Někdy se stane, že žijete celé roky s přítelem, s nímž máte vlastní prosperující podnik, bydlíte v luxusním manažerském bytě v Plymouthu, chodíte do vybrané společnosti, a zdá se, že jinak to ani být nemůže. A pak přijde bankrot, váš vztah to zničí a najednou nemáte nic. Chce to velkou odvahu začít znova. Třicetiletá Polly to dokázala. Bez prostředků, bez přátel se ocitla na přílivovém ostrově v Cornwallu. A po práci v designérském studiu začala péct chleba a zjistila, že hníst těsto rukama je pro její bolavou duši zázračný lék. Elitní společnost plymouthských podnikatelů vyměnila za rybáře, vyjíždějící každý večer na moře za úlovkem. Nebylo lehké bydlet v nehostinné krajině, kdy je třeba přizpůsobit život přílivům, jež odříznou ostrov od okolního světa, a kde bouře přináší smrt i těsné přátelství. Zpočátku byl jejím jediným kamarádem papuchalk, který náhodou vlétl dírou ve střeše k ní do domu. Chtěla zde zůstat jen tak dlouho, než se zase postaví na nohy, ale nakonec zjistila, že tenhle kouzelný ostrov jí zcela učaroval. Jenny Colganová (*1972) se narodila v Prestwicku ve Skotsku.

Gambling was central to the cultural, social, and intellectual history of nineteenth-century Europe. By tracing the evolution of gambling and investigating the spatial qualities of the casino, this book reveals how Europeans used gambling to understand their changing world. The development of resorts and the architectural qualities of casinos demonstrate how new leisure practices, combined with revolutions in transportation and communication, fashioned resort gambling in the Rhineland and Riviera. Jared Poley explores the importance of casino gambling in people''s lives, probing how gambling and fate intersected. The casino impacted understandings of the body, excited emotions, and drove the ''psychology'' of the gambler, as well as affecting ideas about probability, chance, and luck. Ultimately, this book addresses the fundamental question of what gambling was for, and how it opened up opportunities to understand theories about aggression, play, and human development.
