Příběh kapesních hodinek přecházejících z ruky do ruky v dobách dobývání Divokého západu… Čtrnáct povídek obsažených v Go West Young Man zachycuje dobytí Divokého západu, počínaje rokem 1763 a konče rokem 1938. Od potyček na březích Velkých jezer až po žhavou mexickou poušť sledujeme osudy různých postav. Trapeři, průkopníci, indiánské kmeny, zoufalci a prostitutky – všichni bojují o přežití na Velkých pláních nebo v rychle rostoucích městečkách.

eBook: Confessions of a Young Man (1888) is a memoir by George Moore. Originally written in French, it is a record of his life in Paris as a young man with money and dreams to spare. Controversial for its depictions of bohemianism and pointed critique of Victorian morality, Confessions of a Young Man has been recognized as an invaluable portrait of nineteenth century Paris and the geniuses who struggled to reshape art in their image. Degas. Renoir. Monet. Zola. Their names are now immortal, instant reminders of their influence on the visual and literary arts. In the 1870s, however, and throughout their lifetimes, they were artists struggling to hone their craft and gain recognition for their work. Into their world came the young George Moore, an Irishman who thought he was a painter and would eventually make his own name as a pioneering modernist writer. In Confessions of a Young Man, he offers his experience and impressions of bohemian life in Paris, a place where the temptations of flesh, drugs, and alcohol led many a young artist astray. In this murky world, he will draw inspiration for his groundbreaking stories and novels in the realist style. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of George Moore’s Confessions of a Young Man is a classic of Irish literature reimagined for modern readers.

I hadn't had a haircut in forty days and forty nights, and I was beginning to look like several violinists out of work.Depression-era San Francisco, home to the lost souls of many races: immigrants, struggling writers and heartsick adolescents, collecting in automats, nightschools, movies and barbershops, working in vineyards, telegram exchanges and as salesmen - and always revelling in being alive. A bestseller on publication in 1934, The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze was the debut collection by the Pulitzer Prize-winning (and rejecting) Armenian-American writer William Saroyan. Fusing Whitman's transcendence with the eccentric characterisation of Steinbeck and Salinger, and foreshadowing the rhapsodies of the Beats, his prose is a heart-expanding experience that intoxicates to this day.

Adrienne Young, autorka úspešnej série Fable, sa vracia do sveta Úžin s tajomným príbehom SvätecElias sa ešte ako malý chlapec na vlastnej koži presvedčil, čo sa stane, keď nedáva pozor na to, čo sa hovorí v starých príbehoch.O deväť rokov neskôr sa z prístavu do prístavu šíria príbehy o synovi rybára, ktorý dokáže vyviaznuť aj z tých najdesivejších búrok, jeho oddanosť mýtom a viere mu prináša povesť sviniara, ktorý má z plavieb Úžinami nesmiernu radosť. Teraz Eliasa delí len pár dní od toho, aby získal všetko, o čom kedysi jeho nebohý otec sníval: vlastnú loď, posádku a obchodnú licenciu, vďaka ktorej sa má stať jedným z prvých kupcov pochádzajúcich z Úžin. No keď mu skríži cestu mladá hľadačka z Bezmenného mora, ktorá skrýva viac než len jedno tajomstvo, Eliasova viera podstúpi skúšku, o akej sa mu ani nesnívalo.Čím viac ho to k nej ťahá, tým viac sa vzďaľuje od všetkého, na čom počas posledných troch rokov tak tvrdo pracoval. Elias je nebezpečne blízko k tomu, aby zopakoval svoje chyby a aby na vlastné oči opäť videl, aké kruté dokáže byť more zaplavené žiarlivosťou.Ak má prežiť zaslúžený trest, ktorý si preňho more nachystalo, bude sa musieť rozhodnúť, čo chce viac – lásku dievčaťa, ktoré má moc zmeniť ich rozpadajúci sa svet, alebo posvätnú vieru, ktorá mu vyslúžila prezývku, pod ktorou ho všetci poznajú – Svätec.

Druhý diel románu Fable s názvom Menovkyňa je strhujúcim rozuzlením príbehu o mladej a neskrotnej dievčine, ktorá si hľadá miesto v drsnom svete kupcov. Keď sa Fable podarilo dostať loď Marigold spod nadvlády svojho otca, mohla spolu s jej posádkou začať odznova. Ich sloboda však netrvala dlho, pretože sa stali pešiakmi na šachovnici hrdloreza s neslávnou povesťou, Zolu, ktorý zajal Fable na svojej lodi. Fable dokonca zisťuje, že Clove, muž, ktorý ju vychovával a bol blízkym priateľom jej otca, je kormidelníkom na tejto lodi. Aby sa Fable dostala späť do Úžin za Westom, musí pomôcť Zolovi spečatiť partnerstvo s Holanďankou. Táto mocná obchodníčka s drahými kameňmi je však aj niekým iným, než sa zdá. Ako sa Fable postupne ponára do sveta plného zrád a klamstiev, zisťuje, že tajomstvá, ktoré si jej matka vzala do hrobu, teraz ohrozujú tých, na ktorých jej záleží. Ak ich má zachrániť, musí riskovať všetko – vrátane mladíka, ktorého ľúbi, a domova, ktorý konečne našla. Jej jediným východiskom je použiť svoje schopnosti a mágiu na nájdenie polnočného kameňa – legendárneho drahokamu, ktorý možno ani neexistuje.

A charmingly funny picture book that celebrates the unconditional love a family has for their slurpy, burpy and boisterous new baby!Smriti was inspired to write Our Gorgeous Baby after reading Shakespeare’s Sonnet 130. With lyrical humour the story reflects the routine chaos a new baby brings upon a family and – in so doing – shows that even the slurpiest, burpiest, noisiest, smelliest and messiest of babies (multiple night-time wakings included) is no challenge whatsoever to the unbreakable bond and endless and unconditional love, care and affection a family has for their gorgeous baby.
