The World Below

Spisovatel: Miller Sue, Bloomsbury 2001
Katalogové číslo: E8147

Cath Hubbard, a San Francisco woman in her 50s, returns to her grandmother's small Vermont house after the death of an aunt who left the property to Cath and her brother Lawrence. Cath had lived with her grandparents for a few years in her teens, after her mother's suicide, and now makes her wounded way back, in the wake of a divorce, to sort through her memories of her beloved grandmother, Georgia. This is the standard fare of American literary fiction: a life change prompting a search into the past. What is far less ordinary is Miller's placid, nuanced depiction of her protagonist's emotional journey. None of Cath's feelings can be easily predicted by the reader, but all of them ring true. She finds her grandmother's diary and begins to fill in the stories that Georgia had hinted at over the years. What Cath discovers in her grandmother's journal is a secret that has lost its power to shock; and that very wearing away of taboo adds to the poignancy of Georgia's restricted life. Her story unfolds against a backdrop of Cath's more immediate griefs and concerns and begins to recede as Cath's San Francisco life returns to claim her. Miller's prose appears effortless, but is like the gestures of a magician that conceal how the trick is accomplished. The result is a sage, continually surprising novel about finding peace of mind in a combination of habit, love, and self-determination.... v angličtine, brožovaná, 275 strán

Fiji Celebration

Spisovatel: Siers James, Milwood press 1985
Katalogové číslo: O1127

"This album of Fiji is a photographic and text tour of the islands as seen by James Siers after more than 20 years of close association. The photos reflect everything that Siers finds attractive about the country and its people, while the text shows some of his pre-occupation with Fiji's past. James Siers has earned a well-deserved reputation for his work in the Pacific, having produced pictorial books on New Zealand, Hawaii, Samoa, Tonga, Rarotonga, Moorea, Tahiti and Papua New Guinea. This is his fourth book on Fiji. Earlier this year saw the publication of his The Fiji Experience, a 144-page color pictorial guide book... v angličtine, obal, tvrdá väzba, väčší formát, 165 strán
