But even in the face of these tragic circumstances, Anna still has plans of her own: 'I'll infiltrate their ranks as a tribute, and then... I'll defeat the man who killed my father.'

Vesmír není dominatrix
Poezie mikulovsko-brněnské básnířky Eli Hondl (nar. 1995) je světem protikladů. Její obraznost dokáže být lyrická a odkouzleně křehká, ale i naštvaně kritická a syrová. Na jedné straně tu „ze dna vraků prorůstají jako choroše / tlamy bílých běluh / písně tumorů samoty“, abychom se jen o chvíli později stali svědky mlčení i výkřiků, jež mají kořeny v hněvu stejně jako v sexu. Jednotlivými básněmi ve sbírce se pak jako jednotící linka táhne tělesnost; ta reflektuje jak tělo vlastní, tak i tělo společenské. A nakonec je tak do dvojí role postaven i jazyk samotný — prostředek, jak zúčtovat sama se sebou: „ideologický jazyk polykej pomalu / vyklovaná rána hnisá božskou / ale třetí oko máš příliš jasné“.

Bít o slam
Jeden z nejstarších žijících českých slamerů se vrací tam, kde vždy byl nejdoma: na scénu, na stránku, do slova. Člobrdan, vlastním jménem Jan Jícha, přináší sbírku, která je provokací, diagnózou i vyznáním lásky k jazyku zároveň. S břitkým humorem a ostrostí, jíž se nelze vyhnout, rozpitvává svět, v němž diktaturu pojebariátu nevystřídal řád ani rozum, nýbrž kapitán Korporán, botoxy a asociální sítě. Jícha je básník, který nesedí tiše. Stojí na jevišti a ptá se nahlas, zda má vůbec smysl bít o slam, když prostor kolem nás hlučí prázdnotou. Sbírka BÍT O SLAM je plná básní (které se čtou jako monology a hrají se jako představení), prokládaných relaxativními pauzami, jež jsou čímkoli, jen ne klidné. Od třídních schůzek přes evropské parlamentace až po zhasínající duše – Jícha nezůstává nic dlužen ani tématu, ani čtenáři, ani sobě. Tenhle muž psal, ještě než to bylo trendy, a píše dál, i když trendy dávno odešly jinam. Přijměte pozvání do světa, kde slovo ještě něco znamená – i když se o to musíte pořádně poprat.

SEDMADVACET LET TICHA A CHLAPEC, KTERÝ BEZE STOPY ZMIZEL…
Ve výkopu leží ostatky zavražděného jedenáctiletého chlapce zabalené do černého pytle. Nadporučík písecké kriminálky Bohumil „Choroš“ Charvát a jeho spolupracovník, beznohý ukrajinský uprchlík Lev Bohdanovyč Koval, vědí, že najít vraha po více než čtvrtstoletí nebude snadné. Zvlášť když na místě, kde pachatel tělo pohřbil, od té doby nezůstal kámen na kameni.
Na přelomu tisíciletí to v místním hudebním klubu Paluba a přilehlém sportovním areálu Spartaku pulzovalo životem. Stovky lidí přicházely a odcházely, aniž by po sobě zanechaly stopu. Choroš se Lvem se musí vrátit zpět do minulosti a krok za krokem vypátrat, kdo z nich mohl mít důvod zabíje
t. Každá další otázka víří bahno a každá odpověď má v sobě kus špíny. Stojí za zločinem hlídač, který po hochově zmizení utekl do Německa? Nebo snad trenér s nepřiznanou zálibou v mladých chlapcích? Pokud Choroš se Lvem neodhalí pachatele včas, pravda se možná ztratí znovu. A už navždy…

The Muqaddimah
Volume one of the classic Islamic history of the world, now available to a new generation of readers in a fully unabridged editionWritten by the great fourteenth-century Arab scholar Ibn Khaldun, The Muqaddimah, or “Introduction,” is the earliest critical study of history. Though intended as the preface and first book of a world history, it is a wholly self-contained work, one that laid the foundations for fields of knowledge ranging from the philosophy of history to sociology and ethnography and has influenced writers such as Frank Herbert, Bruce Chatwin, and Naguib Mahfouz. A three-volume English translation by the eminent Islamicist Franz Rosenthal was first published in 1958 as part of the Bollingen Series, garnering immediate international acclaim. A one-volume abridged version followed in 1969. Now the complete unabridged edition of Rosenthal’s masterful translation is available again in three beautiful volumes, reintroducing this monumental study of history to twenty-first century audiences.

Breaking Free
From social media star and motivational speaker Spencer West, an inspirational guide that shows you how to be the person you were meant to be all along. You might think that the hardest mountain Spencer West had to climb was Mount Kilimanjaro, but as he tells it, the real challenge was learning to overcome the everyday mountains we all face: anxiety, self-doubt, and the pressure to live up to the expectations of others.

With unrelenting candor and unexpected humor, Spencer shares his own experience of listening to his heart and creating a life defined by authenticity, not approval, to help you:· Dig deep and uncover who you were always meant to be· Pursue your passions fearlessly· Embrace the life that you want to live on your own termsThe road to self-discovery is certainly filled with vulnerability, but once you stop seeking permission to be yourself, you’ll find your most powerful and authentic self awaits you on the other side.
Read This to Look Cool
This book won’t fix you, but imagine how cool you’ll look carrying it around…
Maeve Dunigan has poured a lifetime of effort into seeming effortlessly chill. The results have been … mixed. Nonetheless, Maeve still believes she’s one pair of leather pants, one perfect use of the word “bespoke,” and one jar of expensive olives away from self-actualization. She’ll never stop trying, no matter how bespoke things get (was that right?).
With sharp wit and unflinching honesty, Maeve shares her own misadventures?like the time she quietly endured a ruptured appendix at McDonald’s so she wouldn’t come off as dramatic?and explores the universal desire to belong. She invites readers into her world of One Direction fanfiction authorship and passive-aggressive yogurt mind games, detailing the anxieties that come with living in an age of constant visibility.
Both cringe-inducing and uproarious, Read This To Look Cool is a deeply relatable meditation on the absurdity inherent in the constant performance of ourselves, offering a fresh perspective on self-love and the true meaning of cool. It’s a book that says “I see you” and also “Don’t look at me, though, my hair is doing something weird.”
