Calamity
They told David it was impossible - that even the Reckoners had never killed a High Epic. Yet, Steelheart - invincible, immortal, unconquerable - is dead. And he died by David's hand.
Eliminating Steelheart was supposed to make life more simple. Instead, it only made David realize he has questions. Big ones. And there's no one in Newcago who can give him the answers he needs.
He found some of those answers in FIREFIGHT. Now, he has to decide what to do with them . . .
Calamity is about what you do to fill your heart once you have vengeance.

Blízko divokého srdca
Blízko divokého srdca je prvý román brazílskej spisovateľky Clarice Lispectorovej. Dielo, ktoré napísala ako dvadsaťdvaročná študentka v malej prenajatej izbičke, vyvolalo okamžitý ohlas. Kritici ho nazvali najlepším
románom, aký kedy žena napísala v portugalskom jazyku, a jeho mladučkú autorku označili za najvýraznejšiu osobnosť brazílskej literatúry. Príbeh Joany, ktorá spomína na detstvo i na roky nevydareného manželstva, je
prienikom do vnútorného sveta hĺbavej dievčiny a neskôr mladej ženy, čo len ťažko hľadá pochopenie u ľudí okolo seba, a zároveň úsilím preniknúť do podstaty ľudskej existencie.
Pri čítaní diel brazílskej autorky Clarice Lispectorovej má človek často pocit, akoby sa ponáral do jazera s temnou vodou, kde ho strach z utopenia neodrádza od túžby pohrúžiť sa do tajomstva. Tí, ktorí sú pripravení vrhnúť
sa do týchto vôd, sa v jej dielach dočkajú odmeny: neraz im pripomenú, že je tu niekto, kto hlboko v sebe skrýva rovnaké obavy, vášne a dokonca zdanlivo neľudské myšlienky.

The Imitation of the Rose
Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith
Thirteen short tales from one of the most blistering and innovative writers of the twentieth century.
The small incidents of life become moments of inner revelation in the luminous writing of Clarice Lispector. A woman contemplating a vase of roses after a nervous breakdown; a tangled mother-daughter relationship; a man's abandonment of a dog; an animal in a zoo: each one leads to mystery and self-discovery, delight and devastation.
Too Much of Life
This exhilarating collection of non-fiction sees one of the greatest twentieth-century writers meditating on the moments that make up a life
'How did I so unwittingly transform the joy of living into the great luxury of being alive?'
Between 1967 and 1977, the internationally renowned author Clarice Lispector wrote weekly dispatches from her desk in Rio for the Jornal do Brasil. Already famous for her revolutionary, interior, metaphysical novels and short stories, in her Chronicles she turned her attention to the everyday, reshaping the material of her life into profound, touching and funny, tiny revelations.
Observing the world around her, small encounters like hearing tales of the lost loves of a taxi driver, or the bitterness lurking beneath the prettiness of an old friend, become an exposition of the currents and foibles that define our lives. Everything from the meaning of cosmonauts to the new ideas, writers and artists that populate the sparkling international world of the sixties and seventies are considered and transformed into jewels of insight, delight and devastation.
Sincere and playful, exhilarating and contemplative, Too Much of Life: Complete Chronicles opens up a new way of seeing the world.

Down and Out in Paris and London
'You can live on a shilling a day in Paris if you know how. But it is a complicated business'
As a struggling writer in his twenties, Orwell lived as a down-and-out among the poorest members of society. In this, his early memoir, Orwell recalls with vivid clarity his time working as a penniless dishwasher in Paris, pawning clothes to buy a day's worth of bread and wine, sleeping in bug-infested bunks, trading survival skills and cigarette butts with fellow tramps, and trudging between London's workhouse spikes for a few hours' sleep and tea.
With all of the sensitivity and compassion that Orwell is known and loved for, he exposed the hardships of poverty and gave readers an unprecedented look at life lived on the fringes of society.

The Apple in the Dark
Described by Clarice Lispector as 'the best one', this intoxicating portrayal of a man searching for his destiny is her mystical, enigmatic masterpiece
'All I've got is hunger. And that instable way of grasping an apple in the dark-without letting it fall'
Martim, believing that he has committed a murder, flees the city and escapes into the night. Wandering through the vastness of nature he arrives, in a state of fear and wonder, at a remote ranch run by two women. There Martim finds work and, as he labours in the blistering heat of the Brazilian summer, becomes transfigured; remade into something else entirely.
