    "Westerners have come in all sorts - ranchers, frontiersmen, gold miners, gunfighters, even singing cowboys. John Holt gives us a poet, lamenting the passing of the West.

    "You can't beat a great storyteller, whether he's writing the Great American Novel or a private eye adventure.

    "Unlike all those world-weary private investigators you've read about, here's one as fresh and green as a new dollar bill. You don't have to be grizzled and gruff to walk those mean streets."- Byron Rupert McCafferty, Seattle Book JournalAs the greenest private eye at the Aalborg Detective Agency, Bick Bates gets assigned a "nuisance file," a case nobody else wants to touch. Herbie Barnwell was a skid-row bum who was still in a coma, the result of a mysterious mugging. A new hire, Bick is a "college-boy professional," low man on the totem pole amid a dozen or so agents, the majority being stogie-chomping ex-cops. His colleagues looked down on a callow youth who was there to run errands for the bosses or sit down with prospective clients uncomfortable with the living, breathing stereotypes. Little did Bick expect his nuisance case would turn into a big deal. And a dangerous one at that.

    "When I read works by David Porteous in 7 Voices, a collection of short stories from the North Fork Writers Group, I wanted more. Now I have them in this new collection. Thanks for inviting us into your mind, Dave. Fascinating tales."- Hollis George, editor and anthologistA member of the North Fork Writers Group, David Porteous breaks out with a remarkable collection of short stories. As he says, "The stories are not autobiographical, but while the characters reveal facets of my views, they came to me with personalities and situations formed. They are mind-invaders because their presences prevented me from working on other projects; they refused to leave until I wrote their tales. I chose tales whose characters came in diverse styles of tale-telling, with cultural differences, and some echoing other stories to expand those themes for you. I haven't defined their settings - New York, Sydney, Shanghai or Oslo is irrelevant to people dealing with life's universal issues."

    "From learning how to feel good about yourself to dealing with 'revirgination,' Allison Seaborn will entertain you with tales that could be those of any Lady Boomer. Yes, I identified!"- Martha Griswold, professional domestic diva"Lady Boomers" is a term for female baby boomers who were born between 1946 and 1964. Whether corporate managers, administrative assistants earning middle-class wages, stay-at-home grandmas, or international travelers, those in their 50s and 60s need - and deserve - something to lighten their lives after a long, demanding day.

Topics include self-esteem, dating, finances, parenting adult children, conflict, friendship and more, intertwined with feelings of being very ordinary, "just average," and past the prime. Even though the readers' experiences won't be exactly the same as Allison Seaborn's, their odysseys - "a long wandering or series of travel" - will resonate with the emotions and questions you have in common. Allison points out that fun is a personal responsibility. "It's up to you to choose to feel good about yourself," she insists. By consciously applying mental adjustments, such as changing "bad'itudes" - bad attitudes - into "glad'itudes" - positive attitudes, life can be easier and richer.

    "The best book about fly fishing since A River Runs Through It. Makes me dream of rainbow trout and cold streams and remote wilderness landscapes ..." ¿ Edward Squires, Not Quite Novellas"It's now been more than fifty years that I've been fishing, and roaming and loving Montana and the rest of the northern high plains. Lines on maps don't mean a damn thing to good country or to me. Montana flows into Alberta and British Columbia and Wyoming. The western Dakotas are the same place as Eastern Montana only with different names. Land is connected, not defined by human limitations. I first thought of writing and compiling this book while working a stream that wound through a brushy, tall-grass valley at the base of the Pryor Mountains last summer. Wild rainbows fought for the chance to engulf the Elk Hair caddis I was using. Beautiful healthy, small, colorful fish. Early afternoon was now sunset, the hours passing in an instant. And this made me remember the first trip to Montana in the sixties and the intervening hundreds of thousands (come to think of it. maybe more than a million) of miles I've wandered checking good, bad and indifferent water hanging out in serene isolation all over the place during the past half century. That time also passing in an instant that also times seemed eternal."

    "John Holt's writings make the stark beauty of wilderness lands seem as real as if you're standing there on a high plateau with him. His characters are sunburnt, wind-blistered real. The harsh reality of living off the land offers a pleasure all its own. And death is always a integral part of Holt's landscape."- Nick Teranzi, Online Critics CornerJack Graves lived off the land, hunting and fishing and making his own way in this harsh, dry country that lay well away from cities. Free. Lonesome. No rules. But then his solitude is interrupted. Dark Star helicopters hovering over Mad Woman Gulch. Fires. Dead men. What was happening to his beloved Montana wilderness? Coal mining, that was nature's enemy. Meanwhile, Dark Star went about the business of punching the line through, hopefully before the winter weather, ugly storms screaming down from the arctic, closed in sometime in November. Piles of steel railroad ties, miles of heavy steel track, powerful graders, earth hauling rigs the size of houses, lots of explosives, track-laying machinery, D-11s, all of this stuff began accumulating in the company's yard. Would his life ever be the same?

  • af Brewster Chamberlin
    217,95 kr.

    Brewster Chamberlin readily admits one of the great pieces of buona Fortuna in his life was the 14 months he spent with Lynn-Marie Smith in a small village in the South of France just northwest of the old walled city of Avignon. This sprightly memoir is the story of those deeply enriching and adventurous months in a landscape both enchanted and occasionally dangerous, filled with the wildly magical scenes Van Gogh, Lawrence Durrell and other painters and writers have so vividly captured in their Provence-inspired work. Chamberlin's narrative takes the reader from the couple's first jaunty but seemingly frivolous thoughts about living in France generated by equal amounts of wine, food and frustration with life in Washington, through the serious matter of actually moving there and living through the vicissitudes of daily life in a countryside and language with which the couple possessed only a shaky acquaintance.
