“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

Everybody’s Fly is a fast-moving, all-access pass to Fab’s extraordinary life—one that begins in a book- and jazz-filled Brooklyn home and takes us deep into New York's creative explosions from the 1970s to the 1990s. He didn’t just shape culture, he synthesized it—from highbrow to street, Harlem to SoHo, punk to rap, Warhol to Wild Style. Whether he’s skipping school to wander MoMA, painting subway cars that became moving masterpieces, or bringing hip-hop to downtown clubs for the first time, Freddy’s genius has always been in seeing what others couldn’t—until he made them see it too.

В этой аудиокниге представлены автобиографические новеллы одного из величайших писателей двадцатого века - Исаака Бабеля.

Сочетая сострадание Достоевского с язвительным остроумием Чехова, Бабель создал свой собственный точный с журналисткой точки зрения и в тоже время лиричный литературный стиль, который отличает его от всех других писателей постсоветской России.

Through the works and lives of various artists, including Kafka, Camus, Hemingway, Hesse, Lawrence, Van Gogh, Shaw, Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, Wilson explored the psyche of the outsider, his effect on society and society's on him.
