The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
"Everything you would expect from Collins is
here: fraught teenage love; plenty of violence... the themes of
friendship, betrayal, authority and oppression will please and thrill"
The Guardian
"It works beautifully... please don't
make us wait another decade" The Times
Ambition will fuel him.
Competition
will drive him.
But power has its price.
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth
annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus
Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games.
The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its
fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able
to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuvre his fellow students to mentor
the winning tribute.
The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment
of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest
of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - ; every
choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favour or failure, triumph
or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside
the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute...
and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire
to survive no matter what it takes.
The Psychology of Money
Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people.
Money-investing, personal finance, and business decisions-is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.
In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

Bridge of Clay
THE EPIC NEW NOVEL FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE BOOK THIEF
'A captivating book with a mighty, fearless heart, BRIDGE OF CLAY is filled with characters to believe in and care about ... achingly moving, delightfully funny, and thoroughly uplifting.' M L STEDMAN, bestselling author of The Light Between Oceans
Here is a story told inside out and back to front
Five Dunbar brothers are living - fighting, loving, grieving - in the perfect chaos of a house without grown-ups. Today, the father who left them has just walked right back in.
He has a surprising request: Who will build a bridge with him?
It is Clay, a boy tormented by a long-buried secret, who accepts. But why is Clay so broken? And why must he fulfil this extraordinary challenge?
Bridge of Clay is about a boy caught in a current, a boy intent on destroying everything he has in order to become everything he needs to be. Ahead of him lies the bridge, the vision that will save both his family and himself.
It will be a miracle and nothing less.
At once an existential riddle and a search for redemption, this tale of five brothers coming of age in a house with no rules brims with energy, joy and pathos. Written in Markus Zusak's distinctive style, it is a tour de force from a master storyteller of the heart.
Rivers of Babylon (audiokniha)
Číta: Marián Miezga
Knižný debut, román Rivers of Babylon, vzbudil nebývalý čitateľský a kritický záujem. Pišťanek v ňom expresívnym jazykom s využitím rôznych štýlových vrstiev opisuje pre slovenskú literatúru netradičné prostredie bratislavského podsvetia, ktoré zaľudňujú postavy drobných i väčších podvodníkov a prostitútok. Jedinou ambíciou týchto ľudí je spríjemniť si život, čo v ich chápaní znamená oklamať, využiť či zničiť tých ostatných. V tomto svete sa svojou primitívnou a priamočiarou túžbou po moci a peniazoch čoraz viac presadzuje hlavná postava, dedinčan Rácz. Niekde v pozadí týchto činností, ktoré postavám zapĺňajú celý život, sa odohráva revolučná zmena roku 1989. Inšpiračné zdroje pre tento román nájdeme v tzv. poklesnutých žánroch - aj Pišťanek kladie dôraz najmä na priamočiarosť rozprávania a rýchly spád deja. Namiesto psychologizácie sa prikláňa k extrovertnému typu písania.

Secret Warriors, Psychic Spies
What is this thing called psychic phenomena? Could it be real? Is it possible for your essence to leave your physical body, travel to spiritual realms, visit other realities? Can you see the shape of the future?
Could altered states of consciousness be portals to these unexplored worlds?
The U.S. Army thought so, and, between 1977 and 1984 conducted experiments to prove it.
Are you curious? Do you want to believe? Yes? Then come, take a trip with me.
This is a true story of one of the Army's Top-Secret experiments.

Lacná kniha Martin Gerboc - Une Saison en Enfer (-70%)
Monografická publikace, představující výběr z více jak dvacetiletého malířského díla Martina Gerboce (1971), odkazuje ve svém názvu ke knize Arthura Rimbauda Une saison en enfer a podobně jako v poezii prokletého básníka kontrastuje krása a ošklivost, v Gerbocově díle stojí děs po boku rozkoši. Právě hranice, kde se obě charakteristiky stýkají, je pro Gerboce místem, kde setrvává, je jím fascinován a zkoumá je coby nebezpečnou zónu samoty a strachu. Výrazovým prostředkem je mu punková estetika ošklivosti nebo ještě lépe estetika terorismu, která svou otevřeností vyvolává nejdříve odpor a nevoli, je však ve své záhadnosti přitažlivá. Téměř monochromní barevnost odkazuje na barvy těla, jeho vnějšek i vnitřek, krev, kůži, sliznice, oheň i hnilobu. Tematicky se Gerboc obrací k berlínskému kabaretu dvacátých a třicátých let minulého století - tavícímu kotlíku dekadentních kulturních tradic střední Evropy, dále k pornografii a sexualitě versus erotizujícím náboženským motivům či obrazům Francisca Goyi. Umělcova tvorba je často odrazem několika souběžně probíhajících dějů. Divák v tomto osobním střetu čelí svému vlastnímu podvědomí, skrytým touhám a zakázaným rozkoším. Kniha vychází v dvoujazyčném anglicko-českém vydání.
