Grisha trilógia 1: Shadow and Bone - Árnyék és csont
Alina Starkova sosem várt túl sokat az élettől.
A határháborúk során elveszítette a szüleit. Árvaként csupán egyvalakire számíthatott. Egy másik kis földönfutóra, Malra, a legjobb barátjára. Ám mostanra már ő sem lehet a támasza. Mindkettőjüket besorozták hazájuk, Ravka anyácska hadseregébe. A két fiatalnak életveszélyes küldetésre kell indulnia az Árnyzónába. Ezen az iszonyatos helyen a földöntúli sötétség az úr, ahol valósággal hemzsegnek az emberevő szörnyetegek.
Amikor támadás éri a katonai konvojukat, mindannyiuk élete veszélybe kerül. Ám Alina ekkor olyan titokzatos erőnek adja tanújelét, amiről mindaddig még ő sem tudott. Csodálatos megmenekülésük váratlan következményekkel jár. Meg sem áll a fővárosig, az uralkodó udvaráig, ahol az árva lány a Grisa testvériség tagja lesz. Vezetőjük, a titokzatos Éjúr úgy véli, Alina az, akire oly régóta vár Ravka sokat szenvedett népe. A legfőbb varázsló szerint az Alinában rejtőző erő képes lesz elpusztítani az Árnyzónát.
A cári udvar fényűző forgatagában sokan az Éjúr új kegyeltjének tartják a lányt, aki csak nehezen tud beilleszkedni Mal nélkül. Miközben hazája egyre nagyobb ves10200zélybe kerül, feltárul előtte egy hajmeresztő összeesküvés. Döntenie kell. Szembeszáll a birodalom leghatalmasabb nagyuraival?
Egyedül a múltja adhat reményt...
Mert csupán ez az árva lány mentheti meg a jövőt.

Paycheck and Other Classic Stories by Philip K. Dick
With a Preface by the Author and an Introduction by Roger Zelazny "The collected stories of Philip K. Dick are awe inspiring." --"The Washington Post" Readers worldwide consider Philip K. Dick to have been the greatest science fiction writer on any planet. Since his untimely death in 1982, interest in Dick's works has continued to mount, and his reputation has been enhanced by a growing body of critical attention. The Philip K. Dick Award is now presented annually to a distinguished work of science fiction, and the Philip K. Dick Society is devoted to the study and promulgation of his works. This collection draws from the writer's earliest short and medium-length fiction (including several previously unpublished stories), written during the years 1952-1955, and features such fascinating stories as "Paycheck " (adapted as a major motion picture starring Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman), "Beyond Lies the Wub, The Short Happy Life of the Brown Oxford, The Variable Man," and many others. Here, readers will find Dick's initial explorations of the themes he so brilliantly brought to life in his later work. Dick won the prestigious Hugo Award for the best novel of 1963 for "The Man in the High Castle." In the last year of his life, the film Blade Runner was made from his novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" More recently, Dick's short story "The Minority Report " inspired Steven Spielberg's movie of the same title. The classic stories of Philip K. Dick offer an intriguing glimpse into the imagination of one of science fiction's most enduring and respected names. "Philip K. Dick's best books always describe a future that is both entirely recognizable and utterly unimaginable." --"The New York Times Book Review" "More than anyone else in the field, Mr. Dick really puts you inside people's minds." --"The Wall Street Journal"

Pride and Prejudice - Pýcha a předsudek
When Elizabeth Bennet first meets eligible bachelor Mr Darcy, she finds him proud and aloof. He also seems indifferent to her, despite her good looks and vivacious wit. And when she discovers that Darcy has involved himself in the troubled relationship between his friend Bingley and her beloved sister Jane, Elizabeth is determined to dislike him more than ever. As misunderstandings grow, scandal breaks out and romance blossoms. Both Elizabeth and Darcy come to understand the folly of their prejudices and learn that first impressions may not always be reliable.
Když se Elizabeth Bennetová poprvé setká s panem Darcym, starým mládencem a zároveň výhodnou partií, zdá se jí nafoukaný a odtažitý. A také lhostejný k její osobě, přestože je Elizabeth hezká, temperamentní a bystrá. Když Elizabeth navíc zjistí, že se Darcy zapletl do komplikovaného vztahu svého přítele Bingleyho a její milované sestry Jane, její antipatie vůči němu jen vzrostou. Dochází k řadě nedorozumění a vypukne skandál, ale přitom také rozkvete láska. Elizabeth i Darcy pochopí pošetilost svých předsudků a poučí se, že první dojem nemusí být vždycky ten správný.

Too Much and Never Enough
In this revelatory, authoritative portrait of Donald J. Trump and the toxic family that made him, Mary L. Trump, a trained clinical psychologist and Donald's only niece, shines a bright light on the dark history of their family in order to explain how her uncle became the man who now threatens the world's health, economic security and social fabric.
Mary Trump spent much of her childhood in her grandparents' large, imposing house in New York, where Donald and his four siblings grew up. She describes a nightmare of traumas, destructive relationships and a tragic combination of neglect and abuse. She explains how specific events and general family patterns created the damaged man who currently occupies the Oval Office, including the strange and harmful relationship between Fred Trump and his two oldest sons, Fred Jr. and Donald.
A first-hand witness, Mary brings an incisive wit and unexpected humour to sometimes grim, often confounding family events. She recounts in unsparing detail everything from her uncle Donald's place in the family spotlight and Ivana's penchant for regifting to her grandmother's frequent injuries and illnesses and the appalling way Donald, Fred Trump's favourite son, dismissed and derided him when he began to succumb to Alzheimer's.
Numerous pundits, armchair psychologists and journalists have sought to explain Donald Trump's lethal flaws. Mary Trump has the education, insight and intimate familiarity needed to reveal what makes Donald, and the rest of her clan, tick. She alone can recount this fascinating, unnerving saga, not just because of her insider's perspective but also because she is the only Trump willing to tell the truth about one of the world's most powerful and dysfunctional families.

Power, People and Profits
From Nobel Prize-winning economist and bestselling author Joseph Stiglitz, this account of the dangers of free market fundamentalism reveals what has gone so wrong, but also shows us a way out. We all have the sense that our economy tilts toward big business, but as Joseph E. Stiglitz explains in People, Power and Profits, a few corporations have come to dominate entire sectors, contributing to skyrocketing inequality and slow growth.
This is how the financial industry has managed to write its own regulations, tech companies have accumulated reams of personal data with little oversight, and government has negotiated trade deals that fail to represent the best interests of workers. Too many have made their wealth through exploitation of others rather than through wealth creation. If something isn't done, new technologies may make matters worse, increasing inequality and unemployment.
Stiglitz identifies the true sources of wealth and increases in standards of living, based on learning, advances in science and technology, and the rule of law. He shows that the assault on the judiciary, universities, and the media undermines the very institutions that have long been the foundation of economic prosperity and democracy. Helpless though we may feel today, we are far from powerless.
In fact, the economic solutions are often quite clear. We need to exploit the benefits of markets while taming their excesses, making sure that markets work for people and not the other way around. If enough rally behind this agenda for change, we can create a progressive capitalism that will recreate a shared prosperity.
Stiglitz shows how a decent middle-class life can once again be attainable by all.

Miluj bližního svého - Love and War
Novela indického autora Sumita Mullicka, která vychází ve dvojjazyčném česko-anglickém vydání, je prvním vykročením tohoto zajímavého spisovatele mezi české čtenáře. Aby mohl být člověk píšícím rebelem, musí mít fantazii. Musí být rebelem s fantazií. Sumit Mullick je takovouto osobností. Zavádí nás do světa fantazie se zcela reálnými problémy, které však zobrazuje tak, že nás nutí současně se smát i bát.Novela Miluj bližního svého hovoří jakoby Čechům ze srdce. Čechům, z nichž většina ke svému životu nepotřebuje církev ani omezující zákony, ale o to víc si cení obyčejné lidské svobody a světských radostí. Kdyby ji napsal český autor, pobavili bychom se, ale fakt, že vzešla z pera indického spisovatele, který hovoří "naší řečí", jí dává neobvykle pikantní příchuť. Dostává se k nám touto formou poselství, nad nímž máme tendenci mávnout rukou, ale jež nás nutí k zamyšlení díky situacím vyhroceným ad absurdum, neumožňuje nám uniknout, buší nás do očí a křičí na nás ze stránek. Při čtení se budete velmi dobře bavit.Novela je původně součástí širšího souboru povídek s (do češtiny nepřeložitelným) názvem "Fairyish Tales", které jsou jakýmisi příběhy neskutečného skutečna. Titul Miluj bližního svého je první vlaštovkou z tohoto cyklu.Sumit Mullick o sobě: "Žiji v Indii, kde pracuji a píšu. Pocházím z Kalkaty, kde jsem strávil svá formující léta. Cítím, že Indie je pro psaní fantastickým místem. Indie, která je jak moderní, tak starodávná, a často lavíruje mezi těmi dvěma. To se pak projevuje v některých velmi legračních sociálních normách a zmatené definici morálky. Jako spisovatel věřím, že je mou zásadní povinností toto zmatení snižovat a napomáhat pochopení. Pochopení s sebou obvykle přináší pokrok a pokrok většinou přináší spokojenost."
