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.

Liptov ľudové umenie Folk Art
To čo sa v súčasnosti nazýva ľudovým umením, bolo v minulosti súčasťou každodenného života človeka. Ľudový výrobca pracoval s praktickým cieľom a jeho výrobky charakterizoval dokonalý súlad materiálu a techniky, funkcie a výzdoby. Každá vec ktorú zhotovil, musela byť taká, aby slúžila a aj ukázala, spájala sa v nej krása materiálu, výzdoby a účelnosti. Ľudia v Liptove spracovávali prírodné materiály a zhotovovali predmety, ktoré im slúžili v každodennom živote. Najpoužívanejšie boli predmety z dreva potrebné v domácnosti a gazdovstve, ale aj nábytok. Z prútia, korienkov a slamy sa plietli koše a košíky, hrnčiari robili a vypaľovali hlinené krčahy, misy, hrnce, pekáče a aj kachlice. Ovčiari si vyrezávali salašnícky riad, formy na oštiepky a črpáky na žinčicu. Ich oblečenie charakterizovala tzv. valaská paráda – bohato zdobené opasky, kapsy, klobúky, pracky a spony. Z ovčej vlny ľudia robili súkno, ktoré im slúžilo na odievanie, šili si z neho zimnú obuv a tiež používali ako prikrývky. Z koží oviec zruční remeselníci šili veľké mužské a ženské kožuchy, ale aj zdobené vesty bez rukávov. Ženy spracovávali ľanové a konopné vlákna, tkali z nich plátno, ktoré ozdobovali vytkávanými alebo vyšívanými vzormi. Modrotlačiari farbili biele plátno a potláčali ho krásnymi farebnými vzormi. Je potešiteľné, že takmer všetky výrobné a remeselné techniky a postupy sa v regióne uchovali až do súčasnosti ako živá tradícia.

The Art of War
The Art of War is a Chinese military treatise that was written during the 6th century BC by Sun Tzu. Composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare, it has long been praised as the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time.The Art of War is one of the oldest books on military strategy in the world. It is the first and one of the most successful works on strategy and has had a huge influence on Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, and beyond. Sun Tzu was the first to recognize the importance of positioning in strategy and that position is affected both by objective conditions in the physical environment and the subjective opinions of competitive actors in that environment. He taught that strategy was not planning in the sense of working through a to-do list, but rather that it requires quick and appropriate responses to changing conditions. Planning works in a controlled environment, but in a competitive environment,

The Art of Living: Reflections on Mindfulness and the Overexamined Life
A humorous, uplifting look at mindfulness, from beloved illustrator Grant Snider"Find a quiet spot away from all distraction / Listen to your breath / Watch your thoughts float past you / Forget the obligations of today / Try not to consider your eventual decay / Let yourself drift away / Arise, connected with the Earth / Awakened to the Universe.""Mindfulness" is a buzzword bordering on the cliche, with books filling the shelves of any indie bookstore you step into. Although cliches remind us of the familiar and the commonplace, they take on new meaning and greater significance when presented in a fresh new way. In The Art of Living, cartoonist Grant Snider, author of The Shape of Ideas and I Will Judge You by Your Bookshelf, has created an all-new collection of one- and two-page comics that map his inner thoughts, poetic observations, and frequent failures at living mindfully. With both humor and a touch of reality, The Art of Living centers on mindfulness, but also empathy, relaxation, gratitude, and awareness-evergreen subjects that are more important and relevant now than ever. With a striking package that includes a die-cut cover, The Art of Living is an extension of the themes of Snider's first two books-which explored the creative process and the love of reading-and is the perfect gift for those in a need of reflection, commiseration, hope, and a little extra self-care. Above all, Snider's cartoons will inspire and encourage a more thoughtful way of experiencing the world.

Mandaly malované technikou Dot Art
Dot Art je technika nanášení barev v jednotlivých bodech tak, až nakonec vznikne krásný celistvý obraz. Autorka nás provede celým procesem vzniku unikátní mandaly od samotného základu až po její finální podobu s nekonečnými možnostmi obměn. Technika je nenáročná a k jejímu zvládnutí není třeba žádných uměleckých dovedností.
Malování pomocí bodů uplatníme především v podobě mandal různých velikostí, ale i u obrazů mnohých témat - příroda, abstrakce, postavy. A co je na tomto tvoření největším přínosem? Protože nejde o dlouhé tahy štětcem, je potřeba se při tvorbě zcela zastavit, zklidnit mysl a s trpělivostí a pečlivostí nanášet jednotlivé body. Čas se najednou zpomalí, člověk je ponořený ve svém nitru a jeho tělem se rozproudí krásná, čistá energie, která nabije nejen samotného umělce, ale i jeho okolí.
Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow
This is the story of Sam and Sadie. It's not a romance, but it is about love.
When Sam catches sight of Sadie at a crowded train station one winter morning he is catapulted back to the brief time they spent playing together as children. Their unique spark is instantly reignited.
What comes next is a story of friendship and rivalry, fame and creativity, betrayal and tragedy, perfect worlds and imperfect ones. And, ultimately, our need to connect: to be loved and to love.

Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing
The beloved star of Friends takes us behind the scenes of the hit sitcom and his struggles with addiction in this candid, funny, and revelatory memoir that delivers a powerful message of hope and persistence.
'Hi, my name is Matthew, although you may know me by another name. My friends call me Matty. And
I should be dead.'
So begins the riveting story of acclaimed actor Matthew Perry, taking us along on his journey from childhood ambition to fame to addiction and recovery in the aftermath of a life-threatening health scare.
Before the frequent hospital visits and stints in rehab, there was five-year-old Matthew, who travelled from Montreal to Los Angeles, shuffling between his separated parents; fourteen-year-old Matthew, who was a nationally ranked tennis star in Canada; twenty-four-year-old Matthew, who nabbed a coveted role as a lead cast member on the talked-about pilot then called Friends Like Us. . .
and so much more.
In an extraordinary story that only he could tell - and in the heartfelt, hilarious, and warmly familiar way only he could tell it - Matthew Perry lays bare the fractured family that raised him (and also left him to his own devices), the desire for recognition that drove him to fame, and the void inside him that could not be filled even by his greatest dreams coming true. But he also details the peace he's found in sobriety and how he feels about the ubiquity of Friends, sharing stories about his castmates and other stars he met along the way. Frank, self-aware, and with his trademark humour, Perry vividly depicts his lifelong battle with addiction and what fuelled it despite seemingly having it all.
Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing is an unforgettable memoir that is both intimate and eye-opening - as well as a hand extended to anyone struggling with sobriety.
Unflinchingly honest, moving, and uproariously funny, this is the book fans have been waiting for.
