Tři sestřenice. Dva kontinenty. Jedno strašlivé tajemství.
Píše se rok 2020 a třináctiletý Matthew je během covidové pandemie uvězněný doma, jeho táta trčí ve Francii a maminka přestěhuje chlapcovu stoletou prababičku k nim domů, aby ji ochránila před nemocí. V domácnosti proto platí dvojnásob přísná pravidla a Matthew se může ukousat nudou. Zoufalá situace se změní, když hrdina najde v prababiččiných věcech, které dostal za úkol uspořádat, fotografii dvou holčiček. Prababička se zpočátku odmítá o své dávné minulosti bavit. Matthew ví jen to, že se narodila na Ukrajině a uprchla odtamtud. Co všechno nechala za sebou a obětovala, však zjišťuje až nyní, když pročítá její deníky, dopisy i novinové články z dětství a mládí. Z nich vyvstává nejen příběh tří ukrajinských sestřenic během hladomoru na Ukrajině na počátku 30. let minulého století, který uměle vyvolal Stalin a jemuž za oběť padly miliony lidí, ale taky jedno velké tajemství.
Autorka bestselleru Kluk odnikud se ve svém novém románu inspirovala osudem své ukrajinské babičky.
Román byl nominován na prestižní americké výroční ocenění National Book Award.
„Dojemný obraz dlouho zamlčovaných historických událostí.“ (Kirkus Reviews)
„V této poutavé knize třináctiletý chlapec odkrývá temné rodinné tajemství… Podmanivý příběh vyprávěný v první osobě střídavě jednou ze tří postav – Matthewem, žijícím v roce 2020 v městečku Leonia ve státu New Jersey, a Helen a Milou, žijícími ve 30. letech minulého století v Brooklynu a Kyjevě – zachycuje utrpení, které přinesl hladomor uměle vyvolaný Stalinem. Román líčí, jak byla tato tragédie vnímána ve světě a jak její důsledky probublávají až do Matthewovy přítomnosti.“ “ (Publishers Weekly)
„Mnohovrstevnatý román inspirovaný osudem ukrajinské rodiny autorčiny babičky přináší strhující příběh o přežití.“ (The New York Times)

Bezstarostný Frank
PEKELNÍ ANDĚLÉ byli vytvořeni PEKELNÝMI ANDĚLY. Od počátku si vytvořili vlastní žebřík, který používají k cestě na vrchol. A nyní, když jsme na vrcholu, naše vlajky vlají ve větru. A takhle to i zůstane, protože smrt už je s námi. Co se týká demonstrantů za mír jako jsou Ken Kesey, Allen Ginsberg a ostatní, nevzhlížíme k nim. Pokud k někomu vzhlížíme, tak sami k sobě - nezáleží na tom, co se kde říká - takhle funguje mysl Pekelného anděla. Jak říkáme - jeden za všechny a všichni za jednoho. Budeme tu navěky a to víme. Nemusíme věřit - my víme. FRANK REYNOLDS se stal členem Pekelných andělů v roce 1961. Svoje rané dětství strávil v Ozarských horách a ve třinácti letech byl poslán do reformní školy ve státě Washington a poté ho jeho sestra přivedla do Kalifornie. Od té doby žil převážně v San Franciscu a jeho okolí. Hraje na harmoniku, maluje a píše poezii. MICHAEL McCLURE, „posluchač“ při sezeních s Frankem Reynoldsem je americký básník a dramatik, jehož hra The Beard (Plnovous) slavila úspěch v New Yorku. Mezi jeho knihy patří Hymns to St. Geryon, The New Book / A Book of Torture a Dark Brown.
Dross City: Urban Metabolism
This book is almost a manual of "refusal landscapes," within the Italian context framed through an international approach, inside the multiplicity of the dross spaces of refusal, to extend and clarify the concept of abandoned spaces, beyond Alan Berger's approach. Projects and research are used to engage and interpret the current and future city, in its geographical structure, infrastructures and forms of settlement, and towards a new urban metabolism. This book recycles strategies and multi-scalar design approaches, multiple design actions in different contextual life cycles--physical, social, economic--processes and programs, alternative scenarios and unpredictable paths of the Hyper-Cycle and Drosscapes.

The Rooster House
In the Ukrainian city of Poltava stands a building known as the Rooster House, an elegant mansion with two voluptuous red roosters flanking the door. It doesn't look horrifying. And yet, when Victoria was a girl growing up in the 1980s, her great-grandmother would take pains to avoid walking past it.
In 2014, while the Russian state was annexing Crimea, Victoria visited her grandmother in Bereh, the hamlet near Poltava that was a haven in her childhood. Just before the trip she came across her great-grandfather's diary, one page scored deep with the single line: 'Brother Nikodim, vanished in the 1930s fighting for a free Ukraine.' She had never heard of this uncle and no one - especially her grandmother - seemed willing to tell her about him.
Victoria became obsessed with recovering his story, and returned to her birth country again and again in pursuit of it. In the end, after years of sifting through Ukraine's post-Soviet bureaucracy, after travelling to tiny, ruined villages and speaking to the wizened survivors of that era, her winding search took her back to the place she had always known it would - to the Rooster House, and the dark truths contained in its basement.
Inspired by the author's love for her family, and peopled by warm, larger-than-life characters who jostle alongside the ghostly absences of others, The Rooster House is at once a riveting journey into the complex history of a wounded country and a profoundly moving tribute to hope and the refusal of despair.

Love A La Mode
Take two American teen chefs, add one heaping cup of Paris, toss in a pinch of romance, and stir. . . .
Rosie Radeke firmly believes that happiness can be found at the bottom of a mixing bowl. But she never expected that she, a random nobody from East Liberty, Ohio, would be accepted to celebrity chef Denis Laurent's school in Paris, the most prestigious cooking program for teens in the entire world. Life in Paris, however, isn't all cream puffs and crepes. Faced with a challenging curriculum and a nightmare professor, Rosie begins to doubt her dishes.
Henry Yi grew up in his dad's restaurant in Chicago, and his lifelong love affair with food landed him a coveted spot in Chef Laurent's school. He quickly connects with Rosie, but academic pressure from home and his jealousy over Rosie's growing friendship with gorgeous bad-boy baker Bodie Tal makes Henry lash out and push his dream girl away.
Desperate to prove themselves, Rosie and Henry cook like never before while sparks fly between them. But as they reach their breaking points, they wonder whether they have what it takes to become real chefs.
Perfect for lovers of Chopped Teen Tournament and Kids Baking Championship, as well as anyone who dreams of a romantic trip to France, Love a la Mode follows Rosie and Henry as they fall in love with food, with Paris, and ultimately, with each other.

Mondd, hogy megvársz
Hatéves korunk óta Devney Maxwell a legjobb barátom, és fogalma sincs arról, hogy szerelmes vagyok belé. Útban a profi baseballjátékosi karrier felé továbbra is ő maradt az otthonom – az egyetlen otthon, amelyet valaha is ismertem. De amikor visszatérek Sugarloafba, hogy gondoskodjam a családi farmról, azzal szembesülök, hogy épp a rossz férfival készül összekötni az életét... és elönt a kétségbeesés.
Elég egyetlen, tökéletes csók, hogy megváltozzon minden.
Hat hónapom van, hogy helyrehozzam a dolgokat Devney-vel – vagyis meggyőzzem, hogy hagyja itt ezt a várost, és azt az egy csókot örökkévalósággá változtassam.
Éppen erre törekszem, és azzal töltöm a napjaimat, hogy az unokaöccse baseballcsapatát eddzem, helyrepofozzam a farmot, és teljes szívemből szeressem őt. Végül már úgy néz ki, hogy a kapcsolatunk szilárd alapokon áll, és találni fogunk valami megoldást, hogy működni tudjon.
Aztán beüt a tragédia, ami örökre megváltoztatja az életét. Őrá nagyobb szükség van itt, mint eddig bármikor, számomra azonban szóba se jöhet, hogy maradjak.
Tudom, hogy nekem csakis ő kell, és ehhez képest lehet, hogy most el kell engednem.

Mistletoe and Kisses
When love is staring you straight in the face…
Lord Hugh Radley is handsome, clever, and not short of a penny. He is also at times more than a little vague, often lost in his own world.
For the past two years professor’s daughter Mary Gray has worked alongside him while he completed his studies at Cambridge University. She has brought him coffee and toast for supper most nights.
Somewhere along the way, she also secretly gave him her heart.
Christmas 1790 looms large with life changes for both of them. Hugh has completed his degree and has a bright future ahead of him.
For Mary, she faces a bleaker Christmas. It will be her first without her beloved father, and she will be alone.
A mislaid book sees Hugh returning to the university in time to discover the secret that Mary has been keeping from him. She has been evicted from her long-time home.
Hugh is outraged at the treatment Mary has received, but while he is busy being angry, his sister Adelaide steps in and invites Mary to spend Christmas with the Radley family at Strathmore Castle in Scotland.
In the wilds of chilly Scotland, Hugh finally faces up to the truth that he has long given over his heart to Mary. He makes the fateful decision to ask Mary for her hand in marriage.
Being Hugh however he is clueless about the minds of women and he makes a mess of things. With the clock ticking down to New Year’s Eve, he knows that if he doesn’t secure Mary’s love by then, he will lose her forever.
Cupid’s little helpers are meanwhile busy at work.
With the aid of the time-old tradition of kissing under the mistletoe, Hugh and Mary make tentative steps toward finding their happily ever after.
One kiss at a time.
Mistletoe and Kisses was previously published as part of the Winter Wishes Anthology.

Food History & Recipe Origins
From the Author of the Internationally Bestselling Books - Red Herrings & White Elephants, What Caesar did for My Salad, Shaggy Dogs, Pop Goes the Weasel, They Laughed at Galileo:Have you ever wondered where your Margherita, Melba, Suzette or Eggs Benedict come from? This is the fantastic history and origins of your favourite foods and recipe names.Food is just as entitled to a proper history as castles, wars, kings, queens, art, literature and the bubonic plague. But the book world is now so saturated by celebrity chefs trying to show the working man how to rub garlic on a ciabatta or break lime leaves over a piece of raw fish that we’ve lost sight of the really interesting stories behind the recipes we all know and love. And, whilst I don’t ride around London on a scooter with my mates or swear at incompetent sous chefs for a living, nor do I know one end of a pork loin from its elbow, I do love history and I do love food. And the history behind our favourite dishes is fascinating, surprising and overlooked – from the Buddha’s obsession with porridge to the dying playwright Moliere dosing himself with Parmesan rather than medicine (it didn’t work) and so I wanted to find out more. But rather than just retelling the tales of how civilizations developed cooking techniques millennia ago, I wanted to know the stories about the people behind the food we eat every day. For example, who was Marguerita, and why was the world’s most famous pizza named after her? And while everybody loves crepes Suzette but do they know that Suzette was the mistress of an earlier hard-living Prince of Wales and how the dish was named after her? And what about the notorious Earl of Sandwich and how he came up with our favourite snack to avoid losing at cards? We’ve all enjoyed Peach Melba at some point, or spread some butter on a piece of Melba Toast, so wouldn’t it be a great idea to tell the story of the megalomaniac singer, Dame Nellie Melba, for whom these dishes were created. And once I’d started my research, the discoveries started flooding in. Why do we call our favourite Greek lamb dish after a bunch of thieving nomads (Kleftiko)? Who were the Tartar warriors and why do we name raw steak after them? Or what about all those cakes and buns, Eccles, Bakewell, Lamington, Battenberg, Garibaldi and the Anzacs. There are the salads in the shape of Caesar and Cobb and the fish and soups have plenty of history of their own. And don’t forget the sauces such as Béarnaise, Mayonnaise, the one from the House of Parliament and that one from the Thousand Islands? There are all in here, and many more. Pavlova, for example. We may all know about the Russian ballerina and do we know about the century old argument between the Australians and New Zealanders over who invented it. Well, that particular question is answered here.So, dear reader, a cook book this is not. But while the chefs of the world will learn little about recipes here, they might enjoy the stories of how their everyday tools of the trade, salt and pepper, once transformed the world and how some of the other great events in history put whatever it is you are having for dinner tonight upon your plates.There wasn’t room for every dish I wanted to cover in this edition – but you never know there might always be a second sitting…
