The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (often shortened to Huck Finn) is a novel written by American humorist Mark Twain. It is commonly used and accounted as one of the first Great American Novels. It is also one of the first major American novels written using Local Color Regionalism, or vernacular, told in the first person by the eponymous Huckleberry "Huck" Finn, best friend of Tom Sawyer and hero of three other Mark Twain books.The book is noted for its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River. By satirizing Southern antebellum society that was already a quarter-century in the past by the time of publication, the book is an often scathing look at entrenched attitudes, particularly racism. The drifting journey of Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, down the Mississippi River on their raft may be one of the most enduring images of escape and freedom in all of American literature.

The Hero with a Thousand Faces
Explore the Hero's Journey in stories as old as humanity and as new as last night's dreamThe latest incarnation of Oedipus, the continued romance of Beauty and the Beast, stand this afternoon on the corner of 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue, waiting for the traffic light to change. — Joseph CampbellSince its release in 1949, The Hero with a Thousand Faceshas influenced millions of readers by combining the insights of modern psychology with Joseph Campbell’s revolutionary understanding of comparative mythology. In these pages, Campbell outlines the Hero’s Journey, a universal motif of adventure and transformation that runs through virtually all of the world’s mythic traditions. He also explores the Cosmogonic Cycle, the mythic pattern of world creation and destruction.As part of the Joseph Campbell Foundation’s Collected Works of Joseph Campbell, this third edition features expanded illustrations, a comprehensive bibliography, and more accessible sidebars.As relevant today as when it was first published, The Hero with a Thousand Facescontinues to find new audiences in fields ranging from religion and anthropology to literature and film studies. The book has also profoundly influenced creative artists—including authors, songwriters, game designers, and filmmakers—and continues to inspire all those interested in the inherent human need to tell stories.Reviews:“I have returned to no other book more often since leaving college than this one, and every time I discover new insight into the human journey. Every generation will find in Hero wisdom for the ages.” — Bill Moyers“In the three decades since I discovered The Hero with a Thousand Faces, it has continued to fascinate and inspire me. Joseph Campbell peers through centuries and shows us that we are all connected by a basic need to hear stories and understand ourselves. As a book, it is wonderful to read; as illumination into the human condition, it is a revelation.” — George Lucas“Campbell’s words carry extraordinary weight, not only among scholars but among a wide range of other people who find his search down mythological pathways relevant to their lives today....The book for which he is most famous, The Hero with a Thousand Faces [is] a brilliant examination, through ancient hero myths, of man’s eternal struggle for identity.” — Time

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.

Rolling Stones, The - Voodoo Lounge Uncut BD+CD
Kultovní rocková kapela Rolling Stones vydává nově sestříhaný, remixovaný a remasterovaný archivní koncertní film Voodoo Lounge Uncut, který byl natočený 25. listopadu 1994 v Miami na stadionu Joe Robbieho během světového turné k desce Voodoo Lounge. Mezi hosty se objeví například Sheryl Crow, Robert Cray nebo Bo Diddley. Nová verze filmu obsahuje deset dosud nezveřejněných vystoupení a pět bonusových písní z Giants Stadium v New Jersey, které v Miami nezazněly. Série nahrávek, která zobrazuje Rolling Stones na koncertní šňůře v polovině devadesátých let, vyjde 16. listopadu.
Mezi skladby, které se na Voodoo Lounge Uncut objeví, patří například Not Fade Away, You Got Me Rocking, (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction, Sympathy For The Devil nebo Jumpin' Jack Flash.
Voodoo Lounge Tour začalo v dubnu 1994, trvalo přibližně rok a obsahovalo 134 koncertů na šesti kontinentech, které shlédlo přes 6, 5 milionu fanoušků, čímž se turné stalo svého času vůbec největším. Voodoo Lounge album se v roce svého vydání stalo bezkonkurenčním číslem jedna po celém světě. V roce 1995 dokonce vyhrálo Grammy za nejlepší rockové album.
Rolling Stones jsou kapelou, která je od svého počátku v roce 1962, kdy byli protipólem svatouškovských Beatles, nedomyslitelným pilířem rockové hudby. O tom vypovídá i jejich zařazení na čtvrté místo v žebříčku padesáti nesmrtelných interpretů rock'n'rollu časopisu Rolling Stone, dvojnásobný zisk Grammy za celoživotní dílo a uvedení do Rock'n'rollové síně slávy. Tvrdé jádro kapely tvoří na rytíře pasovaný zpěvák Mick Jagger a kytarový mág s životním příběhem rebela Keith Richards.

The Heads of Cerberus
One of the first dystopian science fantasies, this novel features a grey dust from an ancient glass vial which is capped with a silver figure of Cerberus, the 3-headed mythological dog that guarded the gate to "Pluto's realm", that is, to Hades. The fine dust transports anyone who inhales it to a totalitarian Philadelphia of 2118 AD. It was written by Gertrude Barrows Bennett (1883–1948) under the pseudonym Francis Stevens. Bennett, the first major female writer of fantasy and science fiction, has been called "the woman who invented dark fantasy."

Five Nights at Freddys: Fazbear Frights 9: The Puppet Carver
Five Nights at Freddy's fans won't want to miss
this pulse-pounding collection of three novella-length tales
that will keep even the bravest FNAF player up at night...
Consumed by failure... Desperate to keep his kiddie pizzeria from
bankruptcy, Jack lets his animatronics tech pitch him a new invention
that might just give him some perspective. Frustrated by
an unfair arcade game, Colton throws himself into re-engineering
the device at any cost. Marley's best friend goes missing on a tour
of the Freddy's Pizza Factory; she knows what really happened
... but her guilt isn't the only thing threatening to eat her
alive.
Klara and the Sun
'The Sun always has ways to reach us.'
From her place in the store, Klara, an Artificial Friend with outstanding observational qualities, watches carefully the behaviour of those who come in to browse, and of those who pass in the street outside. She remains hopeful a customer will soon choose her, but when the possibility emerges that her circumstances may change for ever, Klara is warned not to invest too much in the promises of humans.
In Klara and the Sun, Kazuo Ishiguro looks at our rapidly-changing modern world through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator to explore a fundamental question: what does it mean to love?

Pink Floyd - Behind The Wall
A Pink Floyd, ahogy korábban még soha nem láthattuk!
A rocktörténet közel fél évszázadát felölelő Pink Floyd: Behind the Wall bemutatja a világ legnépszerűbb pszichedelikus együttesének drámai és izgalmas történetét. A Pink Floyd első átfogó, illusztrált krónikájában tanúi lehetünk a korai cambridge-i szárnypróbálgatásaiknak, átélhetjük, ahogy Syd Barrett dalszövegeket ír, ahogy elkészül a Dark Side of the Moon stúdióanyaga, de annak is, ahogy összekülönböznek egymással a zenekar tagjai.
Fedezzük fel a dalok mögött rejlő titkokat, ismerjük meg a legendás fényshow-k és színpadi technika fejlődését, a metsző vitákat és még sok érdekes kulisszatitkot. A teljes diszkográfia mellett a könyvben több mint 200 képet találunk Syd Barrett, Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Rick Wright és Nick Mason fellépéseiről, közöttük ritka koncertfotókat, de a koncerttermeken kívüli életük őszinte dokumentumait is. A Pink Floyd: Behind the Wall betekintést enged az olvasónak az egyik valaha is színpadra lépő legforradalmibb együttes titkokkal teli életébe.

A Descent into the Maelström
Inspired by the Moskstraumen, it is couched as a story within a story, a tale told at the summit of a mountain climb. The story is told by an old man who reveals that he only appears old - "You suppose me a very old man," he says, "but I am not. It took less than a single day to change these hairs from a jetty black to white, to weaken my limbs, and to unstring my nerves." The narrator, convinced by the power of the whirlpools he sees in the ocean beyond, is then told of the "old" man's fishing trip with his two brothers a few years ago.
