Macbeth
Macbeth is among the best-known of William Shakespeare's plays, and is his shortest tragedy, believed to have been written between 1603 and 1606. It is frequently performed at both amateur and professional levels, and has been adapted for opera, film, books, stage and screen. Often regarded as archetypal, the play tells of the dangers of the lust for power and the betrayal of friends. For the plot Shakespeare drew loosely on the historical account of King Macbeth of Scotland by Raphael Holinshed and that by the Scottish philosopher Hector Boece. There are many superstitions centred on the belief the play is somehow "cursed", and many actors will not mention the name of the play aloud, referring to it instead as "The Scottish play".

A Room of One's Own
A Room of One's Own is an extended essay by Virginia Woolf. First published on 24 October 1929, the essay was based on a series of lectures she delivered at Newnham College and Girton College, two women's colleges at Cambridge University in October 1928. While this extended essay in fact employs a fictional narrator and narrative to explore women both as writers of and characters in fiction, the manuscript for the delivery of the series of lectures, titled "Women and Fiction", and hence the essay, are considered non-fiction. The essay is generally seen as a feminist text, and is noted in its argument for both a literal and figural space for women writers within a literary tradition dominated by patriarchy.

Healthy At Last
'Chronic diseases may often be reversed and prevented by changing diet and lifestyle. In this important and compelling book, Eric Adams describes how. Highly recommended.'
- Dean Ornish MD, author of five New York Times bestsellers including UnDo It
Can you dramatically improve your health by embracing a plant-based diet? Eric Adams, mayor of New York City, believes that you can.
A police officer for more than two decades, Eric Adams was a connoisseur of fast food, and like so many people with stressful jobs, the last thing he had time to think about was eating healthily.

When he himself was diagnosed with the condition in 2016, he became determined to get to the root of the problem: the food he was eating. By switching to a vegan, wholefood diet, he lost weight, lowered his cholesterol, and improved his health beyond recognition.
Now armed with the hard science and real-life stories of others who have transformed their bodies by changing their diet and lifestyle, he is on a mission to spread the word that not only are these kind of radical health improvements possible, they can also be enjoyable.
With shopping tips and gentle lifestyle advice, Eric shows how you can become healthier without abandoning the food you love. he explores the origins of soul food and how it can be reimagined with healthy alternatives. From Chipotle Mac 'n' Cheese to Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies, Eric is keen to show this is not about restriction but instead finding joy in real food. Packed with up-to-date nutritional advice and recipes from the likes of Dr Michael Greger, Raymond Jackson, Paul McCartney, Alan Cummings and more, this is the perfect book for anyone looking to improve their health in small, manageable and pleasurable steps.

We Had To Remove This Post
To be a content moderator is to see humanity at its worst - but Kayleigh needs money. That's why she takes a job working for a social media platform whose name she isn't allowed to mention. Her job: reviewing offensive videos and pictures, rants and conspiracy theories, and deciding which need to be removed.
It's gruelling work. Kayleigh and her colleagues spend all day watching horrors and hate on their screens, evaluating them with the platform's ever-changing moderating guidelines. Yet Kayleigh is good at her job, and in her colleagues she finds a group of friends, even a new girlfriend - and for the first time in her life, Kayleigh's future seems bright.
But soon the job seems to change them all, shifting their worlds in alarming ways. How long before the moderators own morals bend and flex under the weight of what they see?
We Had To Remove This Post by Hanna Bervoets is a chilling, powerful and gripping story about who or what determines our world view. Examining the toxic world of content moderation, the novel forces us to ask: what is right? What is real? What is normal? And who gets to decide?
A föld nyelte el
#1 New York Times Bestseller
"Csontig hatoló feszültség." (People)"Tökéletes kikapcsolódás." (Bustle)
Ellie Mack egyszerűen tökéletes volt. Tizenöt éves, a legkisebb a három testvér közül. Szerették a szülei, a barátai, a tanárai, a pasijával álompárt alkottak. Már csak néhány nap volt hátra, hogy kezdődjön az idilli, vizsgák utáni nyári szünidő. Előtte állt az élet.
Amikor a föld nyelte el.
Tíz év telt el, Ellie édesanyjának, Laurel Macknek időközben tönkrement a házassága. Most egy kávézóban megismerkedik egy férfival, aki váratlanul vonzónak bizonyul. Laurel meglepetten érzi, hogy a flört kezd komolyra fordulni: máris ott tartanak, hogy a férfi, Floyd bemutatja a lányainak. És Laurel lélegzete elakad - mert Floyd legkisebb lánya szakasztott úgy néz ki, mint Ellie.
Hogyan lehetséges mindez? Egyáltalán hova tűnt Ellie? Laurelben újra feltolulnak a nagy nehezen szőnyeg alá söpört kérdések.
„A föld nyelte el a karosszékhez szegez.” – Popsugar
„Jewell pont a megfelelő ütemben bontogatja sokágú történetét, az olvasó meg a körmét rágja. Biztos hasonlítgatni fogják Emma Donoghue A szobájához, meg az összes Lány… című thrillerhez, de Jewell legújabb könyve nem utánoz senkit. Sokoldalú szereplői tökéletesek, és a legélesebb szemű thrillerolvasó sem fogja látni, hova fut ki mindez, míg az utolsó szálat is el nem varrja. Az a néhány olvasó sem hagyja félbe, aki helyesen tippel az elején, olyan gyors a tempó és élvezetes a stílus.” – Booklist
„A bestselleríró Lisa Jewell sötét, borzongató családi könyve emlékeztet a Komfortos mennyországra… Több narrátor hangján szólal meg Jewell érzelmileg megterhelő története veszteségről, gyászról és újrakezdésről.” – Publishers Weekly
„A thrillerek kedvelői nem fognak csalódni Jewell legújabb könyvében. A jól megírt csavarok és fordulatok tetszeni fognak a Holtodiglan, a Lány a vonaton, a Szerencse lánya olvasóinak.” – Library Journal
„A föld nyelte el komplex, igazán izgalmas regény, amely ráadásul alaposan bemutatja, hogyan reagálnak az emberek a gyászra, a régi trauma hogyan alakítja évekkel vagy évtizedekkel később is a döntéseiket és a kapcsolataikat. Az olvasót komolyan megrázza, amikor fény derül Ellie történetére. A reményteli, bár keserédes befejezés kielégítő. Jewell megint bebizonyította, hogy képes mélyen sokkolni, meglepni és meghatni az olvasóit.” – Book Reporter
„Ha a barátaid közül te voltál az első, aki a Lány a vonatont olvasta, és annyiszor olvastad a Holtodiglant, hogy már számon sem tartod, akkor itt a nyári olvasmányod. Thriller a tizenötévesről, aki eltűnt és az anyáról, aki nem adta fel a reményt. Egy koktél mellé tökéletes.” – Sun
„Okos és letehetetlen.” – Sunday Mirror
„Jewell búcsút mondott a romantikus regényeknek és belevetette magát a lélektani thrillerekbe, de zsenialitása nem változott… Mélyen megható és hihetetlenül csavaros. Bravó.” – Mail Online
„Sötét, abba sem hagyható lélektani thriller, ugyanakkor reményteljes és gyengéd. Egyszerűen imádtam a A föld nyelte elt.” – Rachel Rhys, a Nyár a francia riviérán szerzője
„A könyv egy elveszett lány édesanyjával indul, aki új kapcsolatba kezd, amikor végre megbirkózik a gyásszal, de izgalmas, ijesztő és teljesen elképesztő történetté alakul arról, mi is történt igazából a fiatal Ellie Mackkel. Régóta rajongok Lisa Jewellért és mint mindig, ebben a könyvében is lenyűgöző sztorit mesél komoly érzelmi mélységgel, amitől csak kapkodod a levegőt. A föld nyel
