ROUGH STYLE: ARCHITECTURE, INTERIOR, DESIGNBy SIBYLLE KRAMERHardback
What was once considered incomplete and in need of repair, is chic and hip today: in new office buildings copper pipes are no longer hidden, but are exposed and artfully displayed against the raw formwork pattern of a concrete wall with ingenious lighting. Rough Style presents buildings and spaces by architects and interior designers who work out expressive and most rigorous design concepts. The uncompromising and exciting relationship in the encounter of innovative design schemes and raw unfinished states or traces of the past opens up new esthetic horizons, creating new standards of value.

AUGUSTUS: FROM REVOLUTIONARY TO EMPERORBy ADRIAN GOLDSWORTHYPaperback
Caesar Augustus schemed and fought his way to absolute power. He became Rome's first emperor and ruled for forty-four years before dying peacefully in his bed. The system he created would endure for centuries. Yet, despite his exceptional success, he is a difficult man to pin down, and far less well-known than his great-uncle, Julius Caesar. His story is not always edifying. However, the peace and stability he fostered were real, and under his rule the empire prospered. Adrian Goldsworthy examines the ancient sources to understand the man and his times.

THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNETS' NESTBy STIEG LARSSONPaperback
wind / Pinball includes Haruki Murakami's the two short novels, Hear the wind sing and Pinball, which is available for the first time in English outside Japan. In Hear the wind sing, the narrator is home from college on his summer break. He spends his time in J's Bar with his friend the Rat, listening to the radio, thinking about writing and the women he has slept with, and pursuing a relationship with a girl with nine fingers. Three years later, in Pinball, he has moved to Tokyo to work as a translator and live with indistinguishable twin girls, but the Rat has remained behind. The narrator finds himself haunted by memories of a past relationship but also by his short-lived obsession with playing pinball in J's Bar. This sends him on a quest to find the exact model of pinball machine he used to enjoy so much.
