Behind the scenes at the museum

Corgi, 1996. Paperback. Pp: 381. Kate Atkinson's brilliant and unforgettable first novel, which won the Whitbread (now Costa) Book of the Year Prize. 'Delivers its jokes and its tragedies as efficiently as Dickens.outrageously funny.will dazzle readers for years to come' - HILARY MANTEL, author of The Mirror and the Light Ruby Lennox was conceived grudgingly by Bunty and born while her father, George, was in the Dog and Hare in Doncaster telling a woman in an emerald dress and a D-cup that he wasn't married. Bunty had never wanted to marry George, but here she was, stuck in a flat above the pet shop in an ancient street beneath York Minster, with sensible and sardonic Patrica aged five, greedy cross-patch Gillian who refused to be ignored, and Ruby. Ruby tells the story of The Family, from the day at the end of the nineteenth century when a travelling French photographer catches frail beautiful Alice and her children, like flowers in amber, to the startling, witty, and memorable events of Ruby's own life. 'Little short of a masterpiece.Fizzing with wit and energy, Kate Atkinson's hilarious novel made me laugh and cry' Daily Mail 'An astounding book.without doubt one of the finest novels I have read for years' THE TIMES.

A History of Spain & Portugal

Penguin Books, 1960. Pocket. Pp: 382. Attempts to show as a whole the Peninsula made up of Spain and Portugal, with the slow unfolding of a pattern of society and an attitude to life still subtly distinct from those north of the Pyrenees. The successive occupations of Roman, Visigoth and Muslim span between them more than a thousand years. The Peninsula's great contribution to the modern age was the opening up of the New World in the west by Spain, and of new routes to the east by Portugal. Over the last century and a half the history of both peoples provides a case-study in the esential relativity of forms of government. ISBN: 9780140204643. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Een leger bij dageraad. De bevrijding van europa 1942-1943

Meulenhoff Boekerij B.V. 2009. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 828. Een leger bij dageraad is het eerste deel van Rick Atkinsons trilogie over de bevrijding van Europa. Dit eerste deel begint bij de oorlog in Noord-Afrika en eindigt bij de capitulatie van het Duitse leger. Atkinson is een meester in het combineren van gedegen historisch onderzoek met een open en indringende vertelstijl, waardoor hij niet alleen de feiten helder en overzichtelijk uiteen weet te zetten, maar ook de betrokkenen geheel tot leven weet te brengen. Een leger bij dageraad begint met de gewaagde invasie in november 1942. Het volgt de Amerikaanse en Britse legers terwijl ze de Fransen in Marokko en Algerije bevechten, en daarna de Duitsers en Italianen in Tunesië. In dit eerst deel van de bevrijdingstrilogie laat Rick Atkinson zien waarom geen moderne lezer de ultieme overwinning van de geallieerde machten kan begrijpen zonder te hebben gelezen over het grote drama dat zich in Noord-Afrika heeft ontvouwen in 1942 en 1943.
