    The Pullback: Fortress Farm, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 514min
    The Solar Storms start slowly at first, a mere nuisance to modern society that enjoys electronic conveniences. But trouble is on the horizon, and world economies that once seemed invincible are beginning to feel the consequences of greed and neglect. America tries one last time to save herself, and turns to the Artificial Intelligence system known as GRAPEVINE to combat the interference of nature. But GRAPEVINE has her own ideas about what's best for the planet. The technology meant to save civilization forsakes billions of people. New cults and strongmen establish power while outlaws pillage. Just as humans have done for millennia, heroes and villains arise from the ashes of a great empire, struggling for the fate of those hanging on after the world's Great Reset. Their decisions will have ramifications resonating for generations. Can a determined group of small town farmers use their mechanical ingenuity to build a new country and spread the message of self-reliance and self-defense in time to keep hope alive? Join us on the first step in the journey of families facing the new Dark Ages. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ellery Truesdell.

    Postwar Modern
    This landmark volume offers a major reassessment of the art that emerged in Britain in the twenty years following the end of the Second World War: a period of anxiety, profound social change and explosive creativity. Published to coincide with the Barbican Centre's 40th anniversary it draws together the work of fifty artists, exploring a period straddled precariously between the horror of the past and the promise of the future.Spanning painting, sculpture, architecture, ceramics and photography, Postwar Modern will explore a rich field of experiment which challenges the idea that Britain was a cultural backwater at this time. Through new texts by Jane Alison, Hilary Floe, Ben Highmore, Hammad Nassar and Greg Salter, the book looks afresh at celebrated artists such as Francis Bacon, David Hockney, Lucian Freud and Eduardo Paolozzi, shown in dialogue with lesser-known figures. These will include those, like Francis Newton Souza, Avinash Chandra and Robert Adams, who were acclaimed by contemporaries but neglected in subsequent history-making; others, like Kim Lim, Anwar Jalal Shemza and Franciszka Themerson, are only now attracting the attention they deserve. Throughout their work, vital shared preoccupations become visible: gender, class, race and nationhood; the body, the bombsite, and the home. It is a period resonating strongly with our own: as the UK emerges from more than a decade of austerity and confronts the challenges of post-pandemic reconstruction, society is asking similarly deep questions about who we want and need to be.
