Lacná kniha TS 6 Veľká Fatra, Kremnické vrchy - poľ. (-90%)
Šiestym titulom edície S batohom po Slovensku je Veľká Fatra Kremnické vrchy (č. 6). Veľká Fatra ležiaca na rozhraní stredného a severozápadného Slovenska je vyhľadávanou rekreačnou oblasťou v zime (vďaka lyžiarskym strediskám) ako aj v lete (vďaka
turistike v dolinách a na hrebeni a kultúrno-historickým pamiatkam v podhorí). Najväčším bohatstvom pohoria Veľká Fatra sú zachované prírodné lesy a pralesy karpatského typu, predovšetkým so smrekom, jedľou a bukom. Unikátom je Harmanecká tisina, kd
e je najväčší výskyt tisu obyčajného v Európe. Pre Veľkú Fatru sú charakteristické dlhé kaňonovité doliny, napríklad Belianska, Jasenská, Gaderská, Blatnická či Žarnovická. Východiskami pre pešiu turistiku sú viaceré mestá v podhorí a turistické chat
y stojace na hrebeni. Pamiatková rezervácia ľudovej architektúry Vlkolínec je zapísaná v Zozname svetového kultúrneho a prírodného dedičstva UNESCO. Sprievodcu dopĺňajú aj túry z Kremnických vrchov. Výrezy turistických máp s priebehom jednotlivých tr
ás dopĺňajú základný text, nechýbajú ani register najvýznamnejších turistických bodov a praktické informácie.

The New Yorker Book of the 60s
The next instalment in the acclaimed New Yorker 'decades' series featuring an all-star line-up of historical pieces from the 1960s alongside new pieces by current New Yorker staffers. The 1960s, the most tumultuous decade of the twentieth century, were a time of tectonic shifts in all aspects of society - from the March on Washington and the Second Vatican Council to the Summer of Love and Woodstock. No magazine chronicled the immense changes of the period better than The New Yorker. This capacious volume includes historic pieces from the magazine's pages that brilliantly capture the sixties, set alongside new assessments by some of today's finest writers. Here are real-time accounts of these years of turmoil: Calvin Trillin reports on the integration of Southern universities, E. B. White and John Updike wrestle with the enormity of the Kennedy assassination and Jonathan Schell travels with American troops into the jungles of Vietnam. The murder of Martin Luther King, Jr., the fallout of the 1968 Democratic Convention, the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, the Six-Day War: all are brought to immediate and profound life in these pages.The New Yorker of the 1960s was also the wellspring of some of the truly timeless works of American journalism. Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, Hannah Arendt's Eichmann in Jerusalem and James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time all first appeared in The New Yorker and are featured here. The magazine also published such indelible short story masterpieces as John Cheever's 'The Swimmer' and John Updike's 'A & P', alongside poems by Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton. The arts underwent an extraordinary transformation during the decade, one mirrored by the emergence in The New Yorker of critical voices as arresting as Pauline Kael and Kenneth Tynan. Among the crucial cultural figures profiled here are Simon & Garfunkel, Tom Stoppard, Bob Dylan, Allen Ginsberg, Cassius Clay (before he was Muhammad Ali), and Mike Nichols and Elaine May. The assembled pieces are given fascinating contemporary context by current New Yorker writers, including Jill Lepore, Malcolm Gladwell and David Remnick. The result is an incomparable collective portrait of a truly galvanising era. With contributions from: Truman Capote, John Updike, E.B.White, Rachel Carson, James Baldwin, Jonathan Schell, Dwight Macdonald, Renata Adler, Hannah Arendt, Pauline Kael, AJ Liebling, Nat Hentoff, Calvin Trillin, Xavuer Rynne, John McPhee, Anthony Hiss and more.

Secondhand Time
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The magnum opus and latest work from Svetlana Alexievich, the 2015 winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature--a symphonic oral history about the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the emergence of a new Russia NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND PUBLISHERS WEEKLY - LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE WINNER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times - The Washington Post - The Boston Globe - The Wall Street Journal - NPR - Financial Times - Kirkus Reviews When the Swedish Academy awarded Svetlana Alexievich the Nobel Prize, it cited her for inventing "a new kind of literary genre," describing her work as "a history of emotions--a history of the soul." Alexievich's distinctive documentary style, combining extended individual monologues with a collage of voices, records the stories of ordinary women and men who are rarely given the opportunity to speak, whose experiences are often lost in the official histories of the nation. In Secondhand Time, Alexievich chronicles the demise of communism. Everyday Russian citizens recount the past thirty years, showing us what life was like during the fall of the Soviet Union and what it's like to live in the new Russia left in its wake. Through interviews spanning 1991 to 2012, Alexievich takes us behind the propaganda and contrived media accounts, giving us a panoramic portrait of contemporary Russia and Russians who still carry memories of oppression, terror, famine, massacres--but also of pride in their country, hope for the future, and a belief that everyone was working and fighting together to bring about a utopia. Here is an account of life in the aftermath of an idea so powerful it once dominated a third of the world. A magnificent tapestry of the sorrows and triumphs of the human spirit woven by a master, Secondhand Time tells the stories that together make up the true history of a nation. "Through the voices of those who confided in her," The Nation writes, "Alexievich tells us about human nature, about our dreams, our choices, about good and evil--in a word, about ourselves." Praise for Svetlana Alexievich and Secondhand Time "The nonfiction volume that has done the most to deepen the emotional understanding of Russia during and after the collapse of the Soviet Union of late is Svetlana Alexievich's oral history Secondhand Time."--David Remnick, The New Yorker "Like the greatest works of fiction, Secondhand Time is a comprehensive and unflinching exploration of the human condition. . . . In its scope and wisdom, Secondhand Time is comparable to War and Peace."--The Wall Street Journal "Already hailed as a masterpiece across Europe, Secondhand Time is an intimate portrait of a country yearning for meaning after the sudden lurch from Communism to capitalism in the 1990s plunged it into existential crisis."--The New York Times "This is the kind of history, otherwise almost unacknowledged by today's dictatorships, that matters."--The Christian Science Monitor "In this spellbinding book, Svetlana Alexievich orchestrates a rich symphony of Russian voices telling their stories of love and death, joy and sorrow, as they try to make sense of the twentieth century."--J. M. Coetzee

Complete Cartoons of the New Yorker
What could be better than a gigantic 656-page collection of 2,004 (get it?) of the best cartoons published in the New Yorker over the last 80 years? Perhaps a double CD set with all 68,647 cartoons ever published in the magazine—complete with a nifty search function that allows readers to search for cartoons by year of publication or by cartoonist's name. This improbably large offering is a bonanza of wry Manhattan-centric comic commentary on urban life and much else in American culture over the years. There's Peter Arno's 1948 ink-and-wash cartoon of a mildly concerned matron, book in hand, asking her newspaper-reading husband, "Is there a Mrs. Kinsey?" Or Peter Steiner's now famous cartoon drawing of two dogs chatting in front of a computer. "On the Internet," says one canine to the other, "nobody knows you're a dog." The book offers an introduction by New Yorker editor David Remnick and short essays introducing each decade—which readers may want to read after perusing the cartoons first—by such New Yorker luminaries as Roger Angell, Lillian Ross and John Updike. This is an absolutely fabulous collection of sophisticated silliness that will soon take its rightful place on coffee tables all over the country.

Čarovný Žiar nad Hronom a okolie/ Magical Žiar nad Hronom and Its Surroundings
Žiarska kotlina, cez ktorú preteká mohutný Hron a obklopujú ju zalesnené kopce a pohoria, ukrýva v sebe miesta s bohatou a neuveriteľnou históriou. Pohoria ako Kremnické vrchy, Vtáčnik, Štiavnické vrchy a stovky ďalších vrcholov v diaľke dotvárajú majstrovské dielo tejto Pánom Bohom pobozkanej oblasti. Mestá Žiar nad Hronom a Kremnica spolunažívajú v tesnej blízkosti už po stáročia a svojou inakosťou sa čarovne dopĺňajú. Obe majú za sebou bohatú históriu, na ktorú môžu s láskou spomínať. Zlatý vek kremnického baníctva vystriedal zlatý vek žiarskeho hutníctva. Rozprávkové územie dotvára majestátny Šášovský hrad, ktorý z kopca dozerá na obe mestá. Podľa legendy ho dal postaviť kráľ svojmu dvornému šašovi ako výraz vďaky za záchranu života na poľovačke. Žiar nad Hronom a Kremnicu skrášľujú aj historické kostoly či kaštiele, ktorých tu veru nie je málo. Medzi unikáty patrí rímskokatolícky Kostol povýšenia Svätého kríža v Žiari nad Hronom či biskupský kaštieľ, ktorý víta návštevníkov pri vstupe do mesta. V Kremnici to je zas Kostol svätej Kataríny v areáli mestského hradu, dominujúci vari každému pohľadu na historické námestie. Určite sa oplatí navštíviť aj žiarsku hvezdáreň či hudobný festival City Fest. Kremnicu zas kultúrne obohacujú Kremnické Gagy. Za vyše štyri desaťročia sa stali ďalším symbolom mesta. Nazrite s nami prostredníctvom fotografií do skutočného sveta rozprávok. Čarovných a magických miest je v Žiari nad Hronom a jeho okolí naozaj dosť.
