本作作者菊池寛は、小説家で、劇作家で、ジャーナリスト、東京市会議だったり、大映の社長だったり。文藝春秋社つくって、芥川賞・直木賞も創立した。日本麻雀連盟初総裁をつとめ、競馬に入れ込み馬主にもなり、将棋も嗜み「人生は一局の将棋なり 指し直す能わず」と嘯いている。 頭の回転早くお茶目でいたずら好きで屈託なくむとんちゃく、大人になっても泥まみれで遊んでいる子供のような彼は、ねらいたがわず合戦とか武将も大好きで、ウンチクたれてるだけでは飽き足らず本作を上梓した。 秀吉の天下統一の最終段階。関東を束ねていて、信玄、謙信でも落とせなかった北条家、小田原城を武力ではなく財力によって落とした戦いである。この戦より武将による合戦より補給が戦の分け目を反映する戦に変化していく。近現代の戦争に通じる合戦であった。

ネルロはパトラッシュが前の主人に捨てられたときに出逢い、それ以来ふたりはこれ以上なく親しくなりました。

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

Story
“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Story
“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.
