The Broken Road: From the Iron Gates to Mount Athos
ISBN: 9781848547544 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The long-awaited final volume of the trilogy by Patrick Leigh Fermor. A Time of Gifts and Between the Woods and the Water were the first two volumes in a projected trilogy that would describe the walk that Patrick Leigh Fermor undertook at the age of eighteen from the Hook of Holland to Constantinople. 'When are you going to finish Vol. III?' was the cry from his fans; but although he wished he could, the words refused to come. The curious thing was that he had not only written an early draft of the last part of the walk, but that it predated the other two. It remains unfinished but The...

Roumeli: Travels in Northern Greece
ISBN: 9781590171875 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Roumeli is not to be found on present-day maps. It is the name once given to northern Greece--stretching from the Bosporus to the Adriatic and from Macedonia to the Gulf of Corinth, a name that evokes a world where the present is inseparably bound up with the past.
Roumeli describes Patrick Leigh Fermor's wanderings in and around this mysterious and yet very real region. He takes us with him among Sarakatsan shepherds, to the monasteries of Meteora and the villages of Krakora, and on a mission to track down a pair of Byron's slippers at Missolonghi. As he does, he brings to light... Roumeli is not to be found on present-day maps. It is the name once given to northern Greece--stretching from the Bosporus to the Adriatic and from Ma...

The Cretan Runner: His Story of the German Occupation
ISBN: 9781590179048 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. George Psychoundakis was a twenty-one-year-old shepherd from the village of Asi Gonia when the battle of Crete began: "It was in May 1941 that, all of a sudden, high in the sky, we heard the drone of many aeroplanes growing steadily closer." The German parachutists soon outnumbered the British troops who were forced first to retreat, then to evacuate, before Crete fell to the Germans. So began the Cretan Resistance and the young shepherd's career as a wartime runner. In this unique account of the Resistance, Psychoundakis records the daily life of his fellow Cretans, his treacherous journeys...

Mani: Travels in the Southern Peloponnese
ISBN: 9781590171882 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Mani, at the tip of Greece's--and Europe's--southernmost promontory, is one of the most isolated regions of the world. Cut off from the rest of the country by the towering range of the Taygetus and hemmed in by the Aegean and Ionian seas, it is a land where the past is still very much a part of its people's daily lives.
Patrick Leigh Fermor, who has been described as -a cross between Indiana Jones, James Bond, and Graham Greene, - bridges the genres of adventure story, travel writing, and memoir to reveal an ancient world living alongside the twentieth century. Here, in the book that... The Mani, at the tip of Greece's--and Europe's--southernmost promontory, is one of the most isolated regions of the world. Cut off from the rest of th...

Gigi, Julie de Carneilhan, and Chance Acquaintances: Three Short Novels
ISBN: 9780374527853 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Two volumes of Colette's most beloved works, with a new Introduction by Judith Thurman. Perhaps Colette's best-known work, Gigi is the story of a young girl being raised in a household more concerned with success and money than with the desires of the heart. But Gigi is uninterested in the dishonest society life she observes all around her and remains exasperatingly Gigi. The tale of Gigi's success in spite of her anxious family is Colette at her liveliest and most entertaining. Written during the same period as Gigi, Julie de Carneilhan, based on Colette's last...
