The West of Ireland is a varied landscape with sandy beaches, towering cliffs, rolling fields, lonely bogland, ancient forests and mountains. Often stunningly beautiful and in places threatened, it's rough-hewn beauty and diversity captivates writers, artists, natives, and newcomers. Krieger presents the West of Ireland as never seen before. This visual journey is a distinctive collection of striking images from the Ring of Kerry to majestic Ben Bulben in Sligo....
Леди Ангел
Сьюзен Джонсон
Эксмо. Соблазны. Англия. Конец XIX века.

O the Clear Moment
Ed McClanahan
If “memoirabilia” were a word, it would perfectly describe O the Clear Moment. In this enormously appealing “implied autobiography,” Ed McClanahan has assembled a gathering of stories that are both quirky and cutting, all told in the inimitable voice of one of his generation’s best Southern chroniclers of American life.

From there, McClanahan is off and running, describing characters from his eventful life with affectionate and precise detail. Like “escapees from the cover of the Saturday Evening Post,” McClanahan and his stories come alive as American souvenirs, enchanting readers with his signature prose....
