Enterprising Women
ISBN: 9780957206151 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. John Fraser's latest literary tour de force Enterprising Women is a sequence of stories of women in difficult circumstances, who contrive to avoid - and sometimes cause - the worst of consequences. In 'The Flies', the women are witness to violence and temptation, and although one of the heroines succumbs to alcohol, the others manage to maintain their extraneous, and independent, positions. In 'Landfall', the protagonist, a spymaster, survives the loss and betrayal of her male companions, maintains her scepticism regarding the value of her profession, and ultimately we presume she continues...

John Fraser has been described as 'the most original novelist of our time' by the Whitbread Award Winner and Book Prize nominee John Fuller. In Fraser's latest novel, after a convulsive war that rumbles on for thirty years a disparate group search amongst the metal skeletons, detritus and urban wreckage of a shattered land for a new life, a new start and some kind of normality. The group, comprising therapists and entrepreneurs,... 'A lawyer looks for the tiny rock of guilt in a sea of innocence. A lawyer looks for the tiny rock of innocence in a sea of guilt.

The Red Tank
ISBN: 9781494892586 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In three fables, Fraser's The Red Tank presents founding myths and 21st century epics - viewed with a kind of Martian 'taken-abackness'. In our new globalised world, what happens to the little beings, our species, and their allies among the beasts - do they grow, becoming giant, innocent philosophers, or do they go off to rut and runt in the forest?
The human project is once more immense: taming nature, securing peace, creating order. The protagonists are fabulous, easily the equals of ancient gods and heroes. In the first fable, "Chinese Whispers," we try to subdue and measure nature -...

An Illusion of Sun
ISBN: 9780957206120 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. An Illusion of Sun is the first of John Fraser's 19 novels (18 published, one forthcoming). 'I wanted to do a novel that smelled of fascism (I hope not a fascist novel ) -' Fraser says '- the slaughterhouse, the canals, the fruit - every kind of South and Central European fascism, from Franco to Tiso and Dolfuss, its impregnation of other discourses, from "democracy" to "socialism." It was intended to show how that virus had penetrated the bourgeoisie, its philosophy and its theorists, the ornamental style itself the modesty veil thrown over.' The novel is located in a Slavonic Venice, a city...

Blue Light: and Starting Over
ISBN: 9780992758851 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Blue Light comprises two novellas by John Fraser: "Blue Light: After the End" and "Starting Over."
We may like to imagine we know what the end of the world will be like - and maybe it will not be dissimilar to our own individual ends. "Blue Light" shows what it's like, the running down, the onset of rigor mortis, the new life sprouting, notwithstanding. Living for ever may not be too bad - but do we really want it? When the world has ended, how attractive is rebirth, or resurrection? "Starting Over" may mean we have to piece a whole new world together - just using the ruins of the...

Animal Tales
ISBN: 9780992758813 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The theme of the three stories that make up John Fraser's brilliant new literary tour de force 'Animal Tales' is sacrifice. Sacrifice for others, for those close to one, or as a once-religious, generalised act. The context is a nature 'personalised' in the form of its animals - animals as the screen on which humans project their aspirations and their failures. In the first tale, the female protagonist suffers a series of disappointments - in her art, her civilisation, and the violation of her body. There remains for her only the self-denial and cleansing of consumption by an animal. In 'The...
