Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Kranich is a newly qualified teacher about to take up his first post. As soon as he arrives at the school he is plunged into a nightmare kafkaesque world which has all the worst features of a totalitarian state. Very soon he finds himself caught between the Eduaction Authority Police, Secret… Security Officers and the CG, the Conspiracy Group, that aims to undermine the school system but only 'verbally, since no one would want to put their own job at risk'. The four pillars of the school system, as the headmaster explains on Kranich's very first day there, are 'fear, misery, pretence and lies'. << In The Staff Room Orths, himself a teacher in his frst post, has written a grotesque satire which is both absurd and extremely funny. << AUTHOR: Markus Orths was born in 1969 and studied philosophy, French and English. He was a teacher for a while before becoming a full-time writer. Orths' reputation is rapidly rising; he has won numerous prizes and awards. A grotesque, absurd satire which is also extremely funny. Kranich is a newly-qualified teacher about to take up his first job. After he arrives at the school, he is plunged into a Kafkaesque environment which has all the worst features of a totalitarian state. The four pillars of the school system, as the headmaster explains on Kranichs very first day there, are: "fear, misery, pretense and lies." Very soon he finds himself caught between the Education Authority Police, Secret Security Officers and the CG, the Conspiracy Group, that aims to undermine the school system — but only verbally, since no one would actually want to put their own job at risk. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Lynn Zapatek limpia las habitaciones del hotel Eden, y lo hace a conciencia. Mientras se deleita revisando cada rincón, despierta en ella una fascinación por los objetos de los huéspedes: libros, neceseres, notas, zapatos, medicamentos Los mira, los huele, los toca, y a través de ellos i…magina la vida de sus dueños. Al principio Lynn es cautelosa, pero cada vez se vuelve más descarada: no sólo investiga la ropa ajena, sino que también se la pone. Un martes, Lynn está en la habitación 303 cuando ya hace tiempo que debería haberse marchado. Oye pasos en el pasillo, la llave se introduce en la cerradura y sólo tiene un escondite: se mete debajo de la cama y pasa la noche allí. A partir de ese día, cada martes vuelve a esconderse en el mismo sitio, desde donde escucha, siente e imagina la vida de los ocupantes de la habitación. La camarera es el intenso retrato de una joven que quiere saber cómo consigue la gente lo que tanto le cuesta a ella: llevar una vida normal. Hay algo de lo que no cabe duda: después de leer La camarera nunca volverás a dormir en un hotel sin mirar debajo de la cama. «Una novela perfecta, honesta e inquietante a la vez Markus Orths convierte el estrecho y polvoriento espacio de debajo de la cama en un paraíso de percepción, en ese espacio infinito donde todo es posible», Frankfurter Rundschau. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
