Описание: Following on from Danubia and the bestselling Germania, Lotharingia is the final instalment in Simon Winder`s hilarious and informative personal exploration of European history.
Pain, Parties, Work by Elizabeth Winder is a compelling look at a young Sylvia Plath and the life-changing month that would lay the groundwork for her seminal novel, The Bell Jar.
In May of 1953, a twenty-one-year-old Plath arrived in New York City, the guest editor of Mademoiselles annual College Issue. She lived at the Barbizon Hotel, attended the ballet, went to a Yankee game, and danced at the West Side Tennis Club. She was supposed to be having the time of her life.
But what would follow was, in Plaths words, twenty-six days of pain, parties, and work, that ultimately changed the course of her life.
Thoughtful and illuminating,featuring line drawings and black-and-white photographs,Pain, Parties, Work: Sylvia Plath in New York, Summer 1953 offers well-researched insights as it introduces us to Sylvia Plathbefore she became one of the greatest and most influential poets of the twentieth century.

Описание:
Following Germania and Danubia, the third installment in Simon Winder's personal history of Europe
In 843 AD, the three surviving grandsons of the great emperor Charlemagne met at Verdun. After years of bitter squabbles over who would inherit the family land, they finally decided to divide the territory and go their separate ways. In a moment of staggering significance, one grandson inherited the area we now know as France, another Germany and the third received the piece in between: Lotharingia. Lotharingia is a history of in-between Europe. It is the story of a place between places. In this beguiling, hilarious and compelling book, Simon Winder retraces the various powers that have tried to overtake the land that stretches from the mouth of the Rhine to the Alps and the might of the peoples who have lived there for centuries.
