Ve druhém svazku své "střihové" trilogie nás William S. Burroughs ještě více vtahuje do hrozivě temného světa nepředstavitelných bojů s přízračnými postavami z galaktického podsvětí, jež mají jedinou touhu: zničit náš svět a přetvořit jej v místo, proti němuž je peklo rajskou zahradou. Zároveň demaskuje všechny ty parasitující instituce, korporace a správní rady, zrádce humanity i cynické lháře - a vyzývá-li k aktivnímu odboji, není to patetický apel, ale strohá výzva postavit se hrozivé konspiraci. Burroughsova Nova Express je dnes ještě aktuálnější než v době, kdy tyto temné vize budoucnosti psal - jeho prorocké texty jsou totiž především varováním, zároveň nesené výraznou a zcela osobitou poetikou. Pohled do zrcadla, jež William Burroughs nastavuje je možná děsivý, možná hrůzný, rozhodně však pravdivý.

Již od svého vstupu do světa literatury budil americký prozaik William S. Burroughs náležitý rozruch - a i to je dosti slabý výraz na emoce, jež jeho knihy provázely. Byly zakazovány a nechápány, autor sám byl jedněmi zatracován a proklínán jako šarlatán a literární pervert, jinými naopak vynášen jako věrozvěst nových pohledů i přístupů. Bylo tomu již v případě jeho skandály proslaveného arcidíla Nahý oběd, a podobné reakce provázely i jeho další román Hebká mašinka (The Soft Machine). Nejen že zde Burroughs rozpoutává orgie fantazie překračující veškeré hranice a tabu, jeho postavy putují časem, svádějí boje se zrůdnými silami a magií, to vše na pozadí dusné halucinující atmosféry a neskutečných kulis - zároveň nám ovšem Burroughs předvádí, jak bojovat s ovládáním myšlení, rozkrývá mechanismy veškerých závislostí a dokazuje, v čem spočívá jeho největší síla: v propojení naprosté autorské odvahy a subverze s mistrným literárním ztvárněním i těch zdánlivě nejnemožnějších idejí.

Nejslavnější Burroughsova kniha, "satirická fantazie" z roku 1959, jejíž původní vydání se dočkalo soudního procesu i zákazu prodeje pro údajnou obscenitu. Dnes je považována za mistrovské dílo, v němž se mísí pekelné litanie ze světa feťáckých vizí s drsnými vtipy, nekompromisní satirou a prorockými vizemi budoucí společnosti, před kterými by i George Orwell oněměl.

Ve vyvrcholení Burroughsovy trilogie se v kratších prózách opět pohybujeme v krajích děsivých nočních můr, vzdáleně připomínající pralesy Jižní Ameriky, v mimozemském prostoru, ale i v ulicích Londýna a jeho podsvětí. Burroughs své povídky opět zaplnil fantastickými postavami z ještě fantastičtějších - a hrozivějších - světů a jeho mistrná koláž, pracující s prvky populární kultury, reklamy, sci-fi a detektivní prózy a popisující neznámé drogy i sex ve všech podobách, nemá za cíl šokovat, ale poukazovat. Varovat. William Burroughs je zcela nenapodobitelný, a to nejen ve svém psaní, hlavně ale v síle a pravdivosti svých idejí, které se nám snaží předat - dříve, než bude pozdě.

First published in 1963 and representing Burroughs s literary breakthrough in the UK, Dead Fingers Talk is, in the words of Burroughs scholar Oliver Harris, a prophetic work of haunting power, a unique experiment in writing that has for too long been overlooked.

Originally written in 1952 but not published till 1985, Queer is an enigma - both an unflinching autobiographical self-portrait and a coruscatingly political novel, Burroughs' only realist love story and a montage of comic-grotesque fantasies that paved the way for his masterpiece, Naked Lunch. Set in Mexico City during the early fifties, Queer follows William Lee's hopeless pursuit of desire from bar to bar in the American expatriate scene. As Lee breaks down, the trademark Burroughsian voice emerges; a maniacal mix of self-lacerating humor and the Ugly American at his ugliest.A haunting tale of possession and exorcism, Queer is also a novel with a history of secrets, as this new edition reveals.

Kdo by neznal Tarzana (Bílou kůži), muže, kterého v africkém pralese vychovali lidoopi? Tarzan of the Apes (česky Tarzan, syn divočiny nebo Tarzan z rodu Opů) vyšel jako úvodní díl v roce 1912 v časopisu All-Story, knižně pak v roce 1914. Následovalo dalších dvacet tři dílů, poslední dva vyšly až po smrti jejich autora, amerického romanopisce Edgara Rice Burroughse (1875 – 1950), a další čtyři díly byly napsané jinými autory. V knihách vystupuje inteligentní, neohrožený a spravedlivý Tarzan, hovořící mnoha jazyky lidskými i zvířecími. Zažívá spoustu dobrodružství, ať už sám nebo se svou americkou ženou Jane a jejich synem. Tarzan je označován za nejznámější literární postavu vůbec a existuje více jeho filmových zpracování než například u příběhu o Drákulovi. Kromě filmu se Tarzan objevil i v komiksu, četných televizních a rozhlasových zpracováních, na divadle i v počítačových hrách. E. R. Burroughs byl plodný autor. Napsal více než 80 románů. Kromě Tarzana (původně zvažoval i jména Zantar nebo Tublat Zan) napsal science-fiction sérii s Johnem Carterem, který se záhadnou silou dostal na Mars, či sérii příběhů z podzemního světa Pellucidar.

The Wordsworth Classics' Shakespeare's Series presents a newly-edited sequence of William Shakespeare's works. The textual editing takes account of recent scholarship while giving the material a careful reappraisal. The Tempest is the most lyrical, profound and fascinating of Shakespeare's late comedies. Prospero, long exiled from Italy with his daughter Miranda, seeks to use his magical powers to defeat his former enemies. Eventually, having proved merciful, he divests himself of that magic, his `art', and prepares to return to the mainland. The Tempest has often been regarded as Shakespeare's `farewell to the stage' before his retirement. In the past, critics emphasised the romantically beautiful features of The Tempest, seeing it as an imaginative fantasia. In recent decades, however, The Tempest has also been treated as a potently political drama which offers controversial insights into colonialism and racism. Frequently staged and diversely filmed, the play has influenced numerous poets and novelists.

eBook: We all know what it's like to be in love, but when love is placed within the context of anxieties, desires and beliefs, will it survive?The sisters Bianca and Katherine might be as opposite as chalk and cheese, yet marriage finds its way into both their lives. Prompted by the notion of a love free of idealism, Petruchio is ready to marry Katherine with or without her will. Can she learn to love him? Or will marriage without love always be filled with terror and deception?Although believed to be written in the late 1500s, this classic romance is still very relevant today. Whether you will perceive Katherina and Petruchio's relationship as romantic and energetic or violent and oppressive, this play unmistakably offers us a perpetual take on the major theme: the battle of the sexes. But unlike most modern day romances emotional desires are put second in this play's exploration of love, marriage and courtship.If you saw and loved director Gil Junger's "10 Things I Hate About You", this is the best-seller behind the film.
