I Was Amelia Earhart
ISBN: 9780679776369 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In this brilliantly imagined novel, Amelia Earhart tells us what happened after she and her navigator, Fred Noonan, disappeared off the coast of New Guinea one glorious, windy day in 1937. And she tells us about herself.
There is her love affair with flying ("The sky is flesh") . . . . There are her memories of the past: her childhood desire to become a heroine ("Heroines did what they wanted") . . . her marriage to G.P. Putnam, who promoted her to fame, but was willing to gamble her life so that the book she was writing about her round-the-world flight would sell out before...

The Elusive Embrace: Desire and the Riddle of Identity

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Hailed for its searing emotional insights, and for the astonishing originality with which it weaves together personal history, cultural essay, and readings of classical texts by Sophocles, Ovid, Euripides, and Sappho, The Elusive Embrace is a profound exploration of the mysteries of identity. It is also a meditation in which the author uses his own divided life to investigate the "rich conflictedness of things," the double lives all of us lead. Daniel Mendelsohn recalls the deceptively quiet suburb where he grew up, torn between his mathematician father's pursuit of scientific...

Burning Down the House
ISBN: 9781101911198 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) It begins with two girls: Neva, from the Caucasus, sold into the sex trade; and Poppy, the adopted daughter of a wealthy New York real estate family, the Zanes. As their paths cross and their fates intertwine in an exquisite high drama that blurs the lines between realism and myth, we travel with them from lavish weddings to the transglobal underworld; from London and New York to Laos and Istanbul; and we watch as the mighty Zane dynasty slips from greatness. Mendelsohn captures the emotional worlds of these characters with visceral immediacy, and transforms their private narratives...

Trzy pierścienie
ISBN: 9788397092464 / Polski / twarda / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) „Trzy pierścienie” to łączący różne gatunki osobisty esej o wygnaniu, opowieści i losie. Daniel Mendelsohn, amerykański pisarz i filolog klasyczny, splata rozważania o „Odysei” z dziejami trzech autorów-wygnańców (F. Fénelon, E. Auerbach, W. G. Sebald) i własną historią rodzinną. Tytułowe trzy pierścienie okażą się nie tylko przedmiotem, ale i klamrą tej niezwykłej książki. Warto się o tym przekonać, idąc za Mendelsohnem szlakiem wszystkich jego Odyseuszów.

Jews and the Sporting Life: Studies in Contemporary Jewry XXIII
ISBN: 9780195382914 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Volume XXIII of the distinguished annual Studies in Contemporary Jewry explores the role of sports in modern Jewish history. The centrality of sports in modern life--in popular and even in high culture, in economic life, in the media, in international and national politics, and in forging ethnic identities--can hardly be exaggerated, but in the field of Jewish studies this subject has been somewhat neglected, at least until recently. Students of American Jewish history, for example, often emphasize the role of sports in the Americanization of the immigrants, while students of Jewish...
