Dorothy Parker, more than any of her contemporaries, captured the spirit of the Jazz Age in her poetry and prose, and The Collected Dorothy Parker includes an introduction by Brendan Gill in Penguin Modern Classics.Dorothy Parker was the most talked-about woman of her day, notorious as the hard-drinking bad girl with a talent for stinging repartee and endlessly quotable one-liners. The decadent 1920s and 1930s in New York were a time of great experiment and daring for women. For the rich, life seemed a continual party, but the excesses took their emotional toll. In the bitingly witty poems and stories collected here, along with her articles and reviews, she brilliantly captures the spirit of the decadent Jazz Age in New York, exposing both the dazzle and the darkness. But beneath the sharp perceptions and acidic humour, much of her work poignantly expresses the deep vulnerability of a troubled, self-destructive woman who, in the words of philosopher Irwin Edman, was ''a Sappho who could combine a heartbreak with a wisecrack''.Dorothy Parker (1893-1967) was born in West End, New Jersey, and grew up in New York. In 1916 she sold some of her poetry to the editor of Vogue, and was subsequently ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Its own kind of heaven.'' New York Times ''A most beautiful, deep, and humble study of incredibly complex people.'' Oliver Sacks Dorothy Wordsworth is an enigma. William''s beloved sister was his muse, champion, and most valued reader. She is mythologised as a self-effacing spinster and saintly amanuensis, yet Thomas De Quincey described her as ''all fire and ardour''. Dorothy sacrificed a traditional life to share in her brother''s world of words. In her Grasmere Journals, she vividly recorded their intimate life together in the Lake District, marked by a startling freedom from social convention. The tale that unfolds in her brief, electric entries reveals an intense bond between siblings, culminating in Dorothy''s collapse on William''s wedding day - after which the woman who once strode the hills in all weathers retreated inside the house for the last three decades of her life.In her magisterial biography, Frances Wilson uses the compressed emotion of Dorothy''s journals to evoke the rich interior world of a woman determined to live on her own ...

A fascinating, moving book: part history of the Foundling Hospital and the development of child psychology, part Cowan''s own story, and part that of Cowan''s mother'' LUCY SCHOLES, TELEGRAPH Growing up in a wealthy enclave outside San Francisco, Justine Cowan''s life seems idyllic.

Haunted by this secret history, Justine travels across the sea and deep into the past to discover the girl her mother once was. Here, with the vividness of a true storyteller, she pieces together her mother''s childhood alongside the history of the Foundling Hospital: from its idealistic beginnings in the eighteenth century, how it influenced some of England''s greatest creative minds - from Handel to Dickens, its shocking approach to childcare and how it survived the Blitz only to close after the Second World War.

Musela přijít vytáhlá, hubená a potetovaná ranařka z Loun, aby světu ukázala, že malá země uprostřed Evropy má už dlouho skvělý ženský (a nejen ženský) tenis, jehož reprezentantky jsou výjimečně porazitelné v týmovém Fed Cupu, který získaly v letech 2011-2015 hned pětkrát. Karolína se mimořádného úspěchu dočkala jedenadvacet let od prvního okamžiku, kdy ve čtyřech letech vzala tenisovou raketu poprvé do ruky. Post nejlepší světové hráčky si nadělila ke svým pětadvacátým narozeninám, Kája, jak jí říkají, totiž umí poctivě a systematicky na své hře pracovat.

Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers, G.K. Chesterton and nine other writers from the legendary Detection Club collaborate in this fiendishly clever but forgotten crime novel first published 80 years ago. Inspector Rudge does not encounter many cases of murder in the sleepy seaside town of Whynmouth. But when an old sailor lands a rowing boat containing a fresh corpse with a stab wound to the chest, the Inspector's investigation immediately comes up against several obstacles. The vicar, whose boat the body was found in, is clearly withholding information, and the victim's niece has disappeared. There is clearly more to this case than meets the eye - even the identity of the victim is called into doubt. Inspector Rudge begins to wonder just how many people have contributed to this extraordinary crime and whether he will ever unravel it... In 1931, Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers and ten other crime writers from the newly-formed `Detection Club' collaborated in publishing a unique crime novel. In a literary game of consequences, each author would write one chapter, leaving G.K. Chesterton to write a typically paradoxical prologue and Anthony Berkeley to tie up all the loose ends.

Kinship is a unique undertaking in the artistic career of one of Ireland’s leading artists. This book, and the artistic project it is part of, charts the act of returning a mummified body of a man to Egypt. This book, produced in conjunction with Dorothy Cross’s newest artistic project, charts this unique journey, drawing in new writings from some of the best contemporary writers from around the world, who write on and around the themes of the Kinship project – migration, home, refuge, crisis and the process of return. In 2019 Dorothy Cross recalled a story of an Egyptian mummy that had been hidden away in the archives of the anatomy department at University College Cork for decades. For Cross, the next step she needed to take seemed as natural to her as any of her work – the mummy and sarcophagus must be returned to its homeland. In beginning this act, and this journey, Cross set out to create an event across place and time, with music, literature and celebration – an act of kinship. As the body returns to its home across the Mediterranean, the Kinship project would again draw attention to the present-day plight of thousands of ...

'Karolina Ramqvist's writing is straight-talking scripture' - Heidi Julavits, author of Directions to MyselfA moving memoir detailing four generations of women through the food they share.In Bread and Milk, Karolina Ramqvist traces a girlhood through food - she recalls the bag of tangerines devoured in one sitting outside her mother's bedroom, and delighting in the luxury of that extra knob of butter on her grandmother's rice pudding.In the thin spread of low-fat margarine on her mother's bread, and the pancakes on the counter each time she will be left alone for the night, the young Karolina learns that food connects the women in her life as much as it reveals the chasms between them. When she finds herself a single parent to a daughter of her own, food becomes the way for her to show her love, but also instils a complicated inheritance.Bread and Milk is a brazenly intelligent - and mouth-wateringly delicious - reflection on love, motherhood and family from one of Sweden's most notable literary stylists.

Audiokniha: Cyklus 12 rozhlasových her o životě Ježíše Krista. Dorothy Leigh Sayersová se této látky chopila jako zkušená spisovatelka- a přitom s pokorou a s úctou k biblické látce, k níž přibrala pár legend, které se k biblickému vyprávění později připojili. V každém příběhu uslyšíte úryvek z Ježíšova příběhu, tak jak jej zachytil některý z evangelistů. Potom kulisy oživnou , rozpovídají se a vy jste svědky mezihry, která v bibli takto zapsána není.

Autorka volně navazuje na své předešlé publikace s národopisnou tematikou, respektive její nenásilnou popularizaci. Tentokrát stylizuje knihu do podoby starobylých kalendářů, které bývaly oblíbenou četbou ve venkovských domácnostech. Přístupnou a čtivou formou vyprávění dvou mladých lidí přibližuje čtenáři všední i sváteční život na vesnici ve druhé polovině 19. století. Ve výpovědi běžných i neobvyklých událostí jednoho roku se tu střídají mládenec Jakub a jeho milá Dorotka. Lze snad prozradit, že rok pro ně skončí veselkou, tedy šťastně… Důležitější je totiž podoba knížky, jež navazuje na starobylé kalendáře, přinášející čtenářům kromě praktických údajů také vyprávění, pranostiky, říkadla a písničky, zajímavé recepty a obrázky. Jeden rok života Dorotky a Jakuba tak Kamila Skopová ve své desáté knize doplňuje vedle svých nezaměnitelných obrázků i půvabnou lidovou slovesností, pranostikami, praktickými návody a ovšem - i tradičními recepty lidové kuchyně.

When Dorothy Pilley first began climbing in the 1910s, female mountaineers were seen as a dangerous liability, their achievements ignored, unrecorded or disbelieved. Undeterred, Dorothy proved herself on the vertiginous slopes of Wales, Scotland and the Lake District before tackling rock faces in the Alps, the Pyrenees, the Rockies, Mount Fuji and the Himalayas. Her tireless championing of fellow women climbers and her own trailblazing example helped establish female alpinists as serious mountaineers with impressive records on bravery, skill and endurance. First published in 1935, Climbing Days tells a daredevil tale of adventure, near-death slips and rapturous achievement in high places, interleaved with moments highlighting the particular challenges of being a woman in a sport seen as the province of men.
