Refugee Memoirs - Is The Grass Really Greener On The Other Side..?

de Tom Zed

13,24€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The author of Refugee Memoirs took on to emigrate out of the comfort of his family home and native country, Poland, as a teenager, not knowing perhaps, the full, life-changing implications laying ahead.Adventure and the unknown were the real drivers, under the mask of a ‘political refugee’, as was the requirement to qualify for the status and the protection, under the Geneva Refugee Convention in ‘The West’.There were tens of thousands of refugees in the camps of Vienna, Austria and elsewhere, like in West Germany, Sweden and Britain at the time, about a year or so before the Berlin Wall fell. The transition from a relatively wealthy lifestyle to the barren lager (Traiskirchen and Götzendorf, where the old army barracks were made available to accommodate the masses) and queuing for meals supplied was intimidating, humbling and sobering, especially for a young, city teen.

Basil Street Blues: A Family Story

de Michael Holroyd

9,26€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Michael Holroyd - the most famous biographer in Britain - turns his attention upon himself and his own family in Basil Street Blues (the title comes from the Basil Street Hotel where the author was conceived in the 1930s). Born into a family rich in eccentricity, Holroyd was largely brought up by his grandparents in Maidenhead because his exotic Swedish mother and reserved English father couldn''t stand living together. (His grandparents'' marriage provided no better model - his grandfather having had a four-year affair with a woman he met at a bus stop before coming back to his grandmother). Towards the end of Holroyd''s parents'' lives he persuaded them to write their own stories and using the results, plus his own memories and researches he has written this moving and self-revealing book.

Mosaic

de Michael Holroyd

9,26€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 ''This is a book about surprises - at any rate, it has surprised me.'' In 1999, Michael Holroyd published Basil Street Blues, in which one of our finest biographers turned his attentions to something more personal - his own family. But rather than the story being over, in fact it was just beginning. For as the letters from readers started to arrive, the author discovered an extraordinary narrative that his own memoir had only touched upon. Mosaic, then, is Michael Holroyd''s piecing together of these remarkable stories: some of which are pleasant surprises, other more startling. There is the death of the fearsome headmaster at his school, who was murdered by one of the boys after he left: the discovery that his Swedish grandmother was the mistress of the French anarchist writer Jacques Prevert; and a letter from Margaret Forster about the beauty of his mother, that leads to his remarkable account of a decade-long affair. A love story, a detective story, a book of secrets, Mosaic is both a beautifully written journey into a forest of family trees, and a fascinating insight into the workings of genealogy.
