Gallops through the pre-mobile phone era with wit and chaotic energy.Sunday TimesA joyous rags-to-riches tale.Financial TimesNostalgic, salacious and bitingly witty. Joe LycettA delicious, neon-soaked fever dream.Munroe BergdorfI couldnt put it down. Annie Macmanus The defining book on the iconic noughties-era of pop culture in London as told by DJ Jodie Harsh, who saw, did and survived it all.Jodie Harsh arrived in London aged fifteen in 2001, heading straight off the train from Canterbury to her first club night at the Astoria. Intoxicated by this initial taste of city nightlife, she didnt leave the party for years, falling in with the right wrong people and exploring the sides of London best experienced under cover of darkness.Throughout the noughties, from Camden and Soho to Mayfair, from Notting Hill and Primrose Hill to Hackney Road, the city was a messy, beating, slick and sordid melting pot. New music, new fashion, new art, all came together in a mad, dizzying rush before - and during - the financial crash of 2008. Different scenes collided, exploded, were reborn and shaped across the city, at rapid speed.Harsh grabs us by the hand and leads us back to those decadent times: from the Astoria to The Cross, the Soho Revue Bar to Mahiki, Boombox to The End and her famous friends houses; to a time before social media and cameraphones were ubiquitous and a life without their perpetual scrutiny allowed for a more liberated, hedonistic and creative existence. You had to be there, and Jodie Harsh was. Every single night.

Rollos de papiro, tablillas de madera, códices de pergamino.

Papirologia, paleografia y filologia material se encuentran en este estudio no solo para entender desde distintas perspectivas a un artefacto complejo, sino tambien para revelar su atrapante historia.

Este é um livro para aquelas pessoas que sempre foram chamadas de sensíveis, intensas e dramáticas. Somos demais, somos muito, somos bastante, somos tanto. Somos pessoas únicas, e o mundo nunca vai entender realmente o nosso valor, muito menos o quanto nos importamos com as minimas coisas. Sentimos mais do que o normal para a atualidade, sempre expressamos alem do que "deveriamos" e exageramos tanto que nossa alma chega a transbordar em um corpo to minimo. Por isso, tentam constantemente nos podar, nos diminuir, nos moldar de acordo com o mundo la fora. Porem, resistimos. Ainda estamos aqui, e esta e a prova. Aqui esta um pouco da mente de uma intensa. Nossa "muiteza" e a mesma, e um dia eles ainda vo entender.
