Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A maxim closes like a trap. The reader walks in agreeing and leaves caught in something they had not consented to believe.In the tradition of La Rochefoucauld, Marcus Aurelius, and the great moralists of the European salon, The Undeceived Heart offers a contemporary collection of maxims on human nature. The salon has become the group chat. The courtier performing virtue for a monarch is now the person performing authenticity for a digital audience. Human nature has not changed; only its setting has.Across ten chapters and one interruption, Surinder Lall examines the disguises self-love wears, the costumes interest puts on, and the small fictions that hold the social fabric together. The book moves through self-deception, virtue and its imitations, love and its accounting, friendship and flattery, ambition and the career self, the performance of mind, courage and its evasions, fortune and merit, ageing and regret, and what remains when we stop deceiving ourselves about why we do what we do.A taste of what is inside: We are the most unreliable witnesses to our own motives and the most credulous audiences for our own excuses.Virtue is most eloquently defended by those who have most recently needed to defend it.A friend is someone who knows us well enough to flatter us convincingly.Most ambition is simply the fear of insignificance in formal dress.Success is usually luck that has had time to construct a convincing narrative.To see oneself clearly is not the same as thinking badly of oneself. It is merely to stop lying.Written in short, declarative sentences with classical economy, The Undeceived Heart is a book to keep beside the desk, the bedside table, or the place where you sit when you are most honest with yourself. It is not a comfortable book. It is, however, a generous one. It assumes the reader can take the truth.For readers of: La Rochefoucauld's Maximes, Marcus Aurelius's Meditations, Pascal's Pensees, Nicolas Chamfort, Lichtenberg's Waste Books, E. M. Cioran, and the School of Life essays.The undeceived heart is not a cold one. It loves with its eyes open, which is to say, it loves for real. In the tradition of La Rochefoucauld and the great moralists of the salon, The Undeceived Heart is a contemporary collection of maxims on human nature. Across ten chapters and one interruption.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Three weeks after her father dies, Mira opens the door of his study and walks into a country.The country has seven cities, each demanding a different kind of attention. A guide called Kael walks beside her. He says little. He sees almost everything.Mira is a cartographer. She has spent her career mapping what stays still. The Territories will ask her to map what doesn't.What follows is a journey into an inherited grief, the kind that doesn't arrive with the event but accumulates slowly, ordinarily, in all the years before, until you realise the distance has become permanent. The soft refusals, the missed evenings, the small adaptive distances a child learns to keep without meaning to.When Mira finally meets her father at the centre of the seven Territories, what they say to one another is the conversation neither of them had been able to have while there was still time.The Cartographer of Ash is a literary novel about cartography, inheritance, and the late discovery that some maps can only be drawn after you have walked through what you were trying to chart. Three weeks after her father dies, Mira opens the door of his study and walks into a country. The country has seven cities, each demanding a different kind of attention.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. EARTHBOUND is a book of wisdom for people who keep no church and for anyone who has ever wanted the consolation of scripture without the belief that usually comes attached.Written in plain, numbered verses, it gathers what the great traditions already knew about how to live, the Stoics and the Daoists, the Buddha and Ecclesiastes, Marcus Aurelius and Montaigne, the long human conversation that has been going on for three thousand years, and sets it down with the theology left at the door. What remains is the part that was always true: how to begin, how to work, how to love, how to forgive, how to grow old, and how to say goodbye.Across seventeen books and more than a hundred short chapters, EARTHBOUND moves through the whole shape of a life: Beginnings, Wonder, The Self, Others, Reconciliation, Work, Justice, Suffering, Loss, Time, Mortality, Wisdom, Songs, Doubt, Hospitality, The Earth, and Farewells.It asks you to believe nothing. It asks only that you pay attention. The verses are made to be read slowly, a few at a time, and returned to on the days you need them, when a friendship ends, when a body fails, when the year turns, when someone you love has died.The book closes with THE OCCASIONS: a set of readings written as poems for the great thresholds of an ordinary life: a birth, a joining, a birthday, an anniversary, a leaving, a reconciliation, an illness, a death, a burial, the bedside of the dying, and the turning of the year. A secular liturgy, in plain and beautiful language, to be spoken aloud by anyone at the moment it names.EARTHBOUND is for the reader who has stopped believing and still wants to live well. For the humanist and the doubter, the recovering literalist, the spiritual-but-not-religious, and anyone building a life of meaning without a heaven to hold it up. It belongs on the shelf beside Marcus Aurelius's MEDITATIONS, the TAO TE CHING, and ECCLESIASTES, taken, as those are best taken, as literature: human voices, speaking across time, about the only life we are sure we have.Read it at a wedding. Read it at a graveside. Read it on an ordinary Tuesday when the day has been long. Then close the cover and go and live, which is the only place the words were ever pointing.The world is in front of you, unspent. Look long. Look slow. EARTHBOUND is a book of wisdom for people who keep no church, and for anyone who has ever wanted the consolation of scripture without the belief that usually comes attached.
