See Rock City
ISBN: 9780874834567 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A winding highway, children fighting in the back seat, parents suggesting diversionary games and holding onto their own hopes and fears for the vacation ahead: it's not an uncommon scene. However, it is Donald Davis's genius that turns a lackluster family vacation into a week to remember. The 1950s-era plastic seat covers were not the only thing to leave a lasting impression. In her spontaneous (and desperate) invention of games like Cow Poker and See Rock City, Mother keeps the rules one step ahead of the back-seat contestants, until one-too-many choruses prompt a detour the family never...

Southern Jack Tales
ISBN: 9780874835007 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 217 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Donald Davis grew up in the mountains of western North Carolina hearing stories that most American children have never heard. He did not know he was hearing anything special, but he was, in fact, learning a number of stories that came to America through Scots-Irish immigrants. These stories were still told in the Appalachians during the 1950s and centered around Jack, a universal legendary figure who, by various names, is found in nearly every culture. Jack is that everyman who encounters trials common to all: earning a living, winning a mate, subduing tyrants and ogres of all kinds. Jack...

The Working Press
ISBN: 9781470046477 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Both the waning of America and the waning of the American novel have coincided with the decline of newspapers. Fortunately, a long, funny and sexy newspaper novel called The Working Press might yet save us all. The plot of The Working Press relentlessly unfolds at a third rate daily called the Boston Ledger-Transcript in 1980 just before the paper begins its long swan dive into bankruptcy. Typically, newspaper novels are funny books with sharp characters and The Working Press overflows with memorable characters and mirth. The publisher is a former slaver who detests reporters and frogs and...

The Twin Peaks Ambush: A True Story About The Press, The Police And The Last American Outlaws
ISBN: 9781533174925 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A year after the fact, the brief, deadly, biker brawl in the parking lot of the Twin Peaks restaurant in Waco, Texas on May 17, 2015 remains a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. Nine people died and nineteen more were wounded. Numerous news outlets "explained" the event as a "real life Sons of Anarchy episode." Until now, that has been as insightful as writers for numerous national and international publications have dared to be. From the very beginning, local authorities in Texas have tightly controlled the narrative of what happened in Waco that Sunday in May in order to save...
