Z rozprávkovej postieľky
Kniha prenesie deti do čarovného sveta rozprávok. Ako presne to v rozprávkovom svete vyzerá, zachytil vo svojich ilustráciách Adolf Born, a čo všetko sa tam môže stať, rozpráva Jiří Žáček. Jeho rozprávkovú reč si deti obľúbili. Je blízka fantázii detských rojkov, ktorí majú radosť, keď pomôžu tajomstvá a čary, aby sa všetko dobre skončilo. Dvadsaťpäť rozprávok, aj keď niektoré sú známe, vďaka rozprávačovi si ako nové vychutnáme.
Aký by to bol život bez rozprávky? Jiří Žáček otvoril deťom, oteckom aj mamičkám rozprávkový svet, v ktorom je všetko ako v skutočnom svete, ale ešte je tam navyše čosi čarovné, čo namaľoval na svojich obrázkoch aj Adolf Born. Kde se vzali rozprávky a akú majú moc? Priniesla ich z pradávna rieka reči a rozprávač ich rozdelil do viet, aby ich mohol rozprávať opäť a zas, a zas a opäť.
A kto má uši, ten ho počuje, a kto má dušu, ten sa z jeho rozprávania raduje... Niektoré rozprávky už poznáme -- a predsa vďaku čaru, čo je v každom sliove, vypočujeme si aj tie známe ako celkom nové. O mačiatku, ktoré zabudlo mňaukať, Ako líška prekabátila medvedíky, O capkovi Nebojsovi, O troch malých prasiatkach, O hlúpom vlkovi, Dva mráziky, Popoluška, Pyšná princezná, Čo drží svet pohromade a veľa ďalších.
A či už sú rozprávky pravdivé, či vymyslené, a či sú veselé alebo nám zimomriavky naháňa ich čítanie, všetky sú v detských postieľočkach vítané. Dobrú noc!

Design as a way of life
Marc Newson’s complete works to date
This volume covering Marc Newson’s design career can, if you are ambitious enough, read like a catalog of how to live. Imagine waking up in the morning, taking a bath, drying your hair, getting dressed, putting on your glasses, spritzing yourself with perfume, sitting down to eat a breakfast of tea with eggs and toast, checking your watch, packing your suitcase, driving to the airport, catching a flight, and sailing off on a luxurious yacht. What’s remarkable about this scenario, aside from its opulence, is that everything in it could be a Newson design: the bed, bathtub, hair dryer, clothes, shoes, glasses, perfume bottle, electric kettle, teapot, toaster, skillet, spatula, cooktop, plates, utensils, watch, chair, table, lighting, suitcase, car, plane, and even the yacht.
No project is too small or too great for Newson, and his career is a testament to what one person with limitless ambition, ingenuity, curiosity, and versatility can achieve. From mass-produced objects to limited-edition furniture to one-of-a-kind superworks, Newson has blurred boundaries, mapped new territories, and risen to the top of his field in the process. To call the contributions Newson has made to the design world groundbreaking and influential is hardly adequate—more accurately, his is now the benchmark against which other designers' work must inevitably be compared.
This encyclopedic tome covers all of Newson’s works to date, beginning with foundational early pieces such as the Pod of Drawers and the Lockheed Lounge (which has broken the world record for the highest price paid for a piece of furniture by a living designer), in encyclopedia-style entries ordered chronologically by category: Objects, Furniture, Interiors, Transport, and Jewelry & Timepieces. Each description explores the story behind and the making of the piece, and is amply furnished with quotes from the designer himself. The book is rounded out by a visual index of Newson’s complete works, a chronology of his life, a bibliography, and his exhibition history.

Gilded Wolves
Paris, 1889. The city is on the cusp of industry and power, and the Exposition Universelle has breathed new life into the streets and dredged up ancient secrets.
Here, no one keeps tabs on dark truths better than treasure hunter and wealthy hotelier Severin Montagnet-Alarie. When the elite, ever-powerful Order of Babel coerces him to help them on a mission, Severin is offered a treasure that he never imagined: his true inheritance.
To hunt down the ancient artifact the Order seeks, Severin calls upon a band of unlikely experts: an engineer with a debt to pay; a historian banished from his home; a dancer with a sinister past; and a brother in arms if not blood.
Together they will join Severin as he explores the dark, glittering heart of Paris. What they find might change the course of history - but only if they can stay alive.
From New York Times bestselling author Roshani Chokshi comes a novel set in Paris during a time of extraordinary change - one that is full of mystery, decadence, and dangerous desires . . .

Hotwife Voyeur Resort: Truth Or Dare
The no-holds-barred Hotwife Resort caters to voyeuristic men yearning to watch their wives having sex with other men…and women. Amanda and Josh think they know what they’re getting into—until they play Extremely Erotic Truth and Dare with two other couples and one well-endowed black man. But when Amanda falls hard for her sexy bull, it breaks Josh’s heart. Can he find a way to win her back? ~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~ I took my drink outside and sat back in my lounge chair to have a pity party for myself. I'd agreed to this arrangement. I’d agreed Amanda could sleep around, and all I could do was watch. What if she fell for somebody else? What is she fell in love and left me? Did I need to look at flights home? If I did leave the resort, should I even tell her? Would it be better if I just disappeared? And the most important question of all, if I felt so badly, why am I so excited? Do I want to feel the humiliation, jealousy, and pain of watching my wife with another man? Is that what I really want? It hit me then, like a gut punch. I… was… Amanda’s… cuckold. I couldn’t deny it any longer. In which case I should stay. I relished the idea of watching my wife have sex with another man. I could feel my heart squeezing at just the thought of another man pushing inside Amanda. I wanted to see it happen. I wanted to be humiliated by it. I didn't understand the strong feelings I was having, it was wrong, but I wanted it more than anything at that moment. I must have briefly fallen asleep. I woke up with a full bladder, and an urgent need to talk to my wife. I went in to use the bathroom off the master bedroom. The blanket next to the stairs was laying bunched up, it was hard to tell in the dark if anyone was there. I made my way quietly up the stairs. The bathrooms were connected to the bedrooms and I negotiated my way, still half asleep, in the partial darkness. My bare feet made no noise as I walked toward our bedroom at the end of the hall. “Oh… James… I don’t know… you might be too big for me,” it was my wife’s voice. She sounded excited. “Be gentl … oh, James.” I pressed my body to the wall next to the door and peeked around the corner. My urge to urinate was gone, but my excitement remained. I wrapped my fist around myself, both to keep it from hitting the edge of the door and because it felt so good. James was laying on the near edge of the bed, his legs on the floor and his back on the mattress. I could just see how shockingly long he was when held by my petite wife. She was standing next to him with her legs spread, licking his him while he stroked her between the thighs. “I know what you want, Amanda. You’ve been looking at me from the time you arrived,” James had his hands on her hips, trying to draw her closer. “Oh… James, I really want to… but Josh wants,” she had to stop talking when he moved his hand to stroke her faster. “I’m so… Josh wants… to watch… the first time.” I wanted to shout, “I’m watching.” I had one hand on myself and the other on the doorframe. “Just let me touch it… like I did before.” My wife stroked him. She tried to wrap her tiny married hand around his immense shaft. “You can’t even get your hand all the way around it, can you?” he asked her. “Tell me what it feels like to hold.” “It feels so hot and…alive, James. I’m holding a thick, living, thing.” She said again. “I’m holding another man.” She was savoring the sentence. “I’m touching my wedding ring to you. Does that make me a cheater?” “It makes you a hotwife. Touch me with your ring again.” I watched my wife change her grip on his phallus. He was so long and thick, her fing

Alice's troubles, they discover, will shine the spotlight on all of them. And not in a good way. On the run across the American South with one of the most famous actresses in the world, the fans must evade the police, the Russian mafia and the Legion, an absurd but terrifying new far-right movement.
