When in Rome
Rome is where the heart is.
Amelia Rose is burned-out from years of maintaining her public image as pop princess Rae Rose. Inspired by her favourite Audrey Hepburn film, Roman Holiday, she drives off in the middle of the night for a break in Rome . . . Rome, Kentucky, that is.
Running the pie shop his grandmother left him, Noah Walker is busy enough as it is. But after finding Amelia on his front lawn in her broken-down car, he decides to let her stay in his guest room - on a very temporary basis, of course.
As the two of them grow closer, Noah starts to see a new side to Amelia - kind-hearted and goofy, yet lonely from years in the public eye. Amelia may have to go back to her other life someday, but for now she's perfectly happy falling in love with the cozy small town she's found herself in . . . and her grumpy tour guide isn't half-bad either.

Én és te
"Az emberek nagyon gyakran a megalkuvást hívják alkalmazkodásnak, mint ahogy a biztonságot hívják boldogságnak. Éppolyan önbecsapás mind a kettő."
Dr. Csernus Imre élő előadásai mindig népszerűek, ha azonban a párkapcsolatok adják a témát, kivétel nélkül zsúfolásig megtelik a terem. Miért okoz olyan gyakran problémát az, amire valamennyien vágyunk: hogy megtaláljuk és megőrizzük a szerelmet és a boldogságot? Ennek a kérdésnek ered a nyomába új könyvében a közismert pszichiáter.
A rövid választ már a könyv címe megadja. Nem véletlenül a "te és én" udvariassági sorrendje helyett Én és te, hiszen aki nem tudja elfogadni és szeretni önmagát, az mást sem képes igazán szeretni. A szerző ebből a tételből kiindulva halad végig a kapcsolatok mindannyiunk számára ismerős állomásain, a vonzalom ébredésétől az olyan gyakran bekövetkező szakításig, az első kamaszkori szárnypróbálgatásoktól a felnőttkori szerelmekig, a családalapítástól a gyerekek érkezésén át a válásig és az újrakezdésig, vagy adott esetben a kapcsolat sikeres megmentéséig.
Miért nem azonos a biztonság a boldogsággal? Miért olyan gyakori a társfüggőség? Hogyan öröklődnek a kapcsolati minták? Miért gond, ha egy párkapcsolatban két vámpír szívja egymás vérét? Miért nem érdemes tartanunk a kudarctól? Milyen intő jelek figyelmeztetnek arra, hogy hamarosan bekövetkezhet a szerelem halála? Miért nem jó ötlet együtt maradni a gyerekek miatt? Miért fontos meghúzni a határokat, betartani a megígért következményeket és vállalni a felelősséget a szavainkért és a tetteinkért? Miért fontos megtanulnunk, hogy az igazság félúton van? És szülőként miért kellene minderre időben megtanítani a gyerekeinket? Mire a könyv végére érünk, választ kapunk ezekre az életünket alapvetően meghatározó kérdésekre, és azt is megtanulhatjuk, hogyan tölthetjük fel nap mint nap a kapcsolatunk poharát.
Dr. Csernus Imre a munkája során mindig hangsúlyozza, ő csak javaslatokat tesz. Éppen ezért lesz az Én és te ha nem is kötelező, de ajánlott olvasmány mindenki számára, aki igazi szerelemre és hosszan tartó boldogságra vágyik.
"Ha szívvel-lélekkel állok az életemhez, akkor szívvel-lélekkel állok a másikhoz, a felnőttséghez, és a szexualitáshoz is. Ez a szívvel-lélekkel, mindent bele, felnőtt szemlélet az a mesterkulcs, amelyik minden zárat kinyit."

Down and Out in Paris and London
'You can live on a shilling a day in Paris if you know how. But it is a complicated business'
As a struggling writer in his twenties, Orwell lived as a down-and-out among the poorest members of society. In this, his early memoir, Orwell recalls with vivid clarity his time working as a penniless dishwasher in Paris, pawning clothes to buy a day's worth of bread and wine, sleeping in bug-infested bunks, trading survival skills and cigarette butts with fellow tramps, and trudging between London's workhouse spikes for a few hours' sleep and tea.
With all of the sensitivity and compassion that Orwell is known and loved for, he exposed the hardships of poverty and gave readers an unprecedented look at life lived on the fringes of society.
America First
Netradiční kandidát, bezprecedentní prezident? Proč si Američané zvolili natolik kontroverzní osobnost za hlavu svého státu? Jaké byly příčiny a kontext zvolení Donalda Trumpa americkým prezidentem a jakými strategiemi a tématy získal podporu voličů? Cílem této knihy je popsat a analyzovat postupy, jimiž se Donaldu Trumpovi podařilo využít trhlin v socioekonomické a kulturní soudržnosti Američanů k dosažení volebního vítězství. Kniha poskytuje hlubší, kontextuální porozumění a dešifraci šachového pozadí voleb 2016, čímž pro pozorovatele v České republice činí řadu Trumpových kroků čitelnější, než se jeví v jeho mediálním portrétu.
