Living floral
For this inspirational, yet instructive, book Shaw presents portraits of top tastemakers at home who share their joy of flowers. From interior designers Charlotte Moss, Suzanne Rheinstein, and Bunny Williams, and event designer Tara Guerard to floral and garden experts Sybil Sylvester and P. Allen Smith and culinary consultant Alex Hitz, these luminaries impart their personal botanical point of view.
They show how to incorporate flowers in home decor and present numerous ways to entertain with flair. Interior designers illustrate how eclectic furnishings work well with floral and botanical accents in fabric, wallpaper, artwork, and accessories to shape chic indoor spaces. We will learn how traditionalists and modernists put together an attractive table; for example, by mixing heirloom silver with simple white china and bright flowers arranged in everyday glass containers.
This gorgeously photographed book concludes with a primer on such topics as extending the life of fresh-cut flowers and assembling a table runner of charming blooms. Living Floral is a must-have for flower and interior design enthusiasts, as well as home gardeners.

Ďábel na jaře
Většina debutantek sní o tom, že si najde manžela. Lady Pandora Ravenelová má jiné plány. Ctižádostivá mladá kráska by mnohem raději zůstala doma a věnovala se podnikání se svou novou deskovou hrou, než aby se zúčastnila londýnské společenské sezóny. Jenže jednou v noci na plese společenské smetánky padne do pasti skandálu s hříšně hezkým cizincem.
Cynický prostopášník…
Poté, co se léta s lehkostí vyhýbal nástrahám manželství, se Gabriel, lord St. Vincent, konečně nechal nachytat – mladou rebelkou, která se k němu ani za mák nehodí. Po pravdě řečeno, nechce s ním nic mít. Jenže pro Gabriela je temperamentní Pandora naprosto neodolatelná. Udělá všechno, co je v jeho silách, aby ji získal, i když se z jejich manželství z rozumu vyklube smlouva s ďáblem.
Nebezpečné spiknutí…
Poté, co podlehne Gabrielovu obratnému a smyslnému přesvědčování, Pandora slíbí, že se stane jeho nevěstou. Zanedlouho však zjistí, že její podnikání ji shodou náhod zapletlo do nebezpečného spiknutí – a jen manžel ji může uchovat v bezpečí. Zatímco ji Gabriel ochraňuje před neznámými protivníky, zjišťují, že smlouva s ďáblem se může vlastně ukázat jako dar z nebes…

Anne Franková - komiksový životopis
Díky zázračně nalezenému deníku malé židovské dívky Anny Frankové, která zemřela v koncentračním táboře, mohou mladí čtenáři pochopit do hloubky hrůzy nacismu. Sid Jacobson a Ernie Colón zpracovali ve spolupráci s organizací Dům Anny Frankové v Amsterdamu životní příběh Anny, její sestry Margot a jejích rodičů ve formě komiksu, který zprostředkovává tragickou historii nejen jedné rodiny ještě mladším školním generacím.
Příběh začíná Anniným narozením v Německu a končí v okamžiku, kdy její přeživší tatínek Otto předává po válce nalezený deník nakladateli, a svědectví dívky, která se chtěla, ale nemohla stát spisovatelkou, obletí celý svět.
Scenárista Sid Jacobson pracoval jako šéfredaktor nakladatelství Harvey Comics, kde se setkal s výtvarníkem Erniem Colónem. Spolu pak připravili úspěšný komiks The 9/11 Report o událostech jedenáctého září roku 2001. Na tento titul navázali celou řadou společných projektů.

Old Drift
From the winner of the Caine Prize comes the Great Zambian novel you didn't know you were waiting for
Namwali Serpell's ground-shaking debut novel is an epic story of three generations of three Zambian families - one black, one brown and one white. Unfolding over 200 years, but set mainly in the twentieth century, one family begins in Italy, another in England and the third in Zambia.
The three families' lives become entwined as each is plagued by a curse passed on down the generations. Hugely ambitious, each of the three 'books' that make up the novel - The Grandmothers, The Mothers, The Children - engages with a different genre of writing, satirizing the kind of language historically used to describe Africa, whilst celebrating the diversity and hybridity of African culture.
Playful, full of humour and utterly captivating in its storytelling - this is a colossal novel that you can live in.
Sprawling out across time and space, it recalls One Hundred Years of Solitudeby Gabriel Garcia Marquez, animating a culture that cannot escape its colonial past, but which yearns for greatness.

Heroes
There are Heroes - and then there are Greek Heroes.
Few mere mortals have ever embarked on such bold and heart-stirring adventures, overcome myriad monstrous perils, or outwitted scheming vengeful gods, quite as stylishly and triumphantly as Greek heroes.
In this companion to his bestselling Mythos, Stephen Fry brilliantly retells these dramatic, funny, tragic and timeless tales. Join Jason aboard the Argo as he quests for the Golden Fleece. See Atalanta - who was raised by bears - outrun any man before being tricked with golden apples. Witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx and discover how Bellerophon captures the winged horse Pegasus to help him slay the monster Chimera.
Filled with white-knuckle chases and battles, impossible puzzles and riddles, acts of base cowardice and real bravery, not to mention murders and selfless sacrifices, Heroes is the story of what we mortals are truly capable of - at our worst and our very best.

Běh na dlouhou trať
V hlavě mu probíhá nekonečný řetěz vzpomínek, příhody z dětství, první láska, práce. Tok těch vzpomínek nemůže ovlivnit ani zastavit, ale je vlastně rád. Postupně si začíná uvědomovat. Jmenuje se Petr Martínek, je lékař a leží v nemocnici. Neví proč. Nejhorší však je, že nemůže reagovat, nemůže odpovídat, i když rozumí. Nemůže dát najevo, že je duchem přítomen. Je tak svědkem toho, že si nad ním povídají o jeho diagnóze a stejně tak i o perspektivě. Dostane se z tohoto děsivého a mučivého stavu? Kdy?
Sledujeme, jak sám začíná pátrat po tom, co se mu stalo. Prodělal průstřel lebky! Proč?
Nad jeho bezmocným klidem se rozvíjí systematické pátrání a postupně se dávají dohromady střípky z jeho života. Začíná se před námi odhalovat Martínek chlapec, dospělý muž a lékař se specializací psychiatra. Jdeme po jeho stopách.
Podaří se, aby zase byl jako dřív? Aby mluvil a reagoval? Vrátí se do života? A podaří se sehrané Hladíkově mordpartě najít pachatele, který Martínka postřelil a nechal na místě, aniž by mu přivolal pomoc? Kdo to mohl být? Udělal to někdo úmyslně? Byla to pomsta? Je možné, že by to spáchal nějaký nespokojený pacient? Anebo dokonce někdo z doby, kdy Martínek pracoval ve Francii?
Máme před sebou mnoho otazníků, a ne každý, kdo je kolem bezmocného doktora, se snaží mu pomáhat. Jsme vtaženi do děje… Podaří se ho zachránit?

A beautiful housekeeper with a monstrous smile.
And dark forces woken that were best left undisturbed.

Bong Joon-ho
Brilliantly illustrated and designed by the London-based film magazine Little White Lies, Bong Joon-ho examines the career of the South Korean writer/director, who has been making critically acclaimed feature films for more than two decades. First breaking out into the international scene with festival-favorite Barking Dogs Never Bite (2000), Bong then set his sights on the story of a real-life serial killer in 2003's Memories of Murder and once again won strong international critical attention, taking home the prize for Best Director at the San Sebastian Film Festival. But it was 2006's The Host that proved to be a huge breakout moment both for Bong and the Korean film industry. The monster movie, set in Seoul, premiered at Cannes and became an instant hit-South Korea's widest release ever, setting new box office records and selling remake rights in the US to Universal. Bong's next feature, Mother (2009) also premiered at Cannes, once again earning critical acclaim and appearing on many "best-of" lists for 2009/2010. Bong's first English-language film, Snowpiercer (2013)-set on a postapocalyptic train where class divisions erupt into class warfare-followed on its heels, bringing his work outside of the South Korean and film festival markets and onto the stage of global commercial cinema. With 2017's Okja (which became a center of controversy due to its being produced and released by Netflix), Bong became even more of an internationally known name, with the New York Times' A. O. Scott calling the film "a miracle of imagination and technique."
Bong's next film, the 2019 black comedy/thriller Parasite, simultaneously scaled back-the film is mostly set in just two locations, with two Korean families taking center stage-and took his career to new heights, winning the Palme d'Or with a unanimous vote, as well as history-making Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best International Feature Film. Parasite's jarring shifts in tone-encompassing darkness, drama, slapstick and black humor-and its unsubtle critiques of late capitalism and American imperialism are in conversation with Bong's entire body of work, and this mid-career monograph will survey the entirety of that work, including his short films, to flesh out the stories behind the films with supporting analytical text and interviews with Bong's key collaborators. The book also explores Bong's rise in the cultural eye of the West, catching up readers with his career before his next masterpiece arrives.
