The Spirit Level - Seamus Heaney - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

The Spirit Level - Seamus Heaney - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

The poems in Seamus Heaney''s collection The Spirit Level keep discovering the possibilities of ''a new beginning'' in all kinds of subjects and circumstances. What is at stake, in poem after poem, is the chance of buoyancy and balance, physical, spiritual and political. Private memories, classical scenes, humble domestic objects - a whitewash brush, a sofa, a swing - are endowed with talismanic significance, while friends and relatives are invoked for their promise and steadfastness. Throughout the collection, Heaney addresses his concerns, which inevitably include the political situation in his native Northern Ireland, in a poetry that never ceases to be fluid, alert and completely truthful.

Shock and Awe - Simon Reynolds - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Shock and Awe - Simon Reynolds - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

A Guardian, Sunday Times, Mojo , Daily Telegraph and Observer Book of the Year Longlisted for the Penderyn Music Book Prize 2017 As the sixties dream faded, a new flamboyant movement electrified the world: GLAM! In Shock and Awe , Simon Reynolds explores this most decadent of genres on both sides of the Atlantic. Bolan, Bowie, Suzi Quatro, Alice Cooper, New York Dolls, Slade, Roxy Music, Iggy, Lou Reed, Be Bop Deluxe, David Essex -- all are represented here. Reynolds charts the retro future sounds, outrageous styles and gender-fluid sexual politics that came to define the first half of the seventies and brings it right up to date with a final chapter on glam in hip hop, Lady Gaga, and the aftershocks of David Bowie''s death. Shock and Awe is a defining work and another classic in the Faber Social rock n roll canon to stand alongside Rip it Up , Electric Eden and Yeah Yeah Yeah .

F. Powys'' editor, concludes his preface in a way that would be difficult to better, ''They (the stories) should all be read slowly. Powys is not a literalist; his words convey more than their face value. These stories treat of the general and unalterable, with subtlety of thought and feeling, and with simplicity of presentation. Wisdom and humour are embedded in them. They reveal the infinite mystery, the fluid inconsistencies of life. They are delicate, wiry and human. ''God''s eyes'' are ''a-twinkle''. But the main business is the incalculable doings of that oddity Man.'' In addition to God''s Eyes A-Twinkle , Faber Finds are reissuing the following T. F. Powys books: Mr Tasker''s Gods ; Mark Only ; Fables ; Mockery Gap ; Innocent Birds .

When Anna is kissed by a mysterious stranger at a NYE masquerade ball , a dance of seduction begins. ''So original and refreshing.'' Hilary Mantel ''Brilliantly seductive ... A witty, sexy, sophisticated treat.'' Sarah Waters ''Superb ... Sheer artistic insolence.'' Iris Murdoch ''A great novel ... A swirling, sumptuous, sensual feast.'' Guardian London, New Year''s Eve. Snow falls on a Georgian mansion, vibrating with the festivities of a masquerade ball within. Middle-aged divorcee Anna stands alone - until the clock chimes midnight and a mysterious figure kisses her on the mouth. Thus begins a dance of seduction charged by clandestine romances swirling around them, whipping the ball into an frenzy of operatic proportions - until the night climaxes, revealing unease beneath the glitter ... A scandalous sensation in 1964, Brigid Brophy''s The Snow Ball is ripe to seduce a new generation of readers.''I read it in one sitting ... Wonderful!'' Claire-Louise Bennett ''A feminist remodelling of libertine fervour and passion. '' Eley Williams ''One of the wittiest British writers of the past half century ... A comet in her day.'' Terry Castle What Readers Are Saying: An ornate masterpiece. Sensual, wicked, clever; its dark heart glittering. So pleasurable and original and weird.Takes the heady, lusty, excitement that comes with new love and mingles it with the exuberance, decadence, and hedonism of NYE ... A short swirling treat.A perfect little masterpiece, an opera in paperback ... I was seduced and I hoped and I flinched and I laughed and I admired.The lovechild of Angela Carter and Virginia Woolf: trippy and fluid, existential and erotic, funny and witty: a hedonistic comedy of manners.I think I love this crazy little book .. Super sexy ... Made me hoot out loud with glee for the language and audacity.Oh man, this was a lot of fun. Such a strong sense of intelligence and wit behind every sentence.
