Overnight Success
This is what this book brings you: you support climate protection, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because stubbornly holds the myth that success must be hard fought and earned laboriously. But life can also be simple. If you take a closer look, you will see that success can come quite quickly. Often, a certain pattern emerges: success is always the result of well researched information, well thought out considerations and the right decisions. But many people simply fail to achieve goals because they set the wrong priorities in everyday life and go through unstructured decision-making processes. Often, uncomfortable tasks in particular are postponed rather than completed immediately. We wait for the right impulse instead of simply taking action. And we often don't dare to clearly prioritize things that are important to us and to communicate this accordingly. In everyday life and in the professional world, it is extremely important to tackle and solve problems quickly. But how do you make the right decision spontaneously and under stress and time pressure? How do you obtain all the necessary information in the short time available to avoid making the wrong decision? And how can you control intuitive problem-solving and decision-making processes so that they are actually optimal and fact-based?

Degrees of Separation Bohumil Kubišta and the European Avant-Garde
In Beyond the Avant Garde, scholars from Czechia, Canada, Germany, and Hungary take a new approach to exploring the work of one of Central Europes most interesting modernist painters -- Bohumil Kubišta. While many art historians have consigned Kubištas work into an idealized Czech canon, Kubišta did not identify with a nation state clearly defined by ethnicity, language, and territorial reach. Although born and raised in the Czech lands of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, he traveled widely, maintained important international contacts, and served as a successful artillery officer in Austro-Hungarian army during World War I. Taking a transnational approach that incorporates thorough topographical research, the authors of Beyond the Avant-Garde: Bohumil Kubišta and European Modern Art attempt to redraw the current map of European modernism by exploring the artists subversive approach to the stylistic currents of his time. The book reveals the complex artistic, cultural, and historical relationships within early twentieth-century Europe, as Kubišta and other Central Europan artists tried to balance their admiration for the dominant artistic trends coming out of Paris with their desire to find alternative forms expression, arising from local artistic and intellectual sources. It traces Kubišta's steps through the boulevards and cafes of Paris and other cities, such as Florence and Pula, while also using cartographic techniques to record the progress of his artwork between various artistic points on Europes artistic map. In addition to the twenty scholarly chapters, the book features a wealth of documentation, including: high quality images of the artists work; an exhaustive 160-page timeline with notes from and about the artist, as well as documentary support; a comprehensive inventory of 363 Kubišta works; an exhibition list from 1907 to 2019.

The Meaninig of Mariah Carey
The global icon, award-winning singer, songwriter, producer, actress, mother, daughter, sister, storyteller, and artist finally tells the unfiltered story of her life in The Meaning of Mariah Carey.
It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams, that contributed to the person I am today. Though there have been countless stories about me throughout my career and very public personal life, it's been impossible to communicate the complexities and depths of my experience in any single magazine article or a ten-minute television interview. And even then, my words were filtered through someone else's lens, largely satisfying someone else's assignment to define me.
This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.
Writing this memoir was incredibly hard, humbling and healing. My sincere hope is that you are moved to a new understanding, not only about me, but also about the resilience of the human spirit.
Love,
Mariah

The Bridge (new cover re-issue)
The man who wakes up in the extraordinary world of a bridge has amnesia, and his doctor doesn't seem to want to cure him. Does it matter? Exploring the bridge occupies most of his days. But at night there are his dreams. Dreams in which desperate men drive sealed carriages across barren mountains to a bizarre rendezvous; an illiterate barbarian storms an enchanted tower under a stream of verbal abuse; and broken men walk forever over bridges without end, taunted by visions of a doomed sexuality. Lying in bed unconscious after an accident wouldn't be much fun, you'd think. Oh yes? It depends who and what you've left behind. Which is the stranger reality, day or night? Frequently hilarious and consistently disturbing, THE BRIDGE is a novel of outrageous contrasts, constructed chaos and elegant absurdities.

World of Warcraft - Shadows Rising
An all-new official prequel novel to Shadowlands, the next expansion for Blizzard Entertainment's legendary online game World of Warcraft.
"The Horde is nothing!" With those infamous words, Sylvanas Windrunner betrayed and abandoned the Horde she vowed to serve. The Dark Lady and her forces now work in the shadows as both the Horde and Alliance, including her own sister, Alleria, race to uncover her next move. Struggling to shoulder the crushing weight of leadership, King Anduin entrusts the void elf and High Exarch Turalyon to uncover Sylvanas's whereabouts.
The Horde now stands at a crossroads. The various factions form a council, leaving the mantle of warchief to rest. Thrall, Lor'themar Theron, Baine Bloodhoof, First Arcanist Thalyssra, and many other familiar faces rise to this new challenge. But the threats are numerous, and the distrust runs too deep.
When the council is derailed by a failed assassination attempt on Talanji-the Zandalari queen and a key ally-Thrall and the rest of the Horde leaders are forced into action. They empower the young troll shaman Zekhan, still grieving the loss of Varok Saurfang, with a critical mission to aid Talanji and help uncover the rising threat against her.
Meanwhile, Nathanos Blightcaller and Sira Moonwarden have been tasked by the Dark Lady with a terrifying gambit: to kill the troll loa of death himself, Bwonsamdi.
As Zekhan and Talanji work to save Bwonsamdi, their journey will be a key turning point in bolstering the Horde against the coming darkness and finding themselves along the way. Failure to save their allies and the trickster god will surely doom them-but through success, they may rediscover what makes the Horde strong.

Frišta
Petra Procházková přibližuje v novele Frišta s reportérskou citlivostí hektický tep kábulských ulic, žár tamního slunce a v neposlední řadě rigidní poměry v afghánské rodině i společnosti. Protagonistka novely Herra se provdá do rozvětvené kábulské rodiny, která jí na jednu stranu poskytne kýžené útočiště, na druhou stranu musí Herra sledovat násilnické chování svého švagra a občas schytá výprask i ona sama. Jednoho dne přibude do rodiny bizarně vyhlížející chlapec Mad. Díky jeho působení se dají věci do pohybu a staré pořádky se pomalu, ale jistě začnou bortit.
Příběh rámuje pád Tálibánu a příchod amerických humanitárních pracovníků, pro něž začne Herra pracovat. Její dny pak připomínají tanec mezi vejci nechce pobouřit volnomyšlenkářské Američany ani tradicionalistického manžela. To vše popisuje autorka s humorem, sugestivně a se smyslem pro detail. I díky tomu se Frišta stala předlohou animovaného filmu Moje slunce Mad režisérky Michaely Pavlátové.
Nové vydání Frišty vychází u příležitosti uvedení tohoto snímku. Zároveň se ke čtenářům dostává v době, která nelítostně ukazuje, že vyprávění neztratilo ani po letech nic ze své aktuálnosti.
