Teachers on the Waves of Transformation
Transformující se společnost prochází změnami na mnoha úrovních. Těmi hlavními dvěma jsou změny ve strukturách a kultuře společnosti. Jak se však tyto velké změny promítají do životů jednotlivců a malých společenství? Kniha Učitelé na vlnách transformace se snaží přispět k porozumění těmto otázkám pomocí exploratorního výzkumu na dvou školách v menším městě ve středních Čechách. V obou školách sleduje autorka osudy dvou generací učitelů. Při rozhovorech s učiteli, vedením i rodiči se zaměřuje na oblast vztahů, hodnot, sdílených příběhů i symbolického a rituálního světa – tedy na kulturu školy.

The Sins of Séverac Bablon
Excerpt:"There's half a score of your ancestral halls," said Julius Rohscheimer, "that I could sell up to-morrow morning!Of the quartet that heard his words no two members seemed quite similarly impressed.The pale face of Adeler, the great financier's confidential secretary, expressed no emotion whatever. Sir Richard Haredale flashed contempt from his grey eyes—only to veil his scorn of the man's vulgarity beneath a cloud of tobacco smoke. Tom Sheard, of the Gleaner, drew down a corner of his mouth and felt ashamed of the acquaintance. Denby, the music-hall comedian, softly whistled those bars of a popular ballad set to the words, "I stood in old Jerusalem."

The Triumphs of Eugene Valmont
The Triumphs of Eugene Valmont (1906) brings together tales of the multifarious exploits of Robert Barr's elegant and cunning sleuth, Valmont, a brilliantly ironic parody of Sherlock Holmes. Exhibiting the crucial combination of realism and imagination that characterizes the finest crime writing, the stories exude playfulness and blend mystery and quasi-Gothic thrills with humorous detours and romantic adventure. A notable figure in 1890s literary London and a friend of Conan Doyle, Barr was acutely aware of style as a form of statement and the stories are full of literary effects, commentary on the detective mystery genre, and Valmont's disparaging reflections on English values.

Strangers in the Night - Ava Gardner és Frank Sinatra viharos szerelme
Az egyikük kisvárosi szépségből lett hollywoodi szerelemistennő. A másikuk legendás énekes, akinek hangja megbabonázta az egész világot. Ava Gardner és Frank Sinatra külön-külön ellenállhatatlan személyiségek, együtt viszont robbanékony párost alkotnak.
A 20. század közepén Ava csillaga egyre fényesebben ragyog, Frank karrierje azonban hanyatlik – az ellentét féltékenykedést szül közöttük, a vágyakozás dühbe csap át, és a boldogságuk lépten-nyomon veszélybe kerül. Miközben a szerelmespár a siker és a kudarc, a szenvedély és a harag hullámvasútján utazik, azon tűnődnek, vajon melyik fordulat okozza a karrierjük, valamint az egymással megosztott élet végét.
A magával ragadó, kontinenseken és évtizedeken átívelő Strangers in the Night a huszadik század legizgalmasabb szerelmi történetét eleveníti meg.

The Do-Over
In this riotous young adult romp for fans of Recommended for You and A Cuban Girl's Guide to Tea and Tomorrow, a teen girl has the worst Valentine's Day ever-only to relive it over and over again.
After living through a dumpster fire of a Valentine's Day, Emilie Hornby escapes to her grandmother's house for some comfort and a consolation pint of Ben & Jerry's. She passes out on the couch, but when she wakes up, she's back home in her own bed-and it's Valentine's Day all over again. And the next day? Another nightmare V-Day.
Emilie is stuck in some sort of time loop nightmare that she can't wake up from as she re-watches her boyfriend, Josh, cheat on her day after day. In addition to Josh's recurring infidelity, Emilie can't get away from the enigmatic Nick, who she keeps running into-sometimes literally-in unfortunate ways.
How many days can one girl passively watch her life go up in flames? And when something good starts to come out of these terrible days, what happens when the universe stops doling out do-overs?
