Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, actor, ex-cowboy, and musician Sam Shepard now stands revealed as a storyteller of dazzling artistry.

Nosferatu
ISBN: 9780803293465 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From this prodigiously talented writer comes a stunningly original fictional life of the German director F. W. Murnau (1888 1931). Murnau ranks as a founding father of the cinema, not least for his legendary horror film, Nosferatu. Here he is revealed as a hermetic genius who turns against himself, becoming in a sense his own vampire. What shadows Jim Shepard s Murnau through the airfields of the Great War to Berlin in the twenties and to the virtual invention of filmmaking is the conflict between his impossibly high ideals and his heartbreaking memories of love betrayed and love lost....

Love and Hydrogen: New and Selected Stories
ISBN: 9781400033492 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. I've been a problem baby, a lousy son, a distant brother, an off-putting neighbor, a piss-poor student, a worrisome seatmate, an unreliable employee, a bewildering lover, a frustrating confidante and a crappy husband. Among the things I do pretty well at this point I'd have to list darts, re-closing Stay-Fresh boxes, and staying out of the way. This is the self-eulogy offered early on by the unwilling hero of the opening story in this collection, a dazzling array of work in short fiction from a master of the form. The stories in Love and Hydrogen--familiar to readers from...

Like You'd Understand, Anyway
ISBN: 9780307277602 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Following his widely acclaimed Project X and Love and Hydrogen--"Here is the effect of these two books," wrote the Chicago Tribune: "A reader finishes them buzzing with awe"--Jim Shepard now gives us his first entirely new collection in more than a decade.
Like You'd Understand, Anyway reaches from Chernobyl to Bridgeport, with a host of narrators only Shepard could bring to pitch-perfect life. Among them: a middle-aged Aeschylus taking his place at Marathon, still vying for parental approval. A maddeningly indefatigable Victorian explorer hauling his...

Prując przez raj Dom z butelek na pustyni Mojave, koń szybszy od najlepszego auta w całym miasteczku, śmierć od płonącego materaca, czosnek w butach, Austriak na arizońskiej autostradzie, jointy jak chińskie petardy, tajemnicze zniknięcie żony z pokoju numer 33, aktor, który nie lata. Opowiadania Sama Sheparda, rozgrywające się w tej osobliwej scenografii, pełne zaskakujących zwrotów akcji, to kwintesencja amerykańskiej tradycji krótkich form prozatorskich.
