"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?

Collected Poems, arranged chronologically, shows the full range of his sparkling verse, by turns scabrous and melancholy, satirical and playful.'Scathingly funny ... bawdy and tragic, unflinching and unapologetic, culpable and morally acute ... Amis's poems rush headlong into the messiness of life' New Criterion'A contender for the title of the most accomplished and least self-satisfied poet of his generation' Clive James

Unlawful Killings - Wendy Joseph
THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERWINNER OF THE CWA GOLD DAGGER FOR NON-FICTION 2023''Wendy Joseph''s gripping account of the law at work reads like a cliffhanger.'' Sunday Times''Absolutely superb. 5 stars for sheer readability alone. Her Honour entertains as she educates us about murder, about the law and about how we human beings are shaped as we create the culture we live with.'' PHILIPPA PERRY, author of THE BOOK YOU WISH YOUR PARENTS HAD READ___________________________________________________________________________________''Every day in the UK lives are suddenly, brutally, wickedly taken away. Victims are shot or stabbed. Less often they are strangled or suffocated or beaten to death. Rarely they are poisoned, pushed off high buildings, drowned or set alight. Then there are the many who are killed by dangerous drivers, or corporate gross negligence. There are a lot of ways you can kill someone. I know because I''ve seen most of them at close quarters.''High-profile murder cases all too often grab our attention in dramatic media headlines - for every unlawful death tells a story. But, unlike most of us, a judge doesn''t get to turn the page and move on. Nor does the defendant, or the family of the victim, nor the many other people who populate the court room.And yet, each of us has a vested interest in what happens there. And while most people have only the sketchiest idea of what happens inside a Crown Court, any one of us could end up in the witness-box or even in the dock.With breath-taking skill and deep compassion, the author describes how cases unfold and illustrates exactly what it''s like to be a murder trial judge and a witness to human good and bad. Sometimes very bad.The fracture lines that run through our society are becoming harder and harder to ignore. From a unique vantage point, the author warns that we do so at our peril._____________________________________________________________________________________________''The most exceptional book I have read in a long time.''

Most importantly, you''ll learn how to stop putting others'' needs before your own, and manage daily stressors with competence, clarity, and optimism.Self-care means honoring and respecting the self. But when you grow up with emotionally immature parents, you are taught that setting limits is selfish and uncaring. You are taught to seek approval instead of authenticity in relationships. And you are taught that empathy and emotional awareness are liabilities, rather than assets. But there''s another way to go through life-one in which you can take care of yourself, first and foremost.Let this book guide you toward a new way of being.

Šťastný Jim - Amis Kingsley - audiokniha
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.

The Water -Babies - Kingsley Charles
''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.

Inside Story - Martin Amis
'Utterly compelling' Guardian Life...is shapeless, it does not point to and gather round anything, it does not cohere. Artistically, it's dead. Life's dead. So begins a love letter to life, a resuscitation of sorts, encountering vibrant characters from Saul Bellow, to Philip Larkin to Iris Murdoch and Elizabeth Jane Howard, and to the person who captivated Amis' twenties, the alluringly amoral Phoebe Phelps. Amis addresses our burning questions: how to live, how to grieve, and how to die?

House of Meetings - Martin Amis
‘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
