Описание: A lush, pictorial look at one of the world's most successful alternative rock bands, available in time to celebrate their 40th anniversary.

Into the chaos of British punk rock, a handful of school friends led by Robert Smith announced their musical arrival in 1978 with a brash single pulled from the pages of Albert Camus. The Cure soon graduated into a series of increasingly dark and brooding albums, drawing the world's attention to goth rock. But they resisted categorization, and subsequent albums--suffused with raw, intense emotion and featuring the breakout hits "In Between Days" and "Just Like Heaven"--attracted new legions of fans worldwide. Then, with the grand and somber Disintegration, the Cure achieved global domination, and, through fluctuating lineups and shifting sounds, they have flourished. Veteran music journalist Ian Gittins has interviewed and written about the Cure many times over the decades and brings deep insight to this unofficial retrospective of the group. This essential keepsake tells the story of the Cure--from the angular riffs of "Boys Don't Cry" and "A Forest," through the perfect simplicity of "Lovesong" and "Friday I'm in Love," to headlining some of the world's biggest music festivals--in beautiful, eye-catching color.

Описание:

A musical force across four decades, a voice for the ages, and a great songwriter, Chrissie Hynde is one of America’s foremost rockers. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005, she and her band The Pretenders have released ten albums since 1980. The Pretenders’ debut LP has been acclaimed as one of the best albums of all time by VH1 and Rolling Stone. In a business filled with “pretenders” and posers, Hynde remains unassailably authentic. Although she blazed the trail for countless female musicians, Hynde has never embraced the role of rock-feminist and once remarked, “It’s never been my intention to change the world or set an example for others to follow.” Instead, she pursued her own vision of rock—a band of “motorcycles with guitars.”

Chrissie Hynde: A Musical Biography traces this legend’s journey from teenage encounters with rock royalty to the publication of her controversial memoir Reckless in 2015. Adam Sobsey digs deep into Hynde’s catalog, extolling her underrated songwriting gifts and the greatness of The Pretenders’ early classics and revealing how her more recent but lesser-known records are not only underappreciated but actually key to understanding her earlier work, as well as her evolving persona. Sobsey hears Hynde’s music as a way into her life outside the studio, including her feminism, signature style, vegetarianism, and Hinduism. She is “a self-possessed, self-exiled idol with no real forbears and no true musical descendants: a complete original.”

Описание:

Today, many Christians, concerned and challenged by contemporary trends in society and religion, are bewildered and perhaps tempted to leave the Church and manage on their own. Courage and Conviction is addressed to discerning adult Christians who seek something between high theology and pious platitudes. Ranging from consideration of Christian identity, via the challenge of faith-filled living in a world of diversity, to suggestions for mature discipleship today, these reflections--building on Scripture studies, cultural anthropology, and life experience--are offered by way of support, encouragement, and perhaps further enlightenment.

Описание: Shelter Me is the third in the 'Shelter' series of novels (following Gimme Shelter & Secret Shelter), completing the trilogy and revealing the dramatic conclusion to the gripping story of Ros Gilet. In the earlier novels, Ros Gilet's family was suddenly propelled into witness protection after violent events in her early childhood. Reaching adulthood, she herself has become a Witness Protection Officer, but the organization her family testified against two decades earlier has eventually tracked down and killed her father and vowed to kill her too.

Shelter Me picks up the story, with a case of familicide uncovering links to one of the key figures in the murder case that originally sent Ros into witness protection, a man who has been supposed dead for years. Ros finally discovers the truth behind what happened to her family and a reveals a treacherous case of deception and corruption in the very police force she now works for. As the story draws inexorably to its bloody end, Ros herself contemplates a final, deadly revenge.

Описание:

These twenty-two cleverly linked stories, written over two decades, trace a life from childhood to middle age. Beginning in Lancashire in the '60s and '70s, they follow a young girl as she becomes aware of what it means to be a daughter, a sister, a lover and a woman in a family where the relationships are

constantly changing. From a disappeared clutch of curlew's eggs to the last piece of furniture left standing in a home, these bleak and funny stories bolster what is lost into poignant narratives; told with lyricism, economy and wit, they are observed with the unflinching eye of an incisive witness.
