A bástya - The Castle
„Gabriel Miller azzal hiteget, hogy az elefántcsonttornyában tökéletes biztonságban vagyok, holott az üldözőim folyton a nyomomban vannak, a ház körül ólálkodva alig várják, hogy végezzenek velem. Egy hadseregnyi biztonsági őr strázsál az udvaron, sőt, még a falakon belül is. Az ösztöneim azt súgják, a veszélyt mégis közelebb kell keresnem. Nem tudom, Gabriel a pártfogóm vagy ellenségem, a háza az én védelmező bástyám vagy a börtönöm. Nincs hová mennem. Senki sem maradt, akiben bízhatnék. A múlt elől azonban nincs menekvés. Rettegek, hogy megtalál az, aki egész életemben a sarkamban volt. Vajon Gabriel lesz a megmentőm?” A Bástya az Endgame-trilógia befejező kötete: bosszúról, csábításról, szerelmi játszmákról és az igaz szerelemről.

Marko však zničehonic Borisovi oznámí, že se budou muset přestat stýkat, protože se bude ženit. Rozchod, navíc za takto nepochopitelných okolností, Borise bolestivě zasáhne. Nejenže Marko svoji homosexualitu tajil i před nejbližší rodinou, ale ještě se rozhodl žít „klasickým“ způsobem života, aby svou orientaci dokonale zakamufloval a vyhověl vlastní rodině.

Když do Borisova života nečekaně vstoupí mladý lékař Michal, přitažlivý, vnímavý, citlivý a empatický muž, Boris odmítá pokračovat ve lži a rozhodne se svojí homosexualitu přiznat nejbližšímu a nejmilovanějšímu člověku – své mámě...

The Blue Fairy Book
Andrew Lang's Fairy Books or Andrew Lang's "Coloured" Fairy Books constitute a twelve-book series of fairy tale collections. Although Andrew Lang did not collect the stories himself from the oral tradition, the extent of his sources, who had collected them originally (with the notable exception of Madame d'Aulnoy), made them an immensely influential collection, especially as he used foreign-language sources, giving many of these tales their first appearance in English. As acknowledged in the prefaces, although Lang himself made most of the selections, his wife and other translators did a large portion of the translating and telling of the actual stories.The Blue Fairy Book assembled a wide range of tales, with seven from the Brothers Grimm, five from Madame d'Aulnoy, three from the Arabian Nights, and four Norse stories, among other sources.(wikipedia)

The Rise of Islamic State
The essential "on the ground" report on the fastest growing new threat in the Middle East
Born of the Iraqi and Syrian civil wars, the Islamic State astonished the world in 2014 by creating a powerful new force in the Middle East. By combining religious fanaticism and military prowess, the new self-declared caliphate poses a threat to the political status quo of the whole region.
In The Rise of Islamic State, Patrick Cockburn describes the conflicts behind a dramatic unraveling of US foreign policy. He shows how the West created the conditions for ISIS's explosive success by stoking the war in Syria. The West-the US and NATO in particular-underestimated the militants' potential until it was too late and failed to act against jihadi sponsors in Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan.
Under the Magnolias - Magnóliák alatt
Az éjszaka, ami nemcsak a szárazság végét jelentette, hanem a régóta őrzött titokét is, melyet a magnóliák alatt rejtegettünk.
Magnólia, Dél-Karolina, 1980.
Austin Foster alig tinédzser, amikor édesanyja ikreknek adva életet, belehal a szülésbe. Ezzel neki kell összeszednie a darabkákat, miközben hat testvérét összetartja, és mindent megtesz, hogy apja ne süppedjen a saját sötétségébe.
A család dohányfarmján összekaparni a betevőt nem éppen zökkenőmentes.
Amikor néhány kedves cselekedet segít enyhíteni Fosterék küzdelmét, Austin azon kapja magát, hogy Magnólia legszínesebb polgáraira támaszkodik, mind barátságban, mind másban. De az igazságot eltitkolni a Nólia birtokon zajló eseményekről közel lehetetlen, és Austin kétségbeesett próbálkozása, hogy fenntartsa a látszatot, csaknem megtöri a lelkét.
Épp, amikor úgy tűnik, többet tartogat számára az élet egy gazdag helyi család fiával, akibe évekkel ezelőtt belezúgott, apja olyan döntést hoz, amely kitárja titkaik ajtaját, és nyilvános számvetéshez vezet. Következményekkel jár, ha olyan fiút szeretsz, mint Vance Cumberland, ám az igazság felszabadító is lehet.
T. I. Lowe merész, mégis gyengéd és felemelő regénye emlékeztet, hogy egy történet lehet nagyszerű, még ha össze is töri a szíved... majd a lehető legjobb módon befoltozza.
Az év legmegindítóbb felnőtté válási története.

The Courage to Care
A vital and timely book about inspirational nurses, and the bravery of patients and families, from the bestselling author of The Language of Kindness. Nurses have never been more important. We benefit from their expertise in our hospitals and beyond: in our schools, on our streets, in prisons, hospices and care homes. When we feel most alone, nurses remind us that we are not alone at all.
In The Courage to Care bestselling author Christie Watson reveals the remarkable extent of nurses' work. A community mental-health nurse choreographs support for a man suffering from severe depression. A teen with stab wounds is treated by the critical-care team; his school nurse visits and he drops the bravado.
A pregnant woman loses frightening amounts of blood following a car accident; it is a military nurse who synchronises the emergency department into immaculate order and focus. Christie makes a further discovery: that, time and again, it is patients and their families - including her own - who show exceptional strength in the most challenging times. We are all deserving of compassion, and as we share in each other's suffering, Christie Watson shows us how we can find courage too.
The courage to care. Praise for Christie Watson:'Let's be thankful for wonderful nurses - and writers - like Christie Watson' Jacqueline Wilson'Christie Watson is a remarkable writer turning her attention to a crucially important conversation' Nathan Filer'Christie Watson writes with the fullness of her heart to give us insight into the world of patients and nursing, inspiring us to recognise it is how we treat people, how we speak and respond to them, as well as what we do, that heals' Julia Samuel

Rolling Stones, The - Voodoo Lounge Uncut BD+CD
Kultovní rocková kapela Rolling Stones vydává nově sestříhaný, remixovaný a remasterovaný archivní koncertní film Voodoo Lounge Uncut, který byl natočený 25. listopadu 1994 v Miami na stadionu Joe Robbieho během světového turné k desce Voodoo Lounge. Mezi hosty se objeví například Sheryl Crow, Robert Cray nebo Bo Diddley. Nová verze filmu obsahuje deset dosud nezveřejněných vystoupení a pět bonusových písní z Giants Stadium v New Jersey, které v Miami nezazněly. Série nahrávek, která zobrazuje Rolling Stones na koncertní šňůře v polovině devadesátých let, vyjde 16. listopadu.
Mezi skladby, které se na Voodoo Lounge Uncut objeví, patří například Not Fade Away, You Got Me Rocking, (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction, Sympathy For The Devil nebo Jumpin' Jack Flash.
Voodoo Lounge Tour začalo v dubnu 1994, trvalo přibližně rok a obsahovalo 134 koncertů na šesti kontinentech, které shlédlo přes 6, 5 milionu fanoušků, čímž se turné stalo svého času vůbec největším. Voodoo Lounge album se v roce svého vydání stalo bezkonkurenčním číslem jedna po celém světě. V roce 1995 dokonce vyhrálo Grammy za nejlepší rockové album.
Rolling Stones jsou kapelou, která je od svého počátku v roce 1962, kdy byli protipólem svatouškovských Beatles, nedomyslitelným pilířem rockové hudby. O tom vypovídá i jejich zařazení na čtvrté místo v žebříčku padesáti nesmrtelných interpretů rock'n'rollu časopisu Rolling Stone, dvojnásobný zisk Grammy za celoživotní dílo a uvedení do Rock'n'rollové síně slávy. Tvrdé jádro kapely tvoří na rytíře pasovaný zpěvák Mick Jagger a kytarový mág s životním příběhem rebela Keith Richards.
