Welcome to Graywater, a river town taught to prize calm. When a state "Harmony" initiative arrives with friendly stickers, listening walls, and predictive kiosks, the conveniences feel harmlessuntil doors act like checkpoints, benches become "standing bars," and kindness requires tokens. A librarian with a pencil ledger, a mechanic with a rolling stool, a cafeteria worker who feeds people before forms, and a reluctant administrator who once signed the wrong memos learn to resist with ordinary tools: chairs, house rules taped at jaw height, and the stubborn claim that a door is a commons. As audits, algorithms, and budget tricks escalate, the town invents humane policy in publicunplugging devices, publishing errors in chalk, and choosing consent over compliance. Speak with Care is a civic fable about soft power, community resilience, and the practice of freedom: if the map sings, bring chairs; install supports immediately, verify later, in situ. Ducks allowed. From courtrooms to porches and library foyers to the soup line, Graywater makes rights muscle memory: benches as nodes, forecasts ask for chairsnot closuresand a blackout proves the town doesnt need dashboards. It sticks.

Everyday life always offers a variety of colorful and gray to black experiences, which usually have some kind of influence on life and are thus reflected in these stories and poems. And because life is so infinitely diverse, the whole thing is called "Allerlei" (All Sorts).I owe my lines to the diversity of life, my inspirations and ideas, which were simply given to me along with the ability to write poetry.These lines are intended to bring a smile, joy, and laughter to the faces of some of my contemporaries, while also giving them something to think about and perhaps even prompting them to rethink things.

Tras Tienes que mirar y La glándula de Ícaro, Anna Starobinets escribe su novela más deslumbrante y ambiciosa, sin duda su mejor obra hasta la fecha.

En este refugio imposible se encuentra Maxim Kronin, antiguo artista de circo dotado de facultades extrasensoriales, fugado de un gulag solo para verse atrapado en un nuevo escenario de pesadilla. Humanos y seres miticos por igual quedan enredados en la busqueda de un arma biologica legendaria y en la red de una conspiracion totalitaria que extiende su sombra mas alla del fin oficial de la contienda.Un sobrecogedor viaje al corazon de las tinieblas que seducira por igual a los amantes de la fantasia oscura y a los lectores de ficcion historica. Una epopeya hechizante que marca un hito en la narrativa contemporanea. Un periplo visual e imaginativo donde cada personaje encontrara aquello que merece: algunos el amor y otros la muerte.

The book delves deep into what the Bible has to say, and presents in a clear way its relevance and even its necessity in todays chaotic world.
