Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. »Seit über dreißig Jahren lebe ich im Westen Japans, und zu meinem großen Entzücken weiß ich heute deutlich weniger als bei meiner Ankunft.« Folgerichtig zählt sich auch Pico Iyer, einer der großen Reiseschriftsteller unserer Zeit, vergnügt zu den Japan-Anfängern. Denn das Land warte tagtäglich mit zu vielen Rätseln auf, als dass selbst langjährige Bewohner echte Kennerschaft für sich in Anspruch nehmen könnten. Hier nun schöpft Iyer aus seinen vielen Erfahrungen, aus Reisen, Gedanken, Lektüren,Gesprächen mit japanischen Freundinnen und Freunden und er öffnet uns...

The Art of Stillness: Adventures in Going Nowhere
ISBN: 9781476784724 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A follow up to Pico Iyer's essay "The Joy of Quiet," The Art of Stillness considers the unexpected adventure of staying put and reveals a counterintuitive truth: The more ways we have to connect, the more we seem desperate to unplug. Why might a lifelong traveler like Pico Iyer, who has journeyed from Easter Island to Ethiopia, Cuba to Kathmandu, think that sitting quietly in a room might be the ultimate adventure? Because in our madly accelerating world, our lives are crowded, chaotic and noisy. There's never been a greater need to slow down, tune out and give ourselves permission...

The Man Within My Head
ISBN: 9780307387561 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Ever since he first discovered Graham Greene's work, Pico Iyer has felt a haunting closeness with the English writer. In The Man Within My Head, Iyer follows Greene's trail from his first novel, The Man Within, to such later classics as The Quiet American, examining Greene's obsessions, his elusiveness, and his penchant for mystery. The deeper he plunges into this exploration, the more Iyer begins to wonder whether the man within his head might not be Greene but his own father, or perhaps some more shadowy aspect of himself. Ever since he first discovered Graham Greene's work, Pico Iyer has felt a haunting closeness with the English writer. In The Man Within My Head<... |

Abandon
ISBN: 9781400030859 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Pico Iyer's intoxicating new novel is at once a stylish intellectual mystery and a pulse-quickening love story--the love in question being at once sacred and profane.
John Macmillan, a classically reticent Englishman who has moved to California to study the poems of the Sufi mystic Rumi, unexpectedly becomes involved in two equally absorbing quests. The first is for a mysterious Rumi manuscript that may have been smuggled out of Iran; the second for the elusive Camilla Jensen, who continually offers herself to him only to repeatedly slip from his grasp. Are these quests somehow related?... Pico Iyer's intoxicating new novel is at once a stylish intellectual mystery and a pulse-quickening love story--the love in question being at once sac...

In Tropical Classical the author of Video Nights in Katmandu and The Lady and the Monk visits a holy city in Ethiopia, where hooded worshippers practice a Christianity that has remained unchanged since the Middle Ages.

Iyer chats with the Dalai Lama and assesses the books of Salman Rushdie and Cormac McCarthy. And he brings his perceptive eye and unflappable wit to bear on the postmodern vogues for literary puffery,...
