Nearly as wry as Jane Austen herself, Barron delivers pleasure and amusement in her second delicious Jane Austen mystery (Jane and the Unpleasantness of Scargave Manor, 1996) While headed to Lyme Regis for a seaside holiday in 1804, the Austen carriage overturns and Jane's sister Cassandra is injured The family finds shelter at High Down Grange, ожтуб home of sardonic Geoffrey Sidmouth and his beautiful cousin Seraphine LeFevre The narrative is structured as a journal in which Barron's Jane notes her distress at finding herself attracted to the sensuous Sidmouth The Austens' trip is historically accurate but sparsely enough documented to allow Barron great latitude in creating a tale that makes the most of the period when the Napoleonic Wars raged and the coast was rife with smugglers At the local Assembly dance, Jane gathers gossip from the Crawfords, Barnewalls, Lucy Armstrong and Captain Percival Fielding, an injured naval officer, who hints that Sidmouth is the "Reverend," a notorious smuggler When Fielding is murdered and Sidmouth arrested, a customs agent asks Jane to conduct an undercover investigation She eagerly agrees With indefatigable daring and intelligence, Jane discovers the true natures of her new acquaintances and the meaning of heroism While Austen denied that her characters were based on real people, Barron cleverly turns to characters from Austen novels as models for her own: Mrs Bennet for Mrs Austen, Willoughby for Sidmouth, Elizabeth's relationship with Darcy for Jane's with Sidmouth Worthy of its origins, this book is a delight Reissue edition Автор Стефани Баррон Stephanie Barron.  Издательство: Crimeline, 1997 г Мягкая обложка, 368 стр ISBN 0553574892.

A witty, wise, biting, and completely individual meditation on what it means to think, live, and be to the contrary In the book that he was born to write, provocateur and best-selling author Christopher Hitchens inspires future generations of radicals, gadflies, mavericks, rebels, angry young (wo)men, and dissidents Who better to speak to that ожтуц person who finds him or herself in a contrarian position than Hitchens, who has made a career of disagreeing in profound and entertaining ways This book explores the entire range of "contrary positions"-from noble dissident to gratuitous pain in the butt In an age of overly polite debate bending over backward to reach a happy consensus within an increasingly centrist political dialogue, Hitchens pointedly pitches himself in contrast He bemoans the loss of the skills of dialectical thinking evident in contemporary society He understands the importance of disagreement-to personal integrity, to informed discussion, to true progress-heck, to democracy itself Epigrammatic, spunky, witty, in your face, timeless and timely, this book is everything you would expect from a mentoring contrarian.  2005 г Мягкая обложка, 141 стр ISBN 0465030335.
