”Kyllä ei usein ymmärrä.” Suositusta radio-ohjelmasta tutun oikeamielisen suomalaisvanhuksen purkaukset naurattavat ja koskettavat! Kertojana itse mielensäpahoittaja, näyttelijä Antti Litja. 

40 tapaa pahoittaa mielensä! 

”Kyllä minä niin mieleni pahoitin, kun aurinko paistoi.” Näin alkoi eräs Antti Litjan tulkitseman Kyllä minä niin mieleni pahoitin -kuunnelmasarjan jakso. Tämä äänikirja sisältää nuo viisiminuuttiset ensimmäisestä viimeiseen. 

Mielensäpahoittaja on 80-vuotias oikeamielinen suomalaismies, joka ehdottaa ystävänpäivän tilalle Pitäydytään omissa asioissa -päivää ja vastustaa moottoritietä, koska ”routavaurio on luontainen nopeusrajoitus”. Jouluna kinkun sijaan tarjottu kalkkuna pahoittaa mielen perin pohjin. 

Maailma muuttuu, mielensäpahoittaja ei. Onneksi parhaat asiat pysyvät: hanurimusiikki ja Kuusikodissa vuodeosastolla makaavan vaimon kämmen omassa kämmenessä. 

Tuomas Kyrö on antanut totisuudessaan hauskan, liioittelevan ja liikuttavan äänen sukupolvelle, joka teki eikä analysoinut. Se on järjen ja jäärän ääni. 

”Herrajumala, en ole mistään nauttinut näin aikapäiviin! Aivan mahtavia – ja täyttä asiaa!” 
Sari Ohinmaa, toimittaja 

Mielensäpahoittaja on kiitetyn ja palkitun Tuomas Kyrön (s. 1974) seitsemäs kaunokirjallinen teos.

A top conservative scholar reveals the Constitution’s remarkable power to repair our broken civic culture, rescue our malfunctioning politics, and unify a fractious America

Common ground is hard to find in today’s politics. In a society teeming with irreconcilable political perspectives, many people have grown frustrated under a system of government that constantly demands compromise. More and more on both the right and the left have come to blame the Constitution for the resulting discord. But the Constitution is not the problem we face; it is the solution.

Blending engaging history with lucid analysis, conservative scholar Yuval Levin’s American Covenant recovers the Constitution’s true genius and reveals how it charts a path to repairing America’s fault lines. Uncovering the framers’ sophisticated grasp of political division, Levin showcases the Constitution’s exceptional power to facilitate constructive disagreement, negotiate resolutions to disputes, and forge unity in a fractured society. Clear-eyed about the ways that contemporary politics have malfunctioned, Levin also offers practical solutions for reforming those aspects of the constitutional order that have gone awry.

Hopeful, insightful, and rooted in the best of our political tradition, American Covenant celebrates the Constitution’s remarkable power to bind together a diverse society, reassuring us that a less divided future is within our grasp.

From “one of our most thrilling and singular innovators on the page” (Laura Van Den Berg), a tightly wound, consuming tale about a 1950s American housewife who decides to get into the pool in her family’s apartment complex one morning and won’t come out.

It is an unseasonably warm Sunday in November 1957. Katheen, a college tennis champion turned Delaware housewife, decides not to join her flagrantly handsome life insurance salesman husband, Virgil, or their two young boys, at church. Instead, she takes a dip in the kidney-shaped swimming pool of their apartment complex. And then she won’t come out.

A riveting, single-sitting listen set over the course of eight hours, THE MOST breaches the shimmering surface of a seemingly idyllic mid-century marriage, immersing us in the unspoken truth beneath. As Sputnik 2 orbits the earth carrying Laika, the doomed Soviet dog, Kathleen and Virgil hurtle towards each other until they arrive at a reckoning that will either shatter their marriage, or transform it, at last, into something real.

"An outstanding work the [soccer] book of the decade." -- Sunday Business Post

Inverting the Pyramid is a pioneering soccer book that chronicles the evolution of soccer tactics and the lives of the itinerant coaching geniuses who have spread their distinctive styles across the globe.

Through Jonathan Wilson's brilliant historical detective work we learn how the South Americans shrugged off the British colonial order to add their own finesse to the game; how the Europeans harnessed individual technique and built it into a team structure; how the game once featured five forwards up front, while now a lone striker is not uncommon.

Inverting the Pyramid provides a definitive understanding of the tactical genius of modern-day Barcelona, for the first time showing how their style of play developed from Dutch "Total Football," which itself was an evolution of the Scottish passing game invented by Queens Park in the 1870s and taken on by Tottenham Hotspur in the 1930s. Inverting the Pyramid has been called the "Big Daddy" (Zonal Marking) of soccer tactics books; it is essential for any coach, fan, player, or fantasy manager of the beautiful game.

This title contains mature themes, including sexual violence. Listener discretion is advised.

Haunted by the loss of her cousin, Delilah has curated a world of revenge—playing judge, jury and executioner while, you know, searching for love.

Maybe murdering gives her the control she craves. Maybe it fills the gaping hole that Cedar left when she disappeared. Maybe this rage is ancestral, dating back to all of the Indigenous women before her whose cases were closed without much of a search.

She’s never been close to getting caught, but as a virus ripples through the world, devolving men into animals, she gets a little sloppy. Now she must ask herself, is she a monster too or is she simply taking her power back from the hands of men?
