Composed after the author's fall from office in Florence, it is a compact, unsentimental manual on how rulers seize power, hold it, and keep their states intact.\n\nBreaking sharply with the classical tradition that treated politics as a branch of ethics, Machiavelli argues that a ruler must be prepared to act against conventional morality when necessity demands it. He weighs whether it is better to be feared or loved, why appearing virtuous can matter more than being virtuous, how fortune must be mastered rather than trusted, and why a prince's first concern must be the strength of his own arms. Drawing on the recent history of Italy's city-states and figures such as Cesare Borgia, he illustrates his maxims with cold, concrete examples.\n\nPublished in 1532, five years after his death, The Prince has been read ever since as everything from a cynical handbook for tyrants to a clear-eyed diagnosis of how power actually works.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq85kmrhhg685esqbrjxk2e.jpg","LAA+QS}p0*0,=Hw_EiE$n7xExXNc",1959,176,[184],{"id":185,"slug":186,"name":187},"01kjq85kjwq0kr4s8fz4j2nx6g","niccolo-machiavelli-wdp5","Niccolò Machiavelli",[189,190,191,194,195,196,197,198,202],{"id":96,"name":97,"slug":98,"is_fiction":19},{"id":109,"name":110,"slug":111,"is_fiction":19},{"id":137,"name":192,"slug":193,"is_fiction":18},"Fantasy","fantasy",{"id":100,"name":101,"slug":102,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":165,"name":166,"slug":167,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":199,"name":200,"slug":201,"is_fiction":19},86,"Essays","essays",{"id":203,"name":204,"slug":205,"is_fiction":18},58,"Classics","classics",[],{"pace":124,"complexity":7,"audience":58,"mood":208,"themes":209,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[126,172],[],{"id":211,"slug":212,"title":213,"description":214,"primary_cover_url":215,"cover_blurhash":216,"first_publish_year":217,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":100,"authors":218,"genres":223,"series":238,"enrichment":239},"01kkfh03pke856d1a7v63xzd86","seule-dans-raqqa-br6q","Seule dans Raqqa","This book tells the harrowing true story of Nissan Ibrahim, a Syrian woman who defied ISIS from within Raqqa, the group's de facto capital.

Eleanor is the new girl: big, awkward, with wild red hair and thrift-store clothes, going home each night to a crowded house ruled by a violent stepfather. Park is a half-Korean kid who has learned to keep his head down and blend into the background of his working-class neighborhood.\n\nThey meet on the school bus, where Eleanor takes the only open seat — next to Park. Neither wants to be there. But over weeks of shared comic books and mixtapes, a wary silence turns into something that consumes them both.

Introverts, who recharge in solitude and think most clearly alone, are routinely treated as a problem to be corrected rather than a different, equally valid way of engaging with the world.\n\nDrawing on psychology, neuroscience, and history, Cain traces how this bias took hold over the twentieth century, profiles influential introverts from Rosa Parks to Steve Wozniak, and dismantles the myth that open-plan offices and group brainstorming produce better ideas than solitary, focused work. She also explores the biological roots of temperament, showing that introversion and extroversion are not just personality quirks but differences in how the nervous system responds to stimulation.\n\nQuiet is both a rigorously researched argument and a practical guide, offering introverts concrete strategies for thriving at work and in relationships without pretending to be someone they're not, while asking extroverts to reconsider how much talent gets lost when only the loudest voices are heard.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kjqtty3yhypdrn8331k12pv2.jpg","L4Gug:]T%~WW_ND%xuxa48PUiwt,",368,[706],{"id":707,"slug":708,"name":709},"01kjqtty464r4msva47v0hbp0y","susan-cain-1fat","Susan Cain",[711,712,713,714,715,716],{"id":113,"name":114,"slug":115,"is_fiction":19},{"id":161,"name":162,"slug":163,"is_fiction":19},{"id":156,"name":157,"slug":158,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":199,"name":200,"slug":201,"is_fiction":19},{"id":151,"name":152,"slug":153,"is_fiction":19},[718],{"id":719,"slug":720,"name":700,"position":122,"is_main_entry":18,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kqc38b4cbgpj8fbj5qtbhmje","quiet-08bo",{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":58,"mood":722,"themes":723,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[126,60],[],{"id":725,"slug":726,"title":727,"description":728,"primary_cover_url":729,"cover_blurhash":730,"first_publish_year":731,"community_rating_avg":78,"community_rating_count":732,"page_count":733,"authors":734,"genres":739,"series":752,"enrichment":761},"01kjq6xk9mse69v68x4zm8v1aa","all-about-love-w4hk","All About Love","In All About Love: New Visions, cultural critic and feminist theorist bell hooks argues that our society's confusion and cynicism about love stem from a failure to understand what love truly is. Rejecting the idea of love as a mere feeling, she insists that love is an action — a practice rooted in care, commitment, trust, responsibility, respect, and honesty — and one that cannot be separated from justice.\n\nAcross a series of clear, personal, and searching essays, hooks examines how a culture shaped by patriarchy, consumerism, and domination distorts our capacity to love, from childhood and family to romance, friendship, community, and spiritual life.\n\nBlending memoir, criticism, and ethics, All About Love is both a diagnosis of a loveless culture and a hopeful blueprint for change.

Everywhere he goes, the face of Big Brother watches from posters and the ever-present telescreen watches back, recording every word and expression. Even a private thought against the Party is a crime punishable by death.\n\nWorn down by hunger, surveillance, and the deliberate poverty of daily life, Winston begins to keep a secret diary and to nurse a quiet, dangerous conviction that the past was different and the truth still exists somewhere outside the Party's control. When he falls into a forbidden love affair with a bold young woman named Julia, the two carve out a small world of their own and let themselves imagine resistance. Their rebellion draws the attention of the inner Party and the enigmatic official O'Brien, and Winston is forced to confront just how far a total state will go to own not only a person's actions but their mind.\n\nGeorge Orwell's 1949 novel gave the language \"Big Brother,\" \"doublethink,\" \"thoughtcrime,\" and \"Newspeak,\" and remains one of the most influential warnings ever written about totalitarianism, propaganda, and the manipulation of truth. Bleak, exact, and unsparing, it is a study of how power sustains itself by controlling memory, language, and love.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kn0k43ee5bk97vhrnnsrfjtz.jpg","LLNtnM0ey@%MRjaexFt7{z-BOXn%",1949,"3.75",238,[801],{"id":802,"slug":803,"name":804},"01kjq7bthq3tev7x356jr612gb","george-orwell-8s8n","George Orwell",[806,810,811,812,813,814,818,819,820,823],{"id":807,"name":808,"slug":809,"is_fiction":18},28,"Dystopian","dystopian",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":503,"name":504,"slug":505,"is_fiction":18},{"id":199,"name":200,"slug":201,"is_fiction":19},{"id":137,"name":192,"slug":193,"is_fiction":18},{"id":815,"name":816,"slug":817,"is_fiction":18},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",{"id":291,"name":292,"slug":293,"is_fiction":18},{"id":203,"name":204,"slug":205,"is_fiction":18},{"id":732,"name":821,"slug":822,"is_fiction":18},"Science Fiction","science-fiction",{"id":511,"name":512,"slug":513,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":55,"complexity":7,"audience":58,"mood":826,"themes":827,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[172,242],[],{"id":829,"slug":830,"title":831,"description":832,"primary_cover_url":833,"cover_blurhash":7,"first_publish_year":834,"community_rating_avg":835,"community_rating_count":79,"page_count":836,"authors":837,"genres":842,"series":846,"enrichment":847},"01ksyr8qbm0gxp2r0t4nr7pyfe","strange-new-world-idiw","Strange New World","Carl R.
