Описание:
Fiction. Drama. Art. The "European anti-novel" in all its unrepentant glory is here in THE COMBINATIONS, following in the tradition of Sterne, Rabelais, Cervantes, Joyce, Perec. Shortlisted for the 2016 Not the Booker prize.
In 8 octaves, 64 chapters and 888 pages, Louis Armand's THE COMBINATIONS is an unprecedented "work of attempted fiction" that combines the beauty & intellectual exertion that is chess with the panorama of futility & chaos that is Prague (a.k.a. "Golem City"), across the 20th-century and before/after. Golem City, the ship of fools boarded by the famed D's (e.g. John) and K's (e.g. Edward) of the 16th/17th centuries (who attempted and failed to turn lead into gold), and the infamous H's (e.g. Adolf, e.g. Reinhard) of the 20th (who attempted and succeeded in turning flesh into soap). Armand's prose weaves together the City's thousand-and- one fascinating tales with a deeply personal account of one lost soul set adrift amid the early-90s' awakening from the nightmare that was the previous half-century of communist Mitteleuropa. THE COMBINATIONS is a text whose 1) erudition dazzles, 2) structure humbles, 3) monotony never bores, 4) humour disarms, 5) relentlessness overwhelms, 6) storytelling captivates, 7) poignancy remains poignant, and 8) style simply never exhausts itself. Your move, Reader.

Описание: A great Napoleonic soldier's life-two volumes complete in one special edition Armand Caulaincourt was a principal figure of the Napoleonic epoch. Born in 1773, he was serving in the army of France at the age of 15. By 1801, he had been swept up by the tide of French revolution and politics, had risen in rank, been reduced to common soldier, risen again to colonel and twice suffered wounds in his thirteen campaigns. Becoming an aide to Napoleon, Caulaincourt's fortunes prospered during the imperial period and led to his becoming Duke of Vicenza in 1808. He strongly advised Napoleon not to invade Russia, but was ignored. He served during the Russian Campaign as Grand Ecuyer to the emperor being present at Borodino and upon the retreat from Moscow until Napoleon left the doomed army. Caulaincourt accompanied Napoleon on his return to France, becoming Grand Marshal of the Palace following the death of Duroc. The remainder of his career was spent engaged in diplomacy for which he had a considerable talent, particularly impressing Tsar Alexander I who subsequently used his influence to save Caulaincourt from arrest and execution following the Hundred Days. This good value Leonaur edition of the life of this outstanding man, contains the complete text of both volumes as they were originally published. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.
