The Little Guide to Bruce Springsteen - OH
Bruce Springsteen arrived on the world''s stage in 1973 with two incredible albums in one year, a prolificacy that would define his career for the next half-century. In his tenure at the top of the rock and roll charts, Springsteen received worldwide adoration for crafting lyrics and music that symbolised all facets of his, and his home nation''s, history; songs that enthralled with passion and purpose, stinging political vitriol and the sweetest of melody. No other American artist has captured America''s heart and soul more than Springsteen.Containing Springsteen''s most prominent non-lyrical poetry and life philosophies, from his earliest interviews to his most recent statements of truth, fact, and soul-baring, each one spanning the entirety of his musical output with the E-Street Band, his solo soundtracks, iconic live performances and a wealth of TV, magazine, and newspaper conversations.In the early days when Springsteen and the E-Street Band played gigs in small venues, it was Bruce''s job (as frontman) to collect the money and pay the rest of the band. This led them to start calling him ''The Boss'', a nickname which has stuck. Springsteen - the patron saint of the working man, who greatly dislikes bosses - naturally loathes this nickname!

Born in the GDR - Hester Vaizey
The changes that followed the fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989 were particularly dramatic for East Germans. With the German Democratic Republic effectively taken over by West Germany in the reunification process, nothing in their lives was immune from change and upheaval: from the way they voted, the newspapers they read, to the brand of butter they bought. But what was it really like to go from living under communism one minute, to capitalism the next? What did the East Germans make of capitalism? And how do they remember the GDR today? Are their memories dominated by fear and loathing of the Stasi state, or do they look back with a measure of fondness and regret on a world of guaranteed employment and a relatively low cost of living? This is the story of eight citizens of the former German Democratic Republic, and how these dramatic changes affected them. All of the people in the book were born in East Germany after the Berlin Wall was put up in August 1961, so they knew nothing other than living in a socialist system when the GDR fell apart. Their stories provide a fascinating insight not only into everyday life ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Some came to America in search of religious and political freedom, while others simply sought a better life in a country of great opportunities. Today we know that without their involvement, independent Czechoslovakia would hardly have come to exist, and without the assistance of the United States, the Czech lands would have twice recovered from totalitarianism only with great difficulty. In Bohemian Stories, Renáta Fučíková presents a graphic journey through the history of Czechs in the United States, capturing the bonds between the two countries through their lived experience.

There are people who set out on such journey voluntarily, and some will be forced to take it by the ruthless power of their destiny. And the story of our hero isn‘t any different.

Born in the 70s - Tim Glynne-Jones
The 1970s was a decade of extremes, from the grim chill of the winter blackouts to the majestic heatwave of the Queen''s Silver Jubilee, from the gaudy glitz of glam rock to the trim monochrome of ska, and from the austerity of the three-day week to the hilarity of Carry On films, bubble perms, kipper ties and ankle-swinger flares. In the context of the 20th century as a whole, the 1970s is the black sheep, the maverick, a delinquent decade, misunderstood by many but adored by those who lived through it.

War-time experiences as a young evacuee living in grand English country houses kindled her fascination with buildings and gardens before she met and married Michael Inchbald, a leading interior decorator. Britain had no equivalent of the Parsons School of Design in the USA, so Jacqueline Duncan became determined to establish a school in London. An important component of Inchbald courses is interior design history, which Jacqueline Duncan outlines, explaining how the profession developed out of associated trades and gift ed amateurism. Many distinguished interior designers and garden designers are Inchbald graduates. Examples of their work are included in an appendix.

2024 Independent Publisher Book Awards Winner – Silver Medal, World HistoryNadia Comaneci is the Romanian child prodigy and global gymnastics star who ultimately fled her homeland and the brutal oppression of a communist regime. At the age of just 14, Nadia became the first gymnast to be awarded a perfect score of 10.0 at the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games and went on to collect three gold medals in performances which influenced the sport for generations to come, cementing Nadia’s place as a sporting legend. However, as the communist authorities in Romania sought an iron grip over its highest-profile athletes, Nadia and her trainers were subjected to surveillance from the Securitate, the Romanian secret police. Drawing on 25,000 secret police archive pages, countless secret service intelligence documents, and numerous wiretap recordings, this book tells the compelling story of Nadia’s life and career using unique insights from the communist dictatorship which monitored her.Nadia Comaneci and the Secret Police explores Nadia’s complex and combustible relationship with her sometimes abusive coaches, Béla and Marta Károlyi, figures who would later become embroiled in the USA Gymnastics scandal.

It challenges the sacred tenets of the United States Constitution, urban life, the civil rights movement, the father-son relationship, and the holy grail of racial equality—the black Chinese restaurant.Born in the "agrarian ghetto" of Dickens—on the southern outskirts of Los Angeles—the narrator of The Sellout resigns himself to the fate of lower-middle-class Californians: "I''d die in the same bedroom I''d grown up in, looking up at the cracks in the stucco ceiling that''ve been there since ''68 quake." Raised by a single father, a controversial sociologist, he spent his childhood as the subject in racially charged psychological studies. He is led to believe that his father''s pioneering work will result in a memoir that will solve his family''s financial woes.

The Imposter - Johanna van Zanten
Johanna is one of the daughters of a migrant cobbler from the eastern backwoods of Pomerania, born in the German Empire of the 1880s. Aching for a life of accomplishment and respect, she resolves to escape her dad''s fate of early death, the stigma of his mixed Slavic-German heritage, and the poverty that followed him. A headstrong girl, she refuses to be exploited as a housemaid for a wealthy family—the only choice for girls like her. She loses her job when the master of the house tries to rape her. With nothing to lose, she accepts a job as the concession shop operator with the railroad. Her assignment is to travel with the construction crew across northern Germany. On the first day of work, she sets up shop (and home) in an empty passenger railcar and meets Hendrik, a Dutchman, and the construction superintendent. Head over heels, they marry when Johanna becomes pregnant. It doesn''t take long before the first babies arrive and continue arriving: within three years, Johanna delivers five children, and the caboose becomes crowded. A railroad inspector drops in unexpectedly and bans the children from the construction site, so Johanna moves into the nearest town with the ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Káťa Kabanová a Příhody lišky Bystroušky / Káťa Kabanová and The Cunning Little Vixen - Jiří Zahrádka
Káťa Kabanová a Příhody lišky Bystroušky jsou první opery z posledního desetiletí života Leoše Janáčka – období, které bývá označováno jako skladatelovo „velké stáří“. V těchto dílech Janáček dospěl ve své skladatelské metodě k dokonalému tvaru propojením příběhu, slova a hudby. Publikace zkoumá vznik obou oper v kontextu bouřlivých dvacátých let dvacátého století, kdy se Janáček, narozený v polovině devatenáctého století, musel vyrovnávat s politickými i kulturními změnami danými novým uspořádáním Evropy po konci světové války, vznikem Československé republiky a proměnou paradigmat nejenom hudebních, uměleckých, ale i obecně společenských. Kniha sleduje nejen skladatelovy inspirační zdroje, hledání ideální dramaturgie a kompozičního řešení, ale také inscenační historii obou děl, úspěchy a neúspěchy při prosazování na zahraniční scény, spolupráci s Maxem Brodem a mnoho dalšího. Okrajově pojednává rovněž o Janáčkově Zápisníku zmizelého, o němž skladatel neuvažoval pouze jako o písňovém cyklu, ale detailně promýšlel i jeho poloscénickou, dramatickou formu. Text doprovází bohatý a často unikátní ikonografický materiál. Káťa Kabanová and The Cunning Little Vixen are the first operas from the last decade of Leoš Janáček’s life – a period often referred to as the composer’s “grand old age”. In these works, Janáček perfected his compositional method by intertwining story, words, and music. This ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Diary of a Madman, The Government Inspector, & Selected Stories - Nikolay Gogol

Maguire.This volume includes a selection of Gogol''s most admired short fiction and his most famous drama. A hilarious and biting political satire, ''The Government Inspector'' has been popular since its first performance and was regarded by Nabokov as the greatest Russian play ever written. The stories gathered here, meanwhile, range from comic to tragic and describe the isolated lives of low-ranking clerks, lunatics and swindlers. They include ''Diary of a Madman'', an amusing but disturbing exploration of insanity; ''Nevsky Prospect'', a depiction of an artist infatuated with a prostitute; and ''The Overcoat'', a moving consideration of poverty.Edited and translated by Ronald Wilks, this new collection of Gogol''s shorter writings skilfully captures the savage wit of the original works.

Summer in Baden-Baden - Tsypkin Leonid
Why was I reading this book now, in a railway-carriage, beneath a wavering, flickering, electric light-bulb . .Summer, 1867: The newlywed Dostoevsky and his young wife Anna - his one-time secretary - are travelling to the German spa resort of Baden-Baden on honeymoon. Their love is ecstatic, yet the author is plagued by demons: haunted by his crimes and punishments, consumed by fevers of jealousy, gambling to avoid mounting debts and shaken by epileptic fits. Winter, 1970s: Our Jewish narrator embarks on a pilgrimage from Moscow to Leningrad to trace the footsteps of his literary hero.As the train travels across the Soviet Union's bleak expanses, he immerses himself in Anna's travel journal: and their journeys - past and present, real and imagined - soon become entwined. The result of a clandestine literary vocation, Summer in Baden-Baden was smuggled out of the Soviet Union in 1981 and first published in a Russian émigré weekly in the USA. It has since been hailed as a trailblazing modern classic, translated into more than twenty languages - and its hypnotic, enigmatic power only grows.

The Balloonist - MacDonald Harris
In 1976 Farrar Strauss in the USA and Gollancz in the UK, published the 5th novel by an American writer who had been gathering momentum on both sides of the Atlantic. It was both an intense love story and a Jules Verne-type science fiction adventure, centred on an attempt by a Swedish scientist, an American journalist and a French speaking adventurer to become the first people to set foot on the North Pole. To arrive there and return, borne on the wind by a huge red and white hydrogen balloon. The book was a critical sensation, and was runner up for the National Book Awards in 1977. What was not known at the time of first publication, nor indeed when Galileo reissued this extraordinary book in 2011, was that the author had actually based this fiction on a real event: the 1897 attempt by S. A Andree to fly to the North Pole. This is a new edition, the first in a uniform presentation of selected Harris works.

The Persistence of Faith - Sir Jonathan Sacks
Confidence in a faith is a subtle quality and lack of it shows in many ways, some contradictory. Dr Sacks has that confidence and the quiet charisma to communicate it.Sacks argues that faiths must remain open to criticism, keep alive their separate communities and still contribute far more to national debates on moral issues. They must also learn to get along better. His thesis is that we still live under a Biblical canopy and that a cohesive morality needs the uniting bonds of faith.The subject of this book - religions and ethics - is good ground for him to build on: The Jewish contribution to ethics is distinctly rational and has a long and illustrious tradition. Moral philosophy is after all a Jewish preoccupation.In recent years, he writes, religion has taken us unawares. The rise of the Moral Majority in the USA, the Islamic Revolution, the growth of religious parties in Israel, the power of Catholicism in Poland and the African continent all run contrary to the basic thesis that modernity and secularization went hand in hand and could almost be regarded as synonyms. Instead, and against all prediction, religion has resurfaced in the public domain.In this book, Sacks argues ... Unknown localization key: "more"
