Punk Paradox: A Memoir
From the legendary singer-songwriter of Bad Religion comes a historical memoir and cultural criticism of punk rock’s evolution.
Greg Graffin is the lead vocalist and songwriter of Bad Religion, recently described as “America's most significant punk band.” Since its inception in Los Angeles in 1980, Bad Religion has produced 18 studio albums, become a long-running global touring powerhouse, and has established a durable legacy as one of the most influential punk rock bands of all time.
Punk Paradox is Graffin's life narrative before and during L.A. punk's early years, detailing his observations on the genre's explosive growth and his band's steady rise in importance. The book begins by exploring Graffin’s Midwestern roots and his life-changing move to Southern California in the mid-’70s. Swept up into the burgeoning punk scene in the exhilarating and often-violent streets of Los Angeles, Graffin and his friends formed Bad Religion, built a fanbase, and became a touring institution. All these activities took place in parallel with Graffin's never ceasing quest for intellectual enlightenment. Despite the demands of global tours, recording sessions, and dedication to songwriting, the author also balanced a budding academic career. In so doing, he managed to reconcile an improbable double-life as an iconic punk rock front man and University Lecturer in evolution.
Graffin’s unique experiences mirror the paradoxical elements that define the punk genre—the pop influence, the quest for society’s betterment, music’s unifying power—all of which are prime ingredients in its surprising endurance. Fittingly, this book argues against the traditional narrative of the popular perception of punk. As Bad Religion changed from year to year, the spirit of punk—and its sonic significance—lived on while Graffin was ever willing to challenge convention, debunk mythology, and liberate listeners from the chains of indoctrination.
As insightful as it is exciting, this thought-provoking memoir provides both a fly on the wall history of the punk scene and astute commentary on its endurance and evolution.

Nature Is A Human Right
Having access to natural, green spaces is vital to our physical and mental wellbeing. But, as urban development spreads, grey has become the new green.
Already, concrete outweighs every tree, bush and shrub on Earth. Nature deprivation is a fast-growing epidemic, harming the health and happiness of hundreds of millions of people worldwide - especially vulnerable and marginalized groups. To combat this, Nature is a Human Right, founded by Ellen Miles in 2020, is working to make access to green space a recognized right for all, not a privilege.
This book has taken root from the mission and vision of the campaign, bringing together a collection of engaging essays, interviews and exercises, curated by Ellen, from a selection of its expert ambassadors and supporters (including authors, artists, scientists, human rights experts, television presenters, TED speakers, and climate activists). Through each contributor, we discover a new perspective on why contact with nature should be a protected human right, journeying through personal narratives on mental health, disability, racism, environmental inequality, creativity, innovation and activism.
This is a captivating and enlightening collection of original writing and ideas that highlights the importance of nature, the threats of nature deprivation, and the work that needs to be done to make our global future happier, healthier and more equal.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: The Druids Call
Explore the thrilling origins of the druid Doric in this original prequel to Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.
For as long as she can remember, Doric has felt alone. Abandoned by her human parents, she wandered for years before being taken in by a community of Neverwinter Wood elves. But her horns and tail proclaim a tiefling heritage, and even among the kindest of elves, her fledgling druidic abilities mark her as different from the rangers around her. And as humans begin to encroach farther and farther into the once pristine woods, Doric knows she needs to master her druidic capabilities if she is to be any help to her adopted family. With no means of helping Doric themselves, her guardians see no choice but to send her somewhere she can come into her own.
Tucked among the ancient pines of the Ardeep Forest hides the Emerald Enclave, an order of warriors tasked with preserving the natural world. They fight to maintain balance between the forces of the wild and civilization, and in doing so, protect the sanctity of each.
Among their order, Doric begins to find power in her differences. But not all her fellow initiates are so capable of new growth, and as her training continues, Doric is forced to confront the very beliefs that brought her into the Enclave’s fold. If she’s going to protect her home, she’ll have to reckon with her people, her power, and the walls she’s built to keep herself safe from both.

Lacná kniha Dánská dívka - 2. vydání (-90%)
Působivý román napsaný podle skutečného příběhu, nyní i ve filmové podobě s Eddiem Redmaynem a Alicií Vikanderovou v hlavních rolích.
Románové zpracování skutečného příběhu malíře Einara Wegenera a jeho manželky Grety začíná nevinnou prosbou o pomoc, aby se na dalších stranách rozvinulo ve strhující vyprávění o neobvyklé lásce, osobní svobodě a odvaze vzepřít se obecnému mínění.
„Uděláš pro mě něco?" zeptala se Greta a netušila, co tím rozpoutá. Potřebovala dokončit obraz, a protože jí nepřišla na závěrečné sezení modelka, neviděla jinou možnost, než použít jako náhradní model svého muže. Sotva si však Einar oblékne punčochy, dámské šaty a střevíce, v jeho nitru se cosi změní: uvědomí si, že je ve skutečnosti ženou, nikoli mužem, a zatouží po změně pohlaví.
Není to však snadné. Einarův příběh se odehrává ve dvacátých letech, kdy lidé jako on často končí v ústavech pro choromyslné. V pařížských salonech možná dekadence dostupuje vrcholu, ale ve většinové společnosti stále převládá názor, že cítit se jako zajatec ve vlastním těle může jen psychopat, a toho je nutné razantně léčit.
Einar už ale sní svůj velký sen a nechce se jeho splnění vzdát. Kolik osobní odvahy, pochopení a podpory bude potřebovat, aby se mohl vnitřně osvobodit? Jak silná musí být láska ženy, která je ochotna vyhovět tak nevšednímu přání svého muže? Jaké jsou pocity člověka, který by rád unikl své předem dané identitě?
