Blankets ?– Takarók
"Ez az eredeti, meditatív, olykor pedig álomszerű képregény életed első csókjához repít vissza." - The Guardian
A Takarók egy fiú felnőtté válásáról és a kreativitása kifejezéséhez szükséges magabiztosság megleléséről szól. Craig Thompson megkapó képregényes emlékirata a középnyugati Amerika téli vidékén játszódik: szépen meghúzott vonásokból áll össze a kisvárosi élet, a szigorú, fundamentalista keresztény gyermekkor és a magányos, érzelmileg zavaros tinédzserkor portréja.
Craig és Raina egymásba szeretnek egy mindent elborító hótakaró alatt, egy felekezeti téli táborban, és megosztják egymással hitbeli kétségeiket és a valóság előli menekülésről szőtt álmaikat. Idővel azonban feltámadnak személyes démonaik, és kapcsolatuk összeomlik. Egyetemes történet ez, és Thompson eleven ecsetvonásainak és sajátos oldalkompozícióinak köszönhetően nem csak ismerős, hanem szívszorító is.
E két Eisner-díjjal és három Harvey-díjjal jutalmazott úttörő képregény roppant kifejező képet fest a tinédzserkori vágyakozásról, az első szerelemről (valamint az első szívszakadásról), a hit válságáról és a mindezzel való megbékélésről. Thompson ceruzával és tintával megénekelt szerelmi története maradandó élmény.

Hell´s Angels (Penguin Essentials)
Journalist, maverick, rebel and author of "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" Hunter S. Thompson offers another novel of American counterculture in Hell's Angels, beautifully repackaged as part of the Penguin Essentials range. 'A phalanx of motorcycles came roaring over the hill from the west...the noise was like a landslide, or a wing of bombers passing over. Even knowing the Angels I couldn't quite handle what I was seeing. It was like Genghis Khan, Morgan's Raiders, the Wild One and the Rape of Nanking all at once.' In September, 1964 a cavalcade of motorbikes ripped through the city of Monterey, California. It was a trip destined to make Hell's Angels household names across America, infamous for their violent, drunken rampages and feared for the destruction left in their wake. Enter Hunter S. Thompson, the master of counter-culture journalism who alone had the ability and stature to ride with the Angels on their terms. In this brilliant and hair-raising expose, he journeys with the last outlaws of the American frontier. A mixture of journalism, story-telling and sheer bravado, Hell's Angels is Hunter S. Thompson at full throttle. "Excellent documentary non-fiction". ("Time Out"). "The maverick voice of American counterculture". ("Guardian"). "There are only two adjectives writers care about any more - "brilliant" and "outrageous" - and Hunter has a freehold on both of them". (Tom Wolfe). "The book that made Thompson's name". ("Loaded"). Hunter S. Thompson was born in Louisville, Kentucky in 1937. He began his writing career as a sports columnist in Florida and went on to work on newspapers and magazines in New York, San Juan and Rio de Janeiro. His articles appeared in Esquire, "Rolling Stone" magazine and the "San Francisco Chronicle". He is the author of a number of books, including "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas", "Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72", "The Great Shark Hunt", "Generation of Swine", "The Curse of Lono", "Songs of the Doomed", "Better Than Sex", "The Proud Highway" and "The Rum Diary". Hunter S. Thompson died in 2005.

The Secret Life of Books: Why They Mean More Than Words
We love books. We take them to bed with us. We display them on our bookshelves. We write our names in them. They weigh down our suitcases when we go on holiday. We take them for granted. But there's much more to them than meets the eye.
From how books feel and smell, to burned books, banned books and books that create nations, The Secret Life of Books is about everything beyond the words on a page. It's about how books - and readers - have evolved over time. And about how books still have the power to change our lives.

'Hot damn! Let us rumble, keep going and don't slow down...let's have a little fun...' In his much-anticipated memoir, Hunter S. Thompson looks back on a long and productive life. It is a story of crazed road trips fuelled by bourbon and black acid, of insane judges and giant porcupines, of girls, guns, explosives and, of course, bikes. He also takes on his dissolute youth in Louisville; his adventures in pornography; campaigning for local office in Aspen; and what it's like to accidentally be accused of trying to kill Jack Nicholson.

Madly, Deeply
A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, WATERSTONES BEST BOOK OF 2022, ENTERTAINMENT MAIL ON SUNDAYS BOOK OF THE YEAR 2022
Alan Rickman remains one of the most beloved actors of all time across almost every genre, from his breakout role as Die Hard's villainous Hans Gruber to his heart-wrenching run as Professor Severus Snape, and beyond. His air of dignity, his sonorous voice and the knowing wit he brought to each role continue to captivate new audiences today. But Rickman's artistry wasn't confined to just his performances. Rickman's writing details the extraordinary and the ordinary in a way that is anecdotal, indiscreet, witty, gossipy and utterly candid. He takes us behind the scenes on films and plays ranging from Sense & Sensibility, the Harry Potter series, Private Lives, My Name Is Rachel Corrie and many more.
The diaries run from 1993 to his death in 2016 and offer insight into both a public and private life. Here is Rickman the consummate professional actor, but also the friend, the traveller, the fan, the director, the enthusiast: in short, the real Alan Rickman. Here is a life fully lived, all detailed in intimate and characteristically plain-spoken prose. Reading the diaries is like listening to Rickman chatting to a close friend. Madly, Deeply also includes a foreword by Emma Thompson and a selection of Rickman's early diaries, dating from 1974 to 1982, when his acting life first began.
