Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - From the heathered fells and lowlands of Cumbria with their history of smouldering violence, to the speed and heat of summer London, to an eerily still lake in the Finnish wilderness, Sarah Hall evokes landscapes with extraordinary precision and grace. The characters within these territories are real-life survivors, but whether it's a frustrated housewife seeking extreme experience or a young woman contemplating the death of her lover, dark devices and desires rise to the surface. And the human body, too - flawed, visceral, and full of emotional conflict - provides a sensuous frame for each unfolding drama.Uniquely disturbing and deeply erotic, this collection confirms Sarah Hall as one of the greatest writers of her generation.The BEAUTIFUL INDIFFERENCE includes 'Butcher's Perfume', which was short-listed for the BBC National Short Story Prize in 2010 208 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Julia Copus's poems bring humanity and light to some of our most intimate and solitary moments, repeatedly breathing life into loss. In two previous collections, she has been feted as among the most compelling poets to have emerged in recent years; now, in The World's Two Smallest Humans, she is writing at her most captivating yet. These finely tuned poems are the fruit of her upbringing in a musical family, an affinity with the Classics, a fascination with the arc of time, and an unflinching scrutiny of love and personal relationships. Born out of a powerful sense of place, the poems navigate through a beguiling sequence of interior and exterior landscapes, whether revisiting Ovid, negotiating the perils of one composer's attempt to step into the shoes of another or describing, from shifting perspectives, a young girl's escape from suburban ennui. The book concludes with a moving arrangement of pieces that explore the author's experience of IVF: poems written with wry humour and with grace, which celebrate the mysteries of conception alongside the sometimes surreal business of medical intervention. The World's Two Smallest Humans is an unforgettable read. 64 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Starring Christopher Bale, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Cillian Murphy and Morgan Freeman, the trilogy commenced with Batman Begins, which traced the origins of how Bruce Wayne took on the role of the masked crusader to fight the forces of evil. But the Batman's adversaries in the first film paled in comparison to the forces of anarchy unleashed by The Joker in the second film, The Dark Knight. Physically and psychologically depleted by his encounter with The Joker, in The Dark Knight Rises, Batman must marshal all his forces to meet the threat to Gotham City posed by the masked villain Bane.These three films form a trilogy unique in the history of cinema - and express a dark imaginative vision that reflects the uncertainties of the 21st century. Nominated for thirteen BAFTA awards and nine Oscars, the Dark Knight Trilogy starred Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman and Morgan Freeman. Christopher Nolan's other films include Insomnia, Momento, Inception and most recently Interstellar starring Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway. 576 pp. Deutsch.
