London: Everyman's Library CLASSICS, 2001 1857151682. Hardback. 9781857151682. Fine/Fine. DW is not price-clipped. Silk ribbon page marker is still in place. Dimension: 208 x 131 x 21. Weight in Grams: 468. 320 pages. No inscriptions or annotations. This copy was once in a school library as indicated by a small neat stamp (easily covered) on first end page, but it seems to me it was never taken out because it is otherwise pristine. This was a publication issued to UK schools as part of the 'Millennium Project. First assembled on paper in the fourteenth century, the eleven stories in The Mabinogion reach far back into the oral traditions of Welsh poetry. Closely linked to the Arthurian legends - King Arthur himself appears in one of the stories - they summon up a world of mystery and magic which is still evoked by the landscape so vividly described in them. .

London: Penguin, 2022 9780241970584. Softback. Fine. Excellent condition. No creasing to spine. No annotations or inscriptions etc. 438 pages. Winner of the Rathbones Folio Prize. From one of our greatest living writers comes a sweeping novel of unrequited love and exile, war and family. 'The Magician' tells the story of Thomas Mann, whose life was filled with great acclaim and contradiction. He would find himself on the wrong side of history in the First World War, cheerleading the German army, but have a clear..vision of the future in the second, anticipating the horrors of Nazism. He would have six children and keep his homosexuality hidden; he was a man forever connected to his family and yet bore witness to the ravages of suicide. He would write some of the greatest works of European literature, and win the Nobel Prize, but would never settle again in the country that inspired his creativity. Through one life, Colm Tóibín tells the breathtaking story of the twentieth…

New York: Random House, 1996 0679459553. Fine in Good unclipped dust jacket. whose only flaw is some creasing to top. First American edition as stated. Usual superior American binding. No inscriptions or annotations. The 380 pages are clean, intact and the spine remains undamaged. This book has clearly been well maintained and looked after thus far. "Those of us who have already discovered Stephen Fry know him as the brilliant British comedian behind TV series such as Jeeves & Wooster and Blackadder, and the author of two enormously funny novels, 'The Liar' and 'The Hippopotamus'. But his new film (in which he plays Oscar Wilde) and his new novel (this one) represent a somewhat alarming departure from his previous work: They're more serious. Though humour is still an essential ingredient of both, Fry's fans are finally getting to witness the emotional depth that this brilliant polymath usually keeps hidden. In 'Making History', Fry has bitten off a rather meaty chunk by tackling an at first…

The autobiography of a railway worker's son who, with dazzling speed, rose to be one of the most powerful, outspoken and charismatic figures in European theatre. This book chronicles how, against the odds, the author achieved his ambition. In his early 20s, he was running London's Arts Theatre, putting on provocative plays, including "Waiting for Godot". Three years later he staged his first opera, and directed Olivier and Ashcroft at Stratford-upon-Avon. Before he was 30 he had created the Royal Shakespeare Company. Few men take such risks or live so fully, and his new book illuminates his complex, intriguing personality. He describes the ups and downs of his controversial professional and private life and shines light on the many artists involved in his…

Andrew Marr paints a fascinating portrait of life in Britain during the first half of the twentieth century as the country recovered from the grand wreckage of the British Empire. Between the death of Queen Victoria and the end of the Second World War, the nation was shaken by war and peace. The two wars were the worst we had ever known and the episodes of peace among the most turbulent and surprising. As the political forum moved from Edwardian smoking rooms to an increasingly democratic Westminster, the people of Britain experimented with extreme ideas as they struggled to answer the question 'How should we live?' Socialism? Fascism? Feminism? Meanwhile, fads such as eugenics, vegetarianism and nudism were gripping the nation, while the popularity of…

London: Faber and Faber, 2001 0571205380. First edition. Complete numberline. Soft cover. VG. No inscriptions or annotations. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. In 1812, two mighty armies manoeuvred across the Spanish plains. They were finely balanced, under skilful leaders. Each struggled to gain an advantage. Wellington knew that if he defeated the French, he could turn the tide of the war. Good intelligence was paramount, but the French were using a code of unrivalled complexity - the 'Great Paris Cipher'. It was an unprecedented challenge, and Wellington looked to one man to break the code: Major George Scovell. Using a network of Spanish guerrillas, Scovell amassed a stack of coded French messages, and set to work decrypting them.As a man of low birth, Scovell - even with his genius for languages, and bravery on a dozen battlefields - struggled for advancement amongst Wellington's inner circle of wealthier, better connected officers. Mark Urban draws on a wealth…
