Beschreibung

Noel Coward's book "I'll Leave It To You" is a compelling play that revolves around the life of a young woman named Victoria Gayforth, who suddenly finds herself faced with the responsibility of making life-altering decisions. Written in Coward's signature witty and sophisticated style, the play showcases his keen observation of human nature and societal norms. The dialogue-driven narrative and cleverly crafted characters make for an engaging read that delves into themes of independence, choice, and personal agency. Set during the early 20th century, the play reflects on the shifting social dynamics of the time, making it a valuable piece of literature for those interested in British theater history. Noel Coward, known for his sharp wit and talent for writing plays that combine humor with deeper reflections on life, was a prominent figure in British theater during the mid-20th century. His own experiences with navigating complex social situations and personal choices likely influenced the creation of this thought-provoking play. I highly recommend "I'll Leave It To You" to readers who appreciate well-crafted dialogue, nuanced characters, and a blend of comedy and drama. Coward's insightful portrayal of human nature and his ability to capture the essence of a bygone era make this play a timeless classic that continues to resonate with audiences today.

    Why should I buy this book? 
    This is not the first book that has dealt with Por and Para in Spanish, nor will it be the last. In truth, there are already lots of good books out there. 
    So, what is it that sets this one apart? What's the difference that makes the difference? 
    There's only one: 
    This book will help you use Por and Para fantastically well, whether you have a good memory or not! Would you be surprised if we told you that everything you need to know about Por and Para is already available on the internet and written into book after book? 
    So, why do you still not know how to use Por and Para accurately? Well, that's because up until now no one has given you an easy to remember, no nonsense system that's simplicity itself. 
    Pooling together their cumulative 30 years of teaching experience, Gordon and Cynthia Smith-Durán, co-owners of LightSpeed Spanish, have developed just that system. 
    'Pocket Por and Para' is probably the only book you will ever need to study on this subject. The great news is that thousands of students have already enjoyed success with this unique system. And you can join them too!

    Explore what sent hearts a flutter through the centuries in this compilation of erotic cultural and literary history.Dictionary of Erotic LiteratureRepresenting cultures around the world and spanning from ancient times to the twentieth century, this A-to-Z guide explores one of the most universal and enduring themes in literature. Entries range from Ovid’s Ars amatoria, second-century Gnosticism, and ninth-century Arabian poets, all the way up to the explicit novels published in Paris in the 1960s.As author Harry E. Wedeck explains in his introduction, a culture’s artistic and literary depictions of eroticism reveal a great deal about their way of life. In Dictionary of Erotic Literature, Wedeck draws on this endlessly vast topic to present an illustrative sampling of authors, written works, and terminology that will be of value to any student of literature or cultural history.Dictionary of AphrodisiacsFrom absinthe, almond soup, and Albertus Magnus to yarrow, yohimbine, and Émile Zola,this authoritative reference volume covers knowledge of aphrodisiacs spanning centuries and drawn from literature, spirituality, and ancient science. Entries include edible substances believed to enhance sexual performance, gemstones thought to possess amorous charms, gods and goddesses of love from various myths, and historic figures who contributed to studies and thought on aphrodisiacs.This dictionary reveals many intriguing ways for partners to enrich their relationships, including recipes to stimulate the gourmet lover using the many ingredients described in the book.Love Potions Through the AgesThis survey explores the evolution of love potion practices in societies over the centuries and across the world. Separate chapters focus on ancient Greece, Rome, India, and the Orient, as well as the Middle Ages and modern times. Wedeck relays the spiritual aspects of these concoctions as well as historical anecdotes about them. Recipes are also included, though Wedeck cautions that they are exclusively for academic purposes and not intended for personal use.

    Have you ever wanted to learn Spanish and have fun at the same time?  
    Most of the time, teaching books are boring. They always have the same kind of format: Two (sometimes more) people talking about where the library is, or where to find Juan. 
    That’s boring, and to be honest, it’s not a great way to learn the language (not to mention that they don’t always talk about things that you might encounter in your daily life, for example, a judgmental ghost, being the last man on Earth, or maybe find that the love of your life has been stolen).  
    But in this book, I will give you 20 short stories that range from science fiction to romance, everything in between and sometimes even more. These stories will give you an entire picture of the Spanish language, and how to appreciate the subtlety of the language. 
    The Spanish language is rich, full of small differences between the different countries. Things that might be one way in Argentina might be different in Spain or Mexico. But don’t worry, with this book, you will have a firm grasp on the language, and you will be able to understand and have a conversation with any Spanish speaker.After each story, there will be a questionnaire section where you will answer questions about the stories in Spanish. I really suggest to grab a blank page, and write down the answers, or the small assignments that you will be given (don’t worry, they won’t be long!). Remember to write them in Spanish, so you can practice and use the language. Also, in this section, you will find grammar and fun facts not just from the stories themselves, but from the inspirations behind them, and facts about living in a Spanish country. I hope you like them.All these stories are written from my heart, and I deeply hope that you will find them funny, mysterious, romantic, or at least entertaining.  
    That’s my goal as a writer, and I hope you enjoy your time reading (and learning!)
