Arrow Books, 2003. Thick paperback. 717 pages. Very good, clean and tight copy.  'I have put my genius into my life but only my talent into my work'. So said Oscar Wilde of his remarkable life - a life more complex, more erotic, more troubled and more triumphant than any of his contemporaries ever knew or suspected. Neil McKenna's The Secret Life of Oscar Wilde charts fully for the first time Oscar's astonishing erotic odyssey through Victorian London's sexual underworld. Oscar Wilde emerges as a man driven personally and creatively by his powerful desires for sex with men, and Neil McKenna argues compellingly and convincingly that Oscar's Wilde's life and work can only be fully understood and appreciated in terms of his sexuality.The book draws of a vast range of sources, many of them previously unpublished, and includes startling new material like the statements made to the police by the male prostitutes and blackmailers ranged against Oscar Wilde at his trial which have been lost for over a century.Dazzlingly written, The Secret Life of Oscar Wilde meticulously and brilliantly reconstructs Oscar Wilde's emotional and sexual life, painting an astonishingly frank and vivid portrait of a troubled genius who chose to martyr himself for the cause of love between men.

Thames & Hudson, 2020. 8vo. Paperback. 599 pages. Illustrated. Very good clean copy. No foreign shipping for this item! Whitney Chadwick’s acclaimed study challenges the assumption that great women artists are exceptions to the rule, who ‘transcended’ their sex to produce major works of art. While acknowledging the many women whose contribution to visual culture since the Middle Ages have often been neglected, Chadwick’s survey amounts to much more than an alternative canon of women artists: it re-examines the works themselves and the ways in which they have been perceived as marginal, often in direct reference to gender. In her disussion of feminism and its influence on such a reappraisal, the author also addresses the closely related issues of ethnicity, class and sexuality. With a new preface and epilogue by Flavia Frigeri on the history of women artists, this revised edition continues the project of charting the evolution of feminist art history and pedagogy in recent years, revealing how artists have responded to new strategies of feminism for the current moment.

University of California Press 2018. Hardcover, w jacket. 279 pp. Unread, like new copy. 1. ed.- "Sophisticated Giant presents the life and legacy of tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon (1923-1990), one of the major innovators of modern jazz. In a context of biography, history, and memoir, Maxine Gordon has completed the book that her late husband began, weaving his "solo" turns with her voice and a chorus of voices from past and present. Reading like a jazz composition, the blend of research, anecdote, and a selection of Dexter's personal letters reflects his colorful life and legendary times. It is clear why the celebrated trumpet genius Dizzy Gillespie said to Dexter, "Man, you ought to leave your karma to science." Dexter Gordon the icon is the Dexter beloved and celebrated on albums, on film, and in jazz lore--even in a street named for him in Copenhagen. But this image of the cool jazzman fails to come to terms with the multidimensional man full of humor and wisdom, a figure who struggled to reconcile being both a creative outsider who broke the rules and a comforting insider who was a son, father, husband, and world citizen. This essential book is an attempt to fill in the gaps created by our misperceptions as well as the gaps left by Dexter himself."

Ggads Forlag, 2019. Hardcover. 256 sider. Nærmest som ny. rigt illustreret bog om vidunderlige klassiske cocktails og deres historier. Cocktailhistorie er kulturhistorie og verdenshistorie, og bogen kommer vidt omkring: fra Caribiens sukkerrør og slaveri over Singapores luksushotel Raffles til Frankrig, hvor en gal (eller genial?) læge transplanterede abetestikler til rigmænd med drømme om evigt liv. I 2016 og 2017 præsenterede P1 Eftermiddag Cocktailtimen. De populære cocktailhistorier bliver nu samlet i en skøn bog. 52 cocktails i alt – det er én om ugen i et helt år, hvis man vil prøve dem alle sammen. Grev Negroni, manden bag cocktailen af samme navn, blev advaret mod at drikke flere end 20 om dagen, det samme gør vi. Det er en samling af klassiske cocktails, nogle af dem næsten glemt, men altid med den gode historie om, hvordan den blev til, er blevet berømt eller omfortolket af senere tider. Cocktailopskrifter og -historier er samlet og nedfældet af Radioavisens Karen Nielsen i samarbejde med P1 Eftermiddags Tore Leifer.

Edition Korrespondenzen, 2002. 8vo. 35 Seiten. Einband mit ein wenig Gebrauchsspuren sonst gut. 1. Aufl. Inger Christensens Hörstück ist ein vielstimmiges Spiel um eine revolutionäre Gruppe, die einen Piratensender betreibt - "irgendwo auf der Erde, warum also nicht hier" - und die ihre Mitteilungen in Form eines Codes sendet. Es ist indes unklar, ob sich der Code überhaupt von jemandem entziffern und seiner Absicht entsprechend gebrauchen lässt. Insofern er aber symptomatisch ist für das Verhältnis zwischen einer alternativen Gruppe und einem etablierten System, lässt er sich vielleicht missbrauchen: dazu nämlich, jene Dinge aufzudecken, die sich ständig zwischen Theorie und Handlung verlieren, oder die versteckten Übergänge aufzuzeigen zwischen der Art und Weise, ein Teil der Lösung, und der Art und Weise, ein Teil des Problems zu sein. Wer also sind die verirrten Schafe? Wer sind die irreführenden Schafe? "Eines jedenfalls ist sicher: Wenn du lernst, dich als Schaf zu fühlen, dann stehst du auch mit der Verantwortung für die Welt da." AUTOR: Inger Christensen, geboren 1935 in Vejle/Jütland, lebt in Kopenhagen. Sie veröffentlichte Romane, Erzählungen, Lyrik und Essays, schrieb fünf Hörspiele, ein Theaterstück und ein Opernlibretto. Ihr Werk, das die Grenzen zwischen Poesie, Philosophie und Religion durchlässig macht, zählt zum Bedeutendsten der europäischen Gegenwartsliteratur und wurde mit zahlreichen internationalen Preisen ausgezeichnet.
