Jane Austen’s Persuasion meets the Big Apple in this swoon-worthy holiday romance from the authors of Elizabeth of East Hampton and Emma of 83rd Street.Eight years ago, Anne Elliot broke Freddie Wentworth’s heart when she refused to give up her five-year plan for the sake of adventure. But despite big dreams, Anne, now thirty, is still living at home with hardly a plan in sight. Anne tries to be optimistic—she knows better than anyone that regret will get you nowhere—but that goes out the window when, thanks to her father’s bad spending habits, her childhood apartment is rented out to the very man still living in her head rent-free. Freddie Wentworth never thought he would see Anne Elliot again after she dumped him for accepting a job overseas. He spent years trying to forget her, and he’s been mostly successful. So when a job opportunity takes him back to New York, he’s shocked to find out that Anne is not only his new neighbor, but also the former resident of his new Greenwich Village penthouse. Nearly a decade after Anne and Freddie’s fateful romance, the only thing they still have in common is a desire to leave their relationship firmly ... Unknown localization key: "more"

How Freaking Romantic - Emily Harding

In this sharply funny solo debut, an aspiring lawyer is forced to work alongside the opposing counsel in her best friend’s divorce case, which leads to the biggest irreconcilable difference of all: love.Beatrice Nilsson is what some might call “feisty” (those who love her) and others “combative” (those who don’t). But no matter what you call her, she’s a good lawyer and an even better friend. So when the marriage of her two closest pals ends in divorce, Bea picks a side and storms the office of attorney Nathan Asher to tell him exactly what he can do with his alimony petition. Unfortunately, what should end with a few choice words soon spirals into uncharted territory when Nate shows up at her NYU Law office a few days later as a newly-minted adjunct professor—and her new colleague. Bea still hates Nathan, of course. But between weekly meetings and networking events, walks around Washington Square Park and late-night pizza, that hate begins to feel a lot like something else. And as uncomfortable truths emerge about the divorce that started it all, she might have to choose between her friends’ happily ever after and her own for the very first time.

Nevhodná partie - Eloisa James

Romantický milostný příběh z prostředí anglické aristokracie. Autorka ho vypráví v historických souvislostech poslední čtvrtiny 18. století. Pohledný, švihácký dědic vévodství lord Roland Northbridge Wilde – pro přátele North – se po dvou letech vrací z války do Anglie, odkud odjel poté, co ho opustila snoubenka Diana Belgravová, a zjišťuje, že jeho pověst mezi lidmi je hodně pošramocená: společenská smetánka o něm tvrdí, že je příliš nespoutaný, aby se mohl oženit. Diana nikdy nezamýšlela pošpinit Northovo jméno, ale když unáhleně přijímala místo guvernantky v zámku Lindow, aby zachránila bezmocné dítě, neměla čas zvážit následky svého rozhodnutí. Všichni učiní nejhorší možné závěry, pokud jde o otce dítěte, což v Dianě zanechá pocit hořkosladké lítosti. Když dá North jasně najevo, že Dianu stále chce, ať už tím vyvolá skandál, nebo ne, Dianu stojí téměř nadlidské úsilí, aby nevěnovala své srdce muži, za kterého se stále nehodlá provdat. North jako zatvrzelý bojovník je však rozhodnutý zvítězit. Je ochotný riskovat všechno, aby Diana patřila jemu.

Romantický příběh s jiskřivými dialogy plnými francouzského šarmu a suchého britského humoru; odehrává se po napoleonských válkách v březnu až říjnu 1816 ve Velké Británii.*****Giles Renwick, hrabě z Lilfordu, ze sebe nikdy neudělal hlupáka kvůli ženě – dokud nepotkal lady Yasmin Régnierovou. Yasmin pro něho není vhodná žena v žádném ohledu: ne jako manželka, rozhodně ne jako milenka (je dáma!), dokonce ani jako přítelkyně, protože jeden druhého nesnášejí. Její šaty mají příliš hluboký výstřih a navlhčené sukně jí obepínají hezká stehna. Ráda klevetí – a chichotá se. Není důstojná ani zdvořilá, a dokonce ani rodilá Britka, neboť její otec má francouzské předky. Nemluvě o tom, že její matka byla jednou z Napoleonových milenek, což se lady Yasmin nesnaží tajit. Proč ji tedy požádal o ruku? A co udělá, jestli řekne ano?

Fantasy from Ladies in Lavender - Hess Nigel

Fantasy for violin and piano was originally written for the final scene of the feature film Ladies in Lavender in which two Cornish sisters (Dames Judi Dench and Maggie Smith) attend a London premiere of a young virtuoso violinist (Daniel Bruhl) who they have been nurturing back to health after a tragic accident at sea.Although the piece was supposedly composed by the fictional Boris Danilov, the job of creating an authentic period piece of dazzling violin music fell to the film's composer, Nigel Hess, who utilized the main theme of the film, transforming the romantic major theme into an extended, bravura minor variation full of dramatic intensity and longing. It has now become a popular piece in its own right, establishing itself (not unlike the Warsaw Concerto before it) as an audience favorite in the concert repertoire.The piece was performed on the film soundtrack by Joshua Bell with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by the composer.

Style and Meaning in Late Antique Art - Sarah Bassett

How do we best see and understand the art of late antiquity? One of the perceived challenges of so doing is that this is a period whose visual production has been defined as stylistically abstract and emotionally spiritual, and therefore elusive. But this is a perception which – in her path-breaking new book – Sarah Bassett boldly challenges, offering two novel lines of interpretative inquiry. She first argues, by focusing on the art of late antiquity in late nineteenth-century Viennese intellectual and artistic circles, that that period''s definition of late antique form was in fact a response to contemporaneous political concerns, anticipating modernist thinking and artistic practice. She then suggests that late antique viewers never actually abandoned a sense of those mimetic goals that characterized Greek and Roman habits of representation. This interpretative shift is transformative because it allows us to understand the full range and richness of late antique visual experience.
