Ireland Alastair Sawday Publishing

Inne 1

Why go to Ireland when you can get just as wet in Wales, as drunk in Doncaster and as happy in Honolulu? Let me explain. It is first of all a country of poets. Indeed, Irishmen play upon their language as we play upon our musical instruments, plunging us into despair one moment and rapture the next. And they do love playing. ('My one claim to fame in Ireland is that I have never made a speech'.) They seem to have time, when the rest of us have ulcers. They see humour where we see trouble, and are wry with it. (' A woman drove me to drink and I never even had the courtesy to thank her'.) They are lyrical, romantic, tough and hopeful - banking heavily on God having a sense of humour. Ireland also has some of the loveliest countryside in Europe and if you take this book along you will be lured deep into it. And when you get there you will find yourself among friends, for this book is a glittering collection of appealing people, living in houses that are a mix of the spectacular, the cosy and the unusual. Here's another ludicrous generalisation: they make terrific friends, for friendship is much of what life is about. In England we suffer from a haunting fear that someone somewhere else, may be happier than we are. In Ireland they expect to be happy. You can see what even the thought of Ireland does to you. Here I am writing drivel when I should be luring you into the book. Hey - but you'll go there anyway, I know you will.

1930s Home Bloomsbury Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The 1930s home presented an exciting new way of living for the generation that moved out to the suburbs. Young couples who had previously rented accommodation in urban centres found themselves able to afford new-build homes with hot running water, a bathroom indoors and even aerials for the wireless already installed. Some four million houses were erected, mostly in cosy semi-detached styles that harked back to traditional cottage architecture. The design elite rejected this 'Stockbroker Tudor' look and opted instead for brave, flat-roofed modernist villas. But whether the house drew on historical references or futuristic ones, interest in interior decoration boomed. This book introduces the homes that people fell in love with in the 1930s, and the fixtures and fittings that went in them. With nearly hundred illustrations and informative chapters on architectural styles, gardens, furnishings and technology in the home, this book is the most popular introductory guide to the houses of the period. It is not only a practical and valuable companion for people who own or wish to renovate an inter-war house but also will appeal to all those interested in period design.

Cycle of the Werewolf Slovart

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Something inhuman has come to Tarker's Mills, as unseen as the full moon riding the night sky high above. The first scream came from the snowbound railwayman who felt the werewolf's fangs ripping at his throat. The next month there was a scream of ecstatic agony from the woman attacked in her cosy bedroom. Now scenes of unbelievable horror unfold each time the full moon shines on the isolated Maine town of Tarker's Mills. No one knows who will be attacked next. But one thing is sure. When the full moon rises, a paralysing fear sweeps through Tarker's Mills. For snarls that sound like human words can be heard whining through the wind. And all around are the footprints of a monster whose hunger cannot be sated . . . 'The undisputed master of suspense and terror' - Washington Post 'King probably knows more about scary goings on in confined, isolated places than anybody since Edgar Allan Poe' - Entertainment Weekly 'America's greatest living novelist' - Lee Child
