The Second Sex
'Everyone who cares about freedom and justice for women should read The Second Sex' Guardian
Simone de Beauvoir famously wrote, 'One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman'. In this groundbreaking work of feminism she examines the limits of female freedom and explodes our deeply ingrained beliefs about femininity. Liberation, she argues, entails challenging traditional perceptions of the social relationship between the sexes and, crucially, in achieving economic independence.
Drawing on sociology, anthropology and biology, The Second Sex is as important and relevant today as when it was first published in 1949.
The Second Sex
Vintage Feminism: classic feminist texts in short form. This book comes with an introduction by Natalie Haynes. When this book was first published in 1949 it was to outrage and scandal. Never before had the case for female liberty been so forcefully and successfully argued. De Beauvoir's belief that 'One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman' switched on light bulbs in the heads of a generation of women and began a fight for greater equality and economic independence. These pages contain the key passages of the book that changed perceptions of women forever.
Časy zo second handu, 2.vydanie
Čo sa stane s človekom, keď padne impérium? A čo sa stane so všetkou tou vierou, ktorú v sebe mali milióny? Vyparí sa? A dá sa vôbec zo dňa na deň začať veriť niečomu inému?
Časy zo second handu začínajú v gorbačovovskej ére a končia pri Lukašenkových manévroch v bieloruskom Minsku – je to teda tá najčerstvejšia história, ktorú bývalé sovietske impérium ponúka. Svetlana Alexijevič zavŕšila týmto dielom sériu kníh o osudoch a dejinách ruskej duše. Súčasťou knihy je aj rozsiahly osobný rozhovor Nataľje Irgunovovej, v ktorom Svetlana Alexijevič prezradí mnohé o svojej dlhoročnej intenzívnej práci, za ktorú ju v roku 2015 ocenila Švédska kráľovská akadémia Nobelovou cenou.
Second First Impressions
'A truly adorable, heart-warming, swoon-worthy love story' Beth O'Leary
The latest swoonworthy romcom from the bestselling author of TikTok sensation The Hating Game
First impressions aren't always what they seem . . .
Ruthie Midona is twenty-four (going on ninety-four) and fully committed to her job at a luxury retirement village. Keeping herself busy caring for the eccentric residents means that Ruthie can safely ignore her own life - what little there is of it.
Teddy Prescott is practically allergic to a hard day's work. When he rocks up as the retirement village's newest employee, Ruthie is less than impressed. The last thing she needs is a distraction as irritating (and handsome) as this selfish rich kid. Lucky for Ruthie, her favourite pair of mischievous residents need a new assistant to torture... so she hands over Teddy, ready for them to send him running.
Except Teddy may be about to surprise her - not just by surviving the old women's antics, but by charming Ruthie so much, she starts to remember that there's more to life than work.
And just maybe, her second first impression will lead to the love of a lifetime . . .
A Vow So Bold and Deadly
KINGDOMS WILL CLASH. CHOOSE YOUR SIDE. Grey has been revealed as the rightful prince of Emberfall.
But the kingdom is crumbling fast, torn between his claim and that of the reigning Prince Rhen and Princess Harper. Newly crowned as Queen of the enemy kingdom Syhl Shallow, Lia Mara struggles to rule with a gentler hand than her mother. But as Grey moves closer to claiming the crown of Emberfall, both Harper and Lia Mara are forced to question where they stand - and how far they can follow the dictates of their hearts.
Brigid Kemmerer's heart-pounding saga comes to a thrilling climax, as two kingdoms come closer and closer to conflict - and an old enemy resurfaces who could destroy them all.

Jeho banán
Můj nový šéf má rád pravidla. Jedno z nich si ale nikdo netroufne porušit... Nesmí se mu sahat na banán. Jako vážně. Tenhle chlápek je závislej na hořčíku nebo co. Jasně, že jsem si na něj sáhla. Jestli to chcete rozebírat do detailu, ve skutečnosti jsem si ho i strčila do pusy. A co je ještě horší? Sežvýkala jsem ho… a polkla. Já vím. Pěkně zlobivá holka. A pak jsem ho uviděla. Možná byste tomu nevěřili, ale když se člověk dusí něčím banánem, neudělá to na jeho majitele zrovna ten nejlepší první dojem.

Lacná kniha Short Second Life of Bree Tanner (-70%)
Fans of The Twilight Saga will be enthralled by the riveting story of Bree Tanner, a character introduced in Eclipse, and the darker side of the newborn vampire world she inhabits. In another irresistible combination of danger, mystery and romance, Stephenie Meyer tells the devastating story of Bree and the newborn army as they prepare to close in on Bella Swan and the Cullens, following their encounter to its unforgettable conclusion. 'I'm as surprised as anyone about this novella,' said Stephenie Meyer. 'When I began working on it in 2005, it was simply an exercise to help me examine the other side of Eclipse, which I was editing at the time. I thought it might end up as a short story that I could include on my website. Then, when work started on The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide, I thought the Guide would be a good fit for my Bree story. However, the story grew longer than I anticipated, until it was too long to fit into the Guide.'
