The Fall of the House of Walworth: A Tale of Madness and Murder in Gilded Age America
ISBN: 9780312577148 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Walworth family was the very symbol of virtue and distinction for decades, rising to prominence as part of the splendor of New York's aristocracy. When Frank Walworth travels to New York to "settle a family difficulty" by shooting his father at point blank range, his family must reveal their inner demons in a spectacular trial to save him from execution. The resulting testimony exposes a legacy of mania and abuse, and the stately reputation of the family crumbles in a Gothic drama which the New York Tribune called "sensational to the last degree."

ISBN: 9781582432458 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is a prose poem about reading - a playful, epigrammatic nocturne upon the dream-state one falls into when lost in a book, and the uncanny, trancelike pleasure of making silent marks on paper utter sounds inside one's head. A meditation on reading, the book goes both far and deep, resisting easy summary and classification.

Green and Gray: Volume 20
ISBN: 9780520250192 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 102 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Geoffrey G. O'Brien's second collection documents the "remorse of the senses" that attends each moment of experience, the pain and pleasure of not exiting a world in which injustice and distraction secure every sensual event. Attempting to reestablish experience as something other than complicity, these poems insist on "desiring that which is as if it were not," making poetry out of neighborhood flyers, the Patriot Act, and the poverty of presidential speech. Given this mandate to stay within limited resources, Green and Gray makes a virtue of refusing to abandon them, often relying on...

Behind Blue Eyes: The Life of Pete Townshend
ISBN: 9780815410706 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As far as legendary rock bands go, The Who ranks alongside the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Penning the Who's enduring rock anthems and bringing those songs to life with some of the most frenetic and destructive guitar performances ever witnessed, Pete Townshend proved that his excess matched his talent, and left in his wake bottles, syringes, groupies, and trashed hotel rooms as his band brought their music to an equally energized generation. Biographer Giuliano spills the beans on Townshend's childhood, his battles with band members during the Who's glory days as mod gods, his strange...

Schubert's Reputation from His Time to Ours
ISBN: 9781576472767 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 425 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The composer Franz Schubert (1797-1828) was not bereft of early advocates, from Schumann, Liszt, and Mahler to Sir George Grove. Brahms famously heralded Schubert as "the true successor to Beethoven." Nevertheless, it was not until the end of the twentieth century that Schubert's major instrumental works finally and fully emerged from Beethoven's shadow. Critics and scholars began to reinterpret Schubert's departures from Beethoven's formal and stylistic characteristics, and to see these departures not as flaws but as strengths and hallmarks of a new paradigm. Schubert's alternate...

Winston Churchill's inspiring leadership in the Second World War once put him above criticism. In recent years his record has come under attack. In Churchill: A Study in Greatness, one of Britain's most distinguished historians makes sense of this extraordinary man and his long, controversial, colourful, contradictory and heroic career.

Geoffrey Best brings out both his strengths and his weaknesses, looking past the many received versions of Churchill in a...
