The Lost Stradivarius
The Lost Stradivarius (1895), by J. Meade Falkner, is a short novel of ghosts and the evil that can be invested in an object, in this case an extremely fine Stradivarius violin. After finding the violin of the title in a hidden compartment in his college rooms, the protagonist, a wealthy young heir, becomes increasingly secretive as well as obsessed by a particular piece of music, which seems to have the power to call up the ghost of its previous owner. Roaming from England to Italy, the story involves family love, lordly depravity, and the tragedy of obsession, all conveyed in a "high" serious tone not uncommon in late Victorian literature. Preceding M.R. James's ghost stories by several years, it has been called the novel James might have written, had he written novels.

A deluxe bind-up edition of Naoki Urasawa's award-winning epic of doomsday cults, giant robots and a group of friends trying to save the world from destruction!
Humanity, having faced extinction at the end of the 20th century, would not have entered the new millennium if it weren't for them. In 1969, during their youth, they created a symbol.

It turns out that the Friend's plan to destroy the world was dreamed up long ago by a group of boys playing "good guys against bad guys." And now, the only one who can stop this diabolical plot from succeeding is the one who came up with it-Kenji!
Nine Quarters of Jerusalem : A New Biography of the Old City
'Original and illuminating ... What a good book this is' Jonathan Dimbleby, author and documentary maker
In Jerusalem, what you see and what is true are two different things. Maps divide the walled Old City into four quarters, yet that division doesn't reflect the reality of mixed and diverse neighbourhoods. Beyond the crush and frenzy of its major religious sites, much of the Old City remains little known to visitors, its people overlooked and their stories untold. Nine Quarters of Jerusalem lets the communities of the Old City speak for themselves. Ranging through ancient past and political present, it evokes the city's depth and cultural diversity.
Matthew Teller's highly original 'biography' features the Old City's Palestinian and Jewish communities, but also spotlights its Indian and African populations, its Greek and Armenian and Syriac cultures, its downtrodden Dom Gypsy families and its Sufi mystics. It discusses the sources of Jerusalem's holiness and the ideas - often startlingly secular - that have shaped lives within its walls. It is an evocation of place through story, led by the voices of Jerusalemites.

Rolling Stones, The - On Air CD
Kultovní rocková kapela v čele s neopomenutelným Mickem Jaggerem Rolling Stones vydává kolekci rádiových nahrávek On Air, která posluchače přenese do unikátní éry, kdy kapela hrála hudbu, kterou milovala ze všeho nejvíc – blues, R&B, soul a dokonce i country. Skladby pochází z nejsyrovějších let, kdy byla zpečetěna jejich domácí nadvláda a prestižní pozice na světové hudební scéně s titulem nejlepší rock’n’rollové kapely už klepala na dveře zkušebny. On Air je jedním z nejvášnivějších a nejintenzivnějších materiálů, který kdy „Stouni“ vydali.
Deska se skládá ze 32 zřídka slyšených rádiových nahrávek. Osm z nich kapela nikdy nehrála na živo, ani je nikdy komerčně nevydala, a dalších sedm zaznělo v rádiovém éteru ještě před tím, než vyšly na některé z desek či EP. Vlajkovou písní je debutový singl a zároveň první skladba, která za kapelu zazněla v ikonickém Saturday Clubu Come On. On Air dále obsahuje známé do R&B laděné skladby Roll Over Beethoven nebo Memphis, Tennessee, bluesové začátky ztělesněné například ve Fannie Mae nebo Cops And Robbers a v neposlední řadě i syrovou a živelnou tvorbu z dílny Jagger/Richards, jako je (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction, The Last Time nebo The Spider And The Fly.
On Air je rovněž důležitým historickým artefaktem blízkého vztahu Rolling Stones a nahrávacích sessions BBC, který je ilustrován vysokou frekvencí, se kterou navštěvovali jejich studia v 60. letech. Nahrávky zachycené na desce jsou na pomezí precizní studiové tvorby a energických živých vystoupeních. On Air je dílem kapely v sestavě Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Brian Jones a Bill Wyman.
