Wielding her signature sardonic wit and a penchant for the gorgeously macabre, Virginia Feito returns with a vengeance in Victorian Psycho.
Eseje a morality
Dalimír Hajko patrí medzi výnimočné osobnosti slovenského kultúrneho vedeckého života.
Jeho širokospektrálna angažovanosť vyše polstoročia, prinášala zrelé plody vedeckého výskumu kritického myslenia o literatúre a kultúre, aktívnej publicistiky a editorskej či vydavateľskej činnosti.
Je v tomto smere zrejme držiteľom primátu v počte autorských knižných titulov, ale od knižného debutu (1975) je jeho tvorba aj hlbokou a na slovenské pomery nevšedne rozvetvenou stopou zakotvujúcou slovenské myslenie do súradníc svetového myšlienkového pohybu od staroveku po humanizmus, renesanciu, osvietenstvo a národné obrodenie až po najnovšie modernistické výboje. Je dozaista jedným z ojedinelých priekopníkov uvedomelého prepájania slovenskej literatúry so slovenskou filozofiou a kulturológiou a neúnavným objavovateľom súvislostí medzi kultúrami iných národov, myšlienkovými a umeleckými prúdmi, reprezentovanými erbovými velikánmi slovenskej a svetovej duchovnosti.

The Devil in the Flesh
'A triumph of the poetic intelligence: a masterpiece' New Statesman'So shrewd, so ruthless, glittering and clever... every page he wrote was a delight' Fay WeldonIn this novel of desire and perdition, a bored and precocious adolescent pursues the wife of a soldier fighting in the First World War. At first attracted to Marthe out of sheer aimlessness, he finds himself falling in love. Consumed by sensual pleasure and power games, the pair do nothing to disguise their affair - until the consequences of their heedlessness begin to unfold.This shockingly sexy novel rocketed its teenage author into overnight fame in the 1920s - and was all the more scandalous for being based on his life.Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: timeless storytelling by icons of literature, hand-picked from around the globe.Translated by Christopher Moncrieff.Raymond Radiguet (1903-1923) entered Parisian literary society with a bang when The Devil in the Flesh was published. Only eighteen at the time, he became the star of an unprecedented publicity campaign and earned copious praise and censure for his precocious talent and scandalous behaviour - the more so as the novel was based on his own wartime affair with a soldier's wife. A protégé and perhaps lover of Jean Cocteau, he fraternized with artists, dancers and aristocrats, drank heavily, and generally ran riot, before settling down for a brief period, during which he wrote one more novel, Count d'Orgel, also published by Pushkin Press. Shortly after the manuscript was completed, he contracted typhoid fever and died within a few weeks, aged only twenty. He is buried in Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris.Christopher Moncrieff is a poet, linguist and literary translator from French, German and Romanian. As well as a writing career he has served in the military and produced son et lumiere spectacles. He is descended from the poet Robert Burns.

Railsong
'Magnificent' KAMILA SHAMSIE'Majestic yet profoundly tender' MEGHA MAJUMDAR A breathtaking novel about a woman forging a life for herself on the railways, Railsong is the story of an individual coming of age amid the social and political upheavals of twentieth-century India. In a newly independent India charged with national vigour, Charu, the motherless daughter of a railway worker, pines for freedom from the shackles of her impoverishment and meagre prospects. As diesel engines replace steam and the calamitous churn of drought, famine and a great strike engulfs her town, Charu dares to imagine a different future for herself. She boards a train and flees westwards, leaving behind the oppressive domesticity of her childhood for the alluring modernity, and apparent opportunities, of Bombay. Unfazed by the everyday discriminations around her, she becomes an unlikely hero: a railway woman and census enumerator who keeps her heart open —sometimes guilelessly — to her nation’s vast possibility. Sweeping, elegiac and at times wonderfully comic, Railsong is a powerful portrait of grit, optimism and the force of character that enables one remarkable woman to live on her own terms in a country full of contradictions.
