A Dance With Death
He laces his fingers into my hair and slowly draws me in, his powerful hand gently threaded into the wet strands. I whimper, from fear more so than pain. It doesn’t hurt. But each word is enunciated as he warns, “Do. Not. Ever. Steal. From. Me. Again.”Corliss Bell would do anything to bring her older sister, Aven, back to life. She’d give up her dreams of being a professional ballerina. She’d resign herself to never leaving the small seaside town of The Pins. Hell, she’d even make a deal with a demon. After all, demons are masters of death. When a town mystic tells Corliss there’s a demon living nearby who may be the key in returning Aven to life, she’s emboldened by the idea of getting her beloved sister back. Corliss sneaks into the demon’s dilapidated mansion to beg for his help. But instead of finding him, she discovers a pair of enchanted red ballet slippers and steals them. The demon comes to reclaim what is his but finds Corliss and the slippers hopelessly intertwined. He imprisons her in his mansion, forcing her to dance for him every evening as punishment for stealing. Far from a helpless captive, Corliss begins working out a plan to bring Aven back to life, as soon as she can convince the demon—Orrin—to help her. Hauntingly beautiful, with lush prose and a vividly creepy atmosphere, A Dance With Death is a compulsively juicy read that will wind its way into your psyche. Part horror, part magic—this is the gothic love story you didn't know you were missing.
The Proposition of the Season
Perfect for Bridgerton and Jane Austen fans! Fall in love with the Fairfax family and make this your favourite new Regency series… ‘And you’ve come here today to read me a lecture in all my deplorable habits?’ ‘No…’ she stalled, wracking her brain for inspiration and failing, ‘I’ve come here to ask you to marry me!’ After three disastrous seasons, bookish Josephine Fairfax believes that she is long past the age of finding her perfect fictional hero. But when her brother’s loathsome Monstrous Marriage Masterplan results in her youngest sister Matilda’s engagement to the vastly unsuitable Lord Huntingly, even she must draw the line.

A Place Both Wonderful and Strange
For the first time, the complete history of David Lynch and Mark Frost's Twin Peaks, told through fascinatingly detailed reporting and exclusive interviews with the show's cast and creators. 'The high point of TV as a medium. David Lynch's Twin Peaks may never be bettered.' Guardian'Anybody making one-hour drama today who says he wasn't influenced by David Lynch is lying.' David ChaseFrom its initial broadcast in 1990 to the unexpected and hugely acclaimed return of the series some twenty-five years later, Twin Peaks garnered millions of fans across the world - though from the first episode, studio executives had predicted the inevitable failure of the show. In A Place Both Wonderful and Strange, film and TV critic Scott Meslow takes us behind the (red) curtain of Twin Peaks and into the unique and immersive world created by David Lynch and Mark Frost. Meslow has conducted dozens of original interviews with cast and crew - including Mark Frost, Sherilyn Fenn, James Marshall and Ray Wise - which shed new light on this extraordinary work that often raised as many questions as it answered. With David Lynch's passing in 2025, there may never be another return to the unforgettable town of Twin Peaks, yet A Place Both Wonderful and Strange draws readers back once again to the inimitable experience of the show and offers fascinating new insights and perspectives.
The Flaneur of Paris
This book gives us glimpses of literary Paris before and during the First World War. We have a guided tour of Auteuil, where Apollinaire spent his saddest days. We meet Monsieur Lehec the bookseller, who loved his books so much that 'he could bring himself to sell them only to the few he deemed worthy of acquiring them' and Liseux the publisher, who, when asked his political views, replied: 'I am a republican, but of the republic of letters.'The Flaneur of Paris was published in the year of Apollinaire's death. More than a century later, it makes its debut in English, elegantly translated by Alex Andriesse. From the Cafe Napo to Ernest La Jeunesse's room, from an obscure Napoleonic museum to Monsieur Vollard's cellar, The Flaneur of Paris is a fragmented song, inviting us to walk down to the Seine. Alex Andriesse is a poet and has translated, notably, Chateaubriand's Memoirs from Beyond the Grave (NYRB Classics), Cristina Campo's The Unforgivable (NYRB Classics), and Jacques Dupin's Notched (Hermits United).

Je to příběh pro všechny z Vás, kteří už vědí, že manželství není souboj. V souboji se totiž dá vyhrát.

A love triangle emerges, pitting promises and passion against betrayals and lies.

Set against the backdrop of the Gilded Age, this is a dark tale of dangerous, suspenseful seduction.

Germany and the Middle East
For over a century, the Middle East has weathered seemingly endless conflicts, ensnaring political players from around the world. And perhaps no nation has displayed a greater range of policies toward, and experiences in, the region than Germany, as this short and accessible volume demonstrates. Beginning with Kaiser Wilhelm’s intermittent support for Zionism, it follows the course of German-Mideast relations through two world wars and the rise of Adolf Hitler. As Steininger shows, the crimes of the Third Reich have inevitably shaped postwar German Mideast policy, with Germany emerging as one of Israel’s staunchest supporters while continuing to navigate the region’s complex international, religious, and energy politics.
