The House of Sorrowing Stars
How do you heal a broken house?
First you unlock its secrets.
Alone on an island, surrounded by flowers that shine as dusk begins to fall, sits an old, faded house. Rooms cannot be rented here and visits are only for those haunted by the memory of loss.
When Liddy receives an invitation, she thinks there must be some mistake - she's never experienced loss. But with her curiosity stirred, and no other way to escape a life in which she feels trapped, she decides to accept.
Once there, she meets Vivienne, a beautiful, austere woman whose glare leaves Liddy unsettled; Ben, the reserved gardener; and Raphael, the enigmatic Keymaker. If Liddy is to discover her true purpose in the house, she must find the root of their sorrow - but the house won't give up its secrets so easily . . .
Jethro Tull - The Broadsword And The Beast CD
KDO: Slavná britská rocková skupina, jejíž ústřední postavou je zpěvák, kytarista a hráč na flétnu Ian Anderson, vznikla v roce 1967. Jethro Tull se původně věnovali experimentálnímu blues rocku, později jejich hudba vstřebala prvky klasické hudby, folku, jazzu i hard rocku. S deskou Stand Up se v roce 1969 dostali na čelo britské hitparády, nehynoucí slávu jim ale zajistila především deska Aqualung z roku 1971.
CO: Čtyřicáté výročí vydání čtrnáctého studiového alba půvoně vydaného v dubnu 1982 skupina připomněla rozšířenou reedicí. K dispozici byly varianty 4LP a 5CD+3DVD, kde zájemce mohl najít nové mixy Stevena Wilsona, demosnímky a pracovní mixy, dobové živé záznamy z koncertů v Německu i různé pracovní sessions z roku 1981. Nyní vychází nově pořízené mixy Stevena Wilsona na CD a LP samostatně.

All the Pretty Horses
John Grady Cole is the last bewildered survivor of long generations of Texas ranchers. Finding himself cut off from the only life he has ever wanted, he sets out for Mexico with his friend Lacey Rawlins. Befriending a third boy on the way, they find a country beyond their imagining: barren and beautiful, rugged yet cruelly civilized; a place where dreams are paid for in blood.
All the Pretty Horses is an acknowledged masterpiece from Pulitzer Prize winning author Cormac McCarthy, and a grand love story: a novel about childhood passing, along with innocence and a vanished American age. Steeped in the wisdom that comes only from loss, it is a magnificent parable of responsibility, revenge and survival.
The Time Machine (EN)
Audiobook The Time Machine written by H. G. Wells. At a dinner party in Richmond, the host tells an astonishing story of his travels into the future. At first it seems that man has moved on to a higher plane of existence – suffering and war seem to have been eliminated. But in fact there are two races living on the Earth – the Eloi, a leisured, decadent, androgynous group; and the Morlocks, an underground tribe of bestial workers.

The MicroBook
Cílem této učebnice je pomoci studentům lékařských fakult s učením, pochopením a vytvořením přehledu z rozsáhlého oboru lékařské mikrobiologie. Může sloužit také jako praktický společník pro lékaře různých oborů, kteří v ní mohou najít základní informace týkající se diagnostiky nejdůležitějších původců infekčních nemocí.
Text je zajímavý tím, že byl napsán pro studenty medicíny samotnými studenty medicíny. Jeho základ vznikl pod vedením doc. MVDr. Oto Meltera, Ph.D., který napsal některé kapitoly, uspořádal informace a pořídil originální fotografie. Většinu kapitol však sepsal tým studentů 2. lékařské fakulty Univerzity Karlovy pod vedením Rute Castelhano. Jazykovou úpravu provedla Shenali Amaratunga.
Autoři se domnívají, že původní fotodokumentace a diagramy pomohou studentům lépe pochopit probíraná témata. Učebnice je doplněna také kazuistikami, jejichž cílem je pomoci studentům procvičit si základní znalosti z oboru.

The Cremator
Groteskní novela Spalovač mrtvol (1967) je psychologickým dramatem, příběhem o muži, který svou práci chápe jako poslání a který v přesvědčení, že činí dobro, ničí své nejbližší. Příběh z doby mnichovské dohody a holocaustu o malém člověku, který se pod vlivem svého mefistofelského přítele a s pocitem své nadřazenosti a nenahraditelnosti stává nástrojem záhuby, který je schopen pro vyšší myšlenku obětovat cokoli, zobrazuje komický obraz rozkladu lidské osobnosti. Tíživá atmosféra napjaté doby násobí všeobecný strach – tak autor zachytil morbidní atmosféru a až neskutečný svět panoptikálních postav.
Stejně jako Mefisto Klause Manna, o člověku šířícím záhubu, je i Spalovač mrtvol příběhem o kariéře jednoho muže.

The Book of Vanishing Species
Our Earth is more beautiful and more diverse than we can possibly conceive of.
The Book of Vanishing Species is a stunning homage to the planet's most mysterious, bizarre and wondrous creatures and plants. Their stories are captivating, from the eyeless and tiny dragonlike olm to the hawksbill turtle, whose gender will be determined by the temperature of the sand it is born in. These species may have survived for hundreds of thousands of years by cleverly adapting to their environments, but their future remains far from certain.
The book brings to life red cranes as they dance and bow for the sheer joy of movement, trees that breathe out a haze of misty atmosphere for insects that only feast on one kind of flower, a deep-ocean snail quietly building its shell from iron... and each one of them is illuminated with an exquisite illustration. As you turn the pages, there emerges a network of life that stretches across and around the planet in a dazzling web of existence.
This is both a love letter to life on Earth, and an urgent summons to protect what is precious and lovely in this world.

The Fall of Boris Johnson
The Fall of Boris Johnson is the fascinating full account of how the prime minister lost his grip on power.
Sebastian Payne, Whitehall Editor for the Financial Times, tells the essential behind-the-scenes story, charting the series of scandals that felled Johnson: from the blocked suspension of Owen Paterson to Partygate, and, finally, the Chris Pincher allegations, which were the final death blow. This is the full narrative of the betrayals, rivalries and resignations that led to the dramatic Conservative coup.
With unparalleled access to those who were in the room when key decisions were made, Payne tells of the miscalculations and mistakes that led to Boris’s downfall, only two years after he first entered No.10 Downing Street. This is a gripping and timely look at how power is gained, wielded and lost in Britain today.

Lacná kniha How Not To Be Wrong : The Hidden Maths of Everyday
The maths we learn in school can seem like an abstract set of rules, laid down by the ancients and not to be questioned. In fact, Jordan Ellenberg shows us, maths touches on everything we do, and a little mathematical knowledge reveals the hidden structures that lie beneath the world's messy and chaotic surface. In How Not to be Wrong, Ellenberg explores the mathematician's method of analyzing life, from the everyday to the cosmic, showing us which numbers to defend, which ones to ignore, and when to change the equation entirely. Along the way, he explains calculus in a single page, describes Godel's theorem using only one-syllable words, and reveals how early you actually need to get to the airport.
