Haunted St Ives - Ian Addicoat

Some Recollections of St. Ives - David Mamet
From the Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright of Glengarry Glen Ross comes Some Recollections of St. Ives, a masterful novel masquerading as the memoir of Charles Hollis—a fictional man whose life spanned continents and conflicts, culminating in a decades-long tenure at one of America’s most storied institutions: The St. Ives School. Written in the final years of Hollis’s life, Some Recollections of St. Ives traces his forty years within the institution, providing portraits of the people, politics, and parables that shaped both the man and the school. Within Hollis’s allegorical ruminations, David Mamet delivers a sharp, incisive examination of an isolated world—the St. Ives School—and its place in the wider culture.Witty, elegant, and profoundly insightful, Some Recollections of St. Ives proves once again that Mamet is a master of language and character. Intimate yet expansive, this novel is an astute exploration of tradition and legacy—how we shape them and, in turn, how they shape us.

The British Beach Guide - Ian Brighouse
From all around the coast, from the remote wildness of Cullykhan in Aberdeenshire to the bustling working harbour at St Ives in Cornwall, from the vast empty sands of North Norfolk to Anthony Gormley’s iron men at Crosby beach on Merseyside, the author has asked individuals what the beach means to them.He noticed that people are generally happier on the beach and wanted to find out why. Thus began an engrossing venture. Collecting responses, he was surprised on two counts. Firstly, that people were very open and forthcoming; they had never met and none of the interviews were pre-arranged, yet the answers came thick and fast. Secondly, the range of answers was as diverse as the moods of the sea. He discovered that the beach inspires creativity and connections with nature and can be a place of reflection, work or activities and, above all else, the beach has an uplifting effect.These reflections and opinions are the basis of this guide which features 130 of Britain’s beaches, a cross-section of a larger journey. For each beach, there is a summary, including the author’s own impressions, and the answers from people encountered on that beach with photos. As well as being a showcase for the fine words of those who have so generously shared their answers, this is a celebration of us as an island people and an acclamation of the beach itself, this unique place where the land, sky and sea meet.The beach interviews showcase its profound effect on people, whether enhancing creativity, decision- making and energy levels, being restorative and settling, as part of a routine or a reference point through generations, perhaps representing freedom, an escape or just fun.

Magic Is Dead: My Journey into the World's Most Secretive Society of Magicians - Ian Frisch
In the vein of Neil Strauss The Game and Joshua Foer s Moonwalking with Einstein comes the fascinating story of one man s colorful, mysterious, and personal journey into the world of magic, and his unlikely invitation into an underground secret society of revolutionary magicians from around the world. Magic Is Dead is Ian Frisch s head-first dive into a hidden world full of extraordinary characters and highly guarded secrets. It is a story of imagination, deception, and art that spotlights today s most brilliant young magicians a mysterious club known as the52, who are revolutionizing an ancient artform under the mantra Magic Is Dead. Ian brings us with him as he not only gets to know this fascinating world, but also becomes an integral part of it. We meet the52 s founding members Laura London, Daniel Madison, and Chris Ramsay and explore their personal demons, professional aspirations, and what drew them to their craft. We join them at private gatherings of the most extraordinary magicians working today, follow them to magic conventions in Las Vegas and England, and discover some of the best tricks of the trade. We also encounter David Blaine; hang out with Penn Jillette; meet Dynamo, the U.K. s most famous magician; and go behind the scenes of a Netflix magic show. Magic Is Dead is also a chronicle of magic s rich history and how it has changed in the internet age, as the young guns embrace social media and move away from the old-school take on the craft. As he tells the story of the52, and his role as its most unlikely member, Ian reveals his own connection with trickery and deceit and how he first learned the elements that make magic work from his poker-playing mother. He recalls their adventures in card rooms and casinos after his father s sudden death, and shares a touching moment that he had, as a working journalist, with his childhood idol Shaquille O Neal. Magic the romanticism of the inexplicable, the awe and admiration of the unexpected is an underlying force in how we view the world and its myriad possibilities, Ian writes. As his journey continues, Ian not only becomes a performer and creator of magic even fooling the late Anthony Bourdain during a chance encounter he also cements a new brotherhood, and begins to understand his relationship with his father, fifteen years after his death. Written with psychological acuity and a keen eye for detail, Magic Is Dead is an engrossing tale full of wonder and surprise.

How to Win the Premier League - Ian Graham
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER AND A FINANCIAL TIMES, SUNDAY TIMES AND TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024''The best book on football I have ever read'' Daniel Finkelstein''Fascinating and educational. An enjoyable and informative read'' Sir Kenny Dalglish''Deserves a place among the great modern books on football'' Sam Wallace, chief football writer, Telegraph______________________________The insider account of the data revolution that has swept through the modern football world written by one of its key architects, Ian Graham.Between 2012 and 2023, Ian Graham worked as Liverpool FC''s Director of Research. His tenure coincided with the club’s greatest period of success since the 1980s, including winning the Premier League in 2020 – Liverpool’s first league title after an agonising three decades.Here for the first time, Graham reveals the fascinating data that informed some of the club’s most pivotal moments of the past decade, from the appointment of Jurgen Klopp as manager in 2015 to the signing of Mohamed Salah in 2017. Along the way, he shares groundbreaking insight into the modern game, including how a season largely played behind closed doors transformed our understanding of home team advantage, or why the GOAT (greatest of all time) might not be who you think. And, in a game that is increasingly dominated by an elite few, Graham charts a path for the future where a data-savvy competitor will always find the edge.______________________________''A fascinating, witty and remarkably insightful account of Liverpool''s reinvention and a clear-eyed, detailed explanation of the inner workings of modern football.

So This is Permanence - Ian Curtis
So this is permanence, edited by Jon Savage with a foreword by Deborah Curtis, presents the intensely personal writings of one of the most enigmatic and influential songwriters and performers of the late twentieth century, Joy Division''s Ian Curtis. The songs of Joy Division, infused with the energy of punk but steeped in a resigned longing, were born of Manchester in the late seventies - a once flourishing industrial city in decline. They were the songs too of Ian Curtis''s inner tragedies, as he battled depression, epilepsy and debilitating stage fright. Ian Curtis committed suicide in 1980, on the eve of the band''s first American tour. Interspersed with the lyrics are previously unpublished facsimile pages of Ian''s notebooks, which throw his highly emotive lyrics into fascinating relief and cast light on the creative process of this singularly poetic songwriter.

Ian McKellen - Garry O'Connor
The definitive biography of Sir Ian McKellen from an acclaimed biographer In 2001, Ian McKellen put on the robe and pointed hat of a wizard named Gandalf and won a place in the hearts of Tolkien fans worldwide. Though his role in the film adaptation of Lord of the Rings introduced him to a new audience, McKellen had a thriving career a lifetime before his visit to Middle Earth. He made his West End acting debut in 1964 in James Saunders’s A Scent of Flowers, but it was in 1980 that he took Broadway by storm when he played Antonio Salieri in Peter Shaffer’s Tony-Award-winning play Amadeus.He has starred in over four hundred plays and films and he is that rare character: a celebrity whose distinguished political and social service has transcended his international fame to reach beyond the stage and screen. The breadth of his career—professional, personal and political—has been truly staggering: Macbeth (opposite Judi Dench), Iago, King Lear, Chekhov’s Sorin in The Seagull and Becket’s tramp Estragon (opposite Patrick Stewart) in Waiting for Godot. Add to all this his tireless political activism in the cause of gay equality and you have a veritable phenomenon. Garry O’Connor’s Ian McKellen: A Biography probes the heart of the actor, recreating his greatest stage roles and exploring his personal life. Ian McKellen will show readers what makes a great actor tick. His life story has been a constantly developing drama and this biography is the next chapter.

Dva tisíce kilometrů od matčiny ochranitelské náruče, uvězněný v internátní škole, přitahuje svou zranitelností učitelku klavíru slečnu Miriam Cornellovou a zanechává v ní jizvy i vzpomínku na lásku, která nikdy nezmizí.

Ian Fleming - Nicholas Shakespeare
A fresh portrait of the man behind James Bond, and his enduring impact, by an award-winning biographer with unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers. Ian Fleming's greatest creation, James Bond, has had an enormous and ongoing impact on our culture. What Bond represents about ideas of masculinity, the British national psyche and global politics has shifted over time, as has the interpretation of the life of his author.But Fleming himself was more mysterious and subtle than anything he wrote. Ian's childhood with his gifted brother Peter and his extraordinary mother set the pattern for his ambition to be 'the complete man', and he would strive for the means to achieve this 'completeness' all his life. Only a thriller writer for his last twelve years, his dramatic personal life and impressive career in Naval Intelligence put him at the heart of critical moments in world history, while also providing rich inspiration for his fiction.Exceptionally well connected, and widely travelled, from the United States and Soviet Russia to his beloved Jamaica, Ian had access to the most powerful political figures at a time of profound change. Nicholas Shakespeare is one of the most gifted biographers working today. His talent for uncovering material that casts new light on his subjects is fully evident in this masterful, definitive biography.His unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers and his nose for a story make this a fresh and eye-opening picture of a man whose life was overshadowed by his famous creation.

Medieval Horizons - Ian Mortimer
The essential introduction to the Middle Ages by the bestselling author of The Time Traveller''s Guide to Medieval EnglandWe tend to think of the Middle Ages as a dark, backward and unchanging time characterised by violence, ignorance and superstition. By contrast we believe progress arose from science and technological innovation, and that inventions of recent centuries created the modern world.We couldn''t be more wrong. As Ian Mortimer shows in this fascinating book, people''s horizons - their knowledge, experience and understanding of the world - expanded dramatically. Life was utterly transformed between 1000 and 1600, marking the transition from a warrior-led society to that of Shakespeare.Just as The Time Traveller''s Guide to Medieval England revealed what it was like to live in the fourteenth century, Medieval Horizons provides the perfect primer to the era as a whole. It outlines the enormous cultural changes that took place - from literacy to living standards, inequality and even the developing sense of self - thereby correcting misconceptions and presenting the period as a revolutionary age of fundamental importance in the development of the Western world.Praise for Ian Mortimer:''The endlessly inventive Ian Mortimer is the most remarkable medieval historian of our time'' - The Times

The Time Traveller's Guide to Regency Britain - Ian Mortimer
''Excellent... Mortimer''s erudition is formidable'' The TimesA time of exuberance, thrills, frills and unchecked bad behaviour...Ian Mortimer turns to what is arguably the most-loved period in British history - the Regency, or Georgian England.This is the age of Jane Austen and the Romantic poets; the paintings of John Constable and the gardens of Humphry Repton; Britain''s military triumphs at Trafalgar and Waterloo. It was perhaps the last age of true freedom before the arrival of the stifling world of Victorian morality.And like all periods in history, it was an age of many contradictions - where Beethoven''s thundering Fifth Symphony could premier in the same year that saw Jane Austen craft the delicate sensitivities of Persuasion.This is history at its most exciting, physical, visceral - the past not as something to be studied but as lived experience. This is Ian Mortimer at the height of his time-travelling prowess.''Ian Mortimer has made this kind of imaginative time travel his speciality'' Daily Mail

The Fix - Ian Morgan Cron
Did you know that anyone--addicts or non-addicts--can benefit from working the Twelve Steps and find the freedom, joy, and intimacy with God that their hearts long for?We all suffer from a sense of spiritual homelessness--a feeling that we''re not fully at home in the world. To cope with our painful feelings and life traumas, we search for quick "fixes" that eventually become habitual, self-destructive behaviors that ultimately create more problems than they solve.As a person in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, Ian Cron is no stranger to these destructive habits. It wasn''t until he embraced the Twelve Steps that he found true freedom. He knows from personal experience that Twelve Step recovery is more than just a life-saving strategy for guiding substance users into sobriety. Everybody is addicted to something to numb the discomfort of living in a messed-up world, he says, but the good news is that if you committedly "work the steps," you will eventually have a vital spiritual awakening that will give you an entirely new and radically beautiful orientation toward the life God has for you.If you long for sustainable healing and joy amid life''s messiness, The Fix invites you to:Journey step-by-step through a spiritual curriculum that has helped millions overcome trauma, pain, and brokenness for over eight decadesUnderstand how the Twelve Steps can be a transformative tool not only for people with chemical or behavioral addictions but for anyone who wants to move beyond self-help to a spiritual awakeningCatch yourself in the act of self-sabotaging behaviors and understand how each day is a new opportunity to trade in self-willed reformation for grace-powered transformation "My original subtitle for this book--Twelve Steps to Unscrewing Your Screwed-Up Life--was a little over the top," Ian comments. "But anyone who has ever fallen for a quick fix (like drugs, alcohol, porn, overeating, work, religion, people-pleasing, and more) knows firsthand how our self-prescribed treatment plans derail us. They might not be as visible as empty bottles stashed inside a desk drawer, but they are just as life-complicating and soul-crushing."With his characteristic wit and transparent self-disclosure, Ian guides us in learning how to work each of the Twelve Steps so we will finally be given a "new pair of glasses" through which we will be able to see ourselves, others, and the world in a startlingly new way--and ultimately take hold of the freedom God has been waiting to give us all along.

One Fine Day - Ian Marchant
One day Ian Marchant, acclaimed author of books on music, railways and pubs, decided, as all men of a certain age must, to have a dig around his family history. Surprisingly quickly, a web search informed him that his seven-times-great great-grandfather, Thomas Marchant had left a detailed diary from 1714 to 1728. So far, so jolly ... Life-loving diarist Thom - who liked a drink and a game of cards - feels recognisably Marchant to Ian. With fascinating detail we learn about Thom''s family farm and fishponds; about dung, horses and mud; about beer, the wife''s nights out, his own job troubles and their shared worries for their children. But as Ian digs deeper beyond the Sussex diary''s bucolic portrait he discovers a subtext - a family descended from immigrants, with antiestablishment politics, who are struggling with illness, political instability and cash crises - just as their country does three centuries on. Rich and immersive, One Fine Day draws a living portrait of Marchant family life in the 1720s and how their England (rainy, muddy, politically turbulent, illnessridden) became the England of the 2020s.

Smith knows that even readers highly motivated to change their weight and their health need marching orders, and they’re all here in Fast Burn!’s nine-week program. Dr. Ian believes in cleaner eating—forget perfect—and the two positively disruptive Jigsaw Weeks he works into his Fast Burn! program not only mix things up so Fast Burners stay on track, but introduce refreshing and less structured plant-based weeks to the program.

Potichu si zpívám - Ian Anderson
Ian Anderson, legenda artrocku a frontman Jethro Tull, kompletně shromáždil všechny texty, které napsal pro Jethro Tull i pro svou sólovou tvorbu. Sbírku provází sada fotografií, pořízených samotným Ianem, ilustrujících vždy jednu vybranou píseň z každého alba. Knihu otevírá rozsáhlá úvodní předmluva samotného Andersona, ve které do hloubky vysvětluje své tvůrčí postupy. Jde o fascinující výpověď, která dává knize nový rozměr. Ještě před ní si můžete přečíst předmluvu "zázračného dítěte" Geralda Bostocka - jakousi historie Jethro Tull v kostce, vyprávěnou fiktivním autorem veršů alba Thick As A Brick. Jde o typickou ukázku Andersonova humoru a o dokonalý úvod svazku. Kniha obsahuje všechny vydané texty, členěné chronologicky podle alb a jejich pozdějších bonusů, tedy dříve nevydaných skladeb. Na konci sbírky jsou i některé "osiřelé" písně, které se autor rozhodl se zvídavým čtenářem sdílet. Anderson před vydáním knihy všechny skladby trpělivě prošel, aby si ověřil, že text odpovídá přesně tomu, co se zpívá na desce. Název "Potichu si zpívám" dokonce popisuje proces, který mu probíhal v hlavě, když slova kontroloval. Každé album je v knize uvozeno elegantní stránkou s obalem alba a stručným textem o okolnostech jeho vzniku z pera Iana Andersona. Následují texty písní alba v angličtině a v češtině, a fotografie, ilustrující konkrétní píseň. Kromě toho zde skalní fanoušci naleznou řadu kopií rukopisů textů, někdy zcela zárodečných. Autorem českého překladu textů je Vladimír Řepík, který práci Iana Andersona dlouhodobě studuje, mnohokrát se s flétnistou a zpěvákem sešel, navštívil v Británii místa jeho působení, a je dnes patrně nejzasvěcenějším znalcem jeho textařského díla u nás. Po knize "Na rokenrol už jsem starej..." z roku 2006, která mapovala texty Iana Andersona do roku 2003, se tak českému čtenáři dostává do ruky výpravný autorem ilustrovaný svazek zatím kompletního Andersonova lyrického díla včetně posledního alba The Zealot Gene z roku 2022.

The Cockroach - Ian McEwan
Kafka meets The Thick Of It in a bitingly funny new political satire from Ian McEwanThat morning, Jim Sams, clever but by no means profound, woke from uneasy dreams to find himself transformed into a gigantic creature.Jim Sams has undergone a metamorphosis. In his previous life he was ignored or loathed, but in his new incarnation he is the most powerful man in Britain – and it is his mission to carry out the will of the people. Nothing must get in his way: not the opposition, nor the dissenters within his own party. Not even the rules of parliamentary democracy.With trademark intelligence, insight and scabrous humour, Ian McEwan pays tribute to Franz Kafka’s most famous work to engage with a world turned on its head.
