<p><em>'Every summer we sit like this. We should call ourselves something.' Ash Wolf said.</em></p> <p><em>'Why?' said Goodman, her older brother. 'So the whole world can know just how unbelievably</em> interesting <em>we are?'</em></p> <p>On a warm July night in 1974 six teenagers play at being cool. The friendships they make this summer will be the most important and consuming of their lives. In a teepee at summer camp they smoke pot and drink vodka & Tangs, talk of G?nter Grass and the latest cassette tapes; they also share their dreams and ambitions, still so fresh and so possible.</p> <p>But decades later not everyone can sustain in adulthood what had seemed so special in adolescence. Jules Jacobson, an aspiring comic actress, has resigned herself to a more practical occupation; Cathy has stopped dancing; Jonah has laid down his guitar and taken up engineering. Only Ethan's talent has endured. As their fortunes tilt precipitously over the years, some of them dealing with great struggle, others enjoying extraordinary wealth and success, friendships are put under the strain of envy and crushing disappointment.</p> <p>Against the backdrop of a changing America, from Nixon's resignation to Obama's new world, Wolitzer's panoramic tragicomedy asks how 'the Interestings' can be happy with being anything less than brilliant?</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。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Battle of Itter Castle, 1945【電子書籍】[ Stephen Wynn ]
<p>An exploration of one of the only two known times in the Second World War in which the Americans and Germans fought side by side. The Battle of Itter Castle was undoubtedly one of the strangest events of the Second World War, being one of only two occasions during the war in which Americans and Germans fought side by side. The castle was seized by the Nazis on 7 February 1943, on the direct orders of Heinrich Himmler, and in just ten weeks was changed into a five-star prison for a number of high-ranking French dignitaries, both civilian and military. In the final days of the war, in May 1945, with the castle's German guards having deserted their posts and an attack by SS units imminent, those inside the castle realised they needed help. Having sent out two men to try to make contact with American forces, it was then a case of sit and wait, not knowing if they had been successful in their task or had been captured and killed by the SS. Help eventually arrived in the shape of United States Army Captain John C. "Jack" Lee, his tank and a handful of men, along with German Wehrmacht officer Major Josef "Sepp" Gangl, and some of his men. Although happy that their 'prayers' had been answered and help had arrived, the French dignitaries could not hide their disappointment at such a small force of rescuers. The subsequent battle started early on the morning of Saturday, 5 May, and continued until mid-afternoon when a larger American force arrived and defeated the remaining SS forces. The victory came at a price for Major Gangl, who was the only one of the defenders to lose his life in the fighting.</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。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Newcomer to the Horse World【電子書籍】[ Andrea Sinner ]
<p>Andrea Sinner embarked on her equestrian journey at age 30 while navigating an all-consuming global consulting career. A neophyte with little to guide her but passion, she found the horse world's customs and complexities challenging. After 25 years of hard-earned lessons and continuous growth, Sinner now shares the wisdom she fought to gain along the way, with a book for adults who are newcomers to the equestrian lifestyle as she once was. Whether riders themselves or the parents of horse-crazy children, the equestrian realm can be daunting and often perplexing to those beginning their journey with horses. Luckily, Sinner's book serves as a comprehensive insider's guide, offering a sensible pathway to enjoying the company of horses while always advocating for their welfare. Sinner's advice is clear and on point, helping readers confidently find their place among both the professionals and the lifelong enthusiasts in this unique world. Rather than focusing on horse care or ridingーtopics she acknowledges are well covered in existing published worksーSinner aims to help readers integrate smoothly into the equestrian community on their own terms. She deftly demystifies the often bewildering culture, traditions, conventions, and unwritten rules, and offers "watch-outs" to help shield the novice from the less savory characters and practices that unfortunately can be encountered in the industry. You'll find advice on: Appreciating the unique language, relationships, and responsibilities Defining your values, boundaries, and objectives Understanding the financial costs, including (most importantly) exceptional horse care Finding the right barn, trainer, and horse Building a quality horse care team Being a good client and member of the barn Preparing for the psychological elements of the sport And much more Throughout, Sinner delves into what it means to intend to "do right" by horses and guides readers on extending their involvement in the sport only as far as that intention can be realized. Learn how to form deep connections and elevate your time spent with horses and horse people from a hobby to a transformative journey. Whether taking up riding for the first time (ever, or in many years) or guiding a horse-crazy child through the maze of learning to ride, Sinner's thorough and thoughtful book promises positive experiences and happy moments in the barn, at the ring, and in the company of your horse.</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>Shaun Ryder has lived a life of glorious highs and desolate lows. As lead singer of the Happy Mondays, he turned Manchester into Madchester, combining all the excesses of a true rock'n'roll star with music and lyrics that led impresario Tony Wilson to describe him as 'the greatest poet since Yeats'.

Very."</strong> <strong>ー <em>Cosmopolitan</em> on <em>White Sand, Blue Sea</em></strong><br /> Set on St. Barts, the jewel of the Caribbean, Anita Hughes's WHITE SAND, BLUE SEA is a heartwarming story about romance and adventure, and most important, about knowing yourself, and what makes you happy.<br /> Olivia Miller is standing on the porch of her mother and stepfather's plantation style villa in St. Barts.

He's a well-known artist and crisscrosses the globe, painting and living in exotic locations like Kenya and China. When Sebastian unexpectedly walks through the door and floats back into Olivia's life like a piece of bad driftwood she never knew she wanted, she starts to wonder if her world is too narrow. She questions the dreams and the relationship she's always thought she wanted.

<p><strong>William di Canzio's <em>Alec</em>, inspired by <em>Maurice</em>, E. M. Forster's secret novel of a happy same-sex love affair, tells the story of Alec Scudder, the gamekeeper Maurice Hall falls in love with in Forster's classic, published only after the author's death.</strong><br /> Di Canzio follows their story past the end of <em>Maurice</em> to the front lines of battle in World War I and beyond. Forster, who tried to write an epilogue about the future of his characters, was stymied by the radical change that the Great War brought to their world. With the hindsight of a century, di Canzio imagines a future for them and a past for Alecーa young villager possessed of remarkable passion and self-knowledge.<br /> <em>Alec</em> continues Forster's project of telling stories that are part of "a great unrecorded history." Di Canzio's debut novel is a love story of epic proportions, at once classic and boldly new.</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。

タイトル: Tom Lake著者: Ann Patchett出版社: Harper Perennial出版日: 2025年04月01日新しい本新古品・未使用品。出版社からの新着。#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICKIn this beautiful and moving novel about family, love, and growing up, Ann Patchett once again proves herself one of America's finest writers."Patchett leads us to a truth that feels like life rather than literature." --The GuardianIn the spring of 2020, Lara's three daughters return to the family's orchard in Northern Michigan. While picking cherries, they beg their mother to tell them the story of Peter Duke, a famous actor with whom she shared both a stage and a romance years before at a theater company called Tom Lake. As Lara recalls the past, her daughters examine their own lives and relationship with their mother, and are forced to reconsider the world and everything they thought they knew.Tom Lake is a meditation on youthful love, married love, and the lives parents have led before their children were born. Both hopeful and elegiac, it explores what it means to be happy even when the world is falling apart. As in all of her novels, Ann Patchett combines compelling narrative artistry with piercing insights into family dynamics. The result is a rich and luminous story, told with profound intelligence and emotional subtlety, that demonstrates once again why she is one of the most revered and acclaimed literary talents working today.

古本, 英語で予約する, 洋書【古本】 Hooked: Pirates, Poaching, and the Perfect Fish - G Bruce Knecht (Rodale Books) 【紙書籍】 9781594861109
タイトル: Hooked: Pirates, Poaching, and the Perfect Fish著者: G Bruce Knecht出版社: Rodale Books出版日: 2006年05月02日古本非常に良い。端が少し摩耗しているが、汚れのないきれいな本。製本状態は良好。ダスト ジャケットが付属している場合は、それも含まれます。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。This modern pirate yarn has all the makings of a great true adventure tale and is also an exploration of the ways our culinary tastes have all manner of unintended consequences for the world around us.Hooked is a story about the poaching of the Patagonian toothfish (known to gourmands as Chilean Sea Bass) and is built around the pursuit of the illegal fishing vessel Viarsa by an Australian patrol boat, Southern Supporter, in one of the longest pursuits in maritime history.Author G. Bruce Knecht chronicles how an obscure fish merchant in California "discovered" and renamed the fish, kicking off a worldwide craze for a fish no one had ever heard of - and everyone had to have. And with demand exploding, priates were only too happy to satisfy our taste for Chilean Sea Bass. Knecht - whose previous book The Proving Ground was hailed by Walter Cronkite as "a sailing masterpiece...a tale more thrilling than fiction"--captivates readers by deftly shifting among the story's nail-biting elements: The perilous chase at sea through frenzied winds, punishing waves, and an obstacle course of icebergs; the high-stakes environmental battle and courtroom drama; and the competitive battle among the world's restaurants to serve the perfect, flaky, white-fleshed fish.From the world's most treacherous waters to its most fabulous kitchens, Hooked is at once a thrilling tale and a revelatory popular history that will appeal to a diverse group of readers. Think Kitchen Confidential meets The Hungry Ocean.

<p>Growing up in the '50s in what was then the small town of Napa, California, Donna Brazzi had loving parents, a backyard the size of a football field with a swing and a big wooden picnic table perfect for summer barbecues, a cocker spaniel named Patty, and a cat named Stinkyーeverything a kid could want. She was a happy child. But as she grew older and started to reach for more than a young woman from a working-class, Swiss-Italian family was expected to wantーa university education and a career in the larger world beyond her hometownーshe began to see that if she was going to realize her big dreams, she was going to have to fight for them. Big Dreams is Donna's story of pursuing her education goals while confronting society's assumptions about women's roles in work, marriage, and motherhood from the 1950s through the mid-2000s, helped along by the evolving social movements for equality. Her journey from obedient daughter to minister's wife to PhD in sociology was never a smooth oneーbut ultimately, with passion and persistence, she broke free of the family and cultural assumptions constraining her, forged her own identity, and shaped the life she wanted.</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。

When her husband cannot tolerate her defects, they divorce and Vivi relocates to the country with her baby to work for her old boss.</p> <p>Chronically exhausted, mentally struggling, and on her own, Vivi must move onーfor her own and her son’s sake. But just as with her failed rebirth, swapping old for new isn’t as straightforward as it seems.

<p><strong>An unprecedented literary event: a beloved world religious leader proposes a way to lead an ethical, happy, and spiritual life beyond religion and offers a program of mental training for cultivating key human values.</strong></p> <p>Over twenty years ago, in his best-selling <em>Ethics for a New Millennium</em>, His Holiness the Dalai Lama first proposed an approach to ethics based on universal rather than religious principles. In <em>Beyond Religion</em>, the Dalai Lama, at his most compassionate and outspoken, elaborates and deepens his vision for the nonreligious way.</p> <p>Transcending the mere “religion wars,” he outlines a system of ethics for our shared world, one that gives full respect to religion. With the highest level of spiritual and intellectual authority, the Dalai Lama makes a stirring appeal for what he calls a “third way,” a path to an ethical and happy life and to a global human community based on understanding and mutual respect.</p> <p><em>Beyond Religion</em> is an essential statement from the Dalai Lama, a blueprint for all those who may choose not to identify with a religious tradition, yet still yearn for a life of spiritual fulfillment as they work for a better world.</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>A cross between Henry Beard's <em>Latin for All Occasions</em> and Ben Schott's <em>Schott's Original Miscellany</em>, JUST SAY NU is a practical guide to using Yiddish words and expressions in day-to-day situations. Along with enough grammar to enable readers to put together a comprehensible sentence and avoid embarrassing mistakes, Wex also explains the five most useful Yiddish words? *shoyn, nu, epes, takeh,*and <em>nebakh</em>?what they mean, how and when to use them, and how they can be used to conduct an entire conversation without anybody ever suspecting that the reader doesn't have the vaguest idea of what anyone is actually saying.
