Britt-Marie Was Here (Sceptre)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
The number 1 European bestseller by the author of New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon A Man Called Ove, Britt-Marie was Here is a funny, poignant and uplifting tale of love, community, and second chances.
For as long as anyone can remember, Britt-Marie has been an acquired taste. It's not that she's judgemental, or fussy, or difficult - she just expects things to be done in a certain way. A cutlery drawer should be arranged in the right order, for example (forks, knives, then spoons). We're not animals, are we?
But behind the passive-aggressive, socially awkward, absurdly pedantic busybody is a woman who has more imagination, bigger dreams and a warmer heart than anyone around her realizes.
So when Britt-Marie finds herself unemployed, separated from her husband of 20 years, left to fend for herself in the miserable provincial backwater that is Borg - of which the kindest thing one can say is that it has a road going through it - and somehow tasked with runn ...

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Книга 1
В 2000 году "Текст" издал роман Светланы Шенбрунн "Розы и хризантемы", который в том же году вошел в финал премии "Букер".
Многоплановый, насыщенный неповторимыми приметами времени, роман Светланы Шенбрунн посвящен первым послевоенным годам. Его герои - обитатели московских коммуналок, люди с разными взглядами, привычками и судьбами, но с общими надеждами на будущее. Это история поколения, из которого вышли шестидесятники.
И вот - долгожданное переиздание, о котором нас не раз спрашивали читатели. И не просто переиздание, а с продолжением.
Автобиографический роман весь соткан из диалогов. Писательница почти никогда их не комментирует. Живость общения персонажей, мастерский монтаж сцен, эпизодов, этюдов… В книге смешное и грустное, комедийное и трагичное перемежаются, соседствуют, как неразлучны две вечные дамы - жизнь и смерть, как розы (символ любви) и хризантемы, которыми провожают человека в последний путь.
"МК", 25. 11. 2000

Помимо прижизненных книг здесь собраны неподцензурные самиздатовские сборники, стихотворения из отдельных рукописей и машинописей, прочие плоды архивных разысканий, начатых ещё при жизни Лимонова, и законченных только сейчас.

Three Moments of an Explosion. Stories (Picador)

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
The multi-award-winning China Mieville has been called 'the equal of David Mitchell or Zadie Smith' (Scotland on Sunday), a writer whose 'inventiveness and precision is awesome' (Independent), and who writes with 'an imagination of immense power' (Guardian). In these twenty-eight short stories, glistening icebergs float above urban horizons; a burning stag runs wild through the city; the ruins of industry emerge unsteadily from the sea; and the abandoned generations in a decayed space-elevator look not up at the stars but down at the Earth. Ranging from portraits of childhood to chilling ghost stories, from dystopian visions to poignant evocations of uncanny love, with beautiful prose and melancholy wit, Three Moments of an Explosion is a breath-taking collection that poses searching questions of what it is to be human in an unquiet world. It is a humane and unsentimental investigation of our society, our world, and ourselves.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
In this luminous novel about a modern Don Juan, John Berger relates the story of G., a young man forging an energetic sexual career in Europe during the early years of the last century as Europe teeters on the brink of war.
With profound compassion, Berger explores the hearts and minds of both men and women, and what happens during sex, to reveal the conditions of the libertine's success: his essential loneliness, the quiet cumulation in each of his sexual experiences of all of those that precede it, the tenderness that infuses even the briefest of his encounters, and the way women experience their own extraordinariness through their liaisons with him. Set against the turbulent backdrop of Garibaldi's attempt to unite Italy, the failed revolution of Milanese workers in 1898, the Boer War and the dramatic first flight across the Alps, G. is a brilliant novel about the search for intimacy in the turmoil of history.
