The Panic of ´89

Spisovatel: Erdman Paul, Sphere Books 1986
Katalogové číslo: H4224

Erdman's cool, incisive style heightens the effects in his new novel, topping The Crash of '79 and his other bestsellers. The hero, Paul Mayer, resembles the author; both are eminent economists and natives of Sweden now living in the U.S. As 1989 looms, Mayer contemplates a grim future, with troubles amassing since the second term of America's "luckiest" President, blameless and unworried during his last days in office. The stock market drops out of sight. Banks are falling like dominoes. Foreign countries default wholesale on huge loans to the U.S. These are among the possibilities Erdman graphically spells out, sending shock waves through the reader. The cast of characters is also strikingly real. International conspirators include Arabs and Venezuelans, a Swiss banker, a motley gang with designs on each other and on the main objective, the Bank of America. As the narrative accelerates, so do the crises that Mayer and a few allies commit themselves to averting. If they succeed, the valiant team will belong in the company of Atlas, Hercules and other doers of the impossible... v angličtine, malý formát, brožovaná, 310 strán

Spisovatel: Williams Elvet, Coronet books 1978
Katalogové číslo: O8904

Private Elvet Williams was captured in Crete in 1941. He was destined for imprisonment in the arbeitskommandos - work camps - of Europe. Isolated in hostile country, these camps worked their 'other ranks' prisoners long and exhausting hours. There was no energy left for forming Escape Committees, manufacturing disguises, false papers or money. And escaping involved not only breaking out of camp, but surviving the killing run for home across an enemy-occupied continent. But Private Williams was determined to escape - and to survive. ARBEITSKOMMANDO is the other side of the prisoner of war story; how ordinary men could still fight and overcome impossible odds to be free.... v angličtine, brožovaná, menší formát, 252 strán
