It Ends With Us
Lily hasn't always had it easy, but that's never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She's come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up – she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily's life suddenly seems almost too good to be true.
Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He's also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily, but Ryle's complete aversion to relationships is disturbing.
As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan – her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.
With this bold and deeply personal novel, Colleen Hoover delivers a heart-wrenching story that breaks exciting new ground for her as a writer. It Ends With Us is an unforgettable tale of love that comes at the ultimate price.

Lacná kniha The Song Before it is Sung (-50%)
On 20 July 1944, Adolf Hitler narrowly escaped an assassin's bomb. Axel von Gottberg and his conspirators were hunted down and hanged from meat-hooks, and the executions filmed. Sixty years later, Conrad Senior is left a legacy of papers by von Gottberg's close friend, the legendary Oxford professor Elya Mendel, and becomes obsessed with what they reveal and finding the brutal film. Award-winning writer Justin Cartwright has conjured a masterwork that addresses the nature of friendship and what it means to be human, and it is a remarkable tapestry of passion, ideas, frailty and courage.

Lacná kniha Paint It Black (-50%)
Josie Tyrell, art model, teen runaway, and denizen of LA's 1980 punk rock scene, finds a chance at real love with art student Michael Faraday. A Harvard dropout and son of a renowned pianist, Michael introduces her to a world of sophistication, and to his spiritual quest for the beauty that shines through everyday experience. But when she receives a call from the Los Angeles County Coroner asking her to identify her lover's dead body, her bright dreams fade to black. 'What happens to a dream when the dreamer is gone?'. Josie finds herself drawn into a twisted relationship with Michael's pianist mother, Meredith, that reflects equal parts distrust and blind need. Passionate, wounded, fiercely alive, Josie Tyrell walks the brink of her own destruction as she fights to discover what is left of the brilliant vision of the future she and Michael once nurtured together. With the luxurious prose and fever pitch intensity that are her hallmarks, Janet Fitch has written a spellbinding new novel about love and betrayal.

Go For It /Jdi do toho
Knížka české hematoložky MUDr. Marie Lauermannové tentokrát nepojednává o tématech a problémech ryze odborných. Jde o soubor krátkých povídek či fejetonů k zamyšlení i k rozveselení inspirovaných každodenními postřehy ze světa, který nás obklopuje. Přesto se profese a lékařská praxe autorky samozřejmě nemůže nepromítnout do námětů jejích úvah a reflexí. Ty prolínají s radostmi i starostmi rodinného života ženy-profesionálky i matky, která se dle svých slov cítí být součástí generace „uprostřed“ – vedle svých pacientů má odpovědnost také za odrůstající, k dospělosti jdoucí děti a zároveň vidí vlastní stárnoucí rodiče, které začíná víc chápat. Zároveň se příslušníci této generace musejí vyrovnat s „novým“, stále se měnícím a přetechnizovaným světem a nakonec mu – jak říká autorka s trochou nadsázky – podléhají, aby přežili.
Stručné vyprávění psané lehkou rukou a jdoucí přímo k pointě možná někdy překvapí svou jednoduchostí, ale ta pramení z faktu, že jako první vznikl vždy anglický text, který byl až následně překládán do češtiny… Učení se angličtině se totiž nejen v očích autorky stává nutností, abychom rozuměli i vlastním dětem a světu kolem nás. Její kniha, jež obsahuje paralelně vedle sebe anglické i české verze fejetonů, je drobným příspěvkem ke snaze o toto porozumění.

Válka za studena - Serving it cold
Poprvé knižně publikovaný soubor Válka za studena je podobenstvím o kroužení kolem jádra nicoty. Fotografie ze základní vojenské služby v Československé lidové armádě obnažují svět mužů zavlečených do pasti, jíž je hra na vojáky. Původní postřehy Josefa Mouchy působí s odstupem let jako přízračné schválnosti, inscenované s početným komparsem v nákladných kulisách. Ve skutečnosti jsou záběry z počátku osmdesátých let nepřikrášleně realistickým pohledem zevnitř.
Autorem zasvěcené předmluvy je renomovaný fotograf a znalec historie fotografie Vladimír Birgus: Právě komplexnost Mouchova fotografického deníku z vojny přispívá k tomu, že jeho fotografie vyvolávají u každého, kdo prožil základní vojenskou službu za vlády komunistů, celý gejzír vzpomínek, uvádí. Je to mnohovrstevnatý pohled na vojenskou službu v době husákovské normalizace, jaký svou kvalitou, rozsahem a autentičností nemá na naší poválečné fotografické scéně obdoby. Dlouhým odstupem ještě vynikl jeho význam, protože není jenom fotografickým deníkem jednoho nedobrovolného vojáka, ale i zobecňujícím svědectvím o tehdejší době i o konfliktu mezi individualitou a totalitou.
This is the first publication in book form of the photographic set Serving It Cold: Photographs from Basic Training in the Czechoslovak Peoples Army. It is a parable about whirling round a core of nothingness. The photographs reveal the world of men dragged into a trap that pretends to be a game about being soldiers. Today, many years after they were first taken, these original photographs by Josef Moucha seem like ghostly dirty tricks, staged with numerous extras in expensive stage sets. In fact, they are shots taken at the start of the 1980s, an unembellished, realistic look from inside.
The photographs are introduced by Vladimír Birgus, a respected photographer and expert on photography: It is the complexity of Mouchas photographic diary from the army which contributes to his photographs evoking a geyser of recollections in everyone who experienced compulsory military service under Communist rule. Unique amongst Czech documentary photographs, he remarks, the set provides a many-layered view of compulsory military service in the years of the restored hard-line Communist regime, after the crushing of the Prague Spring reform movement in August 1968. In quality, size, and authenticity it is unparalleled in Czech post-war photography. [...] Their importance has become more evident with the passing of so many years, because they are not only the photographic diary of one conscript; they are also wide-ranging testimony about that period and about the conflict between individualism and totalitarianism.
Raising Boys Who Do Better
We need to have a conversation about boys. There has never been a more important time to consider how we are raising the men of the future. This is an invitation for parents of boys, as well as anyone who cares about the young males in their lives.
Parents of daughters, aunts, uncles, grandparents, teachers, community leaders; this is a discussion that we all need to participate in. Whether we are expecting a baby boy, parenting young men, or are simply interested in effecting positive change, many of us are asking how we can raise boys who challenge the status quo and are empowered to stand up for what is right. Confronting toxic masculinity and delving into the hot-button issues affecting boys today, from education to sexism, power to consent, and mental health, Raising Boys Who Do Better looks at bringing up boys in the era of #MeToo and Black Lives Matter.
This book is an absolute must-read for those who want to help nurture the boys in their lives to grow up into compassionate, kind, healthy and successful men.

Diary of a Confused Feminist: Must Do Better
Meet Kat Evans: Feminist. Overthinker. Hot mess.
A hilarious antidote to our Insta-perfect world, for girls who want to do it right but always feel they're getting it wrong ...
16-year-old Kat has suffered through mortifying incidents, muddling moments and Instagram hell - but her extreme teenage confusion isn't over yet.
It's a new term, and Kat is determined to spread the word about DOING GOOD FEMINISM to all her fellow students. But her new Feminist Society does not exactly go to plan (why is everyone more confused than she is?!) and she's left feeling more of a failure than ever. And with best friends Millie and Sam both going through difficult times, Kat wants to be there for them.
But there's a class trip to France to look forward to, and a reunion with Kat's former fling and TOTAL DREAMBOAT Sebastien. This is exactly what they all need ... until Kat's plans begin to unravel.
If Kat is doing her best, why does she always feel as if she must do better?
Fearlessly navigating school, mental health and relationships, Kate Weston is a hilarious new voice for those who love Holly Bourne and Netflix's Sex Education.

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.
