A Bridgerton család 1: A herceg és én
A regény alapján készült sorozat 2020 decemberétől látható a Netflixen. Létezik-e nagyobb kihívás a londoni előkelő társaság ambiciózus anyái számára, mint egy nőtlen herceg, akihez lányukat örömest feleségül adnák? Minden jel arra mutat, hogy Simon Basset meg fogja kérni legjobb barátja húga, a bájos és okos Daphne Bridgerton kezét. Ami csak kettejük titka: házasságról szó sincs, csak így kívánják Simontól távol tartani a lányaikat férjhez adni kívánó, igen aktív társasági hölgyeket. Daphne pedig, mivel hercegi udvarló találta kívánatosnak, később alkalmas kérőket kaphat. Ám miközben Daphne sorra keringőzi Simonnal a bálokat, igen nehéz arra gondolnia, hogy az egész csak színlelés. A férfi ravaszkás mosolya talán, de tekintete felragyogása bizonyosan azt a hatást éri el, hogy Daphne beleszeret a szép hercegbe. Ez már egyáltalán nem színlelés. A lány a lehetetlennel próbálkozik: megpróbálja meggyőzni a gyönyörű szoknyavadászt, hogy okos kis tervüket…

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."

A key backlist title from the highly acclaimed author of The Naked and the Dead and The Fight". War hero, ex-Congressman, a professor of 'popular but somewhat notorious reputation', television personality and husband of the rich and beautiful Deborah ('a girl who would have been bored by a diamond as big as the Ritz'), Stephen Rojack lived the "American Dream". But his enviable life concealed a strange tension, the constant 'itch to jump', and when one day he finally cracks and strangles his luscious wife, he unleashes a personality of undreamt-of ferocity. A wanted murderer, Rojack is suddenly catapulted into an alien world of gangsters, crumbling tenements and downtown bars. Here, he meets Cherry, a small-time singer who ekes out her living in sleazy nightclubs, waiting for a break. She's the woman Rojack falls for, dangerously, desperately, tragically!

Michelangelo. The Complete Works. Paintings, Sculptures, Architecture
Before reaching the tender age of 30, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) had already sculpted Pieta and David, two of the most famous sculptures in the entire history of art. As a sculptor, painter, draftsman, and architect, the achievements of this Italian master are unique-no artist before or after him has ever produced such a vast, multifaceted, and wide-ranging oeuvre.
This fresh TASCHEN edition traces Michelangelo's ascent to the cultural elite of the Renaissance. Ten richly illustrated chapters cover the artist's paintings, sculptures, and architecture, including a close analysis of the artist's tour de force frescoes in the Sistine Chapel. Full-page reproductions and enlarged details allow readers to appreciate the finest details in the artist's repertoire, while the book's biographical essay considers Michelangelo's more personal traits and circumstances, such as his solitary nature, his thirst for money and commissions, his immense wealth, and his skill as a property investor.

Architecture
A groundbreaking history of architecture told through the relationship between buildings and energy
The story of architecture is the story of humanity. The buildings we live in, from the humblest pre-historic huts to today's skyscrapers, reveal our priorities and ambitions, our family structures and power structures. And to an extent that hasn't been explored until now, architecture has been shaped in every era by our access to energy, from fire to farming to fossil fuels.
In this ground-breaking history of world architecture, Barnabas Calder takes us on a dazzling tour of some of the most astonishing buildings of the past fifteen thousand years, from Uruk, via Ancient Rome and Victorian Liverpool, to China's booming megacities. He reveals how every building - from the Parthenon to the Great Mosque of Damascus to a typical Georgian house - was influenced by the energy available to its architects, and why this matters.
Today architecture consumes so much energy that 40% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions come from the construction and running of buildings. If we are to avoid catastrophic climate change then now, more than ever, we need beautiful but also intelligent buildings, and to retrofit - not demolish - those that remain. Both a celebration of human ingenuity and a passionate call for greater sustainability, this is a history of architecture for our times.

Američan v Gulagu
Tato kniha vyšla poprvé v USA v roce 1975 a nyní, téměř po padesáti letech vychází poprvé v Evropě, a to v České republice. Pojednává o osudu dvacetiletého amerického muže Alexandra Dolguna, neprávem obviněného ze špionáže. Tento skutečný příběh se odehrává ve třícátých letech minulého století, kdy Dolgun přijíždí se svým otcem do Sovětského svazu. Otec se smluvně zavázal pracovat v jedné moskevské automobilce. Syn získal práci na americkém velvyslanectví jako řadový úředník. Jenže žít v té době v Sovětském svazu jako cizinec, to nebyl jen tak obyčejný status. Cizinec byl de facto synonymem pro špiona. Po martiriu dlouhých výslechů strávil Alex osm krutých let v lágrech Gulagu. S jedinečností svého pohledu odvyprávěl v knize mnoho odstínů hrůzy, již prošel a odvyprávěl je se smyslem pro plastický detail. Je to kniha scén ne méně než dantovských a zároveň kniha o nezničitelnosti naděje a vůle k životu. Velmi odborný a fundovaný doslov ke knize napsala paní prof. PhDr. Milada Polišenská, CSc.

Lacná kniha Martin Gerboc - Une Saison en Enfer (-70%)
Monografická publikace, představující výběr z více jak dvacetiletého malířského díla Martina Gerboce (1971), odkazuje ve svém názvu ke knize Arthura Rimbauda Une saison en enfer a podobně jako v poezii prokletého básníka kontrastuje krása a ošklivost, v Gerbocově díle stojí děs po boku rozkoši. Právě hranice, kde se obě charakteristiky stýkají, je pro Gerboce místem, kde setrvává, je jím fascinován a zkoumá je coby nebezpečnou zónu samoty a strachu. Výrazovým prostředkem je mu punková estetika ošklivosti nebo ještě lépe estetika terorismu, která svou otevřeností vyvolává nejdříve odpor a nevoli, je však ve své záhadnosti přitažlivá. Téměř monochromní barevnost odkazuje na barvy těla, jeho vnějšek i vnitřek, krev, kůži, sliznice, oheň i hnilobu. Tematicky se Gerboc obrací k berlínskému kabaretu dvacátých a třicátých let minulého století - tavícímu kotlíku dekadentních kulturních tradic střední Evropy, dále k pornografii a sexualitě versus erotizujícím náboženským motivům či obrazům Francisca Goyi. Umělcova tvorba je často odrazem několika souběžně probíhajících dějů. Divák v tomto osobním střetu čelí svému vlastnímu podvědomí, skrytým touhám a zakázaným rozkoším. Kniha vychází v dvoujazyčném anglicko-českém vydání.
