Paperback. Zustand: New. For thirty years, since the publication of his first novel, Americana, Don DeLillo has lived in the skin of our times. He has found a voice for the forgotten souls who haunt the fringes of our culture and for its larger-than-life, real-life figures. His language is defiantly, radiantly American.Now, to a new century, he has brought The Body Artist. In this spare, seductive novel, he inhabits the muted world of Lauren Hartke, an artist whose work defies the limits of the body. Lauren is living on a lonely coast in a rambling rented house, where she encounters a strange, ageless man, a man with uncanny knowledge of her own life. Together they begin a journey into the wilderness of time -- time, love, and human perception. The Body Artist is a haunting, beautiful, and profoundly moving novel from one of the finest writers of our time.

Audio-CD. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Glänzender, zupackender Techno bildet klare, gerade Linien, während kratzende Akustikgitarren die Kanten aufschürfen und geisterhafte Klänge erzeugen. Dabei könnten die Tracks nicht unterschiedlicher sein. Manche werden von kaum mehr als einer metronomischen Kick-Drum und einer Roboterstimme untermalt, andere sind tief in einer Schicht aus Melodie und euphorischem Lärm versunken - und dabei unverkennbar und einzigartig Underworld. Ein Album im herkömmlichen Sinne, dem man von Anfang bis Ende gebannt lauscht. So kommen wir dem Wunsch der beiden Underworld-Macher gerne nach: Please don't shuffle." Ein Sakrileg.In den dreißig Jahren, die seit ihrem bahnbrechenden Debüt dubnobasswithmyheadman vergangen sind, hat die Band ihren Ruf als eine der innovativsten und wichtigsten elektronischen Bands aller Zeiten gefestigt, die ständig kreative Grenzen überschreitet, Genres neu definiert und sich weigert, still zu stehen. Allein im vergangenen Jahr hat Underworld weltweit vor mehr als einer halben Million Menschen live gespielt.

A tight, Near Fine copy in the scarce dustwrapper, lightly soiled overall with a few nicks to extremities, Very Good to Near Fine. Very nice copy of this classic of juvenile criminal psychology. Burt achieved great eminence during his lifetime, in 1946 becoming the first British psychologist to be knighted as a reward for his research. Burt's methodologies came into question after his death, however, and it is now widely believed he falsified much of his data, particularly that relating to the inheritance of IQ. Nonetheless the current work remains compelling, for both its wealth of detailed personal case studies of British delinquents and the numerous photographic portraits which, though clearly staged, portray genuine subjects and are classics in their genre.
