Down and Out in Paris and London
'You can live on a shilling a day in Paris if you know how. But it is a complicated business'
As a struggling writer in his twenties, Orwell lived as a down-and-out among the poorest members of society. In this, his early memoir, Orwell recalls with vivid clarity his time working as a penniless dishwasher in Paris, pawning clothes to buy a day's worth of bread and wine, sleeping in bug-infested bunks, trading survival skills and cigarette butts with fellow tramps, and trudging between London's workhouse spikes for a few hours' sleep and tea.
With all of the sensitivity and compassion that Orwell is known and loved for, he exposed the hardships of poverty and gave readers an unprecedented look at life lived on the fringes of society.
Star Wars: The Tales of Kenobi
Tatooine, the harsh desert planet on the edge of civilized space, is an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding. Known to locals only as “Ben,” the bearded and robed offworlder shares nothing of his past and goes through great pains to remain an outsider. But when violence erupts between some of Tatooine’s farmers and a tribe of marauding Tusken Raiders, Ben finds himself drawn into the conflict. It’s a move that may reveal him as Obi-Wan Kenobi, hero of the Clone Wars and an enemy of the Empire—and endanger his true mission as protector of the galaxy’s last hope.
Tales from the Cafe: Before the Coffee Gets Cold
In a small back alley in Tokyo, there is a cafe which has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than one hundred years. But this coffee shop offers its customers a unique experience: the chance to travel back in time . . .
From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold comes Tales from the Cafe, a story of four new customers each of whom is hoping to take advantage of Cafe Funiculi Funicula's time-travelling offer.
Among some faces that will be familiar to readers of Toshikazu Kawaguchi's previous novel, we will be introduced to:
The man who goes back to see his best friend who died 22 years ago
The son who was unable to attend his own mother's funeral
The man who travelled to see the girl who he could not marry
The old detective who never gave his wife that gift . . .
This beautiful, simple tale tells the story of people who must face up to their past, in order to move on with their lives. Kawaguchi once again invites the reader to ask themselves: what would you change if you could travel back in time?

Cash Johnny - Greatest Hits And Favorites (Transparent Red) 2LP
John R. Cash (26. február 1932 – 12. september 2003) bol americký country spevák a skladateľ. Väčšina Cashovej hudby obsahovala témy smútku, morálneho súženia a vykúpenia, najmä v neskorších fázach jeho kariéry. Bol známy svojim hlbokým, pokojným basbarytónovým hlasom, charakteristickým zvukom jeho sprievodnej skupiny Tennessee Three charakterizovaným: cvičiacimi gitarovými rytmami. Cash je jedným z najpredávanejších hudobných umelcov všetkých čias, predal viac ako 90 miliónov nahrávok po celom svete. Jeho žánrovo rozsiahla hudba zahŕňala country, rock and roll, rockabilly, blues, folk a gospel. Táto crossoverová príťažlivosť mu priniesla vzácnu česť, že bol uvedený do siene slávy country hudby, rock and rollu a gospelu.
