The Girl on the Landing
The novel begins as Michael, a middle-aged man of means, is dressing for dinner at a friend's country house in Ireland. As he descends the grand staircase, he spots a small painting of a landing with an old linen press and the white marble statue of an angel. In the background is a woman clad in a dark green dress. During dinner, Michael comments on the painting to his hosts but they say there is no woman in the picture. When Michael goes up to bed later, he sees that they are correct. This is only the first in a series of incidents that lead Michael to question his grip on reality. His wife Elilzabeth is unsettled by the changes she sees in a man she originally married because he was dependable and steady, not because she loved him. Suddenly she is aware that she has never really known Michael and as he changes, she sees glimpses of someone she could fall in love with. Michael, in the meantime, is disturbed by events up at his family's ancestral home in the wilds of Scotland and by a past that he is threatening to destroy everything, and everyone, he has ever loved.

Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life - until the unthinkable happens.

Japanese Style at Home
Japanese interiors focus primarily on one simple philosophy, Zen. All the rooms in a traditionally furnished Japanese home strive to achieve a balance of peace and simplicity; their interiors are steeped in centuries of cultural influence, and a sense of calm is key to the whole aesthetic.
This handbook shows how to create a tailor-made Japanese home. Working through the house one room at a time, it highlights classic items of furniture and signature accessories, from tatami mats and paper lanterns to shoji (dividing screens). In-depth case studies demonstrate the essential elements and provide inspiration, while colour combinations are explored to help personalize this iconic style for the home.
Anyone who hankers after the Japanese look and is eager to bring it to their own home will find this book a valuable resource.

The Word: On the Translation of the Bible
From the Sunday Times bestselling author of A History of the Bible, this is the story of how the Bible has been translated, and why it matters
The Bible is held to be both universal and specific, the source of fundamental truths inscribed in words that are exact and sacred. For much of the history of Judaism and almost the entirety of Christianity, however, believers have overwhelmingly understood scripture not in the languages in which it was first written but rather in their own - in translation.
This book examines how saints, scholars and interpreters from ancient times down to the present have produced versions of the Bible in the language of their day while remaining true to the original. It explains the challenges they negotiated, from minute textual ambiguities up to the sweep of style and stark differences in form and thought between the earliest writings and the latest, and it exposes the bearing these have on some of the most profound questions of faith: the nature of God, the existence of the soul and possibility of its salvation.
Reading dozens of renderings alongside their ancient Hebrew and Greek antecedents, John Barton traces the migration of biblical words and ideas across linguistic borders, illuminating original meanings as well as the ways they were recast. 'Translators have been among the principal agents in mediating the Bible's message,' he writes, 'even in shaping what that message is.' At the separation of Christianity from Judaism and Protestantism from Catholicism, Barton demonstrates, vernacular versions did not only spring from fault lines in religious thinking but also inspired and moulded them. The product of a lifetime's study of scripture, The Word itself reveals the central book of our culture anew - as it was written and as we know it.

Slovenská nová vlna - The Slovak New Wave
Výstavní a publikační projekt českého kurátora a slovenské kurátorky představuje osm autorů dlouhodobě tvořících v Praze nebo s tímto prostředím bezprostředně spjatých: Ruda Prekopa, Vasila Stanka, Tona Stana, Martina Štrbu, Mira Švolíka, Kamila Vargu, Petra Župníka a tragicky zesnulého Jana Pavlíka. Skupina „slovenských fotografů žijících v Čechách“ nebo „českých fotografů slovenského původu“ je jakýmsi společným kulturním statkem obou států a zajímavým fenoménem při zkoumání vztahů mezi českou a slovenskou fotografií. Katedra fotografie pražské Akademie múzických umění byla v sedmdesátých a osmdesátých letech jedinou vysokou školou s výukou fotografie ve střední Evropě. Je překvapivé, že generace Slovenské nové vlny zůstala prakticky nekontaminovaná tradicí české fotografie a na půdě pražské FAMU vyrostla jako osobitý solitér. Přesto, nebo možná právě proto, že nešlo o organizovanou skupinu s vytyčeným programem, jejich poměrně jednotný vizuální jazyk představoval jeden z prvních projevů fotografické postmoderny u nás. Cílem kurátorů bylo prozkoumat fenomén Slovenské nové vlny a jeho východiska s časovým odstupem téměř tří desetiletí. Osobitý důraz kladou kurátoři na díla, která nebyla ve své době představena vůbec nebo jen okrajově.
