In a damp, old Sussex castle, American literary phenomenon Stephen Crane lies on his deathbed, wasting away from tuberculosis at the age of twenty-eight.

A Boy's Own Story
ISBN: 9780143114840 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Originally published in 1982 as the first of Edmund White's trilogy of autobiographical novels, A Boy's Own Story became an instant classic for its pioneering portrayal of homosexuality. The book's unnamed narrator, growing up during the 1950s, is beset by aloof parents, a cruel sister, and relentless mocking from his peers, compelling him to seek out works of art and literature as solace-and to uncover new relationships in the struggle to embrace his own sexuality. Lyrical and poignant, with powerful evocations of shame and yearning, this is an American literary treasure.

ISBN: 9780679755401 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) When the narrator of White's poised yet scalding autobiographical novel first embarks on his sexual odyssey, it is the 1950s, and America is "a big gray country of families on drowsy holiday." That country has no room for a scholarly teenager with guilty but insatiable stirrings toward other men. Moving from a Midwestern college to the Stonewall Tavern on the night of the first gay uprising--and populated by eloquent queens, butch poseurs, and a fearfully incompetent shrink--The Beautiful Room is Empty conflates the acts of coming out and coming of age. "With intelligence, candor,...

Wszystkie największe umysły każdego kraju ćwiczyły się, prędzej czy później, na Prouście. Irlandzki pisarz Samuel Beckett napisał zwięzłe studium o Prouście. W Niemczech pisał o nim Walter Benjamin. W Hiszpanii Jos Ortega y Gasset w swym eseju Time, Distance and Form in the Art of Proust zapewniał, że Proust wynalazł nową bliskość między nami a rzeczami, więc niemalże cała literacka twórczość przed nim przyjmowała dla literatury perspektywę z lotu ptaka, niedojrzale panoramiczną w porównaniu z tym...

To that city comes Gabriel, an awkward boy from the provinces whose social naivete and sexual ardor make him endlessly attractive to a variety of patrons and paramours. "A seduction through language, a masque without masks,...
