Clapton Eric - 24 Nights: Rock 3LP
Eric Patrick Clapton, prezývaný ako Slowhand, je jeden z najúspešnejších anglických rockových gitaristov, spevákov a skladateľov 20. a 21. storočia. Je držiteľ ceny Grammy Award, a dosiahol aj to, že bol trikrát uvedený do Rokenrolovej siene slávy.V rokoch 1990 a 1991 vystupoval Eric Clapton 42 nocí v Royal Albert Hall v Londýne; 18 koncertov v roku 1990 a 24 v roku 1991. Počas týchto vystúpení vystupoval Clapton v troch rôznych zostavách: rocková kapela, bluesová kapela a orchester. Obrovský počin nacvičovania vystúpení troch výrazne odlišných žánrov a setlistov bol náročnejší kvôli zostavám rockových šou, ktoré sa pohybovali od 4, 9 alebo 13 členov kapely. Medzi hosťujúcich hudobníkov patrili Buddy Guy, Albert Collins, Robert Cray a Phil Collins. Orchester dirigoval zosnulý Michael Kamen.Mnohé z vystúpení boli natočené, zaznamenané a brovské množstvo zvukového a filmového materiálu bolo starostlivo obnovené a kvalitatívne vylepšené. Toto vydanie obsahuje nahrávky z rockovej show.

Gwen and Art Are Not in Love
Gwen, the quick-witted Princess of England, and Arthur, future lord and general gadabout, have been betrothed since birth. Unfortunately, the only thing they can agree on is that they hate each other.
When Gwen catches Art kissing a boy and Art discovers where Gwen hides her diary (complete with racy entries about Bridget Leclair, the kingdom's only female knight), they become reluctant allies. By pretending to fall for each other, their mutual protection will be assured.
But how long can they keep up the ruse? With Gwen growing closer to Bridget, and Art becoming unaccountably fond of Gabriel, Gwen's infuriatingly serious, bookish brother, the path to true love is looking far from straight ...

Obviously she'll tell Heather (eventually). And the first guy she's properly liked in forever (probably). Absolutely nobody will know - just till she sorts herself out . . .
So can Birdy carry off a summer at a luxury Scottish hotel pretending to be a world-class wine expert? And can she find the courage to fall in love, even if it means telling the truth?
Run away with Birdy Finch - the messy heroine with a heart of gold!

Agatha Christie
'Nobody in the world was more inadequate to act the heroine than I was.'
Why did Agatha Christie spend her career pretending that she was 'just' an ordinary housewife, when clearly she wasn't? As Lucy Worsley says, 'She was thrillingly, scintillatingly modern'. She went surfing in Hawaii, she loved fast cars, and she was intrigued by the new science of psychology, which helped her through devastating mental illness.
So why - despite all the evidence to the contrary - did Agatha present herself as a retiring Edwardian lady of leisure?
She was born in 1890 into a world which had its own rules about what women could and couldn't do. Lucy Worsley's biography is not just of an internationally renowned bestselling writer. It's also the story of a person who, despite the obstacles of class and gender, became an astonishingly successful working woman.
With access to personal letters and papers that have rarely been seen, Lucy Worsley's biography is both authoritative and entertaining and makes us realise what an extraordinary pioneer Agatha Christie was - truly a woman who wrote the twentieth century.
Happy High Status
Redefine what confidence looks like at home and at work.
Everyone wants to be able to face challenging situations without feeling daunted, intimidated or stressed. But no-one wants to be labelled over-confident, arrogant or smarmy, or to get caught up in their own hype. So how can you feel authentically confident - without the cringe, and without pretending to be something you're not?
Happy high status is a new way of thinking about confidence and how you relate to yourself. It's how actors and comedians enhance their presence on stage and screen. It lends strength and energy to your interactions, big and small, and is a way of projecting status, minimising self-doubt and moving effortlessly through life.
Drawing on research, practical tips and lessons from the worlds of comedy, film, television, politics and sport, Viv Groskop offers a masterclass in how you can access this new form of confidence at any time. All, crucially, with no risk of anyone thinking that you are your own biggest fan.

Lea Fekete
Reprezentatívna obrazová publikácia poprednej slovenskej textilnej výtvarníčky a módnej návrhárky Ley Fekete. V slovenskom kontexte ide o prvú monografiu o módnej návrhárke.
Fekete svojou multižánrovosťou prekračuje hranice voľnej autorskej tvorby od odevnej, textilnej k šperku, od zákazkovej modelovej tvorby k produktovému dizajnu, od módy ku kostýmu. Predstaviť čitateľom jej tvorbu si preto vyžadovalo spoluautorský tím. Publikáciu otvára veľmi osobný príhovor režisérky, scenáristky a spisovateľky Evy Borušovičovej, ktorá s Leou Fekete opakovane spolupracovala. Nástup Ley na módnu scénu v turbulentných 90. rokoch predstavili historička umenia Katarína Hubová a módna teoretička a publicistka Dana Lapšanská. Historička módy Eva Hasalová analyzuje odevnú tvorbu Ley Fekete a Viera Kleinová, historička umenia a kurátorka niektorých Leiných výstav, sa v dvoch samostatných textoch vyjadrila k tvorbe šperkov a bytových textílií. Leu Fekete ako kostýmovú výtvarníčku predstavila historička umenia a divadelná teoretička Zuzana Gašpar Koblišková. Knihu dopĺňa rozhovor so známym slovenským violončelistom Jozefom Luptákom, ktorý si na vystúpenia oblieka už takmer 20 rokov košele od Ley Fekete. V závere nechýba prehľadne spracované podrobné curriculum vitae.
Táto mimoriadne pútavá a vizuálne impozantná monografia uspokojí nielen odbornú verejnosť, ale aj všetkých milovníkov módy a krásna.
Publikácia je dvojjazyčná – slovensko-anglická.
The representative illustrated publication by the leading Slovak textile artist and fashion designer Lea Fekete. It is the first monograph on a fashion designer in the Slovak context.
Fekete's multi-genre work crosses the boundaries of free authorial creation from clothing, textile to jewellery, from custom model making to product design, from fashion to costume. Presenting her work to readers therefore required a team of co-authors. The publication opens with a very personal introduction by the director, screenwriter, and writer Eva Borušovičová, who has collaborated with Lea Fekete on numerous occasions. Lea's emergence on the fashion scene in the turbulent 1990s is presented by the art historian Katarína Hubová and the fashion theorist and publicist Dana Lapšanská. The fashion historian Eva Hasalová analyses Lea Fekete's clothing production and Viera Kleinová, art historian and curator of some of Lea's exhibitions, comments on the creation of jewellery and home textiles in two separate texts. Lea Fekete as a costume designer was introduced by the art historian and theatre theorist Zuzana Gašpar Koblišková. The book is accompanied by an interview with the well-known Slovak cellist Jozef Lupták, who has been wearing Lea Fekete's shirts for his performances for almost 20 years. A clearly detailed curriculum vitae is included at the end.
This extremely engaging and visually impressive monograph will satisfy not only the professional public, but also all lovers of fashion and beauty.
The publication is bilingual: in Slovak and English.
The Crow War - Army of Shadows

Why does she feel that her and Trivian's relationship is constantly disrupted by someone or something? Is her unexpected deepening relationship with Darrek the cause?
Or is it because of the mysterious circumstances that almost cost Syra's life and her only hope is blood transfusion?
Only her father can be a donor.
There is no time for lies. Syra's life is at stake...

Sharlot and George's story starts how all good love stories do - they're catfished by their own parents. When Sharlot Citra is caught with her very hot (but very secret) boyfriend by her traditional mother, she finds herself whisked away from LA to Indonesia for a summer of 'getting back to her roots.
