Na chválu Stvoriteľa
Kniha fotografií Na chválu Stvoriteľa už na prvý pohľad pozýva žasnúť, obdivovať tvorstvo a chváliť jeho Pôvodcu. Pôsobivé fotografie slovenskej fauny a flóry Ivana Kňazeho, zanieteného ornitológa, spisovateľa a fotografa prírody, dopĺňajú myšlienky pápeža Františka z encykliky Laudato si´( LS, Buď pochválený) o starostlivosti o náš spoločný domov a mieste človeka v ňom. Svätý Otec František, podobne ako jeho predchodcovia Ján Pavol II. a Benedikt XVI., pripomína, že autentický ľudský rozvoj má morálny charakter a predpokladá plné rešpektovanie človeka, musí však venovať pozornosť aj prirodzenému svetu a brať ohľad na prirodzenosť každej bytosti a na jej vzájomnú spojitosť v usporiadanom systéme: ... ak sa cítime intímne spojení so všetkým, čo existuje, spontánne z toho vyplynie striedmosť a starostlivosť (LS 11).
Vášnivý fotograf prírody Ivan Kňaze má na svojom loveckom konte tisícky fotografií zvierat od hmyzu až po šelmy a o svoje skúsenosti zo živočíšnej ríše sa už tri desaťročia delí prostredníctvom kníh. Doteraz mu vyšli takmer tri desiatky publikácií od tých najmenších až po veľké obrazové encyklopédie. Svoje snímky neupravuje, prezentuje, čo skutočne zachytil, lebo práve v tom spočíva hodnota prírodnej fotografie.

One Midsummer's Day
It takes a whole universe to make one small black bird.
The bestselling author of Crow Country and writer of The Guardian's Counrtry Diary tells the story of all life on Earth through a single day spent in the company of swifts.
Swifts are among the most extraordinary of all birds. Their migrations span continents and their twelve-week stopover, when they pause to breed in European rooftops, is the very definition of summer. They may nest in our homes but much about their lives passes over our heads. No birds are more wreathed in mystery. Captivated, Mark Cocker sets out to capture their essence.
Over the course of one day in midsummer he devotes himself to his beloved black birds as they spiral overhead. Yet this is also a book about so much more. Swifts are a prism through which Cocker explores the profound interconnections of the whole biosphere.
From the deep-sea thermal vents where life was born to the 15 million degrees at the core of our Sun, he shows that life is a singular and glorious continuum. These birds without borders are a perfect symbol to express the unity of the living planet. But they also illuminate how no creature, least of all ourselves, can be said to be alive in isolation. We are all inextricably connected.
Drawing deeply on science, history, literature and a lifetime of close observation, One Midsummer's Day is a dazzling and wide-ranging celebration of all life on Earth by one of our greatest nature writers.

Pathless Forest
The incredible of one man's obsession to find and protect the world's largest flowers
As a child, Chris Thorogood dreamed of seeing Rafflesia - the plant with the world's largest flowers. He crafted life-size replicas in an abandoned cemetery, carefully bringing them to life with paper and paint. Today he is a botanist at the University of Oxford's Botanic Garden and has dedicated his life to studying the biology of such extraordinary plants, working alongside botanists and foresters in Southeast Asia to document these huge, mysterious blooms.
Pathless Forest is the story of his journey to study and protect this remarkable plant - a biological enigma, still little understood, which invades vines as a leafless parasite and steals its food from them. We join him on a mind-bending adventure, as he faces a seemingly impenetrable barrier of weird, wonderful and sometimes fearsome flora; finds himself smacking off leeches, hanging off vines, wading through rivers; and following indigenous tribes into remote, untrodden rainforests in search of Rafflesia's ghostly, foul-smelling blooms, more than a metre across.
We depend on plants for our very existence, but two in five of the world's species are threatened with extinction - nobody knows how many species of Rafflesia might already have disappeared through deforestation. Pathless Forest is part thrilling adventure story and part an inspirational call to action to safeguard a fast-disappearing wilderness. To view plants in a different way, as vital for our own future as for that of the planet we share. And to see if Rafflesia itself can be saved.
Family Lore
Flor has a gift: she can predict, to the day, when someone will die. When she decides she wants a living wake - a party to bring her family and community together to celebrate the long life she's led - her sisters are surprised. Has Flor forseen her own death? Or someone else's? Does she have other motives?
But Flor isn't the only person with secrets. Matilde has tried for decades to cover the extent of her husband's infidelity, but she now must confront the true state of her marriage. Pastora is typically the most reserved sister, but Flor's wake motivates this driven woman to attempt to solve her sibling's problems. Camila is the youngest sibling, often the forgotten one, but she's decided she no longer wants to be taken for granted.

Want Me
Tracy Clark-Flory grew up wedged between fizzy declarations of "girl power" and the sexualized mandates of pop culture. It was "broken glass ceilings" and Girls Gone Wild infomercials. With a vague aim toward sexual empowerment, she set out to become what men wanted—or, at least, understand it.
In her moving, fresh, and darkly humorous memoir, she shares the thrilling and heartbreaking events that led to discovering conflicting truths about her own desire, first as a woman coming of age and then as a veteran journalist covering the sex beat. Tracing her experiences on adult film sets, at fetish conventions, and during an orgasmic meditation retreat (to name just a few), Clark-Flory weaves in statistics and expert voices to reckon with our views on sexual freedom.
Want Me is about looking for love, sex, and power as a woman in a culture that is "freer" than ever, yet defined by unprecedented pressures and enduring constraints. This is a first-hand example of one woman who navigated the mixed messages of sexual expectation, only to discover the complexity of her own wants and our collective need to change the limitations of that journey.
Anna Zemánková
Anna Zemánková (1908–1986) patří k těm osobitým tvůrcům, jejichž dílo nelze spoutat jednoznačnou charakteristikou. Z mnoha důvodů bývá její tvorba zařazována k art brut, v jehož kontextu patří k těm nejtajemnějším a nejmagičtějším. Její práce, velmi ceněné také v mezinárodním kontextu, působí jako herbář fantastické mimozemské fauny a flory či jako zcela svébytný imaginární svět, který vytvářela pomocí stále nově objevovaných a mnohdy překvapivých výtvarných technik. Tato mimořádná publikace přináší reprezentativní výběr z jejích kreseb, koláží, objektů a asambláží a doprovází ji texty znalců a badatelů, kteří obdivují její umění a každý po svém hledají cestu, jak porozumět niternému tajemství její tvorby. Spolu s nimi můžete otevřít pomyslné dveře k cestě bez hranic, ke svého druhu iniciačnímu zážitku.
