Palackba zárt múlt
Az egykor menő tévés borszakértőnek számító Bente Hammar médiakarrierjének egy kínos eset vetett véget. Most egy középszerű étterem pincérnőjeként dolgozik, de a borok iránti szenvedélye változatlan, és amikor egy párizsi barátja egy régi palack bor kapcsán kéri a segítségét, örömmel kap az alkalmon. A palackon svéd felirat olvasható, és a nyomozásba kezdő Bente hamar rádöbben, hogy a bor mögött lenyűgöző történet rejtőzik, amely egészen a második világháborúig és egy abba belekeveredett fiatal svéd férfiig vezet.
A titokzatos palack ráadásul esélyt jelent tévés karrierje felélesztésére, ebben pedig tökéletes partnerre talál Didrik Holgersson történészben, aki magánéleti válságából keres kiutat. Párosuk hamarosan egy francia faluban találja magát, ahol a nyomozásuk során háborús rémtettek és egy tiltott szerelem következményei tárulnak eléjük. A múlt megismerése közben pedig saját életük is új színben tűnik fel: mi és ki az igazán fontos számukra.
Heléne Holmström, a nagy sikerű Karácsonyi kovász szerzőjének új könyve ízekkel és érzelmekkel teli olvasmány arról, hogy merjünk álmodni... ugyanakkor legyen bátorságunk is megkérdőjelezni azokat.

The Sartorialist. India
An intoxicating mix of color, pattern, and texture, The Sartorialist: India is a photographic tribute to the country's diversity and splendor. Famed American photographer and blogger Scott Schuman journeyed to India many times to capture its wildly idiosyncratic styles, whether on the streets, in markets, on the cricket fields, or at residences in cities like Delhi, Jaipur, Pushkar, and Mumbai.
Schuman's affinity for his subjects is evident, and he celebrates people of all ages and from all walks of life, from ravers, transgender subjects, wrestlers, surfers, grandfathers, and fashionistas to children and laborers. He also shines a light on the new India as much as on the time-honored. The casually chic layering of textiles, the enduring prevalence of traditional attire, and India's pure physical beauty all add up to a richly satisfying visual and cultural experience. The images are also illuminated by an introduction by the acclaimed fashion writer Bandana Tewari.
This vibrant monograph is Schuman's first for TASCHEN, and it showcases all the unique qualities that have brought him worldwide renown: a photojournalist's eye for a decisive moment, a humanist's sense of empathy, and a fashion aficionado's appreciation for design.
