Two novellas by John Fraser, Blue Light and Starting Over, conclude a quadrilogy whose previous volumes comprised The Red Tank, Runners and Medusa. We may like to imagine what the end of the world is like - it's not dissimilar to our own end. Blue Light shows what it's like, the running down, the onset of rigor mortis - and the new life sprouting, notwithstanding. Living for ever may not be too bad - but do you really want it? When the world has ended, how attractive is rebirth, or resurrection? Starting Over may mean you have to piece a whole new world together - just using the ruins of the...

The protagonist searches throughout the book for a suitcase - maybe valuable in itself, maybe because it represents resources and a destination. The novel takes us on a trip through the American dream, of wealth, cowboys Hollywood movies, and out the other side, to police shootouts, mortal danger and revolution, on a quest for the missing case.

Soft Landing
ISBN: 9780956909817 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) John Fraser's last work of fiction, Hard Places, was a series of novellas concerning physical and moral dilemmas, left unresolved at the expense of the protagonist. This sequel, Soft Landing, is the opposite - a novel of quest and adventure, in which scruple is overcome, and demanding or impossible situations have outcomes favourable to the hero. The trail takes us from urban violence to Eldorado, the regime of a bikers' club, and the secret finds of a prospectors' camp. The last section shows all puzzles solved, and the protagonists' return home with gifts. In keeping with the tale's sour...

The Other Shore
ISBN: 9781494891497 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The Other Shore focuses on a critical point in Soviet history. It deals with young Soviet intellectuals, bright but not brilliant, confronting a future threatened with war and stagnation, but still with the impetus of post-Stalinist regeneration.
Rather than being a chronicle of the debates between neo-Bolsheviks, Leninists, social and liberal democrats, Trotskyists, Westernisers and traditionalists, it depicts a more modest but more frequently encountered search for commitment, for a meaningful political and social life, in a vast country where light and darkness flicker and alternate...
