The Guest
Summer is coming to a close on Long Island, and Alex is no longer welcome.
A misstep at a dinner party, and the older man she's been staying with dismisses her with a ride to the train station and a ticket back to the city.
With few resources and a waterlogged phone, but gifted with an ability to navigate the desires of others, Alex stays on Long Island and drifts like a ghost through the hedged lanes, gated driveways and sun-blasted dunes of a rarified world that is, at first, closed to her. Propelled by desperation and a mutable sense of morality, she spends the week leading up to the end of the holidays moving from one place to the next, a cipher leaving destruction in her wake.

Should We Stay or Should We Go
Determined to die with dignity, Kay and her husband Cyril - both healthy and vital medical professionals in their early fifties - make a pact: to commit suicide together once they've both turned eighty.
A lot can change in thirty years, however...
By turns hilarious and touching, playful and grave, Should We Stay or Should We Go portrays twelve parallel universes, each exploring a possible future for Kay and Cyril. Do they honour their agreement? And if not, will they live to regret it?
'Some books become so popular that the lucky author can thereafter churn out any old cobblers, confident in the knowledge that it will be published and find an audience. Lionel Shriver never took that easy route' Irish Independent

Jazyk C# je primárním jazykem vytvořeným Microsoftem pro nastupující generaci operačních systémů Windows - platformu .NET. Jde o moderní nástroj vycházející z dobrého, co dosavadní jazyky (především C++) přinesly, zároveň však odstraňuje nedostatk
y, kde tyto jazyky už nestačí sledovat rychlý vývoj zvláště v oblasti komponent a podpory webových aplikací. Doplňuje nové vlastnosti, které bylo do stávajících jazyků těžko zavést bez zásadní změny jejich koncepce. Jazyk C# však není "novým světem"
- jeho tvůrcům šlo nejen o implementaci nových schopností (stoprocentní objektovost, optimální vytváření komponent pro internetové aplikace), ale i o přívětivou syntaxi vycházející ze stávajících oblíbených jazyků.
Kniha umožní programátorům v kterém
koli jazyce snadno ovládnout nový jazyk. První kapitoly jsou pro nedočkavé čtenáře, kteří chtějí konečně vidět, jak nový jazyk vypadá. Následují důkladnější kapitoly s podrobným vysvětlením vlastností jazyka C#. Mezi popisovaná témata patří základní
příkazy, výrazy, třídy, struktury, rozhraní, atributy, výčtové typy, pole, delegáty, události, zpracování výjimek, interoperabilita prostřednictvím COM+ a další nové prvky, které jazyk a nová platforma přináší.
Ve zbývající části autor uvádí vývojáře
do aplikačního prostředí (frameworks) .NET a běhového prostředí společného pro všechny kompatibilní jazyky (Common Language Runtime, CLR). Naučí programátory vytvářet v nich správně fungující komponenty a základní rutiny (vstup/výstup apod.). Prosto
r je vyhrazen i pokročilejším tématům, jako jsou regulární výrazy a kolekce. Závěrečné kapitoly ukazují v praxi třídy System.Array, třídy kolekcí, automatické přidělování paměti objektům, optimalizaci kompilátoru a představují nový přístup "defenzivn
ího programování" a jeho podporu v C#, umožňující minimalizovat chyby v aplikacích. Na konci knihy najdete přímé porovnání C# s dosavadními jazyky C++, Javou a Visual Basicem.
Kniha je vhodná pro všechny programátory, kteří již mají alespoň základní
zkušenosti s programováním; předchozí zkušenosti s objektovým programováním jsou výhodou. Autor je předním členem vývojového týmu pro jazyk C# v Microsoftu. Výklad jazyka C# v knize je ověřen podle stavu druhé beta-verze krátce před finálním uvedením

Doctor Who: Rose (Illustrated Edition)
Nice to meet you, Rose. Run for your life!'
In a lair somewhere beneath central London, a malevolent alien intelligence is plotting the end of humanity. Shop window dummies that can move - and kill - are taking up key positions, ready to strike.
Rose Tyler, an ordinary Londoner, is working her shift in a department store, unaware that this is the most important day of her life. She's about to meet the only man who understands the true nature of the threat facing Earth, a stranger who will open her eyes to all the wonder and terror of the universe - a traveller in time and space known as the Doctor.
Rose is the story that brought Doctor Who back for the 21st century - and Russell T Davies's novelisation, based on his script, set the standard for new-era Target novelisations. Now, with illustrations by acclaimed artist Robert Hack - this is Rose as you've never seen it before...
The Ladies Rewrite The Rules
From the author of Mr. Malcolm’s List comes a delightful romantic comedy set in Regency England about a widow who takes high society by storm.
Diana Boyle, a wealthy young widow, has no desire to ever marry again. Particularly not to someone who merely wants her for her fortune.
So when she discovers that she’s listed in a directory of rich, single women she is furious, and rightly so. She confronts Maxwell Dean, the man who published the Bachelor’s Directory, and is horrified to find he is far more attractive than his actions have led her to expect. However, Diana is unmoved by Max’s explanation that he authored the list to assist younger sons like himself who cannot afford to marry unless it’s to a woman of means.
She gathers the ladies in the directory together to inform them of its existence, so they may circumvent fortune hunters’ efforts to trick them into marriage. Though outraged, the women decide to embrace their unique position of power and reverse the usual gender roles by making the men dance to their tune. And together…the ladies rewrite the rules.
Don't Call Us Dead
*WINNER OF THE FORWARD PRIZE FOR BEST COLLECTION 2018*
*A Finalist for the National Book Award for Poetry 2017*
*A Financial Times and Telegraph Book of the Year 2018*
Award-winning poet Danez Smith is a ground-breaking force, celebrated for deft lyrics, urgent subjects, and performative power. Don’t Call Us Dead opens with a heartrending sequence that imagines an afterlife for black men shot by police, a place where suspicion, violence, and grief are forgotten and replaced with the safety, love and longevity they deserved here on earth. Smith turns then to desire, mortality – the dangers experienced in skin and body and blood – and an HIV-positive diagnosis.
‘Some of us are killed / in pieces,’ Smith writes, ‘some of us all at once.’ Don’t Call Us Dead is an astonishing and ambitious collection, one that confronts, praises, and rebukes an America where every day is too often a funeral and not often enough a miracle.

Empathetic, enlightening, deeply human' Michael Harris, author of Solitude
In stories of love and loss, of trauma and hope, told from care homes, living rooms, classrooms and kitchens, All the Lonely People is an intimate portrait of loneliness. Over countless cups of tea, psychologist Dr Sam Carr has collected hours of conversations with people young and old, including single parents, carers, teenagers and the bereaved, and found that while each of their stories is utterly unique, they are all born out of the same desire for human connection.
As Carr interweaves these touching and powerful tales with his own personal narrative, he opens a window onto the inner lives of regular people – the forgotten, misplaced or misjudged – who all feel isolated in some way. Sparking a profound conversation about a universal emotion, which may simply be an inevitable part of life, he questions what we can do to build stronger human relationships and be a part of something bigger than ourselves in an increasingly disjointed world.
Kumukanda
*Winner of the Dylan Thomas Prize 2018*
*Winner of the Somerset Maugham Award 2018*
Translating as 'initiation', kumukanda is the name given to the rites a young boy from the Luvale tribe must pass through before he is considered a man. The poems of Kayo Chingonyi's remarkable debut explore this passage: between two worlds, ancestral and contemporary; between the living and the dead; between the gulf of who he is and how he is perceived.
Underpinned by a love of music, language and literature, here is a powerful exploration of race, identity and masculinity, celebrating what it means to be British and not British, all at once.
*Shortlisted for the Costa Poetry Prize; Seamus Heaney Centre First Poetry Collection Prize; Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry; Roehampton Poetry Prize; Jhalak Prize 2018*

Our Accidental Universe
Our view of the Universe is changing. The timeless heavens, turning ceaselessly above us, have been revealed to be dynamic and ever-changing, requiring a new kind of astronomy. On mountaintops and in deserts around the world, new telescopes are being built to show us this changing sky. But amongst all this technological development, the major astronomical events of the past century have largely come about by accident - found not by careful experiment but as surprises when we were looking for something else entirely.
- The most promising habitat for life beyond Earth turns out to be Saturn's tiny moon Enceladus, whose oceans were revealed as NASA's Cassini probe happened to swing by.
- Pulsars, the remnants of long-dead massive stars, were originally just 'scruff' in the data of radio astronomers looking at distant galaxies.
- Telescopes around the world sprung into action to follow the visit of our first, unexpected, interstellar visitor, an asteroid from another system.
- And we get the most from the Hubble Space Telescope by pointing it at nothing ...
Chris Lintott takes us on an astonishing tour of accidents and human error in pursuit of asteroids, pulsars, radio waves, new stars and alien life. On the threshold of opening a new window on the cosmos through new surveys and instruments, his book is an urgent argument for how keeping an open mind can benefit us all - whatever might still be out there for us to find.
