Ostrůvky uprostřed všedního dne
Ústřední otázka benediktinských exercicií zní: Jak najdu a zakusím Boha? A také: Jak objevím své pravé já, onen jedinečný obraz, který si o mně Bůh vytvořil? A dále: Jak dosáhnu uzdravení? Mystická cesta je vždycky zároveň i cestou terapeutickou, po níž máme dospět k uzdravení a vnitřní svobodě. Máme na ní Ježíšovu Duchu dovolit, aby nás stále dokonaleji očišťoval a osvěcoval, tak abychom se skrze Krista sjednotili s Bohem a se svým nejvnitřnějším ryzím bytím. Tato benediktinská cesta je dnes pro mnohé přitažlivá, zejména proto, že dává odpovědi na mnohé otázky, které si moderní člověk klade a nabízí dnes tolik potřebné uzdravení ducha a duše.
Pokora znamená odvahu přijmout pravdu o sobě. Postoj pokory počítá i s pokusem vyhýbat se nepříjemné pravdě o sobě a setrvat ve vlastních ideálních představách o sobě. Biblické příběhy, které v dalším textu nabídnu k meditaci, jsou pozváním k pohledu na sebe takové, jací opravdu jsme, včetně našich hříchů a vin. Tyto příběhy v nás ale nemají vyvolávat na prvním místě špatné svědomí. Prostě jen vyprávějí o lidech, kteří se znovu a znovu proviňují, aniž bychom je soudili. Biblické texty nás mají povzbudit, abychom se postavili pravdě o sobě, aniž bychom se ničili pocity viny.

Oxford Dictionary of Slang (Oxford Paperback Reference)
Our longstanding love affair with the undignified bits of our language - the unguarded vocabulary of conversation, the quirky slang of in-groups, the colourful outbursts of lexis in extremis - has assured us a continuing tradition of collecting such words together in dictionaries. Rather than using the alphabetical format favoured by most of these, however, the Oxford Dictionary of Slang takes in turn each area of life and each aspect of the world that generates significant amounts of slang, and builds up a picture of how our off-guard speech has changed down the years. There is also a full alphabetical index. Containing over 10,000 words and phrases, this is the ideal reference for those interested in the more quirky and unofficial words used in the English language. Including surprisingly old words such as booze and guzzle to the most up-to-date words like humongous and lunchbox, this fascinating book is sure to provide a stonking good read for all.

Lacná kniha Children of Hurin (-90%)
Painstakingly restored from Tolkien's manuscripts and presented for the first time as a fully continuous and standalone story, the epic tale of The Children of Hurin will reunite fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with Elves and Men, dragons and Dwarves, eagles and Orcs, and the rich landscape and characters unique to Tolkien. There are tales of Middle-earth from times long before The Lord of the Rings, and the story told in this book is set in the great country that lay beyond the Grey Havens in the West: lands where Treebeard once walked, but which were drowned in the great cataclysm that ended the First Age of the World. In that remote time Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in the vast fortress of Angband, the Hells of Iron, in the North; and the tragedy of Turin and his sister Nienor unfolded within the shadow of the fear of Angband and the war waged by Morgoth against the lands and secret cities of the Elves. Their brief and passionate lives were dominated by the elemental hatred that Morgoth bore them as the children of Hurin, the man who had dared to defy and to scorn him to his face. Against them he sent his most formidable servant, Glaurung, a powerful spirit in the form of a huge wingless dragon of fire. Into this story of brutal conquest and flight, of forest hiding-places and pursuit, of resistance with lessening hope, the Dark Lord and the Dragon enter in direly articulate form. Sardonic and mocking, Glaurung manipulated the fates of Turin and Nienor by lies of diabolic cunning and guile, and the curse of Morgoth was fulfilled. The earliest versions of this story by J.R.R. Tolkien go back to the end of the First World War and the years that followed; but long afterwards, when The Lord of the Rings was finished, he wrote it anew and greatly enlarged it in complexities of motive and character: it became the dominant story in his later work on Middle-earth. But he could not bring it to a final and finished form. In this book Christopher Tolkien has constructed, after long study of the manuscripts, a coherent narrative without any editorial invention.

Songs of Distant Earth
High above them, Lora and Clyde heard a sound their world had not heard for centuries - the thin scream of a starship coming in from outer space, leaving a long white tail like smoke across the clear blue sky. They looked at each other in wonder. After three hundred years of silence, Earth had reached out once more to touch Thalassa ...' And with the starship comes knowledge, and love, and pain. In these five science-fiction stories Arthur C. Clarke takes us travelling through the universe into the unknown, but always possible future.
