire. Deux ans après avoir emménagé à Seattle, il continue à profiter de son amitié - et plus si affinités - avec Rhett et Ethan, et de la réserve inépuisable d'hommes séduisants et disponibles qui arpentent le bar où il travaille. Une relation ? Très peu pour lui, il préfère rester loin des drames et des coeurs brisés. Et il ne se plaint pas de son mode de vie sans attache. Quand la fille de Rhett lui présente Alex Corbin, tout juste sorti du placard, Kieran se sent soudain intéressé. Après tout, les plus discrets sont souvent les plus chauds au lit. Mais Alex n'est pas seulement timide et réservé. Il est vierge, dans tous les sens du terme... et il n'a même jamais embrassé quelqu'un. Kieran n'est pas un bon professeur et son premier instinct le pousse à prendre ses jambes à son cou. Mais sa conscience l'empêche de jeter ce jeune homme naïf dans la gueule du loup, pour qu'un autre profite de lui. Il prévoit d'aider Alex à découvrir sa sexualité, de le faire sortir de sa coquille, avant de suivre sa route... chacun de son côté. C'est un plan parfait, infaillible... tant que personne ne tombe amoureux.

Flying pigs, retro hairstyles and hand grenades are among some of the images found in this book celebrating the art and craft of Cambodia's hand-painted advertising. The book introduces the signs, the people who paint them, and explores their links to Cambodian art, culture and history.The stories of the signs and their makers are inseparable from events in Cambodia over the last 40 years, notably the impact of the infamous Khmer Rouge regime. This crushed both art and commerce, the two spheres of activity straddled by these hand-painted signs. Their rise and gradual fall since this time takes the reader up to the current day and the uncertain future faced by this characteristic feature of Cambodia's streets.In considering the signs, the sign painters speak and share their thoughts, while others provide insights from the perspective of outsiders living and working in Cambodia. These include the author's reflections on his own engagement with the signs, and the stories they tell. This book is his tribute to this charming piece of Cambodian culture that has endured a turbulent past and faces similarly rough waters ahead.The signs featured in this book are given full English translations in a comprehensive notes section. A Khmer translation of the text is also available on the website, alongside a host of other bonus material including videos, additional photographs, and useful links: http: //kratie.ghostsigns.co.uk
