"Kingsley Amis''s drink writing is better than anybody else''s, ever..." EsquireKingsley Amis was one of the great masters of comic prose, and no subject was dearer to him than the art and practice of imbibing.Everyday Drinking brings together the best of his writing on the subject: Kingsley Amis in Drink, Everyday Drinking and How''s Your Glass? In one handsome package, the book covers a full shelf of the master''s riotous and erudite thoughts on the drinking arts; along with a series of well-tested recipes (including a cocktail called the Lucky Jim) are Amis''s musings on The Hangover, The Boozing Man''s Diet, The Mean Sod''s Guide, and (presumably as a matter of speculation) How Not to Get Drunk – all leavened with fun quizzes on the making and drinking of alcohol all over the world.Mixing practical know-how and hilarious opinionation, this is a delightful cocktail of wry humour and distilled knowledge, served by one of our great gimlet wits.With an introduction by Christopher Hitchens.

In That Uncertain Feeling by Kingsley Amis, competition is stiff for the position of sub-librarian in Aberdarcy Library. For John Lewis, the situation is complicated by the attentions of daunting and desirable village socialite, Elizabeth Gruffyd-Williams, who is married to a member of the local Council. Pursuing an affair with her whilst keeping his job prospects alive is John''s predicament, as he finds himself running down Welsh country lanes at midnight in a wig and dress, resisting the advances of local drunks and suffering the long speeches of a ''nut-faced'' clergyman.At times tenderly satirical and at times riotously slap-stick, Amis sends up an array of rural stereotypes in this story about a man who doesn''t know what he wants.Kingsley Amis''s (1922-95) works take a humorous yet highly critical look at British society, especially in the period following the end of World War II.

Audiokniha: Aby byl Jim šťastný, musí o své místo na slunci zabojovat… Legendární román zesměšňující snobismus a anglické vysoké školství v polovině padesátých let na postavě Jima Dixtona, lektora historie na univerzitě. Prvotina slavného britského prozaika Kingsleyho Amise se okamžitě po svém uveřejnění v roce 1954 zařadila mezi nejoblíbenější a nejčtenější romány. Jen během prvních čtyř let se dočkala dvaceti vydání. Čtenáře od počátku až do dnešní doby baví neodolatelným vtipem a sžíravou ironií, s nimiž Amis zaznamenal, jak mladý James Dixon přišel o iluze ve zkostnatělém prostředí malé anglické univerzity v provinčním městě. Autor v knize vtipně a ironicky charakterizuje omezený tradicionalismus, pokrytectví a kariérismus, přežívající v určitých vrstvách anglické společnosti počátku padesátých let 20. století na příkladu Jamese (Jima) Dixtona, učitele dějin středověku. Jim se bouří proti konvencím a vysoce postavenými lidmi opovrhuje, ale zároveň s nimi musí vycházet, aby nepřišel o místo, protože nemá smlouvu na neurčito. Nešťastně se zamiluje do přítelkyně syna svého nadřízeného, která jeho city – pro našeho hrdinu nečekaně – částečně opětuje. Jim si plnou vahou odpovědnosti uvědomuje, že aby dosáhl vítězství nejen v pracovní sféře, ale především v osobní, musí vystoupit ze své komfortní zóny a riskovat vše. Odváží se však k takovému kroku? A jakou cenu za to zaplatí? Šťastný Jim získal cenu Sommerseta Maughama určenou autorům do 35 let a byl několikrát zfilmovaný. Poprvé už v roce 1957 bratry Boultingovými a zatím naposledy v roce 2003 Robinem Shepperdem.

''A brilliantly and preposterously funny book'' Guardian''A flawless comic novel ... I loved it then, as I do now. It has always made me laugh out loud'' Helen Dunmore, The TimesJim Dixon has accidentally fallen into a job at one of Britain''s new red brick universities. A moderately successful future in the History Department beckons - as long as Jim can stave off the unwelcome advances of fellow lecturer Margaret, survive a madrigal-singing weekend at Professor Welch''s, deliver a lecture on ''Merrie England'' and resist Christine, the hopelessly desirable girlfriend of Welch''s awful son Bertrand. Inspired by Amis''s friend, the poet Philip Larkin, Jim Dixon is a timeless comic character, adrift in a hopelessly gauche and pretentious world, in a witty campus novel that skewers the hypocrisies and vanities of 1950s academic life.With an introduction by David Lodge

''this is all a fairy tale...and, therefore, you are not to believe a word of it, even if it is true''The Water-Babies (1863) is one of the strangest and most powerful children''s stories ever written.In describing the underwater adventures of Tom, a chimney-sweeper''s boy who is transformed into a water-baby after he drowns, Charles Kingsley combined comic fantasy and moral fable to extraordinary effect. Tom''s encounters with friendly fish, curious lobsters, and characters such as Mrs Doasyouwouldbedoneby are both an exciting fairy tale and a crash course in evolutionary theory. They also reflect the quirky imagination of one of the great Victorian eccentrics. Tom''s adventures are constantly interrupted by Kingsley''s sideswipes at contemporary issues such as child labour and the British education system, and they offer a rich satiric take on the great scientific debates of the day.This edition reprints the original complete version of the story, and includes a lively introduction, detailed explanatory notes, and an appendix that reprints Kingsley''s first attempt to describe the mysterious creatures that live under the sea.

'Wishful Drinking is a touching and incisive account of bipolarity, addiction and motherhood.' Independent ‘No motive is pure. No one is good or bad – but a hearty mix of both. And sometimes life actually gives to you by taking away.' Carrie Fisher in Wishful DrinkingIn Wishful Drinking, Carrie Fisher told the true and intoxicating story of her life with inimitable wit. Born to celebrity parents, she was picked to play aprincess in a little movie calledStar Wars when only 19 years old. "But it isn't all sweetness and light sabres." Alas, aside from a demanding career and her role as a single mother (not to mention the hyperspace hairdo), Carrie also spends her free time battling addiction and weathering the wild ride of manic depression. It's an incredible tale: from having Elizabeth Tayloras a stepmother, to marrying (and divorcing) Paul Simon, and from having the father of her daughter leave her for a man, to ultimately waking up one morning and finding a friend dead beside her in bed. Carrie Fisher's star-studded career included roles in numerous films such as The Blues Brothers and When Harry Met Sally. She was the author of four bestselling novels, Surrender in the Pink, Delusions of Grandma, The Best Awful and Postcards from the Edge, which was made into a hit film starring Shirley MacLaine and Meryl Streep. Carrie's experience with addiction and mental illness – and her willingness to talk honestly about them – made her a sought-after speaker and respected advocate. She was truly one of the most magical people to walk among us.

‘The best thing Martin Amis has done in fiction for years’ Literary Review There were conjugal visits in the slave camps of the USSR. Valiant women would travel continental distances, over weeks and months, in the hope of spending a night, with their particular enemy of the people, in the House of Meetings. The consequences of these liaisons were almost invariably tragic. House of Meetings is about one such liaison. It is a triangular romance: two brothers fall in love with the same girl, a nineteen-year-old Jewess, in Moscow, which is poised for pogrom in the gap between the war and the death of Stalin. Both brothers are arrested, and their rivalry slowly complicates itself over a decade in the slave camp above the Arctic Circle. ‘It is difficult not to be impressed by this compact tour de force’ Observer

Scott Fitzgerald claimed that a good short story could “be written on a bottle.” Here is a collection of contemporary short stories written on and about bottles – stories about the comedies, tragedies, pleasures, pains and horrors of alcohol – all of which can be downed like (and perhaps with) a glass of vodka.Edited with an introduction by Karen Stevens and Jonathan Taylor, contributors include some of the best short story writers in the UK today: Judith Allnatt, Jenn Ashworth, Laurie Cusack, Desmond Barry, Louis de Bernières, Jane Feaver, Cathy Galvin, Alison Moore, Kate North, Bethan Roberts, Jane Roberts, Hannah Stevens, Michael Stewart, David Swann, Melanie Whipman, and Sue Wilsea.

Everyday Sketching and Drawing offers an easy-to-follow, 5-step formula, which teaches beginner-friendly techniques for learning the skills necessary to make drawing and sketching an everyday habit.For those who have always wanted to or tried and failed to learn to draw it provides simple step-by-step instruction, plus easy-to-follow practice exercises, and provides the motivation and inspiration readers need to be successful.For those who already draw, Everyday Sketching and Drawing offers another technique to add to their drawing arsenal. Why do so many adults come to view drawing as difficult or fraught with anxiety? Traditional art instruction is often bogged down with jargon, rules, and admonishments that unintentionally stifle the joy of drawing for its own sake.Steven Reddy''s new and easy approach to drawing instructs sketchers to document their unique and compelling lives in realistic yet playful sketches that record the places, spaces, and objects that help define them as individuals. He reminds artists to slow down, notice, and attend to the sketch-worthy scenes and subjects that are unstaged and always there in our everyday lives. He offers a versatile technique that can lead to a skill that fills sketchbooks with the visual details that differentiate one life from another. This approach is a meditative, relaxing alternative to academic concerns about perspective, proportion, and accuracy.Reddy encourages artists to capture in whimsical but detail-specific illustrations their unique, subjective interpretation of their visual surroundings. Steven Reddy''s drawing method produces extremely detailed and realistic scenes of objects and scenes in everyday life in a relatively short period of time (60 minutes to 3 hours or more, depending on the sketcher''s preference). Modifying a technique utilized by Old Master oil painters, the drawings pass through 5 clearly articulated stages where each step focuses on one visual concept at a time.
