1982, Janine - Alasdair Gray

Jock McLeish, failed husband, lover and businessman is alone in a hotel room, drinking whisky, fantasising about sex and contemplating suicide. As he tries to distance himself from reality, his lonely, alcohol-fuelled fantasies are interrupted by a flood of memories, reminding him of his own shortcomings.An unforgettably imaginative book, deeply experimental in its form and charged with a dark humour, 1982, Janine is a searing portrait of male need and inadequacy. Gray''s exploration of politics, religion, powerlessness and pornography has lost none of its power to shock and entertain.

The Ends Of Our Tethers: Thirteen Sorry Stories - Alasdair Gray

Since 1981, when Alasdair Gray''s first novel Lanark was published by Canongate, his characters have aged as fast as their author. The Ends of Our Tethers shows the high jinks of many folk in the last stages of physical, moral and social decrepitude - a sure tonic for the young. The first work of fiction in over six years by one of Britain''s most original and brilliant writers, this wonderful (and very funny) new collection reaffirms Gray''s position as a master of the short story. The Ends of Our Tethers is vintage Gray - experimental, mischievous, wide-ranging but also subtly connected. And as always the work is hallmarked with his highly engaging prose style, dry wit and fecund imagination. These thirteen tales challenge prejudice, question social imbalances and explore human foibles. In ''No Bluebeard'', a socially reclusive man, veteran of three marriages, meets a disturbed and eccentric woman desperate to remain hidden from her family. In ''Job''s Skin Game'' a father develops a skin condition in response to the emotional shock of losing his two sons in the September 11th attacks and his fortune in the dot-com crisis. The exquisite pleasure he takes from scratching and peeling his dead epidermis ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Every Short Story by Alasdair Gray 1951-2012 - Alasdair Gray

The first sixteen tales in this collection were published by Canongate in 1983 with the title Unlikely Stories, Mostly. This collection also has fifty-seven tales from later books, plus sixteen new ones written for the hardback publication of this collection. This last section, Tales Droll and Plausible, shows that Gray''s recent twenty-first-century fiction is as uncomfortably funny and up to date as his earliest.

Of Me and Others - Alasdair Gray

In this frank, playful and typically unorthodox collection of essays, Alasdair Gray tells how his early life experiences influenced his writing, including the creation of those landmarks of literature, Lanark and 1982, Janine. He details the inspirations behind his many acclaimed artworks and murals, and makes clear how his moral, social and political beliefs and his work are inextricably linked.Incisive, funny and fired with passion, Of Me and Others is as much about people, place and politics as it is about Gray''s own life in art.

A History Maker - Alasdair Gray

A tale of border warfare, military and erotic, set in the twenty-third century, where the women rule the kingdom and the men play war games. This is the fictional memoir of Wat Dryhope - edited, annotated and commented upon. History has come to an end, war is regulated as if it''s all a game. But Wat, the History Maker himself, does not play entirely by the rules, and when a woman, Delilah Puddock, joins the fray, this ''utopian'' history is further enlivened. Alasdair Gray cleverly plays with the notion and writing of history, as well as perennial modern debates on war, sexism and society - entertaining and thought-provoking, this is a delightful satire illustrated throughout by the author.

Through his wanton ambition, a megalomania surfaces that is unrelieved by his insensitive attempts at friendship and romance.

My Good Life in France - Janine Marsh

One grey dismal day, Janine Marsh was on a trip to northern France to pick up some cheap wine. She returned to England a few hours later having put in an offer on a rundown old barn in the rural Seven Valleys area of Pas de Calais. This was not something she’d expected or planned for.Janine eventually gave up her job in London to move with her husband to live the good life in France. Or so she hoped. While getting to grips with the locals and la vie Française, and renovating her dilapidated new house, a building lacking the comforts of mains drainage, heating or proper rooms, and with little money and less of a clue, she started to realize there was lot more to her new home than she could ever have imagined.These are the true tales of Janine’s rollercoaster ride through a different culture – one that, to a Brit from the city, was in turns surprising, charming and not the least bit baffling.

After Virtue - Professor Alasdair MacIntyre

Highly controversial when it was first published in 1981, Alasdair MacIntyre''s After Virtue has since established itself as a landmark work in contemporary moral philosophy. In this book, MacIntyre sought to address a crisis in moral language that he traced back to a European Enlightenment that had made the formulation of moral principles increasingly difficult. In the search for a way out of this impasse, MacIntyre returns to an earlier strand of ethical thinking, that of Aristotle, who emphasised the importance of ''virtue'' to the ethical life. More than thirty years after its original publication, After Virtue remains a work that is impossible to ignore for anyone interested in our understanding of ethics and morality today.

Mrtvý osel a gilotinovaná žena - Jules Janin

Česká premiéra slavného skandálního díla, které ve své době útočilo na divákovy nervy přemírou drastických výjevů. Jules Janin jako představitel francouzské frenetické školy navázal na anglický gotický román a vytvořil jeho svéráznou parodii. Osobitý pastiš promísil nejen notnou dávkou černého humoru, ale také jej okořenil působivou lyrikou. Výbušnou směs s jiskrou šílenství slibují zlověstné postavy, prostředí márnice, popraviště, kat nebo clamartský hřbitov. Francouzská kritika si byla jista, že nad tím vším se vznáší odér sirného zápachu a hrdiny i čtenáře příběhu pohltí morbidní temnota. Román ale ve skutečnosti autorovi zajistil místo na výsluní evropské romantiky.

Sung Hwan Kim - Janine Armin

A richly illustrated exploration of Sung Hwan Kim’s complex record of migrant stories, displacement and belonging, border-crossings and translation.In A Record of Drifting Across the Sea (2017–), Sung Hwan Kim turns to past histories of migration. The artist parses the traces—archival and bodily—left by undocumented Korean migrants who came to the US by way of Hawai’i at the turn of the last century, and ponders over their impact on other migrant and indigenous communities. As an ongoing film and installation series, comprising two chapters and a third in progress, A Record unsettles the limits of the "one work" with its distributive, open-ended and collaborative nature.  In this speculative inquiry, Janine Armin explores each chapter in Kim’s multilayered work as a mycelial network of feelers entangling and extending the wider work in process. Engaging history through the senses, folklore and myth, as much as through archival material, Kim navigates and crosses the boundaries between displacement and belonging. Focusing on the artist’s attempt to escape from representation, Armin illuminates and attends to the different stories and non-sovereign ways of being together towards which his work points us.  This title is part of the One Work book series, which focuses on ...

From Syria to Egypt, the cities of northern Iraq to the Gaza Strip, ancient communities, the birthplaces of prophets and saints, are losing any living connection to the religion that once was such a characteristic feature of their social and cultural lives.

Welcome to the Grief Club - Janine Kwoh

Welcome to the club that no one ever wants to join but so many of us end up needing. We’re so sorry that you’re here. Based on her own experience with grief—the author’s partner died when both were in their late twenties—and those of other Grief Club members, Janine Kwoh uses brief writings, illustrations, and creative diagrams to explore the wide range of emotions and experiences that grief can encompass. For anyone who has lost a loved one or who is close to someone who is grieving, Welcome to the Grief Club is a book of solace, connection, hope, and reassurance. It addresses with empathy and honesty the aspects of grief that so many of us experience but that aren’t widely discussed: the variety and volatility of emotions—sadness, anger, guilt, joy; the physical symptoms of grief; and how grief isn’t linear, but it does change and soften over time. It affirms that there is truly no right or wrong way to grieve and assures us that the things we feel that surprise us or seem strange are often common and always valid. Humor helps us to survive, and the book uses a lighthearted approach to cover powerful topics, like supremely ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Paper Jane - Janine Barchas, Sandra Clark, Mary Crawford

Paper Jane reflects Austen’s heady reputation as a revered canonical author, even while her books are simultaneously enjoyed as "chick lit." Jane Austen's growing fame is measured at fifty-year intervals: in 1825, 1875, 1925, 1975, and 2025.  In the semiquincentennial year of Jane Austen (1775–1817), she is arguably the best-known author in the English language after Shakespeare. However, this reputation was hard-won and was many years in the making. This book traces Jane Austen’s ascendence as a literary celebrity through print—from fine first editions to mass-market paperbacks, supplemented by manuscripts, movie posters, graphic novels, theater bills, play scripts, and paper currency. The temporal dimension makes this not only the story of Austen’s growing fame but also traces the changes in readers and reading culture over the last two centuries and a half. It demonstrates that cheap books are, in fact, the force that made “Miss Austen” canonical. Paper Jane accompanies an exhibition at The Grolier Club, drawing from private collections by Janine Barchas, Mary Crawford, and Sandra Clark.

A brilliantly funny young murder mystery from a rising stand-up comedian, podcaster and filmmaker - and exciting new talent in children's fiction. Many people go their whole lives without noticing anything that is afoot, amiss, or even untoward; without ever experiencing that toe-tingling, stomach-twisting sensation that a mystery is about to unfold. Not Bonnie Montgomery - the world's best detective.Not that anyone (other than Grampa Banks) has heard of her... But they might have heard of the great Montgomery Bonbon, the well-dressed gentleman detective who (apart from the hat and moustache) looks suspiciously like a 10-year-old girl. Their newest case: solving the mystery surrounding a highly suspicious death at the Hornville Museum.Together they'll interview some dodgy witnesses, scour the scene for clues and - above all - hope no one notices that Bonnie and Montgomery are never in the same room at the same time...

Solidaritě věnovaný mnichovský koncert z roku 1982 je průnikem Krylova repertoáru ze šedesátých a sedmdesátých let, doplněným o novinky z počátku osmdesátých. Nenajdete tu notoricky známé hity typu Bratříčka či Anděla, ale více než dvacet pro tu příležitost vybraných songů s mimořádnou posluchačskou intenzitou: slyšet Jeřabiny, Varhany v Olivě nebo Dědicům Palachovým v česko-polské verzi je zážitek. Převážná většina z těch 22 písní je v češtině, některé napůl a jiné zcela polsky, čtyřikrát se ozve němčina, třikrát bez české předlohy. Zpěvák se sice návštěvníkům koncertu omluvil za ochraptění - a nečekaně popíjel mléko s medem, ale soudržnost a síla koncertu tím rozhodně neutrpěly. Kryl se tu představuje v mnoha písničkářských podobách. Je politický, sentimentální, zadumaný, žertovný a ironický. Jeho spojovací komentáře jsou zacílené a vtipné, blok "federalizační poezie" i po těch letech neodolatelný. Je to Kryl na pomezí jazyků i občanství, vždy připravený písničkami a povídáním povzbuzovat lidi vyhnané bolševikem mimo vlast - a zprostředkovaně i nás. Zvukově velmi kvalitní záznam je doprovázen koncertními fotografiemi a jinými dokumenty i fundovanou poznámkou Krylova knižního ... Unknown localization key: "more"
