The Reading List
A faded list. Nine favourite stories.
For two strangers, friendship is only a page away . . . When Mukesh Patel pops to the local library, forgoing his routine of grocery shopping and David Attenborough documentaries, he has no idea his life's about to change.
He meets Aleisha, a reluctant librarian and the keeper of a curious reading list - just a scrappy piece of paper with the names of 9 stories. It doesn't seem anything special. Yet something tells her to keep it close . . .
Story by story, Mukesh and Aleisha work their way through the list - their worries slipping away with every encounter, with every world discovered in their unlikely book club of two.
A fresh chance at life, at friendship, wasn't on the cards for these lonely souls - but every story starts somewhere .
Čarovné Tatry a Zamagurie - Magical Tatras and Zamagurie Region
Na ktorý kraj sú Slováci najviac hrdí? Je na Slovensku nejaké miesto, kde sa akosi všetci cítime doma? Odpoveď je jednoduchá, predsa naše Tatry a Pieniny! O Tatrách či Pieninách vyšlo už niekoľko fotografických kníh, tak čím je táto iná? Fotografie v nej nemajú len jedného autora, ale presne 35. Sú to ľudia, ktorí pravidelne chodia zdolávať strmé štíty a nocovať do hôr. Sú to ľudia, ktorí trpezlivo striehnu na svoj záber. Sú to ľudia, ktorí sa o svoju radosť z vydarenej fotografie chcú podeliť s nami všetkými. Preto poskytli svoje krásne zábery a mohla vzniknúť táto unikátna kniha. Nenájdete v nej technické popisy, históriu, alebo faktografiu. Na to slúžia iné knihy. V tejto však môžete nájsť emóciu a dobrú energiu, a to od prvej strany až po poslednú. V každej fotografii je totiž skrytý kus duše jej autora, ktorá si pamätá jej príbeh. Ak sa do nej zahľadíte, ona vám ho rozpovie. Čarovne!
