Grand Hotel Europa
Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer’s moving and addictive masterpiece of European identity, nostalgia and the end of an era.
‘The love of my life lives in my past. That is, despite the alliteration, a terrible sentence to write. I do not want to come to the conclusion that, as it is the case for the hotel where I am staying and the continent after which it is named, the best time is behind me and that I have little more to expect from the future than to live on my past.’
A writer takes residence in the illustrious but decaying Grand Hotel Europa, to think about where things went wrong with Clio, with whom he fell in love in Genoa and moved to Venice. He reconstructs a compelling story of love in times of mass tourism, about their trips to Malta, Palmaria, Portovenere and the Cinque Terre and their thrilling search for the last painting of Caravaggio. Meanwhile, he becomes fascinated by the mysteries of Grand Hotel Europe and gets more and more involved with the memorable characters who inhabit it, and who seem to come from a more elegant time. All the while, globalisation seems to be grabbing hold even on this place frozen in time.
Grand Hotel Europa is Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer’s masterly novel on the old continent, where so much history resides that there is no place left for a future and where the most realistic future perspectives are offered in the form of exploiting the past in the shape of tourism.

Fejős Éva immár negyedik sikerkönyvével jelentkezik, és ezúttal a rajongói által legjobbnak tartott "Hotel Bali" folytatásával, melyben beavatást nyerünk férjek, szeretők és szerelmek történetébe, bocsánatos és helyrehozhatatlan bűnök, valóra váltott és elszalasztott álmok, életreszóló leckék és szerelmek világába.

Rozprávky zo Sezamu
Rozprávky zo Sezamu sú prerozprávaním známych príbehov z tisíc a jednej noci. Pre detského čitateľa ich upravil významný poľský básnik Bolesław Leśmian. Prvý raz vyšli v roku 1912, kedy vyšla aj Leśmianova prvá básnická zbierka. Aj v nej sa javí očarenie zázračnosťou, ktorou sú preniknuté Rozprávky zo Sezamu.
Čary sú všade na každom mieste a v každom čase, hovorí básnik rozprávač v jednej rozprávke. S tým sa nedá nesúhlasiť, v rozprávke je to iste tak. Ale hoci sú tieto príbehy plné zázrakov a čarov, divu a obdivu, básnik ich rozpráva s jemným humorom. Uťahuje si aj z postáv, ktoré nám predstavuje ako sympatické. Aj ony majú svoje ľudské chybičky. Ich príhody sú niekedy strašidelné, ale čo je dôležité, vždy majú dobrý koniec.
Kniha v Poľsku vyšla v mnohých a mnohých vydaniach naposledy v roku 2021. Do slovenčiny ju preložil Jozef Fabuš a o to, aby sa kniha zapáčila aj slovenskému čitateľovi sa výraznou mierou postarala pôvabnými ilustráciami maliarka Katarína Smetanová.
Okrem bežného nákladu vychádza aj limitovaná edícia 100 kusov v zmenenej úprave a s krásnym obrázkom Katky Smetanovej navyše. Vychádza v edícii PROLES.
Postcards from Summer
The Notebook meets Love & Gelato in this heart-wrenching novel “full of deep romance and searing tragedy” (Kirkus Reviews) about a teen girl who travels to her late mother’s majestic summertime home to learn of the romance—and the tragedy—that changed her life forever.
Seventeen-year-old Lexi has always wanted to know more about the mother who passed away when she was only a child. But her dad will barely talk about her. He says he’d rather live in the present with Lexi, her stepmom, and her half-brother. Lexi loves her family, too, but is it so wrong to want to learn about the mom she never got to know?
When Lexi’s grandma dies and secretly leaves her a worn blue chest that belonged to Lexi’s mother, Lexi is ecstatic to find a treasure trove of keepsakes. Her mom held onto letters, pamphlets, flyers, and news articles all from the same beautiful summertime getaway: Mackinac Island—plus a cryptic postcard that hints at a forbidden romance. If Lexi wants answers, this island is where she needs to go.
Without telling her dad, Lexi goes to the gorgeous Mackinac Island in Lake Huron, reachable only by ferry. Cars are forbidden and bikes are the number one mode of transportation along the quaint cobblestone streets, and the magical hotel that rests alongside cozy cafés and bookshops. While following her mother’s footsteps, Lexi befriends an elderly former Broadway star and a charming young hotel worker while quickly falling in love with her surroundings.
But though the island may be beautiful, it’s hiding unfortunate secrets—some with her mother at the center. Could some questions be best left buried beneath the blue waters?

A Hedetske Full of Music
Foreword by Bob Stanley
On a sunny Saturday morning in May 1956, a fifteen-year-old, then called Harry Webb, was mooching down Waltham Cross High Street. He heard some music blaring out of a parked car. It stopped him in his tracks.
The song was 'Heartbreak Hotel' by Elvis Presley. It sounded like nothing he had ever heard before. In that instant, the schoolboy who was destined to take the hit parade by storm as Cliff Richard fell in love with rock and roll. It gave him the thrill, the purpose and the mission that has shaped his life ever since.
Cliff lives in and for music. And with 65 years as a hitmaker, the music filling his head is a broad category. His soundtrack begins by blasting us all back into that first life-changing explosion of rock and also includes great soul soul stars such as Aretha Franklin, longtime colleagues like Elton John, and much-missed close friends Cilla Black and Olivia Newton-John.
This book is meaningful to Cliff on many levels. The 30 or so songs here that make up the soundtrack to his life have each moved him deeply, but it's also about the legendary artists he met, and often got to know. He shares those stories and memories with you, too.
A Head Full of Music is a vibrant personal journey for Cliff, and it's a joy to accompany him on it. Get wired for sound with him and read on.
