Paperback. Condizione: Good. "An enchanting double-helix biography . . . Contains enough mad capers, heaving proposals and dramatic death throes to be a veritable Harlequin romance for the literary set . . . It's lacy and necessary filigree between the sober straight lines of history." --Alexandra Jacobs, The New York Times Book Review For fans of Nancy Mitford's The Pursuit of Love, this is the real-life story of Celia and Mamaine Paget: "devoted twins, whose lives and loves traversed the intellectual currents and crises of mid-twentieth century Europe" (Rupert Christiansen). After Celia Goodman née Paget died in 2002, her daughter, Ariane Bankes, inherited a battered trunk stuffed with letters and diaries that belonged to Celia and her identical twin sister, Mamaine. This correspondence charted two remarkable lives spent amongst a dazzling cast of characters who were at the heart of their age, including Arthur Koestler, Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and George Orwell. Throughout a secluded childhood in the country with their widowed father, boarding school, and Swiss finishing school, the twins remained inseparable. As debutantes, they took 1930s London by storm, rejecting conventional suitors in favor of life together amongst the city's bohemian intelligentsia. During the war and after, they were at the side of Europe's foremost intellectuals--as coworkers, close friends, and lovers. This captivating memoir is an intimate portrait of a lost age and the male thinkers who dominated it, as seen through women's eyes. Above all, it's the tale of two devoted sisters, remarkable women both.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. "Not since Kafka has a writer created such terror and tenderness on the same page. Vivek is probably the best writer writing in any language anywhere . . . If you want to read one novel from anywhere in the world, read Sakina's Kiss." --Mohammed Hanif A taut story of hidden violence and self-deception from "an Indian Chekhov" (Suketu Mehta) Venkat considers himself fortunate: he and his wife Viji lead a comfortable life in Bangalore, successfully navigating work and family in a modernizing India that is still rooted in tradition. One Saturday evening, two strange young men come knocking at their door, claiming to have business with their daughter, Rekha. A college senior, Rekha happens to be away visiting relatives in the countryside, and Venkat sends the boys away. But the next day the boys return, and this time they're not alone. Soon, Venkat and Viji find their quiet life upended--and the seams in their marriage begin to tear open. Beginning to fear for his daughter's safety, Venkat is haunted by memories of similar, sinister events from his own youth, culminating in a betrayal and disappearance he'd prefer to forget. As Venkat's guilt-ridden imagination leaps between knowing and unknowing, evasion and confrontation, Vivek Shanbhag reveals not just the tensions in a marriage or a family, but also a dangerous, encroaching political polarization. Precise, enigmatic, and suspenseful, Sakina's Kiss fulfills the promise of Vivek Shanbhag's lauded debut, Ghachar Ghochar, which Parul Sehgal called "A great Indian novel.elegant, lean, balletic" (The New York Times).…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. "Operation Heartbreak is short, surprising and a joy to read . . . A perfect novel is a rare thing . . . How does [it] fit into the historical Operation Mincemeat? Ah, that is the most brilliant part of all--a shock, a joy and a perfect shift in the story . . . [A] classic." --John Self, The Times (UK) A perfectly told tale of defeat and glory--and a paean to gallantry in the face of the absurd--inspired by a real-life secret mission during World War II. Orphaned in the first months of World War One, when his father is killed in action, Willie Maryington dreams only of joining the same cavalry regiment and going to the front. The Armistice dashes seventeen-year-old Willie's plans, but not his dreams of glory, and he makes the regiment the center of his adult existence. Yet, as the years go by, Willie falls increasingly out of step, not only with civilian life, but with the modern military, where horse charges are a thing of the past, and where a gulf yawns between those who saw action and those who did not. When hostilities peak out again between Germany and England, Willie has become a relic. No one could guess that he will be chosen for a mission whose outcome might well decide the course of the Second World War. Inspired by a real-life triumph of pitish counterintelligence (codenamed "Operation Mincemeat"), and based on classified sources, Operation Heartpeak was suppressed by the pitish government until 1950. A work of "jewel-like pevity and intensity" (New York Herald Tribune), it is a study in nostalgia and bewildered idealism to place beside the novels of Joseph Roth and Ford Madox Ford. …
