As he gets swept up in his quest, he finds that the journey is also one of self-discovery, as he reencounters all the decisions he has made - and not made - in his life, and faces the roads not travelled.

Night Train to the Stars - Kenji Miyazawa
Japanese fairy tales - enchanting, enigmatic stories of animals, human beings and the great natural world. Dark and innocent, sublime and whimsical, Miyazawa''s stories have the ageless feel of the best fairy tales. There are animal allegories such as ''The Ungrateful Rat'' where a rude rodent insults all the objects he meets - until he meets the Rat Trap. There are morality tales such as ''The Restaurant of Many Orders'', where two hunters become the hunted. There are also transcendent stories of childhood and mortality like Miyazawa''s best-known ''Night Train to the Stars'', where a magical steam train carries children through the night and up to the heavens.These stories reveal the unique brilliance of one of Japan''s most beloved early twentieth-century writers.WITH A FOREWORD BY DAVID MITCHELL AND AN INTRODUCTION BY KAORI NAGAI''Kenji Miyazawa fables are international-class'' David Mitchell''For readers who relish the disturbing material of fairy tale, the specificity and surprise of tanka, collisions of the everyday with the supernatural and glimpses of Japan right on the brink of industrialization, Kenji Miyazawa''s masterly stories will be a delight'' New York Times''Few works have given me so much pleasure (and hard work) as the tales of Miyazawa Kenji [...] more ...

Je to manipulace? - Pascale Chapaux-Morelli
Abychom se vyhnuli manipulaci ze strany druhých, musíme poznat, co si ten druhý skutečně myslí, co zamýšlí a co ho motivuje. Tuto analýzu druhého provádíme s využitím své emoční inteligence, díky znalosti přesvědčovacích technik a typických profilů manipulátorů, dešifrováním řeči těla. Musíme se ale také naučit říkat „ne“, ovládat slova, vyvarovat se citové závislosti a chránit svou identitu. Na příkladech různých situací, ať už je to okouzlení druhým člověkem v milostném vztahu, v přátelství, během obchodní transakce, nebo v konfliktu kolem dětí, nám autorka poskytuje nezbytné nástroje k tomu, jak analyzovat druhé a vyhnout se manipulaci z jejich strany.Pascale Chapaux-Morelli je francouzská psycholožka, přednáší na Paris 8 Université a je autorkou dalších knih o manipulaci.

The Conversation Train - Joel Shaul
This inventive colour picture book uses the metaphor of a train to teach basic conventions of conversation to children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Engines are like greetings; they get the train going. Freight wagons are like different speakers'' turns; it is good to have at least a few when you are in conversation. A set of points guiding a train from one track to another is like a tactful change in the topic of conversation. When a conversation veers off-topic it is like a derailed train. As well as attractive colour photographs of trains, the book contains engaging photocopiable worksheets and colouring pages to help promote skill generalisation. This highly visual approach to conversation is ideally suited to children with ASDs aged approximately 5-13.

Despite the all-pervading influence of television ninety per cent of people in Britain still listen to the radio, clocking up over a billion hours of listening between us every week. It’s a background to all our lives: we wake up to our clock radios, we have the radio on in the kitchen as we make the tea, it’s on at our workplaces and in our cars. From Listen With Mother to the illicit thrill of tuning into pirate stations like Radio Caroline; from receiving a musical education from John Peel or having our imagination unlocked by Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy; from school-free summers played out against a soundtrack of Radio One and Test Match Special to more grown-up soundtracks of the Today programme on Radio 4 and the solemn, rhythmic intonation of the shipping forecast – in many ways, our lives can be measured in kilohertz.Yet radio is changing because the way we listen to the radio is changing. Last year the number of digital listeners at home exceeded the number of analogue listeners for the first time, meaning the pop and crackle and the age of stumbling upon something by chance is coming to an ...

On The Slow Train - Michael Williams
''A trip back in time'' DAILY TELEGRAPHA love of railways, a love of history, a love of nostalgia.______________________________Get ready to board the slow train to another era, to a time when travel meant more than hurrying from one place to the next. On the Slow Train will reconnect you with that long-missed need for escape, and reminds us to lift our heads from the daily grind and remember that there are still places in Britain where we can take the time to stop and stare. This book is a paean to another age: before milk churns, train porters and cats on seats were replaced by security announcements and Burger King wrappers. These 12 spectacular journeys will help free us from what Baudelaire denounced as ''the horrible burden of time.''___________________________________''Captivating'' SUNDAY EXPRESS''Deep in our soul, the railways represent an idyll that we love'' INDEPENDENT''A magical world, barely changed since the golden age of rail'' DAILY MAIL''Superb'' RAILYWAY MAGAZINE''Memory lane . . .

The Train Was on Time - Heinrich Böll
''Böll''s novel blows a stent in the human heart. . . It feels more necessary than ever.'' Anna Funder, from the introduction''This is the best book I have read this year; not by miles, but by whole astronomical units; I am stunned by it as if by a blow. It is *astonishing* to the extent that I cannot convey to you its power'' Sarah Perry, bestselling author of The Essex Serpent and Melmoth Twenty-four-year-old Andreas, a disillusioned German soldier, is travelling on a troop train to the Eastern Front when he has an awful premonition that he will die in exactly five days. As he hurtles towards his death, he reflects on the chaos around him - the naïve soldiers, the painfully thin girl who pours his coffee, the ruined countryside - with sudden, heart-breaking poignancy. Arriving in Poland the night before he is certain he will die, he meets Olina, a beautiful prostitute, and together they attempt to escape his fate...''His work reaches the highest level of creative originality and stylistic perfection'' Daily Telegraph''Boll combines a mammoth intelligence with a literary outlook that is masterful and unique'' Joseph Heller, author of Catch-22''My most-admired contemporary novelist'' John Ashbery''From the moment ...

Now a popular Amazon TV show.The night belongs to them, and it will be a night eternal…After the blasts, it was all over. Nuclear Winter has settled upon the earth. Except for one hour of sunlight a day, the whole world is plunged into darkness. It is a near-perfect environment for vampires. They have won.

Like animals, they are farmed, harvested for the sick pleasure of the Master Race.Almost, but not all. Somewhere out there, hiding for their lives, is a desperate network of free humans, continuing the seemingly hopeless resistance. Everyday people, with no other options – among them Dr Ephraim Goodweather, his son Zack, the veteran exterminator Vassily, and former gangbanger Gus.To be free, they need a miracle, they need divine intervention. But Salvation can be a twisted game – one in which they may be played like pawns in a battle of Good and Evil. And at what cost…?

Night Trains - Andrew Martin
Night trains have long fascinated us with the possibilities of their private sleeping compartments, gilded dining cars, champagne bars and wealthy travellers. Authors from Agatha Christie to Graham Greene have used night trains to tell tales of romance, intrigue and decadence against a rolling background of dramatic landscapes. The reality could often be as thrilling: early British travellers on the Orient Express were advised to carry a revolver (as well as a teapot).In Night Trains, Andrew Martin attempts to relive the golden age of the great European sleeper trains by using their modern-day equivalents. This is no simple matter. The night trains have fallen on hard times, and the services are disappearing one by one. But if the Orient Express experience can only be recreated by taking three separate sleepers, the intriguing characters and exotic atmospheres have survived. Whether the backdrop is 3am at a Turkish customs post, the sun rising over the Riviera, or the constant twilight of a Norwegian summer night, Martin rediscovers the pleasures of a continent connected by rail. By tracing the history of the sleeper trains, he reveals much of the recent history of Europe itself. The original sleepers helped break down national barriers and ...

SAS The Great Train Raid - Damien Lewis
So secret was this mission, the SAS seizure of a train to raid deep into enemy territory to liberate a concentration camp, that it wasn''t until 1968 - twenty-seven years after the formation of the SAS - that a short mention of it was made in the Rover and Wizard annual, under the headline ''Who Dares Wins''. No further published record exists. Best-selling author Damien Lewis has unearthed the full incredible story from long-hidden files and first hand-testimony, his latest elite forces narrative delivering a scintillating tale of bravery, daring and determination which simply beggars belief. This is the SAS at their very finest; there is no other mission like it from the Second World War.
