Cesta k pólu A Journey to the Pole Kora Kailash DVD
„Fascinující osobitý dokument, výborné spojení obrazu a zvuku…..., některé zvukové momenty se vsákly do obrazu natolik, že jejich výsledná kombinace na mne v určitých chvílích působila až hypnoticky! Je to dobrodružství, které vás určitě vtáhne a pohltí!“ řekl po shlédnutí filmu Shiva Dhakal , ředitel královské horolezecko- trekingové společnosti RMT v Káthmandú (Nepál). DVD ´CESTA – Journey´ vzniklo jako další realizační výstup projektu „Z PÓLU NA PÓL“, jehož zakladatelem je Oldřich Bubák. Ten je zároveň kameramanem i producentem tohoto filmu. (Pozn. Oldřich Bubák je prvním Čechem, který došel na severní pól {1996} a jižní pól {1999} pěšky na lyžích) DVD – Journey´ je uspořádáno do dvou částí. První, s názvem ´CESTA K PÓLU´, je cestou autora k jižnímu pólu v Antarktidě, tedy ke geografickému pólu. Druhá, s názvem ´KORA KAILASH´, je cestou autora k duchovnímu pólu, k nejposvátnější hoře světa - Mt. Kailash, ležící v západním Tibetu . Oba filmy bez použití komentáře, doprovázené velmi citlivě zkomponovanou hudbou, jsou v souladu s ní členěné do jednoduchých ´vět´, mající svůj logický a emotivní smysl; mimořádná, fascinující bohatost obrazu jde jakoby proti hudbě a činí z filmu podmanivou podívanou. DVD je ve dvou jazykových mutacích a je doplněno o bonusy v podobě rozhovorů a osobních vyjádření aktérů včetně fotogalerie - výběru unikátních barevných fotografií z mnoha expedic Oldřich Bubáka do Antarktidy a do Tibetu. DVD “CESTA – Journey“ lze doporučit jako zcela mimořádný zážitek všem náročným divákům.

The Beautiful Poetry of Donald Trump
What if there's a hidden dimension to Donald Trump; a sensitive, poetic side? Driven by this question, Rob Sears began combing Trump's words for signs of poetry.
What he found was a revelation. By simply taking the 45th President of the United States' tweets and transcripts, cutting them up and reordering them, Sears unearthed a trove of beautiful verse that was just waiting to be discovered.
This groundbreaking collection will give readers a glimpse of Trump's innermost thoughts and feelings on everything from the nature of truth, to what he hates about Lord Sugar. And it will reveal a hitherto hidden Donald, who may surprise and delight both students and critics alike.
This timely publication also includes Sears' scholarly footnotes and introduction, in which he excavates new critical angles and insights into the President's poetry which the casual reader might initially overlook.

Lacná kniha Sting:Back on the Beat
Touted by fans for his charisma and scorned by critics for his egomania, Sting is one of the most commercially successful and most controversial rock artists performing today. A schoolteacher from Newcastle, Sting soared to international fame and the top of the seventies rock charts with The Police, one of the most popular bands on the planet. After the band folded, he emerged as a solo start with hit singles, critically acclaimed albums, worldwide sell-out tours, and a host of Grammys, not to mention raves for his work in film and on Broadway. Yet Sting's career has been turbulent-an accomplished jazz bassist and vastly talented musician, he has been charged with playing punk and reggae for careerist convenience. He has been accused of single-handedly breaking up The Police at the peak of its rock band powers. And his much publicized work on behalf of Amnesty International and the Brazilian rainforests has been equally admired and disdained. In this updated edition of the first full-length biography of Sting, Christopher Sandford examines the substance behind the cliche, the creative disagreements--and physical violence--among The Police; the musical intelligence that produced such albums as Nothing Like the Sun and Ten Summoner's Tales; Sting's ecological campaigning and financial dealings; and his numerous sexual entanglements. Here is Sting, the legend, the man, the political activist, the performer who continues to fascinate the world.

Lacná kniha Dva kavalíři z Verony - The Two Gentlemen of Verona
Dva kavalíři z Verony patří k Shakespearovým raným komediím. Hra vnikla někdy v letech 1590-1594. Má se za to, že byla napsána až po Komedii omylů a Zkrocení zlé ženy, ale s ohledem na jistou jednoduchost výstupů, v nichž se v převážné míře střídají monology či promluvy stranou jedné osoby s dialogy dvou postav, ji někteří pokládají za vůbec první Shakespearovou hru.

The Invisible Hotel
An arresting, vital literary horror about the human consequences of the ongoing Korean War, a young woman's quest to find the truth about her country, and an inheritance that she is only just beginning to understand.
Yewon is trapped. She's stuck in Dalbit, the small Korean village of her birth, where the ancestral bones of her relatives live in her bathtub. Reeling from the loss of her father, she works long days at the convenience store and tries to keep the peace between her mother and sister, who are constantly at each other's throats.
But the nightmares are coming. Her little brother has just been conscripted into the Korean army, and he's stationed near the North Korean border, sent to the frontlines of a decades-long war that they no longer understand. As news coverage about the North breaking armistice comes into sickeningly sharp relief, Yewon's dreams about the ravaged hotel - where the war rages on - start to seep into her reality, and she is forced to confront the truth of her country, and the full weight of her inheritance...
Stylish, visceral and haunting, The Invisible Hotel is an unforgettable literary horror about the human consequences of a war that has continued for over seven decades, and the toll of being born into a conflict that shows no signs of stopping.

The Courage To Be Disliked
The Japanese phenomenon that teaches us the simple yet profound lessons required to liberate our real selves and find lasting happiness. The Courage to be Disliked shows you how to unlock the power within yourself to become your best and truest self, change your future and find lasting happiness. Using the theories of Alfred Adler, one of the three giants of 19th century psychology alongside Freud and Jung, the authors explain how we are all free to determine our own future free of the shackles of past experiences, doubts and the expectations of others.
It's a philosophy that's profoundly liberating, allowing us to develop the courage to change, and to ignore the limitations that we and those around us can place on ourselves. The result is a book that is both highly accessible and profound in its importance. Millions have already read and benefited from its wisdom.
Now that The Courage to be Disliked has been published for the first time in English, so can you.
