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.

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

Middle England
Beginning eight years ago on the outskirts of Birmingham, where car factories have been replaced by Poundland, and London, where frenzied riots give way to Olympic fever, Middle England follows a brilliantly vivid cast of characters through a time of immense change. There are newlyweds Ian and Sophie, who disagree about the future of the country and, possibly, the future of their relationship; Doug, the political commentator who writes impassioned columns about austerity from his Chelsea townhouse, and his radical teenage daughter who will stop at nothing in her quest for social justice; Benjamin Trotter, who embarks on an apparently doomed new career in middle age, and his father Colin, whose last wish is to vote in the European referendum. And within all these lives is the story of modern England: a story of nostalgia and delusion; of bewilderment and barely-suppressed rage. Following in the footsteps of The Rotters' Club and The Closed Circle, Jonathan Coe's new novel is the novel for our strange new times.
