Kafka on the Shore
Kafka on the Shore follows the fortunes of two remarkable characters. Kafka Tamura runs away from home at fifteen, under the shadow of his father's dark prophesy. The aging Nakata, tracker of lost cats, who never recovered from a bizarre childhood affliction, finds his pleasantly simplified life suddenly turned upside down. Their parallel odysseys are enriched throughout by vivid accomplices and mesmerising dramas. Cats converse with people, fish tumble from the sky, a ghostlike pimp deploys a Hegel-spouting girl of the night, a forest harbours soldiers apparently un-aged since WWII. There is a savage killing, but the identity of both victim and killer is a riddle. Murakami's novel is at once a classic quest, but it is also a bold exploration of mythic and contemporary taboos, of patricide, of mother-love, of sister-love. Above all it is an entertainment of a very high order.
The Curse of Saints - A Szentek Átka
Aya a királynő kéme és bizalmasa, a fegyelemnek és a kötelességnek szenteli életét, és arra használja az istenektől kapott adottságát, hogy megakadályozza a sötét varázslat visszatérését. Megesküdött rá, hogy megvédi a harcostársait, Willt is beleértve, aki a királynő végrehajtója és Aya ádáz ellensége.
Mivel a körülmények rákényszerítik őket arra, hogy együttműködjenek egymással, átmenetileg törékeny fegyverszünetet kötnek. Ám amikor bekövetkezik egy tragédia, Aya gondolkodás nélkül cselekszik, és szabadjára engedi azt az erőt, amit a világ ötszáz évvel ezelőtt látott utoljára. Aya majdnem összeroppan, és szembe kell néznie egy képtelenségnek tűnő igazsággal, ami azzal fenyegeti, hogy elveszíti az irányítást önmaga fölött. Kénytelen együttműködni Will-el, mert ki kell deríteniük, ki is Aya valójában. És talán fegyverként fogják használni egy bizonytalan kimenetelű háborúban.
Will-lel az oldalán és a különleges erő birtokában Ayának el kell döntenie: az-e a küldetése, hogy megmentse szeretett világát - vagy pedig az, hogy elpusztítsa.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a semi-autobiographical novel by James Joyce, first serialized in The Egoist from 1914 to 1915 and published in book form in 1916. It depicts the formative years in the life of Stephen Dedalus, a fictional alter ego of Joyce and a pointed allusion to the consummate craftsman of Greek mythology, Daedalus.A Portrait is a key example of the Künstlerroman (an artist's bildungsroman) in English literature. Joyce's novel traces the intellectual and religio-philosophical awakening of young Stephen Dedalus as he begins to question and rebel against the Catholic and Irish conventions he has been brought up in. He finally leaves for Paris to pursue his calling as an artist. The work pioneers some of Joyce's modernist techniques that would later come to fruition in Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. The Modern Library ranked Portrait as the third greatest English-language novel of the twentieth century.

The Prom - A végzős bál
Csak te meg én és egy DAL. Emma Nolannek és Alyssa Greene-nek közös a célja: egy párként szeretnének mutatkozni a végzősök iskolai bálján. Csakhogy van néhány bökkenő – oké, lehet, hogy több is. Alyssa még nem coming outolt. Nem mintha nem szeretne, de az anyukája a szülői munkaközösség tagja, és mindent elkövet, hogy azonos nemű párok ne vehessenek részt a bálon. Így Alyssának érthető módon nem nagy kedve van megbeszélni ezt vele. Hamarosan az egész város felsorakozik Mrs. Greene mögött, és nagyon úgy néz ki, Emma és Alyssa nem fognak boldogan élni, amíg meg nem halnak. Egyszer csak a semmiből megjelenik két Broadway-sztár, akik hajlandók harcba szállni a lányokért (némi publicitásért cserébe). De amikor a jó szándékuk csődöt mond, Emmán és Alyssán van a sor, hogy megmutassák az indianai kisvárosuknak – no meg az egész világnak –, hogy a szerelem az szerelem. A regény alapjául a hasonló című, Tony-díjra jelölt, világhódító musical szolgált. Új, netflixes filmváltozatában Meryl Streep és Nicole Kidman a főszereplők. „A The Promban mindent megkapsz, amit a saját bálodon is szívesen viszontlátnál. Varázslatos, egyedi, vicces, és mindez felsőfokon. Káprázatos könyv!” – Rachel Hawkins, NYT bestsellerszerző „A főszereplők hitelesen szólalnak meg, a történet érzékletesen adja vissza az első szerelem varázslatát. A regény élvezetéhez nincs szükség a musical ismeretére, teljes élményt nyújt.” – Kirkus Reviews Szereted a Vörös pöttyös könyveket? Vidd haza nyugodtan! Tetszeni fog. 16 éves kortól ajánljuk!

Shadow State : Murder, Mayhem and Russias Remaking of the West
No terrorist group has deployed a nerve agent in a civilian area or used a radioactive mini-bomb in London. The Kremlin has done both. Shadow State is a gripping investigative account of how Russia's spies helped elect Donald Trump, backed Brexit, murdered enemies and threatened the very basis of western democracy.
The operatives come in disguise. They pose as tourists, journalists and businessmen. Utterly ruthless, sometimes bungling and always ambitious, they roam from Salisbury to Helsinki, Ukraine to the Central African Republican, London to Washington. SHADOW STATE is a riveting and alarming investigation into those spies and the way Russia has used them to wage an increasingly bold war in the UK and beyond.
The Kremlin has attempted to reshape politics in their own mould; the future of Western democracy is at stake as a result

The Hobbit
This is a new paperback edition of JRR Tolkien's fantasy masterpiece, The Hobbit". "The Hobbit" is a tale of high adventure, undertaken by a company of dwarves in search of dragon-guarded gold. A reluctant partner in this perilous quest is Bilbo Baggins, a comfort-loving unambitious hobbit, who surprises even himself by his resourcefulness and skill as a burglar. Encounters with trolls, goblins, dwarves, elves and giant spiders, conversations with the dragon, Smaug, and a rather unwilling presence at the Battle of Five Armies are just some of the adventures that befall Bilbo. Bilbo Baggins has taken his place among the ranks of the immortals of children's fiction. Written by Professor Tolkien for his own children, "The Hobbit" met with instant critical acclaim when published."
Elephants - Birth, Death and Family in the Lives of the Giants
Elephants are as unique as people. They can be clever and curious or headstrong and impulsive, shy or sociable. Learn to know them as individuals as well as a species in this evocative account of years spent studying elephant behaviour in the wild.
Watching a family out for a swim on a hot day, Dr Hannah Mumby notes grandmothers, mothers, sisters and children exchanging noisy greetings, a consistent stream of close-range vocalisations, intermittent touching, co-operative herding of babies and frequent stopping for snacks. A close and interconnected family. But in this family, the adults weigh several tons each and the babies wave trunks playfully at one another. This is a herd of elephants.
That elephants are intelligent, sentient beings is common knowledge, but so much about their day-to-day lives and abilities remains unknown. How do they communicate with one another over seemingly impossible distances? How do males spend their lives once they have left their mothers' herds? And how much do they really remember?
In this lyrically written and deeply personal account of several years of field research, Mumby reverently describes her own elephant encounters, alongside an exploration of the most up-to-date discoveries about the lives of these gentle giants. Learn how elephants live, travel, have sex, raise children and relate to one another, and reflect on how they think and feel. Understanding elephants as individuals closes the gap between human and animal and has powerful applications in the critical field of elephant conservation.

Summer Light, and Then Comes the Night
"The Icelandic Dickens" Irish Examiner
"Stefansson shares the elemental grandeur of Cormac McCarthy" EILEEN BATTERSBY, T.L.S. Supplement
"A wonderful, exceptional writer . . . A timeless storyteller" CARSTEN JENSEN
"Sometimes, in small places, life becomes bigger"
Sometimes a distance from the world's tumult opens our hearts and our dreams. In a village of four hundred souls, the infinite light of an Icelandic summer makes its inhabitants want to explore, and the eternal night of winter lights up the magic of the stars.
The village becomes a microcosm of the age-old conflict between human desire and destiny, between the limits of reality and the wings of the imagination. With humour, with poetry, and with a tenderness for human weaknesses, Stefansson explores the question of why we live at all.
