James
From the Booker Prize-shortlisted author of The Trees James is an enthralling and ferociously funny novel that leaves an indelible mark, forcing us to see Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in a wholly new and transformative light.
The Mississippi River, 1861. When the enslaved Jim overhears that he is about to be sold to a new owner in New Orleans and separated from his wife and daughter forever, he decides to hide on nearby Jackson's Island until he can formulate a plan. Meanwhile, Huck Finn has faked his own death to escape his violent father who recently returned to town. Thus begins a dangerous and transcendent journey by raft along the Mississippi River, toward the elusive promise of free states and beyond. As James and Huck begin to navigate the treacherous waters, each bend in the river holds the promise of both salvation and demise. With rumours of a brewing war, James must face the burden he carries: the family he is desperate to protect and the constant lie he must live. And together, the unlikely pair must face the most dangerous odyssey of them all . . .
From the shadows of Huck Finn's mischievous spirit, Jim emerges to reclaim his voice, defying the conventions that have consigned him to the margins.
Architektura nemocnic v 21. století
Publikace Architektura nemocnic v 21. století autorů Michala Juhy a Karla Fořtla je v našem prostředí po dlouhé době první knihou, která se tomuto organizačně i technicky náročnému tématu věnuje. Z pohledu vydavatele ústavu Nauky o budovách FA ČVUT jde také o úvodní publikaci edice 17/24 knih o vystavěném prostředí. Přestože – jak podotýkají sami autoři – prožívají pacienti a jejich blízcí v nemocnicích namnoze bolestné chvíle, kniha v sobě nese optimistické poselství: toto utrpení lze mírnit. Krásné, přehledně organizované prostředí zmírňuje stres pacientů, jejich blízkých i personálu.
Všem napomáhá čelit náročným životním situacím důstojně a zefektivňuje léčbu.
Architekturou v malém je i tato kniha: složité téma je podáno jasně, demonstrováno na srozumitelných schématech, přehledně strukturované množství informací je doplněno vhodně volenými příklady zdařilých řešení. Lze si jen přát, aby se tento duch jasnosti a kompetence přenesl i do budoucích návrhů našich nemocnic skrze všechny, kteří se s knihou seznámí, ať už to budou architekti, lékaři, managment nemocnic či zdravotního systému, ale i veřejnost a její zainteresovaní představitelé.
Apollónův pád 1: Utajené Orákulum
Jak nejlíp potrestat boha?Tím, že z něj uděláte smrtelníka! Přesně tak dopadl bůh slunce Apollón. LUP! – a z nesmrtelného boha je šestnáctiletý kluk. Bez božských schopností a se spoustou nepřátel za zády se válí ve smradlavé newyorské popelnici. Pokud chce z téhle bryndy vyváznout se zdravou kůží a dostat se zpět mezi bohy, musí přesvědčit Dia a získat jeho ztracenou přízeň. Existuje jen jediné místo, kde může hledat pomoc: základna moderních polobohů známá jako Tábor polokrevných!
Moby Dick
With an Introduction and Notes by David Herd, Lecturer in English and American Literature at the University of Kent at Canterbury and co-editor of 'Poetry Review'.
Moby Dick is the story of Captain Ahab's quest to avenge the whale that 'reaped' his leg. The quest is an obsession and the novel is a diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic.
But it is also a hymn to democracy. Bent as the crew is on Ahab's appalling crusade, it is equally the image of a co-operative community at work: all hands dependent on all hands, each individual responsible for the security of each.
Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel's narrator, ordinary sailor, and extraordinary reader. Digressive, allusive, vulgar, transcendent, the story Ishmael tells is above all an education:
in the practice of whaling, in the art of writing. Expanding to equal his 'mighty theme' - not only the whale but all things sublime - Melville breathes in the world's great literature. Moby Dick is the greatest novel ever written by an American.

Británie a USA - reálie
Znalost světa, v němž Britové a Američané žijí, usnadňuje cizincovu orientaci v jejich zemích i společenskou komunikaci s jejich obyvateli. Vzpomeňte si, jak Vás potěšilo, když cizinec ledacos věděl o Vaší zemi.
Zde ve dvou paralelních oddílech (Brit
ánie a USA) začneme s nástinem dějin těchto dvou zemí. Následují reálie institucí a všedního života. Není tu zeměpisný přehled obou států, ten je však poměrně snadno dostupný v knižních průvodcích. Nenajdete zde ani ekonomické údaje a politické aktua
lity, protože to všechno rychle podléhá změnám. Pro nedostatek místa nemohly být bohužel zařazeny kapitoly o architektuře, výtvarném umění a hudbě to však již patří k pokročilému studiu. Tento svazek je určen především pro "English learners" na stř
edních a jazykových školách, v kursech pro veřejnost a pro samouky. Není třeba knihu číst jako román, od začátku do konce. Nejprve si vyhledávejte to, co vás zajímá, nebo kde cítíte, že máte největší mezery ve vědomostech (můžete nahlédnout do závěre
čného rejstříku). 235 ilustrací v textu určitě podnítí Váš další zájem.
Český překlad Vám má usnadnit porozumění textu, ušetřit vyhledávání slovíček ve slovníku. I když se autor vyhýbal výrazivu s malou frekvencí a vše formuloval ve větách pokud možn
o jednoduchých, přece je lexikum těchto 50 kapitol dosti rozsáhlé.
Součástí kultury každého národa je i literatura. Její dějiny by však vyžadovaly samostatný svazek. Zde se pokusíme o jistou náhražku: vývoj britské a americké literatury rok po roce.
Zahrnuta však jsou jen díla přeložená do češtiny (příležitost pro čtenáře porovnat si název originálu s názvem českého překladu). Také je možné srovnávat, co bylo napsáno ve stejné době v Británii a USA - a u nás (jestliže znáte data vydání významněj
ších děl české literatury). Množství přeložených titulů (1380) Vás možná překvapí. Je to doklad toho, že se Češi jako malý národ vždy snažili být v kontaktu se zahraniční literaturou. A konečně, v oddílu literatury najdete i 153 portrétů významnějšíc
h či populárnějších spisovatelů, které nejsou jinde snadno dostupné.
The Sun and the Void
Enter a lush world inspired by the history and mythology of South America, where twisted family politics deceive, dark magics thrive, and fantastical creatures roam.
Reina is desperate.
Stuck on the edges of society, Reina’s only hope lies in an invitation from a grandmother she’s never met. But the journey to her is dangerous, and prayer can’t always avert disaster.
Attacked by creatures that stalk the mountains, Reina is on the verge of death until her grandmother, a dark sorceress, intervenes. Now dependent on the Dona’s magic for her life, Reina will do anything to earn - and keep - her favor. Even the bidding of an ancient god who whispers to her at night.
Eva Kesaré is unwanted.
Illegitimate and of mixed heritage, Eva is her family’s shame. She tries to be the perfect daughter, but Eva is hiding a secret: magic calls to her.
Eva knows she should fight the temptation. Magic is the sign of the dark god, and using it is punishable by death. Yet it’s hard to ignore power when it has always been denied you. Eva is walking a dangerous path, one that gets stranger every day. And in the end, she’ll become something she never imagined.
Once Upon a Prime
We often think of mathematics and literature as polar opposites. But what if, instead, they were fundamentally linked? In this insightful, laugh-out-loud funny book, Once Upon a Prime, Professor Sarah Hart shows us the myriad connections between maths and literature, and how understanding those connections can enhance our enjoyment of both.
Did you know, for instance, that Moby-Dick is full of sophisticated geometry? That James Joyce’s stream-of-consciousness novels are deliberately checkered with mathematical references? That George Eliot was obsessed with statistics? That Jurassic Park is undergirded by fractal patterns? That Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie wrote mathematician characters?
From sonnets to fairytales to experimental French literature, Once Upon a Prime takes us on an unforgettable journey through the books we thought we knew, revealing new layers of beauty and wonder. Professor Hart shows how maths and literature are complementary parts of the same quest, to understand human life and our place in the universe.

The Greatest Capitalist Who Ever Lived
The enduring story of Thomas Watson Jr.—a figure more important to the creation of the modern world than Rockefeller, Vanderbilt, and Morgan
Nearly fifty years into IBM’s existence, Thomas Watson Jr. undertook the biggest gamble in business history when he “bet the farm” on the creation of the IBM System/360, the world’s first fully integrated and compatible mainframe computer. As CEO, Watson drove a revolution no other company—then or now—would dare, laying the foundation for the digital age that has transformed every society, corporation, and government.
The story of Watson being “present at the creation” of the digital age is intertwined with near-Shakespearean personal drama. While he put IBM and its employees at risk, Watson also carried out a family-shattering battle over the future of the company with his brother Dick. This titanic struggle between brothers led to Dick’s death and almost killed Watson Jr. himself.
Though he was eventually touted by Fortune magazine as “the greatest capitalist who ever lived,” Watson’s directionless, playboy early years made him an unlikely candidate for corporate titan. How he pulled his life together and, despite personal demons, paved the way for what became a global industry is an epic tale full of drama, inspiration, and valuable lessons in leadership, risk-taking, and social responsibility.
The Librarianist
Selected as a Washington Post Book of the Summer
From bestselling and award-winning author Patrick deWitt comes a novel about an ordinary man who thought life's surprises were behind him - until a chance encounter changed everything
Bob Comet is a retired librarian passing his solitary days surrounded by books in a mint-colored house in Portland, Oregon. One morning on his daily walk he encounters a confused elderly woman lost in a market and returns her to the senior center that is her home. Hoping to fill the void he's known since retiring, he begins volunteering at the center. Here, as a community of strange peers gathers around Bob, and following a happenstance brush with a painful complication from his past, the events of his life and the details of his character are revealed.
Behind Bob Comet's straight man facade is the story of an unhappy child's runaway adventure during the last days of the Second World War, of true love won and stolen away, of the purpose and pride found in the librarian's vocation, and the pleasures of a life lived to the side of the masses. Comet's experiences are imbued with melancholy but also a bright, sustained comedy; he has a talent for locating bizarre and outsized players to welcome onto the stage of his life.
With his inimitable verve, skewed humor, and compassion for the outcast, Patrick deWitt has written a wide-ranging and ambitious document of the introvert's condition. The Librarianist celebrates the extraordinary in the so-called ordinary life, and depicts beautifully the turbulence that sometimes exists beneath a surface of serenity.
PAWS: Gabby Gets It Together
Are you a fan of Raina Telgemeier or Shannon Hale? Then don’t miss PAWS, a new graphic novel series about best friends, cute dogs, and all the fun (and trouble) that comes with them. Perfect for fans of Real Friends, Roller Girl, and Allergic, this funny and heartwarming series is the Baby-Sitters Club for pets!
Meet best friends Gabby Jordan, Priya Gupta, and Mindy Park. They’re different in just about every way—personalities, hobbies, family, and more—but they have a few important things in common: they’re all in the same class, they absolutely love animals, and for reasons that are as varied as the trio themselves none of them can actually have any pets.
Unable to resist the adorable temptation any longer, the girls decide to come up with a way to finally get their hands on some furry friends. And, as luck would have it, it seems like their neighborhood is in need of some afterschool dog-walkers. So, just like that, PAWS is born!
But it turns out that running a business is harder than it looks, especially with three co-owners who are such different people. The girls soon argue about everything, from how to prioritize their commitments to the best way to keep their doggy clients happy. And when their fighting ultimately leads to a doggo crisis, will it tear their business and friendship apart or will they be able to get it together to save the day?
Becoming Ella Fitzgerald
A landmark biography that reclaims Ella Fitzgerald as a major American artist and modernist innovator.
Ella Fitzgerald (1917–1996) possessed one of the twentieth century’s most astonishing voices. In this first major biography since Fitzgerald’s death, historian Judith Tick offers a sublime portrait of this ambitious risk-taker whose exceptional musical spontaneity made her a transformational artist.
Becoming Ella Fitzgerald clears up long-enduring mysteries. Archival research and in-depth family interviews shed new light on the singer’s difficult childhood in Yonkers, New York, the tragic death of her mother, and the year she spent in a girls’ reformatory school?where she sang in its renowned choir and dreamed of being a dancer. Rarely seen profiles from the Black press offer precious glimpses of Fitzgerald’s tense experiences of racial discrimination and her struggles with constricting models of Black and white femininity at midcentury.
Tick’s compelling narrative depicts Fitzgerald’s complicated career in fresh and original detail, upending the traditional view that segregates vocal jazz from the genre’s mainstream. As she navigated the shifting tides between jazz and pop, she used her originality to pioneer modernist vocal jazz. Interpreting long-lost setlists, reviews from both white and Black newspapers, and newly released footage and recordings, the book explores how Ella’s transcendence as an improvisor produced onstage performances every bit as significant as her historic recorded oeuvre.
From the singer’s first performance at the Apollo Theatre’s famous “Amateur Night” to the Savoy Ballroom, where Fitzgerald broke through with Chick Webb’s big band in the 1930s, Tick evokes the jazz world in riveting detail. She describes how Ella helped shape the bebop movement in the 1940s, as she joined Dizzy Gillespie and her then-husband, Ray Brown, in the world-touring Jazz at the Philharmonic, one of the first moments of high-culture acceptance for the disreputable art form.
Breaking ground as a female bandleader, Fitzgerald refuted expectations of musical Blackness, deftly balancing artistic ambition and market expectations. Her legendary exploration of the Great American Songbook in the 1950s fused a Black vocal aesthetic and jazz improvisation to revolutionize the popular repertoire. This hybridity often confounded critics, yet throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Ella reached audiences around the world, electrifying concert halls, and sold millions of records.
A masterful biography, Becoming Ella Fitzgerald describes a powerful woman who set a standard for American excellence nearly unmatched in the twentieth century.

Christmas at Thompson Hall
Anthony Trollope's heartwarming tales of Christmas, presented in a beautiful hardcover edition perfect for giving as a gift.
Christmas at Thompson Hall collects the best Christmas tales of Anthony Trollope, the enormously popular author of the Chronicles of Barsetshire and Palliser series of novels. Mostly set in Trollope's imaginary county of Barsetshire, the stories depict the festive period with all Trollope's trademark zest, humour, and cheerfulness, and offer rich and psychologically acute portrayals of the middle class and gentry of Victorian England at Christmas time.
Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was born in London to a bankrupt barrister father and a mother who, as a well-known writer, supported the family. Trollope enjoyed considerable acclaim both as a novelist and as a senior civil servant in the British Postal Service. He published more than forty novels and many short stories that are regarded by some as among the greatest of nineteenth-century fiction.
Csontfuvola
A két súlyosan sérült kommandós, Daniel Belloq és Steve Delgado a tóparti nyaralóban lábadozik. Steve mélységesen depressziós, nem hajlandó felkelni, mosdani, étkezni. Akciócsoportos társai mindent elkövetnek talpra állítása érdekében, de még a nyári Mikulás-terápia se válik be nála. Tán-tán Nympha, a könyörtelen gyógytornásznő segíthet. Denisa válósat álmodik, ezért sürgősen a tóhoz száguld, hogy Belloqkal lehessen. Idilljük hamar véget ér; lovaglás közben géppisztolysorozatot zúdítanak rájuk egy dzsipből. A kergült ló elhagyott farmra robog Denisával, ő pedig a kútból áradó hullaszag éreztén mozgósítja a helyi erőket. Pedofil gyerekrablás-sorozat nyomára bukkannak, ám a rendőrfőnök nem akar statisztikarontó ügyeket a városában. Belloq nem kíván részt venni az ügyben, arra hivatkozva, hogy besokallt, kiégett. Amikor azonban mesterlövész flintával megsebesítenek néhány helybéli hobbivadászt, feltámad benne a zsaru. Színre lép Gerret Flach, a nagy hatótávolságú vonzerővel bíró, örökbarna bőrű megyei főügyész-helyettes, és felkéri őket a nyomozásra. Denisa, Belloq, Steve, a kezdő zsaru Martin és a furabogár Cyd nekilát, hogy felderítsék a két bűnügyet. A gubancos szálak ekkor még alaposabban összekuszálódnak. A gyerekrablási gaztett véres fordulatot vesz. A hobbivadölők vadásza bedurvul. Eddigi és leendő áldozatai nem hajlandók együttműködni a zsarukkal, ugyanis szerintük ők a greenpeaces támadók. Nympha és Gerret Flach feromon-kisugárzása felbolydítja a kedélyeket; Belloq kamasz lánya kritikusan életun és világfáj, de még házi kedvenceik is agyászra szorulnak. A válságos írómester, Donald is jelen van, hogy pipatüzeket okozzon.
