Perfumer Holly Bell has a nose for scents and a head for dreams.

Languages : en
Pages : 808
Book Description
Amidst the glittering optimism defining America's post-War period, the great metropolis of New York City is watched over by a legion of costumed superheroes. Half a century later, the heroes are all gone, and New York has collapsed into seemingly irreparable ruin. Throughout the 1950s, superhuman beings with fantastic abilities face off against bizarre enemies and absurd situations in their ongoing fight to uphold justice, defend the innocent, and safeguard the public welfare. In the early 21st century, a group of young superhumans is mentored by the few former heroes that remain, while monstrous gangsters and crazed supervillains battle for control of New York's decrepit husk. This epic saga, spanning two distinct eras, details the exploits of such magnificent champions as the patriotic Star-Spangled Angel, the sorcerer Dr. Obscura, the nigh omnipotent Super-Atomic Man, and the antisocial Urban Ranger, and the incredible adventures they undertake at the height of the Superheroic Age, while simultaneously examining the mystery of their disappearance, and the events that mold the shape of the dystopian New York of today.

Pages : 240
Book Description
SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2020 BOARDMAN TASKER MOUNTAIN LITERATURE PRIZE Bobby Drury left Liverpool after O-levels, knowing he had f***ed them up. Free now, he hitched to Snowdonia. His mum came crying on the phone, 'You've failed them all.' Bobby knew that. 'No, Mum, I've led Vector.' This was Thatcher's lost generation. The slate quarries were walking distance; they'd have a smoke, a party in an abandoned hut, try and climb something. A small culture emerged of punks, nutters, artists and petty thieves, crawling up abandoned rock, then heading to the disco at the Dolbadarn. These were the Slateheads. The people in these interleaving worlds – the punk dole dropout star- climbers; the Victorian quarrymen pioneers; the Welsh-speaking grandson of a ropeman, abseiling in to bolt sport climbs like Orangutang Overhang in the Noughties, Lee and his mates slogging west today – all are polished like nuggets in this 360° view over patience, pride, respect, thrill, movement, the competing claims of home and agency, and above all, a belief in second chances.

Told in the alternating voices of a family who moves from London to New York at the end of the Second World War, Nicholas Delbanco's memoiristic novel is a moving story about how a family of immigrants come to terms with life in America.
