Dolce Vita Confidential - Shawn Levy - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

SUNDAY TIMES FILM BOOK OF THE YEAR '' Uproariously readable ... Levy is a master of the group biography'' Sunday Times ''Teeming with satisfying gossipy details'' Guardian ''Exalts the intoxicating, beguiling dreaminess of Rome in its celluloid heyday'' TLS 1950s Rome. From the ashes of war, the Eternal City is reborn as the epicentre of film, style, boldfaced libertinism and titillating journalism. It''s the heyday of fashion icons such as Pucci and Brioni, and the height of ''Hollywood on the Tiber'', when a dizzying array of stars flock to Cinecittà, the huge movie studio on the outskirts of Rome. At the bars on Via Veneto the likes of Ingrid Bergman, Audrey Hepburn and Elizabeth Taylor mix with blue bloods and bohemians, while behind them trail street photographers in pursuit of the most unflattering and dramatic portraits of fame.In a fast-paced, kaleidoscopic narrative, Shawn Levy shows how all roads lead to Federico Fellini''s world-conquering movie La Dolce Vita , starring Marcello Mastroianni and the Swedish bombshell Anita Ekberg. He recreates Rome''s stunning ascent with vivid and compelling tales of its glitterati and artists, down to every last outrageous detail of the city''s magnificent transformation.

Pale Fire - Vladimir Nabokov - Bog - Orion Publishing Co - Plusbog.dk

''One of the greatest books I''ve ever read. Its heart is strange, but it is huge; let yours beat in response'' MARY GAITSKILL Pale Fire , a 999-line poem, is the final work of the celebrated - and recently murdered - American author, John Francis Shade.Here that poem is transcribed, introduced and annotated (at length) by Shade''s fellow scholar, neighbour and apparent friend, Charles Kinbote.Approaching this task with gusto, Kinbote''s annotations reveal conclusive evidence of his own impact on Shade, disguised references to the northern land of Zembla, which he may or may not have once ruled over, and fuel for his many preoccupations and paranoia.And - as his annotations become more desperate, more deluded, more deranged - Kinbote unintentionally sheds new light on the poet''s last days and the pair''s ''glorious friendship''.A murder mystery, a work of wild invention, a reimagining of what the novel can do, a piece of exquisite comedy, Pale Fire is widely regarded as Nabokov''s masterpiece and one of the most brilliant novels ever written. A W&N Essential with an introduction from Mary Gaitskill
