Paperback. Etat : New. Eric Cantona is an enduring enigma. No Frenchman in the past 50 years has so successfully captured the British imagination. In scintillating essays that bring to life Cantona's wild swings - on what felt like a weekly basis - between hero and villain, this idiosyncratic catalogue of the footballer's 82 goals for Manchester United, describing the matches in which each goal was scored, is a close-up portrait of an unparalleled artist which takes the reader back to some of footballing's most cherished moments. Manchester United was dominating English football during this period, a run of success which began with their first league title in 26 years during the 1992-3 season. Inspiring younger players such as Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and David Beckham, Cantona was, and remains, an iconic figure, known for his style and effortless grace, his French flair and his unwavering, unapologetic non-conformity.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Andrey Kurkov's war diaries continue: A profound and deeply personal chronicle of life under siege newly updated! In this second volume of his acclaimed war diaries, Ukraine's greatest living writer bears witness to a nation enduring the unendurable. From his home in Kyiv, Kurkov captures the surreal and the life-shattering: children learning algebra in metro stations turned bomb shelters, holidaymakers sunbathing on mined beaches, and farmers sowing fields shadowed by missile strikes. On its eastern borders, Ukrainian citizens are put into 'filtration camps', en route to Russia.or to execution. To the north, Belarusian forces press refugees into service as mine detectors. This is a lived account rich with startling vignettes, dark humour and devastating detail of a country adapting, resisting, surviving. A child downloads movies to a smartphone to watch during nightly power cuts. An elderly Japanese man feeds the hungry in Kharkiv. A soldier carefully rehomes a swarm of bees. A winemaker uses scrap wooden shell crates to package gift sets. A Ukrainian gunner inscribes messages on shells and rockets aimed for Russia: 'For Bakhmut', he writes. The family of a journalist killed in the Donbas sells their home to open a bookshop in his memory. Our Daily War is Kurkov at his most intimate and insightful: a record of resilience, heartbreak and fierce national pride. Urgent, humane, unforgettable, this is history as it happens, and as only Kurkov can write it.PRAISE FOR ANDREY KURKOV'S WAR DIARIES'A vivid, moving and sometimes funny account of the reality of life during Russia's invasion.' Marc Bennetts, The Times 'Thoughtfulness nearly always prevails over anger; the pieces are flawlessly structured; the tone is devoid of self-pity.' Robin Ashenden, Spectator 'Andrey Kurkov [is] one of the most articulate ambassadors to the West for the situation in his homeland.' Sam Leith, Spectator 'A thoughtful and humane memoir by one of Ukraine's most prominent living authors.' Simon Caterson, Sydney Morning Herald 'Kurkov's diaries.make the early days of the war vivid for the reader.Here are the kind of stories you don't see on the television news.' Rachel Cooke, Observer 'It is little wonder.Kurkov, known for his keen eye for the absurdities of life, would pack his diary of the war with fascinating and eccentric details.' Megan Gibson, New Statesman Andrey Kurkov's urgent, humane and unforgettable war diaries continue in a poignant, personal account of life under siege in Ukraine rich with humanity, dark humour, and unforgettable glimpses of resilience amidst devastation.

Paperback. Etat : New. In this third volume of Andrey Kurkov's war diaries, Ukraine's greatest living writer chronicles the third year of the full-scale Russian invasion from his home in Kyiv and from journeys all over the country - capturing moments of horror, resilience, absurdity and grace with an unmatched clarity. Children on a contested border wear hooded bulletproof vests to school; soldiers write haiku; professional clowns go to war; and the mother of a young soldier killed in battle uses his compensation money to create a rehabilitation centre for veterans. Roses bloom across Ukraine in quiet tribute to a florist and soldier killed in Avdiivka, remembered by those who once bought his flowers. In Pokrovsk, 7,500 residents refuse to leave a city that no longer exists - their homes obliterated but their will unbroken. And buried beneath a cherry tree, a murdered writer's final diary is recovered, a haunting echo of a silenced voice. From the home front to the trenches, Kurkov captures the rhythms of survival - the quiet rituals, joys, unexpected humour and appalling losses - in a very moving record of national endurance. Three Years on Fire is a luminous act of remembrance from a writer whose voice stands witness to everything Ukraine has lost - and everything it refuses to give up.…
