Part of the Penguin Essentials series, discover a beautifully designed edition of Evelyn Waugh s British classic featuring cover art by Jim Tierney I knew Sebastian by sight long before I met him. That was unavoidable for, from his first week, he was the most conspicuous man of his year by reason of his beauty, which was arresting, and his eccentricities of behaviour, which seemed to know no bounds. Charles Ryder, a lonely student at Oxford, is captivated by the outrageous and exquisitely beautiful Sebastian Flyte. Invited to Brideshead, Sebastian s magnificent family home, Charles welcomes the attentions of its eccentric, aristocratic inhabitants. But he also discovers a world where duty and desire, faith and earthly happiness are in conflict; a world which threatens to destroy his beloved Sebastian.A scintillating depiction of the decadent, privileged aristocracy prior to the Second World War, Brideshead Revisited is widely regarded as Evelyn Waugh s finest work.

Evelyn Waugh s masterful depiction of World War II, with an introduction by Martin StannardWaugh s own unhappy experience of being a soldier is superbly re-enacted in this story of Guy Crouchback, a Catholic and a gentleman, commissioned into the Royal Corps of Halberdiers during the war years 1939-45. High comedy - in the company of Brigadier Ritchie-Hook or the denizens of Bellamy s Club - is only part of the shambles of Crouchback s war. When action comes in Crete and in Yugoslavia, he discovers not heroism, but humanity. Sword of Honour combines three volumes: Officers and Gentlemen, Men at Arms and Unconditional Surrender, which were originally published separately. Extensively revised by Waugh, they were published as the one-volume Sword of Honour in 1965, in the form in which Waugh himself wished them to be read.

She drifts into an affair with the shallow socialite John Beaver and forsakes Tony for the Belgravia set. Brilliantly combining tragedy, comedy and savage irony, A Handful of Dust captures the irresponsible mood of the crazy and sterile generation between the wars. This breakdown of the Last marriage is a painful, comic re-working of Waugh s own divorce, and a symbol of the disintegration of society.

Evelyn Waugh s first book: a portrait of one of the greatest artists of the nienteenth century, from one of the greatest writers of the twentieth Biography, as books about the dead are capriciously catalogued, is still very much in the mode This is a sparkling account of Dante Gabriel Rossetti s tragic and mysterious life, telling the story behind some of the greatest poetry and painting of the nineteenth century. Shot through with charm and dry wit, and illuminated by his sense of kinship with the Pre-Raphaelite artist, Rossetti is at once a brilliant reevaluation of Rosetti s work and legacy, as well as a blast of defiance against the art establishment of Waugh s day. The youthful high spirits of the writing make this a true cultural delight New Statesman To be celebrated with fireworks, bunting and marching bands Country Life

Between 1929 and 1935 Evelyn Waugh travelled widely and wrote four books about his experiences. In this collection he writes, with his customary wit and perception, about a cruise around the Mediterranean; a train trip from Djibouti to Abyssinia to attend Emperor Haile Selassie s coronation in 1930; his travels in Aden, Zanzibar, Kenya and the Congo, coping with unbearable heat and plagued by mosquitoes; a journey to Guyana and Brazil; and his return to Addis Ababa in 1935 to report on the war between Abyssinia and Italy. Waugh s adventures on his travels gave him the ideas for such classic novels as Scoop and Black Mischief.

Put Out More Flags shows them adjusting to the changing social pattern of the times. Some of them play a valorous part; others, like the scapegrace Basil Sea, disclose their incorrigible habit of self-preservation in all circumstances. Basil s contribution to the war effort involves the use of his peculiar talents in such spheres of opportunity as the Ministry of Information and an obscure section of Military Security - adventures which incite Evelyn Waugh to another pungent satire upon the coteries of Mayfair.

Audiokniha: Znal ji celý svět, ale své tajemství si málem odnesla do hrobu… Mladou začínající novinářku Monique Grantovou zaskočí nabídka stárnoucí hollywoodské hvězdy, stranící se už celé roky veřejnosti a médií, aby napsala její knižní biografii. V životní cestě Evelyn Hugo, která byla plná skandálů i úspěchů a jejímiž milníky se stalo vedle několika oscarových nominací především sedmero hereččiných manželství, se odráží nejen proměna americké továrny na sny, ale do jisté míry též dějiny ženské emancipace ve Spojených státech. Což je trochu paradox, protože ona sama je nejlepším příkladem toho, že některé věci se zkrátka nemění – ženy stále těží ze své krásy, šoubyznys je pořád plný falše a obyčejné lidi nepřestává fascinovat svět bohatých a mocných. Není divu, že barvitý příběh filmové divy vzbuzuje v Monique plno otázek. Jedna ji ovšem trápí víc než ostatní: Proč právě ona? Nejúspěšnější z řady bestsellerů, které úspěšné americké spisovatelce získaly miliony fanoušků po celém světě. „Evelyn Hugo je okouzlující ikona, kterou budete obdivovat, ale také nezdolná bojovnice, jakou byste chtěli být. Její životní příběh vezme člověka za srdce a pohltí čtenáře až do poslední stránky.“ – Jamie Blynn, US Weekly. „Nejdřív sňatek, který uzavřela ještě jako neplnoletá a který skončil rozvodem v jejích osmnácti letech. Potom námluvy zosnované filmovým studiem a bouřlivé manželství s králem Hollywoodu Donem Adlerem. Zvěsti o tom, že ho opustila, protože ji bil. Její comeback ve snímku Francouzské nové vlny. Blesková svatba ve Vegas se zpěvákem Mickem Rivou. Oslnivé manželství s elegantním Rexem Northem, které zkrachovalo na mimomanželských avantýrách obou zúčastněných. Krásný milostný příběh jejího života s Harrym Cameronem a narození jejich dcery Connor. Srdcervoucí rozvod a Evelynina téměř okamžitá svatba s jejím dávným režisérem Maxem Girardem. Údajná aféra s o mnoho mladším kongresmanem Jackem Eastonem, která ukončila vztah s Girardem. A konečně manželství s finančníkem Robertem Jamisonem; o sňatku se šuškalo, že Evelyn k němu přinejmenším částečně ponoukla touha pomstít se své někdejší herecké kolegyni – a Robertově sestře – Celii St. James. Teď už jsou však všichni její manželé po smrti, a Evelyn je tudíž jediná, kdo má do výše zmíněných vztahů vhled.“ – ukázka z knihy.

Scarlett and Sophie Rickard present No Surrender, a graphic novel adapted from Constance Maud’s 1911 suffrage novel about English women’s rights, a classic examining of civil disobedience. Constance Maud was at the heart of the British campaign for women’s votes. Her novel No Surrender was published at the height of that struggle and used as a persuasive tool by suffragists. Hailed by Emily Wilding Davison as “a book which breathes the very spirit of our Women’s Movement,” the fast-paced story interweaves the lives of women from all classes working together to bring about change. Our hero, Jenny, is a small but fierce Lancashire textile mill worker who puts principle before everything.No Surrender is sometimes funny, sometimes violent, but always exciting and authentic. It is highly regarded as an important document of the arguments for and against extending votes to women, for its witty storytelling, and for an unflinching depiction of the rapid escalation of violence encountered by the women involved. In this faithful graphic novel adaptation, creators Scarlett and Sophie Rickard craft a compelling fiction that paints a comprehensive picture of social, political, economic, and cultural life in early 20th-century Britain that is still acutely relevant today. The graphic format is the embodiment of the suffrage rally cry of “Deeds not Words,” and this book is the perfect sister volume to their stunning adaptation of the socialist classic The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists.

In the weeks after the end of the War in May 1945, 156 U-boats surrendered to the Allies. Some of these either surrendered at sea or directly in a variety of ports, whilst the majority were taken over whilst moored in German bases in Norway, Denmark and France. Nine gave themselves up in the USA, Canada and Argentina. This book provides a comprehensive record of the surrender of all these vessels, and it also includes the story of the 200 or so U-boats which were scuttled, rather than surrendered, in the final days of the War. And it includes details of others which have been raised since and then either been used or scrapped. The author begins by describing the development of Allied policy in 1943, 1944 and early 1945 for the surrender and disposal of the German Navy and its surviving U-boats. It then explains the surrender arrangements, as well as the discussions concerning U-boats at the Potsdam Conference in July 1945 and by the Tripartite Naval Commission (TNC) in Berlin between August and December 1945. The uses and fates of all the surrendered U-boats are then described, particularly those which were formally allocated to the UK, the USA and the USSR. It includes the story of the capture of U-505, before concluding with a schedule showing the final disposal details of each of the U-boats which surrendered. The level of detail, and the exhaustive research incorporated in this work, makes it both an important new reference book and a fascinating analysis of one of the most significant events of the War⠙s end; it also leads the reader into the world of postwar submarine development and the tussle between the US and Soviet navies to best exploit the technical advances that originated with the wartime U-boat. ⠘It is, with no doubt, the most complete account on this topic ⠦ The time is more than ripe for this.⠙ Dr Axel Niestle, German Naval Historian⠘Thank you so much for your precious work bringing light into the end of the German U-Boats at the end of WW II. My congratulations for a wonderful piece of research⠙. Horst Bredow - Director of the Cuxhaven U-Boat Archive and Museum⠘A remarkably well researched work.  Glenn Helm, US Naval History and Heritage Command

NEPŘÍTEL ZA BRANAMIKdysi mocné království Gilneas se ocitá v obležení zvenčí i zevnitř. Zatímco se podél jeho mohutné zdi shromažďují armády Opuštěných, dojde v hlavním městě k řadě brutálních vražd, které naznačují, že se mezi obyvateli skrývá daleko zlověstnější hrozba.Na scénu přichází Halford Ramsey, proslulý královský vyšetřovatel, který se nezastaví před ničím, aby nepolapitelného vraha dopadl. Při rozkrývání případu se Halford ocitá v ohnisku zájmu skutečných pachatelů vražd: worgenů, prokletých vlčích lidí, známých pouze z legend, a tajuplného „Vlčího kultu“, který je uctívá. Ramsey je záhy zatažen do deset tisíc let starého eposu, ve kterém nechybí láska, tragédie ani zrada, a který se točí kolem války prastarých nočních elfů proti démonické Plamenné legii. Halford, postižen kletbou worgenů, musí zkrotit zvíře zuřící v jeho nitru, a jednou provždy učinit přítrž ďábelskému spiknutí, jež hrozí zničením celého Gilneasu.Příběh plný záhad a bortících se říší vypráví Micky Neilson a James Waugh, s ilustracemi od Ludo Lullabiho a Tonyho Washingtona.

Bono, umělec, aktivista a zpěvák irské rockové skupiny U2, napsal vzpomínkovou knihu, která je bolestně upřímná, důvěrná a hluboká. Kniha Surrender zachycuje jeho pozoruhodný životní příběh, popisuje výzvy, kterým čelil, a vypráví o přátelích a příbuzných, kteří ho na jeho cestě formovali a podporovali.Bono je jedním z nejvýraznějších světových umělců a spoluzakladatelem organizací ONE a RED. O jeho profesní dráze bylo popsáno mnoho papíru, ale v knize Surrender se tohoto úkolu zhostil on sám a poprvé se rozepsal o svém pozoruhodném životě i o lidech, kdo ho na jeho cestě provázeli. Svým originálním způsobem nás provede od událostí svého dospívání v Dublinu přes neobvyklou cestu U2 k pozici jedné z nejvlivnějších kapel na světě až po více než dvacet let aktivistické práce věnované boji proti AIDS a extrémní chudobě. Bono píše upřímně, s velkou dávkou sebereflexe a spoustou humoru nás nechá nahlédnout do svého života a seznámí nás se svou rodinou, přáteli a vírou, tím vším, co ho drželo nad vodou, provokovalo a formovalo.

Now suddenly everyone wants a piece.Sir Ecgbert s brother Esmé sees it as an opportunity to restore his lost fortunes by turning it into a luxury eco wellness hub. His business partner Charlie Tysedale only wants it to escape from his dreaded bestselling-author wife. India Tode sees in it the ideal holiday home, while Sir Ecgbert envisages a yoga retreat.

Meanwhile, some of the locals have excellent reasons for keeping it just the way it is.

THE NATIONAL BESTSELLER Hughley uses his trademark humor to address the stark divisions in society that stem from centuries of white supremacy. —PeopleSurrender, white people! After 400 years of white supremacy in America, a reckoning is here. These are the terms of peace–and they are unconditional. Hope you brought a sense of humor, because this is gonna sting.After centuries of oppressing others, white people are in for a surprise: You’re about to be a minority yourself. Yes, the face of America is getting a lot browner—and a reckoning is coming. Black and brown folk are not going to take a back seat anymore. It’s time to surrender your unjust privileges and sue for peace while the getting’s still good. Lucky for America, D.L. Hughley has a plan.On the eve of America becoming a majority-minority nation, Hughley warns, the only way for America to move forward peacefully is if Whites face their history, put aside all their visions of superiority, and open up their institutions so they benefit everyone in this nation. But we can still have fun with this right? Surrender, White People! hilariously holds America account for its wrongs and offers D.L. s satirical terms for reparations and reconciliation. But it’s not all bad news, white folks. The upside is that if you put D.L.’s plan into effect, you can FINALLY get black people to stop talking about oppression, discrimination, and their place in America. Now, that’s something we ALL can get behind.
