Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - ONCE IN A LIFETIME is smart, coming-of-age chick-lit that's not all about the guy, with a vibrant '80s sensibility that contemporary women will love.In 1984, punk is rampant. Andy Warhol rules. And 20-year-old art student Jessica is sick of all the excitement happening without her. Hungry for a life that's just beyond her fingertips, she sets her sights on an avant-garde study abroad program in London she can't afford. Meanwhile, Jess' hometown boyfriend Drew wants to see other people if he's not exciting enough to keep her stateside. Jess and her buddies move to a hip riverside town, trolling new wave clubs and waitressing for tuition money. Then Jess meets Whit, a hot, daredevil guitarist who crawls through her window and makes her head spin. The girls deal with cheating waiters, mystics, a military drag queen, a Svengali bouncer, and the specter of AIDS. Before long, Jess has to decide if the men in her life will leave her as damaged as her cracked-glass mosaic art projects-and whether they'll stand in the way of that dream semester in post-punk London.MULTI AWARD WINNER!

No Binding. Zustand: Good. In Russian. 4 pages, complete. 46 x 31 cm. In acid free Mylar sleeve. Creased, easily remedied. This issue of RUL' is a snapshot of the concerns of the Russian émigré community in mid-1921, when the Russian Civil War was ending but the future of Russia - and of exile life - remained unresolved. Published in Berlin, then the chief center of Russian emigration, the paper maintains a sober liberal-democratic tone aimed at educated readers: former professionals, intellectuals, & political moderates displaced by revolution. The front page is dominated by the regular column, EVENTS OF THE DAY, which surveys international and Russian developments with particular attention to relations between Soviet Russia and Western powers. The editorial rejects Bolshevism but emphasizes that isolation will not resolve Europe's "Russian problem." Instead, the paper argues that economic relations with Russia are unavoidable, even as political recognition remains problematic. The tone reflects growing European fatigue with intervention & blockade. Considerable space is devoted to Russia's internal condition. Reports and commentary describe economic devastation, disorganized administration, food shortages, & industrial paralysis. While condemning Bolshevik policies as destructive and doctrinaire, RUL' stresses that Russia's collapse cannot be explained by ideology alone; it is the outcome of war, revolution, and the systematic uprooting of professional & economic life. The audience is a displaced intelligentsia aware that national recovery cannot occur without legal stability, property rights, and technical expertise. Foreign affairs coverage: correspondents' dispatches and telegrams from Poland, Finland, the Baltic states, Britain, and France. These items trace shifting diplomatic positions, border questions, and commercial negotiations. A recurrent theme is the gradual movement of Western governments from moral condemnation toward reluctant engagement with Soviet authorities, driven by commercial pressures and strategic calculation rather than ideological sympathy. Page 2 includes commentary on the émigré press itself. An article titled THE PRESS addresses the challenges of maintaining independent journalism in exile: financial precarity, factional rivalry, and dependence on foreign environments that do not always share Russian priorities. The discussion reveals anxiety about the long-term survival of a free Russian press abroad and the risk that political exile may devolve into intellectual fragmentation. The middle pages are filled with factual notices and telegrams reporting on provincial fires, economic disruptions, strikes, population movements, and administrative measures inside Russia. Their restrained style reinforces RUL's self-presentation as a reliable chronicle rather than a polemical weapon. These short items collectively convey a sense of exhaustion and instability rather than imminent renewal. The final page shifts focus to Russian life in Berlin, documenting the everyday reality of exile. Cultural listings announce theatrical performances, concerts, and lectures, demonstrating a conscious effort to preserve Russian cultural continuity outside the homeland. Extensive classified advertisements form one of the issue's most historically revealing sections, offering medical services, language instruction, employment, boarding houses, and spa accommodations in German resort towns. Particularly notable is the ADDRESS BUREAU, a service designed to help scattered émigrés locate friends, relatives, and former colleagues. This issue of RUL' embodies a moment of uneasy transition. It reflects neither revolutionary fervor nor monarchist nostalgia, but a liberal, rational attempt to interpret catastrophe, sustain civil discourse, and preserve social networks in exile. The paper records not only political events but the quiet labor of survival by Russians who no longer expected an early return home but had not yet accepted permanence abroad.…

No Binding. Zustand: Poor. In Russian. 6 pages, complete. 46 x 31 cm. Title (Cyrillic): Руль Latin transliteration: Rul' English translation: The Rudder. Daily political newspaper. Issue: № 6. Saturday, 7 January 1917 (Gregorian calendar already in use in the masthead wording). Petrograd. complete; typical 6-page issue. RUL was a liberal-constitutional, anti-extremist daily closely associated with the Constitutional Complete, but: Edge losses and significant chipping, leaves broke into 4 sections; loss in margins (not affecting core text continuity), Browning consistent with wartime paper stock (1916-1917 shortages). Despite wear, all main columns are legible, and the item remains archivally meaningful due to historical date and content. This issue of Rul was published at a decisive historical moment: two months before the February Revolution and less than a year before the paper itself would be suppressed by the Bolsheviks. The issue is dominated by wartime political analysis, front-page reporting, and extended commentaries on Russia's internal instability. Prominent sections address: Voina / War): Detailed battlefield reporting and strategic assessments from multiple fronts. The tone is sober and critical, avoiding the triumphalist rhetoric found in more nationalist papers. Police reports): Civil disturbances, arrests, and public order concerns - indicative of growing unrest in Petrograd. Telegrammy / Telegrams: Rapid updates from domestic and foreign correspondents. (Khronika / Chronicle): Daily political and cultural notes, giving insight into Petrograd intellectual life. A notable characteristic of RUL is its analytical editorial voice. Articles emphasize constitutional reform, ministerial incompetence, food shortages, and bureaucratic paralysis. Several columns reflect concern that continued war combined with governmental stagnation may lead to systemic collapse - a prescient tone in hindsight. The paper also contains extensive advertising for: Literary journals (Russkaya mysl' - Russian Thought); Scientific and cultural periodicals; Theatre programs, subscription offers, and professional services. These advertisements reveal a still-functioning bourgeois reading public in early 1917, just before Russia's civil order disintegrated. Published weeks before the February Revolution; Represents the voice of the liberal opposition shortly before its extinction; Most issues of RUL were suppressed, discarded, or destroyed in 1917-1918. After 1917 Gessen emigrated and RUL was revived in Berlin (1920s) - again under Gessen's leadership. …
