-Titulo Original : Joan Didion The Year Of Magical Thinking (Collins Modern Classics) /anglais-Fabricante : HARPER COLLINS-Descripcion Original: Introducing the Collins Modern Classics, a series featuring some of the most significant books of recent times, books that shed light on the human experience - classics which will endure for generations to come.A single person is missing for you, and the whole world is emptyJohn Gregory Dunne and Joan Didion saw their daughter fall ill. At first they thought it was flu, then she was placed on life support. Days later, the Dunnes were sitting down to dinner when John suffered a massive and fatal coronary.This powerful book is Didion’s ‘attempt to make sense of the weeks and then months that cut loose any fixed idea I ever had about death, about illness’.

-Titulo Original : A Class Act Life As A Working-class Man In A Middle-class World-Fabricante : HarperCollins-Descripcion Original: THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER‘Pacy, witty, and affectionate,’ Guardian.‘A very funny book,’ Jonathan Ross‘A fantastic read…so warm, so honest, so affectionate,’ Chris EvansRob Beckett never seems to fit in. At work, in the middle-class world of television he’s the laddie, cockney geezer, but to his mates down the pub in south-east London, he’s the theatrical one, a media luvvie. Even at home, his wife and kids are posher than him.In this hilarious exploration of class, Rob compares his life growing up as a working-class kid to the life he lives now, trying to understand where he truly belongs.Will he always be that fat kid who was told he’d never be a high-flyer? Why does he feel ashamed if he does anything vaguely middle class? Will he ever favour craft beer over lager? What happens if you eat 50 olives and drink two bottles of champagne? Why is ‘boner’ such a funny word?In search of answers, Rob relives the moments in his life when the class divide couldn’t be more obvious. Whether it’s the gig for rich bankers that was worse than Matt Hancock hosting the GQ Men of the Year Awards, turning up at a swanky celebrity house party with a blue bag of cans from the offy or identifying the root of his ambition as a childhood incident involving soiled pants and Jurassic Park, Rob digs deep.A Class Act is his funny, candid and often moving account of what it feels like to be an outsider and the valuable (sometimes humiliating) life lessons he’s learned along the way. Review ‘Pacy, witty and affectionate’ Guardian’The first chapter of Rob Beckett’s book nails more about the British class system than anything else I’ve ever read,’ bestselling author Kerry Wilkinson‘A very funny book,’ Jonathan Ross‘A fantastic read…so warm, so honest, so affectionate,’ Chris Evans About the Author Rob Beckett burst onto the comedy circuit ten years ago and hasn’t looked back since.

-Titulo Original : Tales From The Perilous Realm-Fabricante : HarperCollins-Descripcion Original: Vinyl LP pressing. 2018 release. Eitr is the new brainchild of Nachtzeit, the man behind ambient dark metal project Lustre. Representing the first recording of this new adventure, Hadanfarden takes us back to the time of the Norse gods and the death of Balder, masterminded by the ever-devious Loki. As the waves of mischievous, playful synth wash over our senses we are transported to Asgard and any misgivings over the potential of an album without lyrics to tell a story are dispelled. Are we now Loki or merely observers in his game of trickery and cunning? Hadanfarden could just be the album we all wished Dauði Baldrs could have been. We take the form of the old woman with Loki as he tricks Friggr into telling him the one substance that can harm Balder. We feel the breeze and air of expectation as he strides with the branch of the little mistletoe bush back to the hall in Galdsheim. The contrast between the air of joviality of the masses and the dark, conniving nature of Loki is tangible and the theatre of it all captured in simple sonic form. There is ancient magic at play here, no doubt. The spirit of the Norse gods and their tales is alive and well in Eitrs softly lilting music - lulling us, a la Loki into a false sense of peace and security. All the while Balder is imprisoned by Hel, aided by the cave-dwelling giantess Thokk, or should we say... Loki...
