S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Agyar
A stalker életében egyszer eljön az a pillanat, amikor már nem is tudja, miért megy a Zónába. Úgy vonzódik hozzá, mint gyermek az anyjához, mint vadállat az itatóhoz, mint virág a naphoz. Nem tudja, mit eredményez az útja, csak azt, hogy kezével rejtélyeket és szentségeket fog kiszakítani a Zóna méhéből.
Néhány év után a stalker függővé válik. Nem élhet a Zóna nélkül. Nem tud meglenni a halálos kockázat nélkül, az őt körülvevő csend nélkül, a feje fölötti bágyadt napfény nélkül. Próbáld meg fél évre bezárni a négy fal közé, és megtapasztalhatod, milyen a stalker a Zóna nélkül.
Pedig folyamatos küzdelem az élete: ki a fogát hagyja ott, ki csak valamelyik testrészét. Stalker volt, de most nyomorék, aki már nem mehet a Zónába. Végzete arra ítélte, hogy ott éljen a közelében, hallja hívását, lássa, ahogy szerencsésebb bajtársai elmennek és visszatérnek, s meghaljon a vágytól, mely már soha sem válhat valóra.
A legtöbb stalker életében eljön a végső összecsapás ideje is, amikor határoznia kell: boldogan hal meg a csatában, vagy életben marad, emberi roncsként. Ez egy nagyon fontos döntés, mindenki a saját képességei szerint hozza meg: megtáncoltatni ellenségeit egy halálos forgatagban, és egyesülni velük a Zóna időtlenségében, vagy feladni egy részt saját belső világából, és megmenteni azt, ami ezután már alig ér valamit: az életét.
Az igazi stalker megérzi, amikor eljön a végső csata ideje. És ezt mindenki másképp éli meg. De ha felfogtad, ha megragadtad, ha beléd ivódott, akkor neked már semmit sem kell elmagyarázni. Az utolsó pillanat, átitatva a csata gyönyörűségével - mi lehet ennél szebb?

Master Pints Close-up
Is a work of art still a work of art if it exists in several hundred identical examples? This illuminating introduction to masterpieces of printmaking reveals why prints can be considered to be every bit as original as any other visual art form. Offering a fresh look at printmaking, this stunningly illustrated book explores through magnified details the subtle differences in texture, shading, line, tone and colour that an artist can achieve in engravings, etchings, lithography and screen printing. The book discusses forty-five individual prints to highlight the genius of major historical and contemporary printmakers such as Durer, Rembrandt, Goya, Cezanne, Edward Hopper and Chuck Close. "Master Prints Close-Up" also includes a glossary of printmaking techniques, together with indicators for recognising them.

Misere
The coming of the Industrial Revolution in the early 19th century witnessed unprecedented changes in society: rapid economic progress went hand-in-hand with appalling working conditions, displacement, squalor and destitution for those at the bottom of the social scale. These new circumstances presented a challenge to contemporary image-makers, who wished to capture the effects of hunger, poverty and alienation in Britain, Ireland and France in the era before documentary photography. In this groundbreaking book, the eminent art historian Linda Nochlin examines the styles and expressive strategies that were used by artists and illustrators to capture this misere, roughly characterized as poverty that afflicts both body and soul. She investigates images of the Irish Famine in the period 1846–51; the gendered representation of misery, particularly of poor women and prostitutes; and the work of three very different artists: Théodore Géricault, Gustave Courbet and the less wellknown Fernand Pelez. The artists’ desire to depict the poor and the outcast accurately and convincingly is still a pertinent issue, though now, as Nochlin observes, the question has a moral and ethical dimension – does the documentary style belittle its subjects and degrade their condition?

Rooster Bar
#1 New York Times bestselling author John Grisham's newest legal thriller takes you inside a law firm that's on shaky ground.
Mark, Todd, and Zola came to law school to change the world, to make it a better place. But now, as third-year students, these close friends realize they have been duped. They all borrowed heavily to attend a third-tier, for-profit law school so mediocre that its graduates rarely pass the bar exam, let alone get good jobs. And when they learn that their school is one of a chain owned by a shady New York hedge-fund operator who also happens to own a bank specializing in student loans, the three know they have been caught up in The Great Law School Scam.
But maybe there's a way out. Maybe there's a way to escape their crushing debt, expose the bank and the scam, and make a few bucks in the process. But to do so, they would first have to quit school. And leaving law school a few short months before graduation would be completely crazy, right? Well, yes and no . . .
Pull up a stool, grab a cold one, and get ready to spend some time at The Rooster Bar.

Ojos de fuego
Charlie es un niña rubia, de ojos azules, educada y cariñosa. Pero también es piroquinética. Sí, puede encender fuego a distancia, desde inofensivas fogatas hasta hogueras voraces. Y si posee estas capacidades a los siete años, horroriza pensar en sus poderes destructores cuando sea adulta. Aunque, la verdad, tiene pocas probabilidades de llegar a la edad adulta. Porque el servicio secreto norteamericano encargado de realizar investigaciones científicas y paracientíficas para su aplicación militar ha decidido estudiar a Charlie y luego eliminarla, tal como estudió y eliminó a sus padres después de haberlos utilizado en sus experimentos... «King ha creado una pequeña joya.» Chicago Tribune

A lány, akit élve ástak el
Az Ördögkatlannak nevezett vörös szoba szörnyű kínok és halálsikolyok színhelye. Vérbrigádnak hívják magukat, és a saját otthonukból rabolnak el nőket, hogy aztán az internet legmélyebb bugyrában, a hírhedt dark neten keresztül tegyék közzé a haláltusájukról készült videókat.
A félholt lányt, egy félig megnyúzott nő holttestével együtt egy hajléktalan férfi kaparja ki a sáros földből. A lány a nevén kívül semmi másra nem emlékszik, és napjait egy szanatóriumban tölti az emlékeiért küzdve, miközben próbál megbarátkozni nőiességében megcsonkított testének látványával. Zorának hívják. Ő a Vérbrigád rémtetteinek egyetlen túlélője. Miután Zora kiléte napvilágra kerül, a nyomozást vezető rendőrtiszt, felismerve a lányt fenyegető életveszélyt, egy régi barátját hívja segítségül abban bízva, hogy ő képes lesz megtalálni és megállítani a Vérbrigádot.
Huszti Nimród visszavonultan él egy aprócska faluban, ahol ideje nagy részét sorsukra hagyott macskák és kutyák megmentésével tölti. Ugyan reflexei megkoptak, és a múlt démonaival is meg kell küzdenie, de a férfi teste és elméje még birtokolja azt a különleges tudást, amit két évtizeden keresztül a nemzet érdekében vívott titkos háborúkban tökéletesített. Viszont mindarra, amivel szemben találja magát, még ő sincs felkészülve.
John Cure legújabb regénye egy vérbeli, hátborzongató thriller, ami egyben a Medúza-krónikák felkavaróan izgalmas és sokkoló nyitánya.

Noir
Due to the technological advances of the nineteenth century, an abundance of black drawing media exploded onto the market. Charcoal, conte crayon, and fabricated black chalks and crayons; fixatives; various papers; and many lifting devices gave rise to an unprecedented amount of experimentation. Indeed, innovation became the rule, as artists developed their own unique-and often experimental-processes. The exploration of black media in drawing is inextricably bound up with the exploration of black in prints, and this volume presents an integrated study that rises above specialization in one over the other. This richly illustrated catalogue brings together such diverse artists as Francisco de Goya, Maxime Lalanne, Gustave Courbet, Odilon Redon, and Georges Seurat and explores their inventive works on paper. Sidelining labels like "conservative" or "avant-garde," the essays in this book employ all the tools that art history and modern conservation have given us, inviting the reader to look more broadly at the artists' methods and materials. This volume accompanies an exhibition of the same name on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum from February 9 to May 15, 2016.

African American Folktales
These tales range from the earthy comedy of tricksters to stories explaining how the world was created and (fairly or unfairly) got to be the way it is to moral fables that tell of encounters between masters and slaves. They include stories set down in travelers' reports and plantation journals from the early nineteenth century, tales gathered by collectors such as Joel Chandler Harris and Zora Neale Hurston, and narratives tape-recorded by Roger Abrahams himself during extensive expeditions throughout the American South and the Caribbean. These elaborate, often exaggerated fictions were told by tale spinners mostly for the fun of it, but within them are embedded hard truths about dealing with the world of white people. They offer a robust, engaging demonstration of the ways in which an uprooted people have drawn from the traditions of their distant past to fashion a life - and with it, a new and vital culture - in the New World.

Toulouse-Lautrec and His World
The Belle Epoque (Beautiful Era), which dates from the late nineteenth century to the start of World War I, was an incredible period of creative and scientific activity. Until his death in 1901 at the age of 36, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec was one of its leading names along with poets and writers such as Guy de Maupassant and Emile Zola. He exhibited with Vincent Van Gogh and was a friend of Oscar Wilde whom he met during his time in London. Creating literally thousands of artworks during his short life, the images that Toulouse-Lautrec created were evocative of the mood of that time. His drawings and lithographs were often playful or satirical, but captured the essence of his subject This book brings together over 170 images. In addition, there are documentary images from the period depicting life in 'fin de siecle' Paris and selected cities around the world. Clothing, architecture and images of street life are featured and where possible photographs of the people Toulouse-Lautrec featured in his works such as Aristide Bruant.

Japanese Woodblock Prints
From Edouard Manet's portrait of naturalist writer Emile Zola sitting among his Japanese art finds to Van Gogh's meticulous copies of the Hiroshige prints he devotedly collected, 19th-century pioneers of European modernism made no secret of their love of Japanese art. In all its sensuality, freedom, and effervescence, the woodblock print is single-handedly credited with the wave of japonaiserie that first enthralled France and, later, all of Europe-but often remains misunderstood as an "exotic" artifact that helped inspire Western creativity.
The fact is that the Japanese woodblock print is a phenomenon of which there exists no Western equivalent. Some of the most disruptive ideas in modern art-including, as Karl Marx put it, that "all that is solid melts into air"-were invented in Japan in the 1700s and expressed like never before in the designs of such masters as Hokusai, Utamaro, and Hiroshige in the early 19th century.
This book lifts the veil on a much-loved but little-understood art form by presenting the 200 most exceptional Japanese woodblock prints in their historical context. Ranging from the 17th-century development of decadent ukiyo-e, or "pictures of the floating world," to the decline and later resurgence of prints in the early 20th century, the images collected in this edition make up an unmatched record not only of a unique genre in art history, but also of the shifting mores and cultural development of Japan.
From mystical mountains to snowy passes, samurai swordsmen to sex workers in shop windows, each piece is explored as a work of art in its own right, revealing the stories and people behind the motifs. We discover the four pillars of the woodblock print-beauties, actors, landscapes, and bird-and-flower compositions-alongside depictions of sumo wrestlers, kabuki actors, or enticing courtesans-rock stars who populated the "floating world" and whose fan bases fueled the frenzied production of woodblock prints. We delve into the horrifying and the obscure in prints where demons, ghosts, man-eaters, and otherworldly creatures torment the living-stunning images that continue to influence Japanese manga, film, and video games to this day. We witness how, in their incredible breadth, from everyday scenes to erotica, the martial to the mythological, these works are united by the technical mastery and infallible eye of their creators and how, with tremendous ingenuity and tongue-in-cheek wit, publishers and artists alike fought to circumvent government censorship.
Three years in the making, this XXL edition presents reproductions of the finest extant impressions from the vaults of museums and private collections across the globe-many newly photographed especially for this project. Some 17 stunning fold-outs invite us to study even the subtlest details, while extensive descriptions guide us through this frantic period in Japanese art history.

Picasso Black and White
Picasso Black and White examines the artist's lifelong exploration of a black and white leitmotiv through some 110 paintings and a selection of sculptures and works on paper. Picasso continued the tradition of engaging the color black that had been employed throughout a centuries-long history of Spanish painting by fellow artists Jose de Ribera, Diego Velazquez, Francisco de Zurbaran, and Francisco de Goya. Moreover, he made highly effective use of isolated black, white, and gray hues in a nod to monochromatic grisaille painting and to drawing, line, and form. As this volume attests, the recurrent motif of black and white appears throughout Picasso's oeuvre, including his blue and rose periods, his investigations into Cubism and Surrealism, his interpretations of historical subject studies for his celebrated painting Guernica, World War II, and an homage to old masters, as well as the powerful paintings of his last years. Featuring reproductions of more than 150 works, this book examines the extraordinary complexity and power of these expressive artworks, which purge color in order to highlight their formal structure. Including essays by leading Picasso scholars, this book is a unique and coherent perspective on one of the world's most innovative and influential artists.
