George VI
Автор: Sarah Bradford Жанр: Penguin Group Издательство: Penguin Group Год: 2011 Страниц: 704 Дата загрузки: 16 декабря 20132013-10-11
|
George VI reigned through taxing times. Acceding to the throne upon his brother's abdication, he was immediately confronted with the turmoil in European politics leading up to the Second World War, then the War itself, followed by a period of austerity, social transformation and loss of Empire. George was unprepared for kingship, suffering from a stammer which could make public occasions very painful for him. Moreover he had grown up in the shadow of his brother, a man who had been idolized as no royal prince has been, before or since. However, as Sarah Bradford shows in this sympathetic biography, although George was not born to be king, he died a great one.

From Russia with Love: WITH Dr: No: AND Goldfinger
Автор: Ian Fleming Жанр: Penguin Group Издательство: Penguin Group Год: 2009 Страниц: 640 Дата загрузки: 16 мая 20122010-06-25
|
The arrival of James Bond in Modern Classics at last acknowledges Fleming's remarkable place in British fiction. The creator of an entire genre and the inventor of the most widely recognised figure in British literature since Sherlock Holmes, Fleming has a presence and flair now denied to most other writers of the 1950s. These three novels show Fleming at his peak — it would be hard to argue whether Rosa Klebb, Dr No or Goldfinger have greater grandeur or repulsiveness — with three plots of deranged implausibility and many of the dazzling set-pieces that made the early films so memorable.

The Best of Everything
Автор: Rona Jaffe Жанр: Penguin Group Издательство: Penguin Group Год: 2011 Страниц: 512 Дата загрузки: 18 июня 20132014-09-20
|
When it first published in 1958, Rona Jaffe's debut novel electrified readers who saw themselves reflected in its story of five young employees of a New York publishing company. There's Ivy League Caroline, who dreams of graduating from the typing pool to an editor's office; naive country girl April, who within months of hitting town reinvents herself as the woman every man wants on his arm; Gregg, the free-spirited actress with a secret yearning for domesticity. Now a classic, and as page-turning as when it first came out, The Best of Everything portrays their lives and passions with inteligence, affection, and prose as sharp as a paper cut.
