The Opern Road: Global Journey of DalaiLama
Pico Iyer has been engaged in conversation with the Dalai Lama (a friend of his father's) for the last three decades - a continuing exploration of his message and its effectiveness. Now, in this insightful, impassioned book, Iyer captures the paradoxes of the Dalai Lama's position: though he has brought the ideas of Tibet to world attention, Tibet itself is being remade as a Chinese province; though he was born in one of the most remote, least developed places on earth, he has become a champion of globalism and technology. He is a religious leader who warns against being needlessly distracted by religion; a Tibetan head of state who suggests that exile from Tibet can be an opportunity; an incarnation of a Tibetan god who stresses his everyday humanity.Moving from Dharamsala, India - the seat of the Tibetan government-in-exile - to Lhasa, Tibet, to venues in the West where the Dalai Lama's pragmatism, rigour, and scholarship are sometimes lost on an audience yearning for mystical visions, The Open Road illuminates the hidden life, the transforming ideas, and the daily challenges of a global icon.

Thunder - All The Right Noises (Deluxe Edition) 2CD
KDO: Thunder je britská hard-rocková skupina, která vznikla v roce 1989 rozštěpením tehdejší formace Terraplane. Během devadesátých let se kapela proslavila hlavně v domovské Anglii, ale také v Japonsku. S několika přestávkami v činnosti působí na scéně dodnes.
CO: Třinácté studiové album britských hard-rockových hrdinů dostalo název "All The Right Noises". Album je návratem k "plnému" rockovému zvuku, který jim pomáhal vybudovat si úspěšnou, více jak třicetiletou kariéru. Skladby pro album byly napsány ještě před prvním lockdownem, a samotné album bylo natočeno během prvního měsíce první britské uzávěry, ale je zajímavé, jak aktuální přesto jsou i v této nové situaci, ve které se náš svět nachází. Kupříkladu první singl "Last One Out Turn Off The Lights" byl původně zamýšlen jako reakce na brexit, ale nyní je snad dle slov kapely ještě více aktuální.

Jude The Obscure
Hardy's masterpiece traces a poor stonemason's ill-fated romance with his free-spirited cousin. No Victorian institution is spared — marriage, religion, education — and the outrage following publication led the embittered author to renounce fiction. Modern critics hail this novel as a pioneering work of feminism and socialist thought.

In the Penal Colony
The story is set in an unnamed penal colony. Internal clues and the setting on an island suggest Octave Mirbeau's The Torture Garden as an influence. As in some of Kafka's other writings, the narrator in this story seems detached from, or perhaps numbed by, events that one would normally expect to be registered with horror. In the Penal Colony describes the last use of an elaborate torture and execution device that carves the sentence of the condemned prisoner on his skin in a script before letting him die, all in the course of twelve hours. As the plot unfolds, the reader learns more and more about the machine, including its origin, and original justification.

The House of Fortune
The House of Fortune is the sequel to Jessie Burton's million-copy bestseller The Miniaturist. Set in the golden city of Amsterdam in 1705, it is a story of fate and ambition, secrets and dreams, and one young woman's determination to rule her own destiny.
Thea Brandt is turning eighteen, and is ready to welcome adulthood with open arms. At the theatre, Walter, the love of her life, awaits her, but at home in the house on the Herengracht, winter has set in - her father Otto and Aunt Nella argue endlessly, and the Brandt family are selling their furniture in order to eat. On Thea's birthday, also the day that her mother Marin died, the secrets from the past begin to overwhelm the present.
Nella is desperate to save the family and maintain appearances, to find Thea a husband who will guarantee her future, and when they receive an invitation to Amsterdam's most exclusive ball, she is overjoyed - perhaps this will set their fortunes straight. And indeed, the ball does set things spinning: new figures enter their life, promising new futures. But their fates are still unclear, and when Nella feels a strange prickling sensation on the back of her neck, she wonders if the miniaturist has returned for her . . .

V roku 2001 bola uvedená do Rock and Rollovej siene slávy a piesne „Dream On“ a „Toys In The Attic“ boli zaradené na zoznam „500 piesní, ktoré formovali rock“.V 2005 ju časopis Rolling Stone umiestnil na 57. miesto v rebríčku stovky najvýznamnejších umelcov všetkých čias. Už od začiatku kariéry bola skupina známa aj svojou ťažkou drogovou závislosťou a alkoholizmom, na základe čoho si získala prívlastky „jednej z najrozhádanejších kapiel svetovej rockovej scény", ale aj „nezničiteľnej skupiny s deviatimi životmi“, ktorá sa dokázala dostať z dna opäť na vrchol.
v roku 2023 Aerosmith vydávajú nové reedície ich štúdiových a Live albumov, väčšinou z éry Columbia Records. Neexistujú žiadne bonusové skladby, ale všetky piesne boli pre tieto vydania nanovo remastrované. Väčšina albumov vyjde aj na LP.
