Surrealism and Photography in Czechoslovakia
Surrealism and Photography in Czechoslovakia: On the Needles of Days sheds much-needed light on the location of the greatest concentration of Surrealist photography and examines the culture and tradition within which it has taken root and flourished. The volume explores a rich and important artistic output, very little of which has been seen outside of its land of origin. Based on extensive research at museums in Prague and Brno and many conversations with participants in and historians of the movement, Krzysztof Fijalkowski, Michael Richardson and Ian Walker analyse how this photographic work has developed cohesively and rigorously, from the beginnings of Czech Surrealism in 1934, to the in...
Three Lions On The Shirt
The first critical biography of the English national football team. From Stanley Matthews to Bobby Moore to Michael Owen, all the icons of the English game have worn the famous white shirt. It is those players and their achievements that make the shirt special and still make England the nation the rest of the world wants to beat. Three Lions on the Shirt is a history of the England team throughout the last century. From back in the days when players received a match fee of 10/- for an international, and were selected from the likes of Wednesday Strollers, Clapham Rovers and Darwen, through the post-war humiliation at the hands of the USA and Hungary to England's finest moment in 1966; from the disappointment of the seventies and the eighties to the relative renaissance of the nineties, Dave Bowler chronicles the vicissitudes of a team lambasted and worshipped in equal measure. Three Lions on the Shirt is the first critical biography of the national team: it features original interviews with over fifty plays and managers, past and present, including Tom Finney, Geoff Hurst, Gary Lineker, Rodney Marsh, Cyrille Regis, Les Ferdinand, the Neville brothers and Paul Merson.
Too Much of Water
London detectives Lambert and Hook are entangled in "a beguiling plot . . . and plenty of twists" as they dig through a dead girl's past ( Booklist). Gloucestershire is suffering through a brutal heatwave, but things are getting even stickier for Superintendent John Lambert and Det. Sergeant Bert Hook. The body of lovely young university student, Clare Mills, has been found strangled, and floating quietly along the Severn River. Unfortunately, not a soul who knew her is particularly grief stricken—or forthcoming. Not her mentor, or the postgrad student with the unrequited crush, or her dearest friend, or her ex-husband, or even her stepfather. And least of all, and most alarming, not even Claire's own mother who barely elicits a blink when hearing of daughter's brutal murder. That they all have their secrets isn't surprising to Lambert and Hook. But it's Claire's own secrets that are proving to be the most revealing of all. And they've yet to claim their last victim.
