Unfortunately, however, he is aided in his quest by Alex, a translator with an uncanny ability to mangle English into bizarre new forms; a ‘blind’ old man haunted by memories of the war; and an undersexed guide dog named Sammy Davis Jr, Jr. What they are looking for seems elusive – a truth hidden behind veils of time, language and the horrors of war.

In a vase in a closet, a couple of years after his father died in 9/11, nine-year-old Oskar discovers a key... The key belonged to his father, he's sure of that. But which of New York's 162 million locks does it open? So begins a quest that takes Oskar — inventor, letter-writer and amateur detective — across New York's five boroughs and into the jumbled lives of friends, relatives and complete strangers. He gets heavy boots, he gives himself little bruises and he inches ever nearer to the heart of a family mystery that stretches back fifty years. But will it take him any closer to, or even further from, his lost father?

Husbands: you're really only allowed one at a time ... Bella secretly married Stevie, over a decade ago; they were at university, two big kids playing at being grownups. When it all unravelled and reality hit, Bella simply got up and left. Years later, Bella meets Philip and, despite her vow never to marry again, she can't resist him. He is a catch. Funny, charming, interesting and kind. Only hitch is, she's still (technically, anyway) married to Stevie. And the moment to tell Philip never quite seems to arrive. So Bella plans never to reveal her secret — after all, it's just a silly piece of paper, lodged at a registrar's office in Aberdeen, isn't it? She hasn't seen Stevie for years — probably never will again. Except when Bella's best friend Laura introduces her new man to the gang it is none other than Stevie. Could things get any more complicated? Only if Bella and Stevie fall in love with each other again...

I Know You Got Soul

Автор: Clarkson Jeremy Издательство: Penguin Group, 2006 |
PDF, 288 страниц, 8.64 МБ

It will come as no surprise to anyone that Jeremy Clarkson loves machines. But it's not just any old bucket of bolts, cogs and bearings that ring his bell. He's scoured the length and breadth of the land, plunged into oceans and taken to the skies in search of those rare machines with that elusive certain something. Along the way he's discovered — 'the safest place to be in the event of nuclear war', 'who would win if Superman, James Bond and The Terminator had a fight', 'the stupidest person he's ever met.', 'what an old Cornish institution called Arthur has to do with 0898 chat lines' and last but by no means least 'how Jean Claude Van Damme might get eaten by a lion'... In I Know You Got Soul, Jeremy Clarkson tells the stories of the geniuses, innovators and crackpots who put the ghost in the machine. From Brunel's SS Great Britain to the Spitfire and from the woeful — but inspiring — Graf Zeppelin to Han Solo's Millennium Falcon, they were built by people who love them — and we can't help but love them in return.

The Idiot

Penguin Group

Автор: Dostoyevsky Fedor Издательство: Penguin Group, 2004 |
PDF, 768 страниц, 23.04 МБ

‘He’s simple-minded, but he has all his wits about him, in the most noble sense of the word, of course’ Returning to St Petersburg from a Swiss sanatorium, the gentle and naive Prince Myshkin – known as ‘the idiot’ – pays a visit to his distant relative General Yepanchin and proceeds to charm the General, his wife and his three daughters. But his life is thrown into turmoil when he chances on a photograph of the beautiful Nastasya Filippovna. Utterly infatuated with her, he soon finds himself caught up in a love triangle and drawn into a web of blackmail, betrayal and, finally, murder. In Prince Myshkin, Dosteyevsky set out to portray the purity of ‘a truly beautiful soul’ and to explore the perils that innocence and goodness face in a corrupt world. David McDuff’s new translation brilliantly captures the novel’s idiosyncratic and dream-like language and the nervous, elliptic flow of the narrative. This edition also includes a new introduction by William Mills Todd III, which is a fascinating examination of the pressures on Dostoyevsky as he wrote the story of his Christ-like hero.
