The Circus Train
Brought together by magic.
Torn apart by war.
Europe, 1938. Even as the daughter of the extraordinary headlining illusionist, Lena Papadopoulos has never quite found her place within the World of Wonders - a travelling circus that traverses the continent in a luxury steam engine. Brilliant and curious, Lena yearns for the real-world magic of science and medicine, despite the limitations she feels in her wheelchair. But when a young French orphan, Alexandre, comes aboard the circus train, Lena's life is infused with magic and wonder for the first time.
But outside the bright lights of the circus, darkness is descending on Europe. War is about to shatter Lena's world, and take away everything she holds dear. And to recover what she has lost, Lena will have to believe in the impossible.
A must-read for fans of Water for Elephants, The Circus Train will take readers on a heart-wrenching two-decade journey across a continent in which great beauty and unimaginable horror live side by side.

Lepkeszárnyak
Lloyd halott. A könyvem pedig akkora port kavart, hogy az emberek és névtelenek közt háború van készülőben. Vissza kell szereznem azokat a képességeket, amikről egy jobb élet reményében mondtam le. Csak így nyerhetünk.Egy furcsa üzenet tettekre sarkall, de félek, választanom kell a szeretteim és a saját biztonságom között. A nyilvános kivégzéstől már nincs, aki megmentsen. Vagy mégis? A halál egy medve képében érkezik hozzám…Vajon mit tehetek én, Auróra azért, hogy béke legyen az univerzumban? Hogy ne zsákmányolják ki tovább a névteleneket? Visszaszerezhetők azok az erők, amikről én magam mondtam le? Ha igen, milyen áron? És a legfontosabb; vajon folytatódhat-e az a gyilkos keringő köztem és Lloyd között, amibe a jóslat szerint a végén egyikünk belehal?
A Lepkeszárnyak a Bolygókeringő trilógia zárókötete.
„Igazi űropera bolygóközi utazással, különleges, már-már mágiába hajló képességekkel, életeken és végeérhetetlen korokon átívelő szerelemmel. Egyszerűen letehetetlen.” S. A. Locryn, író
„A Lepkeszárnyak méltó lezárása Lloyd és Auróra történetének, amelyben az írónő ezúttal is megmutatta, hogy képes meglepni az olvasót. Engem teljesen magával ragadott ez az izgalmas kötet!”Horváth Tamásné, Inci, Könyvszenvedély blog
„Végre egy befejező rész, amely méltó az első kettőhöz! Kaland, izgalom, érzelmek – magyar tollból nem csak magyaroknak!” Isabel Healian Rose, Álmok útján blog
„Megalkotott egy történetet, hozzá szereplőket, akik immáron halhatatlanok lettek. Mi, olvasók pedig egy világot kaptunk, ahová örömmel térhetünk vissza bármikor, ha Lloyd csipkelődésére, vagy a névtelenek csodájára vágyunk.”Gallai Emese, Falakmögött blog
„Azt hiszem, ez az a kötet, ahol az olvasók minden álma és rémálma is valóra válik. De mégis, olyan érzelmes és gyönyörű, hogy nem lehet nem imádni.”Lukács Edina, Booktime blog
„Sajnos minden utazás véget ér egyszer. Auróra és Lloyd történetének befejezése pedig egyszerre csodálatos és szívet tépő.”Debreczeny Dia, Könyvek és regények világa.

Redouté - Roses
The revered tradition of botanical illustration dates back to the Renaissance. It emerged from the desire to catalog nature in its unpredictable splendor, and the process demanded the most precise and talented of artists.
With a remarkable skill that captured the most intricate subjects in nature, Pierre-Joseph Redouté is widely considered the best painter and engraver of botanical illustration. Working from live plants rather than from the herbarium specimens gave his watercolors unusual subtlety and freshness. He was also an innovator in printing techniques, introducing "stipple-engraving" to France, always striving for greater exactitude in his art. Redouté fortuitously acquired some of the most influential patrons of the time, including Marie Antoinette and Empress Josephine Bonaparte, thus ensuring that his work was well-funded and displayed.His impressive collection comprises over 2,000 paintings of plants rendered with great accuracy and strict adherence to nature. In this exquisite edition of Les Roses, Redouté turns his attention to the most romantic, desirable, and evocative flower. Originally published in three volumes between 1817 and 1824, it remains his most famous and celebrated work.
No Signal
Between 2015 and 2020, photographer Brice Portolano travelled from the islands of Alaska to the Patagonian steppe and from the forests of Lapland to the highlands of Iran to capture the daily lives of 10 extraordinary people who made profound changes in their lives in order to live closer to nature. They consciously built a life away from the hustle and bustle of the city, usually without a phone signal or internet access. Their lives are arduous, but also full of a sense of personal freedom, self-determination, and fulfilment. These photographs present an inspiring vision of the joys of finding one's place in the world and the challenges of living off the grid.
In these 10 vivid portraits of alternative lifestyles, we meet: Tinja, the dog sled driver in Lapland; Ali, the Persian horseman; Barny, the self-supporter in a circus wagon in Cumbria, England; Zaya, the reindeer herder in the Mongolian taiga; George, the hostel father in Tuscany; Sylwia, the artist on the Greek island of Lefkada; Sky, the Argentinean goucha; Ben, the hunter in Utah, USA; Jerry, the oyster farmer in Alaska; Elena, the lighthouse keeper in Norway.

The Gentleman’s Seduction
‘Tis the season…for revenge.
Eleven years ago during Christmas, Martin Banks’ family was thrown into the streets by wealthy landlord, Edwin Hartwell. Now this holiday season, Fate has handed Martin an unexpected gift. Vengeance. Defeating Hartwell at cards gives Martin the chance to financially ruin the man—but damn, instead of money, Hartwell offers his daughter as payment. And double damn, Martin stupidly accepts. How did retribution turn into seduction? Martin refuses to let himself fall in love, so there must be rules to this game.
And perhaps a bit of romance.
Desperate to save her father from ruin, Livvy Hartwell agrees to accompany Martin as his paramour. She long ago accepted that a penniless bluestocking like herself had no chance for a well-suited marriage. If a few passionate months with a man like Martin is all she’ll ever have as far as romance, it’s an opportunity she will take. But she must guard her heart. He might be handsome as the devil and tempting as sin, but she can’t be a typical mistress and doesn’t want Martin to call her such. In fact, she has a list of rules.
Livvy’s Rules:
~ Adventures outdoors such as horseback riding would be appreciated.
~ Evening meals should be eaten together to converse about the day’s events.
~ Allotted time alone to read gothic novels.
~ Kissing should be kept at a minimum.
Martin’s Rules:
~ Adventures are required—particularly indoors—and will be greatly appreciated.
~ Evening meals will sometimes be eaten in the bedroom, naked.
~ Allotted time together to act out the sensual gothic novels.
~ Kissing—a lot of it and in some very pleasurable spots — is required.

Into the Wild
Jon Krakauer's Into the Wild examines the true story of Chris McCandless, a young man who walked deep into the Alaskan wilderness and whose SOS note and emaciated corpse were found four months later.
In April 1992, Chris McCandless set off alone into the Alaskan wild. He had given his savings to charity, abandoned his car and his possessions, and burnt the money in his wallet, determined to live a life of independence. Just four months later, Chris was found dead. An SOS note was taped to his makeshift home, an abandoned bus.
In piecing together the final travels of this extraordinary young man's life, Jon Krakauer writes about the heart of the wilderness, its terribly beauty and its relentless harshness. Into the Wild is a modern classic of travel writing, and a riveting exploration of what drives some of us to risk more than we can afford to lose.
From the author of Under the Banner of Heaven and Into Thin Air. A film adaptation of Into the Wild was directed by Sean Penn and starred Emile Hirsch and Kristen Stewart.

Walking Monuments - nemecky - amusante wanderung fur kinder aller alter
Toto šarmantné mesto je hlavným mestom Slovenskej Republiky. Leží medzi riekou Dunaj (ľudia ho volajú aj „Krásavica na Dunaji“) a úpätím Malých Karpát. Úžasná blízkosť Viedne a hranice s Rakúskom, Maďarskom (tieto krajiny môžeš vidieť z hradného kopca voľným okom) a Českou Republikou robia návštevu ešte zaujímavejšou. V priebehu dejín videla Bratislava prichádzať a odchádzať mnoho kráľov, armád, umelcov a učencov. Čo ostalo, sú krásne pamiatky. This charming town is the capital of Slovak Republic. It sits between the river Danube (people call the city also “A beauty at the Danube”) and the foothills of Carpathian Mountains. Striking proximity to Vienna (70 km) and the border to Austria, Hungary (you can see these countries from the hill castle with a naked eye) and Czech Republic make the visit even more attractive. In the course of history Bratislava has seen many kings, armies, artists and scholars coming and going. What stayed are the beautiful monuments.

Srdce temnoty
Kultovní kniha ve 2 verzích: pro mírně pokročilé i pokročilé! Předtím, než vyšla novela Heart of Darkness (Srdce temnoty) v roce 1902 knižně, vycházela na pokračování v časopisu Blackwood’s Magazine. Příběh z větší části vypráví Angličan Charles Marlow, který byl kapitánem říčního parníku v Africe. I autor příběhu Joseph Conrad (3. 12. 1857 – 3. 8. 1924), anglický spisovatel polského původu a bývalý námořník, strávil pár let před vznikem novely nějakou dobu na parníku v africkém Kongu. V příběhu, který je bohatý nejen obsahově (setkáváme se zde s popisem reálného děje i s různými pro Conrada typickými symboly), ale i z jazykového hlediska svou širokou slovní zásobou a ne úplně typicky anglickým používáním mnoha přídavných jmen (není povzbuzující, že autor se takto anglicky naučil až v dospělosti?), narazíme na problém kolonialismu a problém vlivu prostředí (africké džungle) na (civilizovaného) člověka. Tyto problémy se navzájem prolínají. Editoři amerického nakladatelství Modern Library zařadili knihu mezi 100 nejlepších románů. Byla námětem pro slavný Coppolův film Apokalypsa (Apocalypse Now, 1979). V našem vydání máte možnost si přečíst a poslechnout originální verzi díla opatřenou jazykovými komentáři a literárními poznámkami. Ti z Vás, kteří se necítí v angličtině příliš pevní v kramflecích, si mohou nejdříve přečíst zjednodušenou verzi se zrcadlovým českým překladem.
