Dodajme, že slovenská rozprávka je autorská, napísal ju Ľubomír Feldek a volá sa Keď Pán Boh a Svätý Peter chodili po Slovensku. Ľubomír Feldek pre deti jednu z rozprávok aj prebásnil. Jej názov je Prečo sa opica podobá človeku a pochádza z Mali.
Daisy Jones and The Six
From the author of CARRIE SOTO IS BACK, THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO and the bestselling MALIBU RISING
Everybody knows Daisy Jones and the Six.
From the moment Daisy walked barefoot on to the stage at the Whisky, she and the band were a sensation.
Their sound defined an era. Their albums were on every turntable. They played sold-out arenas from coast to coast.
Then, on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down.
They were lovers, friends, brothers. But they were also rivals.
This is the story of their legendary rise and irrevocable fall. A story of ambition, desire, heartbreak and music.
Everyone was there. Everyone remembers it differently. Nobody knew why they split. Until now...
Offspring, The - Rise and Fall, Rage And Grace: 15th Anniversary (Limited Edition) LP+Vinyl single
The Offspring je americká rocková skupina z Garden Grove v Kalifornii, založená v roku 1984.Pôvodne vznikla pod názvom Manic Subsidal, súčasnú zostavu kapely tvoria hlavný spevák a rytmický gitarista Bryan „Dexter“ Holland, hlavný gitarista Kevin „Noodles“ Wasserman, basgitarista Todd Morse a bubeník Brandon Pertzborn. Počas svojej 39-ročnej kariéry vydali Offspring desať štúdiových albumov a zažili aj množstvo zmien v zostave, najmä s bubeníkom. Ich najdlhšie slúžiacim bubeníkom bol Ron Welty, ktorý v roku 1987 nahradil pôvodného bubeníka Jamesa Lilju a zostal s Offspring 16 rokov. The Offspring sú často pripisované (spolu s ostatnými kalifornskými punkovými kapelami Green Day, NOFX, Bad Religion a Rancid) zásluhy za oživenie mainstreamového záujmu o punk rock v 90. rokoch. Celosvetovo predali viac ako 40 miliónov nahrávok, čo z nich robí jednu z najpredávanejších punkrockových kapiel v histórii. "Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace" je ôsmy štúdiový album The Offspring. Bol vydaný 17. júna 2008 v Spojených štátoch a o týždeň skôr v Japonsku. Je to prvý album skupiny od vydania albumu Splinter v roku 2003, prvý v spolupráci s producentom Bobom Rockom.

Daisy Jones and The Six
THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Daily Mirror best fiction pick of 2019A Daily Express best book of 2019'I LOVE it . . .
I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON
They were the new icons of rock and roll, fated to burn bright and not fade away. But on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down. There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom.
There was Camila, the frontman's wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode - and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy. There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn't ready for her. And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour.
They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames. It's never just about the music...

Pride and Prejudice and the City
From the New York Times bestselling coauthor of Five Feet Apart and She Gets the Girl comes a fresh and inventive sapphic romantic comedy that's What If It's Us meets Bridgerton. What if you found a once-in-a-lifetime love...just not in your lifetime? Seventeen-year-old Audrey Cameron has lost her spark. After an embarrassing run-in with her ex-boyfriend, she's told that she needs to get back out there and take risks.
What she doesn't expect is to be transported to Regency England! Lucy Sinclair has her own problems - stifled by her father and trying to avoid an unwanted marriage proposal - when Audrey lands into her life, claiming to be from two hundred years in the future, it's a welcome distraction. While the girls try to understand what's happening and how to send Audrey home, their sparks make a comeback in a most unexpected way - instead of falling for their suitors and the happily-ever-afters everyone expects of them, they fall for each other. Can their love story survive impossible circumstances? A swoony time-travelling YA romance set in the regency era about finding your spark - a lesbian Jane Austen story.
I was not Born for Quiet
Thanks to Janko Kráľ, as John Minahane has written, the Váh is Slovakia’s most mystical river. Again and again the poet returns to his community via that flagship poem of Slovak romanticism, The Enchanted Maiden in the Váh and Odd Johnny. Characteristic in Kráľ’s poetry is his focus on the inward side of events and stories, turned inside out, since one has to turn one’s clothing inside out/ and leap in the middle of the Váh. By this means, metaphysical space is opened. There the spirit is so blended together with reality that it becomes possible to break the spell on the maiden (motherland) in the river Lethe, which is life’s inverted clepsydra. Time always freshly poses the question, which young man wants to give body to his thought. And what unwinds from that is not only a defiant faith in the mission of poetry, but also Janko Kráľ’s courage to stand up for the language and national rights of Slovaks in 1848. To give the time a face where our identity is mirrored.
To this day we do not know exactly how Janko Kráľ looked in reality. Using the surviving descriptions of Kráľ’s appearance, he therefore created a metaphysical portrait with the digital tool Metahuman Creator, which is designed for creating figures for video games. Subsequently he placed this virtual figure in a contemporary context, in the form of manipulated photographs from the mass media.

Louže zvaná oceán
Čtenáři se dostává do ruky kniha, která nemá dosud na českém knižním trhu obdoby. Podtitul „převážně potápěčské povídky,“ vyjadřuje mnohé. Jedná se jak o krátké črty - literárně zpracované postřehy vycházející z autorovy mnohaleté potápěčské praxe, tak i o příběhy vykonstruované, zahrnující však i pasáže protkané osobními prožitky. Je určena širokému okruhu čtenářů, nejen těm, kteří propadli kouzlu potápění. Spektrum námětů je rozsáhlé, od dobrodružných, přes příběhy inspirované rozdílnými pohledy žen a mužů na okolní svět a z toho plynoucími konflikty, až po sex a také sci-fi. Středem všeho dění zůstává oceán, moře a potápěčský sport.

Nový prekrásne ilustrovaný román Patricka Nessa je síce vyrozprávaný hore nohami, ale v duchu dnes už kultovej knihy Sedem minút po polnoci. Lovecký húf veľrýb narazí na mincu s iniciálkami T. W. Najobávanejší ľudský námorník Toby Wick tým vyzýva kapitánku na súboj. To ale nemôže byť pravda. Toby Wick je predsa legenda, ktorú si veľryby vymysleli. Ale toto nie je príbeh o Toby Wickovi. Toto je príbeh o hneve, nenávisti a našej potrebe bojovať až do úplného konca, keď už neostáva nič iné len česť a smrť.
It Was Vulgar and It Was Beautiful
The story of art collective Gran Fury--which fought back during the AIDS crisis through direct action and community-made propaganda--offers lessons in love and grief.
In the late 1980s, the AIDS pandemic was annihilating queer people, intravenous drug users, and communities of color in America, and disinformation about the disease ran rampant. Out of the activist group ACT UP (AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power), an art collective that called itself Gran Fury formed to campaign against corporate greed, government inaction, stigma, and public indifference to the epidemic.
Writer Jack Lowery examines Gran Fury's art and activism from iconic images like the "Kissing Doesn't Kill" poster to the act of dropping piles of fake bills onto the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Lowery offers a complex, moving portrait of a collective and its members, who built essential solidarities with each other and whose lives evidenced the profound trauma of enduring the AIDS crisis.
Gran Fury and ACT UP's strategies are still used frequently by the activists leading contemporary movements. In an era when structural violence and the devastation of COVID-19 continue to target the most vulnerable, this belief in the power of public art and action persists.
