Sinossi

In "Thackeray," Anthony Trollope offers a compelling exploration of the life and works of William Makepeace Thackeray, a preeminent figure of the Victorian literary landscape. Crafted with Trollope's characteristic blend of personal reflection and scholarly insight, this biography delves into Thackeray's narrative techniques, social critique, and his nuanced portrayals of a rapidly changing society. Drawing parallels between Thackeray's own experiences and the tumultuous era in which he lived, Trollope employs a prose style that is both accessible and richly textured, inviting readers to appreciate the depth and complexity of Thackeray's contribution to literature. Anthony Trollope, himself a celebrated novelist, was deeply embedded in the literary culture of his time, which influenced his perspective on Thackeray. Their friendship and professional rivalry shaped Trollope's appreciation for Thackeray's wit and insight. Trollope's intimate knowledge of the literary circles of Victorian England, combined with his own experiences as a novelist, provides a unique lens through which to analyze Thackeray's legacy. For readers seeking a deeper understanding of Victorian literature and the dynamics between its key figures, "Thackeray" is an essential work. Trollope's adept storytelling sheds light on Thackeray's enduring importance, making this biography not just a tribute to a fellow writer, but a celebration of the literary heritage that shaped modern storytelling.

    With a career spanning over fifty years, Tom Waits remains one of rock’s great enigmas; a chameleon-like survivor who, like Bob Dylan and Neil Young, has achieved long-term success while retaining cult credibility and outsider mystique.  Lowside of the Road, by Barney Hoskyns, offers a unique, affectionate and penetrating portrait of Waits spanning from Closing Time to Orphans, and beyond.  Based on extensive research and deep critical insight, Hoskyns' definitive account of Waits' life and work is an outstanding exploration of this notoriously private artist and performer.

    Get inside the head of one of the most influential musicians of our time with this collection of her most inspiring and revealing quotes. 
 
The quotations in this book have been carefully curated from Taylor Swift’s numerous public statements—interviews, op-eds, social media posts, and more. It’s a comprehensive picture of her meteoric rise to the top, her ever-savvy business sense, and her increasingly forthright perspective on the music world and beyond. 
 
Swift’s catchy, chart-topping songs have propelled her to become one of the bestselling musicians of all time. But in the more than fifteen years she’s been making music, she has also amassed enough power to buck the norms of an industry notorious for controlling the images of its often very young female artists. She’s stood up for herself and for other artists, championing their rights to fair royalties, and inspired tens of thousands of fans to register to vote. Swift’s achievements have earned her spots on both Forbes’s Most Powerful Women and Time’s 100 Most Influential People lists. Now, for the first time, you can find her most inspirational, thought-provoking quotes in one place.
