The Long and Winding Road - Lesley Pearse

One of the world’s bestselling storytellers, Lesley Pearse writes brilliantly about survivors. Why? Because she is one herself . . . ‘Inspiring and hopeful, this heartwarming memoir will have you captivated’ Woman‘An incredible memoir‘ Sun‘[Lesley] is a great storyteller, and like all good stories The Long and Winding Road concludes with one terrific twist’ Daily Mail--Born during the Second World War, Lesley’s innocence came to an abrupt end when a neighbour found her, aged 3, coatless in the snow. The mother she’d been unable to wake had been dead for days. Sent to an orphanage, Lesley soon learned adults couldn’t always be trusted. As a teenager in the swinging sixties, she took herself to London. Here, the second great tragedy of her life occurred. Falling pregnant, she was sent to a mother and baby home, and watched helplessly as her newborn was taken from her. But like so many of her generation, Lesley had to carry on. She was, after all, a true survivor. Marriage and children followed – and all the while she nurtured a dream: to be a writer. Yet it wasn’t until at the age of 48 that her stories – of women struggling in a difficult world – found a publisher, and the bestseller lists beckoned. As heartbreaking as it is heartwarming, Lesley’s story really is A Long and Winding Road with surprises and uplifting hope around every corner . . . --‘I couldn’t put this book down. Although harrowing at times, Lesley’s indomitable spirit shines through. What an inspiration, what a book!’ Katie Fforde‘Searingly honest, and fabulously entertaining, Lesley's life story is a poignant and powerful story that is truly unputdownable’ Milly Johnson‘A totally gripping read, by turns tragic, mad-cap, heartbreaking and mind-blowing. And anyone who can read that final chapter without bursting into happy tears has to have a heart of stone’ Jill Mansell‘An incredible life story from a literary icon, Lesley Pearse’s truth is even more gripping than her fiction’ Veronica Henry‘This inspiring, heart-warming, extraordinary memoir will have you captivated’ Woman's Weekly‘Humorous and heartbreaking, Lesley opens up to her readers in a way that is rare and very special. I was so gripped I read it twice’ Kate Furnivall‘What a roller coaster of a ride. I couldn't do anything else until I'd finished this book. Gripping, heart wrenching. A true life Woman of Substance. It was an amazing read’ Jo Thomas

Look Back in Anger - John Osborne

Anyone who’s never watched someone die is suffering from a pretty bad case of virginity. Look Back in Anger premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 1956. ‘John Osborne didn’t contribute to British theatre: he set off a landmine called Look Back in Anger and blew most of it up.’ Alan Sillitoe ‘A story of youthful insecurity inflamed by lack of opportunity and the terrifying, destabilizing force of love . . . Jimmy Porter could fill an opera house with his bellowing hunger for a bigger, better life and a loyal love to share it with.’ New York Times ‘Look Back in Anger presents post-war youth as it really is. To have done this at all would be a signal achievement; to have done it in a first play is a minor miracle. All the qualities are there, qualities one had despaired of ever seeing on the stage – the drift towards anarchy, the instinctive leftishness, the automatic rejection of “official” attitudes, the surrealist sense of humour, the casual promiscuity, the sense of lacking a crusade worth fighting for and, underlying all these, the determination that no one who dies shall go unmourned . . . I doubt if I could love anyone who did not wish to see Look Back in Anger. It is the best young play of its decade.’ Kenneth Tynan, Observer ‘How bracing, and, yes, even shocking, its white-hot fury remains.’ The Times This edition includes an introduction by Michael Billington and an afterword by David Hare.

Don't Look Back In Anger - Daniel Rachel

The nineties was the decade when British culture reclaimed its position at the artistic centre of the world. Not since the ''Swinging Sixties'' had art, comedy, fashion, film, football, literature and music interwoven into a blooming of national self-confidence. It was the decade of Lad Culture and Girl Power; of Blur vs Oasis. When fashion runways shone with British talent, Young British Artists became household names, football was ''coming home'' and British film went worldwide. From Old Labour''s defeat in 1992 through to New Labour''s historic landslide in 1997, Don''t Look Back In Anger chronicles the Cool Britannia age when the country united through a resurgence of patriotism and a celebration of all things British. But it was also an era of false promises and misplaced trust, when the weight of substance was based on the airlessness of branding, spin and the first stirrings of celebrity culture. A decade that started with hope then ended with the death of the ''people''s princess'' and 9/11 - an event that redefined a new world order. Through sixty-seven voices that epitomise the decade - including Tony Blair, John Major, Noel Gallagher, Tracey Emin, Keith Allen, Meera Syal, David Baddiel, Irvine Welshand Steve Coogan - we re-live the epic highs and crashing lows of one of the most eventful periods in British history. Today, in an age where identity dominates the national agenda, Don''t Look Back In Anger is a necessary and compelling historical document.

Look Who's Back - Timur Vermes

HE''S BACK AND HE''S FUHRIOUS!"Desperately funny . . . An ingenious comedy of errors." --Janet Maslin, The New York Times"Satire at its best." --NewsweekIn this record-breaking bestseller, Timur Vermes imagines what would happen if Adolf Hilter reawakened in present-day Germany: YouTube stardom.Adolf Hitler wakes up on a patch of open ground, alive and well. It''s the summer of 2011 and things have changed--no Eva Braun, no Nazi party, no war. Hitler barely recognizes his beloved Fatherland, filled with immigrants and run by a woman.People certainly recognize him--as a flawless impersonator who refuses to break character. The unthinkable happens, and the ranting Hitler goes viral, becomes a YouTube star, gets his own TV show, and people begin to listen. But the Fuhrer has another program with even greater ambition in mind--to set the country he finds in shambles back to rights.With daring dark humor, Look Who''s Back is a perceptive study of the cult of personality and of how individuals rise to fame and power in spite of what they preach.

Doba stounová - Lesley-Ann Jonesová, Michael Talián

Svůj první koncert odehráli Rollin' Stones v londýnském jazzovém klubu Marquee dne 12. července 1962. Časem přibylo „g", rozhořela se jiskra a jejich osud byl zpečetěn. Pětice bílých britských kluků si vytkla za cíl hrát hudbu černé Ameriky. Přestože je odsuzovali za mravní ohrožování mládeže, Rolling Stones vytvořili jedny z nejúchvatnějších hudebních nahrávek všech dob. Dnes jsou snad ještě hlasitější a vlivnější než kdykoli dříve - Kameny sice obrůstají mechem, ale valí se dál. Jak se z největších odpůrců establishmentu stala globální značka, kterou zná celý svět? A za jakou cenu? Lesley-Ann Jonesová sleduje tuto rozporuplnou, znepokojivou a nezničitelnou kapelu v obdobích naděje, slávy i exilu přes léta, kdy se z ní stal moloch, až k dnešnímu zúčtování s rockem… Tady jsou Rolling Stones, jak je ještě neznáte - hodní, zlí a často oškliví. Lesley-Ann Jonesová je novinářka, moderátorka, hlasatelka a autorka životopisných bestsellerů jako Proč zahynul John Lennon? Konečný portrét hudební legendy a Freddie Mercury: Bohémská rapsodie jednoho života.

Love of My Life - Lesley-Ann Jonesová

''EYEWITNESS GOLD'' SUNDAY TIMESWHO - OR WHAT - WAS THE REAL LOVE OF FREDDIE MERCURY''S LIFE? THE SENSATIONAL NEW BIOGRPHAY OF QUEEN''S FRONTMAN Millions of Queen and screen fans who watched the Oscar-winning film Bohemian Rhapsody believe that Mary Austin, the woman he could never quite let go of, was the love of Freddie Mercury''s life. But the truth is infinitely more complicated.Best-selling biographer and music writer Lesley-Ann Jones explores the charismatic frontman''s romantic encounters, from his boarding school years in Panchgani, India to his tragic, final, bed-ridden days in his magnificent London mansion. She reveals why none of his love interests ever perfected the art of being Freddie''s life partner.In Love of My Life, the author follows him through his obsessions with former shop girl Mary, German actress Barbara Valentin and Irish-born barber boyfriend Jim Hutton. She explores his adoration of globally fêted Spanish soprano Montserrat Caballé. She delves into his intimate friendship with Elton John, and probes his imperishable bonds with his fellow band members. She deconstructs his complicated relationship with the ''food of love'' - his music - and examines closely his voracious appetite for - what some would call his fatal addiction to - sex. Which of these was the real love of Freddie Mercury''s life? Was any of them? Drawing on personal interviews and first-hand encounters, this moving book brings to the fore a host of Freddie''s lesser-known loves, weaving them in and out of the passions that consumed him. The result, a mesmerising portrait of a legendary rock star, is unputdownable. Love of My Life, published during the year of the 30th anniversary of his death and that would have seen his 75th birthday, is Lesley-Ann''s personal and compassionate tribute to an artist she has revered for as long as she has written about music and musicians.

The Stone Age - Lesley-Ann Jonesová

From Sunday Times bestselling author Lesley-Ann JonesOn 12 July 1962, the Rollin' Stones performed their first-ever gig at London's Marquee jazz club. Down the line, a 'g' was added, a spark was lit and their destiny was sealed. No going back.These five white British kids set out to play the music of black America. They honed a style that bled bluesy undertones into dark insinuations of women, sex and drugs. Denounced as 'corruptors of youth' and 'messengers of the devil', they created some of the most thrilling music ever recorded. Now, their sound and attitude seem louder and more influential than ever. Elvis is dead and the Beatles are over, but Jagger and Richards bestride the world. The Stones may be gathering moss, but on they roll. Yet how did the ultimate anti-establishment misfits become the global brand we know today? Who were the casualties, and what are the forgotten legacies? Can the artist ever be truly divisible from the art? Lesley-Ann Jones's new history tracks this contradictory, disturbing, granitic and unstoppable band through hope, glory and exile, into the juggernaut years and beyond into rock's ongoing reckoning . . . where the Stones seem more at odds than ever with the values and heritage against which they have always rebelled. Good, bad and often ugly, here are the Rolling Stones as never before.

Ride a White Swan - Lesley-Ann Jonesová

*** By the Sunday Times bestselling author of BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY ***From mod folk artist to flower power pixie elfin to the king of glam rockers, Marc Bolan was the ultimate chameleon. His far-reaching musical and stylistic influence is more relevant today than ever with hits such as ''Ride A White Swan'', ''Children Of The Revolution'', ''Get It On'' and ''Hot Love'' as fresh and exhilarating as when first released. At the peak of his popularity during his lifetime Bolan was outselling Jimi Hendrix and The Who, and yet relatively little is really known about the hypnotic, enigmatic 20th century boy turned 21st century icon. At last, in the 35th anniversary year of his tragic death, Marc Bolan represents the definite biography. Here rock biographer, Lesley-Ann Jones, paints a meticulous portrait of the T-Rex front man. From his childhood growing up in Hackney to his untimely death at the age of 29, Bolan''s life was one of relentless experimentation and metamorphoses. Hallucinogenic drugs, wizardry and levitation, alcoholism, tax evasion and a spectacular fall from grace were to punctuate his short life, as he continued to strive to reinvent himself and his music over and over again. Lesley-Ann has been granted access to those who knew Bolan best, including his partner and the mother of his only son, Gloria Jones and his brother, Harry Feld.

Shot through with magic and a powerful sense of yearning, this is a diverse and dazzling collection that showcases the work of a major new talent at the beginning of a stellar literary career.''When Enebeli Okwara sent his girl out in the world, he did not know what the world did to daughters''. The daughters, wives and mothers in Lesley Nneka Arimah''s remarkable debut collection find themselves in extraordinary situations: a woman whose mother''s ghost appears to have stepped out of a family snapshot, another who, exhausted by childlessness, resorts to fashioning a charmed infant out of human hair, a ''grief worker'' with a miraculous ability to remove emotional pain - at a price. What unites them is the toughness of the world they inhabit, a world where the future is uncertain, opportunities are scant, and fortunes change quicker than the flick of a switch. Characterised by their vividness, immediacy and the author''s seemingly endless ability to conjure worlds at once familiar and unsettlingly different, this is a remarkable debut from a ''master storyteller'' (Independent)
