Fatal Attraction
When Rose sees Joe in an Oxford bar, for her it is instant infatuation. He is everything she could ever want: gifted musician, wit and high achiever. In her mind, at least, they are ideally matched and a burning desire for him takes hold. Fate, howev
er, has other plans and Joe has no intention of settling down. All Rose will ever be to him is part of his student past. Instead he embarks on a dazzling career which takes him abroad for a number of years, leaving Rose alone with shattered dreams. S
he knows what true happiness can be like. Her parents have always been very well married, and the late arrival of her kid sister, Lily, helped make the family complete. But when Joe returns and falls for Lily, unaware that Rose still has feelings for
him, a dangerous rivalry ensues ...one that can only lead to murder.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú obálku ako je zobrazená tu. Zobrazená obálka môže byť iba ilustr

Under a Blood Red Sky
Davinsky Labour Camp, Siberia, 1933: Sofia Morozova knows she has to escape. Only two things have sustained her through the bitter cold, aching hunger and hard labour: the prospect of one day walking free; and the stories told by her friend Anna, beg
uiling tales of a charmed upbringing in Petrograd and of Annas fervent love for a passionate revolutionary, Vasily.
So when Anna falls gravely ill, Sofia makes a promise to escape the camp and find Vasily: to chase the memory that has for so long
spun hope in both their hearts. But Sofia knows that times have changed. Russia, gripped by the iron fist of Communism, is no longer the country of her friends childhood. Her perilous search takes her from industrial factories to remote villages, wh
ere she discovers a web of secrecy and lies, but also bonds of courage and loyalty and an overwhelming love that threatens her promise to Anna.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí

Small Urban Gardens
Whatever the importance of a garden, it will always be a place for relaxation, communal gatherings or sensual pleasures. The contemporary gardens collected in this book are a cross-section of current trends, notable not only for their use of new materials and construction techniques, but above all for their single, shared characteristic: in every case, they are small urban gardens. The following pages contain the most imaginative solutions: gardens that creep up facades, that nest on rooftops or squeeze into left-over spaces between adjoining walls or between a facade and the street. Clearly, gardens have become, more than ever before, a means to buffer the effects of fast-paced urban living&894 spaces in which to unwind, to relax and recharge one's batteries, and havens of silence in the midst of a city's bustling activity. All over the world, garden designers' strategies show us how different resources can be tapped, demonstrating how easily gardens fit in with our daily lives surrounded by concrete and asphalt, with something to offer even to the most nomadic of lifestyles.

Circus Book
During its heyday one hundred years ago, the American circus was the largest show-biz industry the world had ever seen. From the mid-1800s to mid-1900s, traveling American circuses performed for audiences of up to 14,000 per show, employed as many as
1,600 men and women, and crisscrossed the country on 20,000 miles of railroad in one season alone. The spectacle of death-defying daredevils, strapping super-heroes and scantily-clad starlets, fearless animal trainers, and startling freaks gripped t
he American imagination, outshining theater, vaudeville, comedy, and minstrel shows of its day, and ultimately paved the way for film and television to take root in the modern era. Long before the Beat generation made on the road expeditions popula
r, the circus personified the experience and offered many young Americans the dream of adventure, reinvention, and excitement.
With 670 pages and nearly 900 color and black-and-white illustrations, this book brings to life the grit and glamour behin
d the circus phenomenon. Images include photographic gems by key early circus photographers such as Frederick Whitman Glasier and Edward Kelty, about 180 of the earliest color photographs ever taken of the circus from the 1940s and 1950s, 200 posters
by the famous Strobridge lithographers, iconic circus photographs by Mathew Brady, Cornell Capa, Walker Evans, Weegee, Lisette Model, and little-known circus images by Stanley Kubrick and Charles and Ray Eames; also included are rare color and black
-and-white lithographs and engravings from the 16th19th centuries illustrating the worldwide roots of the circus, as well as original sideshow banners by legendary sideshow banner artists Nieman Eisman, Fred G. Johnson, and David Snap Wyatt.

Cities Of The World -Xl
This is history's most opulent collection of town maps and illustrations. It is the complete reprint of all 531 color plates from Braun and Hogenberg's survey of town maps, city views, and plans of Europe, Africa, Asia and Central America, with dozens of unusual details as well as selected extracts from the original text and an in-depth commentary. It is first published in Cologne 1572-1617.Five centuries after it was originally published in Cologne, Braun and Hogenberg's magnificent collection of town map engravings, "Civitates Orbis Terrarum", has been brought back to life with this reprint taken from a rare and superbly preserved original set of six volumes. Produced between 1572 and 1618 - just before the extensive devastation wreaked by the Thirty Tears' War - the work contains 531 plans, bird's-eye views, and map views of all major cities in Europe, plus important cities in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.Edited and annotated by theologian and publisher Georg Braun and largely engraved by cartographer Franz Hogenberg, the Civitates was intended as a companion volume for Abraham Ortelius' 1570 world atlas, "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum". Over a hundred different artists and cartographers contributed to the sumptuous artwork, which not only shows the towns but also features additional elements, such as figures in local dress, ships, ox-drawn carts, courtroom scenes, and topographical details, that help convey the situation, commercial power, and political importance of the towns they accompany.The Civitates was, and remains, a unique undertaking which gives us a comprehensive view of urban life at the turn of the 17th century. "Taschen's" reprint includes all of the city plates, accompanied by selected extracts from Braun's texts on the history and contemporary significance of each urban center as well as translations of the Latin cartouches within each plate. A detailed commentary places each city map in its cartographical and cultural context and examines earlier sources and later editions. Rounding off this comprehensive publication is a separate introductory essay examining the Civitates in its cultural and historical context. From Paris, London, and Rome to Mexico City, Cairo, and Jerusalem, readers will find many a familiar city to zoom back in time and explore - in fact, many of the maps can still be used for orientation in historical town centers today.

Do It Yourself Taschen
Inspired by a babysitter he surprised in front of the bathroom mirror shooting pictures of herself with his Polaroid, photographer Uwe Ommer decided to put together a book of erotic self-portraits by inexperienced photographers. Arming participants w
ith cameras and basic technical instructions, Ommer asked them to photograph themselves in any way they pleasedliberated, so to speak, from the voyeuristic eye of the photographer. Some chose to use mirrors as they captured their portraits, while ot
hers braved the camera without the help of their reflections. While many subjects required no intervention by Ommer, for others he acted as ghost photographer, helping them with the lighting and setup; in both cases, the models were free to indulge
their inspirations in any ways they pleasedfrom sexy and provocative to romantic to simply being themselves. The cast of self-portraitists includes a wide range of personalities, from students to artists, actors, stylists, dancers, models, musician
s, teachers, and more. This highly original book gives us a rare glimpse at the way everyday women see themselvesor wish they did.

Le Doigt d´Horace
Je viens de tuer trois personnes mais j'aime beaucoup votre façon de jouer. " A l'évidence, l'homme qui vient de se présenter n'est pas ordinaire. Il émane de lui une aura qui dépasse la violence des mots ; une sorte de musique de l'âme, troublante, touchant l'absolu. Dans ses silences et ses mystres, Franck est un tre profondément seul. Traqué par le milieu, lié un attentat sanglant, intelligent et porteur d'un rve immense qu'il a décidé de rendre possible, le jeune homme croise la route d'un duo tout prt l'adopter : Bob, le chauffeur de taxi qui ne prend jamais de clients, et Mister, taillé en hercule, qui joue du jazz la nuit. Pour eux, le passé de Franck est une partition inachevée. Une harmonie brisée. Un blues profond qui mérite, ô combien, qu'on en retrouve les notes..."
