Winsor McCay. The Complete Little Nemo
Meet Little Nemo, a diminutive hero of comic narrative, but one of the greatest dream voyagers of the 20th century. The master creation of Winsor McCay (1869-1934), restless sleeper Nemo inspired generations of artists with his weekly adventures from bed to Slumberland, a realm of colorful companions, psychedelic scenery, and thrilling escapades.
Nemo's creator Winsor McCay was a founding figure in the modern American entertainment industry, above all with his revolutionary comics, which set standards for panel layout and storytelling technique, timing and pacing, and architectural and other detail that left an inestimable influence on subsequent artists, including Robert Crumb and Federico Fellini.
TASCHEN's sumptuous Winsor McCay - The Complete Little Nemo collects, in full, glorious color, all 549 episodes of Little Nemo. In the illustrated essay, art historian and comics expert Alexander Braun places Winsor McCay's life and work within the cultural history of the U.S. media and entertainment industry, and explores the immense art historical value of McCay's dream narrative. At once an adventure story, visual delight, and piece of cultural history, this publication is a tremendous monument to one of the most innovative pioneers-and one of the most intrepid explorers-of comic history.
Small Town Secrets (EN)
Audiobook Small Town Secrets written by Alys Murray. Stepping off the Greyhound bus, I look at the town glinting in the distance beyond a crystal-clear mountain lake. The lines I’ve memorized from the ad are on repeat in my mind: accommodation and employment provided to women willing to relocate to a historic town with a shortage of women. When Virginia first sees the ad, her breath catches.

And of course Will insists on coming with.

Nico will have to face demons both internal and external as his relationship with Will is tested to the core in this standalone adventure featuring two of the most popular characters in the Percy Jackson saga.
The Little Book of Tom. Bikers
In 1953 Marlon Brando donned a black leather Perfecto motorcycle jacket, military cap, denim jeans, and engineer boots to portray Johnny, sneering leader of the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, in The Wild One. In 1954 Tom of Finland abandoned brown leather in his artwork to create his own wild ones: muscular, hyper-masculine, black leather-clad rebels with powerful engines between their legs. The look was adopted by the Satyrs Motorcycle Club, the first gay outlaw club, that same year, making Tom's fantasy world reality. Of course, being Tom, he soon customized his new gay icons, adding leather jodhpurs, knee high boots and leather caps, and every motorcycle bore the brand name "Tom" on the gas tank.
Tom's bikers first appeared as two "Motorcycle Boys" in Physique Pictorial, Winter 1958. Another made the cover of the April 1960 issue. Bikers dominated his PP content from then on, as a nod to its American readership as much as his growing obsession. When he sought an ongoing character, a personal avatar, in 1968, he created Kake as the ultimate biker leatherman, and elaborated on his riding adventures - of every kind - through 26-panel stories. Tom adopted Kake's gear as his own, presenting in black leather jacket, white t-shirt, jeans, and high boots to the end of his life.
The Little Book of Tom: Bikers includes Tom's earliest images for Physique Pictorial, Kake in motorcycle gear, biker panel stories, and sizzling single drawings, all packed into 192 pages of sexy, masculine men enjoying other masculine men in black leather, blue jeans, and high black boots. On bikes.
Na konci cesty - Krematórium v Bratislave - At the End of the Road The Bratislava Crematorium
Kniha sa podrobne zaoberá mimoriadnym architektonickým dielom - bratislavským krematóriom. Postavili ho pred pol storočím (1968) za neobyčajne priaznivej súhry okolností, no predchádzal tomu dlhý zápas o jeho zriadenie, ktorého počiatky siahajú až do roku 1889. Preto kniha približuje aj históriu moderného kremačného hnutia v Európe so zreteľom na dlhý zápas mesta Bratislava o krematórium, ďalej sa zaoberá domácimi a zahraničnými architektonickými podnetmi, ktoré ovplyvnili architektúru objektu. Okrem príbehu samotnej budovy a urnového hája, v ktorom stojí, sa dočítate o tvorivej dráhe autora budovy, architekta Ferdinanda Milučkého, príslušníka prvej povojnovej slovenskej architektonickej generácie, ale aj súvislostiach vzniku pozoruhodných výtvarných diel z areálu krematória - sôch od troch špičkových slovenských výtvarníkov. Text Matúša Dullu v slovenčine a angličtine sprevádzajú umelecké fotografie Olje Triašky Stefanović. Snímky citlivo zachytávajú premeny krematória a prostredia, v ktorom sa nachádza, počas jednotlivých ročných období. Publikácia vychádza pri príležitosti päťdesiateho výročia vzniku prvého slovenského krematória.
Rolling Stones, The - Live At The Wiltern 2CD+DVD
"The Rolling Stones" je anglická rocková skupina založená v Londýne v roku 1962. Aktívna už viac ako šesť desaťročí, je jednou z najpopulárnejších a najtrvalejších kapiel rockovej éry. Začiatkom 60. rokov boli Rolling Stones priekopníkmi drsného, rytmicky riadeného zvuku, ktorý definoval hard rock. Ich prvú stabilnú zostavu tvorili spevák Mick Jagger, multiinštrumentalista Brian Jones, gitarista Keith Richards, basgitarista Bill Wyman a bubeník Charlie Watts. Počas ich formovania bol Jones hlavným lídrom: zostavil skupinu, pomenoval ju a riadil jej zvuk a imidž. Po tom, čo sa v roku 1963 stal manažérom skupiny Andrew Loog Oldham, povzbudil ich, aby napísali svoje vlastné piesne. Jagger a Richards sa stali primárnou tvorivou silou kapely, čím odcudzili Jonesa, ktorý si vyvinul drogovú závislosť, ktorá zasahovala do jeho schopnosti zmysluplne prispievať. "The Rolling Stones" majú odhadovaný predaj nahrávok na úrovni 200 miliónov, čo z nich robí jedného z najpredávanejších hudobných umelcov všetkých čias. Kapela získala tri ceny Grammy a cenu Grammy za celoživotné dielo. V roku 1989 ich uviedli do Rokenrolovej siene slávy a v roku 2004 do Britskej hudobnej siene slávy. Časopis Billboard a Rolling Stones zaradili skupinu medzi jednu z najväčších všetkých čias.
The Rolling Stones sa vydali na „Licks World Tour“ v rokoch 2002 a 2003, aby oslávili svoje 40. výročie, pričom skupina vystupovala v arénach a na štadiónoch, okrem príležitostných divadelných predstavení – celkovo skľučujúcich 117 vystúpení. V novembri 2002 dorazili Stones do Los Angeles, aby vystúpili v preplnenom divadle Wiltern Theatre, kde fanúšikovia pohostili súborom plným rarít, ktorí sa v takomto intímnom prostredí cítia ako doma. Zatiaľ čo zazneli niektoré z hitov, táto noc vo Wilterne patrila zriedka hraným klasikám vrátane „Stray Cat Blues“, „No Expectations“ a cover verzie „Everybody Needs Somebody To Love“ s hosťom od legendárneho Solomona. Burke, ktorý tú noc otvoril predstavenie. Nižšie si môžete pozrieť úvodný trailer k Live At The Wiltern.

Kniha prináša ich pôsobivé príbehy o tom, ako im poznanie Tajomstva pomohlo zbaviť sa chorôb, získať bohatstvo, prekonať prekážky a dosiahnuť veci, ktoré by mnohí považovali
za nemožné.
Vo svojich rukách držíte
Veľké tajomstvo…
Prahli po ňom mnohí. Po stáročia ho podávali ďalej, ukrývali, strácali, kradli a kupovali za obrovské sumy peňazí. Dávnym Tajomstvom sa dali viesť mnohé významné osobnosti našich dejín: Platón, Galileo, Beethoven, Edison, Carnegie, Einstein... a vynálezcovia, teológovia, vedci a slávni myslitelia. Teraz je Tajomstvo odhalené celému svetu.
„Ako sa budete prehrýzať knihou a oboznamovať s Tajomstvom, dozviete sa, ako sa môžete stať, čím len chcete a dostať či robiť všetko, po čom zatúžite. Dozviete sa, kto naozaj ste. A zistíte, aká veľkoleposť vás v živote čaká.“

"The Rolling Stones" vydávajú po osemnástich rokoch nový album. Legendárna kapela The Rolling Stones nevydala nový album od roku 2005. To sa tento rok rozhodli zmeniť a vydávajú album Hackney Diamonds. Pravdepodobne najočakávanejšia nahrávka tohto roku vyjde už 20. októbra a vtedy Mick Jagger, Keith Richards a Ronnie Wood predstavia svetu 12 nových piesní, ktoré nahrávali po celom svete, vrátane preslávených štúdií v Los Angeles, Londýne, na Bahamách alebo v New Yorku.
