What's a tiger supposed to eat?

Long Death of Adolf Hitler: An Investigative History
A fascinating exploration of why Hitler's death was only confirmed in 2018 Adolf Hitler has taken a long time to die, despite the lethal efficiency of the gun he put to his head in April 1945. Although eagerly anticipated around the world, there were no available witnesses to his suicide--and his corpse was not put on display. This created the perfect vacuum for myth and survival legends, while rival intelligence agencies and propaganda further confounded the investigations of successive historians. Caroline Sharples explores the aftermath of events at the Führerbunker in the first cultural account of this decisive yet elusive moment. Hitler's death was widely anticipated, and the news elicited a huge range of emotions as governments and secret services scrambled to verify what they heard. The search for proof of death led to an outpouring of conspiratorial thinking, and the final moments of Hitler's life have been reimagined ever since. This is an intriguing, unsettling account of a historical event we all think we know--and a sophisticated examination of how history is written. -
White Pedestal: How White Nationalists Use Ancient Greece and Rome to Justify Hate
How white nationalist thought leaders use ancient Greece and Rome to claim historical precedent for their violent and oppressive politics It is difficult to ignore the resurgence of white nationalist movements in the United States, many of which employ symbols and slogans from Greco-Roman antiquity. A long-established neo-Nazi website incorporates an image of the Parthenon into its logo, and rioters wore Spartan helmets in the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. These juxtapositions may appear incongruous to people who associate the ancient world with enlightened political ideals and sophisticated philosophical inquiry. But, as Curtis Dozier points out in this thought-provoking book, it's hard to imagine a historical period better suited to rhetorical use by white nationalists. Indeed, some of the most widely admired voices from ancient literature and philosophy endorsed ideas that modern white supremacists promote, and the social and political realities of the ancient world provide models for political systems that white supremacists would like to establish today. Part introduction to contemporary white nationalist thought, part exploration of ancient racism and xenophobia, and part intellectual history of the political entanglements of academic study of the past, this book reveals that contemporary white nationalist intellectuals know much more about history than many people assume--and they deploy this knowledge with disturbing success. -

Future Relic: Failures, Disasters, Detours, and How I Made a Career as an Artist
Inspiration is for amateurs. I'm a professional artist: I wake up every day and go to work. This is the mindset that transformed Daniel Arsham from a student scraping by in his Brooklyn studio into one of the most sought-after artists of his generation. In Future Relic, he breaks through the mystique of the art world and shows what it really takes to make it in any creative endeavor. From a childhood in Miami working with his first camera in the wake of Hurricane Andrew's devastation, to formative student years at Cooper Union in New York, to collaborations with Merce Cunningham and Pharrell Williams, to designing for Christian Dior and the Cleveland Cavaliers: Arsham shares the stories that built him and his work to where they are today. This isn't a romanticized memoir, it's a master class-a brutally honest and practical handbook for anyone pursuing an artistic career. As we follow his path through the highs and the lows, the breakthroughs and the rejections, we also learn the art of the grind: how to get a gallery, why you need a great lawyer, how to run a creative business, and why surrounding yourself with ambitious, successful people is non-negotiable. Inside, you'll discover:
- How to land gallery representation without connections or an MFA
- The business fundamentals that turned a studio practice into a global brand
- Negotiation tactics for licensing deals and brand partnerships worth millions

Sold outHafsa's Way
In this gripping novel by the author of the New York Times bestseller Amal Unbound, Hafsa pushes back against her family's expectations--and discovers her own power. Hafsa intends to be a doctor one day, so she's thrilled to be accepted into Bukhari Summer Science Camp for kids who share her dream. Her parents, however, do not share her enthusiasm. They don't support the idea of girls being doctors, the camp is expensive, and they don't want to send her off to the big city of Lahore unsupervised. But when her brother-in-law offers to pay, and he and her sister invite her to stay at their house instead of in the dorms, her parents grudgingly give in. Hafsa couldn't be more excited, but things get off to a shaky start when it immediately becomes apparent that she accidently signed up for the wrong program. And since she's the only one not staying in the dorms, her fellow students treat her like an outsider--and a country bumpkin. On top of all that, she's worried about her sister, who seems to have set aside her own career goals to please her in-laws. But Hafsa's way is to forge ahead, whether that means finding ways to pursue her medical studies, immersing herself in the climate studies program, or taking a pivotal field trip to the zoo--where an encounter with an elephant leads to several unexpected outcomes. It's not easy to negotiate being part of a community--and a family--that doesn't support her dreams, but Hafsa's never been the type to take no for an answer. She's determined to grab any chance she can for a better future, no matter what the odds are stacked against her.Sold out -
