Én és te
"Az emberek nagyon gyakran a megalkuvást hívják alkalmazkodásnak, mint ahogy a biztonságot hívják boldogságnak. Éppolyan önbecsapás mind a kettő."
Dr. Csernus Imre élő előadásai mindig népszerűek, ha azonban a párkapcsolatok adják a témát, kivétel nélkül zsúfolásig megtelik a terem. Miért okoz olyan gyakran problémát az, amire valamennyien vágyunk: hogy megtaláljuk és megőrizzük a szerelmet és a boldogságot? Ennek a kérdésnek ered a nyomába új könyvében a közismert pszichiáter.
A rövid választ már a könyv címe megadja. Nem véletlenül a "te és én" udvariassági sorrendje helyett Én és te, hiszen aki nem tudja elfogadni és szeretni önmagát, az mást sem képes igazán szeretni. A szerző ebből a tételből kiindulva halad végig a kapcsolatok mindannyiunk számára ismerős állomásain, a vonzalom ébredésétől az olyan gyakran bekövetkező szakításig, az első kamaszkori szárnypróbálgatásoktól a felnőttkori szerelmekig, a családalapítástól a gyerekek érkezésén át a válásig és az újrakezdésig, vagy adott esetben a kapcsolat sikeres megmentéséig.
Miért nem azonos a biztonság a boldogsággal? Miért olyan gyakori a társfüggőség? Hogyan öröklődnek a kapcsolati minták? Miért gond, ha egy párkapcsolatban két vámpír szívja egymás vérét? Miért nem érdemes tartanunk a kudarctól? Milyen intő jelek figyelmeztetnek arra, hogy hamarosan bekövetkezhet a szerelem halála? Miért nem jó ötlet együtt maradni a gyerekek miatt? Miért fontos meghúzni a határokat, betartani a megígért következményeket és vállalni a felelősséget a szavainkért és a tetteinkért? Miért fontos megtanulnunk, hogy az igazság félúton van? És szülőként miért kellene minderre időben megtanítani a gyerekeinket? Mire a könyv végére érünk, választ kapunk ezekre az életünket alapvetően meghatározó kérdésekre, és azt is megtanulhatjuk, hogyan tölthetjük fel nap mint nap a kapcsolatunk poharát.
Dr. Csernus Imre a munkája során mindig hangsúlyozza, ő csak javaslatokat tesz. Éppen ezért lesz az Én és te ha nem is kötelező, de ajánlott olvasmány mindenki számára, aki igazi szerelemre és hosszan tartó boldogságra vágyik.
"Ha szívvel-lélekkel állok az életemhez, akkor szívvel-lélekkel állok a másikhoz, a felnőttséghez, és a szexualitáshoz is. Ez a szívvel-lélekkel, mindent bele, felnőtt szemlélet az a mesterkulcs, amelyik minden zárat kinyit."

Reflections of War and Death (EN)
Anyone, as Freud tells us in Reflections on War and Death, forced to react against his own impulses may be described as a hypocrite, whether he is conscious of it or not. One might even venture to assert - it is still Freud's argument - that our contemporary civilisation favours this sort of hypocrisy and that there are more civilised hypocrites than truly cultured persons, and it is even a question whether a certain amount of hypocrisy is not indispensable to maintain civilisation.

I Fell in Love with Hope
Against the unforgiving landscape of a hospital, I fell in love with a mischievous, sun-eyed boy who became my only joy in that desolate place. That's what made it all the more soul-crushing when he committed suicide in front of me. Since then, I've sworn never to love anyone again.
With three exceptions: My friends, Sony, Neo, and Coeur, a little gang of rebellious, dying kids. Sony leads the charge with the air of freedom and only one lung to breathe it. Neo, a bad-tempered and wheel-chaired writer, keeps track of our great deeds from stealing to terrorizing our nurse.
Coeur is the beautiful boy, the muscle, the gentle giant with a failing heart. Before death inevitably knocks down our doors, my thieves and I have one last heist planned. A great escape that will take us far from abusive parents, crippling loss, and the realities of our diseases.
So what happens when someone else walks through the door? What happens when a girl joins our party and renders me speechless with her mischievous smile? What happens when she has suns in her eyes, and as terrified as I am to lose again, I start to fall? Trigger warnings found in foreword.

Lacná kniha Cider with Rosie (-70%)
At all times wonderfully evocative and poignant, Cider With Rosie is a charming memoir of Laurie Lee's childhood in a remote Cotswold village, a world that is tangibly real and yet reminiscent of a now distant past. In this idyllic pastoral setting,
unencumbered by the callous father who so quickly abandoned his family responsibilities, Laurie's adoring mother becomes the centre of his world as she struggles to raise a growing family against the backdrop of the Great War. The sophisticated adult
author's retrospective commentary on events is endearingly juxtaposed with that of the innocent, spotty youth, permanently prone to tears and self-absorption. Rosie's identity from the novel Cider with Rosie was kept secret for 25 years. She was Ros
e Buckland, Lee's cousin by marriage. "From the Paperback edition."
