  • COVID-19 Tourism Impact Update
    COVID-19 Tourism Impact Update Falkland Islands Tourism Sector Information and Guidance Concerning the Impact of COVID-19 No. 7 July 3rd 2020 INTRODUCTION Whilst COVID-19 has impacted every country in the world, it will affect destinations differently, and they will bounce back from this pandemic at different rates. This is becoming increasingly apparent today as Europe keenly opens up to tourism, but visitors from certain countries are not welcome in many destinations. The high rate of COVID-19 cases in Sweden has singled out, and many destinations are not welcoming visitors from the USA or Brazil at the moment. As airlines are slowly getting back into the air, although it will be a while before the number of flights gets even close to the pre-COVID-19 era, destinations are starting to put in place their entry requirements, and over the next two months it will become much clearer for consumers where they can travel and under what conditions. For many destinations that rely on the vast European market, this will be too late to enjoy a profitable tourist season, however it will at least set out the “new normal” for travel and get the industry re-started. The cruise sector is still finding its feet with the large oceangoing vessels still parked up, however there is more hope from the activities of the expedition sector, although not all these have immediate plans to operate. Hurtigruten is one line which is leading the way in the Arctic season and hopes this will prove to destinations it can operate safely.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.
