Описание: Contends that in the age of infinite publication, the truly cultivated person is not the one who has read a book, but the one who understands the book`s place in our culture. This book examines the many kinds of `non-reading` (forgotten books, unknown books, books discussed by others, books we`ve skimmed briefly).

Описание: 'April 19th, 1831. In two or three hours I'll be dead.' So begins the chilling last testament of Gus Landor, a retired New York City police constable, whose numerous talents include code-breaking, riot control and the 'gloveless interrogation'. A young cadet has been found hanged at a military academy on the shores of the Hudson River.

Before his body could be buried, however, it was stolen and his heart brutally carved out. Fearing a scandal, the top brass at West Point have summoned Landor to help catch the culprit, and keep his discoveries away from prying eyes. As Landor embarks on a thrilling adventure to solve the case, he uncovers a series of dark secrets and finds unlikely assistance in the form of a mischievous young cadet named Edgar Allan Poe.THE PALE BLUE EYE is a brilliantly atmospheric historical mystery, full of drama and unexpected twists.

From the events of one seemingly ordinary afternoon, Louis Bayard conjures a tale as haunting as it is entertaining.
