Torv - Resor På Brittiska Öarna
Torven är inte bara torv. I dess djup finns ett arkiv över natur och kultur alltsedan den senaste nedisningen. Där finns pollen som berättar om vad som har vuxit och vad som har odlats. Där finns lik, mosslik, förunderligt välbevarade. Där finns kullvälta träd och skelett från jättehjortar, och där finns tusenåriga tunnor med smör: ännu ätligt, men med en underlig bismak.

England, My England, E-bok
England, My England' is a collection of short stories written between the years 1913-1921, including the notable 'Wintry Peacock'. Set against the backdrop of World War One, Lawrence uses them as a means to explore the complexity of human relationships and the human psyche. His provocative and controversial prose is unmissable for fans of Anton Chekhov's psychological musings. DH Lawrence (1885-1930) was an English poet and novelist. Famed for his lyrical prose, he was uncompromising in his mission to uncover the consequences of modernity and industrialization, particularly on sexuality, instinct, and spontaneity. His works, although innovative, were not truly appreciated until after his death, the most notable of which 'Lady Chatterley's Lover' was adapted to screen in 1981.

Orwell's England
Including The Road to Wigan Pier 'No one wrote better about the English character than Orwell' New York Review of Books Much of George Orwell's best writing, brought together in this collection, is concerned with his complex, often contradictory attitude to England. In the brilliantly perceptive The English People, he lists the national characteristics as 'suspicion of foreigners, sentimentality about animals, hypocrisy, exaggerated class distinctions and an obsession with sport'. The Road to Wigan Pier, his blistering account of poverty in the north of England, and many of his essays, attack what he called 'the most class-ridden country under the sun', while other writings here ruminate on the merits of cricket, gardening, roast dinners, pubs, tea and seaside postcards. Edited by Peter Davison with an Introduction by Ben Pimlott

Dear England
Winner of Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Play 2023 Winner of Best New Play at the Olivier Awards 2024 It’s time to change the game. The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. Why can’t England’s men win at their own game? The team has the worst track record for penalties in the world and manager Gareth Southgate knows he needs to open his mind and face up to the years of hurt to take team and country back to the promised land. James Graham’s ‘rousing new play’ (Tatler) is a fast-moving portrayal of Gareth Southgate’s reign as England football manager that presents a gripping examination of both nation and game. Uplifting, funny and more entertaining than a World Cup final. This edition was published to coincide with the West End transfer of Dear England in October 2023, following its world premiere at the National Theatre in June 2023.
Dear England
THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ‘In his book Dear England: Lessons in Leadership, Gareth Southgate shows that he was much more than a football manager. He changed the culture of the England team — and the country' Sunday Times ‘What is remarkable is the insight it offers into Southgate’s psychology and motivation: what sustained him through the darkest times and enabled him to become an exemplary leader’ The Times ‘Compelling, entertaining . . . Southgate articulated a moral vision that was beyond anything attempted by a generation of British politicians.' Guardian ‘A tremendous book’ Chris Evans ‘Many of us find ourselves called upon to be leaders at some point in our lives. Whatever meaning leadership has for you, I hope the stories I tell in these pages may resonate with your own experiences, and may even offer you some guidance.' ___________________________________________________________ As England manager, in one of the highest profile roles in the country, Gareth Southgate
