In the spirit of T.E. Lawrence, Wilfred Thesiger spent five years wandering the deserts of Arabia, producing Arabian Sands, 'a memorial to a vanished past, a tribute to a once magnificent people'. The Penguin Classics edition includes an introduction by Rory Stewart. Wilfred Thesiger, repulsed by what he saw as the softness and rigidity of Western life - 'the machines, the calling cards, the meticulously aligned streets' - spent years exploring in and around the vast, waterless desert that is the 'Empty Quarter' of Arabia. Travelling amongst the Bedu people, he experienced their everyday challenges of hunger and thirst, the trials of long marches beneath the relentless sun, the bitterly cold nights and the constant danger of death if it was discovered he was a Christian 'infidel'. He was the first European to visit most of the region, and just before he left the area the process that would change it forever had begun - the discovery of oil. This edition contains an introduction by Rory Stewart discussing the dangers of Thesiger's travels, his unconventional personality and his insights into the Bedouin way of life. Sir Wilfred Patrick Thesiger (1910-2003) was a British travel writer born in Addis Ababa in Abyssinia (now Ethiopia). Thesiger is best known for two travel books: Arabian Sands (1959), which recounts his travels in the Empty Quarter of Arabia between 1945 and 1950 and describes the vanishing way of life of the Bedouins, and The Marsh Arabs (1964), an account of the traditional peoples who lived in the marshlands of southern Iraq. If you enjoyed Arabian Sands, you might like T.E. Lawrence's Seven Pillars of Wisdom, also available in Penguin Modern Classics 'Thesiger is perhaps the last, and certainly one of the greatest, of the British travellers among the Arabs' Sunday Times 'Following worthily in the tradition of Burton, Lawrence, Philby and Thomas, it is, very likely, the book about Arabia to end all books about Arabia' Daily Telegraph

There are a million stories that take place within the arc of Derek Taylor's life. He lived a charmed life, which started on Saturday, 7 May 1932, in the Liverpool 17 suburb of Toxteth Park South, and saw him becoming a writer best known as the press agent for the Beatles. He became the band's friend and intimate across thirty years. Indeed, there are no shortage of claimants to the 'honorary' or 'fifth Beatle' status, but Derek's claim is more valid than most. His urbane charm, his easy intelligence, and the value of his contribution to the Beatles' collective story are beyond dispute. He put spin on stories decades before the term 'spin doctor' was concocted, with his droll, idiosyncratic way of speaking. It all began in 1964, when he co-wrote A Cellarful Of Noise, the best-selling autobiography of Brian Epstein. Soon after, he became Epstein's personal assistant and The Beatles' press agent. In 1965 he moved to Los Angeles, where he started his own public relations company, managing PR for bands like Paul Revere And The Raiders, The Byrds, and The Beach Boys. Brian Wilson called him a 'PR whiz' and 'a colourful, slick-talking Brit'. But he could also be a 'theatrical, slightly conspiratorial man' according to Ray Coleman. Derek was co-creator and producer of the historic Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. He's there in song when John rhymes 'Derek Taylor' with 'Norman Mailer' in 'Give Peace A Chance'. He returned to England to work for the Beatles again as the press officer for the newly created Apple Corps. This is the definitive biography of a man that was at the heart of the music world of the 1960s and 1970s. It is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the Beatles of course, but also to anyone yearning for a deep dive into the colourful world of a man who helped define a era.

From ancient megalodons to fearsome Great Whites, this book tells the complete, untold story of how sharks emerged as Earth’s ultimate survivors, by world-leading paleontologist John Long. “Will keep you on the edge of your seat from its first page to its last page.”—Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel Sharks have been fighting for their lives for 500 million years and today are under dire threat. They are the longest-surviving vertebrate on Earth, outlasting multiple mass extinction events that decimated life on the planet. But how did they thrive for so long? By developing superpower-like abilities that allowed them to ascend to the top of the oceanic food chain. John Long, who for decades has been on the cutting edge of shark research, weaves a thrilling story of sharks’ unparalleled reign. The Secret History of Sharks showcases the global search to discover sharks’ largely unknown evolution, led by Long and dozens of other extraordinary scientists. They embark on digs to all seven continents, investigating layers of rock and using cutting-edge technology to reveal never-before-found fossils and the clues to sharks’ singular story. As the tale unfolds, Long introduces an enormous range of astonishing organisms: a thirty-foot-long shark with a deadly saw blade of jagged teeth protruding from its lower jaws, a monster giant clams crusher, and bizarre sharks fossilized while in their mating ritual. The book also includes startling new facts about the mighty megalodon, with its sixty-six-foot-long body, massive jaws, and six-inch serrated teeth. With insights into the threats to sharks today, how they contribute to medical advances, and the lessons they can teach us about our own survival, The Secret History of Sharks is a riveting look at scientific discovery with ramifications far beyond the ocean.

F. Scott Fitzgerald RÜCKKEHR NACH BABYLON 10 Erzählungen (1931-1932) gelesen von Ingolf Kloss. 1.Fifi, das Hotel-Kind - 1931 2.Rückkehr nach Babylon - 1931 3.Ein noch unbeschriebenes Blatt - 1931 4.Seelischer Bankrott - 1931 5.Die Ausgrenzung - 1931 6.Einer von Sechs - 1932 7.Familie im Sturm - 1932 8.Was für ein hübsches Paar! - 1932 9.Verrückter Sonntag - 1932 10.Ein Interner - 1932 Die Kurzgeschichte "Rückkehr nach Babylon" erschien zunächst am 21. Februar 1931 in der Saturday Evening Post und wurde dann Teil des Erzählungsbandes Taps at Reveille, 1935. Als wohl beste und eine der bekanntesten von über 160 Kurzgeschichten Fitzgeralds, gehört sie nicht in die erste Hälfte der 1920er Jahre, also in das 'Jazz Age', dem der Autor den Namen gab, sondern beleuchtet, im Dezember 1930 entstanden, einen Wendepunkt sowohl in der US-amerikanischen Geschichte als auch in Fitzgeralds Schaffen und Privatleben. Der Wirtschaftsboom und der verschwenderische Lebensstil der 1920er Jahre waren beendet; in der allgemeinen Krise lag eine Besinnung auf neue wirtschaftliche und moralische Werte nahe. Auch Fitzgerald befand sich in einer tiefen persönlichen Krise: Seine Ehe war zerrüttet, seine Frau Zelda hatte einen Nervenzusammenbruch erlitten. 1935 sollte sein eigener folgen, und die durch chronischen Geldmangel erzwungene Massenproduktion von Kurzgeschichten hatte seine schöpferische Substanz angegriffen. Nicht zufällig steht deshalb "Rückkehr nach Babylon" (Originaltitel: Babylon Revisited ) zeitlich und thematisch in der Mitte zwischen den großen Romanen "Der große Gatsby", 1925, und "Zärtlich ist die Nacht", 1934. Neu übersetzt aus dem Amerikanischen von Peter Eckhart Reichel nach den Veröffentlichungen der rechtefreien Originaltexte des Project Gutenberg of Australia. Diese zehn Erzählungen sind auch als E-Book unter dem gleichen Namen in allen guten Downloadshops des Buchhandels erhältlich. Titelgestaltung unter Verwendung eines Vanity Fair-Covers: Featuring a Man Fastening von Eduardo Garcia Benito. Dezemberausgabe 1930. Coverschrift gesetzt aus der Dusty Rose NF. Schlussmusik: April In Paris (1932 by Vernon Duke & Yip Harburg), gesungen von Sarah Vaughan Clifford Brown, Sarah Vaughan ℗ 1955 UMG Recordings, Inc. Released on: 1954-12-01. Über den Sprecher: Ingolf Kloss, geb. 1973, kam 1994 als Co-Moderator zu Radio Leipzig, später Moderator und Produzent bei Radio Energy; seit 2000 ist er fest angestellter Moderator, Produzent und Musikredakteur bei Radio SAW, dort auch für alle Künstler-Interviews verantwortlich (u. a. Paul McCartney, Depeche Mode, Lenny Kravitz, Herbert Grönemeyer). Er lebt in Leipzig und Magdeburg. Nach seinen umfangreichen Romanlesungen "Der große Gatsby" und "Zärtlich ist die Nacht" von F. Scott Fitzgerald folgten etliche weitere Literaturinterpretationen unterschiedlicher Werke von diversen Autoren.

From USA Today and Wall St. Journal bestselling author Emma Scott comes an all-new emotional, angsty coming-of-age love story perfect for fans of Jennifer Hartmann and Laura Nowlin. At ten years old, they promised each other forever. But his letters never came. And her heart never healed.

He never stopped thinking of Emery Wallace, the kind girl who once saw him when no one else did. Emery looks perfect on the outside: wealthy, popular, untouchable. But behind the flawless mask is a girl unraveling under her father's ruthless expectations and her mother's drowning grief.

Angus Robertson Sinclair, one of the worst killers the UK has ever seen, was convicted of four murders. His first took place in his home city of Glasgow in 1961, when he raped and murdered his seven-year-old neighbour Catherine Reehill when he was just sixteen. But after spending a mere six years in prison, he was released in his early twenties to kill again. Teenagers Helen Scott and Christine Eadie were last seen at the World's End pub on Edinburgh's Royal Mile in October 1977. The next morning both were found murdered; not together, but a few miles apart on the East Lothian coast. They had both been raped before they were killed. The largest investigation in Scottish police history didn't find their killer. Several years later, in 1982, Sinclair was jailed for life after he was charged with and admitted eleven charges of rape and indecent assault. However, twenty years after this, as Sinclair was beginning to be hopeful about being released on parole, a cold case review showed that Sinclair's DNA had been found on the body of 17-year-old Mary Gallagher, a 1978 Glasgow murder that had been previously unsolved. These discoveries lead detectives to examine the link between Sinclair and several other unsolved cases. Scientific advances put Sinclair and his brother-in law Gordon Hamilton who died in 1996 firmly in the frame for the World's End pub murders of Helen Scott and Christine Eadie. In 2007 Sinclair stood trial for these murders, but a lack of evidence saw the case collapse. But following the change in Scotland's double jeopardy law, Sinclair again faced trial for the World's End murders in 2014, and this time was found guilty. The judge said the words 'evil' and 'monster' were not enough to describe Sinclair, as he sentenced him to a minimum of 37 years in prison for the murders of the two teenagers. This is the longest sentence issued to anyone in a Scottish court, and ensured that Sinclair would die in jail. But there were more victims. Many more. Sinclair was convicted of four murders, but we believe he murdered at least twelve people, maybe fourteen. And in this book, we tell their stories.

Olivia Hart always dreamed of following in her father's footsteps to become the CEO of Hartstring Records-the massive record label that's been in her family for generations. Before he died, she vowed she'd do whatever it took to make that dream a reality, regardless of the personal cost. Now, at thirty-seven, she's kept her promise. Only, instead of bringing her joy, she finds herself divorced and resenting her position at the top, forced to prioritize her career over her daughter, Charlie. The days are long and the nights are lonely. She finds herself longing for a fraction of the happiness her ex has found after their divorce. When Olivia gets an unexpected call from her brother that their uncle's health is failing, she seizes the opportunity to step away from the career that has become more of a chore and drops everything to head back to Tennessee and the charming little town she left behind. It doesn't take long for Olivia to realize that not everything is the same as it was before she left. Especially not her brother's best friend. Duke Bennett was carefree and vibrant the last time she saw him, but now his dark eyes are haunted by something that wasn't there before. He's brash, stubborn, and adamantly against her being back in his life for any reason. Unfortunately, his daughter and Olivia's have become inseparable, and there's no avoiding each other. What starts as after-school playdates and Saturday morning soccer games reluctantly becomes more. Before she knows it, her brother's broody best friend becomes the one thing that makes her feel free for the first time in years, giving her hope for something she thought she'd never have. As Olivia's time in Pinecrest comes to a close, she is faced with a decision that could wreck her heart either way. Does she walk away from Pinecrest and return to the dream she thought she always wanted, or will she realize that sometimes it's the legacy you choose that matters the most?

How could you say no?" —Carmen Maria Machado From Lambda Award-winning poet Zefyr Lisowski, a sharply personal and expansive memoir-in-essays dedicated to the strange and absurd beauty of horror films, exploring the complications of gender, the insidiousness of class ascension, and the latent violence hidden in our own uncanny reflections. This is how it worked: first I loved them, and then I loved myself. At twenty-seven, poet Zefyr Lisowski found herself in the place she feared most: a locked psych ward. While inside, she turned to horror movies—her deepest, most constant comfort. Rather than disturb, scary movies have always provided solace and connection for Lisowski, as they do many others—offering a vision of a world filled equally with beauty and pain, and a reason to reach out to others and hold them tight. After all, as Lisowski argues, what terrifies us most about these movies is our own uncanny reflection—and at the root of that fear, a desperate desire to love and be loved. In these wide-ranging essays, Lisowski weaves theory and memoir into nuanced critiques of films such as The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Saint Maud. From fears about sickness and disability, to trans narratives and the predator/victim complex, to the struggle to live in a world that wants you dead, she explores horror’s reciprocal impact on our culture and—by extension—our lives. Through it all, Lisowski lays bare her own complex biography—spanning from a trans childhood in the South to the sweaty dancefloors of Brooklyn—and the family, friends, and lovers that have bloomed with her into the present. Deeply felt, blood-spattered, and brimming with care and wonder, Uncanny Valley Girls thrusts this seasoned poet to centerstage.
