Story4
"Stoner" - pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1965 - è stato per parecchio tempo uno dei grandi romanzi dimenticati della letteratura americana. John Williams racconta la vita di un uomo, Stoner appunto, che, nato in una famiglia di contadini poveri, finisce per scoprire dentro di sé una passione struggente per la letteratura e diventa professore. È la storia di un uomo che conduce una vita semplice al limite della frugalità. Una vita che lascia poche tracce.

The three novels that make up The Forsyte Saga chronicle the ebbing social power of the commercial upper-middle class Forsyte family through three generations, beginning in Victorian London during the 1880s and ending in the early 1920s. Galsworthy's masterly narrative examines not only their fortunes but also the wider developments within society, particularly the changing position of women.

Story0
William Stoner bliver i slutningen af det 19. århundrede født ind i en fattig bondefamilie i Missouri, USA. Som ung går han på landbrugsskole, men drages af litteraturens verden. Han vender aldrig hjem til forældrenes gård og vælger i stedet det akademiske liv, hvor bøgerne og litteraturen forbliver hans faste holdepunkt - også når konflikter og skuffelser truer med at ødelægge hans tilværelse. Bogen blev første gang udgivet i 1965, siden genudgivet i 2006 i USA, hvorefter mange forlag verden over fik øjnene op for romanen. Den er nu en international bestseller. "Stoner" er et fascinerende, velskrevet og rørende portræt af en helt almindelig mand, hvis liv man ikke kan undgå at blive berørt af. Det er en roman om identitet, om livet, om de valg, vi træffer.

Doch als Großneffe und Adoptivsohn Julius Cäsars fällt ihm nach dessen Ermordung ein gewaltiges Erbe zu: Ihm, der von schwächlicher Konstitution, aber enormer Willenskraft ist, wird es durch Glück, List, Intelligenz und Entschlossenheit gelingen, das riesige Römische Reich in eine Epoche des Wohlstands und Friedens zu führen.

An unlicensed promoter stumbles into the cockpit of a 1930’s seaplane and into an international air race, turning a sales stunt into a wild adventure, crossing the Australian outback, creating headlines, and near-death crashes. This is a rollicking aviation adventure based on a true story of a struggling 21-year-old ad guy and a 33-year-old seaplane spanning just 45 days as an unlicensed pilot in a daring attempt to participate in the 1969 London to Sydney Air Race. It begins with his abusive upbringing, starting at the bottom rung of the advertising world, leading to the start of his agency.

Sono gli anni Settanta dell'Ottocento. Will Andrews, dopo tre anni a Harvard, lascia il Massachusetts e, pieno di vaghi sogni e aspirazioni emersoniane verso la Natura Selvaggia, va all'Ovest. Si trova così a Butcher's Crossing, poco più che un rozzo accampamento ai margini del nulla abitato da uomini duri, sempre in cerca di un modo per fare soldi, o per scialacquarli. È proprio uno di questi individui che racconta all'ex studente di una meravigliosa valle nascosta tra le Rocky Mountains, popolata di immense mandrie di bisonti che non hanno mai conosciuto l'odore, o il fucile, dell'uomo.

Heir to a privateering tradition, he brings his schooner into the Gulf of Mexico to wage unremitting war on the British who threaten America’s freedom. But the puritanical Gideon finds the Gulf a strange and threatening place, and soon he must face Jean Laffite’s pirates, a mutiny, an attack by Red Stick Creeks, and a British invasion…none of which he finds as baffling and alarming as Maria-Anna de Suarez.
