Reisverhaal Dreaming of Jupiter | Ted Simon
Reisverhaal Dreaming of Jupiter | Ted Simon
Ted Simon is the author of the classic travel book JUPITER'S TRAVELS. It documents his four-year journey round the world by motorbike, travelling through Europe, Africa, South and North America, and Asia. A number one bestseller in the late 1970s, it is still regarded as one of the greatest motorcycle books - indeed, one of the greatest travel books - ever written. In 2001, at the age of 69, Ted Simon decided to retrace his journey, and DREAMING OF JUPITER is the result. It took him two and a half years - during which time he revisited all the countries he had travelled through in the 1970s. He found much had changed, and he reflects upon the increased poverty, political upheavals, environmental issues and indeed the changes in himself. But ultimately, DREAMING OF JUPITER is a hugely inspiring read with a positive message at its heart - that even at the age of 70 you can still set off on an adventure, and be surprised and excited by what life throws at you along the way. *'Gloriously …

Dead by Daylight Vinyl Figure The Hillbilly 11 cm
'A most terrible man to behold'The sound of a chainsaw is not a nice one, especially when it is followed by a blood-curdling scream from the Hillbilly! At 4.4 inches tall, this killer means business as he lumbers forward menacingly with his body leaning to the left and dragging a bloody chainsaw across the ground. While in his right hand, he holds a heavy hammer threateningly as his white tank top is torn and bloody over grey jeans and black boots. With his mutilated face stretching back in grotesque bulges to meet the sharp black hair at the back of his head, thick grey staples across his forehead hold it together. The exterior of his packaging sees him lurking through the deep thicket. While the interior is a black silhouetted forest with a glowing red and blue haze and the white 'Dead by Daylight' logo at its back, this grim motif then continues onto the protective sleeve with dark trees surrounding it completely as their figure can be seen through the large clear window at its fron…

With his muscular body visible through a tight red and white outfit and blood streaking across a stern chiseled face, his long cape flows behind him as a panicked, powerless and beaten Invincible holds his hands up in vain, unable to do anything to stop the ongoing massacre as blood smears his blue, yellow and black body and around the shattered right eye of his mask.

Productomschrijving

A young boy from the housing estates comes across a copse of old oaks to which he can escape, as to an oasis of calm. Although he may forget about it once he becomes an adult and "puts aside the things of childhood," it will remain a locus of balance, decades later, for a single mother struggling with the difficulties of raising the child she loves. A husband, on the lip of an ugly divorce, drives across town in the middle of the night to rescue his wife, abandoned by her lover, and then - as she falls asleep in the car - takes the long way home, to prolong a moment such as he has not experienced in years. An elderly doctor, self-diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, makes use of the few precious moments of consciousness granted him each morning to pass on to his grandson what he has learned about life and living responsibly. Loss, and permanence, the ephemeral and the eternal, are common themes of Jan Balabán's collection of short stories Maybe We're Leaving, presented here in the
