Audio Book (CD). Condition: Good. Unabridged. Product DescriptionOne of the most fascinating, unreliable narrators youll read this year, for fans of The Talented Mr. Ripley and Rules of Civility.It is 1923. Rose Baker is a typist in the New York City Police Department on the lower east side. Confessions are her job. The criminals admit to their crimes, and like a high priestess, Rose records their every word. Often she is the only woman present. And while she may hear about shootings, knifings, and crimes of passion, as soon as she leaves that room she is once again the weaker sex, best suited for making coffee.It is a new era for women, and New York City is a confusing time for Rose. Gone are the Victorian standards of what is acceptable. Now women bob their hair short like men, they smoke, they go to speakeasies. But prudish Rose is stuck in the fading light of yesteryear, searching for the nurturing companionship that eluded her childhood and clinging to the Victorian ideal of sisterhood.But when glamorous Odalie, a new girl, joins the typing pool, despite her best intentions Rose falls under Odalies spell. As the two women navigate between the sparkling underworld of speakeasies by night, and their work at the station by day, Rose is drawn fully into Odalies high stakes world and her fascination with Odalie turns into an obsession from which she may never recover.ReviewLA Public Librarys Best Fiction of the year:It's The Great Gatsby meets The Talented Mr. Ripley in this psychological thriller by first-time author Rindell."Best for those who can't get enough of The Great Gatsbyand the Roaring Twenties. . . . This thrilling page-turner cinematically captures the opulence-and sordidness-of the Prohibition Era in New York." -Shape.comTake a dollop of Alfred Hitchcock, a dollop of Patricia Highsmith, throw in some Great Gatsby flourishes, and the result is Rindells debut, a pitch-black comedy about a police stenographer accused of murder in 1920s Manhattan. . . . A deliciously addictive, cinematically influenced page-turner, both comic and provocative. -Kirkus Reviews, starred review"Read The Other Typist. Set in the jazzy 1920s, this super-eerie page-turner about obsession is a striking debut for author Suzanne Rindell." -ELLE (Canada)"[A] superb debut novel . . . the more we read, the closer we are drawn to the edge of our seat, such is the pull of this fiendishly crafty psychological thriller. . . . The period detail is excellent. . . . Rindell handles the suspense with aplomb. . . . It is not every first novel that can successfully evoke a lost era or recall the cruel machinations and tortuous entanglements of Patricia Highsmith's fiction. But Rindell has done just that. . . . We find ourselves not recoiling but succumbing, even more entranced, and hang on rapt all the way until her last dramatic act." -Minneapolis Star Tribune"[F]rom the first page [I] was absorbed: I haven't been able to put it down . . . reminds me at points of Notes on a Scandal and Patricia Highsmith, but has creepy charms all its own." -Sadie Stein, The Paris Review"[A] thrilling story set in glamorous, Prohibition-era Manhattan." -Reader's Digest"Rindell's debut is a cinematic page-turner." -Publishers Weekly"It's a riveting ride."-NPR.orgThe suspenseful story will keep you guessing. -Bookpage"Revealing that there is a murderous twist in Suzanne Rindell's spellbinder isn't a spoiler but an essential for enjoying the exhilirating buildup." -Daily CandyWith hints toward The Great Gatsby, Rindells novel aspires to recreate Prohibition-era New York City, both its opulence and its squalid underbelly. She captures it quite well, while at the same time spinning a delicate and suspenseful narrative about false friendship, obsession, and life for single women in New York during Prohibition. -Booklist"Fans of Patricia Highsmiths The Talented Mr. Ripley are sure to love Rindells debut novel." -Library Journal"The Other Typist is a thrilling riff on.

Softcover. Condition: New. John Berger broke new ground with his penetrating writings on life, art and how we see the world around us. Here he explores how the ancient relationship between man and nature has been broken in the modern consumer age, with the animals that used to be at the centre of our existence now marginalized and reduced to spectacle. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.
