The heroic story of the invention of antidepressants is a key part of the psychopharmaceutical turn. On Trial revolves around one of its pioneers, psychiatrist Roland Kuhn, who practiced in Münsterlingen, a state-run psychiatric hospital in Switzerland. Kuhn became famous for the 'discovery' of the first antidepressant, Tofranil, and more recently notorious for his numerous trials on often unsuspecting patients. Largely based on the extensive and previously inaccessible sources of Kuhn's private archive, the book delves into the early days of industry-sponsored clinical research in psychiatry. It examines how the clinic, patients, doctors, nursing staff, corporations, and authorities interacted in the trials. Conducted from the 1940s to 1980s, the Münsterlingen drug trials are historicised and situated in the period's evolving landscape of experimentation.

Certain events unfold, exquisitely and poetically, until we reach an illuminating passage: the precise moment of learning something important. With rare maturity for someone in her thirties, in the manner of Clarice Lispector, Lorrie Moore, or Grace Paley, these stories are a space for inquiry. Undoubtedly, this first book by Magalí Etchebarne is the best possible beginning to a work. It is also the book we all wish we could write someday. I Acevedo

Something that enhances the Reading is that the story is told in the first person and alternates voices in each chapter: each character is different from “normal” people and undergoes a period of physical transformation. This is a breathtaking adventure that will transport you into another universe.
Over a year, she goes from daughter to poet, and the verses become blows of memory of the last things but also the first. It’s about traversing “a rope over the precipice,” sniffing every corner like a hound, knowing that even then, scent trails run cold and that voices that remain only on a cassette may sound different from one’s own memory. It's to assemble a lexicon of gestures, moles, invented words, insignificant things, and bird food. This is how you cook a life, how you process legacies and silences: over a low fire, cooking the ghost wolf. Marina Mariasch
In the courageous and melancholic vein of Milena Busquets or the sensual insouciance of Miranda July, these stories dissect the rawness and horror of love and the violence of its contradictions: Those dark passages like those on a ghost train where mothers, fathers, and children wander. Characters who, in order to grow up, embrace uncertainty and disillusionment. Like a young sage, irreproachable and pious, sharp and delicate, Olivia Gallo tells what happened yesterday with distance. She pushes away the past, twists it, stretches it, tastes it like sour candy, allows for emotion or annoyance, but never enough to cry. Never that much. Magalí Etchebarne

A horrific atmosphere that slowly grows among this terrifying Black Forrest, full of eerie myths, all guided by a masterful hand and chiseled writing. Welcome to the everlasting terror of Adam’s Dream!
During the Cold War, American labour organizations were at the centre of the battle for the hearts and minds of working people. At a time when trade unions were a substantial force in both American and European politics, the fiercely anti-communist American Federation of Labor–Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL–CIO) set a strong example for labour organizations overseas. The AFL–CIO cooperated closely with the US government on foreign policy and enjoyed an intimate, if sometimes strained, relationship with the CIA. The activities of its international staff, and especially the often secretive work of Jay Lovestone and Irving Brown—whose biographies read like characters plucked from a Le Carré novel—exerted a major influence on relationships in Europe and beyond. Having mastered the enormous volume of correspondence and other records generated by staffers Lovestone and Brown, Carew presents a lively and clear account of what has largely been an unknown dimension of the Cold War. In impressive detail, Carew maps the international programs of the AFL–CIO during the Cold War and its relations with labour organizations abroad, in addition to providing a summary of the labour situation of a dozen or more countries including Finland, France, Italy, Germany, Japan, Greece, and India. American Labour’s Cold War Abroad reveals how the Cold War compelled trade unionists to reflect on the role of unions in a free society. Yet there was to be no meeting of minds on this, and at the end of the 1960s the AFL–CIO broke with the mainstream of the international labour movement to pursue its own crusade against communism.
