Ultimate Spitfires
by Peter Caygill"The Spitfire is probably Britain's best loved and admired airplane. It is also revered around the world. This book looks at the later marques that were modified for various special tasks and differed to a large degree from Supermarine's first early versions that saw action in the early days of World War II. New and more powerful Rolls-Royce engines replaced the well-tried Merlin, but increased the aircrafts performance in terms of speed and operational altitude. Subtle changes to wing design also increased the maneuverability and capability of these spectacular models that survived in the operational role until superseded by the introduction of jet-powered flight.The content explains the design details, development and flight testing of twelve models and also contains their operational roles and history. Lengthy appendices will include Griffon-powered Spitfire aces, V1 rocket destruction aces, Griffon-powered Spitfire losses and where the survivors can be found."

The Ultimate Walking Dead and Philosophy
by Wayne YuenIn The Walking Dead, human beings are pushed to their limits by a zombie apocalypse and have to decide what really matters. <P><P>Good and evil, freedom and slavery, when one life has to be sacrificed for another, even the nature of religion-all the ultimate questions of human existence are posed afresh as the old society crumbles away and a new form of society emerges, with new beliefs and new rules.

The Ultimate Woody Allen Film Companion
by Jason BaileyA complete look at the extensive, ageless, unparalleled filmography of Woody Allen. Writer, actor, director, comedian, author, and musician, Woody Allen is one of the most culturally and cinematically influential filmmakers of all time. His films - he has over 45 writing and directing credits to his name - range from slapstick to tragedy, farce to fantasy.

Bailey also includes essays on the fascinating themes that color Allen's works, from death and Freud to music and New York City. Getting up close and personal with the actors and actresses that have brought the iconic films to life, this book's behind-the-scenes stories span the entire career of a man whose catalog has grown into a timeless cornerstone of American pop culture. Complete with full cast lists, production details, and full-color images and artwork, The Ultimate Woody Allen Film Companion is the ultimate, indispensable reference to one of cinema's most beloved and important figures.

Los últimos días de Roger Federer: y otros finales
by Geoff DyerUnapoderosa reflexión sobre hallar propósito en el ocaso de nuestras vidas.«Dyer, que se ha propuesto escribir un libro sobre los finales, se siente atraído por la infinitud, por la forma en que una cosa lleva a la otra [...]. Hay pasajes realmente magníficos, algunos fragmentos de crítica maravillosos, algunas apasionantes descripciones de psicodélicos».The New York Times¿Qué ocurre con la carrera de grandes artistas y atletas cuando llegan a la vejez? ¿Alcanzan una serenidad renovada o sucumben al tormento? A medida que nuestro cuerpo y nuestra mente se deterioran, ¿cómo seguir adelante?Geoff Dyer reflexiona sobre las secuelas del paso del tiempo y se fija en los últimos días de grandes escritores, pintores, futbolistas, músicos y estrellas del tenis (sí, también Roger Federer). Con un tono mordaz y una lucidez inigualables, Dyer nos acerca a momentos críticos de genios que cedieron física o mentalmente cuando sus carreras alcanzaron la cúspide o que se reinventaron desafiando las convenciones. Entre su exquisita selección, Dyer nos confía el deterioro mental de Nietzsche, los nuevos sonidos que Dylan encontró tras una crisis creativa, las últimas pinturas con cierto aire abstracto de Turner, la brillante pluma de Jean Rhys en su madurez y los mágicos cuartetos finales de Beethoven.Los últimos días de Roger Federer es una ingeniosa y festiva reflexión sobre la finitud y sobre el arte como modo de perdurar en el tiempo. Una obra conmovedora, ágil y lúcida que nos devuelve la esperanza de hallar sentido a los últimos años de la vida. La crítica ha dicho:«Un tesoro nacional».Zadie Smith«Dulcemente transcendental. [...] Un libro que, a pesar de tratar un tema sombrío, rebosa energía y su voz resuena alegremente».The Sunday Times«Qué sensibilidad tiene charlando con el lector de una manera cálidamenteamigable,con su prosa salpicada de humor autocrítico y notas al pie, su erudición para nada pomposa o trivial».The Daily Telegraph«La madurez le ha llegado, pero la juventud no se ha ido. Son los soportes para las rodillas en ambas piernas los que ahora lo mantienen en la cancha de tenis, pero, al igual que Federer, lo que lo mantiene en el juego es una mezcla de estilo, toque, sincronización y buen ojo».The Guardian
Ulysses: An Illustrated Edition
by James JoyceThis strikingly illustrated edition presents Joyce&’s epic novel in a new, more accessible light, while showcasing the incredible talent of a leading Spanish artist. The neo-figurative artist Eduardo Arroyo (1937–2018), regarded today as one of the greatest Spanish painters of his generation, dreamed of illustrating James Joyce&’s Ulysses. Although he began work on the project in 1989, it was never published during his lifetime: Stephen James Joyce, Joyce&’s grandson and the infamously protective executor of his estate, refused to allow it, arguing that his grandfather would never have wanted the novel illustrated. In fact, a limited run appeared in 1935 with lithographs by Henri Matisse, which reportedly infuriated Joyce when he realized that Matisse, not having actually read the book, had merely depicted scenes from Homer&’s Odyssey. Now available for the first time in English, this unique edition of the classic novel features three hundred images created by Arroyo—vibrant, eclectic drawings, paintings, and collages that reflect and amplify the energy of Joyce&’s writing.
