At Swim-two-birds
ISBN: 9780141182681 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Flann O'Brien's innovative metafictional work, whose unruly characters strike out their own paths in life to the frustration of their author, At Swim-Two-Birds is a brilliant impressionistic jumble of ideas, mythology and nonsense published in Penguin Modern Classics. Flann O'Brien's first novel tells the story of a young, indolent undergraduate, who lives with his curmudgeonly uncle in Dubin and spends far too much time drinking with his friends. When not drunk or in bed he likes to invent wild stories peoples with hilarious and unlikely characters - but somehow his creations won't do what...

Dalkey Archive
ISBN: 9781564781727 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Hailed as "the best comic fantasy since "Tristram Shandy"" upon its publication in 1964, "The Dalkey Archive" is Flann O'Brien's fifth and final novel; or rather (as O'Brien wrote to his editor), "The book is not meant to be a novel or anything of the kind but a study in derision, various writers with their styles, and sundry modes, attitudes and cults being the rats in the cage." Among the targets of O'Brien's derision are religiosity, intellectual abstractions, J. W. Dunne's and Albert Einstein's views on time and relativity, and the lives and works of Saint Augustine and James Joyce,...

Sweeny wśród drzew
ISBN: 9788366511668 / Polski / broszurowa / 2022 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Sweeny wśród drzew Flanna OBriena, powieść opublikowana po raz pierwszy w roku 1939, uznawana jest za początek literatury postmodernistycznej. To precyzyjnie skonstruowany pastisz, literacki żart, książka-pajęczyna, której nitki biegną we wszystkich kierunkach, łącząc się i tworząc niezwykły wzór. Zastosowanie kompozycji szkatułkowej umożliwiło autorowi ciągłe obnażanie tworzonej fikcji, poszczególne warstwy kilku opowieści przeplatają się bez przerwy, przechodząc jedna w drugą w iście kalejdoskopowym tempie, tak że nie wiadomo kiedy, stają się jedną...

Best of Myles
ISBN: 9781564782151 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "The Best of Myles" brings together the best of Flann O'Brien's newspaper column "Cruiskeen Lawn," written over a nearly thirty-year period. Covering such subjects as plumbers, the justice system, and improbable inventions, O'Brien (whose real name was Brian O'Nolan, though his newspaper pseudonym was Myles na Gopaleen) is replete with zany humor and biting satire directed at the Irish and their preoccupations. Most of all, however, "The Best of Myles" displays O'Brien's unique mastery of language and style.

Zanedlouho po svém činu se ocitá v bizarním a zcela nepochopitelném světě, kde ho čekají mnohá překvapení, ale především tři strážníci, kteří tento podivný svět střeží a řídí. Neplatí zde žádná ověřená vysvětlení přírodních jevů, smysly vypravěče šálí a paměť mu vypovídá službu. Vypravěč tímto...

Hard Life
ISBN: 9781564781413 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 179 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Subtitled An Exegesis of Squalor, The Hard Life is a sober farce from a master of Irish comic fiction. Set in Dublin at the turn of the century, the novel does involve squalor illness, alcoholism, unemployment, bodily functions, crime, illicit sex but also investigates such diverse topics as Church history, tightrope walking, and the pressing need for public toilets for ladies. The Hard Life is straight-faced entertainment that conceals in laughter its own devious and wicked satire by one of the best known Irish writers of the 20th century."
