Описание: The first novel in a groundbreaking international thriller trilogy about a deadly game that blurs the line between reality and fiction.Follow the rules and everybody gets hurt... One Sunday morning after a long night of partying, Henrik "HP" Pettersson, a slacker with a lot of ego and very little impulse control, finds a cell phone of an unfamiliar make on a commuter train. Through insisting and slightly uncanny messages that refer to him by name, the phone invites him to play a game. HP accepts without hesitation. The rules are that HP must complete tasks that range from childish pranks to criminal acts, as allocated by the mysterious Game Master. HP is the perfect contender--alienated from society, devoid of morals, and desperate for fame. His completion of the assignments are filmed and uploaded onto a protected server where viewers rate the Players' performances. The Game starts out innocently enough and then becomes increasingly risky, threatening the safety of someone close to HP. He is determined to become a superstar, but when the dark and tragic secrets of his family's past are at stake, HP must make a choice. Will he suffer the humiliation of defeat, or will the need to win push him to the limit--no matter the cost? First in a fast-paced and riveting trilogy, Game will leave you guessing. Follow the rules, and everybody gets hurt...

Описание: Mirror Gazing is a book about reading and looking, about what people seek when they read, and about what stares back at them from the printed page. It is an archival project, based on a wealth of material collected daily by celebrated critic Warren F. Motte over thirty-five years and squirreled away for some eventual winter. It is also a love letter, a confession, a tale of deep obsession, and a cry for help addressed to anyone who takes literature seriously. "At heart, this is not just a book about mirror scenes, interesting as they are-- and they are interesting. It's also a look at passion, at collection, at personal taxonomies and the game of creating order from disorder (do we ever win that game?). It's about how we read and why we read. And it's about the Delphic maxim, "Know thyself." Motte explores how characters look for (or suddenly catch) themselves in mirrors, as well as how (or whether) the act of writing is a reflection, distorted or true, of writers themselves."-- Julie Larios, Numero Cinq "I believe (and I'm choosing my words carefully) that this is the most extraordinary book about reading I have ever read" - Jacques Jouet "Wonderfully luminous, entertaining, thought-provoking, and wide-ranging...an essential book" - Gerald Prince "Motte has collected around ten thousand mirror scenes from roughly 1,500 books. This, in and of itself, is noteworthy, but the book is not simply a reprinting of quotes from various books. It is a deeply considered analysis of what it actually means to look into a mirror. For the serious reader, this book will serve as a trip through your reading past. I was reminded--somewhat nostalgically--of much of the literature that has defined the early part of my adult life. From Nabokov to Salinger to Rilke to Calvino, the book makes its way into just about every corner of American and European literature." - Nancy Smith, YourImpossibleVoice
