Описание: 50th Anniversary Edition - With an introduction by Caity Weaver, acclaimed New York Times journalist

This cult classic of gonzo journalism is the best chronicle of drug-soaked, addle-brained, rollicking good times ever committed to the printed page. It is also the tale of a long weekend road trip that has gone down in the annals of American pop culture as one of the strangest journeys ever undertaken.

Also a major motion picture directed by Terry Gilliam, starring Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro.

Описание: In this memoir, Hunter S. Thompson looks back over decades of fast living, hard drinking and sharp writing. It is a story of crazed road trips fuelled by bourbon and black acid, of insane judges and giant porcupines, of girls, guns, explosives and, of course, bikes.

Описание: In "The Further Tale of Peter Rabbit", a new tale written by Emma Thompson, Peter's adventures take him beyond the boundaries of Mr McGregor's garden all the way to Scotland. Here he meets the gentle giant Finlay McBurney, a distant Scottish relative, and much entertainment ensues. Emma Thompson, Oscar-winning actress and screen writer, is a long time admirer of Beatrix Potter's tales.

She has a talent for creating engaging narratives with a dry humour similar to Potter's own and is the perfect choice of author for this new Peter Rabbit tale, to be published 110 years after the original. Emma was inspired to set the tale in Scotland by her knowledge of Beatrix's childhood holidays there.

Описание: NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY
People O: The Oprah Magazine Financial Times Kansas City Star BookPage Kirkus Reviews Publishers Weekly Booklist

With a voice as distinctive and original as that of The Lovely Bones, and for the fans of the speculative fiction of Margaret Atwood, Karen Thompson Walker's The Age of Miracles is a luminous, haunting, and unforgettable debut novel about coming of age set against the backdrop of an utterly altered world.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

';It still amazes me how little we really knew. . .

. Maybe everything that happened to me and my family had nothing at all to do with the slowing. It's possible, I guess.

But I doubt it. I doubt it very much.'

On a seemingly ordinary Saturday in a California suburb, Julia and her family awake to discover, along with the rest of the world, that the rotation of the earth has suddenly begun to slow. The days and nights grow longer and longer, gravity is affected, the environment is thrown into disarray.

Yet as she struggles to navigate an ever-shifting landscape, Julia is also coping with the normal disasters of everyday lifethe fissures in her parents' marriage, the loss of old friends, the hopeful anguish of first love, the bizarre behavior of her grandfather who, convinced of a government conspiracy, spends his days obsessively cataloging his possessions. As Julia adjusts to the new normal, the slowing inexorably continues.

Praise for The Age of Miracles

';If you begin this book, you'll be loath to set it down until you've reached its end.'San Francisco Chronicle

';Provides solace with its wisdom, compassion, and elegance.'Curtis Sittenfeld

Описание: Does anyone ever stop and think what they`re about to do? How their action can affect people`s lives? I heard once or twice that your decisions are like a domino effect, one decision can affect many. Why make choices that you know you will regret? Why put people through pain? Can you actually say that you ever thought about how many people you hurt? Explain in so many words why we treat people like they don`t mean anything. Many of us are the victims in cases like these. Maybe you are the victimizer, in that case describe why you felt that treating someone so bad would make you feel better? Well, did it? Maybe you should look in the mirror and ask if you are truly happy with being yourself? Or maybe you feel the need to take out all the pain you bottle up on someone who doesn`t deserve it. Maybe it`s just me but I am done with thinking of all the reasons why people get involved in situations they can`t dig themselves out of, well here is my story...
