To the Romans, the greatest enemy the Republic ever faced was not the Goths or Huns, nor even Hannibal, but rather a ferocious and brilliant king on the distant Black Sea: Mithridates Eupator VI, the last king of Pontus, known to history as Mithridates the Great.

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.

The studio lot looks like `thirty acres of fairyland` the night that a mysterious woman stands and smiles at Monroe Stahr, the last of the great Hollywood princes. Enchanted by one another, they begin a passionate but hopeless love affair, starting with a fast-moving seduction as slick as a scene from one of Stahr`s pictures. The romance unfolds, frame by frame, watched by Cecilia, a thoroughly modern girl who has taken her lessons in sentiment and cynicism from all the movies she has seen. Her buoyant humour and satirical eye perfectly complement Fitzgerald`s panorama of Hollywood at its most lavish and bewitching. Формат: 12,5 см x 19,5 см.
