Részeg józanok - Ötven év múltán
A Részeg józanok, melyet a szerző most újraírt, az első ifjúkori kisregénye volt. Ez a mű azonnal bevezette őt a legsikeresebb magyar prózaírók sorába, és a könyv sok kiadást megért.
A történet egy paraszti mélynyomorból fölkerült, önpusztító sorsot élt színész zseninek és orvosnőjének, egy zsidó származású pszichiáternek a szenvedélyes szerelméről és halálba rohanásáról szól.
*
Ezt a regényt ötven évvel ezelőtt nem mertem megírni.
Féltem az igazságtól.
Most újraírtam az egészet. Elejétől végig. Nem tudom, van-e példa az irodalomban, hogy valaki több mint fél évszázad múltán újraírja egész művét. Velem ez történt. Visszamentem az emlékeimhez. Találkoztam azzal a gátlásos kamasz fiúval, aki valaha voltam, és képzeletemben újra átéltem az egész országot megrendítő eseményt, és egykori önmagamat is.
Ennek a valóban megtörtént tragédiának ugyanis én voltam az egyik főszereplője. A regény nem csupán csodálatos barátaim vad és végzetes szerelméről, hanem az én örvénylő vonzalmamról is szól, melyet magamnak sem mertem bevallani. Az öregkor bátorsága kellett hozzá, hogy tisztábban lássam az igazságot.
Talán megmenthettem volna őket...
Műveinket olvadó jéghegybe karcoljuk, hiú igyekezettel, hátha fönnmarad belőle valami. Gondoltam, ha így van, maradjon meg az igazi.

The Day the World Stops Shopping
We can't stop shopping but we must stop shopping - the consumer dilemma that defines our lives and our future. What would happen if we did?
We are using up the planet at almost double the rate it can regenerate. To support our economies, we're told we must shop now like we've never shopped before, yet the scale of our consumption remains the biggest factor in the ruination of the world.
But what would life look like if we stopped? Visiting places where economies have experienced temporary shut-downs, artisan producers, zero-consumption societies and bringing together a host of expert views, this is both a history of our relationship with consumption and a story about the future.
Our Hideous Progeny
Mary is the great-niece of Victor Frankenstein. She knows her great uncle disappeared in mysterious circumstances in the Arctic but she doesn't know why or how...
The 1850s is a time of discovery and London is ablaze with the latest scientific theories and debates, especially when a spectacular new exhibition of dinosaur sculptures opens at the Crystal Palace. Mary, with a sharp mind and a sharper tongue, is keen to make her name in this world of science, alongside her geologist husband Henry, but without wealth and connections, their options are limited.
But when Mary discovers some old family papers that allude to the shocking truth behind her great-uncle's past, she thinks she may have found the key to securing their future... Their quest takes them to the wilds of Scotland, to Henry's intriguing but reclusive sister Maisie, and to a deadly chase with a rival who is out to steal their secret...
Bread Far from My Cradle
Béla Menczer (1902–1983) was a journalist and historian. As a youth, he was radical, but never a Communist. For illegal activities, he was sentenced to jail in 1922. After his release, he left Hungary and went to Paris where he joined the Károlyi emigration, serving as a liaison secretary to the former Prime Minister. Disillusioned and increasingly critical of both bourgeois radicalism and nationalism, he turned to conservatism. He lived then in Berlin and later in London. After the defeat of France, he enlisted in de Gaulle’s army. He saw some action in Africa and was baptised a Catholic in Sierra Leone. After the war, he settled in London and published essays and papers on Hungarian and European history and literature. He was a polyglot, an amiable personality, with an unusually wide network of acquaintances, to which this autobiography, ending in 1946, testifies. Though staunchly anti-communist, he visited Hungary three times, and entrusted his legacy to the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.

Hajnali takarodó
Az ebben a könyvben olvasható tizennyolc elbeszélés a negyedik és az utolsó olyan kötet, melyet Taps at Reveille (Hajnali takarodó) címmel F. Scott Fitzgerald még életében állított össze és küldött el kiadójának. Hogy biztos legyen a dolgában (szüksége volt a pénzre, mint mindig, nagyon), irodalmi ügynökének, Harold Obernek ajánlotta, akinek jóvoltából 1935. március 10-én a kötet napvilágot is látott. Ő, mármint Fitzgerald, személyesen ezeket az írásokat tartotta a legjobbaknak a talán 1száznyolcvannál is több novellája közül. Hogy azok-e, mármint a legjobbak, azon már megoszlottak az olvasói, és a kritikusi, vélemények. A New York Times-ban Edith Walton például fanyalogva fogadta. Egyetlen „görbe éjszakának” tartotta, melyre Fitzgerald fölöslegesen pazarolta „ragyogó tehetségét.” A Basil Lee-vel kapcsolatos „kis remekművek” mellett a Vissza Babilonba (Babylon Revisited) azonban neki is nagyon tetszett, melyet „a legérettebb és legértékesebb” műnek tartott ebben a kötetben. Az írójának szomorú, ám aligha végleges búcsúja Párizstól és a nem éppen vidám hangulat, vagy inkább férfiúi mélabú, mely az egész elbeszélést körüllengi, talán azt mutatja, hogy a szerző szakított, vagy legalább is minden áron megpróbál szakítani a dzsesszkorszak idején, az üvöltő húszas években művelt őrültségeivel. Mi olvasók, nagyjából talán osztani is tudjuk a jó szemű kritikusnak ezt a véleményét. Azzal viszont ma már nehezen tudnánk egyetérteni, amit a továbbiakban mond ezekről a hol kisebb, hol pedig nagyobb lélegzetű történetekről. Azt állítja, ami szinte közhely, hogy az, amiről Fitzgerald idejét és tehetségét nem kímélve ír, nem méltó tollára. Mert ezek a témák, mondja Walton, egészen triviálisak. Bár igaz, teszi hozzá, hogy ennek ellenére írásainak fénye: az eredeti, csak a Fitzgeraldra jellemző, magával ragadó sodrású stílus és profizmus mégis mindenkit elbűvöl. Szerencsére a későbbi korok kritikusai sem értenek egyet e nagy, ha nem az egyik legnagyobb, amerikai író ilyen szubjektív leminősítésével, mert jól látták, hogy amihez Fitzgerald hozzányúlt „magával ragadó sodrású stílusával és profizmusával,” az első szerelemtől a valóra nem vált amerikai álomig, az igenis mind méltó nemcsak az ő, hanem minden valamirevaló író tollára. Nem triviálisak a témái, semmiképpen sem azok. Vajon annak nevezhetjük azt, ha, mondjuk, egy, a maga körül lévő világra rácsodálkozó felnövekvő kamasz fiúnak, vagy nyiladozó szemű nagylánynak (a Basil és Josephine történetekben például) a lelkivilága tárul elénk, amint értelmezni kezdi a

Yorran: Born in the Dust of Path
EN:
He, who never finds the courage to leave the native home, never finds who he truly is. This applied in the past and will apply in the future, and thus it‘s no surprise that it applies to the world created by the author of the Yorran saga, too. Only the obstacles and trials which the heroes of this fantasy story need to face are different from ours.
There are people who set out on such journey voluntarily, and some will be forced to take it by the ruthless power of their destiny. And the story of our hero isn‘t any different. Abarhil is not a boy anymore. The question, however, is whether he really is the man who can face up to the trials which the fate lays before him.
The author of the saga has created a complex world which he populated with unknown nations and curious animals. He created a history of the world in which he planted the seeds of events which just now begin to sprout. The features of future events are not very clear, yet, but not even our hero is ready to face them. Thus, a long journey awaits him. Far away sail to the southern seas, return journey full of hardships through the wilderness, unexpected adventures, and above all, unusual encounters which indicate his disturbing future. Can he handle the traps of love to which his heart will be exposed? Will he stand the test of the war hardships which his destiny lays before him? Will he understand what his destiny asks of him?
Let‘s set out on this long and dangerous journey across the unknown world. Set your foot on a dusty path from which a new hero will be born.

Kdo nenajde odvahu opustit rodný dům, nikdy nezjistí, kdo doopravdy je. To platilo včera, bude to platit zítra, a tak není divu, že to platí i ve světě stvořeném autorem ságy Yorrân. Jen překážky a zkoušky, kterým musí čelit hrdinové fantasy, jsou jiné než ty naše.
Někdo se na takovou cestu vydá dobrovolně, jiného na ní postrčí nemilosrdná ruka osudu. A stejné je to i s hrdinou tohoto příběhu. Abarhil už není chlapcem. Otázka však zní, zda už je skutečně mužem, který se dokáže postavit čelem zkouškám, které mu osud přichystal?
Autor epické ságy vytvořil kompletní svět, který osídlil neznámými národy a zvláštními zvířaty. Stvořil dějiny světa, do kterých zasadil semena událostí, která právě nyní začínají klíčit. Obrysy budoucích událostí ještě nejsou příliš zřetelné, ale ani hrdina, tohoto příběhu, ještě není připraven jim čelit. Proto jej čeká dlouhá pouť. Daleká plavba do jižních moří, strastiplný návrat divočinou, nečekaná dobrodružství, a hlavně neobvyklá setkání, která mu naznačí jeho znepokojivou budoucnost. Dokáže zvládnout úklady lásky, kterým bude vystaveno jeho srdce? Obstojí ve válečných útrapách, které mu přichystal osud? Pochopí, co po něm osud žádá?
Pojďte se vydat na dlouhou a nebezpečnou cestu neznámým světem. Vstupte na stezku z jejíhož prachu se zrodí nový hrdina.

Alpha Werewolf Complete Set
This four-book collection features innocent young prey shifters falling prey to Alpha Werewolves. Here, you will find:
Obedient Kitten
When Theodore's friend dies unexpectedly, he bequests him a house and everything in it. Everything includes a young cat shifter, the lawyer says, eyes gleaming with greed and envy. Cat shifters are a rare species in a world ruled by humans and werewolves. They are considered precious and protected, and a half-shift like her? Well, she is worth tens of millions in the black market.
Training Hucow
The last thing Erik expects to see when he arrives in the mandatory Shifter class that the University had just set up that week is a bound hucow being rolled into the class like a human sacrifice. Their professor thinks hucows are made to be used and is offering her just for that purpose.
Except he's wrong. She's not a toy to be used. She's precious and most importantly, she's his and he intends to make it clear right there in front of all his classmates.
Abandoned Kitten
When Anna losses her Master, she panics and shifts into her cat form, hiding in her animal mind because she doesn't have to deal with grief if she's a cat. Except nobody tells the werewolf who had been tasked with taking care of her that she's not actually a cat. It’s not too bad, living with the Werewolf, except she’s human too and have other needs that can’t be ignored.
Lost Little Rabbit
Ally is pretty sure she's going to die. She should never have wandered away from her friend. Now, werewolves have taken interest in her and are hunting her down in broad daylight. She's a weak - and probably delicious - rabbit, so it's only a matter of time before they catch her. There are only so many places she can hide in the city.
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~
"Hello there.” The man looms in front of her, huge and terrifying. "What's a little thing like you doing out here all alone? Don't you know it's not safe for shifters like you out here?"
"I um- I'm just here for the event," she stutters. "If you could point me in the direction of my hotel, that would be very helpful," she says, hoping her ears are properly tucked under her hair and they can't see them. Apparently city folks are weird about Shifters like her, which was why Darnell had been so wary about letting her out of the hotel.
"Aren't you sweet?" The man sneers, looming in front of her, closing in and grabbing her wrist hard enough to hurt.
"Please let go," she says, her heartbeat going too fast. "I- Please," she whimpers, eyes filling with tears. She can hold onto her shift easier now that she's older, but she's fast forgetting how to keep in control because she's really scared right now.
"Why would I do that? Sweet little thing like you," he drawls, leaning in and licking a wet strip up her cheek.
It's really gross and she pulls away, cheeks going bright red with humiliation. The other werewolves are closing in now too, trapping her between them to give her the feeling of prey being surrounded. It's terrifying. Her breath hitches and her eyes burn with tears. She wipes away the saliva on her cheek with the back of her hand. She doesn't like the way he smells like cigarette smoke.
He yanks her close, pulling their bodies closer together and then he shifts partially so that his fingers turn into sharp claws right in front of her eyes. She thinks of hitting him and running away but she's outnumbered. She closes her eyes and grimaces when she feels him comb through her hair, tips of his claws cutting through her hair band like it's made of paper. Her hair tumbles out from the ponytail and her rabbit ears drop down. A whine escapes her throat. Her ears fold back, and she trembles quietly, panicking.
"Jesus-" "Oh my god." "What the-"
She closes her eyes, heart beating so hard she's afraid it would break through her rib cage and abandon her.
"Aren't you just lovely," he grins and she can feel his breath on her cheek, burning hot and smelling like cigarette smoke and danger. Her ear

Abandoned Kitty
Anna has never dealt with change well. When Anna losses her Master, she panics and shifts into her cat form, hiding in her animal mind because she doesn't have to deal with grief if she's a cat. Except nobody tells the werewolf who had been tasked with taking care of her that she's not actually a cat.
It's not bad, being treated like an animal, though. He feeds her and pets her. Maybe she could just stay like this forever. Except she's human too and she has needs that has nothing to do with food and shelter. When she takes her human form, she surprises the Werewolf Alpha with her pale skin and cat ears and long, perfect tail.
He thought there was something wrong with him for being so drawn to the small kitten he has inherited from his father. When he sees her shift to her human form, he finally understands why the Wolf in him desires her so viscerally.
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~
She is mostly asleep when she hears a familiar voice at the door that follows a confused Shadow. The old woman marches in with all the wrath of an avenging god. Or in this case, a pissed off caretaker. Master Monty's primary caregiver is a terrifying woman and keeps order around the house with an iron fist.
She must have been so sad when she came back from her son's graduation and found out that Master Monty had died in her absence.
"Melissa? What're you doing here?" Shadow sounds uncertain for the first time since she's been here. "How did you get in?" he continues, completely flummoxed.
"The staff tell me that you took Anna with you," Melissa says and her ears perk up at the sound of her name. "Where is she?" Louder, she calls out, "Anna? Anna, darling. Where are you?"
Melissa has a sweet spot for her. The older woman practically raised her. She's neither wolf nor cat. Her animal is a bear and she sorts of looks like one, though Anna was never brave enough to say it to her face. Melissa is as big as one, tall and broad with fat and muscle in equal parts and talks with an undertone of 'I can break your bones with my bare hands' that makes the animal side of her tremble and want to hide far, far away. But Melissa has always been kind to her.
"It was in the will. She's important to the old man, I gather?" Shadow is attempting to make himself sound less surprised by the unexpected visit and get a hold of himself, but Anna can hear his heartbeat and he is a little scared. She wonders if Melissa raised him too.
"Where is she?" Melissa doesn't wait for an answer, sniffing the air and following her nose until she is looking down at Anna, curled up inside of her little cage.
"Mreowl," she whines up at the older woman, who lets out an outraged roar that echoes through the room and makes the walls vibrate. She wonders if the walls would crumble from the sheer power in her roar, but they only shake a little, holding firm.
Anna has never seen Melissa shift before. She bends over and grabs her cage by the sides and breaks it apart like it's made of paper. It shatters, the fragments falling into her eyes. She closes her eyes and curls her tail around herself.
"What're you doing, Melissa?!" Shadow is behind her.
Melissa ignores him and shrinks back into her form. "Darling, how long have you been in there?" she asks, her voice softer than Anna has ever heard her before. "Come here, darling. You poor thing. Come here."
She mewls and stumbles into Melissa's open arms, shifting as she unfurls from her little corner and she hears Shadow's sharp intake of breath. He backs away, eyes wide with shock.
"I didn't know- I didn't know she's-" he starts but Melissa's rumbling purr drowns away whatever else he has to say.
Anna hides her face in the larger woman's chest, finding comfort in her warmth. She feels safe here. Her arms and legs ache from being shifted for so long and it is nice to have fingers and toes again.
