Christine And The Queens - Paranoia, Angels, True Love (Expanded Edition) 3CD
Héloise Adélaide Letissier profesionálne známy ako „Christine and the Queens“ a „Redcar“, alebo jednoducho „Chris“, je francúzsky spevák a skladateľ. Narodil sa a vyrastal v Nantes, ako štvorročný sa začal učiť hru na klavíri a počas štúdia našiel inšpiráciu v jednom z londýnskych klubov. Jeho debutový štúdiový album „Chaleur humaine“ (2014) získal uznanie kritiky, dostal sa na 2. miesto vo francúzskom aj britskom rebríčku a vo Francúzsku bol certifikovaný ako diamantový; bola to tiež najpredávanejšia debutová nahrávka v Spojenom kráľovstve. V roku 2018 vydal svoj druhý štúdiový album „Chris“, ktorý si získal ďalšie uznanie u kritikov. Clash, The Guardian a The Independent ho označili za album roka a umiestnili sa v prvej desiatke z deviatich ďalších koncoročných zoznamov. Skladbu „Girlfriend“ ocenil časopis Time ako pieseň roka. V reakcii na smrť svojej matky vydal Letissier v roku 2020 EP“La vita nuova“, pričom niektorí kritici ho označili za jeho doteraz najsilnejšie dielo. „PARANOIA, ANGELS, TRUE LOVE“ je napísaný, nahraný a produkovaný Christine and the Queens, s koprodukciou Mikea Deana (Lana Del Rey, Beyonce) s hosťami ako 070 Shake a Madonna.

Martin a Vrútky, mestá, v ktorých sa toľkokrát rozhodovalo o osude slovenského národa, by sme mohli nazvať aj našimi posvätnými. O to viac je vhodný aj názov tejto knihy, ktorá nám významné miesta nášho národa predstaví z neba.
House of Earth and Blood
UNLEASHED BY DESTINY. Bryce Quinlan loves her life. Every night is a party, and Bryce is going to savour all the pleasures Lunathion - also known as Crescent City - has to offer.
But when a brutal murder shakes the very foundations of the city, Bryce's world comes crashing down. Two years later, Bryce still haunts the city's most notorious nightclubs - but seeking only oblivion now. Then the murderer attacks again.
And when an infamous Fallen angel, Hunt Athalar, is assigned to watch her every footstep, Bryce knows she can't forget any longer. As Bryce and Hunt fight to unravel the mystery and their own dark pasts, the threads they tug ripple through the underbelly of the city, across warring continents and down to the deepest levels of Hel, where things that have been sleeping for millennia are beginning to stir ... Perfect for fans of Jessica Jones and True Blood, this is a blockbuster modern fantasy set in a divided world where one woman must uncover the truth to seek her revenge.
With unforgettable characters and page-turning suspense, this richly inventive new fantasy series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas delves into the heartache of loss, the price of freedom - and the power of love.
Daisy Jones and The Six
THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Daily Mirror best fiction pick of 2019A Daily Express best book of 2019'I LOVE it . . .
I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON
They were the new icons of rock and roll, fated to burn bright and not fade away. But on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down. There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom.
There was Camila, the frontman's wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode - and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy. There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn't ready for her. And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour.
They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames. It's never just about the music...

Daisy Jones is an instant icon.' ERIN KELLY'DAISY JONES & THE SIX is a transporting novel - at once a love story, a glimpse into the combustible inner workings of a rock-and-roll band, and a pitch-perfect recreation of the music scene of the Fleetwood Mac era. You'll never want it to end.' CECILIA AHERN'Once in a blue moon you get to discover a book you end up pressing upon many other people to read.

You bet, but it's Daisy's refusal to become a mere muse that powers this buzzy music-industry romance.' HEPHZIBAH ANDERSON, MAIL ON SUNDAY'The characters leap off the page, seducing you with their dramas, and making you wish the band was real.' HEAT'The heady haze of the 70s music scene, and a perfectly flawed Daisy, combine to create a fresh, rock n roll read. I loved it.' ALI LAND, author of Good Me Bad Me
The Complete Mapp and Lucia, Volume 2 (EN)
Sharply observant and wickedly funny, E. F. Benson’s six ‘Mapp and Lucia’ novels satirise the upper-middle-class social climbers in 1920s and ’30s rural England. Games of bridge and cups of tea fuel hilarious gossip and vindictive plots a-plenty. It is a masterfully sustained spotlight on the minutiae of village life – a clever and ultimately heart-warming series that seems tailor-made for audio.

The Silmarillion Illustrated Deluxe Edition
For the first time ever, a beautiful slipcased edition of the forerunner to The Lord of the Rings, illustrated throughout in colour by J.R.R. Tolkien himself, with the complete text printed in two colours and with many bonus features unique to this edition. The Silmarilli were three perfect jewels, fashioned by Feanor, most gifted of the Elves, and within them was imprisoned the last Light of the Two Trees of Valinor.
But the first Dark Lord, Morgoth, stole the jewels and set them within his iron crown, guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. The Silmarillion is the history of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all the heroism, against the great Enemy. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part.
The book also includes several shorter works: the Ainulindale, a myth of the Creation, and the Valaquenta, in which the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Numenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings. This deluxe slipcased edition contains the complete text, which is printed in two colours and features, for the very first time, more than 50 colour paintings, illustrations and designs drawn by J.R.R.
Tolkien himself as he composed this epic work. Unique to this edition are two poster-size, fold-out maps revealing all the detail of Beleriand as the tales grew, an illustrated booklet featuring 'A Brief Account of The Silmarillion and its Making' by Christopher Tolkien, and a printed art card reproducing 'Taniquetil'. It is additionally quarterbound in blue leather, with raised ribs on the spine, stamped in three foils on black cloth boards, and housed in a custom-built clothbound slipcase.
The pages are edged in silver and include a ribbon marker.

Daisy Jones and The Six
From the author of CARRIE SOTO IS BACK, THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO and the bestselling MALIBU RISING
Everybody knows Daisy Jones and the Six.
From the moment Daisy walked barefoot on to the stage at the Whisky, she and the band were a sensation.
Their sound defined an era. Their albums were on every turntable. They played sold-out arenas from coast to coast.
Then, on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down.
They were lovers, friends, brothers. But they were also rivals.
This is the story of their legendary rise and irrevocable fall. A story of ambition, desire, heartbreak and music.
Everyone was there. Everyone remembers it differently. Nobody knew why they split. Until now...

White Stripes - Complete John Peel Sessions CD
The White Stripes bola americká rocková dvojica založená v roku 1997 v meste Detroit. Jej členmi boli Jack White a Meg White. Potom, ako vydali niekoľko albumov a singlov sa v roku 2002 dostali do väčšieho povedomia verejnosti ako súčasť garage rock revival scény.
Vôbec prvé oficiálne vydanie The White Stripes Peel Sessions. Zachytenie Jacka a Meg na priepasti medzinárodného renomé v rozruchu „White Blood Cells“, ich dve živé relácie so známym DJ-om BBC Johnom Peelom sú pravdepodobne najlepším dokumentom White Stripes tej doby. Keďže boli tieto nahrávky od prvého vysielania v roku 2001 značne pašované, tešia sa ich prvému autorizovanému vydaniu na oslavu ich 15. výročia.

A Violent Spring & Other Poems
About the Book: In an irate world full of confusions and its miasma, the spring finally comes. It has to. But Nature responds not in the way it should. The screams of the world and the dilapidation of the human spirit mar with the first buds that sprout. There are "muffled cries" here and there. As if an unnecessary foliage spoils the flowers of life as weeds do. Thus, the fulcrum of perfectibility is burnt to ashes. This time, the spring is not amiable but "violent." A Violent Spring & Other Poems captures this silent malady inherent in existence, in whatever we do. Gaps continue to sprout in the way history is narrated; lovers, perfectly content with themselves ultimately find this tranquility illusory, a sub-tropical storm shows that nothing will be the same again, no matter what we do. If the limiting factor is human nature and the uncertain world wherein we eke out a routine, then springs will continue to be violent, regeneration will be short-lived and Banquo will eternally return, failing not this feast of life and death. Arnab Chatterjee's poems weave the most delicate of images, to bring out the complex interplay that is always on between time and words. Words, flowing on ceaselessly, to paint in verse the passing of time, through seasonal motions of the vernal to the stormy to the autumnal, and yet the words themselves being all too self-conscious about the possible inadequacy in doing the same efficaciously, mark the fundamental quest that Arnab takes his readers on. Prof. Saugata Bhaduri School of Language, Literature and Culture Studies Jawaharlal Nehru University New Delhi About the Author: Arnab Chatterjee is the author of over 7 books of poetry and a book of drama. His poetry, as it has been pointed out, is marked by a freshness of voice, multi-layered imagery and "a broad philosophical outlook." His book on the re-telling of the saga of the Mahabharata from the point of view of select minor episodes and characters will be published soon. He likes travelling, reading, teaching, exploring and is active on social media, maintaining his own Facebook book blog "PDF", or "Poetry, Drama, Fiction."

Endre Nemes, Obrazové básne / Visual Poems
Po výstavách a publikáciách Stana Filka a Milana Paštéku pripravila Galéria Nedbalka prezentáciu ďalšej mimoriadnej osobnosti slovenského výtvarného umenia – Endre Nemesa (1909 – 1985). Bol jedným z prvých, ktorý otočil zrak od vonkajšej reality k vnútornému, často sebatrýznivému skúmaniu. V jeho obrazoch sa postupne ozývajú odkazy na expresionizmus, kubizmus a surrealizmus, vo svojej neskoršej tvorbe sa vyjadruje prostredníctvom nefiguratívnej tvorby, v záverečnej etape sa koncentruje na koláže, kde sa opätovne objavujú aj figuratívne prvky. O jeho tvorbe sa po roku 1948 v bývalom Československu dlhé roky mlčalo, po krátkom záujme v 60. rokoch začala byť jeho tvorba opätovne prehodnocovaná až po roku 1989. Začiatky Endre Nemesa po nútenej emigrácií pred fašizmom v roku 1938 do Švédska (po krátkych pobytoch vo Fínsku a Nórsku) boli zložité a náročné, postupne sa však so svojou tvorbou aj v umelecky pomerne konzervatívnom Švédsku výrazne presadil. Galérii Nedbalka sa podarilo vybudovať najväčšiu kolekciu autorových diel na Slovensku s viacerými ťažiskovými obrazmi dokumentujúcimi jeho jednotlivé tvorivé obdobia.
