Описание: Fiction. Surrealist writer and painter Leonora Carrington (1917-2011) was a master of the macabre, of gorgeous tableaus, biting satire, roguish comedy, and brilliant, effortless flights of the imagination. Nowhere are these qualities more ingeniously brought together than in the works of short fiction she wrote throughout her life.

Published to coincide with the centennial of her birth, THE COMPLETE STORIES OF LEONORA CARRINGTON collects for the first time all of her stories, including several never before seen in print. With a startling range of styles, subjects, and even languages (several of the stories are translated from French or Spanish), THE COMPLETE STORIES captures the genius and irrepressible spirit of an amazing artist's life.

Описание:

Jean Baptiste Lamarck did not receive the respect, prestige or recognition for his contributions to science during his life long struggle with poverty, yet was still a brilliant mind in pursuit of the discovery of Evolution.

In the year 1809, the year that Darwin was born, Lamarck published his three-volume work, Phylosophie Zoologique, in which was explained his theory of the evolution of life on this planet from the simplest, single-celled infusoria, to Man. He discussed not only gradual physical evolution, over countless millennia, but the evolution of our minds and our emotions too.

Too far ahead of his time, Lamarck's ideas were ridiculed or forgotten.

Now we understand - or think we do Time to take another look - we still have a lot to learn.

Описание: When she is offered the opportunity to exhibit her artwork in a prestigious gallery in London, Natalie Sanders can't believe her luck. As she prepares for her trip, she is unaware that her movements are being followed by a mysterious man, intent on finding Natalie's connection to an ancient rosary with a mystical past. When events around her start to spin out of control, with lives in mortal danger, Natalie is thrown on an emotional roller coaster. It is only when she finally arrives in London, and she encounters Melody Bennet, a woman whose life seemingly parallels her own, that Natalie begins to understand a greater plan is unfolding. As danger escalates, Natalie and Melody must come together to fight unknown forces unraveling against them, and fulfill their tasks as keepers of the sacred prophecy."The Rosaries is even more riveting than The Book of Obeah - A masterful work of art."

Описание:

It was Dr. Edward Bach's life-long desire to develop a system of healing, so simple, so safe, that it could be used by anyone. His dream was realised. His 'Flower Remedies' are now known and available the world over.

Although simple, this does not mean that they are not profound.

It is this depth and profoundness which is now examined. You may be amazed by what you read. You may ask yourself "Why did I not think of that before?". Whatever your reaction, you will be certain to finish this book with a new sense of wonder and gratitude for the gift we have been given.

Описание:

Dora Carrington was considered an outsider to Bloomsbury, but she lived right at its heart. Known only by her surname, she was the star of her year at the Slade School of Fine Art, but never achieved the fame her early career promised. For over a decade she was the companion of homosexual writer Lytton Strachey, and killed herself, stricken without him, when he died in 1932. She was also a prolific and exuberant correspondent. Carrington was not consciously a pioneer or a feminist, but in her determination to live life according to her own nature--especially in relation to her work, her passionate friendships and her fluid attitude to sex, gender and sexuality--she fought battles that remain familiar and urgent today. She was friends with the greatest minds of the day and her correspondence stars a roster of fascinating characters--Virginia Woolf, Vanessa Bell, Rosamund Lehmann, Maynard Keynes to name but a few. Carrington's Letters introduces the maverick artist and compelling personality to a new generation for the first time with fresh correspondence never before published. Unmediated, passionate, startlingly honest and very playful, reading Carrington's letters is like having her whisper in your ear and embrace you gleefully.
