The Stonemason: A Play in Five Acts Vintage Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

From a writer hailed as an American original -- and the author of the national bestsellers All the Pretty Horses and The Crossing -- comes a taut, expansively imagined drama about four generations of an African American family. The setting is Louisville, Kentucky, in the 1970s. The Telfairs are stonemasons and have been for generations. Ben Telfair has given up his education to apprentice himself to his grandfather, Papaw, a man who knows that "true masonry is not held together by cement but...by the warp of the world." Out of the love that binds these two men and the gulf that separates them from the Telfairs who have forsaken -- or dishonored -- the family trade, Cormac McCarthy has crafted a drama that bears all the hallmarks of his great fiction: precise observation of the physical world; language that has the bite of common speech and the force of Biblical prose; and a breathtaking command of the art of storytelling.

Opis - Pierwsze na świecie świadectwo ofiary zbrodni honorowej. Miała siedemnaście lat i zakochała się: zhańbiła rodzinę. Więc rodzina wydała na nią wyrok śmierci... Pokochała go pierwszą miłością. Myślała, że się z nią ożeni. Ale ukochany zniknął, a ona odkryła, że jest w ciąży. A w jej świecie to najcięższa zbrodnia... W zapomnianej przez Boga wiosce w Cisjordanii kobiety są warte mniej niż zwierzęta domowe. Tu mężczyzna jest panem życia i śmierci żony, córki, siostry. Brat może bezkarnie zabić siostrę, matka - córkę, kolejną bezużyteczną dziewczynkę, jaka się urodzi. Tu kobiecie odbiera się godność, a nawet życie zgodnie z odwiecznym obyczajem i uświęconą tradycją. A śmierć jest karą dla dziewczyny, która zhańbi rodzinę. Tak jak Souad. Wyrok wydaje jej ojciec. Szwagier dokonuje egzekucji. Oblewa Souad benzyną i podpala... SOUAD przeżyła - cudem, ale rodzina usiłowała zabić ją nawet w szpitalu. Na zawsze jednak pozostanie straszliwie okaleczona - na ciele i duszy. I wciąż musi się ukrywać; dopóki żyje, jej rodzinę okrywa hańba. Spalona żywcem, opublikowana pod pseudonimem szokująca opowieść o piekle, jakim było jej dzieciństwo i młodość, stała się międzynarodowym bestsellerem. Wydana w 37 w krajach książka przerywa tabu milczenia wobec istniejącej nadal w krajach muzułmańskich barbarzyńskiej tradycji. Nieludzkiego obyczaju, prawa mężczyzn, na mocy którego co najmniej pięć tysięcy kobiet pada co roku ofiarą zbrodni honorowej. Nazwa - Spalona Żywcem Wyd.

PUG TAROT DECK PUG&DUCK Verlag

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

These cards are based on the classic tarot deck. A special feature of this game is - besides the pug illustrations - two additional cards which are "The Loyalty" and "The Unicorn". In addition, special laying techniques can be used for interpretation, which we developed especially for the Mops Tarot. You can ask the Mops Tarot cards by using the formation of the Bowl or the Paw or - even with more detail - the decision of the Unicorn. The cards can be asked in many ways, for example using the very classic oracle type according to tendencies. "The Paw" is very well suited for this, or for in between "the little bone", also to describe a current state or to recognize alternative perspectives. Current thoughts and questions that concern us can be focused well with the decision of the unicorn.This Mops Tarot deck differs in its symbolism from the classic tarot game. This is due to the Mops who of course is involved in all Major and Minor Arcana. The following symbols apply to him:The mandatory pentacles are represented in this deck as Sausages (Würste). Why is that? Because the pentacle (coin) is only valuable to humans, for a dog or even a pug it is worthless. A sausage, however, carries great value for our classic Tarot pug.The swords convert to bones (Knochen) in the Mops Tarot. This is due to the fact that a pug can play, nibble, or fight in play with a bone - not with a sword.Here, cups turn obviously into bowls (Napf). Their meaning is at least as big as the one of the sausages. Of course, it is of great importance, if these bowls are filled - with food or treats - or if they are empty or even knocked over...The wands turn into sticks (Stöckchen). Explaining is unnecessary in this case due to the Tarot Wand being way too long for the pug. But with a little stick he has a lot more options. The Tarot Mops can play with it, show off, threaten, fight, or even nibble on it. 24 cards represent the Major Arcana, which show the wisdom of the Tarot through their symbols. The Minor Mops Arcana cover 56 cards that are divided into four suits. Each of these suits consist of 10 pip cards and 4 court cards.The court cards contain Mops Page, Mops Knight, Mops Queen and Mops King. Character traits are assigned to the cards which are determined and refined by the symbolism of the Mops Tarot elements sausages, bones, bowls, and sticks:All Mops Pages symbolize character traits such as being childlike, immature, playful and carefree. These traits can be interpreted as persons with these characteristics, often however, they also indicate opportunities.Mops Knights symbolize impulsiveness, emotionality and sometimes aggression depending on the context. The young adult or teenager who wants to achieve his goals but acts impulsively and uncontrollably finds its definition in the Mops Knight. As already mentioned, an interpretation can describe people with these characteristics, but often moods and dispositions can be referred to.The Mops Queens represent femininity, emotion, and intuition. Depending on the element that is related, the characteristic of this card is refined. Therefore, the Mops Queen of bones is much braver and bolder than the Mops Queen of bowls, who due to the element of water acts more reserved, emotional, and intuitive. During an interpretation the Mops Queens may symbolize persons that surround us with these features, and sometimes even us.Strength, power, authority are the characteristics of the Mops Kings. Just as mentioned for the Mops Queens, the interpretation of a Mops King card depends on the particular element that joins the Mops King for his attribute. Therefore, the Mops King of bones will be dominant and self-conscious, while the Mops King of bowls is more empathic, vulnerable, and sensitive. During an interpretation the Mops Kings may symbolize persons that surround us with these features, and sometimes even us.

Seagull Bloomsbury Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

A Methuen Student Edition of Chekhov's classic play in Michael Frayn's acclaimed translation 'The play has been flooded with light, like a room with the curtains drawn back' John Peter, Sunday Times'The direct simplicity of this new translation ...uncovers not only the nerve endings of Chekhov's restless malcontents but also their comic absurdities. It is, as he always intended, actually funny ...' Jack Tinker, Daily MailWhen it opened in St Petersburg in 1896, The Seagull survived only five performances after a disastrous first night. Two years later it was revived by Nemirovich-Danchenko at the newly-founded Moscow Art Theatre with Stanslasky as Trigorin and was an immediate success. Checkhov's description of the play was characteristically self-mocking: "A comedy - 3F, 6M, four acts, rural scenery (a view over a lake); much talk of literature, little action, five bushels of love".Michael Frayn's translation was commissioned by the Oxford Playhouse Company.
