This book was written for those who don?t despise children?s parties, Edwardian actresses, dancing classes and the scent of lilac over sun-warmed fences. Barbara Morant spent a crucial part of her childhood in the unremarkable suburban house which lends this novel its name. For her siblings, it?s merely a place to live; for her mother, it?s a symbol of the provincial drudgery of suburban living. But for Barbara, the house and the routines of those years are invested with a halo of happiness, and she yearns for them long after the family?s return to London. Her obsessive nostalgia, the pursuit of her childhood joys, lead her to attempt a recreation of the past. She leases the house, undoes the changes made in the intervening years, and moves in, only to find the past irretrievably changed and changed by her later knowledge and experiences. Lushly packed with domestic detail and references to popular culture, household products, advertisements, songs, d?cor, and pastimes, Evenfield provides us with a hilarious but surprisingly profound exploration of childhood and the way it?s remembered (and misremembered)

Catalunya: estat de la nació és la crida de vint-vuit autors que presenten una visió analítica dels antecedents i les circumstàncies que han portat la nostra nació on es troba actualment dins el context estatal i internacional, i alhora planteja unes propostes per recuperar l'esperança en el nostre futur i arribar allà on ens proposem. El llibre argumenta la necessitat d'escometre l'exercici del dret a l'autodeterminació com a única opció possible per a la millora de l'econòmica i el benestar de cada un dels catalans i dels seus descendents. Amb la unitat de tots els decebuts però esperançats ciutadans i l'aplicació dels ressorts adients, la renaixença nacional és possible. Hi col·laboren Ramon Tremosa, Heribert Barrera, Oriol Junqueras, Patricia Gabancho, Jordi Porta, Alfons López Tena i Sean Connery, entre altres.
