Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. LONGLISTED FOR THE DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD 2017THE TOP TEN SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERAmory Clays first memory is of her father doing a handstand but it is his absences that she chiefly remembers. Her Uncle Greville, a photographer, gives her both the affection she needs and a camera, which unleashes a passion that irrevocably shapes her future. She begins an apprenticeship with him in London, photographing socialites for magazines. But Amory is hungry for more and her search for life, love and artistic expression will take her to the demi-monde of 1920s Berlin, New York in the 1930s, the Blackshirt riots in London, and France during the Second World War, where she becomes one of the first women war photographers.In this enthralling story of a life fully lived, William Boyd has created a sweeping panorama of the twentieth century, told through the camera lens of one unforgettable woman.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. All things pass is this your philosophy? Is there no room for love in your philosophy of life?

When Kolia is invited to visit his oldest friends on their Estate in the country he anticipates a pleasant break from Moscow life.

Hardback. Condizione: Fair. "The Emile Of Jean Jacques Rousseau, Selected, Translated And Interpreted By William Boyd" "In the 200 years since its publication in 1762, Rousseau's Emile has been the subject of endless controversy. The work was ordered burned in Paris and Geneva within weeks of its appearance; yet it was read passionately throughout Europe. Goethe called it 'the teacher's gospel,' while Kant maintained that no book had ever moved him so deeply. . . . Within this context it is well, perhaps to note a judgment Professor Boyd himself rendered a half-century ago at the beginning of a long and distinguished career in the field of education. 'I believe . . . that the Emile with all its faults is the most profound modern discussion of the fundamentals of education, the only modern work of the kind worthy to be put alongside the Republic of Plato.' . . . I know of no better definition of a classic.". No DJ; Owner's Name inside. Missing dust jacket. Green cloth cover with some wear and fading. Previous owner's name written in pen on page one.
