Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος She's Come Undone Εκδ. Οίκος SCRIBNER Συγγραφέας Lamb, Wally ISBN : 9780684860091 Περίληψη Meet Dolores Price. She's thirteen, wise-mouthed but wounded. Beached like a whale in front of her bedroom TV, she spends the next few years nourishing herself with the chocolate, crisps and Pepsi her anxious mother supplies. When she finally rolls into young womanhood at 257 pounds, Dolores is no stronger and life is no kinder. But this time she's determined to rise to the occasion and give herself one more chance before really going belly up. In his extraordinary coming-of-age odyssey, Wally Lamb invites us to hitch an incredible ride on a journey of love, pain, and renewal with the most heartbreakingly comical heroine to come along in years. At once a fragile girl and a hard-edged cynic, so tough to love yet so inimitably loveable, Dolores is as poignantly real as our own imperfections.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος Buddenbrooks: The Decline of a Family Εκδ. Οίκος PENGUIN Συγγραφέας Thomas Mann ISBN : Περίληψη A Major Literary Event: a brilliant new translation of Thomas Mann's first great novel, one of the two for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1929. Buddenbrooks, first published in Germany in 1900, when Mann was only twenty-five, has become a classic of modem literature -- the story of four generations of a wealthy bourgeois family in northern Germany. With consummate skill, Mann draws a rounded picture of middle-class life: births and christenings; marriages, divorces, and deaths; successes and failures. These commonplace occurrences, intrinsically the same, vary slightly as they recur in each succeeding generation. Yet as the Buddenbrooks family eventually succumbs to the seductions of modernity -- seductions that are at variance with its own traditions -- its downfall becomes certain. In immensity of scope, richness of detail, and fullness of humanity, Buddenbrooks surpasses all other modem family chronicles; it has, indeed, proved a model for most of them. Judged as the greatest of Mann's novels by some critics, it is ranked as among the greatest by all. Thomas Mann was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1929.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος Power a new social analysis Εκδ. Οίκος UNWIN Συγγραφέας Bertrand Russell ISBN : Περίληψη The key to human nature that Marx found in wealth and Freud in sex, Bertrand Russell finds in power. Power, he argues, is man's ultimate goal, and is, in its many guises, the single most important element in the development of any society. Writting in the late 1930s when Europe was being torn apart by extremist ideologies and the world was on the brink of war, Russell set out to found a 'new science' to make sense of the traumatic events of the day and explain those that would follow. The result was Power, a remarkable book that Russell regarded as one of the most important of his long career. Countering the totalitarian desire to dominate, Russell shows how political enlightenment and human understanding can lead to peace - his book is a passionate call for independence of mind and a celebration of the instinctive joy of human life.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος The old wives' tale Εκδ. Οίκος PENGUIN Συγγραφέας Arnold Bennett ISBN : Περίληψη Those two girls, Constance and Sophia Baines, paid no heed to the manifold interest of their situation, of which, indeed, they had never been conscious. They were, for example, established almost precisely on the fifty-third parallel of latitude. A little way to the north of them, in the creases of a hill famous for its religious orgies, rose the river Trent, the calm and characteristic stream of middle England. Somewhat further northwards, in the near neighbourhood of the highest public-house in the realm, rose two lesser rivers, the Dane and the Dove, which, quarrelling in early infancy, turned their backs on each other, and, the one by favour of the Weaver and the other by favour of the Trent, watered between them the whole width of England, and poured themselves respectively into the Irish Sea and the German Ocean. What a county of modest, unnoticed rivers! What a natural, simple county, content to fix its boundaries by these tortuous island brooks, with their comfortable names—Trent, Mease, Dove, Tern, Dane, Mees, Stour, Tame, and even hasty Severn! Not that the Severn is suitable to the county! In the county excess is deprecated. The county is happy in not exciting remark. It is content that Shropshire should possess that swollen bump, the Wrekin, and that the exaggerated wildness of the Peak should lie over its border. It does not desire to be a pancake like Cheshire. It has everything that England has, including thirty miles of Watling Street; and England can show nothing more beautiful and nothing uglier than the works of nature and the works of man to be seen within the limits of the county. It is England in little, lost in the midst of England, unsung by searchers after the extreme; perhaps occasionally somewhat sore at this neglect, but how proud in the instinctive cognizance of its representative features and traits! Constance and Sophia, busy with the intense preoccupations of youth, recked not of such matters. Classics Α/Α: 16 Ξενόγλωσσα ΞΕΝ Έτος έκδοσης: 1954 Αντίτυπα: 1 Ημ. Εισαγωγής 19/10/2018 Αρ.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος Being There Εκδ. Οίκος BANTAM Συγγραφέας Jerzy Kosiński ISBN : 0553232460 Περίληψη A modern classic now available from Grove Press, Being There is one of the most popular and significant works from a writer of international stature. It is the story of Chauncey Gardiner - Chance, an enigmatic but distinguished man who emerges from nowhere to become an heir to the throne of a Wall Street tycoon, a presidential policy adviser, and a media icon. Truly "a man without qualities," Chance's straightforward responses to popular concerns are heralded as visionary. But though everyone is quoting him, no one is sure what he's really saying. And filling in the blanks in his background proves impossible. Being There is a brilliantly satiric look at the unreality of American media culture that is, if anything, more trenchant now than ever.

Polly Hampton has long been groomed for the perfect marriage by her mother, the fearsome and ambitious Lady Montdore. But Polly, with her stunning good looks and impeccable connections, is bored by the monotony of her glittering debut season in London. Having just come from India, where her father served as Viceroy, she claims to have hoped that society in a colder climate would be less obsessed with love affairs. The apparently aloof and indifferent Polly has a long-held secret, however, one that leads to the shattering of her mother’s dreams and her own disinheritance. When an elderly duke begins pursuing the disgraced Polly and a callow potential heir curries favor with her parents, nothing goes as expected, but in the end all find happiness in their own unconventional ways.

'" Is there only one woman in the world? she asked, smiling. "Why make yourself so miserable in so short a life?" 'I looked at Pauline in bewilderment.

I was so absorbed by my passion, that I could not remember how I had managed to live without money; I only knew that the four hundred and fifty francs due to me would pay my debts. So I went to receive my salary, and met Rastignac, who thought me changed and thinner. '" What hospital have you been discharged from?" he asked. '" That woman is killing me," I answered; "1 can neither despise her nor forget her." '" You had much better kill her, then perhaps you would think no more of her," he said, laughing. '" I have often thought of it," I replied; "but though sometimes the thought of a crime revives my spirits, of violence and murder, either or both, I am really incapable of carrying out the design. The countess is an admirable monster who would crave for pardon, and not every man is an Othello." '" She is like every woman who is beyond our reach," Rastignac interrupted. " I am mad," I cried; "I can feel the madness raging at times in my brain. My ideas are like shadows; they flit before me, and I cannot grasp them.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος Maison de Rubens Εκδ. Οίκος Συγγραφέας Baudouin, F. ISBN : Περίληψη En 1608, après un séjour de huit ans en Italie, Rubens revient à Anvers. Il épouse Isabelle Brandt en octobre 1609 et les deux époux s'installent d'abord chez la famille Brandt. Le jeune artiste, peintre à la cour des Archiducs, cherchait une résidence qui put lui convenir. Un an plus tard, l'occasion finit par se présenter : Rubens fait alors l'acquisition d'un terrain "sur le Wapper", situé Vaarstraat. D'un montant considérable pour l'époque, le prix d'un montant de 10.000 florins devait être amorti en trois versement. C'est en cet endroit que le peintre fit bâtir sa demeure et son atelier anversois, ensemble architectural emblématique du statut exceptionnel auquel était parvenu l'artiste dans la cité scaldéenne. Son installation définitive n'eut lieu qu'en 1615, tant les travaux avaient traîné. En 1937, la maison de Rubens devenait propriété de la ville d'Anvers. L'ouverture au public eut lieu en 1946, date de l'achèvement des fouilles et de la reconstruction. Auteur de La Maison de Rubens, Frans Baudouin (Malines, 1920 - Anvers, 2005) avait été nommé à la tête de ce musée en 1950, puis du musée Mayer van den Bergh deux ans plus tard ; il était également en charge du parc du Middleheim, consacré à la sculpture du XXe siècle. En 1977, il fut le commissaire de l'exposition Rubens qui célébrait le 400e anniversaire de la naissance de l'artiste. Guide sommaire Α/Α: 32 Ξενόγλωσσα ΞΕΝ Έτος έκδοσης: 1977 Αντίτυπα: 1 Ημ.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος The rehearsal Εκδ. Οίκος FARRAR, STRAUS AND GIROUX Συγγραφέας Sarah Willis ISBN : 9780374248611 Περίληψη An engaging new novel about love, on-stage and off In the spring of 1971, Will Bartlett, an ambitious director at a small resident theatre, has an idea: he will invite his cast of Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men" to his country farm for a month, giving them the opportunity of "becoming" their characters, and enhancing the realistic atmosphere of his next production. Will's family grudgingly agrees to his sudden change of plan, but events and personalities rapidly spiral out of his control. The cast of nine men and one woman is already unevenly balanced, but the situation is made even worse when Melinda--the woman playing the part of Curley's Wife--fails to turn up at the farm as expected. Will's wife, Myra, takes the role, although she has not been on stage since their daughter, Beth, was born. Sixteen-year-old Beth is furious, having already decided that the part should be hers. When the self-obsessed Will remains oblivious to the problems between Myra and Beth, as well as the increasing distance between himself and his wife, Myra finds herself looking at her husband's best friend in a new light. The tension grows between members of Will's family, and the other actors find themselves drawn into a complex tangle of relationships, leading them to question not only how well they know each other, but also how well they know themselves.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος Burning Marguerite Εκδ. Οίκος KNOPF Συγγραφέας Elizabeth Inness - Brown ISBN : 9780375411960 Περίληψη The tragic family circumstances that bring together a young man and the "aunt" who raises him are the subject of this lyrical first novel, which ranges in setting from the rocky Northeast to the sultry South. The story begins on a tiny New England island in the late 1990s, as James Jack discovers the dead body of the 94-year-old woman he knew as his aunt, Marguerite Anne Bernadette-Marie Deo, as he is returning to the cottage they shared. The death sets off a series of parallel flashbacks revealing a tangled web of tragedy and murder that forms the backbone of the two characters' overlapping pasts, with fire as a recurring motif. It was a fire that led to Jack being placed in Deo's care, and that story is relayed, as is some of Jack's twisted family history. A tender account of his budding relationship with Faith, a woman who enters his life just before Deo's death, serves as counterpoint to the story of Deo's early life and her ill-fated affair with a Native American laborer that resulted in a shocking murder. InnessBrown probes her characters deftly and thoroughly, using landscape and sense of place to augment the plot as the setting shifts to New Orleans and back to New England. Occasionally the chronology of the narrative gets a bit muddled as it switches back and forth between the flashbacks of Jack, Faith and Deo, but there's no doubt about this author's ability to convey the complex passions of her characters. Following on the heels of two wellreviewed short story collections (Satin Palms and Here), this novel represents a solid building block in the foundation of a promising career.

Καρτέλα Βιβλίου Τίτλος The Torn Skirt Εκδ. Οίκος HARPERFLAMINGO CANADA Συγγραφέας Rebecca Godfrey ISBN : 9780002255196 Περίληψη Rebecca Godfrey’s debut novel relates a pivotal few days in the life of 16-year-old Sara Shaw. Raised by her gentle hippie father, she is a quiet teenager who loves “the safety of bank balances, the clean smell of bleach.” Sara’s life is thrown off balance when her burnout friends rape Heather, a stoner girl at school, with a garden hose. Heather explains, “It was just sex. They wanted to do it so I let them.” Sara, attracted to Heather’s tough exterior but puzzled by her vulnerability, attempts to find out the meaning of these contradictions by descending into the down-and-dirty Red Zone of Victoria, B.C., circa 1984. The Torn Skirt is a raw, intimate novel: it feels as though a girl sitting next to you on the bus is showing you her diary. Godfrey effectively captures the self-centred teenager’s love of drama, and the extreme and sudden personality shifts. She gets the teenage voice and psyche down cold – so cold that, at times, Sara is as annoying as a real teenager. Sara’s downfall is too swift to be completely believable, though – she goes from boredom to almost-whoredom and substance abuse, with a stint in rehab thrown into the mix, topped off by a contemplation of suicide by drug overdose and a stabbing, all in a matter of days. The book manages to grab and hold onto the reader because Godfrey’s writing often sparkles: Sara’s injured skater boy-friend is “seamed like a teddy bear,” while a man has lips that are “clammy and metallic. It was like kissing a lock.” At its best, The Torn Skirt exposes the fragile underbelly of adolescence and of the City of Gardens – perhaps the story feels implausible because we’d rather not believe in what is found there.
