Syn medvědího otce
Aby se vyhnul nebezpečí, je muž v lese nucen zabít medvědici. Jejího mláděte je mu však líto, a tak jej vezme domů ke své ženě. Tento akt milosrdenství a lítosti rychle zasáhne do osudu páru, jehož láska je podrobena zkoušce narozením neobvyklého dítěte... Syn medvědího otce, němý grafický román francouzského autora Nicolase Presla, vypráví dojemný příběh o soužití lidí a zvířat. Mimořádně sugestivní a poetický, ale místy také hořký příběh o životě potomka, který není ani člověkem, ani zvířetem, se mění ve fantastickou alegorii, která beze slov hovoří o univerzálních tématech lásky a zklamání, odpuštění a nespravedlnosti, sounáležitosti a odcizení. S přesvědčivým a dovedným vizuálním stylem, který čerpá z umělecké tradice mezi dvěma světovými válkami, autor utkal emocionálně nabité a dramaticky poutavé vyprávění o věčném hledání smyslu a identity.

Even Beyond Death
'The storytelling is so addictive. This is sexy, witty, tense and touching - a terrific achievement' Patrick Gale'Even Beyond Death is a remarkable achievement - passionate, witty, and moving. A smart, spirited and highly original historical novel, written with tremendous flair, humour and compassion' Antonia Hodgson'Prepare to be seduced. Even Beyond Death is a ravishingly flamboyant, risqué delight of a novel. This liaison dangereuse is an exquisite romance - but beware a broken heart' Essie Fox'A feast of a book. Witty and bright. The tonic I needed with an addictive love story at its heart. Readers will be swept away by it' Molly Aitken'Like the wicked child of Fleabag and Les Liaisons Dangereuses. Knowing, hilarious, tragic and lust-filled - a gripping gay love story with a touchingly tender heart beneath the plumed hats and codpieces' Sofka ZinovieffIt is 1657, and 24-year-old Marquis Jehan de Baudelaire - Avignon's most striking and sought-after bachelor - is in desperate need of a wife, an heir, and, most urgently, a new valet. Enter Jonathan Kryk, a vision of breath-taking beauty. Despite his immense wealth and high status, Jehan finds himself ensnared by the rigid constraints of his era and social rank. His longing for the man who tends to him daily, who dresses and bathes him, remains an impossible dream. Spies lurk everywhere - can he trust anyone in his household, even his own family? The ever-watchful eyes of God and the law put him in immense danger. Lavish and steamy, mischievous and dramatic, Even Beyond Death is the story of a man in love. Not for him a history of military battles and political allegiance, royalty and lineage. With the aid of his disapproving scribe, Jehan wishes to record a memoire of love and tenderness: a 'catalogue of desire'. Fiona Melrose's daring new novel is a passionate and heart-wrenching tale of the sacrifices we make for true love.

Get Closer
In his latest collection, Ryan Van Winkle uses photographs to access themes of abandonment, generational incomprehension and the very notion of how we end up where we are. This collection is a poetic photo album. Through these poems, Van Winkle looks at life through a lens – to get closer – to meditate on the anxieties and insecurities of a life. He reckons with how we remember and misremember, and how memories and people can be difficult, and at times painful, to hold on to. In reading this collection it becomes clear that while photographs can be carefully ordered, the emotions and impressions surrounding them cannot.
