Hare House
'Deliciously chilly' Guardian
'Humming with suppressed hysteria and madness' The Times
'Wonderfully evocative' Heat
Hare House is not its real name, of course. I have, if you will forgive me, kept names to a minimum here, for reasons that will become understandable . . .
In the first brisk days of autumn, a woman arrives in Scotland having left her job at an all-girls school in London in mysterious circumstances. Moving into a cottage on the remote estate of Hare House, she begins to explore her new home - a patchwork of hills, moorland and forest. But among the tiny roads, dykes and scattered houses, something more sinister lurks: local tales of witchcraft, clay figures and young men sent mad.
Striking up a friendship with her landlord, Grant, and his younger sister, Cass, she begins to suspect that all might not be quite as it seems at Hare House. And as autumn turns to winter, and a heavy snowfall traps the inhabitants of the estate within its walls, tensions rise to fever pitch.
Sally Hinchcliffe's Hare House is a modern-day witch story, perfect for fans of Pine and The Loney.

Lacná kniha "Nekünk mégis Mohács kell..." - II. Lajos király rejtélyes halála és különböző temetései
Nekünk tényleg Mohács kell... Ezt mi sem bizonyít jobban, hogy generációkról generációkra feltesszük a nyugtalanító kérdést: mi is veszett oda 1526. augusztus 29-én, Mohács mezején? A kérdésre, mint annyi mindenre, a történelem iránt érdeklődő összes magyarnak van válasza a tudomány határán innen és túl, s ezek a válaszok a szokásnak megfelelően sokszínűek, néha egymással kibékíthetetlenül szembenállók. Lehet-e ennyi év, ennyi forráselemzés, régészeti feltárás, szakmai vita után erről bármi újat mondani? Az utóbbi évek kutatásai azt bizonyítják, hogy igen, mindig akad valami újdonság, amire rácsodálkozhatunk. E kötet arra keresi a választ, hogy a korabeli források új nézőpontú elemzése és a különféle bölcsészet-, illetve természettudományok (történetírás, irodalom- és hadtörténet, könyvtártudomány, filológia, ill. antropológia, sebészet, igazságügyi orvostan) alkalmazása megoldást kínál-e arra, hogy megtudjuk: mi történhetett valójában II. Lajos királlyal vagy hogy hol temették el a csata után? A tanulmányok szerzői között egyaránt található antropológus, igazságügyi orvosszakértő, történész, oszmanista, filológus és könyvtáros. A kötetet a II. Lajos haláláról szóló források (1526-1800) eddigi legteljesebb összeállítása és gazdag képanyag egészíti ki. E könyv minden magyar állampolgárnak ajánlható, aki érdeklődik történelmünk egyik legfontosabb sorsfordulója, a mohácsi csata és Magyarország törökkori históriája iránt.

Played to Death
Named Best Mystery in the 2015 Next Generation Indie Book Awards and 2015 Shamus Award finalist for Best Indie P.I. NovelA body in a rundown Opera House. Simmering resentment in a small Virginia coastal town. A missing manuscript. A dark family secret.Crime consultant and former classical pianist Scott Drayco reluctantly finds himself on Virginia’s Delmarva Peninsula in Cape Unity, a dilapidated fishing village where vacation homes once provided a playground for the rich. In the center of town rises an imposing Opera House recently bequeathed by a grateful client to Drayco, whose hopes of a quick sale are soon dashed by the ambitions of townspeople looking for civic rebirth and a new client with dreams of his own personal redemption.When the client is murdered in the Opera House, the letter “G” mockingly carved into his chest, Drayco, assisted by the local Sheriff and his attractive Deputy, navigates a maze of illicit love affairs, hostility over immigration and coastal development and a vendetta reaching across the Atlantic into some of the darkest days of human history. Along the way Drayco must overcome doubts about his own past that cost the lives of two innocent children on his last case - before the tensions in Cape Unity explode into more violence, and he becomes the next victim.EDITORIAL REVIEWS:"The storyline here is nicely structured, and creatively ties together two murder mysteries, which occurred decades apart. The small town setting is ideal, the lead character engaging, and the supporting cast interesting and diverse. Overall, a solid start to this series." - Omnimystery News"Lawson uses the gothic features of the abandoned Opera House to great effect, creating an atmospheric background for the crimes and the solving of them, all of it accompanied with music that’s almost like another character. The pace never sagged and it kept me enthralled." - Long & Short Reviews

Black Holes & Time Warps
Which of these bizarre phenomena, if any, can really exist in our universe? Black holes, down which anything can fall but from which nothing can return; wormholes, short spacewarps connecting regions of the cosmos; singularities, where space and time are so violently warped that time ceases to exist and space becomes a kind of foam; gravitational waves, which carry symphonic accounts of collisions of black holes billions of years ago; and time machines, for traveling backward and forward in time. Kip Thorne, along with fellow theorists Stephen Hawking and Roger Penrose, a cadre of Russians, and earlier scientists such as Oppenheimer, Wheeler and Chandrasekhar, has been in the thick of the quest to secure answers. In this masterfully written and brilliantly informed work of scientific history and explanation, Dr. Thorne, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist and the Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics Emeritus at Caltech, leads his readers through an elegant, always human, tapestry of interlocking themes, coming finally to a uniquely informed answer to the great question: what principles control our universe and why do physicists think they know the things they think they know? Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time has been one of the greatest best-sellers in publishing history. Anyone who struggled with that book will find here a more slowly paced but equally mind-stretching experience, with the added fascination of a rich historical and human component. Winner of the Phi Beta Kappa Award in Science.
New York - Nagyvárosi séták
"Gyémántok rozsdás foglalatban" – így jellemzi előszavában a szerző, az MTI volt washingtoni és New York-i tudósítója – a világváros mai állapotát. A legújabb látnivalókat és a hagyományos idegenforgalmi nevezetességeket szinte hiánytalanul eléd táró nagyalakú fotóalbum és útikalauz tartalma tizenkét képes séta.
Ismerd meg New Yorkot az újból virágzásnak indult Harlemtől a Manhattan déli csücskéből komppal megközelíthető Szabadság-szoborig és az Ellis Islandig, ahol több tízmillióan léptek be új hazájukba. Ahova a sétautak vezetnek: Times Square, 5th Avenue, Rockefeller Center, 42nd Street, Uptown, Midtown, Downtown, Ground Zero, Williamsburg, Ellis Island, Brighton Beach, Coney Island.
Ahhoz egy kéthetes New York-i utazás sem elég, hogy a magyar látogató a metropolisz minden érdekességét megtekintse, de van választási lehetőség. Délelőtt az Abissynian Baptist Church-ben Amerika legjobb gospel-együttese hallható, este a a 42nd Street és a Broadway többezer férőhelyes musical-színházai várnak. Vásárlásra útba ejtheted a Macy's, a Saks Fifth Avenue vagy a Ground Zero mellett nemrégiben felépült hipermodern Gateway Plaza bevásárlóközpontot. Étkezésre a világ legjobb bifsztekjével hencegő Peter Luger étterem, a Little Italy valamelyik étterme, vagy a sokszáz hot-dog pavilon egyike lesz biztosan elérhető közelségben. A Broadwayen járva pedig érdeklődéstől és pénztárcától függően dönthetsz arról, hogy a Strandet, a világ legnagyobb antikváriumát vagy inkább a Harley Davidson márkaboltját keresed fel.
A máris óriási tömegeket vonzó szeptember 9/11 emlékhely, az új Trump-torony a SoHoban, az orosz emigrációt befogadó Brighton Beach és a 2nd Avenuen épült új metróvonal pedig emlékeztet: ez az a hely, ahol az élet soha nem áll meg, s ahol mindig fogsz találni új látnivalókat.
Történjék ez a nagy utazás a remek képek által inspirált képzeletben vagy a valóságban: Bon Voyage!

Lacná kniha Český strukturalismus v diskusi
Publikace představuje reprezentativní výbor z široké diskuse o českém strukturalismu, kterou vedli západní literární vědci v sedmdesátých až devadesátých letech 20. století. Záměrem antologie je představit vybraná témata, některé tendence a směřování diskusí o českém strukturalismu v uvedeném období. Svazek obsahuje patnáct studií, v nichž se zahraniční literární teoretici a historici zabývají českým strukturalismem buď z hlediska širších vědeckých, kulturních a historických kontextů, anebo se úžeji zaměřují na poetiku, sémiotiku a estetiku Jana Mukařovského a Romana Jakobsona. Na úvod jsou zařazeny studie Ladislava Matějky, Petra V. Zimy a Petra Steinera, které nastiňují celkovou pozici českého strukturalismu v západní literární vědě a které se jím zabývají v souvislosti s ruským formalismem, avantgardistickou angažovaností a českou estetickou formalis tickou tradicí. Následují práce, v nichž se jejich autoři zaměřili na problematiku holismu a teleologie (Patrick Sériot), na vztahy českého strukturalismu s fenomenologií (Elmar Holenstein, David Herman) a s hermeneutikou, respektive recepční estetikou (Sigrun Bielfeldtová). Na ně navazují studie věnované poetologickým a sémiotickým názorům Jana Mukařovského (Thomas G. Winner, Wolfgang F. Schwarz, Claude Gandelman, Herta Schmidová), práce o poetice a sémiotice Romana Jakobsona (Peter Grzybek, Linda R. Waughová, Irene Portis-Winnerová), ale také stať Wendy Steinerové o sémiotické koncepci jazyka Sergeje Karcevského. Vybrané studie jsou důležité nejen v kontextu západní literární vědy a sémiotiky, ale mohou být inspirativní i pro naše současné zkoumání dějin Pražské školy a úvahy o strukturální teorii a metodologii. Svazek uzavírá doslov mapující dějiny zahraniční recepce a hlavní témata diskusí o českém strukturalismu.

Nic si o tom nemyslet
Kniha proměn (nebo taky album soch, kreseb, nápadů, nálezů, instalací) současného českého umělce a aktivisty Krištofa Kintery provede čtenáře podiv(uhod)ným světem, ve kterém žijeme – novou přírodou i zmutovaným městem a krajinou. Nic si o tom nemyslet je kniha k listování, přemýšlení, ušklíbání, pomrkávání, chechtání, protestování, posuzování, kritizování... Nehybné se dává do pohybu a věci začínají mluvit. Dochází k podivným proměnám, tajemným přesunům, nejasným zvratům. Řeční tu spoustu hlav najednou a promlouvají věci jindy pohozené a bez života. Debatuje se tu a filozofuje výkřiky, plky, náhlými nápady i praotázkami. Cíl je jasný: přijít tomu na kloub. Tento obrazový sumář nápadů a realizací Krištofa Kintery je osobitý i formou – kniha s autorským zásekem na obálce!

Lacná kniha Aktivita jako projekt (-90%)
Pojem „aktivní stáří“ v současnosti působí jako zaklínadlo téměř všech vládních dokumentů věnujících se problematice stárnutí, stejně jako oblíbených obrazů „obdivuhodných“ seniorů. Koncept aktivního stárnutí představuje seniorský věk jako období, jež má být naplněné aktivitou ať již ve formě prodlužujícího se pohybu na trhu práce, celoživotním vzděláváním nebo sportem či dalšími nově se rozvíjejícími zájmy. Tato kniha usiluje o kritické zhodnocení tohoto konceptu a zároveň o zmapování způsobů, jakými se idea aktivního stárnutí promítá do konkrétních životních stylů českých seniorů a seniorek. Autorka mapuje diskurz aktivního stárnutí pomocí analýzy dokumentů věnovaných problematice stárnutí a především prostřednictvím tříleté etnografické studie center nabízejících volnočasové aktivy pouze pro seniory. Představuje aktivní stárnutí jako techniku biomoci. Zároveň vyzdvihuje roli aktivity jako výrazného mechanismu konstrukce normativního obrazu „dobrého stáří“, který na jednu stranu slouží seniorům jako prostředek vymezení se vůči stereotypním obrazům stárnutí, na druhé straně se ale jeho prostřednictvím konstituují nové nerovnosti založené na možnosti/ochotě „aktivně stárnout“.

A Black Fox Running
'I have never read a novel about animals and the British countryside - with the single exception of BB's The Wild Lone - which has so moved or entranced me. Never' John Lewis-Stempel
This is the story of Wulfgar, the dark-furred fox of Dartmoor, and of his nemesis, Scoble the trapper, in the seasons leading up to the pitiless winter of 1947. As breathtaking in its descriptions of the natural world as it is perceptive in its portrayal of damaged humanity, it is both a portrait of place and a gripping story of survival.
Uniquely straddling the worlds of animals and men, Brian Carter's A Black Fox Running is a masterpiece: lyrical, unforgiving and unforgettable.
