30-Second Mythology
30-Second Mythology offers the shortest path to a world of gods and monsters. So much modern culture traces its origins back to Greek and Roman mythology (witness 2010’s ‘Clash of the Titans’ and ‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’). The stories provide wonderful references to make your conversation more heroic and raise your imagination closer to the gods. Sail through these fifty 30-second legends to discover what Hercules did to deserve his twelve labors, why Odysseus took ten years to travel 500 miles, and how Narcissus found the love of his life. The perfect reference book for creative writers, it covers gods and goddesses, heroes and monsters, story locations and the great storytellers. There are also condensed versions of the tragic tales alongside explanations of their modern legacies: from the Oedipus Complex to the Narcissus Syndrome.

I Heard You Paint Houses
Now filmed as 'The Irishman' starring Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci
'I heard you paint houses' are the first words Jimmy Hoffa ever spoke to Frank 'the Irishman' Sheeran. To paint a house is to kill a man. The paint is the blood that splatters on the wall and floors. In the course of nearly five years of recorded interviews Frank Sheeran confessed to Charles Brandt that he handled more than twenty-five hits for the Mob, and for his friend Hoffa.
Sheeran learned to kill in the US Army, where he saw an astonishing 411 days of active combat during World War 2. After returning home he became a hustler and a hit man, working for legenday crime boss Russell Bufalino. Eventually Sheeran would rise to a position of such prominence that he was named as one of only two non-Italians on a list of the twenty-six most wanted Mob figures.
When Bufalino ordered Sheeran to kill Hoffa, the Irishman did the deed, knowing that if he refused, he would have been killed himself.
Sheeran's important and fascinating story includes brand new information on other famous murders, and provides rare insight into an infamous chapter in US and Mafia history. This is a page turner that is destined to become a true-crime classic.

Rebellis dívák
A világhírű emberek élete az őket övező kíváncsiság miatt mindig legendás, még ha maguk ezt nem is így élik meg. Audrey Hepburn például visszautasította a sokmillió dolláros ajánlatot, mely arra szólt, hogy írja meg életrajzát, mert nem tartotta különösen érdekesnek a saját életét, s mivel szerény volt, és nem várt sokat az élettől, elvárásai mindig sokszorosan teljesültek, mint azt a könyvből megtudhatjuk. A Rebellis dívák hat világhírű hölgy élettörténete, akik a könyvbéli sorrendben a következők: Maria Callas, Coco Chanel, Wallis Simpson, Eva Perón, Audrey Hepburn és Jackie Kennedy. A szerző, Cristina Morató, e legendás csillagok életének fény és árnyoldalait mutatja be: a sikert és a hírnév mögött rejtőző félénkséget, szorongást, magányt.
