Antwerp
The Glory Years
2022 || Paperback || Michael Pye || Veltman Distributie Import Books
Even before Amsterdam there was a dazzling North Sea port at the hub of the known world: the city of Antwerp.

For half the sixteenth century, it was the place for breaking rules - religious, sexual, intellectual.
In Antwerp, things changed. One man cornered all the money in the c...

Is It Ever Just Sex?
2023 || Hardcover || Darian Leader || Veltman Distributie Import Books
A delightfully thought-provoking study of why we have sex, from award-winning psychoanalyst Darian Leader
'It was just sex.'
It's a familiar claim. But is it really possible?
The old idea that sexuality is a smouldering, animalistic force within us, desperate for release yet restrained by social forces, has little to support it.
