Where the Clocks Chime Twice
ISBN: 9781448201204 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

The chief object of these travels was to visit the Seychelles Islands. This remote British colony, lost in the immensity of the Indian Ocean, is a world forgotten by the world, a...

A Year to Remember: A Reminiscence of 1931
ISBN: 9781448201273 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One of the Bright Young Things in that brilliant and stimulating era between the wars, Alec Waugh remembers 1931 as being a year of firsts. It was the year he attended his first garden party, the year he made his first transatlantic phone call, the year he became a member of the MCC. But it was also a year that marked the end of one epoch and the beginning of another, far less frivolous. Nostalgic for the best of that time, Alec Waugh recalls the writers he knew and met here and in America - Somerset Maugham, A J Cronin, John O'Hara, Thurber and Dorothy Parker. Here is an insight...

After seven years of marriage, the beautiful Lady Brenda Last has grown bored with life at Hetton Abbey, the Gothic mansion that is the pride and joy of her husband, Tony.

Helena
ISBN: 9780140182439 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The Empress Helena, mother of Constantine the Great, made the historic pilgrimage to Palestine, found pieces of wood from the true Cross, and built churches at Bethlehem and Olivet. Her life coincided with one of the great turning-points of history: the recognition of Christianity as the religion of the Roman Empire. The enormous conflicting forces of the age, and the corruption, treachery, and madness of Imperial Rome combine to give Evelyn Waugh the theme for one of his most arresting and memorable novels.

Wheels within Wheels: A Story of the Girls
ISBN: 9781448200405 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Events that take place in an obscure oil-surveyor's camp in the French West Indies act as the link and the catalyst for three desperate groups of people thousands of miles apart - in London, New York and the picturesque old quarter of New Orleans. Upon often trivial acts depends matters of life and love and death, and as always Alec Waugh has distilled the drama and the truth from a wide spectrum of characters and situations. The fascination of this novel is that it is, in effect, a game of global consequences. Events that take place in an obscure oil-surveyor's camp in the French West Indies act as the link and the catalyst for three desperate groups of p... |
