The official biography of Top Gear"s tame racing driver from the early years to present day. The Stig is known to millions as " Top Gear"s tame racing driver famed for his skillful driving & his legendary reluctance to speak. Other details of his life are the subject of much speculation yet almost nothing of any substance is known about the man behind the visor. Where did he come from? What is his motivation? Did he really once punch a horse to the ground? Simon du Marche (" Princess Margaret -- Gin & Gentility"; " Keith Chegwin -- Tears of An Idiot") has devoted over two years to getting inside that trademark white helmet. He has pursued The Stig -- sometimes literally -- in a relentless quest to unearth the truth & now at last his findings can be revealed. Through extensive research & in-depth interviews with celebrities motorsport experts & " Top Gear "presenters Jeremy Clarkson Richard Hammond & James May du Marche has built up an unprecedented picture of what lies beneath the white suit. His quest threw up many questions: can Stig-like characters really be seen in the hieroglyphics of ancient Egypt? Was The Stig present at some of the most pivotal moments in history? Why is a driver of The Stigs considerable ability not in Formula 1? Who was the mysterious figure in white seen leaving Angelina Jolies hotel room? How can anyone not understand how stairs work? Happily these questions -- & many many others -- will be answered in Simon du Marches landmark work " The Stig."" ...

Have you ever arrived in a hotel room & been baffled by the information provided? Beware of your luggage. In your room you will find a minibar which is filled with alcoholics. Do not throw urine around. Have you ever been to a restaurant & wondered what on earth to order? Bored Meat Stew Lorry Driver Soup or Kiss Lorraine. Have you ever arrived in an airport & found that the supposedly helpful signs just make you feel more lost? You are required to declare all sorts of private things. Departure. Bus stop. Car rental. Please buy your ticket consciously. Charlie Croker has & in 2006 he gathered together what he thought was the definitive collection of English language howlers for his bestselling book Lost in Translation". But he reckoned without the great British public. Not only was the book a smash hit it also opened the floodgates to a deluge of emails & letters stuffed full of further mistranslations & mutilated phrases. From a leaflet from the Museum of Rasputin in Russia (which is apparently situated in a house that belonged a pilot fish Zubov) to a song title on a pirated Pink Floyd CD (" Come Fartably Numb") the scrambled sentences just kept flooding in. At the same time Charlie has continued his travels & picked up gems of his own. With such a wealth of material a sequel wasnt just a necessity it was a public service & " Still Lost in Translation" is even more addictive whimsical & side-splittingly hilarious than the first book." ...

Like all mothers Emily Rapp had ambitious plans for her first & only child Ronan. He would be smart loyal physically fearless level-headed but fun. He would be good at crossword puzzles like his father. He would be an avid skier like his mother. Rapp would speak to him in foreign languages & give him the best education. But all of these plans changed when Ronan was diagnosed at nine months old with Tay-Sachs disease a rare & always-fatal degenerative disorder. Ronan was not expected to live beyond the age of three; he would be permanently stalled at a developmental level of six months. Rapp & her husband were forced to re-evaluate everything they thought they knew about parenting. They would have to learn to live with their child in the moment; to find happiness in the midst of sorrow; to parent without a future. The Still Point of the Turning World is the story of a mothers journey through grief & beyond it. Rapps response to her sons diagnosis was a belief that she needed to make my world big
- to make sense of her familys situation through art literature philosophy theology & myth. Drawing on a broad range of thinkers & writers from C.S. Lewis to Sylvia Plath Hegel to Mary Shelleys Frankenstein Rapp learns what wisdom there is to be gained from parenting a terminally ill child. In luminous exquisitely moving prose she re-examines our most fundamental assumptions about what it means to be a good parent to be a success & to live a meaningful life.
