Deal Of A Lifetime Penguin Books

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

It is Christmas Eve and a father and son are meeting for the first time in years.The father has a story he needs to share before it's too late. As he tells his son about a courageous little girl lying in a hospital bed a few miles away, he reveals even more about himself; his triumphs in business, his failures as a parent, his past regrets, his hopes for the future.Now, on this night before Christmas, the father has been given the unexpected chance to do something remarkable that could change the destiny of a little girl he hardly knows. But before he can make the deal of a lifetime, he must find out what his own life has actually been worth, and only his son can reveal the answer.With humour and compassion, Fredrik Backman's The Deal of a Lifetime reminds us that life is a fleeting gift, and our legacies rest in how we share that gift with those we love.

Crete. Wonders of a glorious land Independently Published

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

You want to discover the natural and cultural treasures of one of the most extraordinary Greek islands from an expert? This is the book for you! (This is the black and white edition of the first part, on West Crete. There is also a colour edition and the second part on East Crete, along with an edition on the entire island and other books in the series). This book describes the largest island of Greece, a land of great natural beauty, but also of many cultural wonders and at the same time land of great contradictions: enormous mountain chains, the mythological birthplace of Zeus, the supreme god of ancient Greeks, covered with snow and at the same time overlooking some of the finest beaches in Greece; spectacular gorges, olive groves, traditional villages, Venetian historical centres. This is the landscape of Crete, what the eye sees.But beyond what the eye sees, this is also one of the most glorious lands that can be. Homeland of the Minoan civilisation, the most ancient great civilization in Europe, which has left owe-striking palaces, revealing an amazingly high life standard in Prehistory; godmother of Europe itself since Zeus, after taking the form of a bull and abducting the Phoenician princess Europa, brought her to Crete, part of the continent that was named after her; homeland of the artists of the Cretan school, the greatest expression of post-Byzantine painting; homeland of El Greco, the greatest painter in the history of Greece, a direct offspring of this school, who, even in Spain, the country that became his second home and assured him eternal fame, never ceased signing his paintings as 'Domenikos Theotokopoulos, Cretan'; homeland of Vincenzos Cornaros, author of Erotokritos, the greatest Greek epic poem of modern times, at the same time the greatest monument of the modern Greek language and the Cretan dialect; homeland of Nikos Kazantzakis, for many the greatest author of modern Greece; homeland of Eleftherios Venizelos, the greatest politician of modern Greece (the airport of Athens bears his name); homeland of Nikos Xylouris, one of the greatest and most popular Greek singers and composers of our time.Along with all that, Crete is the land of ferocious resistance to whoever tried to subjugate these proud people, for whom freedom is the highest value: Venetians and Ottomans had a very hard time conquering and keeping this island; in more recent history, the resistance to the Nazis has written one of the most illustrious pages of World War II, while a great number of Cretan villages have paid very dearly their refusal to submit. This love for freedom goes with the love for this island's intense cultural identity, forged by its distance from the mainland and its autarchy, sustained by its fertile soil (which produces the ingredients of the famous Cretan diet); and, consequently, with a very marked desire to preserve tradition in language, music, poetry, dance, clothing, food. I doubt there is another place in Greece where tradition is an affair of such a high percentage of the population, especially young people. If I reveal to you that part of my roots is to be discovered in Crete, you will say I am biased. But I bet that a visit will change your mind. I guarantee you, you will not regret it... The author of this book holds a Ph.D. in Architectural History from the National Technical University of Athens and a master's in heritage preservation from the Ecole de Chaillot of Paris. He is a professor at the University of the Peloponnese, where he teaches these subjects. He is also a fervent cultural hiker. His travel books (mostly about Greece) are addressed to you, the reader with a special interest in cultural sites. In order to help you better understand and remember these sites, they are written as a guided tour.

A Vigorous Chess Opening Repertoire for Black

Szachy > Książki New In Chess

The Petroff Defence is anything but dull. Although it is a frequent choice of top grandmasters, club players often fear that it leads to passive play. This book will debunk this prejudice and open new vistas. The Petroff that Or Cohen champions is sharp and ambitious. The Israeli FIDE Master has studied and practised his favourite opening, also known as the Russian Game, for many years. Based on his experience he has turned it into a vigorous weapon with which Black doesn#8217;t play for a draw but fights for a win. Cohen offers many exciting choices for Black in the Petroff, backed by new analysis and samples of his own games and those of top players. Every line radiates his love of lively piece play. In a separate part, Cohen deals with all the 1.e4 lines that White can try to avoid the Petroff. Here, too, he comes up with a wealth of fresh and sharp ideas. This book provides you with an accessible, comprehensive and vibrant repertoire against the ever popular 1.e4, based on the fundamentally solid first move 1

Ernesto Guevara in search of adventure, Ernesto Guevara in search of America, Ernesto Guevara in search of Che. On this journey, solitude found solidarity. 'I' turned into 'we.'" Eduardo Galeano"As his journey progresses, Guevara's voice seems to deepen, to darken, colored by what he witnesses in his travels. He is still poetic, but now he comments on what he sees, though still poetically, with a new awareness of the social and political ramifications of what's going on around him." January Magazine"Our film is about a young man, Che, falling in love with a continent and finding his place in it." Walter Salles, director of the film version of The Motorcycle Diaries"All this wandering around 'Our America with a Capital A' has changed me more than I thought."

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The perfect gift for fans of HBO's Game of Thrones--a boxed set featuring the first five novels! An immersive entertainment experience unlike any other, A Song of Ice and Fire has earned George R. R. Martin--dubbed "the American Tolkien" by Time magazine--international acclaim and millions of loyal readers. Now here is the entire monumental cycle:A GAME OF THRONESA CLASH OF KINGSA STORM OF SWORDSA FEAST FOR CROWSA DANCE WITH DRAGONS"One of the best series in the history of fantasy."--Los Angeles Times Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse--unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances. Now Robert is riding north to Winterfell, bringing his queen, the lovely but cold Cersei, his son, the cruel, vainglorious Prince Joffrey, and the queen's brothers Jaime and Tyrion of the powerful and wealthy House Lannister--the first a swordsman without equal, the second a dwarf whose stunted stature belies a brilliant mind. All are heading for Winterfell and a fateful encounter that will change the course of kingdoms. Meanwhile, across the Narrow Sea, Prince Viserys, heir of the fallen House Targaryen, which once ruled all of Westeros, schemes to reclaim the throne with an army of barbarian Dothraki--whose loyalty he will purchase in the only coin left to him: his beautiful yet innocent sister, Daenerys."Long live George Martin . . . a literary dervish, enthralled by complicated characters and vivid language, and bursting with the wild vision of the very best tale tellers."--The New York Times
