Cudzojazyčná / Anglická

"Rapers" follows the rise and fall of Jemel "Jimmy" Karami, a brilliant and utterly amoral Lebanese businessman. The plot tells two converging stories - Jimmy's ascension to power, and the desperate plan he concocts to hold his place as the mideast crumbles beneath him. Though mideastern, Karami is not Moslem - he's Christian Lebanese, and he's spent much of his life away from home, he's less a fixture of "le oriente" than the avarice of global commerce. The story opens in the late 1960's - with Jimmy's position brought to the brink by a Beirut banking crisis in late 1966. The "Six-Day War" only exacerbates the situation for Karami, who lives by making constant deals bankrolled by deposits in his Beirut bank.... malý formát, brožovaná, v angličtine, 464 strán

The Knave of Diamonds

Spisovatel: Dell Ethel M., LP 1974
Katalogové číslo: H540

1912. Dell, British writer, began writing at a young age. Most of her stories were stories of passion and love set in India and other British colonial possessions. "The Knave of Diamonds begins": There came a sudden blare of music from the great ballroom below, and the woman who stood alone at an open window on the first floor shrugged her shoulders and shivered a little. The night air blew in brisk and cold upon her uncovered neck, but except for that slight, involuntary shiver she scarcely seemed aware of it. The room behind her was brilliantly lighted but empty. Some tables had been set for cards, but the cards were untouched. Either the attractions of the ballroom had remained omnipotent, or no one had penetrated to this refuge of the bored - no one save this tall and stately woman robed in shimmering, iridescent green, who stood with her face to the night, breathing the chill air as one who had been on the verge of suffocation. It was evidently she who had flung up the window. Her gloved hands leaned upon the woodwork on each side of it. There was a certain constraint in her whole attitude, a tension that was subtly evident in every graceful line.... v angličtine, tvrdá väzba, bez obalu, väčší formát, 580 strán
