American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis.

@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya.......

15109444_10155445801109307_4910925246222968399_n.jpg

Patrick Bateman is twenty-six and works on Wall Street, he is handsome, sophisticated, charming and intelligent. 
He is also a psychopath. 
American Psycho is a bleak, bitter, black comedy about a world we all recognize but do not wish to face and it takes us on a head on collision with America's greatest dream and its worst nightmare.

‘A serious, clever and shatteringly effective piece of writing, for its savagely coherent picture of a society lethally addicted to blandness, it should be judged by the highest standards’

'That the book’s contents are shocking is downright undeniable, but just as Bonfire of the Vanities exposed the corruption and greed engendered in eighties politics and high living.
American Psycho examines the mindless preoccupations of the nineties preppy generation’ 
‘Ellis’s book is, ultimately and valuably, a black-hearted satire on the terrible power of money’

The Parasites by Daphne Du Maurier.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya.......
51VzZaDzybL.jpg
 
When people play the game.
Name three or four persons whom you would choose to have with you on a desert island they never choose the Delaneys.
They don't even choose us one by one as individuals, we have earned, not always fairly we consider, the reputation of being difficult guests.
 
Maria, Niall and Celia have grown up in the shadow of their famous parents, their father, a flamboyant singer and their mother, a talented dancer.
Now pursuing their own creative dreams, all three siblings feel an undeniable bond, but it is Maria and Niall who share the secret of their parents' pasts.
 
Alternately comic and poignant, The Parasites is based on the artistic milieu its author knew best, and draws the reader effortlessly into that magical world.

Not Dead and Not For Sale: A Memoir by Scott Weiland.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya.......
41nqgMXDqXL.jpg
 
In the early 1990's, Stone Temple Pilots - not U2, not Nirvana, not Pearl Jam, was the hottest band in the world.
STP toppled such mega bands as Aerosmith and Mötley Crüe on MTV and in the mainstream charts.
Lead singer Scott Weiland became an iconic frontman in the tradition of Mick Jagger, David Bowie and Robert Plant.
Then, when STP imploded, it was Weiland who emerged as the emblem of rock star excess, with his well publicized drug busts and trips to rehab.
Weiland has since made a series of stunning comebacks, fronting the supergroup Velvet Revolver, releasing solo work and most recently, reuniting with Stone Temple Pilots.
He still struggles with the bottle, but he has prevailed as a loving, dedicated father, as well as a business-savvy artist whose well of creativity is far from empty.
 
Weiland's memoir explores his early years as an altar boy, along with his first experiences with sex and drugs.
Weiland discusses his complex relationships with his parents, stepfather, siblings, and the love of his life, Mary Forsberg Weiland. Readers learn the fascinating stories behind his most well known songs and what it was like to be there at the beginning of the grunge phenomenon as Rolling Stone proclaimed on its cover, 'the year that punk broke'.
Not Dead & Not for Sale is a hard rock memoir to be reckoned with a passionate, insightful and at times humorous book that reads with extraordinary narrative force.

Hearts of Stone: Paperback, 2 Jun 2016 by Simon Scarrow.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya.
51Vb4cgdfkL.jpg
 
1938. A perfect summer on the Greek island of Lefkas for three young people untroubled by the simmering politics of Europe.
Peter, visiting from Germany while his father leads an archaeological dig, has become close friends with locals Andreas & Eleni.
As the world slides towards conflict and Peter is forced to leave, they swear to meet again.
 
1943: Andreas & Eleni have joined the partisan forces resisting the German invasion.
Peter has returned now a dangerously well informed enemy intelligence officer.
A friendship formed in peace will turn into a desperate battle between enemies sworn to sacrifice everything for the countries that they love.
 
'Simon Scarrow has done it again, another barnstorming book that speaks not only of the horror of war, but the ultimate heroism and self sacrifice of those caught up in it.
The glory of Simon's books is that they can be read on so many levels, yes, they are thrilling in its truest sense, there are characters we care about deeply and they are under constant threat.
But alongside this are the vignettes of a life clearly viewed, the threads of sharp social observation that set his historical thrillers apart from the greater mass.'

When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops? by George Carlin.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya.........
George_Carlin_-_When_Will_Jesus_Bring_The_Pork_Chops_(cover).jpg
 
Now in paperback, the New York Times bestseller that takes readers on a riotous journey through the mind of one of America's premier comics
 
George Carlin's legendary irreverence and iconoclasm are on full display in When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops? as he vainly scours the American landscape for signs of intelligence in his third national bestseller.
Ranging from his absurdist side (Message from a Cockroach; TV News: The Death of Humpty Dumpty; Tips for Serial Killers) to his unerring ear for American speech (Politician Talk; Societal Cliches; Euphemisms: 13 sections) to his unsparing views on America and its values (War, God, Stuff Like That; Zero Tolerance; Tired of the Handi-crap), Carlin delivers everything that his fans expect, and then adds a few surprises.
 
Carlin on the battle of the sexes:
 
Here's all you have to know about men and women:
 
Women are crazy, men are stupid. And the main reason women are crazy is that men are stupid.

Waterloo: The History of Four Days, Three Armies, and Three Battles; May 10, 2016. by Bernard Cornwell.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya.........
51RHU0+Y8CL.jpg
 
From the bestselling author and master of martial fiction comes the definitive, illustrated history of one of the greatest battles ever fought a riveting nonfiction chronicle published to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Napoleon’s last stand.
 
On June 18, 1815 the armies of France, Britain and Prussia descended upon a quiet valley south of Brussels.
In the previous three days, the French army had beaten the Prussians at Ligny and fought the British to a standstill at Quatre-Bras.
The Allies were in retreat. The little village north of where they turned to fight the French army was called Waterloo.
The blood soaked battle to which it gave its name would become a landmark in European history.
 
In his first work of nonfiction, Bernard Cornwell combines his storytelling skills with a meticulously researched history to give a riveting chronicle of every dramatic moment, from Napoleon’s daring escape from Elba to the smoke and gore of the three battlefields and their aftermath.
Through quotes from the letters and diaries of Emperor Napoleon, the Duke of Wellington, and the ordinary officers and soldiers, he brings to life how it actually felt to fight those famous battles as well as the moments of amazing bravery on both sides that left the actual outcome hanging in the balance until the bitter end.
 
Published to coincide with the battle’s bicentennial in 2015, Waterloo is a tense and gripping story of heroism and tragedy and of the final battle that determined the fate of nineteenth-century Europe.

We Need to Talk About . . . Kevin Bridges by Kevin Bridges
by Kevin Bridges;
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya....
51g8tsbSBDL.jpg
 
The comic autobiography of 2014
 
A comedian's autobiography?
I wonder if he's ever used humour to deflect from his insecurities?
To avoid being bullied?
Is there heartache behind the humour?
I wonder if he's a manic-depressive?
Tears of a clown?
Yes, all of that.
 
Discover the hilarious life story of one of Britain's best loved comedians in Kevin Bridges' brilliant memoir.
 
'First of all, I have never written a book before, you probably haven't either, so there we have it; a connection is established between reader and writer . . .'
 
Aged just 17, Kevin Bridges walked on stage for the first time in a Glasgow comedy club and brought the house down.
He only had a five-minute set but in that short time he discovered that he really could earn a living from making people laugh.
 
Kevin began life as a shy, nerve-ridden school-boy, whose weekly highlights included a cake bombing attack by the local youths. Reaching his teens, he followed his true calling as the class clown, and was soon after arrested for kidnapping Hugh Grant from his local cinema on a quiet Saturday night.
This was a guy going somewhere off the rails seeming most likely.
 
Kevin's trademark social commentary, sharp one-liners and laugh-out loud humour blend with his reflections on his Glaswegian childhood and the journey he's taken to become one of the most-loved comedians of our time.
 
'. . . Hopefully now you'll take this over to the till and I can accompany you for the next wee while.
That's the benefit of book shops, reading the little bit and then deciding if the author deserves to be part of your carefully selected 3 for 2 deal, or part of your plane journey, train journey, your next bath, your next shite.'

by Chris Ryan.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya...
51SK8s6axCL.jpg
 
A migrant boat battles through the rough Mediterranean, its passengers are desperate, starving and scared.
 
They are also being ruthlessly targeted by the SAS.
 
Islamic State militants are smuggling themselves into Europe using these boats.
Only by locating such men before they make it into the UK can the Regiment stop them committing their acts of terror on British soil.
 
When one of these migrants reveals plans for a sickening Christmas Day atrocity in London, SAS operative Danny Black is tasked with infiltrating the most dangerous theatre of war in the world: Islamic State heartland.
There, he and his team must lift a brutal IS commander, the only man who knows all the details of the London attack.
The commander surrounds himself with vicious militants and a harem of sex slaves whom he treats in the most sadistic ways imaginable and his jihadi wife is, if possible, even more abominable than him.
 
As Danny pits himself against the violent thugs of the Islamic State, he learns that it is not just the UK that is under threat.
His very presence on the mission has put at risk the safety of those closest to him and he discovers that there are greater forces at work here, who do not care if the innocent live or die.
 
Now there is nothing Danny will not do, no line he will not cross, to protect his family. Whether that makes him a good soldier or a bad soldier he neither knows nor cares.
Because as he is fast learning, it is sometimes impossible to tell the difference between the two.
 
And as every SAS soldier is trained to understand, the worst threats often come from the most unexpected places...

Trouble at Zero Hour: Complete Zero Hour Trilogy Paperback – 11 Aug 2016; by Rob Lofthouse.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya..
513Mi8MUs5L.jpg
 
Written by a retired British soldier, Trouble at Zero Hour is a breathless and vivid story, dramatizing three of the key Allied operations that turned the tide of the Second World War.
 
6 June, 1944, somewhere over the Normandy coastline: Robbie Stokes sits in a glider, his Bren resting on the floor between his outstretched legs.
The nose lowers and the glider descends rapidly: ten minutes of stomach churning twists and turns until suddenly the call goes up to 'BRACE'. The belly makes contact with the ground and the first Allied troops tumble out into occupied Europe.
 
For new recruit Robbie Stokes it is the beginning of ten months of brutal and relentless conflict that take him from D-Day, via Operation Market Garden and the battle for Arnhem Bridge, to the Rhine Crossing and the final push for victory.
Three operations that change the course of the war and test Robbie Stokes and his band of brothers to their limits.
If they fail, then the Allied invasion fails. They must succeed through their longest days.

Steppen Wolf ; by Hermann Hesse.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya..
41SVDNW+trL.jpg
 
Reader review;
I could not have read this book at a better time, like a lot of American high schoolers in the "fast track" to college, I was feeling way overworked.
I never had time anymore to enjoy nature, good books or anything else, it seemed that my life was school, and nothing else.
On a whim, I picked this up. "Beneath the Wheel," or "Unterm Rad" (auf Deutsch) is the story of a brilliant young man (in the prodigy sense) who is worked to death by those who unconsciously care nothing for him, but to see his advancement.
While I never experienced anything as extreme as Hans, this book really made me question why I was doing what I was doing.
Why was I working myself to death in high school?
Was I learning anything?
Was I growing as a person?
This book is wonderful because Hesse tells the story is such a simple and poetic way; and it is translated marvelously.
Simply a joy to read, I can read it over and over again, so, take heed, reader.
Enjoy this book and spend many an afternoon questioning the merits of forced education; and different systems of learning.
A good technical follow-up is "Teaching As A Subversive Activity." Check it out.

Joe Cahill: A Life in the IRA
by Brendan Anderson & Joe Cahill.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya..
515n81wHOiL.jpg
 
'I was born in a united Ireland,' says Joe Cahill, 'I want to die in a united Ireland.'
Here Cahill gives his full and frank story, of a life spent in prison, on hunger strike, on the run, in safe houses, in action, and latterly in the corridors of power of Washington as the Good Friday Agreement was being negotiated.
He tells of narrowly avoiding execution in 1942; his visit to Colonel Gaddafi to smuggle arms; Bloody Sunday and the burning of the British Embassy in Dublin; the high drama helicopter escape of IRA prisoners from Mountjoy jail.
Cahill's has been an extraordinary journey, his own life mirroring the growth and development of the republican movement through more than sixty years of intense involvement.

Chaos: A Scarpetta Novel November 15, 2016
by Patricia Cornwell.
 
@ Canterbury Tales Bookshop / Book exchange / Cafe, Pattaya......
81suYyBsBHL.jpg
 
Bestselling author Patricia Cornwell returns with the remarkable twenty fourth thriller in her popular high stakes series starring medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta.
 
In the quiet of twilight, on an early autumn day, twenty six year-old Elisa Vandersteel is killed while riding her bicycle along the Charles River.
It appears she was struck by lightning except the weather is perfectly clear with not a cloud in sight.
Dr. Kay Scarpetta, the Cambridge Forensic Center’s director and chief, decides at the scene that this is no accidental Act of God.
 
Her investigation becomes complicated when she begins receiving a flurry of bizarre poems from an anonymous cyberbully who calls himself Tailend Charlie.
Though subsequent lab results support Scarpetta’s conclusions, the threatening messages don’t stop.
When the tenth poem arrives exactly twenty-four hours after Elisa’s death, Scarpetta begins to suspect the harasser is involved and sounds the alarm to her investigative partner Pete Marino and her husband, FBI analyst Benton Wesley.
 
She also enlists the help of her niece, Lucy.
But to Scarpetta’s surprise, tracking the slippery Tail End Charlie is nearly impossible, even for someone as brilliant as her niece.
Also, Lucy cannot explain how this anonymous nemesis could have access to private information.
To make matters worse, a venomous media is whipping the public into a frenzy, questioning the seasoned forensics chief’s judgment and "a quack cause of death on a par with spontaneous combustion."
