Mary and Mr Eliot - Mary Trevelyan - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Mary and Mr Eliot - Mary Trevelyan - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

‘Completely fascinating, revelatory . . . A classic of its kind.’ WILLIAM BOYD ‘Compelling . . . compulsive.’ MARGARET DRABBLE, NEW STATESMAN T.S. Eliot and Mary Trevelyan shared a close friendship – twenty-five years in each others’ company: playing records; going for drives with Mary at the wheel; sharing dinners Eliot cooked in his rolled-up shirtsleeves; and attending church together. While Mary hoped it might become something more, the poet’s heart was elsewhere. Using a collection of diaries, letters and pictures Mary left behind, Erica Wagner brings together this story of an unusual friendship in this intimate portrait of T.S. Eliot and Mary, a formidable woman thus far sidelined by literary history.

Holloway - Dan Richards - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Holloway - Dan Richards - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Holloway - a hollow way, a sunken path. A route that centuries of foot-fall, hoof-hit, wheel-roll and rain-run have harrowed deep down into bedrock. In July 2005, Robert Macfarlane and Roger Deakin - author of Wildwood - travelled to explore the holloways of South Dorset''s sandstone. They found their way into a landscape of shadows, spectres & great strangeness. Six years later, after Roger Deakin''s early death, Robert Macfarlane returned to the holloway with the artist Stanley Donwood and writer Dan Richards. The book is about those journeys and that landscape. Moving in the spaces between social history, psychogeography and travel writing, Holloway is a beautiful and haunted work of art.

Property - Rowan Moore - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Property - Rowan Moore - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

‘A rallying cry for a deep rethink of how we build, buy and manage homes.’ ARCHITECTS’ JOURNAL‘A calm analysis of the concept of property ownership, its promises, successes and betrayals.’ THE SPECTATOR‘Moore situates property where it belongs – in the centre of virtually every aspect of our lives.’ SUNDAY TIMES Wherever you are on property’s wheel of chance, you are likely to be powerfully affected by it. Perhaps you have changed your life in search of a place you can afford. Or maybe you are a homeowner who worries about a crash in prices. Or perhaps you have found you are shut out of the magic kingdom of ownership and forced into paying high rents to indifferent landlords. This is a powerful examination of how property came to shape the modern world – and why it now threatens the freedom and stability it was meant to sustain.

Mahler Remembered - Norman Lebrecht - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Mahler Remembered - Norman Lebrecht - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Gustav Mahler is the most influential symphonist of the twentieth century. In this pioneering study, Norman Lebrecht reveals the man and musician through the words of his contemporaries.Using many previously unpublished documents, he constructs a profile of Mahler even more complex and compelling than that familiar from his letters and the often unreliable memoirs of his widow, Alma. Compassionate or callous, idealistic or pragmatic, Mahler aroused violently contrasting impressions and emotions in those who lived and worked with him.Accounts of the composer include the artist Alfred Roller''s description of Mahler''s naked body, a Nazi-era reappraisal by one of his closest relatives, Natalie Bauer-Lechner''s unpublished jottings of Mahler''s childhood, and Stefan Zweig''s report of his final voyage. Together, they form a remarkable and deeply illuminating image of a formidable personality.''The effect is cumulative, sometimes contradictory and vivid - like a written version of a radio or film portrait.'' Classical Music ''Norman Lebrecht''s Mahler Remembered is quite breathtakingly interesting.'' Birmingham Post

Mary and Mr Eliot - Mary Trevelyan - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

A rediscovered story of unrequited love which reveals an intimate new portrait of the poet T. S. Eliot – and of its author, a formidable woman sidelined by literary history. ‘Heartbreaking and wonderfully told.’ Susan Hill, Spectator Books of the Year ‘Compelling ... compulsive.’ Margaret Drabble, New StatesmanIn 1938 T.S. Eliot struck up a friendship with Mary Trevelyan, a passionately curious woman and intrepid traveller. Their relationship was cosy and domestic — characterised by churchgoing, record-playing, day trips with Mary at the wheel or Eliot in his rolled shirt-sleeves cooking up sausages for dinner. Over the years, Mary came to believe that their friendship might lead to something more . . . but their journey together did not end as she would have hoped.Trevelyan left a unique document — of diaries, letters and pictures — charting their twenty-year-long relationship in her vivid prose. Erica Wagner has brought this untold story together for the first time. Mary and Mr Eliot is a revelatory tale of joy, misunderstanding and betrayal that feels utterly modern and deeply human.
