G?bor Szappanos Crime and Punishment in Heaven Modern Hungarian Short Stories Translated from the Hungarian by Peter Ortutay【電子書籍】[ Gabor Szappanos ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The last cheer-leader with her long thighs in silken stockings, in red miniskirt and white boots, burst like a balloon, too. There were exactly twelve of them. And they all looked so realistic… and so desirable, too. St. Peter made a deep sigh at experiencing the new failure, frowned with his white brows resentfully and accusingly and looked with his pungent and blue eyes at the designer, at the great heavenly magician Albert Einstein. Since the Second Advent of Christ time has been passing by with cheerless monotony and they had to enjoy themselves somehow in the heavenly Jerusalem. It was not particularly comforting either if the Redeemer himself appeared on the scene because in such cases He tenderly but categorically hauled Peter over the coals asking him why he was juggling there all the time, he’d better alit on the Earth that was made climatically and demographically livable, a new earthly Paradise actually, and do some useful work there. He added that Peter would have it that if he started working, for instance cultivated a beautiful little garden, cut roses, or returned to his original job, which was fishing, he would not need the sight of those cheer-leaders made of the wandering atoms of very sparse ether, of light- and quantum-particles and existing just for a couple of seconds.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book analyses the Youth Justice Conferencing Program in New South Wales, Australia. Exploring this form of diversionary justice from the perspectives of functional linguistics and performance studies, the authors combine close textual analysis with ethnographic research methodologies. They examine how participants use the discourse semantic resources available to them to achieve such outcomes as reparation for the victim, reintegration of the offender into the community, and reconciliation between the various parties. This uniquely-researched work is sure to be of interest to students and scholars of applied linguistics, sociolinguistics and discourse analysis.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Love in a Time of Politics A Memoir of Facing Loss and Finding Hope【電子書籍】[ Katherine Zappone ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>'Wise, moving, deeply honest.' MARY McALEESE</strong></p> <p><strong>'Tender, funny, humane - a memoir of the courage</strong> <strong>it takes to lead change.' EMILIE PINE</strong></p> <p><strong>'This is a love story that changed our</strong> <strong>country forever.' ALI HEWSON</strong></p> <p>During her second year as an Irish government minister, Katherine Zappone's world was upended when her beloved wife, Ann Louise Gilligan, suffered a catastrophic brain haemorrhage. Their partnership had guided landmark Irish battles for marriage equality and reform of Ireland's constitutional ban on abortion. But their greatest challenge now lay before them.</p> <p>As Ann Louise fought for survival, Katherine was embroiled in the cut and thrust of modern Irish politics - including seeking justice for the forgotten children of Tuam, putting her at the heart of Ireland's reckoning with its past. All the while, she faced the quiet devastation of impending loss and, later, the grief that followed. Then, in 2021, came political controversy that would shake her to the core.</p> <p><em>Love in a Time of Politics</em> is a story of enduring love between two trailblazing women, as well as a rare insider's account of political life in Ireland during a time of seismic social change. With honesty, warmth and wisdom, it reveals how compassion can shape policy, and how conviction can sustain even the most broken heart.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Wonder Boy Tony Hsieh, Zappos and the Myth of Happiness in Silicon Valley【電子書籍】[ Angel Au-Yeung ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em><strong>Wonder Boy</strong></em> <strong>is a riveting investigation into the turbulent life of Zappos visionary Tony Hsieh, whose radical business strategies revolutionized both the tech world and corporate culture, based on rigorous research and reporting by two seasoned journalists.</strong></p> <p>Tony Hsieh's first successful venture was in middle school, selling personalized buttons. At Harvard, he made a profit compiling and selling study guides. In 1998, Hsieh sold his first company to Microsoft for $265 million. About a decade later, he sold online shoe empire Zappos to Amazon for $1.2 billion.</p> <p>The secret to his success? Making his employees happy.</p> <p>At its peak, Zappos's employee-friendly culture was so famous across the tech industry that it became one of the hardest companies to get hired at, and CEOs from other companies regularly toured the headquarters. But Hsieh's vision for change didn't stop with corporate culture: Hsieh went on to move Zappos headquarters to Las Vegas and personally funded a nine-figure campaign to revitalize the city's historic downtown area. There, he could be found living in an Airstream and chatting up the locals. But Hsieh's forays into community-revival projects spun out of control as his issues with mental health and addiction ramped up, creating the opportunity for more enablers than friends to stand in his mercurial good graces.</p> <p>Drawing on hundreds of interviews with a wide range of people whose lives Hsieh touched, journalists Angel Au-Yeung and David Jeans craft a rich portrait of a man who was plagued by the pressure to succeed but who never lost his generous spirit.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>“<em>The General Zapped an Angel</em> was written for fun, and offers me a chance to smile at the absurdity of human existence. Therefore, these stories of fantasy and science fiction are among the most serious writing I have done.” ーHoward Fast</strong></p> <p>Nearly forty years after the publication of his first story, “The Wrath of Purple,” in the science fiction magazine <em>Amazing Stories</em>, Howard Fast returned to the genre with a set of nine supremely entertaining tales. In this collection, a Vietnam general shoots down what appears to be an angel, a man sells his soul to the devil for a copy of the next day’s <em>Wall Street Journal</em>, and a group of alien beings bestow a mouse with human thought and emotion. Fast, one of the bestselling authors of the twentieth century, skewers war hawks, oil speculators, and profit-at-all-costs capitalism, issues that are still relevant today.</p> <p>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Howard Fast including rare photos from the author’s estate.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Happy Forever My Musical Adventures With The Turtles, Frank Zappa, T. Rex, Flo & Eddie, And More【電子書籍】[ Mark Volman ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>‘Mark is one of the most indomitable yet gentle spirits I’ve ever met. He will always be one of my favorite artists I’ve ever worked with. And someday when I grow up, I want to be just like him.’</em> ? <strong>Alice Cooper</strong></p> <p><em>‘This book is a puzzle. The outside frame pieces are about me, but the picture wouldn’t be complete without the perspectives of all the people telling you about me.’</em> ? <strong>Mark Volman</strong></p> <p>Mark Volman has led a storied life, and many of those stories are contained in <em>Happy Forever</em>. A true son of Southern California, he has gone from topping the charts with The Turtles (‘Happy Together’) to underground cred with Frank Zappa and beyond. As Flo & Eddie, Mark and his longtime singing partner Howard Kaylan were the not-so-secret ingredient on many other artist’s records, taking Bruce Springsteen into the Top 10 for the very first time and helping T. Rex dominate the British charts. Then came The Ramones, U2, Blondie, Duran Duran, and so many more; the list of credits is long and varied.</p> <p><em>Happy Forever</em> covers all of that, along with subsequent forays into animation, a stint as a radio personality in Los Angeles and New York, and a midlife return to academia, which led Mark to create and run innovative college programs in LA and Nashville. But this is not the world according to Mark Volman, and it is not your average musical autobiography. Alongside his own comments, this uniquely insightful book contains contributions from more than one hundred of Mark’s peers, friends, and lovers who share their thoughts on the man himself and on topics that span the social and cultural landscape of past half-century.</p> <p><em>Happy Forever</em>’s cast list reads like a who’s who of popular music, featuring members of The Doors, The Monkees, The Byrds, The E Street Band, and many more; producers Tony Visconti, Bob Ezrin, and Hal Willner; voice actors from <em>The Simpsons</em> and the Firesign Theatre; and key figures from the worlds of radio, animation, and academia. The book also includes previously unseen photographs and forewords by Alice Cooper and Chris Hillman.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>A pair of imaginative science fiction story collections from the #1 <em>New York Times</em>?bestselling author of <em>Spartacus, Freedom Road</em>, and the Immigrants saga.</strong></p> <p>Over his long and illustrious career, <em>New York Times</em>?bestselling author and prolific novelist Howard Fast proved himself a master of any literary genre, from historical fiction in <em>Spartacus</em> to family generational drama in his bestselling Immigrants saga. Although his output in fantasy and science fiction is relatively modest, these two short story collections, reminiscent of classic <em>Twilight Zone</em> episodes, demonstrate that Fast's imagination knew no boundaries.</p> <p><em>The General Zapped an Angel</em>: Nearly forty years after the publication of his first story, "Wrath of Purple," in the science fiction magazine <em>Amazing Stories</em>, Fast returned to the genre with a set of nine supremely entertaining tales. In this collection, a Vietnam general shoots down what appears to be an angel, a man sells his soul to the devil for a copy of the next day's <em>Wall Street Journal</em>, and a group of alien beings bestow a mouse with human thought and emotion.</p> <p>"These stories amply display Fast's considerable gifts as a writerーhis clear, concise, often elegant prose, his sense of humor, his gift of sympathetic imagination, and sheer talent as a storyteller." ー <em>Tangent</em></p> <p><em>A Touch of Infinity</em>: This follow-up to <em>The General Zapped an Angel</em> offers thirteen brisk and engrossing science fiction stories. In "The Hoop," a scientist builds a portal to an unknown destination, which the mayor of New York City hijacks to use as a garbage dump until the location's surprisingーand hilariousーrevelation. And in "The Egg," set three thousand years in the future, a research team discovers an egg, something they have never seen before, cryogenically frozen in a nuclear bunker.</p> <p>"Fast, a master of economy . . . spins his stories quickly and most effectively." ーAssociated Press</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>The city of Eora (once known as Sydney) where the last human population of Earth struggle to survive, is on the brink of civil war. In a city divided by the harbour, the people of the north shore have the best of the remaining resources and those who live south of the harbour have what is left. For the last 300 years there has been no contact with anyone from outside the city walls. But now there are rumors that strangers have arrived. Where are they from and what do they want? And why are they interested in musicians?<br /> Somebody has to find out and that someone is guitar playing Steve Thales, a south of the harbour musician.

He is enslaved by his captors and forced to join a primitive rock band with a beautiful and brilliant but murderous lead singer. Together they travel to different planet Earths across the dimensions of the multiverse to perform, where they face hostile locals, ruthless business entrepreneurs, misanthropic multiverse media moguls and battles with Vikings. Will he ever be able to escape his ruthless captors and find out why the rich and powerful are so interested in his home and save himself, his fellow band members and the people of Eora from total annihilation?</p> <p>This novel forms part of the trilogy 'The Man of Three Shouts'.

Oststolz Appell eines Nachwendekinds | Der dunkle Parabelritter, Autor des SPIEGEL-Bestsellers "Du kannst sie nicht alle t?ten"【電子書籍】[ Alexander Prinz ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

<p><strong>Die Wende hat ihre eigenen Kinder ? doch wer erz?hlt ihre Geschichte?</strong></p> <p>YouTube-Star und SPIEGEL-Bestsellerautor Alexander Prinz ("Du kannst sie nicht alle t?ten"), selbst aufgewachsen nach der Wiedervereinigung im l?ndlichen Sachsen-Anhalt, gibt seiner Generation nun eine kraftvolle Stimme. In seinem neuen Buch "Oststolz" bricht er mit Klischees und liefert eine l?ngst ?berf?llige Perspektive auf ein noch immer gespaltenes Land.</p> <p>Schonungslos ehrlich erz?hlt Prinz von seiner Kindheit und Jugend: Als er um die Jahrtausendwende in einem ostdeutschen 800-Seelen-Dorf gro? wurde, lebte ein Drittel der Kinder an seiner Schule unter der Armutsgrenze. Beim Klettern durch die vergessenen Orte eines zerfallenen Landes fand er Abenteuer von unerwarteter Magie. Mit so etwas Exotischem wie Markenklamotten oder schnellen Autos kam er erst viel sp?ter in Ber?hrung, w?hrend eines Urlaubs im sogenannten Westen. Denn eine "unsichtbare Mauer" aus niedrigeren L?hnen und Renten, mangelnder Anerkennung und westdeutscher Hegemonie pr?gt den Alltag vieler Ostdeutscher bis heute.</p> <p>Dieses autobiografisch inspirierte Buch ist weit mehr als ein pers?nliches Memoir ? "Oststolz" ist eine Gesellschaftsanalyse und ein leidenschaftliches Pl?doyer f?r ein neues Selbstverst?ndnis. Prinz ruft seine Nachwendegeneration auf: Seid auf eure Ost-Biografie stolz, bleibt hier und macht was draus, bevor es die Falschen tun.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Zappa The Hard Way【電子書籍】[ Andrew Greenaway ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>'Zappa The Hard Way' is the story of Frank Zappa's last ever world tour that ended in mutiny. In 1988 Frank Zappa toured with a twelve-piece band that had rehearsed for months, learned a repertoire of over 100 songs and played an entirely different set each night. It is why, in Zappa's own words, it was "e;the best band you never heard in your life"e; - a reference to East Coast American audiences who never got the chance to see this particular touring ensemble. Zappa appointed bass player Scott Thunes to rehearse the group in his absence. In carrying out this role, Thunes was apparently abrasive, blunt and rude to the other members and two factions quickly developed: Thunes and stunt guitarist Mike Keneally on the one side; the remaining nine band members on the other. The atmosphere deteriorated as the tour progressed through America and on to Europe. Before leaving Europe, Zappa told the band that there were ten more weeks of concerts booked in the USA and asked them: "e;If Scott's in the band, will you do the tour?"e; With the exception of Keneally, they all said "e;no"e;. Rather than replace Thunes, Zappa cancelled almost three months of concerts and never toured again - claiming to have lost $400,000 in the process. 'Zappa The Hard Way' documents that tour. If you think touring can be fun, think again! Yes there were groupies and the usual paraphernalia associated with rock 'n' roll, but there was also bitterness and skulduggery on a scale that no one could imagine. Author Andrew Greenaway has interviewed the surviving band members and others associated with the tour to unravel the goings on behind the scenes that drove Zappa to call a halt to proceedings, despite the huge personal financial losses. This paperback edition includes a foreword by Zappa's sister Candy, and an afterword by Pauline Butcher, Zappa's former secretary and author of 'Freak Out! My Life With Frank Zappa', 'Zappa The Hard Way' might just be the best book you've never read in your life!</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
