Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction." She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income. In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail.

「彼等の義務の中に、半分の好意を溶き込んで、それを病人の眼から透かして見たら、彼等の所作がどれほど尊くなるか分らない。病人は彼等のもたらす一点の好意によって、急に生きて来るからである。余は当時そう解釈して独りで嬉しかった。そう解釈された医師や看護婦も嬉しかろうと思う。本当に嬉しかった、本当にありがたかった、尊かったと、生涯に何度思えるか、勘定すれば幾何もない。たとい純潔でなくても、自分に活力を添えた当時のこの感情を、余はそのまま長く余の心臓の真中に保存したいと願っている」「ことに病気になって仰向けに寝てからは、絶えず美しい雲と空が胸に描かれた」など、漱石のしみじみした心境を描いており、大患を境に「則天去私」の境地に達したといわれている。各所に、漱石作の漢詩や俳句が載っており、その意味でも貴重な作品。全編33節のすべてを収録。本オーディオブックは改訂新版で、ゆっくりと落ち着いたトーンで制作してあります。

Based on thousands of pages from Leonardo's astonishing notebooks and new discoveries about his life and work, Walter Isaacson weaves a narrative that connects his art to his science. He shows how Leonardo's genius was based on skills we can improve in ourselves, such as passionate curiosity, careful observation, and an imagination so playful that it flirted with fantasy.

It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin as the world watched in sorrow - and horror. As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered what the princes must be thinking and feeling - and how their lives would play out from that point on. For Harry, this is that story at last.

恋愛は幻であり、永遠の恋などは嘘の骨頂だとわかっていても、「それをするな」といい得ない性質のものである。それをしなければ人生自体がなくなるようなものなのだから。つまりは、人間は死ぬ、どうせ死ぬものなら早く死んでしまえ、ということが成り立たないのと同じだ。しかし何度、恋をしたところで、そのつまらなさが分かるほかに人は偉くなるということもなさそうだ。むしろその愚劣さによって常に裏切られるばかりであろう。そのくせ、恋なしに人生は成りたたぬ。ああ、孤独。 孤独は、人のふるさとだ。恋愛は、人生の花であります。いかに退屈であろうとも、この外に花はない。 いつの時代も男と女の関係は変わらないものなのかもしれません。多くの名言を生み出した坂口安吾の「恋愛論」。オーディオブックでお楽しみください。

In the second edition of his Very Short Introduction, Skinner includes new material on The Prince, showing how Machiavelli developed his neo-classical political theory, through engaging in continual dialogue with the ancient Roman moralists and historians, especially Cicero and Livy. The aim of political leaders, Machiavelli argues, should be to act virtuously so far as possible, but to stand ready "to be not good" when this course of action is dictated by necessity.
