Selected Poems
ISBN: 9780224078030 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Over 17 years and nine collections, John Burnside has built--in the words of Bernard O'Donoghue--"a poetic corpus of the first significance," a poetry of luminous, limpid grace. His territory is the no-man's-land of threshold and margin, the charmed half-light of the liminal, a domestic world threaded through with mystery, myth, and longing. In this volume these themes emerge and develop within the growing confidence of Burnside's sinuous lyric poise: the place of the individual in the world, the idea of dwelling and home, and the lure of absence and escape are set against the possibilities...

Something Like Happy
ISBN: 9780099575597 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In these remarkable stories, John Burnside takes us into the lives of men and women trapped in marriage, ensnared by drink, diminished by disappointment; all kinds of women, all kinds of men - lonely, unfaithful, dying - driving empty roads at night. These are people for whom the idea of 'home' has become increasingly intangible, hard to believe - and happiness, or grace, or freedom, all now seem to belong in some kind of dream, or a fable they might have read in a children's picture book. As he says in one story, 'All a man has is his work and his sense of himself, all the secret life he...

In 'The Hoop', his first book of poems, John Burnside takes his bearings from Celtic mythology and from landscape, especially that of Gloucestershire. 'The things that contribute to how I work are botanical texts and drawings, fairy stories, Celtic and Romance literature.' The originality of his work lies in its themes - stewardship of the land, a sense that landscape by being described is valued and preserved - and in his disciplined eye and ear.

In Persian myth, it is said that Akbar the Great once built a palace which he filled with newborn children, attended only by mutes, in order to learn whether language is innate or aquired. As the year passed and the children grew into their silent and difficult world, this palace became known as the Gang Mahal, or Dumb House. In his first novel, John Burnside explores the possibilites inherent in a modern-day repetition of Akbars investigations. Following the...

Nach Jahren des Vorsatzes, niemals so zu werden wie sein Vater, muss sich John Burnside eingestehen, dass er den gleichen Weg eingeschlagen hat wie der Mann, den er zutiefst verachtet: Drogen, Alkohol und die Weigerung, Verantwortung zu übernehmen, haben ihn an den Rand des Wahnsinns gebracht. Ganz unten angekommen, beschließt er, wieder für ein Leben zu kämpfen, das diesen Namen wirklich verdient. Er möchte werden wie alle anderen. John Burnside...

I Put a Spell on You
ISBN: 9780099554943 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this exquisite, haunting book, John Burnside describes his coming of age from the industrial misery of Cowdenbeath and Corby to the new world of Cambridge. This is a memoir of romance - of lost love and the love of being lost - darkened by threat, illuminated by glamour. The old Scots word 'glamour' means magical charm, and the first time he was played I Put a Spell on You, John Burnside thought he had never heard a more beautiful song - it was an enchantment, a fascination that would turn to obsession. Implicit in the song were all the ambiguities that intrigued him - love, possession and...
