Encyclopedia of Nordic Crime Fiction
Since the late 1960s, the novels of Sjowall and Wahloo's Martin Beck detective series, along with the works of Henning Mankell, Hakan Nesser and Stieg Larsson, have sparked an explosion of Nordic crime fiction--grim police procedurals treating urgent sociopolitical issues affecting the contemporary world. Steeped in noir techniques and viewpoints, many of these novels are reaching international audiences through film and television adaptations. This reference guide introduces the world of Nordic crime fiction to English-speaking readers. Caught between the demands of conscience and societal strictures, the detectives in these stories--like the heroes of Norse mythology--know that they and their world must perish, but fight on regardless of cost. At a time of bleak eventualities, Nordic crime fiction interprets the bitter end as a celebration of the indomitable human spirit.
Borg versus McEnroe
Borg versus McEnroe will be enjoyed by those who have enjoyed the Borg vs McEnroe film, staring Sverir Gudnason and Shia LaBeouf, as well as by those who enjoyed reading Andre Agassi's Open. The 1980 Wimbledon final is acclaimed as the greatest game ever played on the lawns of SW19. Borg was going for a record-breaking fifth consecutive title, McEnroe his first. The focal point became the legendary fourth set tie break which saw Borg waste five match points before McEnroe levelled the contest on his seventh set point. Borg came back to win the final set 8-6 and as he sank to his knees in victory the Centre Court crowd stood as one to applaud both players. This was to prove Borg's last Grand Slam victory over McEnroe and within two years he had retired altogether. This classic sporting event is celebrated with first-hand accounts from players and personalities. The author tells the story of the great rivalry between Borg and McEnroe as they headed towards their climactic showdown and the shift of tennis supremacy that followed.

Det finns många böcker om skrivande. De flesta koncentrerar sig på språket, karaktärerna och dramaturgin, men slutar där den stackars debutanten sitter med sitt färdiga manus och undrar vad han eller hon ska göra nu. Skriv din bok och få den utgiven behandlar skrivande och bokutgivning från ax till limpa. På ett humoristiskt sätt berättar Dag Öhrlund om de misstag han själv begått som författare. I boken förklarar han lättfattligt hur bokbranschen fungerar, vad man ska tänka på när man kontaktar ett förlag, försöker skaffa sig en agent, tolkar ett refuseringsbrev eller förhandlar sig till ett bra avtal för sin bok. Han ger också konkreta, värdefulla råd om hur m...
