U.D.O. - Touchdown CD
U.D.O. je nemecká heavymetalová skupina založená hlavným spevákom Udom Dirkschneiderom v roku 1987. Po odchode Uda Dirkschneidera z Accept v roku 1987 založil vlastnú kapelu s názvom U.D.O. Prijal gitaristov Mathiasa Dietha a Petra Szigetiho, basgitaristu Franka Rittela a bubeníka Thomasa Frankeho. Svoj debutový album s názvom Animal House vydali 3. novembra 1987, ktorý celý napísal Accept. Zo skupiny odišli Rubach, Rittel a Franke a pridali sa gitarista Andy Susemihl, basgitarista Thomas Smuzyszki a bubeník Stefan Schwarzmann. Nasledujúci album Mean Machine bol vydaný 10. januára 1989. Je jedným z typických predstaviteľov medzinárodného heavy metalu par excellence: Udo Dirkschneider svojím charakterným hlasom formuje legendárne rockové hymny už od 80. rokov. Približne päť desaťročí na svetových pódiách z neho robí ikonu. Napriek dlhej histórii a mnohým vzostupom a pádom, ktoré rockový život so sebou prináša, Udo Dirkschneider neustále úžasne prepisuje svoj príbeh. Tento rok nie je výnimkou.

The Gospel according to me
I've always been looking for Sense. It seems to be God. Despite people trying to write their opinions into the Bible, He managed to make sure that in His book there were such thoughts and indications for us that He wanted.

We, Hominids
The Dutch bestseller
Nominated for Le Prix Nicolas Bouvier
WHO ARE WE? WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT FROM ANIMALS? WHAT MAKES US HUMAN?
In this charming, thought-provoking book, one of Holland's greatest non-fiction writers hunts down answers to humanity's most fundamental questions: Who are we? What makes us different from animals? With an ancient skull as his starting point, he travels the globe, tracing the search for the first human being: the missing link between humans and apes.
Westerman introduces us to the world of skull hunters – leading experts in our fossil ancestry – whose lives are just as fascinating as those of their primeval discoveries. He astutely reconsiders the work of illustrious paleoanthropologists in the light of new DNA technology, postcolonialism, and the rise of women in this male-dominated field. Westerman discovers a plethora of origin hypotheses and shows how any theory of who we are and where we come from is coloured by the zeitgeist.
We, Hominids is a compelling mixture of reportage, travelogue and essay – reminiscent of Bruce Chatwin or Ryszard Kapuscinski – written by a brilliant storyteller and thinker.
Lacná kniha Stretnú sa kresťan, moslim a žid (-70%)
Čo spája a čo rozdeľuje tri monoteistické náboženstvá na Slovensku? Pri spoločnom stole sa stretli rabín Miša Kapustin, evanjelický farár Ondrej Prostredník a riaditeľ Islamskej nadácie na Slovensku Mohamad Hasna, aby predebatovali každodenné situácie a témy, ktoré každý z nich prežíva podobne a predsa po svojom. Stretnutia inicioval Mário Nicolini z Fóra náboženstiev a zorganizoval ich v podobe debát pre školy aj verejnosť. Rozhovory v tejto knihe vychádzajú z najzaujímavejších momentov a tém tohto originálneho projektu. Kapitoly kopírujú tematické celky ako: O ateistoch a agnostikoch, O Bohu, O rozpore kresťanstva s vedou, O homosexualite, O spravodlivej spoločnosti, O dialógu a ďalšie.
Z predslovu Tomáša Halíka: "Nebezpečí fundamentalismu a fanatismu nejsou uchráněna žádná náboženství, ani ateismus, záleží nikoliv na názorových systémech, nýbrž na duchovní hloubce a morální kvalitě lidí. Kniha rozhovorů farářů, rabína a imáma představuje v našich podmínkách dnes významný krok na cestě, na níž je nutné pokračovat."

Statečný boj s rakovinou a touhou všechno vzdát
Vaše matka zemřela na Alzheimerovu demenci v domě s pečovatelskou službou. V posledních týdnech vás už nepoznávala a byla mimo tento svět. Na její pohled trýzněného zvířete, když jí ošetřovatelky měnily plenu, nikdy nezapomenete. Také váš otec dožil v pečovatelském domě. Umíral sám, dávno jste se odcizili. S bratrem jste si nerozuměli ani jako děti. Na obřad uložení popela přinesl matčinu urnu v igelitce s reklamou módní značky. Se sestrou jste se snažili o pohřební rituály, ale výsledkem byly jen trapné rozpaky. Ulevilo se vám, když jste to měli za sebou. A pak vám řekli, že máte rakovinu, melanom v posledním stadiu, a jistojistě zemřete. Co uděláte? Australská spisovatelka Cory Taylorová odložila nedopsaný román a během pár týdnů před smrtí napsala tuto knihu. Bez patosu a sentimentu, dokonce s humorem popisuje rozporuplné pocity z umírání a smrti, bilancuje život s japonským manželem, uvažuje o vlastní identitě a vzpomíná na své rodiče. Její upřímná zpověď se netýká žádných výjimečných věcí – to, co v životě prožívala ona, prožíváme nebo jednou budeme alespoň zčásti prožívat všichni.

Depeche Mode
In November 2020, Depeche Mode were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Dave Gahan, accepting the honour, said: "I'd like to thank Anton Corbijn who thank God came in at the right time and actually made us look cool." Also in the fall of 2020, TASCHEN released the limited edition Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn (81-18) signed by Depeche Mode and Anton Corbijn, and it became one of the fastest selling collector's editions in the publishing company's history. This pocket-sized and wallet-friendly edition is a testament to Corbijn's unique vision, and indeed "cool" as Gahan acknowledged so movingly in his speech; an illustrated history of how Corbijn, who became in 1986 the band's de facto creative director, and helped cement Depeche Mode's reputation as the biggest cult band in the world.Featuring over 150 photographs from Corbijn's extensive archives, including formal and informal portraits from places such as Madrid, Hamburg, the California desert, Prague and Marrakech; a multitude of off-the-cuff, candid images; and stunning live shots from all their tours since 1988 right up to 2023. Created with the full collaboration of the band, who share some insights on working with Corbijn, Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn trumpets how one man's original aesthetic, that has encompassed all of their photography, most of their music videos, album graphics and set designs, helped shape the band's enduring popularity. Reflecting on his role in Depeche Mode, Corbijn recalls in the book's introduction: "A lot of it came down to me, and I wanted it to be right for them. I wanted to think for them. To be great for them." This book is a tribute to the depth and breadth of that greatness, a celebration of one of the most creative and enduring collaborations in rock history.
The Stars' Share / La part des etoiles
Sir Paul Smith, with a wry grin in front of a bookshelf. Javier Bardem, utterly relaxed, in sneakers in a sunny field. Rasmus Kofoed, chef at Geranium in Copenhagen, one of the best restaurants in the world, atop an ivy-covered wall. What all these portraits have in common - along with a sense of closeness and privacy - is a glass. For this is how Gerard-Philippe Mabillard photographs his friends and acquaintances, all celebrities from the world of film, art, fashion, design, and culture.
Mabillard himself worked as a creative professional before taking the position of director of the Vin du Valais non-profit association. For him, the glass, filled with wine or water, is the link between the people he portrays: a symbol of friendship and community. Through his photography project, Mabillard is supporting the NGO Fondation Moi pour Toit in Colombia.
