An Outcast of the Islands Conrad Joseph T8RUGRAM

Between the age of two and five, a little girl nicknamed ‘the Piggle’ – seriously disturbed by the birth of a younger sister – visited Dr Winnicott on sixteen occasions. A verbatim account of her visits is accompanied by illuminating excerpts from letters written to the analyst by the child’s parents and an invaluable commentary by Dr Winnicott. This allows the reader to experience in detail the growth of a relationship between child and therapist and the gradual unfolding of the child’s inner world • This classic piece of writing gives the reader the rare opportunity of being admitted to the intimacy of the consulting room and of studying the child and therapist at work. Of special value to professionals working with children, it will also fascinate anyone interested in how psychoanalysis works in practice

The twelve stories in this startling collection range over centuries and across the world • There are stories about those who are lonely, or estranged, or out of time. There are hauntings, both literal and metaphorical; and acts of cruelty and neglect but also of penance • Some stories concern themselves with the present, and the mundane circumstances in which people find themselves: a woman who feels stuck in her life imagines herself in different jobs - as a lighthouse keeper in Wales, or as a guard against polar bears in a research station in the Arctic • Some stories concern themselves with the past: a sixteenth-century alchemist and doctor, whose arrogance blinds him to people's dissatisfaction with their lives until he experiences it himself

Действие этого замечательного романа разворачивается в Оксфорде в 1660-х годах - времени и месте большого интеллектуального, религиозного, научного и политического брожения - вокруг молодой женщины Сары Бланди, которая обвиняется в убийстве Роберта Гроува, студента Нью-колледжа. Четыре свидетеля описывают события, связанные с его смертью: Марко да Кола, венецианский католик, намеревающийся присвоить себе заслугу в изобретении переливания крови; Джек Прескотт, сын предполагаемого предателя дела роялистов, полный решимости оправдать своего отца; Джон Уоллис, главный криптограф Кромвеля и Карла II, математик, теолог и мастер шпионажа; и Энтони Вуд, знаменитый оксфордский антиквар • Каждый из них рассказывает свою версию произошедшего, но только один раскрывает невероятную правду

Joseph Conrad was a Polish-British writer regarded as one of the greatest novelists to write in the English language. These works are unique in Conrads oeuvre in being openly autobiographical - but in scope and literary form, they differ widely. In The Mirror of the Sea Conrad explores his vast knowledge of the sea in an era when the sailing ship gave way, after thousands of years, to steam. A Personal Record is Conrads account of himself, his cultural background, and the central motives in his life as a seaman and a writer separated from the country where he was born

'The Boy-scouts mistook my signal, and have killed the postman. I've had very little practice in this sort of thing, you see' • The British short story tradition is probably the richest, most varied and historically extensive in the world. This new anthology celebrates the full diversity and energy of its writers, subjects and tones, from the story's origins with Defoe, Swift and Fielding, to the 'golden age' of the fin de siecle and Edwardian period, ending with the First World War. Including the most famous authors as well as some magnificent, little-known stories never republished since their first appearance in magazines and periodicals, these stories are by turns topical and playful, ghostly and theatrical, rumbustious and sublime • Edited with an introduction by Philip Hensher
