Passport to Peckham - Robert Hewison

An entertaining and engaging social and cultural history of the London community of Peckham that offers lessons in urban living.“Is there life in Peckham?” asks a pop song of the 1980s. Peckham has been treated as a joke and a place to be avoided. It has been celebrated in television comedies, and denigrated for its levels of crime. It is a center for the arts and the creative industries, yet it also suffers from social deprivation and racial tension. Passport to Peckham is a guide to an unofficial part of London—social and cultural history written from the ground up. In this entertaining and engaging account, Hewison invites readers to explore Peckham’s streets and presents the portrait of a community experiencing the stresses of modern living. Old and new residents rub against each other as they try to adjust to the challenges created by urban regeneration and the more subtle process of gentrification. Artists have lived and worked in Peckham for more than a century, and now Caribbean and West African communities are adding their own flavors in terms of music, drama, poetry, and film. Focused on a few square miles, Passport to Peckham raises issues of urban policy, planning, culture, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Oblivion - Sergei Lebedev

One of the first twenty-first century Russian novels to probe the legacy of the Soviet prison camp system by one of Russia''s finest young writers. A young man travels to the vast wastelands of the Far North to uncover the truth about a shadowy neighbour who saved his life, and whom he knows only as Grandfather II. What he finds, among the forgotten mines and decrepit barracks of former gulags, is a world relegated to oblivion, where it is easier to ignore both the victims and the executioners than to come to terms with a terrible past.This disturbing tale evokes the great and ruined beauty of a land where man and machine worked in tandem with nature to destroy millions of lives during the Soviet century. Emerging from today''s Russia, where the ills of the past are being forcefully erased from public memory, this masterful novel represents an epic literary attempt to rescue history from the brink of oblivion.

Building Java Programs: A Back to Basics Approach, Global Edition - Marty Stepp, Stuart Reges

For courses in Java Programming Layered, Back-to-Basics Approach to Java Programming This edition of Building Java Programs: A Back to Basics Approach uses a layered strategy to introduce Java programming and overcome the high failure rates that are common in introductory computer science courses. The authors’ proven and class-tested “back to basics” approach introduces programming fundamentals first, with new syntax and concepts added over multiple chapters. Object-oriented programming is discussed only once students have developed a basic understanding of Java programming. Previous editions have established the text’s reputation as an excellent choice for two-course sequences in introductory computer science, and new material in the 4th Edition incorporates concepts related to Java 8, functional programming, and image manipulation.

Tak to bylo, tak to je... Járo, kakao! - Lou Fanánek Hagen

Frontman kapely Tři sestry Lou Fanánek Hagen je výjimečná osobnost. Ačkoli tvrdí, že se nikdy nenaučil pořádně hrát na žádný nástroj a neumí zpívat, jsou mu ochotni naslouchat tisíce lidí. Fanánek je totiž bez nadsázky mistrem slova. Prokázal to v desítkách a stovkách textů - ať už je napsal pro Tři sestry, Michala Davida, Lucii Bílou či šmoulí partu -, kde dovedl do několika řádků vměstnat příběh, který by vydal na povídku či novelu. Kromě stavařiny Fanánek studoval i žurnalistiku, ale pro noviny nikdy systematicky nepsal. Jednou ovšem udělal výjimku, když v dnes už zapomenutém časopise Filip pro náctileté uveřejňoval na pokračování příběhy ze svého života. Měly nesmírný ohlas a v devadesátých letech z nich vznikla kniha Tak to bylo, tak to je..., jež se stala kultovním dílkem a která nyní tvoří první část tohoto "omnibusu". Uplynulo patnáct let, než se Fanánek nechal přemluvit, aby usedl k počítači a pro hladové čtenáře sepsal cosi jako pokračování úspěšné prvotiny. Druhá kniha dostala název Járo, kakao! a opět se stala bestsellerem. A bylo jen otázkou času, kdy oba rukopisy vyjdou v jedné knize, která zmapuje životní cestu "pankáče z Prahy" od puberty po zralý věk.

A Short Introduction to Anneliese - James Elkins

A Short Introduction to Anneliese is the second volume in author James Elkins’ multi-volume mega-novel Five Strange Languages being published by Unnamed Press, all of which trace the final year of Samuel Emmer’s life before he disappears. When Samuel Emmer meets unemployed biologist Anneliese Glur for dinner during his stopover in Frankfurt, he has no notion of what to expect. Anneliese is an old friend and former colleague of his boss, and he agrees to dinner for no other reason than he has nothing better to do. As it turns out, Anneliese is a torrent of observations, digressions, theories, hypotheses, and resentments. She complains about her niece, who lives with her and her brother Paul, and about their uncle Hans, whose dementia haunts Anneliese’s concerns about the state of her own mind. She deconstructs the “awfulness” of language, calling it an ill-fitting suit, and challenges the validity of memory. Most surprising is what Samuel comes to realize by the end of this strange dinner: that the insufferable but deeply compelling Anneliese is conducting a kind of interview with him – the purposes of which are not entirely clear.

The World According to Colour - James Fox

The world comes to us in colour. But colour lives as much in our imaginations as it does in our surroundings, as this scintillating book reveals.Each chapter immerses the reader in a single colour, drawing together stories from the histories of art and humanity to illuminate the meanings it has been given over the eras and around the globe. Showing how artists, scientists, writers, philosophers, explorers and inventors have both shaped and been shaped by these wonderfully myriad meanings, James Fox reveals how, through colour, we can better understand their cultures, as well as our own. Each colour offers a fresh perspective on a different epoch, and together they form a vivid, exhilarating history of the world.
