Grace
Beautiful. Willful. Charming. Blunt. Grace Coddington's extraordinary talent and fierce dedication to her work as creative director of `Vogue` have made her an international icon. Known through much of her career only to those behind the scenes, she might have remained fashion's best-kept secret were it not for `The September Issue, ` the acclaimed 2009 documentary that turned publicity-averse Grace into a sudden, reluctant celebrity. Grace's palpable engagement with her work brought a rare insight into the passion that produces many of the magazine's most memorable shoots. With the witty, forthright voice that has endeared her to her colleagues and peers for more than forty years, Grace now creatively directs the reader through the storied narrative of her life so far. Evoking the time when models had to tote their own bags and props to shoots, Grace describes her early career as a model, working with such world-class photographers as David Bailey and Norman Parkinson, before she stepped behind the camera to become a fashion editor at British `Vogue` in the late 1960s. Here she began creating the fantasy `travelogues` that would become her trademark. In 1988 she joined American `Vogue, ` where her breathtakingly romantic and imaginative fashion features, a sampling of which appear in this book, have become instant classics. Delightfully underscored by Grace's pen-and-ink illustrations, `Grace` will introduce readers to the colorful designers, hairstylists, makeup artists, photographers, models, and celebrities with whom Grace has created her signature images. Grace reveals her private world with equal candor-the car accident that almost derailed her modeling career, her two marriages, the untimely death of her sister, Rosemary, her friendship with `Harper's Bazaar` editor-in-chief Liz Tilberis, and her thirty-year romance with Didier Malige. Finally, Grace describes her abiding relationship with Anna Wintour, and the evolving mastery by which she has come to define the height of fashion. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY `FINANCIAL TIMES ` `If Wintour is the Pope . . . Coddington is Michelangelo, trying to paint a fresh version of the Sistine Chapel twelve times a year.`-`Time`

East, West
In these nine stories, Salman Rushdie looks at what happens when East meets West, at the forces that pull his characters first in one direction, then the other. Fantasy and realism collide as a rickshaw driver writes letters describing his film star career in Bombay; a mispronunciation leads to romance and an unusual courtship in sixties London; two childhood friends turned diplomats live out in a violent world fantasies hatched by Star Trek"; and Christopher Columbus dreams of consummating his relationship with Queen Isabella. The stories in "East, West" show the extraordinary range and power of Salman Rushdie's writing."

Madame Bovary (PPC)
Emma Bovary is beautiful and bored, trapped in her marriage to a mediocre doctor and stifled by the banality of provincial life. An ardent reader of sentimental novels, she longs for passion and seeks escape in fantasies of high romance, in voracious spending and, eventually, in adultery. But even her affairs bring her disappointment and the consequences are devastating. Flaubert's erotically charged and psychologically acute portrayal of Emma Bovary caused a moral outcry on its publication in 1857. It was deemed so lifelike that many women claimed they were the model for his heroine, but Flaubert insisted: 'Madame Bovary, c'est moi'.

Napoleon the Great
Awarded The Prix Du Jury Des Grands Prix De La Fondation Napoleon 2014 From Andrew Roberts, author of the Sunday Times bestseller, The Storm of War, this is the definitive modern biography of Napoleon. Napoleon Bonaparte lived one of the most extraordinary of all human lives. In the space of just twenty years, from October 1795 when as a young artillery captain he cleared the streets of Paris of insurrectionists, to his final defeat at the (horribly mismanaged) battle of Waterloo in June 1815, Napoleon transformed France and Europe. After seizing power in a coup d'etat he ended the corruption and incompetence into which the Revolution had descended. In a series of dazzling battles he reinvented the art of warfare; in peace, he completely remade the laws of France, modernized her systems of education and administration, and presided over a flourishing of the beautiful 'Empire style' in the arts. The impossibility of defeating his most persistent enemy, Great Britain, led him to make draining and ultimately fatal expeditions into Spain and Russia, where half a million Frenchmen died and his Empire began to unravel. More than any other modern biographer, Andrew Roberts conveys Napoleon's tremendous energy, both physical and intellectual, and the attractiveness of his personality, even to his enemies. He has walked 53 of Napoleon's 60 battlefields, and has absorbed the gigantic new French edition of Napoleon's letters, which allows a complete re-evaluation of this exceptional man. He overturns many received opinions, including the myth of a great romance with Josephine: she took a lover immediately after their marriage, and, as Roberts shows, he had three times as many mistresses as he acknowledged. Of the climactic Battle of Leipzig in 1813, as the fighting closed around them, French sergeant-major wrote, 'No-one who has not experienced it can have any idea of the enthusiasm that burst forth among the half-starved, exhausted soldiers when the Emperor was there in person. If all were demoralised and he appeared, his presence was like an electric shock. All shouted "Vivel' Empereur!" and everyone charged blindly into the fire.' The reader of this biography will understand why this was so. Andrew Roberts is a biographer and historian of international renown whose books include Salisbury: Victorian Titan (winner, the Wolfson Prize for History); Masters and Commanders; and The Storm of War, which reached No. 2 on the Sunday Times bestseller list. Roberts is a Fellow of the Royal Societies of Literature and Arts. He appears regularly on British television and radio and writes for the Sunday Telegraph, Spectator, Literary Review, Mail on Sunday and Daily Telegraph.

***NEW YORK TIMES és USA Today bestseller szerző*** „Tinédzserként találkoztam először William McAlisterrel. Jóképű férfi volt, gyönyörű feleséggel. Mr. McAlister akkoriban lett édesapám partnere a cégében, és csak úgy lubickolt a sikerben. Elbűvölő személyiség volt, de nem láttam benne többet, mint egy jó családi barátot. 10 évvel később: 25 éves vagyok, egyedülálló anyaként nevelem a hétéves kisfiam. Elkövettem néhány hibát, melyeket igyekszem most rendbe hozni. Megküzdöttem a démonjaimmal, de most új életet kezdek Vancouverben. Mindenki megérdemel egy második esélyt. Ügyvezető igazgatóként kezdtem el dolgozni az apám vállalatánál. Már az első napomon tudtam, hogy ígéretes jövő áll előttem. Míg meg nem pillantottam Will McAlistert. Elvált, de ugyanolyan kifinomult maradt, mint ahogyan az emlékeimben élt. Willt már nem úgy láttam, mint apám egy barátját, már sokkal többet jelentett számomra. Sok idő telt el, mióta nem láttuk egymást. Árasztja magából a magabiztosságot és az erős szexualitást. Magas, férfias, vasalt öltöny, erős, csábító tekintet. Teljesen odalettem érte. A zaklatottságom nem segít a helyzeten, nehéz magamat távol tartanom az irodájától, amire folyamatosan rálátok. Túl sok ügyön dolgozunk együtt. Ez csak egy ártalmatlan vonzalom lenne? Egy ártatlan fantázia arról, hogyan szeretkeznék vele az íróasztalon? Esélyem sem lehet nála, hiszen ő az apám legjobb barátja, üzleti partnere és a főnököm. Igaz? Tévedés.” Karina Halle nagy sikerű Túl közel hozzád című romantikus könyve egy erőteljes történet, mely után újra hinni fogsz a szerelemben. "Nem lehet letenni" Hypable blog

Wagstaff: Before and After Mapplethorpe: A Biography
Sam Wagstaff, the legendary curator, collector, and patron of the arts, emerges as a cultural visionary in this groundbreaking biography. Even today remembered primarily as the mentor and lover of Robert Mapplethorpe, the once infamous photographer, Wagstaff, in fact, had an incalculable-and largely overlooked-influence on the world of contemporary art and photography, and on the evolution of gay identity in the latter part of the twentieth century. Born in New York City in 1921 into a notable family, Wagstaff followed an arc that was typical of a young man of his class. He attended both Hotchkiss and Yale, served in the navy, and would follow in step with his Ivy League classmates to the "gentleman's profession," as an ad executive on Madison Avenue. With his unmistakably good looks, he projected an aura of glamour and was cited by newspapers as one of the most eligible bachelors of the late 1940s. Such accounts proved deceiving, for Wagstaff was forced to live in the closet, his homosexuality only revealed to a small circle of friends. Increasingly uncomfortable with his career and this double life, he abandoned advertising, turned to the formal study of art history, and embarked on a radical personal transformation that was in perfect harmony with the tumultuous social, cultural, and sexual upheavals of the 1960s. Accordingly, Wagstaff became a curator, in 1961, at Hartford's Wadsworth Atheneum, where he mounted both "Black, White, and Gray"-the first museum show of minimal art-and the sculptor Tony Smith's first museum show, while lending his early support to artists Andy Warhol, Ray Johnson, and Richard Tuttle, among many others. Later, as a curator at the Detroit Institute of Arts, he brought the avant-garde to a regional museum, offending its more staid trustees in the process. After returning to New York City in 1972, the fifty-year-old Wagstaff met the twenty-five-year-old Queens-born Robert Mapplethorpe, then living with Patti Smith. What at first appeared to be a sexual dalliance became their now historic lifelong romance, in which Mapplethorpe would foster Wagstaff's own burgeoning interest in contemporary photography and Wagstaff would help secure Mapplethorpe's reputation in the art world. In spite of their profound class differences, the artistic union between the philanthropically inclined Wagstaff and the prodigiously talented Mapplethorpe would rival that of Stieglitz and O'Keefe, or Rivera and Kahlo, in their ability to help reshape contemporary art history. Positioning Wagstaff's personal life against the rise of photography as a major art form and the simultaneous formation of the gay rights movement, Philip Gefter's absorbing biography provides a searing portrait of New York just before and during the age of AIDS. The result is a definitive and memorable portrait of a man and an era.

A csábítás tétje
Mint mindennek, amit Lord Gabriel Sharpe tesz, Virginia Waverly elcsábításának is igen magas a tétje...
Virginia a férfit okolja bátyja haláláért, ake egy Gabe-bel folytatott fogathajtó versenyen vesztette életét. A lány évek óta másra sem vágyik, minthogy bosszút álljon a meggondolatlan lordon, és legyőzze őt a saját sportjában. Ám amikor Virginia kihívja a "Halál Angyalának" is nevezhett férfit egy versenyre, ő házassági ajánlattal válaszol. Gabe tudja, hogy a lány családja komoly pénzügyi problémákkal küzd - a házasság tehát megoldást jelentene mindkettejük számára...
Virginia mindent megpróbál, hogy ellen tudjon állni a lord csábításának, de a férfi szenvedélyes csókjai bűvkörükbe vonják. És amikor együtt elkezdik felderíteni a Roger halála körüli rejtélyt, Gabe emeli a tétet: a bátor szépségnek minden örökségnél értékesebb dolgot kínál: igaz szerelmet.
Sabrina Jeffries méltán népszerű sorozatának, a Halstead Hall bajkeverőinek negyedik része sem okoz csalódást a történelmi románcok kedvelőinek.
