Fear and Loathing at Goodison Park - Louis Foster
Fear and Loathing at Goodison Park chronicles the David Moyes era at Everton, when a fallen giant of the English game fought to re-establish itself among football''s elite. With relegation dogfights making way for Champions League qualification and the first cup final since 1995, David Moyes'' tenure was underpinned by stability and a hopefulness that success would soon return to the blue half of Merseyside. It was, however, a period when the notion of success was redefined, not only for Everton but within the game as a whole. With the financial gulf widening in a league deluged by an influx of foreign investment and media conglomerates, Moyes'' Everton became synonymous with operating on a shoe-string budget, in an era of multi-million -pound transfers and bloated wages. With billionaire takeovers reshaping the landscape of English football forever, the people''s club''s hopes of breaking through football''s glass ceiling faded, leaving only fear and loathing at Goodison Park.

Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72 - Hunter S. Thompson
The best, the fastest, the hippest and the most unorthodox account ever published of the US presidential electoral process in all its madness and corruption.In 1972 Hunter S. Thompson, the creator and king of Gonzo journalism, covered the US presidential campaign for Rolling Stone magazine alongside the establishment newsmen of Washington. The result is a classic piece of subversive reportage and a fantastic ride on the rollercoaster of Hunter’s uniquely savage imagination. In his own words, written years before Watergate: ‘It is Nixon himself who represents that dark, venal and incurably violent side of the American character almost every other country in the world has learned to fear and despise.’

Hell's Angels - Hunter S. Thompson
From the father of ''gonzo journalism'', Hunter S. Thompson''s research for Hell''s Angels involved more than a year of close association with the outlaws who burned a path through 1960s America, resulting in a masterpiece of underground reportage published in Penguin Modern Classics.''A phalanx of motorcycles cam roaring over the hill from the west ... the noise was like a landslide, or a wing of bombers passing over. Even knowing the Angels I couldn''t quite handle what I was seeing.'' Huge bikes, filthy denim and an aura of barely contained violence; the Hell''s Angels could paralyse whole towns with fear. But how much of that reputation was myth and how much was brutal reality? Only one man could discover the truth about these latter-day barbarians; Hunter S. Thompson, Dr Gonzo himself, the man who saw the fear and loathing at the heart of the American dream. Determined to discover the truth behind the terrifying reputation of these marauding biker gangs, Thompson spent a year on the road with the Angels, documenting his hair-raising experiences with Charger Charley, Big Frank, Little Jesus and the Gimp.

Like a Rolling Stone - Greil Marcus
Sardonic, bitter, threatening, compassionate, gleeful, and most of all loud, ''Like a Rolling Stone'' is much more than a song. Six minutes and six seconds in length, it was released by Dylan despite the received wisdom of the day as to what constituted a single. Originally published on the 40th anniversary of its release and recording, Greil Marcus'' extraordinary book reconstructs the context in which the song first appeared, in terms of Dylan''s own career (his controversial transformation from folk singer into rock n roll singer) and the world at large (Vietnam, the Watts Riots, the burgeoning counter-culture of the time). This is itself the stage for Marcus'' recreation of the song on the page - its emergence from fragments, its words, its sound, its discovery of itself. An analysis and critique of an artist at the height of his creative powers, it affords a unique insight into the mistakes, inspirations and bloody mindedness that come together only in the very highest cultural moments.

Strach a hnus v Las Vegas - Hunter S. Thompson
Novinář Raoul Duke (Thompsonovo alter ego) a jeho samojský právní zástupce doktor Gonzo uhánějí v zářivě rudém kabrioletu nevadskou pouští vstříc Las Vegas. Co je žene kupředu, však nejsou hazardní hry ve slavných místních kasinech, ale touha najít a důkladně prozkoumat bájný „americký sen“ i „úžasné možnosti“ konzumního způsobu života. Vybavení širokou škálou drog, které se nebojí v hojné míře užívat, se ústřední protagonisté protloukají nejrůznějšími místy města hříchu a jeho okolí, přičemž se střetávají s více či méně bizarními postavičkami z řad běžných Američanů – se zaměstnanci kasin a hotelů, policisty či novináři. Jejich putování je plné divokého, nespoutaného humoru, psychedelických vizí a místy až nesnesitelné paranoie, stejně jako břitkých a trefných komentářů vztahujících se ke všeobecně známým – a mnohdy falešným – ideálům soudobé americké společnosti. Strach a hnus v Las Vegas představuje jedno z nejpřesvědčivějších a nejčtivějších svědectví o konci éry hippies a zároveň jde o nadčasový text, který se stal milníkem moderní americké literatury a základním dílem tzv. gonzo žurnalismu, jehož je Thompson otcem.

The first volume in Hunter S. Thompson’s intimate letters begins with a high school essay written in 1955, and takes us through 1967, when the publication of Hell’s Angels made the author an international celebrity.

Fear and Trembling - Søren Kierkegaard
In Fear and Trembling, Søren Kierkegaard''s infamous and controversial work made a lasting impression on both modern Protestant theology and existentialist philosophers such as Sartre and Camus. This Penguin Classics edition is translated from the Danish with an introduction by Alistair Hannay.Writing under the pseudonym of ''Johannes de silentio'', Kierkegaard expounds his personal view of religion through a discussion of the scene in Genesis in which Abraham prepares to sacrifice his son Isaac at God''s command. Believing Abraham''s unreserved obedience to be the essential leap of faith needed to make a full commitment to his religion, Kierkegaard himself made great sacrifices in order to dedicate his life entirely to his philosophy and to God. The conviction shown in this religious polemic - that a man can have an exceptional mission in life - informed all Kierkegaard''s later writings. His ''teleological suspension of the ethical'' challenged the contemporary views of Hegel''s universal moral system, and was also hugely influential for both protestant theology and the existentialist movement. Alastair Hannay''s introduction evaluates Kierkegaard''s philosophy and the ways in which it conflicted with more accepted contemporary views.

The Rolling Stones: Sixty Years - Christopher Sandford
A new, updated edition of Christopher Sandford's classic biography of the band, The Rolling Stones is a gripping account of the band's remarkable 60 years at the top of the rock industry. In 1962 Mick Jagger was a bright, well-scrubbed boy (planning a career in the civil service), while Keith Richards was learning how to smoke and to swivel a six-shooter. Add the mercurial Brian Jones (who'd been effectively run out of Cheltenham for theft, multiple impregnations and playing blues guitar), the wryly opinionated Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts, and the potential was obvious.During the 1960s and 70s the Rolling Stones were the polarising figures in Britain, admired in some quarters for their flamboyance, creativity and salacious lifestyles, and reviled elsewhere for the same reasons. Confidently expected never to reach 30, the band is now celebrating 60 years together with a European tour, Sixty, to mark the occasion. Of the original line-up, only Jagger and Richards remain, along with 'new boy' Ronnie Wood, who joined the band in 1975. In The Rolling Stones, Christopher Sandford tells the human drama at the centre of the Rolling Stones story. Sandford has carried out interviews with those close to the Stones, family ...

Fear and Trembling - Søren Aabye Kierkegaard
Kierkegaard''s infamous and hugely influential philosophical work on faith, choice and sacrificeIn Fear and Trembling Kierkegaard, writing under the pseudonym Johannes de silentio, expounds his personal view of religion through the scene in Genesis in which Abraham prepares to kill his son at God''s command. Kierkegaard believed Abraham''s unreserved obedience to be the essential leap of faith needed to make a full commitment to his religion. The conviction shown in this polemic - that an individual can have an exceptional mission in life - informed all his later writings, and was also hugely influential for both Protestant theology and the existentialist movement.Translated with an Introduction by Alastair Hannay

The Stone and the Wireless - Shaoling Ma
In the final decades of the Manchu Qing dynasty in China, technologies such as the phonograph, telephone, telegraph, and photography were both new and foreign. In The Stone and the Wireless Shaoling Ma analyzes diplomatic diaries, early science fiction, feminist poetry, photography, telegrams, and other archival texts, and shows how writers, intellectuals, reformers, and revolutionaries theorized what media does despite lacking a vocabulary to do so. Media defines the dynamics between technologies and their social or cultural forms, between devices or communicative processes and their representations in texts and images. More than simply reexamining late Qing China's political upheavals and modernizing energies through the lens of media, Ma shows that a new culture of mediation was helping to shape the very distinctions between politics, gender dynamics, economics, and science and technology. Ma contends that mediation lies not only at the heart of Chinese media history but of media history writ large.
