The world has watched Prince William and Prince Harry since they were born. Raised by Princess Diana to be the closest of brothers, how have the boy princes grown into very different, now distanced men? From royal insider, biographer and historian Robert Lacey, this book reveals the untold details of William and Harry's closeness and estrangement, asking what happens when two sons are raised for vastly different futures - one burdened with the responsibility of one day becoming king, the other with the knowledge that he will always remain spare. How have William and Harry both agreed and diverged in their views of what a modern royal owes to their country? Were the seeds of damage sowed by Prince Charles and Princess Diana as their marriage unraveled for all the world to see?In the previous generation, how have Prince Charles and Prince Andrew's own relations strained under the Crown? What role has Queen Elizabeth II played in marshalling her feuding heirs? What parts have Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle played in helping their husbands to choose their differing paths? And what is the real, unvarnished story behind Harry and Meghan's dramatic departure? In the most intimate vision yet of life behind closed doors, with its highs, lows and discretions all laid out, this is a journey into royal life as never offered before.

En sann beretning om en families fall fra et høyborgerlig liv på Wiens solside til dødsleiren Ausschwitz. Søndag 26. februar var 17 år gamle George Klaar på ball med sin venninne Lisl i Wiener Konserthus. Han tilhørte en stolt, ledende østerriksk familie. Men de var også jøder. Bare to uker senere kom Anschluss. Familien var så godt som dømt til døden ved folkemord."På en presis og sjarmerende måte formidler George Clare den verden Vest-Europas jøder i nesten et århundre trodde de levde i." New York Times "En dypt bevegende bok. Jeg følte meg beriket og takknemlig etter å ha lest den." John le Carré

Dungeon Play: Or the Life and Times of George of Clarence After His Untimely End

The three main characters in Dungeon Play or the life and times of George of Clarence after his Untimely End are George, Duke of Clarence; Richard, Duke of Gloucester; and their brother, Edward IV. The entire action of the play takes place in a dungeon beneath the Tower of London between the years 1478 to 1485.A fourth character; George, Duke of Bedlam (a madman) is the dungeon's sole occupant. And there is also a somewhat smaller role for a female. Lady Jane Shore, who was the mistress to both Edward and his political cronies.The story of the play opens when George is thrown into this cell by Edward on charges of treason. History suggests that George was sealed in a tun of Malsby wine for his offenses and that the task of executing that sentence fell to the then constable of England, Richard of Gloucester. William Shakespeare made much of Richard's callous mistreatment of his brother, but in truth, Richard more probably pleaded with Edward to spare George's life. In my world, Richard does not see to George's execution but rather deceives Edward (and history) by sealing George in the prison keep instead. The slow reveal of the play is that George of Bedlam and George of Clarence are not cellmates but rather one and the same person and that the entire play is the remembrances of a poor George gone mad. In this world, time is malleable and months and years can skip by in a heartbeat (or in this case, 3 acts). The play ends with mad George left quite alone and forgotten with only the ghosts of his brothers (Richard and Edward) for companionship.

On Saturday 26 February, 1938, seventeen-year-old Georg Klaar took his girlfriend Lisl to his first ball at the Konzerthaus. His family were proudly Austrian. They were also Jewish. Just two weeks later came the Anschluss. A family had been condemned to death by genocide. This new edition of George Clare's incredibly affecting account of Nazi brutality towards the Jews includes a previously unpublished post-war letter from his Uncle to a friend who had escaped to Scotland. This moving epistle passes on the news of those who had survived and the many who had been arrested, deported, murdered or left to die in concentration camps, and those who had been orphaned or lost their partners or children. It forms a devastating epilogue to what has been hailed as a classic of holocaust literature. 'A work of literary genius' Michael Burleigh 'A deeply moving book. I felt enriched and grateful after reading it' John le Carré 'Told with calm and dignity. I shall not forget the mother and father' Rumer Godden 'Admirable, combining very cleverly the historical and personal' Graham Greene 'There have been many moving stories of Jewish persecution but none more overwhelming than this' Lord Langford 'Mr Clare leads us gently, but inexorably, to the edge of the pit and then leaves us to look down into it' Edward Crankshaw, Observer 'This poignant memoir is written from the heart ... the truest defence against political hatreds for the future' David Pryce-Jones, Financial Times

George Gissing - Isabel Clarendon - Volume I: "Nowhere is the English genius of domesticity more notably evident than in the festival of afternoon tea
George Robert Gissing was born on November 22nd, 1857 in Wakefield, Yorkshire. He was educated at Back Lane School in Wakefield. Gissing loved school. He was enthusiastic with a thirst for learning and always diligent. By the age of ten he was reading Dickens, a lifelong hero.In 1872 Gissing won a scholarship to Owens College. Whilst there Gissing worked hard but remained solitary. Unfortunately, he had run short of funds and stole from his fellow students. He was arrested, prosecuted, found guilty, expelled and sentenced to a month's hard labour in 1876. On release he decided to start over. In September 1876 he travelled to the United States. Here he wrote short stories for the Chicago Tribune and other newspapers. On his return home he was ready for novels. Gissing self-published his first novel but it failed to sell. His second was acquired but never published. His writing career was static. Something had to change. And it did.By 1884 The Unclassed was published. Now everything he wrote was published. Both Isabel Clarendon and Demos appeared in 1886. He mined the lives of the working class as diligently as any capitalist.In 1889 Gissing used the proceeds from the sale of The Nether World to go to Italy. This trip formed the basis for his 1890 work The Emancipated.Gissing's works began to command higher payments. New Grub Street (1891) brought a fee of 250. Short stories followed and in 1895, three novellas were published; Eve's Ransom, The Paying Guest and Sleeping Fires. Gissing was careful to keep up with the changing attitudes of his audience. Unfortunately, he was also diagnosed as suffering from emphysema. The last years of his life were spent as a semi-invalid in France but he continued to write. 1899; The Crown of Life. Our Friend the Charlatan appeared in 1901, followed two years later by The Private Papers of Henry Ryecroft.George Robert Gissing died aged 46 on December 28th, 1903 after catching a chill on a winter walk.
