Cleopatra and Frankenstein
New York is slipping from Cleo's grasp. Sure, she's at a different party every other night, but she barely knows anyone. Her student visa is running out, and she doesn't even have money for cigarettes. But then she meets Frank. Twenty years older, Frank's life is full of all the success and excess that Cleo's lacks. He offers her the chance to be happy, the freedom to paint, and the opportunity to apply for a green card. She offers him a life imbued with beauty and art-and, hopefully, a reason to cut back on his drinking. He is everything she needs right now.
Cleo and Frank run head-first into a romance that neither of them can quite keep up with. It reshapes their lives and the lives of those around them, whether that's Cleo's best friend struggling to embrace his gender identity in the wake of her marriage, or Frank's financially dependent sister arranging sugar daddy dates after being cut off. Ultimately, this chance meeting between two strangers outside of a New Year's Eve party changes everything, for better or worse.
Cleopatra and Frankenstein is an astounding and painfully relatable debut novel about the spontaneous decisions that shape our entire lives and those imperfect relationships born of unexpectedly perfect evenings.

Révész Sándor mesél. A kölyökkorától kezdve mai, lecsendesedett életéig elmesél mindent, amit fontosnak gondol, és ez a hosszú, sikerekben gazdag történet teli van lélekkel, érzelmekkel - amilyen a zenéje, az éneke és minden előadóművészi megszólalása.
Mesél a nagyszüleiről és szüleiről, korán elvesztett édesanyjának tragédiájáról... A hatvanas évek légköréről, a beatkorszakról, amely beszippantotta, Radics Béláról, aki a bálványa volt... és az első zenekarairól.Mesél a Generálról és a Piramisról - arról is, ami fájdalmas volt benne: hogy milyen volt a szakítás a zenésztársakkal, Som Lajossal.
Mesél a hermetikus filozófiáról és Szepes Máriáról, akitől oly sokat tanult. Mesél dalokról, nagy koncertekről, nőkről, akiket szeretett, barátokról, akiket testvéreinek érzett, a tanyájáról, ahol nagyokat sétált a természetben, és az állatokról, melyeket gondozott.
Az immár hetvenéves "Kölyök" történetei ezek. Jó hallgatni őt.
"Az élet által nekem felkínált új ütem nagy ajándék. Reggelenként, mikor megborotválkozom, belemosolygok a tükörbe, pedig a tükörkép alapján semmi okom nem lenne erre, hiszen őszül a hajam, változott a küllemem, de összhangban vagyok önmagammal, minden napom jól indul. Szepes Mária nénitől azt tanultam: "Örülj, minden okod megvan az örömre."

Lacná kniha Martin Gerboc - Une Saison en Enfer (-70%)
Monografická publikace, představující výběr z více jak dvacetiletého malířského díla Martina Gerboce (1971), odkazuje ve svém názvu ke knize Arthura Rimbauda Une saison en enfer a podobně jako v poezii prokletého básníka kontrastuje krása a ošklivost, v Gerbocově díle stojí děs po boku rozkoši. Právě hranice, kde se obě charakteristiky stýkají, je pro Gerboce místem, kde setrvává, je jím fascinován a zkoumá je coby nebezpečnou zónu samoty a strachu. Výrazovým prostředkem je mu punková estetika ošklivosti nebo ještě lépe estetika terorismu, která svou otevřeností vyvolává nejdříve odpor a nevoli, je však ve své záhadnosti přitažlivá. Téměř monochromní barevnost odkazuje na barvy těla, jeho vnějšek i vnitřek, krev, kůži, sliznice, oheň i hnilobu. Tematicky se Gerboc obrací k berlínskému kabaretu dvacátých a třicátých let minulého století - tavícímu kotlíku dekadentních kulturních tradic střední Evropy, dále k pornografii a sexualitě versus erotizujícím náboženským motivům či obrazům Francisca Goyi. Umělcova tvorba je často odrazem několika souběžně probíhajících dějů. Divák v tomto osobním střetu čelí svému vlastnímu podvědomí, skrytým touhám a zakázaným rozkoším. Kniha vychází v dvoujazyčném anglicko-českém vydání.
