Lacná kniha L´Ile
Le soleil brillait ? perte de vue sur la houle longue du Pacifique et le Blossom, ses trois mâts penchés ? bâbord, recevait par le travers une brise Sud-Sud-Est...Purcell pr?ta l'oreille. Bien qu'une île f?t proche, il n'entendit pas de cri d'oiseau. Sauf quand une lame déferlait, l'océan était silencieux. Mais il y avait autour de Purcell ces bruits qui, par jolie brise, lui faisaient toujours plaisir : le choc des énormes poulies de bois, la vibration des haubans, et au-dessous de lui, derri?re son dos, le passage de l'étrave dans l'eau, doux et continu comme une pi?ce de soie qu'on déchire.

Az utolsó mohikán - Elbeszélés 1757-ből
Az utolsó mohikán, a Bőrharisnya-történetek időrendben második kötete nemzedékek képzeletét ejtette rabul 1826-os megjelenése óta. Az Észak-Amerika vad tájain játszódó cselekmény középpontjában egy valóságos történelmi esemény áll, amikor 1757-ben a franciák indián szövetségesei a William Henry-erődöt feladó brit katonák és családtagjaik százait mészárolták le. E köré a véres incidens köré építi Cooper romantikus történetét fogságról, szerelmes vonzalomról és hősiességről, amelyben a mohikán Chingachgook és fia, Uncas sorsa elválaszthatatlanul összefonódik a parancsnok lányai, Alice és Cora Munro, valamint Sólyomszem, a határvidéki felderítő életével.
Indián kerül szembe indiánnal, a fehérek brutális társadalma a mohikán civilizációval - abban, ahogyan a világ az amerikai indiánt látja, egyetlen írott szöveg sem játszott akkora szerepet, mint Az utolsó mohikán.
James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) amerikai író. 1823-ban kezdte el írni legismertebb és legkedveltebb műveit, az indiánregény-ciklus öt darabját (Bőrharisnya, Az utolsó mohikán, A préri, Nyomkereső, Vadölő), melyeket a Nagy indiánkönyv néven ismerünk. Műveit Magyarországon jórészt ifjúsági átdolgozásokban adták ki. A regény teljes szövegét a modern olvasó Gy. Horváth László szöveghű fordításában élvezheti.

Disciples
Between 2004 and 2007, James Mollison attended pop concerts across Europe and the USA with a mobile photography studio, inviting fans of each music star or band to pose for their portrait outside the gig. He subsequently combined portraits of eight t
o ten fans for each performer into a single lineup, making a single panoramic image in each case. With a total of over 500 individual portraits, in 62 panoramic images, The Disciples was an original, sharp and highly entertaining take on contemporary
music culture and the tribalism invoked by popular music stars. This new and expanded affordable edition features four new images produced after the original Disciples was published, including fans of MIA, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, and a group of El
vis Presley tribute acts.

The Drum Thing
The drummer is usually the least well-known member of any band. Yet behind every frontman is the person keeping the beat, and often acting as the music's driving force. In these incredible portraits, Deirdre O'Callaghan places drummers squarely in the spotlight. Photographing her subjects in their private rehearsal spaces and residences - from studios, bedrooms and basements to garages and gardens - allows her to capture the true essence of their personalities and lifestyles. She has photographed almost 100 celebrated musicians for the book, including Tony Allen, Ginger Baker, Travis Barker, Cindy Blackman, Patrick Carney, Terri Lyne Carrington, Chris Dave, Jack DeJohnette, Bryan Devendorf, Sly Dunbar, Steve Gadd, James Gadson, Dave Grohl, Mark Guiliana, Steve Jordan, Jim Keltner, Airto Moreira, Larry Mullen Jr, Neil Peart, Questlove, Jim Sclavunos, Ringo Starr, Lars Ulrich, Joey Waronker and Jack White. Each image is accompanied by excerpts from O'Callaghan's personal conversations with the drummers. The result is a fascinating look at a truly diverse world made up of men and women from every walk of life, united by a single, emphatic passion.

Letter to a Priest
Letter to a Priest encapsulates the sharp wit and questioning nature of Simone Weil. Regarded by Susan Sontag as 'one of the most uncompromising and troubling witnesses to the modern travail of the spirit', Weil grips the moral imagination as few others before or since. She was only thirty four when she died in 1943, yet despite her short life she left behind an incredible body of literature. Letter to a Priest, addressed to Father Joseph-Marie Perrin, a Catholic priest who Weil met in Marseilles, is one of her most powerful pieces. Written at a time when those who knew her considered her to be 'like a soul in torment whose thinking had all the signs of a deep inner conflict', it contains thirty five powerful expressions of opinion on matters concerning Catholic faith, dogma and institutions. Vehement and controversial, yet eloquent and moving, it is essential reading for anyone who has questions about faith and belief.

Does Noise in my Head bother you?
The long-awaited, never-before-told, no-holds-barred memoir from the legendary Aerosmith frontman. Finally, all the lurid tales of debauchery, sex, drugs and rock n' roll are told straight from the horse's lips as The Demon of Screamin' describes his unimaginable highs and unbelievable lows as lead singer of the biggest rock band in the world. Prolific frontman, rock icon and sex symbol, Steven Tyler is a living legend. With his raw, sharp-edged vocals, musical versatility and unprecedented song writing skills, Tyler has, as lead singer of Aerosmith, sold millions of records and played sell-out concerts to as many as 450,000 people. Now, at last, he tells his own story, taking us on a wild rollercoaster ride through the bust-ups, binges, orgies and good old American excess in the jaw-droppingly honest, in-your-face way that only Tyler can. Following a fateful meeting with his 'mutant twin' Joe Perry in the summer of 1970, Aerosmith was formed!and the rest, as they say, is rock history. They released their first album in 1973, and by 1976 Aerosmith had gone from being nobodies to massive to off the radar, making history as a multi-platinum, chart-topping band. But with great success comes great excess. Nicknamed the Toxic Twins for their insatiable appetite for drugs, booze and women, Tyler and Perry got caught up in the glamour of self-destruction - smashing each other up with guitars, having seizures and passing out on stage. By 1980 it seemed that the band and its members were set to implode, but after successful stints in drug rehab, Aerosmith were back on track and better than ever. But although he may have given up his wicked, wicked ways, Tyler still enjoys talking about the bad old days. He has so many outrageous stories to tell, and he's gonna tell them all. All the uncensored, head-spinning tales of debauchery, sex, booze, transcendence and chemical dependence you will ever want to hear. As raucous, intoxicating and edgy as his music, this is the most outrageous rock n' roll autobiography of all time.
