Lacná kniha Judgement of Paris: The Revolutionary Decade That Gave the World Impressionism (-70%)
In 1863, the French painter Ernest Meissonier was one of the most famous artists in the world. The darling of the 'Salon' - that all important public art exhibition held biannually in Paris - he painted historical subjects in meticulous detail and sold his works for astronomical sums to collectors who included Napoleon III himself. Manet, on the other hand, was struggling in obscurity. Famous today as the father of Impressionism, when this books opens he was known only as the sloppy painter of a few much-derided canvases depicting absinthe-drinking beggars and bourgeois gentlemen in top hats. With his usual narrative brilliance and eye for telling detail, Ross King has taken the parallel careers of Meissonier and Manet and used them as a lens for their times. Beginning with the year that Manet exhibited his ground-breaking Dejeuner sur l'herbe and ending in 1874 with the first 'Impressionist' exhibition, King plunges us into Parisian life - on the streets and in the corridors of power - during a ten-year period full of social and political ferment. These were the years in which Napoleon III's autocratic and pleasure-seeking Second Empire fell from its heights into the ignominy of the Franco-Prussian war and the ensuing Paris Commune of 1871. But it was also a period in which a group of artists, with Manet in the vanguard began to challenge the establishment by refusing to paint classical or historical subjects and, instead, turning to the landscapes and ordinary people they saw around them. Benign as such paintings might seem today, they helped change the course of history. The struggle between Meissonier and Manet to get their paintings exhibited in pride of place at the Salon was not just about art, it was about how to see the world.

The Hardest Fall. A legerősebb érzés
Pontosan ez történik. Kezdek belezúgni. Kezdünk egymásba zúgni. Totálisan. Amikor két ember első ízben találkozik, egymásra néznek, mosolyognak, köszönnek. Alapesetben ez ilyen egyszerű. Csak épp nem nálam. Amikor először találkoztam Dylan Reeddel, a szemem egy másik testrészére fókuszált. Tudod, én egy borzasztóan félszeg lány vagyok. Rémes, ahogyan képes vagyok minden szamárságot összehordani! Arról nem is beszélve, milyen mesteri szinten csinálok bolondot magamból a srác előtt, aki tetszik nekem. Akkor még semmit nem tudtam róla. Mindegy, miket zagyválok, gondoltam, hisz úgysem fogok többet találkozni vele.
Kiderült, hogy tévedtem.
A futballcsapat sztárja, azon kevesek egyike, aki várhatóan bejut az NFL-be, a campus minden szegletében belém botlott. Felajánlkoztam neki, aztán elszaladtam, majd megtámadtam egy konyhai eszközzel, és… Uh, talán el sem kellene mesélnem, miket tettem még. Bár az én esetemben ez mind-mind… normálisnak számít. De végül eljött a pillanat, amikor már nem rejtőzhettem tovább – nem mintha Dylan hagyta volna. Most, hogy nap mint nap összefutunk, látja, hogy alig bírom levenni róla a szemem. Rám mosolyog, és azt mondja, lenyűgözik a szeszélyeim. Azt hiszi, barátok leszünk. Én meg úgy érzem, ő ennél sokkal több nekem. Minél jobban megismerem, annál kevésbé érdekel, hogy nem zúghatok bele.

Toru Okada's cat has disappeared and this has unsettled his wife, who is herself growing more distant every day. Then there are the increasingly explicit telephone calls he has started receiving. As this compelling story unfolds, the tidy suburban realities of Okada's vague and blameless life, spent cooking, reading, listening to jazz and opera and drinking beer at the kitchen table, are turned inside out, and he embarks on a bizarre journey, guided (however obscurely) by a succession of characters, each with a tale to tell.
