Описание: Following the tracks, drove-roads and sea paths that form part of a vast ancient network of routes criss-crossing the British Isles and beyond, the author discovers a lost world - a landscape of the feet and the mind, of pilgrimage and ritual, of stories and ghosts; above all of the places and journeys which inspire and inhabit our imaginations.

In Underland, Robert Macfarlane takes us on a journey into the worlds beneath our feet.
From the ice-blue depths of Greenland's glaciers, to the underground networks by which trees communicate, from Bronze Age burial chambers to the rock art of remote Arctic sea-caves, this is a deep-time voyage into the planet's past and future.

Описание: This book is about the incredible rise of young Teddy Boy and labourer, Tommy Woodward from Treforest, Pontypridd, to becoming Sir Tom Jones global superstar. He is now known, by the younger generation, as a judge on The Voice but over a 50 odd year odyssey he has had amazing adventures, becoming friends with the likes of Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra and a plethora of showbiz legends. Author Colin MacFarlane was a journalist on Tom's local paper The Pontypridd Observer in the 1980s. He lived in Tom's village of Treforest and even drank with all of Tom's friends and family in the local Wood Road Non Political Club. Over a pint they all had brilliant stories to tell about Tom's early days. Some have never been published before. MacFarlane was lucky to have interviewed them when they were still around. Many have now gone. MacFarlane has charted the early days and followed Tom's career ever since. The people he interviewed were all the real cast members of the real Tom Jones Show. It's a star studded rock n' roll story about a Ponty boy who conquered the world with his voice. It is also a tale of sex, booze and rock n' roll with quite a few surprising twists along the way. A must read for all Tom Jones' fans and also for the younger generation who are fans of Tom on The Voice.

Описание: Eerie, unsettling and hauntingly beautiful - a new collaboration from the bestselling creators of Holloway'Ness goes beyond what we expect books to do. Beyond poetry, beyond the word, beyond the bomb -- it is an aftertime song. It is dark, ever so dark, nimble and lethal.
It is a triumphant libretto of mythic modernism for our poisoned age. Ness is something else, and feels like it always has been' Max Porter, Booker-longlisted author of Lanny and Grief is the Thing with FeathersSomewhere on a salt-and-shingle island, inside a ruined concrete structure known as The Green Chapel, a figure called The Armourer is leading a ritual with terrible intent. But something is coming to stop him.
Five more-than-human forms are traversing land, sea and time towards The Green Chapel, moving to the point where they will converge and become Ness. Ness has lichen skin and willow-bones. Ness is made of tidal drift, green moss and deep time.
Ness has hagstones for eyes and speaks only in birds. And Ness has come to take this island back. What happens when land comes to life? What would it take for land to need to come to life? Using word and image, Robert Macfarlane and Stanley Donwood have together made a minor modern myth.
Part-novella, part-prose-poem, part-mystery play, in Ness their skills combine to dazzling, troubling effect. Robert Macfarlane is the author of The Lost Words with Jackie Morris, The Old Ways and Underland, among other books. Stanley Donwood is an artist and the author of Slowly Downward and Household Worms.
His next books are There Will Be No Quiet and Bad Island.
