Nothing Can Hurt You
On a cold day in 1997, student Sara Morgan was killed in the woods surrounding her liberal arts college in upstate New York. When suspicion falls on the person closest to her - her boyfriend, Blake - the case comes to haunt the friends, family and acquaintances of the couple in strange and unexpected ways. Some look for answers, while others are set on retribution; from the young woman who discovers the body to Sara's half-sister who, years later, seeks out her own form of justice.
A propulsive, taut tale of obsession and voyeurism, Nothing Can Hurt You pieces together a chorus of unforgettable voices to explore the far-reaching consequences of one single act of violence.

Jiri Hauschka
Jiří Hauschka (narozen 1965 v Šumperku) se obrací k tomu typu malířství, pro které jsou důležité barvy a symbolické konotace, tak jak tomu bylo na přelomu 19. a 20. století v tomto období se Jiří Hauschka vztahuje zejména ke kanadskému malíři Tomovi Thomsonovi, který žil v letech 1877 až 1917 či jak se děje v ateliérech soudobých autorů, jako jsou kupříkladu Daniel Richter nebo Peter Doig. Realita se proměňuje v malířské naraci na vrstevnaté vyprávění, kde se mísí umělecká paměť s novými zážitky, pohledy, touhami, citovými zjitřeními. V případě Jiřího Hauschky se ocitáme v divočině, v divočině malířské nostalgie, kde hledáme člověka, a v urbánní civilizaci, v té civilizaci, která je na pokraji svých možností a kde tak cítíme a vidíme barvy divočiny.
Autory textů jsou Martin Dostál a slovutný britský kunsthistorik Edward Lucie-Smith.
Jiří Hauschka (born 1965 in Šumperk) turns to this type of painting method that utilizes colours and symbolic connotations, prevalent at the turn of the 20th century he positions himself in that period next to the Canadian painter Tom Thomson (18771917) and used by contemporary painters such as Daniel Richter or Peter Doig. Reality is transformed by the painters narration into layered storytelling, where the artists memory is interspersed with new experiences, views, desires and emotional turbulences. In the case of Jiri Hauschka, we find ourselves in the wilderness of painter nostalgia, where we look for the conceptual person, and in urban civilization, which has barely any options left and where we can therefore feel and see the colours of wilderness.
The authors of the texts are Martin Dostál and the famous British art historian Edward Lucie-Smith.

Lacná kniha Evolution: A Very Short Introduction (-70%)
Less than 450 years ago, all European scholars believed that the earth was the centre of a universe that was at most a few million miles in extent, and that the planets, sun, and stars all rotated around this centre. Less than 250 years ago, they believed that the universe was created essentially in its present state about 6000 years ago. Less than 150 years ago, the special creation by God of living species was still dominant. The relentless application of the scientific method of inference from experiment and observation, without reference to religious, or governmental authority has completely transformed our view of our origins and relation to the universe, in less than 500 years. Few would dispute that this programme has been spectacularly successful, particularly in the twentieth century. This book is about the crucial role of evolutionary biology in transforming our view of human origins and relation to the universe, and the impact of this idea on traditional philosophy and religion.The purpose of this book is to introduce the general reader to some of the most important basic findings, concepts, and procedures of evolutionary biology, as it has developed since the first publications of Darwin and Wallace on the subject, over 140 years ago. Evolution provides a unifying set of principals for the whole of biology; it also illuminates the relation of human beings to the universe and each other. In addition, many aspects of evolution have practical importance; for instance, the rapid evolution of resistance by bacteria to antibiotics and of HIV to antiviral drugs are pressing medical problems.

The pair agree that Finn should go to Mallorca and tactfully take possession of their inheritance. When he arrives, however, Finn is surprised to find that Finca Siquia has been completely transformed into a chic Mediterranean bolthole by Ruensa and her twenty-seven-year-old daughter, Roze. The Spanish police, meanwhile, are asking awkward questions about Jimmy's death . . .
Are Ruensa and Roze the helpless victims of circumstance? Or will they stop at nothing to get Finca Siquia for themselves?

Definition of dark academia in English:
dark academia
1. An internet subculture concerned with higher education, the arts, and literature, or an idealised version thereof with a focus on the pursuit of knowledge and an exploration of death.
2. A set of aesthetic principles. Scholarly with a gothic edge – tweed blazers, vintage cardigans, scuffed loafers, a worn leather satchel full of brooding poetry. Enthusiasts are usually found in museums and darkened libraries.
The Sailor Who Fell from Grace With the Sea
VINTAGE JAPANESE CLASSICS - five masterpieces of Japanese fiction in gorgeous new gift editions.
A band of savage thirteen-year-old boys reject the adult world as illusory, hypocritical, and sentimental, and train themselves in a brutal callousness they call 'objectivity'. When the mother of one of them begins an affair with a ship's officer, he and his friends idealise the man at first; but it is not long before they conclude that he is in fact soft and romantic. They regard this disillusionment as an act of betrayal on his part - and the retribution is deliberate and horrifying.
