The Biggest Number in the World
From cells in our bodies to measuring the universe, big numbers are everywhere
We all know that numbers go on forever, that you could spend your life counting and never reach the end of the line, so there can't be such a thing as a 'biggest number'. Or can there?
To find out, David Darling and Agnijo Banerjee embark on an epic quest, revealing the answers to questions like: are there more grains of sand on Earth or stars in the universe? Is there enough paper on Earth to write out the digits of a googolplex? And what is a googolplex?
Then things get serious.
Enter the strange realm between the finite and the infinite, and float through a universe where the rules we cling to no longer apply. Encounter the highest number computable and infinite kinds of infinity. At every turn, a cast of wild and wonderful characters threatens the status quo with their ideas, and each time the numbers get larger.

Lacná kniha Kingdom of the Blind (-90%)
The entrancing new crime thriller featuring Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, from number one New York Times bestselling author Louise Penny
When Armand Gamache receives a letter inviting him to an abandoned farmhouse outside of Three Pines, the former head of the Surete du Quebec discovers that a complete stranger has named him as executor of her will. Armand never knew the elderly woman, and the bequests are so wildly unlikely that he suspects she must have been delusional - until a body is found, and the terms of the bizarre document suddenly seem far more menacing.
Armand sets about investigating, but meanwhile he is taking increasingly desperate measures to rectify the recent events that led to his suspension. As he does, he begins to see his own blind spots - and the terrible things hiding there . . .

Len trochu v poriadku
Debutová zbierka poviedok Jany Varcholovej Len trochu v poriadku ukazuje komunitný život prevažne mladšej strednej generácie, ktorá sa tlačí na kope, a predsa sa cíti osamelo.
Postavy v nej sa pozorujú, porovnávajú, scvrkávajú, vyvreskujú po sebe, občas požívajú
nadmerné množstvá alkoholu či jedla na vyrovnanie sa so stiesňujúcim životom veľkomesta
alebo vlastnými, nie vždy úplne štandardnými vzťahmi.
Autorka na ich zobrazenie využíva realistickú optiku, miestami drsnú a sarkastickú, ironicky
odstupovú, so špecifickým nenásilným humorom. Ďalšou polohou je nenápadný prerod textu vychádzajúceho z realisticky pôsobiacej situácie do absurdity, často až kamsi k surreálnu, kde byť čudný je tou najnormálnejšou vecou na svete.

The Wind-up Bird Chronicle
Toru Okada's cat has disappeared and this has unsettled his wife, who is herself growing more distant every day. Then there are the increasingly explicit telephone calls he has started receiving. As this compelling story unfolds, the tidy suburban realities of Okada's vague and blameless life, spent cooking, reading, listening to jazz and opera and drinking beer at the kitchen table, are turned inside out, and he embarks on a bizarre journey, guided (however obscurely) by a succession of characters, each with a tale to tell.
The Orphanage
A devastating story of the struggle of civilians caught up in the conflict in eastern Ukraine
Chosen as one of "Six Books to Read for Context on Ukraine" by the New York Times
Selected by Publishers Weekly as one of the "20 Best Books of 2021"
"Powerful . . . For those who want a glimpse of what life will be like in Ukraine for years to come, The Orphanage offers a frightening glimpse."-Bill Marx, Arts Fuse
If every war needs its master chronicler, Ukraine has Serhiy Zhadan, one of Europe's most promising novelists. Recalling the brutal landscape of The Road and the wartime storytelling of A Farewell to Arms, The Orphanage is a searing novel that excavates the human collateral damage wrought by the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine. When hostile soldiers invade a neighboring city, Pasha, a thirty-five-year-old Ukrainian language teacher, sets out for the orphanage where his nephew Sasha lives, now in occupied territory. Venturing into combat zones, traversing shifting borders, and forging uneasy alliances along the way, Pasha realizes where his true loyalties lie in an increasingly desperate fight to rescue Sasha and bring him home.
Written with a raw intensity, this is a deeply personal account of violence that will be remembered as the definitive novel of the war in Ukraine.
More. Love. Čajky
More šumí. Love sa presýpajú. Čajky zobú z ruky. O tom, že kúzlo exotiky, dobrodružstvo či napätie môžu mať mnohé rozmery, nás aj vo svojej novej knihe presviedča Agda Bavi Pain.
Zbierka poviedok More. Love. Čajky je čítanie rovnako vzrušujúce ako ľudová rozprávka či starobylá mytológia neznámej krajiny, kde sa rozprávalo jednou babylončinou a slnko nikdy nezapadalo. Nechajte sa prekvapiť, s akou ľahkosťou sa ponoríte do príbehov a užijete si jazdy východným pobrežím, temným podsvetím, potýčky s políciou aj politikou, masové koncerty a demonštrácie, no predovšetkým mágiu a čaro východných umení. Bájne svety ožívajú nanovo a povstávajú spod nánosov času ako stratený raj bájnej Atlantídy.
Agda Bavi Pain (1969) je turecký spisovateľ a umelec slovenského pôvodu. Narodil sa v Československej socialistickej republike a vyrastal v starej košickej rodine, patriacej medzi triednych nepriateľov režimu. Jeho otec bol ako seržant ŠtB začiatkom 50. rokov odsúdený za protištátnu činnosť na desaťročné väzenie. Agda Bavi Pain sa do konfliktu so zákonom dostal ešte pred ukončením základnej školy. Jeho román Koniec sveta získal Veľkú cenu za východoeurópsku literatúru 2008 a podľa jeho predlohy bol v kinách uvedený film Babie leto. Debutoval dnes už kultovou knihou satanských básní Kosť & Koža. Sci-fi epos Rytier bez básne a Hany dosiahol v hodnotení domácej poézie za rok 2011 jednu z najvyšších priečok. Nová zbierka revolučných manifestov a zákonov poetiky má názov Euröpain.
The Beginning After the End, Vol. 2 (comic)
Reincarnated king-turned-kid Arthur Leywin and his travel companions have been ambushed by bandits, and Art only has one thing on his mind: protect his family. But he soon realizes his strong mana core alone might not be enough to get everyone out of danger—even with the knowledge and experience from his old life, this new world is a formidable place. And when mythical creatures and slave traders are thrown into the mix, Art’s going to have to pull out all the stops if he wants to stand his ground!

The Other Side of the Coin : The Queen, the Dresser and the Wardrobe
When Angela Kelly and The Queen are together, laughter echoes through the corridors of Buckingham Palace.
Angela has worked with The Queen and walked the corridors of the Royal Household for twenty-five years, initially as Her Majesty's Senior Dresser and then latterly as Her Majesty's Personal Advisor, Curator, Wardrobe and In-house Designer. As the first person in history to hold this title, she shares a uniquely close working relationship with The Queen.
In The Other Side of the Coin, The Queen has personally given Angela her blessing to share their extraordinary bond with the world. Whether it's preparing for a formal occasion or brightening Her Majesty's day with a playful joke, Angela's priority is to serve and support. Sharing never-before-seen photographs - many from Angela's own private collection - and charming anecdotes of their time spent together, this revealing book provides memorable insights into what it's like to work closely with The Queen, to curate her wardrobe and to discover a true and lasting connection along the way.
'The book documents the unique working relationship between Her Majesty The Queen and the woman who has been her Personal Assistant and Senior Dresser for more than two decades: Angela Kelly. It gives a rare insight into the demands of the job of supporting the Monarch, and we gain privileged insight into a successful working relationship, characterised by humour, creativity, hard work, and a mutual commitment to service and duty. Angela is a talented and inspiring woman, who has captured the highlights of her long career with The Queen for us all to share.' - Samantha Cohen, Assistant Private Secretary to The Queen (2011-2018)

Lacná kniha The Little Book of Vargas (-90%)
Alberto Vargas took over Esquire magazine's monthly pin-up post in late 1940. By 1942, when the U.S. joined the war, he had more than a million ardent fans who carried his pin-ups in backpacks and duffel bags as reminders of the American girls they'd left behind. When Esquire was charged with obscenity over a particularly spicy pin-up the military stepped in the fight for The Varga Girl, declaring her necessary for morale. Today these wartime pin-ups are the most collectible of Vargas' work, and we 've collected them all in this compact, affordable 192-page volume.

Práva detí očami detí
Pre každého má dobro inú farbu a do duše druhého ako tak dokáže iný nazrieť iba natoľko hlboko, nakoľko mu to druhý dovolí. Keď svet začne sústredene počúvať a premýšľať nad tým, čo deti vyjadrili verbálne i neverbálne, až potom sa začnú diať skutočné zmeny k lepšiemu. Dajme deťom šancu a spoznajme svoj svet očami detí.
Kniha je určená dospelým, ktorí z rôznych dôvodov zasahujú do života detí, aby pochopili, že svet detí sa neriadi pocitmi a potrebami dospelých. Ale môžu ju čítať aj deti, aby sa inšpirovali a pochopili, že aj oni, nielen dospelí, majú právo na život podľa svojich predstáv.
Poviedky sa zrodili zo súťaže Práva detí očami detí, nad ktorou prevzal záštitu Andrej Kiska prezident Slovenskej republiky
