Most often translated as "Fire", Ka represents energy and power. It is also symbolic of passion, intention, and spirit. Our perspective shapes our interpretation of reality, and quite often we innately sense that our interpretation of this reality is in direct conflict or opposition to what we fundamentally know is the correct path or more importantly the truth. Ka presents readers with the opportunity to witness an individual's attempt to find meaning, purpose, and perspective in an unusual series of circumstances and events.
Inna Goff izvestna ne tolko kak prozaik, no i kak poet, i prezhde vsego kak avtor vsem izvestnykh pesen "Russkoe pole", "Ja ulybajus tebe", "Avgust", "Kogda razljubish ty", "I menja pozhalej", kotorye ispolnjali Mark Bernes, Majja Kristalinskaja, Iosif Kobzon, Anna German. Ee proza - proza poeta: obraznaja, chuvstvennaja, lirichnaja. Proizvedenija Inny Goff ochen raznye: vospominanija o junosti i voennom vremeni, rasskazy-issledovanija o zhizni i tvorchestve pisatelej, impressionisticheskie zametki i rasskazy-puteshestvija o poezdkakh v Italiju, Kareliju, Podmoskove. Geroi etoj knigi zhili bolee poluveka nazad, no nadejalis i ljubili, razocharovyvalis i prodolzhali verit - tak zhe, kak i my segodnja. Mat tolko chto vernuvshegosja iz armii syna okazyvaetsja ne gotova k tomu, chto ee syn davno vyros i khochet zhenitsja, i pytaetsja vsemi silami razvesti moloduju paru. Devochka pod diktovku tetki pishet neznakomoj zhenschine, prislavshej ee ottsu pismo, kak schastlivo zhivut ee roditeli, dazhe ne podozrevaja, chem obernetsja eta tajnaja vykhodka. Opytnyj vrach, nedavno uznavshij, chto tjazhelo bolen, ne mozhet podelitsja plokhoj novostju s zhenoj i dochkoj, no myslenno pishet pisma proschanija svoej davnej ljubvi, kotorye ona nikogda ne prochtet. Semejnaja para gotovit stol, chtoby vstretit starogo druga i ego "sovsem novuju" zhenu, no vsjo esche pomnit, kak vse oni byli druzhny s ego "pervoj", Marishej, i pridirchivo sravnivajut.
Few modern British sportsmen have fascinated the public more than Geoff Boycott. In this first comprehensive and balanced account of Boycott’s life – fully updated to include his battle against cancer – award-winning author Leo McKinstry lifts the lid on one of cricket’s great enigmatic characters. A record-breaking Test cricketer and acerbic commentator, Geoff Boycott has never been far away from controversy during his long career in the game. Based on meticulous research and interviews with a host of players, Test captains, officials, broadcasters, friends and enemies, this definitive biography cuts through the Boycott myth to expose the truth about this charismatic, single-minded and often exasperating personality. What was Boycott like as a schoolboy? How did his England cricket colleagues such as Graham Gooch, Dennis Amiss and Brian Close feel about him as a person? Why was he so unpopular in his early career for Yorkshire? And what is the real truth about the relationships that soured his private world? From his upbringing as a miner’s son in a Yorkshire village, through highlights like his hundredth century at Headingley against Australia, to the low points such as the damaging court case in France, this warts-and-all account of his life makes for captivating reading.

Bristol Rovers’ most famous player is undoubtedly Geoff Bradford. He holds the club record for goals scored (242 in 461 Football League appearances) and remains the only player to win a Full England International cap while with the club. To research this book, the authors have been given access to an archive of information and original photographs from his family. Bristol-born Geoff was a loyal one-club man having turned down the option of a transfer to First Division Liverpool. He suffered two very severe career-threatening knee injuries and returned to play football for his club, who rewarded him with a Testimonial match at the end of his fifteenth season. Besides representing England, he also won other honours for Rovers winning the Third Division (South) Championship in 1952/53 and also played in many representative matches for the English Football Association including a six-week tour to the West Indies in 1955. There has never been a biography of Bradford, so this will be a welcome title for all dedicated Rovers fans.
