ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Опыт в широком смысле - единство умений и знаний. Пожил, поднакопил, поделился.
Может быть, не слишком щедро: что забыл, а что не освоил до такого состояния, чтобы иметь нахальство предложить читателям.
Остается только надеяться, что в моих рассказах найдется для вас и полезное и забавное.
То есть то, что в жизни неразделимо.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Giovanna's pretty face has changed: it's turning into the face of an ugly, spiteful adolescent. But is she seeing things as they really are? Where must she look to find her true reflection and a life she can claim as her own?
Giovanna's search leads her to two kindred cities that fear and detest one another: the Naples of the heights, which assumes a mask of refinement, and the Naples of the depths, a place of excess and vulgarity. Adrift, she vacillates between these two cities, falling into one then climbing back to the other.
Set in a divided Naples, The Lying Life of Adults is a singular portrayal of the transition from childhood to adolescence to adulthood.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Герой романа "Свечка" Евгений Золоторотов - ветеринарный врач, московский интеллигент, прекрасный сын, муж и отец - однажды случайно зашел в храм, в котором венчался Пушкин. И поставил свечку. Просто так. И полетела его жизнь кувырком, да столь стремительно и жестоко, будто кто пальцем ткнул: а ну-ка испытаем вот этого, глянем, чего стоит он и его ценности.
4-е издание, исправленное.
Роман "Свечка" в 2015 году стал лауреатом премии "Большая книга", получив второе место, но ещё раньше он получил самые высокие отзывы литературных критиков и коллег-писателей:
"Зачем такая толстая книга? Из-за цены вопроса".
Андрей Битов
"…Валерий Залотуха публикует великолепный двухтомный (2000 страниц!) роман "Свечка", после которого его сценарии - даже "Макаров", даже "Мусульманин" - рискуют навеки оказаться в тени его страшной и насмешливой прозы".

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
«Весь мир — это вечные качели… Я не в силах закрепить изображаемый мною предмет. Он бредет наугад и пошатываясь, хмельной от рождения, ибо таким он создан природою. Я беру его таким, каков он передо мной в то мгновение, когда занимает меня».
Мишель Де Монтень, «Опыты», 1580 год
Повторить «Опыты» Монтеня было бы величайшей нескромностью. Но спустя 431 год можно отчетливо услышать эхо его правоты, наблюдая сегодняшнюю жизнь не очень пристрастно, но с определенной долей юмора. Таким образом, эту книгу и нужно рассматривать, как эхо — часто смешное и отчетливо звонкое.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
We'd like to introduce you to Elizabeth Finch.
We invite you to take her course in Culture and Civilisation.
She will change the way you see the world.
'The task of the present is to correct our understanding of the past. And that task becomes the more urgent when the past cannot be corrected.'

Monument Maker (White Rabbit)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Is it possible for books to dream? For books to dream within books? Is there a literary subterranea that would facilitate ingress and exit points through these dreams?
These are some of the questions posed by David Keenan's masterly fifth novel, Monument Maker, an epic romance of eternal summer and a descent, into history, into the horrors of the past; a novel with a sweep and range that runs from the siege of Khartoum and the conquest of Africa in the 19th century through the Second World War and up to the present day, where the memory of a single summer, and a love affair that took place across the cathedrals of Ile de France, unravels, as a secret initiatory cult is uncovered that has its roots in macabre experiments in cryptozoology in pre-war Europe.
Monument Maker straddles genres while fully embracing none of them, a book within a book within a book that runs from hallucinatory historical epics through future-visioned histories of the world narrated by a horribly disfigured British soldier made

Shadow Voices. 300 Years of Irish Genre Fiction. A History in Stories (Hodder & Stoughton)
скидки на товар нигде нет ;( это обычная* цена - 4936.00 руб.
|
ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
The story of genre fiction - horror, romantic fiction, science fiction, crime writing, and more - is also the story of Irish fiction. Irish writers have given the world Lemuel Gulliver, Dracula, and the world of Narnia. They have produced pioneering tales of detection, terrifying ghost stories and ground-breaking women's popular fiction. Now, for the first time, John Connolly's one volume presents the history of Irish genre writing and uses it to explore how we think about fiction itself.
Deeply researched, and passionately argued, Shadow Voices takes the lives of more than sixty writers - by turns tragic, amusing, and adventurous, but always extraordinary - and sets them alongside the stories they have written, to create a new way of looking at genre and literature, both Irish and beyond. Here are vampires and monsters, murderers and cannibals. Here are female criminal masterminds and dogged detectives, star-crossed lovers and vengeful spouses.
Here are the Shadow Voices.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Предлагаемое пятитомное издание уникально. На сегодняшний день это наиболее полное собрание сочинений Сергея Довлатова. И кроме того, в него вошли подробные комментарии профессора СПбГУ И. Н. Сухих. Тексты печатаются с учетом последней авторской правки.
Сегодня Сергей Довлатов — один из самых популярных и читаемых русских писателей конца ХХ века, и он «обречен» оставаться таким еще долгое время. Его произведения — та самая великая классика, которая, при всей своей значимости, остается интересной и близкой читателям, не зависимо от возраста, национальности, эрудиции или, говоря словами самого Довлатова, «степени интеллектуальной придирчивости». Лев Лосев сформулировал это качество довлатовской прозы так: «Довлатов знал секрет, как писать интересно».
В первом томе печатаются знаменитая повесть «Зона» и рассказы и повести 1960–1970-х годов.
Во втором томе печатаются важнейшие произведения Довлатова начала 1980-х годов —«Компромисс», «Заповедник», «Наши».

Against the Day (Vintage books)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Spanning the period between the Chicago World's Fair of 1893 and the years just after World War I, Against the Day moves from the labour troubles in Colorado to turn-of-the-century New York; from London to Venice, to Siberia, to Mexico during the revolution; silent-era Hollywood, and one or two places not strictly speaking on the map at all.
It is a time of unrestrained corporate greed, false religiosity, moronic fecklessness, and evil intent in high places. Maybe it's not the world, but with a minor adjustment or two it's what the world might be.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
A stunning bespoke gift package featuring an iconic design from the prize-winning artist, Noma Bar, eye-catching sprayed edges and ribbon. The perfect present for those who like their beauty with a bit of bite.
The Republic of Gilead offers Offred only one function: to breed. If she deviates, she will, like dissenters, be hanged at the wall or sent out to die slowly of radiation sickness. But even a repressive state cannot obliterate desire - neither Offred's nor that of the two men on which her future hangs.
Brilliantly conceived and executed, this powerful evocation of twenty-first century America gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's devastating irony, wit and astute perception.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
When I was in eighth grade my sister helped kill another girl.
For the Oliviera family – mum Carol, daughters Angel and Marie – autumn 2009 in the once-prosperous beach town of Ashaway, Rhode Island is the worst of times. Money is tight, Carol can’t stay away from unsuitable men, Angel’s world is shattered when she learns her long-time boyfriend Myles has been cheating on her with classmate Birdy, and Marie is left to fend for herself. As Angel and Birdy, both consumed by the intensity of their feelings for Myles, careen towards a collision both tragic and inevitable, the loyalties of Carol and Marie will be tested in ways they could never have foreseen.
Stewart O’Nan’s expert hand has crafted a crushing and propulsive novel about sisters, mothers and daughters, and the desperate ecstasies of love and the terrible things we do for it. Both swoony and haunting, Ocean State is a masterful work by one of the great storytellers of everyday American life.

Your ability to change everything - including yourself - starts here
Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing.
But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans, the lonely, brilliant, Nobel-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with - of all things - her mind. True chemistry results.
Like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later, Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America's most beloved cooking show, Supper at Six. Elizabeth's unusual approach to cooking ('combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride') proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn't just teaching women to cook. She& ...

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Peter Ackroyd at his most magical and magisterial - a glittering, evocative, fascinating, story-filled portrait of Venice: ultimate city.
In this magnificent vision of Venice, Peter Ackroyd turns his unparalleled skill at evoking place from London and the River Thames, to Italy and the city of myth, mystery and beauty. He leads us through the history of the city, from the first refugees arriving in the mists of the lagoon in the fourth century to the rise of a great mercantile state and a trading empire, the wars against Napoleon and the tourist invasions of today. There are wars and sieges, scandals and seductions, fountains playing in deserted squares and crowds thronging the markets. And there is a dark undertone too, of shadowy corners and dead ends, prisons and punishment.
We could have no better guide to this most exceptional of cities - reading Ackroyd's Venice is, in itself, a glorious journey and the perfect holiday.

And finally, the feminist lecturer Robyn Penrose swaps the industrial novel for a hard hat in Nice Work as she shadows the factory boss Victor Wilcox.

Carrie Soto is fierce, and her determination to win at any cost has not made her popular.
By the time Carrie retires from tennis, she is the best player the world has ever seen. She has shattered every record and claimed twenty Slam titles. And if you ask her, she is entitled to every one. She sacrificed nearly everything to become the best, with her father as her coach.
But six years after her retirement, Carrie finds herself sitting in the stands of the 1994 US Open, watching her record be taken from her by a brutal, stunning, British player named Nicki Chan.
At thirty-seven years old, Carrie makes the monumental decision to come out of retirement and be coached by her father for one last year in an attempt to reclaim her record. Even if the sports media says that they never liked the 'Battle-Axe' anyway. Even if her body doesn't move as fast as it did. And even if it means swallowing her pride to train with a man she once almost opened her heart to: Bow ...
