In 1954, in the cookhouse of a logging and sawmill settlement in northern New Hampshire, a twelve-year-old boy mistakes the local constable`s girlfriend for a bear. Both the twelve-year-old and his father become fugitives, pursued by the constable. Their lone protector is a fiercely libertarian logger, once a river driver, who befriends them. In a story spanning five decades, Last Night in Twisted River - John Irving`s twelfth novel - depicts the recent half-century in the United States as a world `where lethal hatreds were generally permitted to run their course.` From the novel`s taut opening sentence to its elegiac final chapter, what distinguishes Last Night in Twisted River is the author`s unmistakable voice, the inimitable voice of...

There is big trouble at the Unseen University, Ankh-Morpork`s lone institute of higher learning. And the one person who can remedy the situation is ... Rincewind, not only most inept magic-doer the UU ever produced but currently stranded on the unfinished down-under continent of Fourecks.

Meanwhile, the wizard in question has big troubles of his own, thanks to a pushy mystical kangaroo trickster named Scrappy and a mob of Fourecksians determined to make Rincewind a fabled folk hero (after they hang him, of course). But no worries, things could turn out for the best-if he...

Arthur Ransome was, from 1930 to the early 1960s, what Rowling is today: author of a series of children`s books which shaped the imagination of a generation. Rooted in the heyday of the British Empire, "Swallows and Amazons" and its sequels described a nostalgic Utopia. Yet before that, Arthur Ransome, famous for different reasons. Between 1917 and 1924, as Russian correspondent for the "Daily News" and "Manchester Guardian", he was an uncritical apologist for the Bolshevik regime, with unique access to the revolutionary leaders. As the Red Army engaged with an Allied invasion of Russia, Ransome was conducting a love affair with Evgenia Shelepina, private secretary to Leon Trotsky, then Soviet Commissar for War.
