Piper at the Gates of Dusk
In New World, there were no secrets. Everyone could hear everyone else's thoughts in a constant, overwhelming Noise. Then a cure came - one that the second generation took from birth. Peace descended, wars ended, communication was silenced.
Until now . . .
Brothers Ben and Max have never really gotten on, each being more like one of their parents - Todd and Viola.
But when something is spotted in the night sky - something that's bringing back dreams of Noise, dreams of terror - the brothers will have to come together.
Danger is coming and the family will be tested like never before.
Důvěřuj mi
Jmenuju se Reed Madden. Na pódiu jsem hvězda a v zákulisí rozbitý člověk. Hudba mě vytáhla z temnoty, ale nikdy mě z ní úplně nevysvobodila. Jedu na plný plyn – nekonečné turné, miliony fanoušků, tlak a minulost, před kterou nemůžu utéct… A pak se objeví ona… Žena, která by neměla patřit do mého světa, a přesto v něm zapálila světlo, o kterém jsem ani nevěděl, že ho postrádám. Já jsem chaos, ona je klid. Její dotek mě uzemňuje, její úsměv mě nutí věřit, že i já si zasloužím víc než jen přechodné chvíle. Ale každý den se znovu probouzím s vědomím, že svět, ve kterém žiju, nakonec pohltí i ji. A láska? Ta nemusí stačit. Jak mám někomu slíbit budoucnost, když sám sebe sotva držím pohromadě?
V zajetí Pradávných
Občas si připadám jako černá kočka, s drápky připravenými vždy k útoku. City? Ty jsem dávno zamkla kdesi v hlubinách svého srdce, protože v mém světě se taková slabost neodpouští. Přála jsem si být nezávislá, jenže teď mě svazuje síla pouta… a já nenávidím, že bolí tak sladce.***Chtěl jsem jen klid, ticho a čas na zhojení starých jizev. Místo toho mi Bohyně předhodila dívku, která by mě nejraději zabila pouhým pohledem – nebo svou vůní. Nebezpečně se mi dostává pod kůži. Ve dne si lezeme na nervy, v noci se vzájemně spalujeme. A někde mezi tou nevraživostí roste něco, co si ani jeden z nás nechce přiznat.
Klíč ke svobodě
Byla jsem uvězněná v manželství, které mělo zlaté mříže a přísná pravidla. Jediné, co mi paradoxně dávalo pocit volnosti, byla má práce zdravotní sestry ve vězení. A právě tam, mezi zdmi plnými zoufalství a utrpení, jsem po setkání s nebezpečným mužem odsouzeným na doživotí pochopila, že i na tom nejtemnějším místě může vzplanout touha po svobodě, po lásce… i po zakázaném doteku.

Pet Shop Boys - Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe - are the most successful duo in the history of pop music. Three-time Brit Award winners and six-time Grammy nominees, they have sold more than 50 million records worldwide, including No. 1 hits such as 'West End girls', 'It's a sin', and 'Always on my mind', and platinum-selling albums Please, Actually, and Very.
Uniquely spanning the worlds of music, art, film, theatre, design, and fashion, Pet Shop Boys have forged an identity as unforgettable as their sound.

Expanding upon Pet Shop Boys Catalogue, published two decades ago, it presents their entire visual output to date, year by year. Sleeve artworks and packaging, stills from every video, film, and performance, stage sets and costume designs, photoshoots, publications, and even Christmas cards all feature, as does every collaboration with luminaries including Mark Farrow, Wolfgang Tillmans, Martin Parr, Bruce Weber, Sam Taylor-Johnson, Derek Jarman, Scott King, Zaha Hadid, Tom Scutt, and Es Devlin.
Concise commentaries by Chris Heath and Philip Hoare provide illuminating insights into the genesis of each project. Hoare's original introduction is accompanied by a new introduction from Libby Sellers who considers the importance of Pet Shop Boys within the history of design, while a new foreword by Jeremy Deller reflects on the enduring impact of their music and image.

. . . AGAIN
Award-winning poet Mark Nowak returns with a harrowing documentation of the expansive landscape of MAGAmerica. Told through five abecedarian prose sections, . . . AGAIN is a photo-text commentary on MAGAism in America. In his sobering voice, Nowak captures the depredations of capitalism, the desensitizing regularity of mass shootings, and the extremism that has fueled white nationalism. From the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic and the January 6 insurrection through Donald Trump’s re-election, Nowak chronicles the transformations as the seasons change around him, attempting to make sense of a bitterly divided nation that elected a polarizing figurehead . . . again.
The Seventh Sister
From the author of The Madness comes a haunting folk horror fable of lost sisters, old gods, and the terrible power of belief left to rot in the woods. After the tragic death of their parents, the seven Ward sisters are sent to live with their grandmother on the remote forest island of Beltane, a place suspended between time and shadow. What begins as an attempt to mend their fractured lives soon twists into a waking nightmare, where grief bleeds into childhood fantasy and ancient rites awaken a dark and eerie devotion to Daudir, the Forgotten God of the Wood. When another cruel tragedy strikes, the sisters are left to fend for themselves, learning to live with death as a constant, lurking presence. The fragile world they’ve carved splinters beneath the weight of isolation, and the forest around them grows restless…Years later, a cryptic letter summons the surviving sisters home. Drawn back into the wild embrace of their dangerous faith, they confront a truth more terrible than memory, and the dreadful secret that waits, silent and sentient, in the depths of the all-seeing trees. This lyrical and haunting folk horror explores how trauma can root itself in the soil of childhood, how love can curdle into obsession, and how gods, especially forgotten ones, never stay buried for long. But at its heart, it’s about sisters: how they fracture, survive, return, and reckon with what they’ve made together.

Self-Portrait as the "i" in Florida
". . . formally various and deliciously propulsive." —Kaveh AkbarA love letter to Miami and a meditation on fatherhood, Self-Portrait as the “i” in Florida paints a vivid picture of contemporary South Florida in all its contradictions and beauty. Selected by Major Jackson as the winner of the Donald Justice Poetry Prize, Cunningham’s second collection weaves together ecological and familial landscapes, capturing both the spectacle—burning sugarcane fields, snake farms, chaotic highways—and the daily rituals that bind a family: school drop-offs, sick days, and small kindnesses. Blending formalist and free verse, the book becomes both an inquiry into belonging and a celebration of the essential everyday moments that define a life. At once panoramic and deeply personal, Cunningham writes with a documentarian’s eye and a father’s heart.

Hybridy a kyborgové mezi přírodou a kulturou
Vratislav Moudr se ve své knize věnuje vztahu přírody a kultury, přičemž vychází z evoluční ontologie Josefa Šmajse, která zdůrazňuje jejich nesourodou povahu. Tuto perspektivu autor textu rozvíjí zavedením konceptu hybridity, jenž umožňuje lépe porozumět strukturám vznikajícím na pomezí těchto dvou řádů. Moudr se zaměřuje nejen na genetické, psychické a ekosystémové hybridy, ale také na roli člověka jako jedinečného hybridu. Člověk pro něj není jen hybridem. Díky transformaci lidské psychiky kulturou, která proniká celou její šíří i hloubkou, ho v textu pojímá jako kyborga. Osobnost člověka je tu chápána jako sociokulturní produkt, kterým kultura člověka disciplinuje a řídí jeho činnost v souladu se svými systémovými zájmy udržovat se v čase a růst.
Kniha představuje nejen pečlivý návrh revize evoluční ontologie, ale zároveň také odpověď na některé výzvy spojené se sociálním konstrukcionalismem. Její autor ukazuje, že zatímco konstrukcionalismus mnohdy rozpouští hranice mezi přírodou a kulturou, přístup evoluční ontologie naopak zdůrazňuje jejich nesourodost a umožňuje uchopit hybridní entity včetně kyborga jako reálné produkty interakce těchto dvou řádů. V souladu s apelem evoluční ontologie kniha volá po zásadní změně směřující k biofilní kultuře, která by respektovala jak konfliktní vztah kultury s přírodou, tak také mimořádné postavení hybridů a člověka v tomto vztahu. Přispívá tak k debatě o udržitelnosti a odpovědnosti za příští generace lidí.
KinnPorsche (Novel) Vol. 6
Ever since the tragic death of his parents, Porsche’s life has been a balancing act between attending college and bartending to support his younger brother and pay off his deadbeat uncle’s gambling debt. When he witnesses a gang of thugs attacking a handsome young man in the alley behind his bar, he’s reluctant to intervene—until he’s offered fifty thousand baht to help the stranger escape. The stranger is known as Kinn, the second son of a notorious crime family. Impressed with Porsche’s fighting skills, Kinn makes a proposition: if Porsche agrees to become his personal bodyguard, his debts will be absolved. Porsche doesn’t want any trouble, especially not the kind of trouble Kinn deals in. But Kinn always gets what he wants. The KinnPorsche novel series, originally written in the Thai language, inspired the wildly popular and internationally acclaimed live-action drama, KinnPorsche: The Series, which Teen Vogue called “a thrilling, lush and gargantuan tale of love and sin” (2022). Seven Seas is releasing the first-ever English edition of the original novels with new internal illustrations, similar to the Chinese-language books in the Seven Seas Danmei label. Recommended for Mature Audiences. The final volume!
