The Real Life of Sebastian Knight is one of Vladimir Nabokov's most autobiographical novels and it has often been observed that Sebastian's passionate affair with the femme fatale Nina Rechnoy is a dramatized extension of Nabokov's infatuation with Irina Guadanini. In this book it is shown that the novel also conceals another, secluded, love affair Sebastian had with a man, which reflects the main episode in the life of Nabokov's brother Sergey. By pursuing many biographical and literary references and allusions, and by disregarding the deceptive guiding by the narrator (Sebastian's half-brother), this moving story about Sebastian's silent love becomes brightly visible.

Voor veel mensen is sport onderdeel geworden van het dagelijks leven. Sporten heeft veel voordelen: fysieke inspanning vormt een goede compensatie van een passieve leefstijl. Daar staat echter tegenover dat in bepaalde takken van sport gemakkelijk blessures ontstaan. Bij ‘bovenhandse sporten’ zoals tennis, volleybal en zwemmen bestaat er risico op overbelasting van de schouder. Bij contactsporten zoals voetbal, ijshockey en rugby ziet men eerder schouderletsels door traumata. Schouderblessures worden dan ook regelmatig onderzocht en behandeld in de huisartsen- en fysiotherapiepraktijk.   Dit boek beschrijft orthopedische casuïstiek van veelvoorkomende sportblessures van de schouder. Besproken worden onder andere: glenohumerale instabiliteit, de schouderluxatie, labrumletsels, acromioclaviculaire bandletsels, spierscheuren en contusies.   Zoals gebruikelijk in de boekenreeks van Orthopedische Casuïstiek wordt ieder onderwerp besproken aan de hand van patiëntencasuïstiek uit de dagelijkse praktijk.   De tekst is rijk geïllustreerd met educatieve tekeningen en foto’s. De bijlagen achterin het boek tonen handige overzichten van testen en oefeningen die van belang zijn bij het onderzoek en de behandeling van de schouder. Het boek is in het bijzonder bestemd voor (sport)fysiotherapeuten, kinesitherapeuten, oefentherapeuten, huisartsen en orthopeden.

One Kind of Everything elucidates the uses of autobiography and constructions of personhood in American poetry since World War II, with helpful reference to American literature in general since Emerson. Taking on one of the most crucial issues in American poetry of the last fifty years, celebrated poet Dan Chiasson explores what is lost or gained when real-life experiences are made part of the subject matter and source material for poetry. In five extended, scholarly essays-on Robert Lowell, Elizabeth Bishop, Frank Bidart, Frank O'Hara, and Louise Glück-Chiasson looks specifically to bridge the chasm between formal and experimental poetry in the United States. Regardless of form, Chiasson argues that recent American poetry is most thoughtful when it engages most forcefully with autobiographical material, either in an effort to embrace it or denounce it.

In this compelling book, we meet a man who can't let anyone get within a certain distance of his nose, two kleptomaniacs from very different walks of life, an Internet addict who chooses virtual life over real life, a professor with a dangerous gambling habit, and others with equally debilitating compulsive conditions. Writing with compassion, humor, and a deft literary touch, Elias Aboujaoude, an expert on obsessive compulsive disorder and behavioral addictions, tells stories inspired by memorable patients he has treated, taking us from initial contact through the stages of the doctor-patient relationship. Into these interconnected vignettes Aboujaoude weaves his own personal experiences while presenting up-to-date, accessible medical information. Rich in both meaning and symbolism, Compulsive Acts is a journey of personal growth and hope that illuminates a fascinating yet troubling dimension of human experience as it explores a group of potentially disabling conditions that are too often suffered in silence and isolation.
