Císař římský
Jaké bylo vládnout a být ovládán ve starověkém Římě?
„Kniha Císař římský se zabývá fakty i smyšlenkami o vládcích starověkého římského světa a pokládá si otázky, co a z jakých důvodů dělali a proč se jejich příběhy vyprávějí tak extravagantním až bulvárním způsobem. Věnuje se také závažným otázkám moci, korupce a konspirací. Stejně tak ale obrací pozornost i ke každodenním praktickým stránkám jejich života. Co a kde jedli? S kým spali? Jak cestovali?
Na stránkách knihy se seznámíme s řadou lidí, kteří sami císaři nebyli a ani se jimi stát nechtěli, ale umožňovali existenci tohoto systému v říši: s opatrnými aristokraty, otroky-kuchaři, přičinlivými tajemníky, dvorními šašky – a dokonce i s lékařem, který léčil jistého mladého prince ze zánětu mandlí.
Přežití římské říše jakožto systému nedává smysl, pakliže mu vládla řada vyšinutých autokratů. Mě zajímá, jak ony příběhy šílenství vznikly a jak se záležitosti říše doopravdy spravovaly, a také obavy obyvatel Říma, že vláda jeho imperátorů sice není až tak zalitá krví (to očekávali), ale že jde o podivnou a znepokojivou dystopii postavenou na podvodech a klamu.“

Heartbreak Geeks
For fans of 10 Things I hate About You and Better Than the Movies
Aliya and Kabir are rivals, willing to do whatever it takes to be top of the class.
At their elite private school, Kabir is basically royalty. He prides himself on being loved by everyone, teachers included.
Everyone except Aliya, the scholarship student. To her, he represents everything she hates. He’s rich, obnoxious and pokes fun at her at every chance he gets.
When forced to pair up during uni applications, their rivalry intensifies. Tensions build and they must confront their complicated history. Though they’d never admit it now, they were once so much more than enemies. As they spend more time together, Aliya begins to let her guard down with him.
Maybe she doesn’t really hate Kabir – and maybe he doesn’t hate her either?
Or perhaps this is just another one of their games…..
