Retired officer Colonel Mortimer takes a lease on the mansion of Brentwood, the grounds of which share the ruins of an older house, including a strange, vacant doorway, but eerie events begin to unfold and Mortimer's son falls ill.

Birds
"One need not ponder whether Birds: Poetry in the Sky is more a bird book or an art book: it fits each category. But whatever shelf it belongs on is really irrelevant - it's enough to say that the book is magnificent." - 10,000 Birds
"...This is photographic art of birds 'where they live' and where humans must watch in awe." - Wildlife Australia
The fascination birds evoke in us continues unabated. Australian artist and photographer Christian Spencer, living in the vicinity of the Brazilian rainforest since 2001, has surrendered to it as well.
"The camera is my brush," is how he describes his style. His photographs truly capture the poetry of nature, letting its beauty speak for itself - which is why he forgoes any image editing. He was the first to capture the breathtakingly fast beating of hummingbirds' wings in the sunlight, which forms a rainbow in the air.
The world of birds unfolds before his lens in all its colourful glory and elegance: in reflections on the water, between blossoms and trees, and high above the treetops.

The History of Western Art
A concise, reader-friendly illustrated survey of Western art and architecture from prehistory to the present day.
Acknowledging how architecture, painting, sculpture and the decorative arts reflect the culture and society of their time, this latest addition to the Art Essentials series invites the reader to experience and appreciate the entirety of Western art from prehistory to today.
Focusing on the 'history' in art history, each of the twelve chapters opens with a question to ponder, followed by a summary of the major historical developments of the period, touching on social structure, political organization, migration, race, religious beliefs, scientific advances and customs. An exploration of these themes in the visual arts reveals how architecture, sculpture and painting simultaneously shape, reflect, and document the culture of the time and place they were created. A secondary focus explores the constantly evolving aesthetic preferences that swing between naturalism and abstraction, with each era and style either rebelling against the previous or seeking to improve it. Antecedents and outside influences are also discussed.
Své milence, písně Viviany /komplet/ 2xkniha
Korespondence Jaroslava Vrchlického s Justýnou Vondroušovou z let 1904-1908 sestává z dvou titulů ve společném boxu a v obou knihách je dobře rozkryto inspirační zázemí Vrchlického vrcholné tvůrčí etapy. Oba protagonisté si pro korespondenci vybrali jména z artušovské legendy on je kouzelníkem Merlinem, ona je čarodějkou Vivianou.
Milostný zážeh a cit zároveň obdařil korespondenci takovým množstvím neznámých básní, že se editor rozhodl vedle korespondence sestavit z nich novou sbírku s názvem Písně Viviany. Korespondence pak nastiňuje nejen představu o organizaci vzájemných schůzek (s občas pikantními detaily), ale obsahuje také pozoruhodný reflexivní deník..
Jinde čtenář nahlíží básníkovi pod ruku při tvorbě jeho jediného románu Loutky nebo při vzniku her a může sledovat jejich další postup na scénu konkrétně Godivu, kterou bylo otevřeno Vinohradské divadlo, nebo debakl Trilogie o Simsonovi.

Vidělo to šest mužů. Jednoho z nich unesli. Ale uvěří jim to někdo? V roce 1975 objevil dřevorubec Travis Walton (D.B. Sweeney) a jeho spolupracovníci vznášející se UFO. Waltonovi parťáci utekli, ale on takové štěstí neměl. Na palubě podivné vesmírné lodi byl vystaven bolestivému, nadpozemskému zkoumání. Oheň v oblacích je příběh o utrpení, opovržení a výsměchu těm, kteří se snaží vysvětlit Waltonovo záhadné zmizení (byl nalezen o pět dní později zakrvácený a pomlácený). James Garner hraje vyšetřovatele, který má podezření, že historka pětice může být jen zastírání vraždy. Robert Patrick, Craig Sheffer, Peter Berg, Bradley Gregg a Henry Thomas se připojili ke Sweeneymu v rolích mužů, jež postihla událost, kterou by normálně považovali za nemožnou, kdyby se nestala právě jim...

Nina Simone's Gum
From award-winning musician and composer Warren Ellis comes the unexpected and inspiring story of a piece of chewing gum.
FEATURING AN INTRODUCTION BY NICK CAVE
I hadn't opened the towel that contained her gum since 2013. The last person to touch it was Nina Simone, her saliva and fingerprints unsullied. The idea that it was still in her towel was something I had drawn strength from. I thought each time I opened it some of Nina Simone's spirit would vanish. In many ways that thought was more important than the gum itself.
On Thursday 1 July, 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave's Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage, took Dr Simone's piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, a conduit that would eventually take Ellis back to his childhood and his relationship with found objects, growing in significance with every passing year.
Nina Simone's Gum is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love.

The Man Who Solved the Market
Jim Simons is the greatest moneymaker in modern financial history. His record bests those of legendary investors, including Warren Buffett, George Soros and Ray Dalio. Yet Simons and his strategies are shrouded in mystery. The financial industry has long craved a look inside Simons's secretive hedge fund, Renaissance Technologies and veteran Wall Street Journal reporter Gregory Zuckerman delivers the goods.
After a legendary career as a mathematician and a stint breaking Soviet codes, Simons set out to conquer financial markets with a radical approach. Simons hired physicists, mathematicians and computer scientists - most of whom knew little about finance - to amass piles of data and build algorithms hunting for the deeply hidden patterns in global markets. Experts scoffed, but Simons and his colleagues became some of the richest in the world, their strategy of creating mathematical models and crunching data embraced by almost every industry today.
As Renaissance became a major player in the financial world, its executives began exerting influence on other areas. Simons became a major force in scientific research, education and Democratic politics, funding Hilary Clinton's presidential campaign. While senior executive Robert Mercer is more responsible than anyone else for the Trump presidency - he placed Steve Bannon in the campaign, funded Trump's victorious 2016 effort and backed alt-right publication Breitbart. Mercer also impacted the success of the Brexit campaign as he made significant investments in Cambridge Anatlytica. For all his prescience, Simons failed to anticipate how Mercer's activity would impact his firm and the world.
In this fast-paced narrative, Zuckerman examines how Simons launched a quantitative revolution on Wall Street, and reveals the impact that Simons, the quiet billionaire king of the quants, has had on worlds well beyond finance.

Fake
On chodí po červeném koberci. Ona ho umí spíš luxovat.
Když skandál poškodí pověst pekelně sexy celebrity Patricka Walshe, potřebuje si zachránit pověst, a to rychle.
Na scéně se objevuje číšnice Norah Peersová – obyčejná nula. Je po ruce, spolehlivá a zapřísahala se, že už do konce života nechce mít s mužskými nic společného. Jinými slovy, je to ideální partnerka pro falešný románek bez závazků.
Za patřičný obnos může nechat práce číšnice a hrát roli jeho obyčejné přítelkyně. Co však – krucinál – nemůže, je vyhnout se rostoucí vzájemné přitažlivosti.
Jenže mít v patách paparazzie a vidět svůj život rozpitvaný na sociálních sítích je nejlepší cesta k panické atace. A i když je Patrick na plátně okouzlující darebák, ve skutečném životě jde o stopětaosmdesáticentimetrového nepochopitelného, nádherného, zádumčivého bručouna, který si od Norah udržuje odstup… ale také v ní budí dojem, že tohle pouto mezi nimi možná není jenom hrané.
Dostat v pravou chvíli kopačky by nemělo být nic zásadního. Jenomže falešný vztah s Patrickem je tak reálný, jak to Norah nikdy nezažila. Co má tahle holka dělat jiného než zahodit scénář a navrhnout novou verzi made in Hollywood?

Živého ma nedostanete!
Autentické a napínavé spomienky katolíckeho kňaza Františka Revesa zo začiatku 50. rokov 20. storočia, z čias komunistickej totality a prenasledovania. Reves spolupracoval s bl. Titusom Zemanom a stal sa hlavným organizátorom ilegálnych útekov kňazov, bohoslovcov a laikov do slobodného sveta. Po zatknutí Titusa Reves v tejto nebezpečnej činnosti pokračoval a podarilo sa mu dostať za hranice vyše sto ľudí, z toho osemdesiat duchovných. Maskoval sa ako komunistický agent, nosil dlhý plášť s komunistickým odznakom, noviny Pravda, falošné okuliare, nechal si narásť bradu a fúzy, dokonca bol postrelený a vyskočil z vlaku. Nakoniec emigroval i on a skoro štyridsať rokov pôsobil ako misionár Slovákov vo Francúzsku, kde napísal aj tieto spomienky. Kniha je obohatená o fotografie a životopis Revesa, dokumenty z archívu Ústavu pamäti národa, štúdiu cirkevnej historičky prof. Emílie Hrabovec, či o spomienky na Revesa od jeho príbuzných a priateľov. Inšpiratívne čítanie k odvážnemu svedectvu viery aj v dnešnej dobe.

The Nature Of Middle-Earth Deluxe Edition
This elegant slipcased edition presents for collectors the first ever publication of J.R.R. Tolkien's final writings on Middle-earth, covering a wide range of subjects. Stamped in gold foil, and printed on heavyweight acid-free paper, it includes a ribbon marker and is housed in a custom-built matching slipcase.
It is well known that J.R.R. Tolkien published The Hobbit in 1937 and The Lord of the Rings in 1954-5. What may be less known is that he continued to write about Middle-earth in the decades that followed, right up until the years before his death in 1973.
For him, Middle-earth was part of an entire world to be explored, and the writings in The Nature of Middle-earth reveal the journeys that he took as he sought to better understand his unique creation. From sweeping themes as complex and profound as the metaphysics of Elvish immortality and reincarnation, and the Powers of the Valar, to the more earth-bound subjects of the lands and beasts of Numenor, the geography of the Rivers and Beacon-hills of Gondor, and even who had beards!
This new collection, which has been edited by Carl F Hostetter, one of the world's leading Tolkien experts, is a veritable treasure-trove offering readers a chance to peer over Professor Tolkien's shoulder at the very moment of discovery: and on every page, Middle-earth is once again brought to extraordinary life.
