Lacná kniha Októberi vidék (-70%)
Ray Bradbury, a sci-fi egyik legnagyobb alakja és a novella amerikai mestere már a korai írásaival híveket szerzett magának olvasók és kritikusok között egyaránt, ám aki elsősorban a Marsbéli krónikákról vagy a Fahrenheit 451-ről ismeri, azt ebben a kötetben meglepetés érheti.
Egy festői mexikói faluban a halál csupán turistalátványosság.
Egy város alatti városban megfulladt szeretők csendben ismét egymáséi lehetnek.
Egy karnevállal utazó kis ember legédesebb vágya napról napra beteljesedik.
Egy beteg fiúnak a hűséges kutyája az egyetlen kapcsolata a külvilággal. És a túlvilággal.
Ez a tizenkilenc borzongató és baljós novella Ray Bradbury másik arcát mutatja meg. Azt az írót, aki kíváncsi az élet és a fantázia sötét oldalára, aki ragyogóan megragadja a világ őrültségének, zűrzavarának és akadályainak lényegét. Az Októberi vidék karakterei élnek, álmodnak, dolgoznak, majd meghalnak - és néha ismét élnek, csak hogy felfedezzék, bár gyakran túl későn, hogy az embernek magas árat kell fizetnie azért, hogy valahova tartozhasson.

Metamorphosis
Franz Kafka's 1915 novella of unexplained horror and nightmarish transformation became a worldwide classic and remains, a century later, one of the most widely read works of fiction in the world. It is the story of travelling salesman Gregor Samsa, who wakes one morning to find himself transformed into a monstrous insect. This hugely influential work inspired George Orwell, Albert Camus, Jorge Louis Borges and Ray Bradbury and continues to unsettle millions of readers. In her new translation, Susan Bernofsky strives to capture both the humour and the humanity in this macabre tale, underscoring the ways in which Gregor Samsa's grotesque metamorphosis is just the physical manifestation of his longstanding spiritual impoverishment.

A Toynbee-átalakító
A világ egyetlen időutazója száz év elteltével végre feltárja a titkát. Az Orient Expresszen egy kísértet is utazik. Egy öregember a rendezett múltján keresztül a végzetes jövőjét próbálja megváltoztatni. A Toynbee-átalakító egy olyan gyűjtemény, mely Bradbury régi és új olvasóit egyaránt megszólítja. A legtöbb történet életünk ismerős szobáiban és tájain, gyakori gondolatainkban és emlékeinkben kezdődik, hogy aztán a képzelet legtávolabbi zugaiba repítsen. Bradbury lebilincsel bennünket, ahogy a történetei kibontakoznak, és a valóság titkos repedéseiben feltárul a csodálatos és a váratlan.

Az illusztrált ember
A nagy klasszikus új fordításban! Az illusztrált ember nemcsak attól más, hogy az egész testét képek borítják, hanem attól is, hogy ha az ember sokáig nézi, akkor ezek a képek életre kelnek és történeteket mesélnek jelenről és jövőről. Baljós, óva intő tanulsággal. A történetek akár a Földön játszódnak, akár a Marson, középpontjukban mindig az ember áll. Az ember, aki akkor is a társát támadja, amikor szkafanderben tehetetlenül sodródik az űrben. Aki a marslakókat is meg akarja téríteni. Aki inkább robothasonmást készíttet, minthogy maga oldja meg az élete problémáit. Ray Bradbury 1951-ben megjelent második novelláskötete immár évtizedek óta klasszikusnak számít, és mit sem vesztett sem aktualitásából, sem erejéből. Az olvasó ráadásul most új fordításban olvashatja ezeket a felejthetetlen történeteket.

Look Homeward, Angel
The first novel by the great American novelist, now the subject of a major new film, Genius, starring Jude Law, Colin Firth, Dominic West and Nicole Kidman. Eugene Gant, born in 1900 to hard-drinking stone-cutter Oliver and entrepreneurial Eliza, grows up in small-town America. Both lonely outsider and passionate chronicler of American life, Eugene experiences upheaval and family tragedy before coming to realise that he must leave his home behind if he is to forge his own path in the world. This is the dazzlingly rich first novel from one of the most brilliant and mercurial voices of early twentieth-century, who was a major influence on writers including Hunter S Thompson, Ray Bradbury, Philip Roth and the Beats. This new edition includes an introduction by Elizabeth Kostova, author of The Historian. Wolfe's second novel, Of Time and the River, continuing the story of Eugene Gant, is also now available in Penguin Classics.

Haunted Castles
Part of a new six-volume series of the best in classic horror, selected by award-winning director Guillermo del Toro Filmmaker and longtime horror literature fan Guillermo del Toro serves as the curator for the Penguin Horror series, a new collection of classic tales and poems by masters of the genre. Included here are some of del Toro's favorites, from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Ray Russell's short story 'Sardonicus', considered by Stephen King to be 'perhaps the finest example of the modern Gothic ever written', to Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House and stories by Ray Bradbury, Joyce Carol Oates, Ted Klein, and Robert E. Howard. These stunningly creepy deluxe hardcovers will be perfect additions to the shelves of horror, sci-fi, fantasy, and paranormal aficionados everywhere. Haunted Castles Haunted Castles is the definitive, complete collection of Ray Russell's masterful Gothic horror stories, including the famously terrifying novella trio of 'Sardonicus', 'Sanguinarius', and 'Sagittarius'. The characters that sprawl through Haunted Castles are frightful to the core: the heartless monster holding two lovers in limbo; the beautiful dame journeying down a damned road toward depravity (with the help of an evil gypsy); the man who must wear his fatal crimes on his face in the form of an awful smile. Engrossing, grotesque, perverted, and completely entrancing, Russell's Gothic tales are the best kind of dreadful. Ray Russell was born in 1924 in Chicago, Illinois, and served in the United States Air Force during World War II in the South Pacific. After the war, he attended the Chicago Conservatory of Music and eventually joined the editorial staff at Playboy, where he published such writers as Ray Bradbury, Kurt Vonnegut, Richard Matheson, Jack Finney, Robert Bloch, and Charles Beaumont. His best-known work, 'Sardonicus', was called by Stephen King 'perhaps the finest example of the modern Gothic ever written'. He died in Los Angeles in 1999. Guillermo Del Toro is a Mexican director, producer, screenwriter, novelist, and designer, most famous for his Academy Award-winning film, Pan's Labyrinth, and the Hellboy film franchise. He has received the Nebula, Hugo, and Bram Stoker awards and is an avid collector and student of arcane memorabilia and weird fiction.

Rettegés a felhők felett
Stephen King, a novellaválogatás egyik szerkesztője - és szerzője - a következő szavakkal ajánlja a könyvet:
"Van olyan ember ezen a modern, technológiavezérelt világon, aki élvezi a repülést? Bármilyen nehéz is elhinni, van. A pilóták szeretik, a legtöbb gyerek szereti - bár nem a csecsemők, mert a légnyomásváltozás felkavarja őket -, a repülés megszállottai is szeretik, de nagyjából ennyi. A többieknek a légi közlekedés felér egy végbéltükrözés minden bájával és izgalmával.
Hadd tegyem fel a megfelelő kérdést: van-e olyan emberi tevékenység - bármilyen -, amely alkalmasabb lenne horror- és izgalmas történetek antológiájának, mint amit éppen a kezedben tartasz? Kedves Olvasó, kétlem."
King és szerzőtársai gondoskodnak róla, hogy minden oldalon új izgalom várjon mindannyiunkat. Velünk repül E. Michael Lewis, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Richard Matheson, Ambrose Bierce, E. C. Tubb, Thom Bissell, Dan Simmons, Cody Goodfellow, John Varley, Joe Hill, David J. Schow, Ray Bradbury, Bev Vincent, Roald Dahl, Peter Tremayne, James L. Dickey.

American Supernatural Tales
Part of a new six-volume series of the best in classic horror, selected by award-winning director Guillermo del Toro. American Supernatural Tales is the ultimate collection of weird and frightening American short fiction. As Stephen King will attest, the popularity of the occult in American literature has only grown since the days of Edgar Allan Poe. The book celebrates the richness of this tradition with chilling contributions from some of the nation's brightest literary lights, including Poe himself, H. P. Lovecraft, Shirley Jackson, Ray Bradbury, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and-of course-Stephen King. By turns phantasmagoric, spectral, and demonic, this is a frighteningly good collection of stories. S. T. Joshi is a freelance writer, scholar, and editor whose previous books include Documents of American Prejudice; In Her Place: A Documentary History of Prejudice against Women; God's Defenders: What They Believe and Why They Are Wrong; Atheism: A Reader; H. L. Mencken on Religion; The Agnostic Reader; and What Is Man? And Other Irreverent Essays by Mark Twain.

Fahrenheit 451 és más történetek
Az HBO saját gyártású filmje alapjául szolgáló könyv
Több mint hatvan évvel a megjelenése után Ray Bradbury világszerte elismert regénye, a Fahrenheit 451 igazi klasszikusként hat a világirodalomban a zord, disztópikus jövőábrázolásával. A könyv üzenete soha nem volt aktuálisabb, mint napjainkban.
Guy Montag tűzőrként dolgozik. Az a munkája, hogy elégesse a könyveket... a házakkal együtt, ahol eldugták azokat. Montag soha nem kérdőjelezi meg a pusztítást, amit a munkájával végez, az estéi pedig unalmasan telnek a feleségével, Mildreddel, aki az egész napját a televízió bűvöletében tölti. Aztán egy nap Montag találkozik a különc szomszéd lánnyal, Clarisse-szal, aki egy olyan múltról mesél neki, amelyben az emberek még nem féltek, és bemutat neki egy olyan jelent, amelyben az emberek a könyvekben rejlő ötleteket felhasználva gondolkodnak. És akkor Guy Montag hirtelen megkérdőjelez mindent, amit addig igaznak hitt.

Everyone is Watching
'Beautiful, kaleidoscopic . . . everyone should be watching Megan Bradbury from now on' Eimear McBride, Baileys Prize-winning author of A Girl Is a Half-formed Thing New York: A city that inspires. A city that draws people in. A city where everyone is watching, waiting to see what will happen next. 1967. Robert Mapplethorpe knows he is an artist. From his childhood home in Queens he yearns for the heat and excitement of the city, the press of other people's bodies. He wants to be watched, he wants to be known. 1891. Walt Whitman has already found fame, and has settled into his own sort of old age. Still childlike, still passionate, he travels with his friend and biographer Bucke to the city he has always adored, the scene of his greatest triumphs and rejections. 1922. Robert Moses is a man with a vision. Standing on the edge of Long Island he knows what it could become. Walking down a street in Brooklyn he sees its future. He is the man who will build modern New York. 2013. Edmund White is back in New York. It's the city of his youth, of his life and loves. He remembers days of lazy pleasure, nights of ecstasy and euphoria. But years have gone by since then. Everyone is Watching is a novel about the men and women who have defined New York. Through the lives and perspectives of these great creators, artists and thinkers, and through other iconic works of art that capture its essence, New York itself solidifies. Complex, rich, sordid, tantalizing, it is constantly changing and evolving. Both intimate and epic in its sweep, Everyone is Watching is a love letter to New York and its people - past, present and future.

Ghost Stories
Tales about ghosts are as old as human culture itself but the ghost story as a distinguished literary form reached its apogee in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As traditional religions declined in the West during those years, people looked for new ways of describing the spiritual realities explained by religion. The ghost story is a literary expression of this need, its rise corresponding to the growing popularity of Spiritualism. Ghost stories balance the increasingly powerful scientific materialism of the age with intimations that there are other orders of experience which we cannot define and only glimpse.
The Everyman selection of ghost stories includes examples from this period by major writers such as Robert Louis Stevenson, Guy de Maupassant, Henry James and Edith Wharton. M. R. James is featured as a specialist in the genre. Later writers include Elizabeth Bowen, Penelope Lively and Ray Bradbury.
One feature of this collection is to show that there is more to the ghost story than the thrill of horror, important though that is. These stories include comedy and tragedy, pathos, drama and even poetry. Each is a masterpiece in its own right, irrespective of whether or not we believe in the realm of spectres.
