A síkság városai
Maguknak való cowboyok, akik ritkán szólalnak meg, de ha igen, annak súlya van. A magányos emberek bajtársiassága, leleményes és megszokhatatlan összhangjuk a természettel és otthonos idegenkedésük az úgynevezett civilizációtól. Az erőszak kíméletlen élessége. A Határvidék-trilógia záró darabjában, A síkság városaiban minden benne van, amiért Cormac McCarthyt nagyra tartják tisztelői: a vadnyugat alkonya elemi erejű, egyszerre realista és mégis jelképessé váló ábrázolásának lenyűgöző eszköztára.
A Vad lovak és az Átkelés című könyvekben megismert cowboyok, John Grady Cole és Billy Parham története A síkság városaiban végzetszerűen fonódik egybe. Az Egyesült Államok déli határvidékén játszódó történetben múlt és jelen, Amerika és Mexikó konfliktusos találkozása szikrázik fel. Vajon eleve elrendeltek-e a történeteink, vagy a barátság és szerelem kötelékei újraírhatják-e a sorsunkat? McCarthy kíméletlen és lenyűgöző tablót nyújtva keresi a választ a Határvidék-trilógia megrendítő fináléjában.

Bleeding Edge
It is 2001 in New York City, in the lull between the collapse of the dotcom boom and the terrible events of September 11th. Silicon Alley is a ghost town, Web 1.0 is having adolescent angst, Google has yet to IPO, Microsoft is still considered the Evil Empire. There may not be quite as much money around as there was at the height of the tech bubble, but there's no shortage of swindlers looking to grab a piece of what's left.
Maxine Tarnow is running a nice little fraud investigation business on the Upper West Side, chasing down different kinds of small-scale con artists. She used to be legally certified but her licence got pulled a while back, which has actually turned out to be a blessing because now she can follow her own code of ethics - carry a Beretta, do business with sleazebags, hack into people's bank accounts - without having too much guilt about any of it. Otherwise, just your average working mum - two boys in elementary school, an off-and-on situation with her sort of semi-ex-husband Horst, life as normal as it ever gets in the neighbourhood - till Maxine starts looking into the finances of a computer-security firm and its billionaire geek CEO, whereupon things begin rapidly to jam onto the subway and head downtown. She soon finds herself mixed up with a drug runner in an art deco motorboat, a professional nose obsessed with Hitler's aftershave, a neoliberal enforcer with footwear issues, plus elements of the Russian mob and various bloggers, hackers, code monkeys and entrepreneurs, some of whom begin to show up mysteriously dead. Foul play, of course.
With occasional excursions into the Deep Web and out to Long Island, Thomas Pynchon, channelling his inner Jewish mother, brings us a historical romance of New York in the early days of the Internet, not that distant in calendar time but galactically remote from where we've journeyed to since.
Will perpetrators be revealed, forget about brought to justice? Will Maxine have to take the handgun out of her purse? Will she and Horst get back together? Will Jerry Seinfeld make an unscheduled guest appearance? Will accounts secular and karmic be brought into balance?
Hey. Who wants to know?

Essential reading for all John Irving fans, here is a mouth-watering foretaste of 'The Pension Grillparzer' in The World According to Garp and to the Berry Family's journey to Vienna in The Hotel New Hampshire.

Hands Free Mama
"Rachel Macy Stafford's post "The Day I Stopped Saying Hurry Up" was a true phenomenon on The Huffington Post, igniting countless conversations online and off about freeing ourselves from the vicious cycle of keeping up with our overstuffed agendas. Hands Free Mama has the power to keep that conversation going and remind us that we must not let our lives pass us by." --Arianna Huffington, Chair, President, and Editor-in-Chief of the Huffington Post Media Group, nationally syndicated columnist, and author of thirteen books http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ DISCOVER THE POWER, JOY, AND LOVE of Living "Hands Free" If technology is the new addiction, then multi-tasking is the new marching order. We check our email while cooking dinner, send a text while bathing the kids, and spend more time looking into electronic screens than into the eyes of our loved ones. With our never-ending to-do lists and jam-packed schedules, it's no wonder we're distracted. But this isn't the way it has to be. In July 2010, special education teacher and mother Rachel Macy Stafford decided enough was enough. Tired of losing track of what matters most in life, Rachel began practicing simple strategies that enabled her to momentarily let go of largely meaningless distractions and engage in meaningful soul-to-soul connections. She started a blog to chronicle her endeavors and soon saw how both external and internal distractions had been sabotaging her happiness and preventing her from bonding with the people she loves most. Hands Free Mama is the digital society's answer to finding balance in a media-saturated, perfection-obsessed world. It doesn't mean giving up all technology forever. It doesn't mean forgoing our jobs and responsibilities. What it does mean is seizing the little moments that life offers us to engage in real and meaningful interaction. It means looking our loved ones in the eye and giving them the gift of our undivided attention, leaving the laundry till later to dance with our kids in the rain, and living a present, authentic, and intentional life despite a world full of distractions. So join Rachel and go hands-free. Discover what happens when you choose to open your heart-and your hands-to the possibilities of each God-given moment.

Jack Reacher: Poslední výstřel
2012, USA, 125 min.
Jack Reacher (Tom Cruise) je jako duch. Bývalého vojenského vyšetřovatele najdete jen tehdy, kdy chce on sám být nalezen. Objevuje se u případů, které potvrzují, že spravedlnost je slepá, a pro jejich vyřešení neváhá ignorovat zákony své země. Drsný hrdina z bestsellerů spisovatele Lee Childa konečně vstoupil na plátna kin, s odhodláním stvořit stejně silnou a kvalitní akční ságu, jakou se před lety stal jiný původem literární hrdina, Jason Bourne. Život pěti lidí, které osud přivedl ve stejný čas na stejné místo, ukončí šest kulek vypálených odstřelovačem. Takový masakr si od policie vyžádá nadstandardní nasazení, které brzy korunuje dopadení pachatele. Bývalý elitní voják nemá pod tíhou důkazů sebemenší šanci, přesto tváří v tvář vyšetřovatelům zarytě mlčí. Ti z něj dostanou jedinou větu: „Sežeňte Jacka Reachera.“ S jeho příchodem se z naprosto jasného případu stává výbušná kauza opředená mnoha záhadami, jejíž rozuzlení může stát život řadu lidí, Jacka Reachera nevyjímaje. Jenže ten si na drsňáka jenom nehraje a kvůli pravdě je ochoten hodně vydržet.

Jack Reacher: Nevracej se
2016, USA, 116 min.
Reacher nejraději pracuje tam, kde by byl oficiální postup příliš zdlouhavý. Jako bývalý major vojenské policie má rád zločiny s armádní příchutí a vůbec nejraději ty, které na první pohled nedávají smysl. Jako třeba obvinění velitelky Susan Turnerové (Cobie Smulders) ze špionáže. Krásku s dosud neposkvrněnou pověstí, kolem které začali náhle v podezřelém tempu umírat lidé, chtěl původně pozvat na večeři. Teď ji musí vytáhnout z basy, aby pomohl dokázat její nevinu. Někomu se to samozřejmě nelíbí a ten Někdo bude chtít Reachera pořádně klepnout přes prsty. Neváhá k tomu přitom využít i ty nejodpornější prostředky, jako je likvidace Reacherovy dcery, o jejíž existenci on sám dosud neměl tušení. Tady jde totiž o hodně.

London Boulevard
Mitchell frissen szabadul a börtönből, miután három évet töltött rács mögött egy olyan bűncselekményért, amire nem is emlékszik... Barátja, Billy Norton pontosan tudja, mi történt azon az estén, de az igazság feltárása helyett már a börtön előtt várja, hogy újra magával sodorja a gengszterek világába. Mitch azonban szeretne kimaradni a komolyabb balhékból, ezért később nemet mond a helyi nagyfőnöknek, s Lillian Palmer, a halványan pislákoló mozicsillag villájában vállal tisztes munkát. Hiába azonban a normális élet iránti vágy és az őszinte szerelem, Mitch nem tud elbújni sem erőszakos múltja, sem a szervezett bűnözés elől...
Ken Bruen bűnügyi regénye kliséktől mentes: különös, egyszerre vonzó és taszító karakterek, izgalmas, pergő történet, meghökkentő végkifejlet, eredeti stílus. Lírai és mégis könyörtelenül realista. Nem csoda, hogy William Nonahamet, az Oscar-díjas forgatókönyvírót is megihlette és filmet forgatott belőle Colin Farrell főszereplésével.

Who are You, Stripy Horse? (Book & CD)
Read and sing along to this story of discovery and friendship. In the tick-tock quiet, a shaft of moonlight tickles the nose of something sleeping. It's a stuffed, stripy horse. He twitches. Then a dusty sneeze echoes round the room. He's awake. So begins this charming story, all about a forgotten toy who can't remember his name. He is befriended by Muriel (a hummingbird who flutters off the pattern on a lamp), Hermann (a daft draught excluder), and Roly and Pitch (penguin-shaped salt and pepper shakers), and embarks on an adventure to meet Ming, a wise and ancient Chinese vase cat, who is the only person in the shop who might be able to tell him who he is. Thrills, spills, and some seriously silly situations await him on his adventure.

Frenchman
In New York in 1948, photographer Philippe Halsman had a chance meeting with Fernandel, a French movie star from the vaudeville tradition, and asked the actor to participate in a completely original photographic experiment. Halsman would ask Fernandel questions about America to which he would respond using only facial expressions. With his wide, lovable horse-face, Fernandel mimicked the answers to such questions as “Does the average Frenchman still pinch pretty girls in a crowd?” (silly grin) and “What was your reaction to the great American game of baseball?” (perplexed). Fernandel’s reactions are laugh-out-loud funny, and the book that resulted from this unusual collaboration is nothing short of wonderful. The Frenchman has been out of print for over fifty years, but TASCHEN’s reprint thankfully brings it back to life.

Poetry by Heart
Poetry by Heart - based on the hugely successful nationwide schools competition, 200 magical poems to learn by heart. "The poems we learn stay with us for the rest of our lives. They become personal and invaluable, and what's more they are free gifts - there for the taking". (Simon Armitage). Two years ago former Poet Laureate Andrew Motion had the idea of setting up Poetry by Heart - a nationwide annual competition for secondary schools which asked contestants to learn two or three poems and be judged on their recitations, first at school level, then regional, then in a national final held at London's National Portrait Gallery. It's proved a huge success, with hundreds of schools participating in the first year, and numbers up by 20 per cent in the second. Coinciding with the start of the third year of competition, and published on National Poetry Day whose theme coincidentally in 2014 is Recitation, this Poetry by Heart anthology brings together the pool of poems - 200 altogether - from which contestants make their choices. Specially picked by Motion and his three co-editors, these poems make up a treasure house - of almost-unknown poems and familiar poems from the mainstream; love poems and war poems; funny poems and heartbroken poems; poems that recreate the world we know and poems written on the dark side of the moon. And all chosen with a view to their being recited out loud. From William Wordsworth to Wilfred Owen, Emily Bronte to Elizabeth Bishop this wonderfully enjoyable anthology will be enjoyed by all ages and includes the best poets from the past to the present day. In a groundbreaking feature, the book includes QR codes which allow readers to use their mobile phones to listen to recordings of the poems - many of them specially recorded by the poets themselves. Sir Andrew Motion was Poet Laureate from 1999 till 2009, and is Professor of Creative Writing at Royal Holloway College, London. Jean Sprackland'sTilt won the Costa Poetry award in 2008. She is a Reader in Poetry at Manchester Metropolitan University. Julie Blake is co-Founder and Director of The Full English, an organization based in Bristol which provides support to teachers of English Literature. Mike Dixon is an educational consultant specializing in English in the classroom.

The Walt Disney Film Archives
The Master Magician A fantastic voyage through Walt Disney s animation works It s kind of fun to do the impossible. Walt Disney One of the most creative minds of the 20th century, Walt Disney created a unique and unrivaled imaginative universe. Like scarcely any other classics of cinema, his astonishing collection of animated cartoons revolutionized storytelling on screen and enchant to this day across geographies and generations. In TASCHEN s first volume of one of the most expansive illustrated publications on Disney animation, some 1,500 images and essays by eminent Disney experts take us to the beating heart of the studio s Golden Age of Animation . This landmark book traces Disney s complete animation journey from the silent film era, through his first full-length feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) and the pioneering artistic experiment Fantasia (1940), right up to his last masterpieces Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree (1966) and The Jungle Book (1967). With extensive research conducted through the historical collections of The Walt Disney Company, as well as private collections, editor Daniel Kothenschulte curates some of the most precious concept paintings and storyboards to reveal just how these animation masterpieces came to life. Masterful cel setups provide highly detailed illustrations of famous film scenes while rare pictures taken by Disney photographers and excerpts from story conferences between Walt and his staff bring a privileged insider s view to the studio s creative process. Each of the major animated features that were made during Walt s lifetime including Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, Bambi, Cinderella, Peter Pan, Lady and the Tramp, and One Hundred and One Dalmatians are given their own focus chapter, without forgetting less familiar gems such as the experimental short films of the Silly Symphonies series and underappreciated episodic musical films such as Make Mine Music and Melody Time, all of which receive the same meticulous research and attention. Many unfinished projects, among them the proposed sequels to the legendary musical Fantasia or a homage to Davy Crockett by painter Thomas Hart Benton, are also highlighted with rarely seen artworks, many of them previously unpublished. Throughout, the contributions from such leading Disney specialists as Leonard Maltin, Dave Smith, Charles Solomon, J. B. Kaufman, Russell Merritt, and Brian Sibley detail the evolution of each respective film. Realizing the Disney style was a collective project and as much as the master himself, The Walt Disney Film Archives acknowledges the outstanding animators and designers who influenced the style of the studio, among them Albert Hurter, Gustaf Tenggren, Kay Nielsen, Carl Barks, Mary Blair, Sylvia Holland, Tyrus Wong, Ken Anderson, Eyvind Earle, and Walt Peregoy.

A karácsony a vidámság és a szeretet ünnepe...
Vajon Eve is megtalálhatja a boldogságot?
Eve soha nem szerette a karácsonyt, azóta pedig különösen gyűlöli, hogy a vőlegénye karácsony napján veszítette életét egy afganisztáni bevetésen. A legkevésbé sem számít arra, hogy kedves, idős nagynénje egy élményparkot hagy rá a végrendeletében, mégpedig olyat, amelynek fő témája épp a karácsony...
És nem ez az egyetlen meglepetés. A nagynénje végakarata úgy szól, hogy Eve-nek egy rejtélyes üzlettárssal, Jacques Glace-szal közösen kell vezetnie a parkot. Ki ez a Jacques Glace, és vajon miért vette be Evelyn néni a végrendeletébe?
Ám Eve nem retten vissza a kihívástól. Elhatározza, hogy bármi áron sikerre viszi Winterworldöt. Vajon sikerül egyszer s mindenkorra felülkerekednie a karácsony és a mindent eluraló karácsonyi giccs iránti ellenszenvén? És végül sikerül Jacques-nak felolvasztania a lány jéggé fagyott szívét?

Ragasztó
A Ragasztó négy edinburgh-i fiú évtizedeken át tartó barátságának története. A városszéli lakótelepeken nevelkedő főszereplők - a lányok körében megmagyarázhatatlanul népszerű tuskó, Terry, a fegyelmezett sportember, Billy, az elmélkedő zenerajongó, Carl és a jóindulatú, de súlyos megfelelési kényszerrel küzdő Gally - mind máshogy képzelik el az életüket, és ahogy telik az idő, el is távolodnak egymástól, de az együtt megélt élmények és a közös titkok örökre összekötik őket.
A könyv a hetvenes évektől egészen az új évszázadig - a punktól a technóig, a speedtől az ecstasyig - követi a jellegzetes welshi alakok obszcén anekdotákkal és lesújtó tragédiákkal teli sorsát, részletesen bemutatva, hogyan próbálnak mindannyian a maguk módján megküzdeni társdalmi helyzetükkel, a vállukra nehezedő kulturális örökséggel, a csoportnyomással és szüleik elvárásaival, akik abban reménykednek, hogy a fiaik többre viszik, mint ők. Közben pedig kirajzolódik az is, miért tartja össze őket minden ellentét és különbözőség dacára is a barátság, amit a lakótelep, az iskola és az ezektől való szabadulás vágya kovácsolt, meg a lojalitás, amit az utcai erkölcs diktál: állj ki a haverjaidért, soha ne emelj kezet nőkre, és ami a legfontosabb, ne köpj be senkit.

Black Eyed Susans
**THE TOP 5 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** 'My book of the year so far. Breathtakingly, heart-stoppingly brilliant' Sophie Hannah, internationally bestselling author of The Narrow Bed A chilling new thriller that gets into the heart and mind of the killer, and the victim ...Seventeen-year-old Tessa, dubbed a 'Black-Eyed Susan' by the media, became famous for being the only victim to survive the vicious attack of a serial killer. Her testimony helped to put a dangerous criminal behind bars - or so she thought. Now, decades later the black-eyed susans planted outside Tessa's bedroom window seem to be a message from a killer who should be safely in prison. Haunted by fragmented memories of the night she was attacked and terrified for her own teenage daughter's safety, can Tessa uncover the truth about the killer before it's too late? Praise for Black-Eyed Susans 'It's a terrific plot, matched by the quality of the writing and superbly paced tension' The Times Book of the Month 'Black Eyed Susans is a compelling read, especially for Serial fans' Cosmopolitan 'Creepy and compelling, Black-Eyed Susans is a shadowy and crooked journey to a very dark place indeed, a twisty fairytale that deceives you just when you think you've cracked it and a thriller to make you remember why you love thrillers. Don't miss it' Observer, Thriller of the Month 'One of the classiest thrillers you'll read this year' Charlotte Heathcote of Daily Express and Sunday Express 'Mesmerising ...In a crowded field, Heaberlin is something special, and clearly an author to whom close attention must be paid' Barry Forshaw, Crime Time 'About as good an example of Grip Lit as you could read' Sunday Independent 'Sophisticated, disturbing and with plenty of red herrings' Woman and Home 'We can't remember the last time a thriller burrowed under our skin like this. Sparkling characters, authentic emotion, and an unpredictable plot makes this a terrific read from start to end' iBooks, Books of the Month 'The assured telling of this chiller combines to create a very modern Gothic horror that will keep you up way past your bedtime' Sunday Mirror 'A sophisticated take on the serial killer novel' Good Housekeeping 'Black Eyed Susans is haunting, intense and original - it'll keep you guessing till the last page' Closer 'A masterful thriller that shouldn't be missed. Heaberlin's work calls to mind that of Gillian Flynn. Both writers published impressive early novels that were largely overlooked, and then one that couldn't be: Flynn's Gone Girl and now Heaberlin's Black-Eyed Susans. Don't miss it' Washington Post 'A fascinating, twisted book' Koethi Zan, author of Richard and Judy-selected THE NEVER LIST 'This is a deftly organised, impeccably paced psychological suspense thriller that nods to Daphne du Maurier and, like all Heaberlin's fiction, boasts purr-inducing prose ' Sunday Times, Culture Magazine
