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

Distant Music

Spisovatel: Bingham Charlotte, Bantam Books 2002
Katalogové číslo: G3667

Life was tough in England after the Second World War -- at least it was for those who were not part of some particular elite, the fabulously wealthy or the tiny coterie of British film and theatre stars. Little wonder then that Elsie Lancaster, the granddaughter of a theatrical landlady, thinks of nothing else but trying to become one of that shining constellation. Surprising therefore, given their very different origins, that Oliver Plunkett shares the same ambition, for his is the pampered background of old money. Groomed from an early age by his father's theatre-mad butler, there is no other world to which he aspires. No such ambition infuses his best friend, the kooky Coco Hampton. Theatre for her is all about costume, costume, costume. That they all become involved with Portly Cosgrove -- sometime manager, and soon-to-be-agent -- is part of the inevitable flow of theatrical life, as is the fact that they become emotionally entangled with each other. Come success or failure, the music they dance to is the distant music of fame and fortune, a tune which is often dim and, at other times, tantalisingly clear -- only to fade once more.... malý formát,brožovaná,v angličtine,575 strán
