Volá ma po mene
Boh ťa pozná. Volá ťa po mene. Zamysli sa nad tým – Boh, ktorý drží v rukách všetko, čo existuje, pozná práve teba. Má pre teba jedinečné povolanie a dal ti všetko, čo potrebuješ, aby si ho naplnil/-a. Ale ruku na srdce – ako často na to zabúdaš? Ako často žiješ v pochybnostiach, strachu a pocite, že na to nemáš? Táto kniha je pozvaním ku zmene. Sto zamyslení, ktoré ti otvoria oči pre autoritu a moc, ktorú ti Boh dal. Nie preto, aby si sa cítil/-a lepšie na chvíľu – ale aby si mohol/mohla žiť odvážne, prekonávať prekážky a stať sa tým, kým ťa Boh stvoril. Ježiš nám ukázal, ako na to. V každom slove, ktoré povedal. V každom zázraku, ktorý vykonal. V celom svojom živote nám odhalil Božie srdce, myseľ aj dušu. Je naším vzorom – nie vzdialeným ideálom, ale živou cestou, po ktorej môžeme kráčať. Tieto zamyslenia ti pomôžu: hlbšie pochopiť, aký je Boh a aký/aká si ty v jeho očiach, získať duchovnú múdrosť, ktorá ťa premieňa zvnútra, pripraviť sa na mocné vyznania, zakorenené v Božích prísľuboch. Každé vyznanie v tejto knihe je pravdivé. Je založené na Kristovom diele vykúpenia a potvrdené jeho krvou. Keď ich vyslovuješ s vierou, niečo sa deje – v tebe aj okolo teba. Zastav sa. Čítaj. Rozjímaj. A potom nahlas vyhlasuj, kým si. Pretože slová, ktoré vyslovujeme, majú moc. Slová, ktoré vyslovujeme, oslavujú Boha, a jeho slovo sa k nemu nikdy nevráti bez výsledkov, ktoré ho vyvyšujú (Iz 55, 10–11). Si pripravenýú-á objaviť, kým naozaj si?

Várólista és további felnőttmesék
Kevesen tudják olyan hitelesen megszólaltatni az érzelmeknek azt a sokszínű elegyét, amelyet nap mint nap átélünk, mint Rényi Ádám, a "félperces" novellák immár többkötetes mestere. Hiszen ne is tagadjuk: hol ábrándos vágyakozásba merülünk, amikor a vakvéletlen mellénk sodorja egy utazás közben titkos szerelmünket; hol megrökönyödünk, amikor kiderül, hogy idős barátnőnk nemzetközi összeesküvésnek tulajdonítja a késésünket a cukrászdából; hol kínzó kíváncsiságunk hajt bennünket, hogy meglessük az időnként rejtélyes módon felszívódó házastársunkat; hol elönt bennünket a soha be nem vallott sárga irigység, amikor egy közeli ismerős frissen elnyert díjához kell gratulálni; vagy épp a magányosság csalja ki a könnyünket, ha úgy alakul a karácsony, hogy egyedül sütögetjük a zserbót odahaza. S persze ezeken túl is számos húrt megpendítenek a kötet novellái, amelyek a groteszk futamoktól a lírai darabokon át a vitriolos társadalomkritikáig és a kacagtató jelenetekig úgy tartanak görbe tükröt a mai magyar mindennapok és úgy általában a mai ember elé, hogy közben cseppet sem bántóak, épp ellenkezőleg: az író egyfelől a tőle megszokott vérbeli humorral és sziporkázó mondatokkal szórakoztat, másfelől őszinte és szeretetteljes érzékenységgel formálja meg még leghóbortosabb hőseit is. Cserébe pedig mi, olvasók sem tudjuk nem szívből szeretni ezeket a mélyen emberi történeteket.
Ahová mész, oda megyek
Lengyelország, 1938. A kitüntetett katonatiszt, Johann beleszeret a végzős zsidó orvostanhallgatóba, Rachelbe. Amikor összeházasodnak, mindkét család kitagadja őket. Házasságuk boldog és áldott... ám rövid életű.
Miután a németek megtámadják Lengyelországot, Johann eltűnik. Az egyre erősödő lengyel antiszemitizmusnak kiszolgáltatott Rachel és kislánya, Ilona a varsói gettóba kerül.
Rachel tisztában van vele: lánya megmentésének egyedüli módja, ha kiszökteti őt katolikus sógornőjéhez, Irenához. Irena az életét is hajlandó kockáztatni, hogy megmentsen egy zsidó kisgyereket - de vajon lesz hozzá elég ereje?
Az Ahová mész, oda megyek két csodálatos nő igaz történetén alapul, akiknek sorsát a szeretet és a hit kötötte össze a háború, az üldöztetés és a gyűlölet idejé
Icons
A celebration of the stories behind 100 of the most iconic objects to pass through the doors of one of the world’s most legendary auction houses.
Icons traces the extraordinary heritage of international auction house Sotheby’s through one hundred of the most significant works sold under its banner. With works spanning across history and mediums – from a 67-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex to Maurizio Cattelan's infamous banana – this engaging book offers readers an exclusive glimpse into the journey of each artwork through its arrival in Sotheby’s salesroom. The presentation of these exceptional objects, from some of the most prestigious collections entrusted to Sotheby’s, gives behind-the-scenes access to pivotal moments in art market history.

Select entries also include contextual images – such as the work shown in situ or on the auction floor – as well as immersive quotes from curators, critics in the field and the Sotheby’s specialists who brought them to sale. From rediscoveries, to record-breaking lots and 'white glove' auctions, every object sold through Sotheby’s has a riveting story to tell. Published to coincide with Sotheby’s marquee move back to the Breuer – a landmark of the New York art scene, having previously belonged to the Whitney Museum of American Art, and later the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Frick Collection – Icons highlights the legacy of the auction house through the masterpieces it has had the privilege of stewarding.

Szerelmi bánat esetén találj magadnak egy kamuvőlegényt!
Éppen a Big Ben mellett sétálok el és próbálom feldolgozni magamban a világ legrémesebb szakítását, amikor belerohanok egy jóképű idegenbe.
És „sikeresen” leöntöm a tűzforró kávémmal.
Legnagyobb meglepetésemre az áldozatom nem csupán megbocsájtja nekem, hogy tönkretettem az ingét, de abba is szempillantás alatt beleegyezik, hogy eljátssza a kedvemért életem szerelmét. Merthogy el kell terelnem a sajtó figyelmét legutóbbi szívfájdalmamról.
Egy dologban egyetértünk: semmi sem valós az egészből.
Csakhogy minél tovább színleljük a szerelmet, annál nehezebb tartanom magam a megállapodásunkhoz. És a perzselő pillantásaiból ítélve ő is hasonló problémával küzd.
Végül azonban egy este átlépjük a határt… És kezdem úgy érezni, hogy az álvőlegényem tényleg férjnek való.
Louise Bay USA Today bestsellerszerző romantikus regényében egy jóképű angol orvos és egy híres amerikai popsztár szerelmének lehetünk szemtanúi, az esős, de mindig vibráló Londonban.
A róka árnya 3: Night of the Dragon - A sárkány éjszakája
A róka árnya-trilógia epikus fináléja
Minden elveszett? Jumeko és szedett-vedett csapata Ivagoto vad tengeri szikláihoz vándorol, mert csak ott állíthatják meg a démonmestert, aki meg akarja idézni a Nagy Kami sárkányt – hogy a kívánságával sötétségbe és pusztulásba taszítsa a birodalmat. De ez a különös alakokból álló társaság is tisztában van vele, hogy a gonosz erőit még egyesített képességeik és erejük ellenére is
gyakorlatilag lehetetlen legyőzni.
Ráadásul van még egy játékos a tekercsért folyó harcban: egy olyan valaki, aki figyeli őket, a megfelelő pillanatra vár, és akinek a létezéséről senki nem tudott… egészen mostanáig.
Miközben a sötétség felemelkedik, és a káosz eluralkodik, egy vad kicunénak és komor védelmezőjének a legnagyobb gonosszal kell szembenéznie A róka árnya-trilógia nagyszabású utolsó részében.

Afterlife
Polly Clark’s poetry inhabits a world that is strange, unsettling, and edged with danger. Her debut, Kiss (2000), journeys inward, exploring the self with an unflinching gaze, before Take Me with You (2005) turns outward to question how we connect – with others, with the wider world, with the unknown. In these collections, her characters, both human and animal, speak in many voices, illuminating the moments when we are most alive – and most alone. Farewell My Lovely (2009) grapples with the price of survival, charting the experience of leaving one's life behind and returning as a stranger. By turns moving and darkly comic, these poems examine the ways we cling to who we were, even as certainty dissolves and the past slips beyond reach. This retrospective of her poetry opens with a magical new collection – also called Afterlife – in which there are no physical limits, nothing is stable and the world is distilled to its elements. The traumatic experience of rape transforms a girl into a tiger, and a tiger into a girl; a whale embraces both air and water until forced to inhabit only one by jealous fish. The poems grapple with the inexplicable nature of some experience, suggesting that we are most real in that mysterious space between living and dying. Polly Clark is an award-winning poet and novelist. Her first collection, Kiss, was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation. Her second,Take Me with You, a Poetry Book Society Choice, was shortlisted for the T.S. Eliot Prize.
The Leopard in my House
‘I feel like there’s a leopard in my house, locked in a room. I’ve contacted the leopard authorities and they assure me they are used to dealing with leopards like this, and they have a plan for removing the leopard. It will take a while, though, and once in a while I can hear it growl. And that’s all very reassuring. Even so, several times a day I think to myself: “Hang on, there’s a leopard in my house.”’One morning, while shaving, the comedian Mark Steel noticed that one side of his neck seemed larger than the other.

And so began a journey into the heart of the NHS, as he embarked on the long and uncertain road to cancer recovery via a range of mildly torturous and entirely miraculous treatments. What, if anything, might he learn about himself – and our capacity for coping with life when times get tough – as he becomes part of a club that one in two British people will ultimately joi? frank and funny diary of one man’s rather trying year, this is an unforgettable and uplifting story of getting ill, getting on with it, and getting better.
