Everything But the Girl - Fuse CD
Po dlhšej prestávke, ktorá trvala viac ako 20 rokov, je najoriginálnejšie popové duo 90. rokov späť, aby znovu získalo svoju slávu na svojom novom albume Fuse. Album, v ktorom Everything But The Girl poskytuje moderný pohľad na lesklú elektronickú dušu, ktorú skupina prvýkrát objavila v polovici 90. rokov, pričom zostala úplne verná klubovo orientovanej trajektórii, ktorú zanechali na svojich kľúčových albumoch Walking Wounded (1996) a Temperamental. (1999), bez toho, aby to znelo čo i len vzdialenejšie. Thornov pôsobivý a bohato štruktúrovaný hlas je opäť raz v popredí vo Wattovej trblietavej krajine subbasov, ostrých beatov, poloosvetlených syntetizátorov a prázdneho priestoru, a ako predtým, výsledkom je zvuk kapely, ktorý je pohodlný a zároveň zvukovo súčasný. , no nestarnúce sami sebou.

Halálos Tangó
Bensőséges vallomás a tragikus sorsú francia szexszimbólumról
Őszinte, bensőséges vallomás Vanessa Schneider tollából unokatestvéréről, Maria Schneiderről, a tragikus sorsú francia színésznőről. Vanessa saját emlékeiből, mások elbeszéléseiből és a filmtörténet különféle dokumentumaiból merítve mozaikszerűen tárja az olvasó elé Maria magánéletének részleteit és karrierjének jelentősebb állomásait. A problémás, önmagát kereső érzékeny kamaszlány mindössze tizenkilenc évesen kapott főszerepet az Utolsó tangó Párizsban című provokatív Bertolucci-filmben, Marlon Brando partnereként. A botrányos alkotás azonban nemcsak a karrierjét pecsételte meg, hanem a magánéletét is.
Két nő története körvonalazódik lassan a \'70-es \'80-as évek Franciaországában, amely igazi hippikorszak, a szexuális szabadság vagy inkább szabadosság, a forradalomba vetett hit kora, amiben kulcsszerepet kap a politika és a nők helyzete is. Az emléktöredékek hűen mutatják be, hogyan válnak a nők szexuális tárggyá, és a szemünk előtt peregnek le a férfiak uralta művészvilág képkockái.
A könyvet eredetileg Maria és Vanessa együtt szerették volna megírni, ám végül a sors közbeszólt, és a színésznő 2011-ben bekövetkezett halála után a szerző magára vállalta, hogy a nagyközönség elé tárja unokatestvére életét, ami egyben saját gyermekkorának, serdülőkorának legbensőségesebb emlékeit is felvonultatja.
Vanessa Schneider őszintesége lebilincselő fegyverként hat az olvasóra, aki a képzeletben és a valóságban is bejárja Maria Schneider életét. A #metoo-mozgalom 2017-es kirobbanása pedig felemeli a leplet a Tangó hírhedt vajas jelenetéről - a kultikus film kulcsjelenete egyik pillanatról a másikra vált a mozgalom ikonikus részévé.

Railways
The advent of railways in Britain was a fundamental part of its economic and social revolution in the 19th century, with technical advances that were the envy of the world and chronicled from the beginning through meticulous drawings. Detailed plans were created of locomotives, carriages and wagons, as well as of stations, bridges and tunnels, to facilitate the manufacturing process and the maintenance of the rapidly expanding railway network.
Miraculously, about a million of these magnificent drawings have survived and are held in the National Railway Museum in York. Christopher Valkoinen has selected over 130 examples that tell the engineering history of great innovations and triumphs, such as the Forth Bridge, and reveal the work of famous pioneers, including Richard Trevithick, George Stephenson, and Nigel Gresley of Flying Scotsman fame. Other plans range from Queen Victoria's royal saloon and a travelling post office to a station tea-room at York and modern experiments with a hovertrain. There are also drawings for railways around the world: the USA, Russia, Japan, India, Australia and Egypt, among others, as well as contemporary photographs and posters.
Throughout, Valkoinen provides valuable insights into the social and political impact of the railways. He also reveals how these drawings are more than a reference tool for the historian or modelmaker; they are exquisite works of art, painstakingly produced by highly skilled artists, which can be appreciated in their own right.

Lacná kniha Lantmadár (-25%)

Montessori baba
A Montessori baba Maria Montessori nevelési elvei alapján mutatja be, hogy neveljük szeretettel, tisztelettel, megértéssel és bámulatos nyugalommal a kisbabánkat az első életévében. Simone Davies és Junnifa Uzodike közös könyve gyakorlatias javaslatok százait tartalmazza, amelyek segítenek az olvasónak, hogy megértse, mi történik a kisbabájával, és hogy támogathassa tudatos jelenlétével a baba tanulását és fejlődését. Megtudhatjuk belőle,
- hogyan készüljünk fel a szülői szerepre - testileg, érzelmileg, intellektuálisan és spirituálisan,
- hogyan váljunk aktív megfigyelővé, hogy megértsük, mit mond nekünk a baba valójában,
- hogyan alakítsunk ki Montessori-tereket az otthonunkban, köztük olyanokat, amelyekben korlátozás nélkül tevékenykedhet a baba,
- hogyan támogassunk olyan tevékenységeket, amelyek segítik, hogy a baba mozgása és nyelvi készségei a neki megfelelő ütemben fejlődhessenek,
- hogyan alakítsunk ki biztonságérzetet a babában, hogy magabiztosan indulhasson a világ felfedezésére.
Ez a könyv azért született, hogy támogatást nyújtson, és segítsen megtalálni azt a békét, amelyre oly nagy szükségünk van, amíg a baba tiszteletteli és szeretetteli gondozását tanuljuk. Lépésről lépésre mutatja be, hogyan lassítsunk le, hogy a gyermekünknek megfelelő tempóban gondoskodhassunk róla; hogyan támogassuk a babát abban, hogy bízzon önmagában, a környezetében és bennünk; miként váljunk gyakorlott megfigyelővé, hogy megértsük, mit jelez nekünk a kisbabánk; és milyen módon ültessük el a kisbabában a magabiztosság és a rácsodálkozás képességének magvait, ami az egész családunk javára válik majd.
Nagy sikerű elődjéhez, a Montessori tipegőhöz hasonlóan a Montessori baba is azon kevés gyereknevelésről szóló könyv közé sorolható, amelyre ránézni is öröm: gyönyörű, színes illusztrációi és szellős, áttekinthető felépítése összhangban áll a könyv ítélkezéstől mentes, közérthető nyelvezetével és az általa bemutatott nyugodt, megfontolt szülőséggel.

Agent Number 67, nicknamed Pygmy for his diminutive size, arrives in the United States from his totalitarian homeland (a mash-up of North Korea, Cuba, Communist-era China, and Nazi-era Germany), as an 'exchange student' into the welcoming arms of his Simpsons-spinoff Midwestern host family. Host cow father (he works in the biological weapons complex outside of town), chicken neck mother, pig dog brother, and the disconcertingly self-possessed cat sister introduce Pygmy into the rituals of postmodern American life, which he views with utter contempt. Along with his fellow operatives, all indoctrinated into the mindset of the totalitarian state, he is planning something big, something truly, truly awful, that will bring this big dumb country and its fat, dumb inhabitants to their knees.

Reclaiming His Rights
A careless mistake convinced Jason that for his wife’s sake, he had to abandon the Dominant/submissive aspect of their marriage. Now, he realizes that giving up Lila’s submission was an even bigger mistake. After months of believing he rejected her, she won’t even talk about it. He’s determined to reclaim her, but he’ll have to break down her resistance before he can regain her trust.
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Lila’s hand froze on the knob for a fraction of a second before she regained her composure.
“You know perfectly well where I’m going,” she snapped at her husband.
“You didn’t say anything to me about it.”
She whirled toward the sound of Jason’s voice, startled by how quickly and quietly he had crossed the room. Another few steps and he was beside her, leaning casually against the door she was about to open. Despite his relaxed posture, there was a keen watchfulness in his gray-green eyes that reminded her of a cat waiting for the movement that would trigger it to pounce. She turned the knob and pulled, but he held the door closed.
“Knock it off, Jason. I’m meeting the same friends I’ve been meeting every Friday. Now let me open the door.”
Without taking his hand off the door, he angled his body behind hers. She spun to keep facing him as he pivoted toward the wall. She didn’t realize she had been backing up until she felt the wall against her backside. He moved closer until she was backed completely against the wall. He waited for her to make eye contact. When she didn’t, he reached for her chin and tilted her face up toward his. She tossed her head, but he caught her chin.
“Look at me, kitten.”
Her eyes locked on his automatically. She was too busy sorting out how she felt about being called “kitten” to balk at his order. “Kitten” was a name Jason hadn’t used in nearly a year—not since the day he decided their relationship would change forever.
She tried again to jerk her chin away, but he tightened his grip. Unwilling to acknowledge the heat in his gaze, she let her eyes wander to the lock of dark hair that had fallen forward to rest rakishly over his eyebrow.
“Kitten,” Jason warned when she broke eye contact.
His voice was low and serious. She thought of it as his “I mean business” Dom's voice, and it made her shiver. She ignored the fluttery feeling in her stomach.
“Don’t call me that!”
He searched her face without responding to her demand. He expected her anger, but he was looking for something else. The arch of her eyebrows and the set of her mouth conveyed her indignation, but he knew it was her eyes that would tell him the whole story. They were large and expressive, fringed by sable lashes that shielded her gaze when her eyes were averted. Anger smoldered in their dark brown depths as she glared up at him.
She narrowed her eyes and tried to pull away, but she had nowhere to go. Undeterred, Jason shifted to insinuate his leg between her thighs. Her eyes widened in shock, and for a moment she dropped her guard. Beneath the anger, he could see pain and longing. He took his hand from the door and brushed her honey-brown hair back from her face.
“You’re staying home with me tonight, kitten.”
“You have no right to call me that!”
She pushed at his chest, but he caught her wrist and pinned it back against the wall. When she tried to pull his hand away from her chin, he caught her other hand. He gathered her wrists in one hand and held them crossed against the wall over her head, leaving his other hand free to roam.
“No right? That’s what we’re going to find out.” He ran his hand slowly down her side. “We have all night to see whether or not I still have the right.”
