Thunderball - Ian Fleming

Upon M s insistence, James Bond takes a two-week respite in a secluded natural health spa. But amid the bland teas, tasteless yogurts, and the spine stretcher the guests lovingly call The Rack, Bond stumbles onto the trail of a lethal man with ties to a new secret organization called SPECTRE. When SPECTRE hijacks two A-bombs, a frantic global search for the weapons ensues, and M s hunch that the plane containing the bombs will make a clean drop into the ocean sends Bond to the Bahamas to investigate. On the island paradise, 007 finds a wealthy pleasure seeker s treasure hunt and meets Domino Vitali, the gorgeous mistress of Emilio Largo, otherwise known as SPECTRE s Number 1. But as powerful as Number 1 is, he works for someone else: Ernst Stavro Blofeld, a peculiar man with a deadly creative mind. The ninth novel in Ian Fleming s James Bond series, Thunderball marks the beginnings of one of the most iconic villains in history, and the only match for the wits of James Bond.

Ian Fleming - Nicholas Shakespeare

A fresh portrait of the man behind James Bond, and his enduring impact, by an award-winning biographer with unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers. Ian Fleming s greatest creation, James Bond, has had an enormous and ongoing impact on our culture. What Bond represents about ideas of masculinity, the British national psyche and global politics has shifted over time, as has the interpretation of the life of his author.But Fleming himself was more mysterious and subtle than anything he wrote. Ian s childhood with his gifted brother Peter and his extraordinary mother set the pattern for his ambition to be the complete man , and he would strive for the means to achieve this completeness all his life. Only a thriller writer for his last twelve years, his dramatic personal life and impressive career in Naval Intelligence put him at the heart of critical moments in world history, while also providing rich inspiration for his fiction.Exceptionally well connected, and widely travelled, from the United States and Soviet Russia to his beloved Jamaica, Ian had access to the most powerful political figures at a time of profound change. Nicholas Shakespeare is one of the most gifted biographers working today. His talent for uncovering material that casts new light on his subjects is fully evident in this masterful, definitive biography.His unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers and his nose for a story make this a fresh and eye-opening picture of a man whose life was overshadowed by his famous creation.

Antikomunistické manifesty - John V. Fleming

Předmětem fundované a čtivé Flemingovy práce je čtveřice vlivných knih, které formovaly studenou válku: Tma o polednách (1940) maďarského novináře a intelektuála Arthura Koestlera, Ze tmy (1941) německého námořníka a dělnického aktivisty Jana Valtina, Zvolil jsem svobodu (1946) sovětského inženýra Viktora Kravčenka a Svědek (1952) amerického žurnalisty Whittakera Chamberse. Všichni autoři byli pravověrnými komunisty, které trpká deziluze přivedla k odklonu od jejich ideologie; všichni o tomto zvratu napsali emotivní svědectví. Příběhy všech těchto čtyř knih a jejich autorů zasazuje John V. Fleming do širokého historického kontextu třicátých až padesátých let 20. století a rozebírá je ve všemožných souvislostech od politologických, literárněkritických až po psychologické. Především ukazuje na téměř fatální iluze levicové a částečně i liberální západoevropské veřejnosti ve vztahu ke stalinismu, komunismu a Sovětskému svazu zejména po druhé světové válce i obdobnou situaci americké veřejnosti hlavně během války. Nebezpečí vlivu stalinských komunistických stran na Západě a jejich sympatizantů bylo všeobecně podceňováno. Při demaskování vražedné a nelidské povahy sovětského systému sehrály - jak Fleming přesvědčivě ukazuje - čtyři analyzované knihy, antikomunistické manifesty , velice důležitou roli a napomohly k porážce stalinistických sympatizantů a k reorientaci západní veřejnosti a politických reprezentací směrem k obraně demokratických a liberálních hodnot.

Britain After Rome - Robin Fleming

The enormous hoard of beautiful gold military objects found in a field in Staffordshire has focused huge attention on the mysterious world of 7th and 8th century Britain. Clearly the product of a sophisticated, wealthy, highly militarized society, the objects beg innumerable questions about how we are to understand the people who once walked across the same landscape we inhabit, who are our ancestors and yet left such a slight record of their presence. Britain after Rome brings together a wealth of research and imaginative engagement to bring us as close as we can hope to get to the tumultuous centuries between the departure of the Roman legions and the arrival of Norman invaders nearly seven centuries later. As towns fell into total decay, Christianity disappeared and wave upon wave of invaders swept across the island, it can be too easily assumed that life in Britain became intolerable - and yet this is the world in which modern languages and political arrangements were forged, a number of fascinating cultures rose and fell and tantalizing glimpses, principally through the study of buildings and burials, can be had of a surprising and resilient place. The result of a lifetime of work, Robin Fleming s major new addition to the Penguin History of Britain could not be more opportune. A richly enjoyable, varied and surprising book, Britain after Rome allows its readers to see Britain s history in a quite new light.

His tenure coincided with the clubâ ™s greatest period of success since the 1980s, including winning the Premier League in 2020 â “ Liverpoolâ ™s first league title after an agonising three decades.Here for the first time, Graham reveals the fascinating data that informed some of the clubâ ™s most pivotal moments of the past decade, from the appointment of Jurgen Klopp as manager in 2015 to the signing of Mohamed Salah in 2017. Along the way, he shares groundbreaking insight into the modern game, including how a season largely played behind closed doors transformed our understanding of home team advantage, or why the GOAT (greatest of all time) might not be who you think.

So This is Permanence - Ian Curtis

So this is permanence, edited by Jon Savage with a foreword by Deborah Curtis, presents the intensely personal writings of one of the most enigmatic and influential songwriters and performers of the late twentieth century, Joy Division s Ian Curtis. The songs of Joy Division, infused with the energy of punk but steeped in a resigned longing, were born of Manchester in the late seventies - a once flourishing industrial city in decline. They were the songs too of Ian Curtis s inner tragedies, as he battled depression, epilepsy and debilitating stage fright. Ian Curtis committed suicide in 1980, on the eve of the band s first American tour. Interspersed with the lyrics are previously unpublished facsimile pages of Ian s notebooks, which throw his highly emotive lyrics into fascinating relief and cast light on the creative process of this singularly poetic songwriter.

Medieval Horizons - Ian Mortimer

The essential introduction to the Middle Ages by the bestselling author of The Time Traveller s Guide to Medieval EnglandWe tend to think of the Middle Ages as a dark, backward and unchanging time characterised by violence, ignorance and superstition. By contrast we believe progress arose from science and technological innovation, and that inventions of recent centuries created the modern world.We couldn t be more wrong. As Ian Mortimer shows in this fascinating book, people s horizons - their knowledge, experience and understanding of the world - expanded dramatically. Life was utterly transformed between 1000 and 1600, marking the transition from a warrior-led society to that of Shakespeare.Just as The Time Traveller s Guide to Medieval England revealed what it was like to live in the fourteenth century, Medieval Horizons provides the perfect primer to the era as a whole. It outlines the enormous cultural changes that took place - from literacy to living standards, inequality and even the developing sense of self - thereby correcting misconceptions and presenting the period as a revolutionary age of fundamental importance in the development of the Western world.Praise for Ian Mortimer: The endlessly inventive Ian Mortimer is the most remarkable medieval historian of our time - The Times

The Fix - Ian Morgan Cron

Did you know that anyone--addicts or non-addicts--can benefit from working the Twelve Steps and find the freedom, joy, and intimacy with God that their hearts long for?We all suffer from a sense of spiritual homelessness--a feeling that we re not fully at home in the world. To cope with our painful feelings and life traumas, we search for quick fixes that eventually become habitual, self-destructive behaviors that ultimately create more problems than they solve.As a person in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, Ian Cron is no stranger to these destructive habits. It wasn t until he embraced the Twelve Steps that he found true freedom. He knows from personal experience that Twelve Step recovery is more than just a life-saving strategy for guiding substance users into sobriety. Everybody is addicted to something to numb the discomfort of living in a messed-up world, he says, but the good news is that if you committedly work the steps, you will eventually have a vital spiritual awakening that will give you an entirely new and radically beautiful orientation toward the life God has for you.If you long for sustainable healing and joy amid life s messiness, The Fix invites you to:Journey step-by-step through a spiritual curriculum that has helped millions overcome trauma, pain, and brokenness for over eight decadesUnderstand how the Twelve Steps can be a transformative tool not only for people with chemical or behavioral addictions but for anyone who wants to move beyond self-help to a spiritual awakeningCatch yourself in the act of self-sabotaging behaviors and understand how each day is a new opportunity to trade in self-willed reformation for grace-powered transformation My original subtitle for this book--Twelve Steps to Unscrewing Your Screwed-Up Life--was a little over the top, Ian comments. But anyone who has ever fallen for a quick fix (like drugs, alcohol, porn, overeating, work, religion, people-pleasing, and more) knows firsthand how our self-prescribed treatment plans derail us. They might not be as visible as empty bottles stashed inside a desk drawer, but they are just as life-complicating and soul-crushing. With his characteristic wit and transparent self-disclosure, Ian guides us in learning how to work each of the Twelve Steps so we will finally be given a new pair of glasses through which we will be able to see ourselves, others, and the world in a startlingly new way--and ultimately take hold of the freedom God has been waiting to give us all along.

One Fine Day - Ian Marchant

One day Ian Marchant, acclaimed author of books on music, railways and pubs, decided, as all men of a certain age must, to have a dig around his family history. Surprisingly quickly, a web search informed him that his seven-times-great great-grandfather, Thomas Marchant had left a detailed diary from 1714 to 1728. So far, so jolly ... Life-loving diarist Thom - who liked a drink and a game of cards - feels recognisably Marchant to Ian. With fascinating detail we learn about Thom s family farm and fishponds; about dung, horses and mud; about beer, the wife s nights out, his own job troubles and their shared worries for their children. But as Ian digs deeper beyond the Sussex diary s bucolic portrait he discovers a subtext - a family descended from immigrants, with antiestablishment politics, who are struggling with illness, political instability and cash crises - just as their country does three centuries on. Rich and immersive, One Fine Day draws a living portrait of Marchant family life in the 1720s and how their England (rainy, muddy, politically turbulent, illnessridden) became the England of the 2020s.

Smith, M.D.’s unique new plan takes intermittent fasting to the next level, combining the power of time-restricted eating with a detailed program that flips the body into a negative energy state, scorching fat on the way to weight loss and physical transformation.Many IF books leave readers to figure out what and how much they should eat during their feeding window, and even how long to fast each day. Smith knows that even readers highly motivated to change their weight and their health need marching orders, and they’re all here in Fast Burn!’s nine-week program. Dr. Ian believes in cleaner eating—forget perfect—and the two positively disruptive Jigsaw Weeks he works into his Fast Burn! program not only mix things up so Fast Burners stay on track, but introduce refreshing and less structured plant-based weeks to the program.

Potichu si zpívám - Ian Anderson

Ian Anderson, legenda artrocku a frontman Jethro Tull, kompletně shromáždil všechny texty, které napsal pro Jethro Tull i pro svou sólovou tvorbu. Sbírku provází sada fotografií, pořízených samotným Ianem, ilustrujících vždy jednu vybranou píseň z každého alba. Knihu otevírá rozsáhlá úvodní předmluva samotného Andersona, ve které do hloubky vysvětluje své tvůrčí postupy. Jde o fascinující výpověď, která dává knize nový rozměr. Ještě před ní si můžete přečíst předmluvu zázračného dítěte Geralda Bostocka - jakousi historie Jethro Tull v kostce, vyprávěnou fiktivním autorem veršů alba Thick As A Brick. Jde o typickou ukázku Andersonova humoru a o dokonalý úvod svazku. Kniha obsahuje všechny vydané texty, členěné chronologicky podle alb a jejich pozdějších bonusů, tedy dříve nevydaných skladeb. Na konci sbírky jsou i některé osiřelé písně, které se autor rozhodl se zvídavým čtenářem sdílet. Anderson před vydáním knihy všechny skladby trpělivě prošel, aby si ověřil, že text odpovídá přesně tomu, co se zpívá na desce. Název Potichu si zpívám dokonce popisuje proces, který mu probíhal v hlavě, když slova kontroloval. Každé album je v knize uvozeno elegantní stránkou s obalem alba a stručným textem o okolnostech jeho vzniku z pera Iana Andersona. Následují texty písní alba v angličtině a v češtině, a fotografie, ilustrující konkrétní píseň. Kromě toho zde skalní fanoušci naleznou řadu kopií rukopisů textů, někdy zcela zárodečných. Autorem českého překladu textů je Vladimír Řepík, který práci Iana Andersona dlouhodobě studuje, mnohokrát se s flétnistou a zpěvákem sešel, navštívil v Británii místa jeho působení, a je dnes patrně nejzasvěcenějším znalcem jeho textařského díla u nás. Po knize Na rokenrol už jsem starej... z roku 2006, která mapovala texty Iana Andersona do roku 2003, se tak českému čtenáři dostává do ruky výpravný autorem ilustrovaný svazek zatím kompletního Andersonova lyrického díla včetně posledního alba The Zealot Gene z roku 2022.

Kafka meets The Thick Of It in a bitingly funny new political satire from Ian McEwanThat morning, Jim Sams, clever but by no means profound, woke from uneasy dreams to find himself transformed into a gigantic creature.Jim Sams has undergone a metamorphosis. In his previous life he was ignored or loathed, but in his new incarnation he is the most powerful man in Britain â “ and it is his mission to carry out the will of the people. Nothing must get in his way: not the opposition, nor the dissenters within his own party. Not even the rules of parliamentary democracy.With trademark intelligence, insight and scabrous humour, Ian McEwan pays tribute to Franz Kafkaâ ™s most famous work to engage with a world turned on its head.
