Ellie is a sweet-natured brunette, generous of heart with a sparkling smile and an accent which reveals her East End background. Bonny is beautiful and spoilt, with cascades of blonde hair, the brightest pair of blue eyes and a mouth like Cupid''s bow. The two girls meet in London at the end of the war when, seduced by two American airmen, they pool their wits and resources and set off to make a living on the stage. Set against the hardship and austerity of post-war Britain, and the glamour and ruthlessness of life in variety theatre, their story is one of sacrifice and burning ambition. But most of all of a powerful friendship that lasts against all odds.

Lesley Chan Downer retraces BashoÂ’s pilgrimage through Japan, blending travel, haiku, and contemporary reflections.After eight years working in Japan, immersing herself in its language and literature, Lesley Chan Downer set off in the footsteps of Matsuo Basho, JapanÂ’s most cherished poet, to explore the countryÂ’s remote northern provinces. BashoÂ’s pilgrimage to find the landscapes that had inspired the great medieval poets gave birth to JapanÂ’s most famous travel book, rich in strange imagery and sometimes comic encounters along the road. In this intriguing cross-threading of journeys, perceptions and exquisite haiku, Lesley creates her own funny, loving and honest portrayal of contemporary Japan. As she walks, she finds at one and the same time a drab post-industrial landscape of concrete and cable, but also a land still full of the old enchantments. Nights in thatched highland villages and sake-drenched poetry sessions encourage her to see for herself if any of the legendary hermit-priests still survive in the sacred mountains of the north.

Audiokniha: Osvětim nikdo neopouští živý… Román na motivy skutečného příběhu Maly Zimetbaumové, která jako první žena utekla z Osvětimi. Mala, vězeňkyně 19880, začala chápat, co se děje, až v okamžiku, kdy vystoupila z dobytčáku přímo do spárů pekla. Jako tlumočnice SS využívala svoji pozici k tomu, aby zachránila tolik životů, kolik bylo v jejích silách, pašovala kousky chleba těm, co měli hlad. Edward, politický vězeň 531, přišel do tábora mezi prvními. V pruhované uniformě a s oholenou hlavou vypadá stejně jako jakýkoli jiný vězeň. Je ale členem odbojové skupiny. A také má plán na útěk. Jediným prohřeškem, kterého se oba dopustili, bylo to, že žili. Když se poprvé setkají, tmavé přítmí osvětimských bloků je náhle projasněno zábleskem naděje. Mala díky Edwardovi začne věřit v nemožné. Že mohou tento smrtonosný tábor opustit, i když jsou všude kolem nich ostnaté dráty, na nekonečných strážných věžích číhají automatické zbraně a kužely světel neúnavně bloudí po zemi. Slib je stvrzen – utečou spolu, nebo spolu zemřou. To, co následuje, je jedním z největších milostných příběhů v historii.

Audiokniha: Má naději láska, která vyklíčila mezi ostnatými dráty vyhlazovacího tábora? Historický román o životě slavné rakouské houslistky Almy Rosé. V Osvětimi je každý den bojem o přežití. Alma má na ruce světle modrým inkoustem vytetované číslo 50381 a odtržená od svých milovaných je spolu s tisíci dalšími namačkaná v labyrintu ostnatých drátů. Každý den tu mizí lidé a nikdo je už nikdy nespatří. Tragická realita nemůže být vzdálenější Almině předchozímu životu. Jako uznávaná houslistka uchvacovala své publikum, když se ale v Evropě začali roztahovat nacisté, nemohla ji zachránit žádná sláva světa… Když velitelka ženského tábora Almu jmenuje dirigentkou táborového orchestru, který hraje vězňům plahočícím se do práce i vysokým důstojníkům SS, Alma odmítne: „Mohou mě zabít, ale nepřinutí mě hrát.“ Brzy si však uvědomí, jakou moc s sebou tato pozice nese: může zajistit hladovějícím dívkám příděly jídla navíc a mnoho z nich zachránit před smrtí. Takto Alma potká i Miklóse, talentovaného klavíristu. Obklopeni zoufalstvím nacházejí radost ve společných zkouškách, tajných vzkazech a koncertech, které hrají bok po boku, zatímco se modlí, aby utrpení jednoho dne skončilo. Ale v Osvětimi je i vzduch, který dýchají, prosycený ztrátou a jedinou jistotou je tragédie… Může jejich láska na tak zoufalém místě přežít? ... Unknown localization key: "more"
