Austrálsky spisovateľ Guy Newell Boothby (1867 - 1905) patril koncom 19. storočia medzi najpopulárnejších autorov kriminálno-mystických románov v po anglicky hovoriacom svete. Jeho verných čitateľov fascinovali mierne ironické bizarné príbehy plné dômyselne skonštruovaných zápletiek, exotických svetov a tajuplných mužov i žien. Boothby síce spočiatku tvoril poviedky z austrálskeho života, ale veľmi rýchlo pochopil, po čom milovníci dobrodružných knižiek prahnú a začal sa naplno venovať žánrovej literatúre. Čoskoro sa stal jedným z najvyhľadávanejších tvorcov detektívky, sci-fi a gotického hororu. Jeho dielo je doslova zaplnené množstvom nevšedných postáv, medzi ktorými vynikajú najmä oslniví darebáci. S veľkou obľubou opisoval klasických nadprirodzených diablov z fin-de-si?cle gothic, miloval deformovaných šialencov, ale najväčšiu slávu mu priniesol sofistikovaný medzinárodný majstrovský zločinec doktor Nikola, ktorý sa neskôr stal predobrazom najväčšieho protivníka agenta 007 Jamesa Bonda v románoch Iana Fleminga. Najmä tvorcovia filmových "bondoviek" sa pri stvárňovaní nadnárodného ničomníka Ernsta Stavro Blofelda otvorene prihlásili k odkazu Boothbyho najznámejšej postavy. Oslnený čitateľským úspechom a podporou svojho priateľa Rudyarda Kiplinga chrlil Boothby jeden román za druhým a do svojej náhlej smrti ich publikoval vyše päťdesiat. Jeho najoslnivejším výtvorom však ostávajú knihy o nevšedných dobrodružstvách doktora Nikolu.

Unrestricted by parental control and blessed with bright blond hair that signified good luck to the Chinese, he had free access to hidden corners of the colony normally closed to a Gweilo, a ''pale fellow'' like him. Befriending rickshaw coolies and local stallholders, he learnt Cantonese, sampled delicacies such as boiled water beetles and one-hundred-year-old eggs, and participated in colourful festivals. He even entered the forbidden Kowloon Walled City, wandered into the secret lair of the Triads and visited an opium den. Along the way he encountered a colourful array of people, from the plink plonk man with his dancing monkey to Nagasaki Jim, a drunken child molester, and the Queen of Kowloon, the crazed tramp who may have been a member of the Romanov family.Shadowed by the unhappiness of his warring parents, a broad-minded mother who, ...

Robert Bly, americký básník, esejista a autor "Železného Jana" v této útlé knížce shromáždil svá čtení z let 1971 a 1983 věnovaná jungovskému konceptu stínu, která doplňuje rozhovor s Boothem a esej o poezii Wallace Stevense. Společným motivem všech pěti kapitol je právě stín, o němž Bly mluví jako o "dlouhém pytli, který vlečeme za sebou". Nezkoumá ho jazykem analytické psychologie, nýbrž jazykem básnickým, a pomocí barvitých obrazů a příběhů ukazuje, co dělat, abychom získali zpátky energii, kterou jsme do tohoto pytle odložili a zabránili tak i jejímu zneužívání. "To, co básnická čtení Roberta Blye ve skutečnosti říkají, je: ‚Musíte změnit svůj život.‘ Slyšet tak závažné básně a odolat veškeré změně je horší věc než ztráta času; je to nebezpečné."

''A memorable, oddly beautiful book'' Wall Street Journal''A marvellous glimpse of the Japan that rarely peeks through the country''s public image'' Washington PostOne sunny spring morning in the 1970s, an unlikely Englishman set out on a pilgrimage that would take him across the entire length of Japan. Travelling only along small back roads, Alan Booth travelled on foot from Soya, the country''s northernmost tip, to Sata in the extreme south, traversing three islands and some 2,000 miles of rural Japan. His mission: ''to come to grips with the business of living here,'' after having spent most of his adult life in Tokyo.The Roads to Sata is a wry, witty, inimitable account of that prodigious trek, vividly revealing the reality of life in off-the-tourist-track Japan. Journeying alongside Booth, we encounter the wide variety of people who inhabit the Japanese countryside - from fishermen and soldiers, to bar hostesses and school teachers, to hermits, drunks and the homeless. We glimpse vast stretches of coastline and rambling townscapes, mountains and motorways; watch baseball games and sunrises; sample trout and Kilamanjaro beer, hear folklore, poems and smutty jokes. Throughout, we enjoy the wit and insight of a uniquely perceptive guide, and more importantly, discover ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Nineteenth-century women in British society may have seemed governed by a patriarchal model that reserved power and privilege for men, but women gradually and persuasively challenged not only the ideas of ‘separate spheres of society’ but the influence of Queen Victoria herself.Drawing on a wide range of archival sources, case studies and character portraits, Anne Louise Booth explores the character and influence of the Victorian society woman in both town and country. By examining defining moments in history and the roles these women played in shaping and redefining society, the changing world of the Victorian society woman is brought vividly to life.Seeking to understand women as individuals in the context of their world, and developing a complete picture of a changing social landscape, Anne Louise Booth paints a compelling and illuminating portrait of the lives of women in Victorian society.

The first edition of The Rhetoric of Fiction transformed the criticism of fiction and soon became a classic in the field. One of the most widely used texts in fiction courses, it is a standard reference point in advanced discussions of how fictional form works, how authors make novels accessible, and how readers recreate texts, and its concepts and terms—such as "the implied author," "the postulated reader," and "the unreliable narrator"—have become part of the standard critical lexicon. For this new edition, Wayne C. Booth has written an extensive Afterword in which he clarifies misunderstandings, corrects what he now views as errors, and sets forth his own recent thinking about the rhetoric of fiction. The other new feature is a Supplementary Bibliography, prepared by James Phelan in consultation with the author, which lists the important critical works of the past twenty years—two decades that Booth describes as "the richest in the history of the subject."

Anybody who is a fan should pick this up.' - ANITA RANI'A fascinating but tragic story.' 4/5 - MOJOWhen the Carpenters first toured Japan, a journalist mistakenly referred to Karen as the 'lead sister' of the band. This designation stuck and Karen liked it so much that she had a T-shirt custom-made with the slogan, which she wore while drumming on the band's 1976 world tour. The term also sums up the approach of this biography: a celebratory re-evaluation of a pioneering woman.As one of the biggest-selling acts of the 1970s, sibling duo Richard and Karen Carpenter created lush soundscapes of melodic pop, producing global hits like 'We've Only Just Begun', 'Top of the World' and 'Close to You'. However, though Karen is rightly recognised as one of the greatest singers in popular music, the tragedy of her early death in 1983, at the age of just thirty-two, often overshadows all that she achieved.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In Karen Marie Moning’s latest installment of the epic Fever series, Mac, Barrons, Ryodan, and Jada are back—and the stakes have never been higher or the chemistry hotter. Hurtling us into a realm of labyrinthine intrigue and consummate seduction, Feverborn is a riveting tale of ancient evil, lust, betrayal, forgiveness, and the redemptive power of love. When the immortal Fae destroyed the ancient wall dividing the worlds of Man and Faery, the very fabric of the universe was damaged, and now Earth is vanishing bit by bit. Only the long-lost Song of Making—a haunting, dangerous melody that is the source of life itself—can save the planet. But those who seek the mythic song must contend with old wounds and new enemies, passions that burn hot and hunger for vengeance that runs deep. The challenges are many: the Keltar at war with nine immortals who’ve secretly ruled Dublin for eons, Mac and Jada hunted by the masses, the Seelie queen nowhere to be found, and the most powerful Unseelie prince in all creation determined to rule both Fae and Man.
