Bøger af David Winner

Excerpts from a New England is a perceptive and wry analysis of Gareth Southgate's time as England manager, which included two European Championship finals and a World Cup semi-final. Acclaimed author David Winner cleverly places Southgate's legacy in the context of a period of political, social and cultural upheaval.

While clearing out his great aunt's midtown apartment after her death, author David Winner discovered artifacts of her storied existence: notes from opera stars, love letters and artifacts from the Middle East of the 1930's. His Aunt Dorle had been a co-founder of Angel Records and a prominent figure in the mid-century classical music world. But the more he learned about her world, the more complicated her story became, a twisted puzzle full of love and fascism, a record of a young woman grappling with her attraction to lovers with hair-raising political ties. A powerful work of family discovery, rooted in a bygone Midtown Manhattan and involving artists and politicians from around the world.
