Day the Sun Died Vintage Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

`One of the masters of modern Chinese literature' Jung ChangThis gripping dystopia contrasts the reality of life in China today with the sunny optimism of the `Chinese dream'. One dusk in early June, in a town deep in the Balou mountains, fourteen-year-old Li Niannian notices that something strange is going on. As the residents would usually be settling down for the night, instead they start appearing in the streets and fields.There are people everywhere. Li Niannian watches, mystified. Until he realises the people are dreamwalking, carrying on with their daily business as if the sun hadn't already gone down.And before too long, as more and more people succumb, in the black of night all hell breaks loose. Set over the course of one night, The Day the Sun Died pits chaos and darkness against the bright `Chinese dream' promoted by President Xi Jinping. We are thrown into the middle of an increasingly strange and troubling waking nightmare as Li Niannian and his father struggle to save the town, and persuade the beneficent sun to rise again.Praise for Yan Lianke's books: `Nothing short of a masterpiece' Guardian`A hyper-real tour de force, a blistering condemnation of political corruption and excess' Financial Times`Mordant satire from a brave fabulist' Daily Mail `Exuberant and imaginative' Sunday Times `I can think of few better novelists than Yan, with his superlative gifts for storytelling and penetrating eye for truth' New York Times Book Review

The Innocents Abroad

Historia. Archeologia >Historia krajów, narodów i miejsc

'Who could read the programme for the excursion without longing to make one of the party?'So Mark Twain acclaims his voyage from New York City to Europe and the Holy Land in June 1867. His adventures produced The Innocents Abroad, a book so funny and provocative it made him an international star for the rest of his life. He was making his first responses to the Old World - to Paris, Milan, Florence, Venice, Pompeii, Constantinople, Sebastopol, Balaklava, Damascus, Jerusalem, Nazareth, and Bethlehem.For the first time he was seeing the great paintings and sculptures of the 'Old Masters'. He responded with wonder and amazement, but also with exasperation, irritation, disbelief. Above all he displayed the great energy of his humour, more explosive for us now than for his beguiled contemporaries....

Death in the Afternoon vintage

Historia. Archeologia >Historia krajów, narodów i miejsc

Still considered one of the best books ever written about bullfighting, Death in the Afternoon is an impassioned look at the sport by one of its true aficionados. It reflects Hemingway's conviction that bullfighting was more than mere sport and reveals a rich source of inspiration for his art. The unrivaled drama of bullfighting, with its rigorous combination of athleticism and artistry, and its requisite display of grace under pressure, ignited Hemingway's imagination. Here he describes and explains the technical aspects of this dangerous ritual and "the emotional and spiritual intensity and pure classic beauty that can be produced by a man, an animal, and a piece of scarlet serge draped on a stick." Seen through his eyes, bullfighting becomes a richly choreographed ballet, with performers who range from awkward amateurs to masters of great elegance and cunning.A fascinating look at the history and grandeur of bullfighting, Death in the Afternoon is also a deeper contemplation of the nature of cowardice and bravery, sport and tragedy, and is enlivened throughout by Hemingway's sharp commentary on life and literature....

Purcell: Complete Music for Strings

Kultura. Sztuka. >Muzyka Taniec Śpiew

Such was his renown in the musical world -- 'one of the most celebrated Masters of the Science of Musick in the Kingdom and scarce inferior to any in Europe' -- when Henry Purcell tragically died aged only 36 in 1695, that he was essentially afforded a state funeral. This collection brings together the composer's complete works for strings.Showing Purcell's success as a cutting-edge composer, both sets of sonatas showcase the contrapuntal technique with which he would become so intimately linked, demonstrating the techniques that Purcell detailed in John Playford's The Introduction to the Skill of Musick of 1694. The act of pushing the boundaries of composition here is in stark contrast to the Fantasias, which resurrected a form that had been long since forgotten. The use of the viol -- rather than its more modern counterpart, the violin -- is also a curious choice, but this series of works may in fact be the last written for viol consort. Among them in this special collection is the magnificent 'Golden Sonata' as well as the 'One Note Fantasia', in which the tenor viol plays a sustained middle C for the entire piece, perhaps showing Purcell's impish sense of humour, with the part being intended for a particularly unskilled player.The works are performed by Musica Amphion, a group dedicated to performing works of the 17th and 18th centuries on period instruments. The ensemble was formed in 1993 by harpsichordist Pieter-Jan Belder and the leader is violinist Rémy Baude, who is also concertmaster of Frans Brüggen's Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century.Other information:- Recorded in The Netherlands: 2006 (Hervormde Kerk, Rhoon) & June 2007 (Doopsgezinde Kerk Deventer)- Featuring the famous Fantasias and the Sonatas in 4 Parts, music of immense contrapuntal skill and deep emotion, drawing unheard-of sounds from the ensemble, harmonies of poignant beauty and melancholy.- Excellent performances by the Dutch Early Music group Musica Amphion, under the supervision of Pieter-Jan Belder, which received 5-star reviews in several international classical magazines.- Contains extensive liner notes on the composer and works....

For Friends Colleagues Vol. II: Reflections on my Profession

Szachy > Inne wydawnictwa

Mark Dvoretsky  has long been considered one of the premier chess coaches and trainers in the world.He is renowned for taking talented masters and forging them into world-class grandmasters and champions.His literary achievements are also quite distinguished.For example, Dvoretsky#8217;s Endgame Manual, now in its fourth edition, established itself as the sine qua non of endgame theory from the moment it appeared over a decade ago.In this second volume of his highly-acclaimed autobiographical work, the author focuses on his early development as a player, issues which challenge chess coaches, as well as varied topics related to improving one#8217;s play.Whether you are a player, coach, fan or passionate aficionado, you will find this second volume as enjoyable and enlightening as the first.Like Volume I, Volume II is also available in the Deluxe Limited Signed Numbered edition. Matthew Sadler, former British Champion: "A wonderful reservoir of chess knowledge - I feel like I've learned tons of new postional ideas already." Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine (UK): "Very broad in scope, it offers no quick fixes or guarantees of improving one's play (..) Rather, it is a serious chess book with a long shelf-life and one to which I will return to often (..) A cornucopia of chess excellence; a book for the connoisseur."Here#8217;s what the critics had to say about Volume I: Former British Champion Matthew Sadler: "A great book, full of humour, great chess, disappointments (some on the chess level, some on the personal level with students), pride and success! One for every chess player's bookshelf." Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine (UK): "There is a strong line of narrative (..) there are plenty of games, too (..) It's definitely not a conventional autobiography, but one will certainly learn a lot more about the man regarded by many as the world's best chess trainer and the little anecdotes featuring a whole gallery of chess personalities will add insights not to be found anywhere else (..) A fascinating tome." Chris Wainscott, ChessIQ.com: #8220;An insightful glimpse into the mind of one of the strongest coaches in any sport ever to walk the face of the earth. I can#8217;t recommend this book highly enough, especially for students of chess history.#8221;
