A landmark work of fiction from one of Britain's most exciting new writers: The Harmony Silk Factory is a devastating love story set against the turmoil of mid-twentieth century Malaysia. Set in Malaysia in the 1930s and 40s, with the rumbling of the Second World War in the background and the Japanese about to invade, The Harmony Silk Factory is the story of four people: Johnny, an infamous Chinaman - a salesman, a fraudster, possibly a murderer - whose shop house, The Harmony Silk Factory, he uses as a front for his illegal businesses; Snow Soong, the beautiful daughter of one of the Kinta Valley's most prominent families, who dies giving birth to one of the novel's narrators; Kunichika, a Japanese officer who loves Snow too; and an Englishman, Peter Wormwood, who went to Malaysia like many English but never came back, who also loved Snow to the end of his life. A journey the four of them take into the jungle has a devastating effect on all of them, and brilliantly exposes the cultural tensions of the era. Haunting, highly original, The Harmony Silk Factory is suspenseful to the last page.

Christos Fourkis, Ravin - Buddha-bar By Christos Fourkis & Ravin (Compilation, Limited Edition, Orange) 2LP Нет лучшего способа завершить год, чем теплые, успокаивающие и волшебные звуки Кристоса Фуркиса. Buddha-Bar снова сотрудничает с этим всемирно известным греческим продюсером и диджеем, постоянным гостем музыкальной коллекции Buddha-Bar. Его поэтичный и воздушный почерк, спокойная и прохладная атмосфера в сочетании с позитивной энергией сделали Фуркиса ключевым игроком эгейской лаунж- и чилаута- сцены. Его уникальный стиль идеально сочетается с художественной чувственностью DJ RAVIN, человека, стоящего за компиляциями Buddha-bar уже более 20 лет! Издание на оранжевом виниле. Сборники Buddha-Bar — это культовая серия компиляционных альбомов, выпущенных франшизой бара, ресторана и отеля Buddha-Bar, созданной ресторатором Раймоном Висаном и диджеем и дизайнером интерьеров Клодом Шалле в Париже, Франция. После своего основания Buddha-Bar стал эталоном среди иностранных яппи и богатых туристов, посещающих город, и породил множество подражателей, став популярным отчасти благодаря уникальному выбору диджеями заведения эклектичной, авангардной музыки. Buddha-Bar стал известен на международном уровне благодаря выпуску популярных сборников лаунжа, чилаута и мировой музыки, издаваемых компанией George V Records. Первая компиляция Buddha-Bar появилась в 1999 году.
