Poézia pre dvoch Poetry For Two
Básnická kniha Poézia pre dvoch Poetry For Two je napísaná po slovensky a anglicky, v dvoch jazykoch, ktorými poetka Ivana Komanická myslí, v ktorých si uvedomuje svoje bytie a v ktorých tvaruje svet okolo seba. Podoba básní je určená konverzačným tónom reálnych a fiktívnych rozhovorov s partnerom a z virtuálnej podstaty reči sa postupne začínajú formovať skutočné udalosti a skutoční ľudia zachytení v nečakanej a naliehavej situácii. Básne plynú ako políčka filmu a v ich osobitom a ľahkom rytme sa odkrýva a zahaľuje všetko to, čo človek túži povedať alebo hovorením zakryť. Kniha je vnútorne spojená s autorkinou lyrickou prózou Pre teba sa postavím proti sebe (2018) a spolu zobrazujú životný príbeh človeka zasiahnutého prítomnosťou, v ktorej sú zviditeľnené fragmenty individuálnej pamäti a záblesky toho, čo sa môže stať.

The Story Of The Lost Child
Soon to be an HBO series, book four in the New York Times bestselling Neapolitan quartet about two friends in post-war Italy is a rich, intense, and generous-hearted epic by one of today's most beloved and acclaimed writers, Elena Ferrante, "one of the great novelists of our time." (Roxana Robinson, The New York Times) Here is the dazzling saga of two women, the brilliant, bookish Elena and the fiery uncontainable Lila. In this book, life's great discoveries have been made, its vagaries and losses have been suffered. Through it all, the women's friendship, examined in its every detail over the course of four books, remains the gravitational center of their lives. Both women once fought to escape the neighborhood in which they grew up. Elena married, moved to Florence, started a family, and published several well-received books. But now, she has returned to Naples to be with the man she has always loved. Lila, on the other hand, never succeeded in freeing herself from Naples. She has become a successful entrepreneur, but her success draws her into closer proximity with the nepotism, chauvinism, and criminal violence that infect her neighborhood. Yet somehow this proximity to a world she has always rejected only brings her role as unacknowledged leader of that world into relief. Ferrante is one of the world's great storytellers. With the Neapolitan quartet she has given her readers an abundant, generous, and masterfully plotted page-turner that is also a stylish work of literary fiction destined to delight readers for many generations to come.

The World for Sale
We are entering an age of energy crises and food shortages. This book reveals why.
Meet the swashbuckling traders who supply the world with energy, food and metal.
Their goal: To make billions by buying and selling raw materials - flogging Russian gas to Europe, Saudi oil to America and Congolese metals to Silicon Valley.
Their methods: Whatever it takes - whether funnelling cash to Vladimir Putin's sanction-stricken Kremlin, schmoozing Russian metal oligarchs after the collapse of the Soviet Union, or striking deals with the Libyan rebels at the height of the Arab Spring.
These are the commodity traders. You've probably never heard of them. But, like it or not, you're one of their customers.

Becoming: Adapted for Younger Readers
*A younger reader's edition of the number-one bestselling memoir by former first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama. With a new introduction from Mrs Obama herself*
What's important is our story, our whole story, including those moments when we feel a little vulnerable . . .
Michelle Robinson started life sharing a bedroom with her older brother Craig, in their family's upstairs apartment in her great-aunt's house. Her parents, Fraser and Marian, poured their love and energy into their children. She would go on to become Michelle Obama, the inspirational First Lady of the United States of America.
Now adapted for younger readers, with new photographs and a new introduction from Michelle Obama herself, this memoir tells a very personal, and completely inspiring, story of how, through hard work and determination, the girl from the South Side of Chicago built an extraordinary life.
A tale of ups and downs, triumphs and failures, this is an incredibly honest account. It will take you from the early years - first kiss, first school, first love - to the wonders of the White House, and the moment Mrs Obama shook hands with the Queen of England.
A book to read, share, and talk about with the adults in your life, this is a call to action and compassion, and hope for change in uncertain times, and in a scary world.
You'll be inspired to help others, and understand that no one is perfect. Just like Michelle Obama, you too are finding out exactly who you want to be (and, actually, so are the adults in your life).
Above all, it is a book to make you think: who are you, and what do you want to become?

Wait for you - Várok rád
A 19 éves Avery Morgansten életét egy öt évvel korábbi halloween-buli mindörökre megváltoztatta. Menekvésként az otthonától több ezer kilométerre lévő egyetemre jelentkezik. Nem akar mást, mint minden feltűnést kerülve elvégezni az iskoláit - de már az első napon összeakad egy sráccal, aki képes darabokra törni a maga számára gondosan felépített jövőt.
Vannak dolgok, amiket át kell élni...
Cameron Hamilton 190 centi magas, amolyan leányálom - szikrázóan kék szemmel és valami megfoghatatlan képességgel arra, hogy Avery megint olyasmikre vágyjon, amiktől évekkel korábban megfosztották. Veszedelmes dolog lenne közelebbről is megismerkedni vele, de lehetetlen figyelmen kívül hagyni a kettejük között vibráló feszültséget, ami felszínre hozza Avery személyiségének egy mindeddig ismeretlen oldalát.
Vannak dolgok, amiket nem lehet elhallgatni...
Aztán Avery egyre több fenyegető e-mailt és hívást kap, és kénytelen szembenézni a múltjával, amit annyira szeretett volna mindörökre elfelejteni. Rádöbben, hogy van valaki, aki nem fogja egykönnyen elengedni. Vajon ha kiderül a rettenetes igazság, ezzel Avery is elindulhat a gyógyulás útján?
És Cam akkor is mellette marad majd, ha megtudja mi történt?
Vannak dolgok, amikért megéri harcolni...

Lacná kniha Bloc Life - Stories from the Lost World of Communism (-70%)
There was life before the fall.
1989 was a year of astonishing and rapid change: the fall of the Berlin Wall marked the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and an end to an entire way of life for millions of people behind the Iron Curtain. Bloc Life collects first hand testimony of the people who lived in East Germany, Czechoslovakia and Romania during the Cold War era, and reveals a rich tapestry of experience that goes beyond the headlines of spies and surveillance, secret police and political corruption. In fact, many of the people remember their lives under communism as 'perfectly ordinary' and even hanker for the 'security' that it offered.
From political leaders, athletes and pop stars, to cooks, miners and cosmonauts, the stories collected in Bloc Life evoke the moods, preoccupations and experiences of a world that vanished almost overnight.

Star Wars: Survivor's Quest
The specter of the meancing Grand Admiral Thrawn looms over Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade as they embark on a journey to recover an important piece of Jedi history.
Sometimes it seems a Jedi's work is never done and Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker know this only too well. Despite the bond they share in the Force, after three years of marriage the Jedi Master and his wife are still learning the ropes of being a couple-and struggling to find time together between the constant demands of duty. But all that will change when they're united on an unexpected mission: They must pool their exceptional skills to combat an insidious enemy and salvage a part of Jedi history.
Whatever may await, the Skywalkers will not face it alone. Joining them on the strange and solemn journey are an officer of the post-Palpatine Empire, escorted by a detachment of Imperial stormtroopers; a party of diplomats from a gentle alien species that reveres the fallen Jedi for saving them from bloodthirsty conquerors; and a New Republic ambassador who harbors his own mysterious agenda.
Soon enough, suspicion, secrecy, and an unknown saboteur run rampant aboard the isolated ship. But it is within the derelict walls of Outbound Flight itself, buried for half a century on a desolate planetoid, where the gravest danger lies. As the marooned hulk yields up stunning revelations and unexpected terrors to its visitors, Luke and Mara find all they stand for-and their very existence-brutally challenged. And the ultimate test will be surviving the deathtrap carefully laid by foes who are legendary for their ruthlessness . . . and determined to complete the job Thrawn began: exterminating the Jedi.
