MINI: The True and Secret History of the Making of a Motor Car - Simon Garfield - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

MINI: The True and Secret History of the Making of a Motor Car - Simon Garfield - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

In 1959, the first Mini was produced on an assembly line at Cowley, near Oxford. It would take a team of supremely talented designers, engineers and production-line workers to build a car that was unique in appearance and construction. They would clash over an uncomfortable and unsafe prototype, and the public had to be convinced to buy a car that let in water when it rained. But somehow the Mini became an icon. Designed for austerity and efficiency, the car came to represent individuality and classlessness.Today, the car is still produced at Cowley - it is now owned by BMW and called the MINI. A great British manufacturing story, it is more popular throughout the world than it has ever been, a symbol of the age that created it. But who makes these things, and what do they think about their work? By meeting the people behind the MINI, Simon Garfield uncovers a fascinating story of endeavour, ingenuity and masterful marketing. The modern MINI has come a long way from the leaky floor and sliding windows. But throughout its history, the people behind it have always known that they have been making something rare - a car with soul.

He demonstrates that the best way to show weight is to be aware of it, conscious of it, and think about it all the time - knowing where the weight is coming from, where it’s traveling over and where it’s transferring to.

Guardian ''Startlingly original.'' VOGUE ''Extraordinary.'' New Yorker little scratch tells the story of a day in the life of an unnamed young woman. She wakes up, goes to work.

Craeft - Alexander Langlands - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

In a period of meaningless mass manufacturing, our growing appetite for hand-made objects, artisan food, and craft beverages reveals our deep cravings for tradition and quality. But there was a time when craft meant something very different; the Old English word cræft possessed an almost indefinable sense of knowledge, wisdom, and power. In this fascinating book, historian and popular broadcaster Alex Langlands goes in search of the mysterious lost meaning of cræft . Through a vibrant series of mini-histories, told with his trademark energy and charm, Langlands resurrects the ancient craftspeople who fused exquisite skill with back-breaking labour—and passionately defends the renewed importance of cræft today.

It is, as Mr Phillips comes to realise, the first day of the rest of his life - whether he wants it to be or not. All this is both better and worse than being at work.

The Perfect 10 - Richard Williams - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

The Perfect 10 - Richard Williams - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Puskas of Hungary in the ''50s; Pele of Brazil and Gianni Rivera of Italy in the ''60s; Platini of France in the ''70s; Diego Maradona of Argentina in the ''80s; Baggio and Zidane in the ''90s. The most magical. supremely talented footballers of the post-war period have all worn the Number 10 shirt. Puskas presided over the regal Real Madrid side that won five consecutive European Cups between 1955 and 1960 and like his fellow number 10s in the football hall of fame and infamy, shares the uncanny ability to transcend the role of mere ''player''. The terms ''inside forward'', ''playmaker'' or fantasista fail to capture the instinct for genius that characterises all great Number 10s. In ten mini-biographical essays on some of the greatest players the world has ever seen Richard Williams explores the astonishing creative influence of the most celebrated players to wear the shirt and recreates some of the most memorable moments witnessed on a football field.

Killing Time - Alan Bennett - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Killing Time - Alan Bennett - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER. Killing Time is a wonderful surprise gift from Alan Bennett – a new story, set in a home for the elderly; a glorious, darkly comic treat. ''A mini-masterpiece.'' THE TIMES''Full of wit and style.'' OBSERVER ''A terrific cast of characters, and secrets and chaos aplenty.'' iNEWS ''A geriatric Lord of the Flies .'' SPECTATOR We have a choir and on special occasions a glass of dry sherry. It’s less of a home and more of a club and very much a community. Presided over by the lofty Mrs McBryde, Hill Topp House is a superior council home for the elderly. Among the unforgettable cast of staff and residents there’s Mr Peckover the deluded archaeologist, Phyllis the knitter, Mr Cresswell the ex-cruise ship hairdresser, the enterprising Mrs Foss and Mr Jimson the chiropodist. Covid is the cause of fatalities and the source of darkly comic confusion, but it’s also the key to liberation. As staff are hospitalised, protocol breaks down. Miss Rathbone reveals a lifelong secret, and the surviving residents seize their moment, arthritis allowing, to scamper freely in the warmth of the summer sun. ‘Violet? She’ll be having a little lie-down,’ said Mrs McBryde. ‘She likes to give her pacemaker a rest. I’ll rout her out.’ Killing Time was a Sunday Times bestseller w/e 09/11/2024 to w/e 28/12/2024.
