Tűzlovag
Taylor McAden, az észak-karolinai Eden önkéntes tűzoltója habozás nélkül kockáztat, mindig ő az első, aki a lángok közé veti magát, ha meg kell menteni valakit. Nem törődik a saját biztonságával, bátran szembenéz a halállal. Csupán egyetlen dologban nem mer kockáztatni: a szerelemben. Nem akad olyan nő, aki közel férkőzhetne a szívéhez.
Denise, a magányos fiatalasszony a könnyebb megélhetés reményében Atlantából költözik délre, a nagyszüleitől örökölt házba, ahol zavartalanul nevelheti, taníthatja a beteg kisfiát. A két magányos fiatal egy autóbaleset következtében találkozik, és az ismeretségükből akaratuk ellenére szerelem lesz. Taylor hiába küzd az érzései ellen, nem futamodhat meg élete legnagyobb bátorságot és elszántságot követelő lépése elől: de vajon lesz elég ereje számot vetni a múlt nyomasztó emlékeivel?

Despite warnings from her beloved Arcus, Ruby accompanies a roguish Fireblood named Kai to Sudesia, where she must master her control of fire in a series of trials to gain the trust of the suspicious Fireblood queen.

Roy Stuart, Embrace Your Fantasies
Between 1987 and 2001, Dian Hanson, then editor of Leg Show magazine, and photographer Roy Stuart collaborated on over 100 fetish photo shoots, producing an intensely sexual, socially transgressive body of work unmatched in contemporary erotic photography. Stuart, influenced by authors Angela Carter, William S. Burroughs, and Georges Bataille, was and remains passionately opposed to commercial pornography and insisted every photo story subvert and skewer some societally imposed sexual taboo. Women are portrayed with strength and sexual agency; men are often submissive; all are adventuresome and fluid. Hanson selected the wardrobe to appeal to a range of sexual tastes, including stocking, shoe, panty, nylon, and rubber fetishes. Viewed today, the styles and attitudes speak to the liberal hedonism of 1990s America, when, under the Clinton presidency, erotic artists were afforded more creative freedom.Power Play, the first volume in the series Roy Stuart: Embrace Your Fantasies, showcases photo stories addressing sexual power dynamics. All images are from the original transparencies, rescued from the Leg Show archives before the magazine's demise in 2012, and presented with Hanson's original magazine text.Join us in a trip back to the prosperous, optimistic 1990s to explore your fantasies-and perhaps some you never considered-with the richly produced sexual subversion of Roy Stuart and Dian Hanson.

Rough Past meets New Design
Buildings and spaces bearing traces of the past that are integrated into new functional and artistic concepts are galvanizing the architecture and design scene. As a result of the increased awareness of sustainability issues and growing appreciation for existing building structures more and more often the decision is being made to convert rather than demolish - sometimes also because of economic considerations. This volume explores the question of the functional and creative possibilities emerging from revitalization that respects existing structures. The projects carefully selected for this volume demonstrate their worth through sophisticated concepts of utilization and ingenious approaches to design. The existing building structure is not renovated or even restored, but rather left as it is found with traces of past uses, often of its demise, preserved, sometimes carefully enhanced. Whether through aggressive contrast with the new or an interpretation of the existing spaces and surfaces, the interventions always show respect and consideration and establish an enthralling relationship between the old and the new.

Dexter is Dead
Dexter Morgan has burned the candle at both ends for many years. Blood spatter analyst ...husband ...father ...serial killer. And now, for the first time, his world has truly collapsed. Dexter is arrested on charges of murder. He has lost everything - including his wife, his kids, and the loyalty of his sister. Now completely alone, Dexter faces a murder charge (for a crime ...ironically ...he did not actually commit). His only chance for freedom lies with his brother, Brian, who has a dark plan to prove Dexter's innocence. But the stakes are deadly, and the epic showdown that lies in Dexter's path may lead, once and for all, to his demise. Jeff Lindsay's trademark devilish wit and cutting satire have never been sharper. Dexter Is Dead marks the end of a beloved series, but is also Dexter's most satisfying and suspenseful outing yet.

A SUNDAY TIMES POP BOOK OF THE YEAR
A DAILY TELEGRAPH MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR
A DAILY MAIL MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR
A TIMES MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR ('Of the many Led Zeppelin biographies marking the band's 50th anniversary, this is the most illuminating')
OBSERVER BEST BOOKS OF 2018
'An enthralling and rigorously researched book' Sunday Times
'Blake has talked to everyone, and the stories are both lurid and melancholy' Mail on Sunday
'A juicy saga of excess all areas, Mark Blake's biography of Led Zeppelin's notoriously combative manager, Peter Grant, reads at times like an all-you-can-eat buffet of guilty pleasures . . . a riotous roller coaster' The Times
'A tale as expansive and complex as the man himself' Mojo
'To say Bring It On Home is a rambunctious page-turner is an understatement; but despite all the violence and weirdness, you can't help liking the "real" Peter Grant who emerges here' Planet Rock
The late Peter Grant managed Led Zeppelin to global stardom. But his life story was every bit as extraordinary and dramatic as the musicians he looked after. For the first time ever, the Grant family have allowed an author access to previously unseen correspondence and photographs to help build the most complete and revealing story yet of a man who was a pioneer of rock music management, but also a son, a husband and a father.
Published to coincide with Led Zeppelin's 50th anniversary, Bring It On Home charts Peter Grant's rise from wartime poverty through his time as a nightclub doorman, wrestler and bit-part actor to the birth of rock'n'roll in the 1950s. From here, it explores his pivotal role in the formation of Led Zeppelin and charts the impossible highs and lows of life on the road with rock's most outrageous band.
Bring It On Home includes almost 100 new interviews with family members, friends, musicians and rival managers, and walk-on parts for Sharon Osbourne, Bob Dylan, Stanley Kubrick, Freddie Mercury, Elizabeth Taylor, the FBI, the CIA, the Mafia - and Elvis Presley. As Grant's son Warren says now: 'My dad knew everyone.'
It is the first biography to reveal the truth behind Led Zeppelin's demise, Grant's subsequent fall from grace amid death threats and the shadow of organised crime, and his final days as a man who shunned the excesses of the music industry in favour of his friends and family.
With access to several previously unpublished interviews - including Grant's last and most revealing yet - Bring It On Home sheds new light on the story of rock's greatest manager and one of the giants of modern music history.

Jak svět přichází o básniky DVD
Poetickou komedii JAK SVĚT PŘICHÁZÍ O BÁSNÍKY natočil režisér Dušan Klein podle půvabné knížky Ladislava Pecháčka Amatéři. Hlavními hrdiny jsou dva kamarádi, studenti posledního ročníku gymnázia v malém městě. Štěpán píše básně a jeho přítel Kendy je zhudebňuje. Ředitelce školy však Štěpánova tvorba přijde nemravná, a tak se na její popud chlapci rozhodnou "udělat něco pořádného". Zhostí se příprav na experimentální divadelní představení, jež by se zapsalo do historie městečka. Volba padne na Tylovu hru Lesní panna aneb Cesta do Ameriky, kterou ale nadšení tvůrci radikálně změní. Právě tak jako vývoj situace okolo příprav divadelní hry je pro film důležitý i citový vztah dospívajícího Štěpána k "Borůvce". Tato dívka je nakonec příčinou toho, že česká a možná i světová literatura příjde o jednoho začínajícího BÁSNÍKA...

Gedanken für den Tag
Die Mutter Rainer Maria Rilkes war gerade 30 Jahre alt, als sie sich entschloss, ihre Ehe mit Rilkes Vater zu beenden. Die gebildete Frau lebte von da an allein, reiste viel und nahm mit wachen Sinnen und kritischem Blick ihre Umwelt wahr. 1900 veröffentlichte sie eine kleine Sammlung von Sentenzen, die sie "Ephemeriden" nannte, für den Tag Notiertes. Mehr als hundert Jahre später zeigt sich, dass viele dieser durch Erfahrung und Beobachtung gewonnenen Einsichten und Ansichten durchaus zeitlos sind. Auch die leise Selbstironie, mit der einige von ihnen formuliert sind, teilt sich noch immer unmittelbar mit. Grund genug für Hella Sieber-Rilke, sie, ergänzt durch unveröffentlichte Briefe des Dichters, der die Entstehung und Verbreitung des Buches mit Ratschlägen begleitet hatte, neu herauszugeben.
