Warhol After Warhol
Long-time art critic Richard Dorment reveals the corruption and lies of the art world, and its mystifying authentication processLate one afternoon in the winter of 2003 art critic Richard Dorment answered a telephone call from a stranger. The caller was Joe Simon, an American film producer and art collector. He was ringing at the suggestion of David Hockney, his neighbour in Malibu. A committee of experts called the Andy Warhol Art Authentication Board had declared the two Warhols in his collection to be fake. He wanted to know why and thought Dorment could help.
This call would mark the beginning of an extraordinary story that would play out over the next ten years and would involve a cast of characters straight out of fiction. From rock icons and film stars; art dealers and art forgers; to a murdered Russian oligarch and a lawyer for the mob; from courtrooms to auction houses: all took part in a bitter struggle to prove the authenticity of a series of paintings by the most famous American artist of the 20th century.
Part detective story, part art history, part memoir, part courtroom drama, Warhol After Warhol is a spellbinding account of the dark connection between money, power and art.
Biffy Clyro - The Myth Of The Happily Ever After 2CD
KDO: Biffy Clyro jsou jedním z nejúspěšnějších reprezentantů britského rocku posledních let. Prosluli divokými koncerty i hodnotnými studiovými nahrávkami, jejich styl je syrový a úderný. Mohou se pyšnit řadou cen i zajímavých nominací (např. různá ocenění hudebních časopisů NME, Q či Kerrang, prestižní Mercury Prize v roce 2010 nebo Brit Awards 2011), ostrovní média je milují. Několikrát hráli také v Čechách a jejich vystoupení vždy patřilo k zásadním koncertním zážitkům. Fungují v podstatě už od roku 1995. Debutovali v roce 2002 albem Blackened Sky, které si stejně jako dvě následující vydali sami. Později přestoupili k velkému vydavatelství.
CO: O nahrávce The Myth Of The Happily Ever After skupina mluví jako o sesterském albu desky A Celebration Of Endings. Některé skladby měla kapela složené už v roce 2020, další dopsala v době, kdy měla koncertní pauzu vynucenou koronavirovou pandemií. Součástí vydání je navíc i koncertní záznam z Barrowland Ballroom.

After I Do
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, comes a breath taking novel about modern marriage, the depth of family ties, and the year that one remarkable heroine spends exploring both.
When Lauren and Ryan's marriage reaches the breaking point, they come up with an unconventional plan. They decide to take a year off in the hopes of finding a way to fall in love again. One year apart, and only one rule: they cannot contact each other. Aside from that, anything goes.
Lauren embarks on a journey of self-discovery, quickly finding that her friends and family have their own ideas about the meaning of marriage. These influences, as well as her own healing process and the challenges of living apart from Ryan, begin to change Lauren's ideas about monogamy and marriage. She starts to question: When you can have romance without loyalty and commitment without marriage, when love and lust are no longer tied together, what do you value? What are you willing to fight for?
This is a love story about what happens when the love fades. It's about staying in love, seizing love, forsaking love, and committing to love with everything you've got. And above all, After I Do is the story of a couple caught up in an old game-and searching for a new road to happily ever after.
Ophelia After All
A teen girl navigates friendship drama, the end of high school, and discovering her queerness in Ophelia After All, the hilarious and heartfelt contemporary YA debut by Racquel Marie.
Ophelia Rojas knows what she likes: her best friends, Cuban food, rose-gardening, and boys - way too many boys. Her friends and parents make fun of her endless stream of crushes, but Ophelia is a romantic at heart. She couldn't change, even if she wanted to.
So when she finds herself thinking more about cute, quiet Talia Sanchez than the loss of a perfect prom with her ex-boyfriend, seeds of doubt take root in Ophelia's firm image of herself. Add to that the impending end of high school and the fracturing of her once-solid friend group, and things are spiraling a little out of control. But the course of love - and sexuality - never did run smooth. As her secrets begin to unravel, Ophelia must make a choice between clinging to the fantasy version of herself she's always imagined or upending everyone's expectations to rediscover who she really is, after all.

Writing after Art
A broad and deep anthology of critic and art historian Richard Shiff’s most influential writings, which have shaped our understanding of twentieth- and twenty-first-century art.
In his engaging and often strikingly deep observations of major modern and contemporary visual art, Shiff has written about an impressive range of artists, including Willem de Kooning, Marlene Dumas, Jasper Johns, Donald Judd, Barnett Newman, Pablo Picasso, and Bridget Riley. A leading scholar and powerful voice, Shiff’s insight into some of the most prominent artistic practices spans generation, place, and approach as seen in this considered selection of essays on twenty-six artists.
These writings first appeared in exhibition catalogues for retrospectives at galleries and institutions including the Centre Georges Pompidou, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, The Museum of Modern Art, and Tate Modern. Shiff supplements his unquestionable fluency in art history with insights cultivated from his readings in philosophy, phenomenology, literary theory, and psychoanalysis, among other fields. Shiff’s writing—conceptually rich, meditative, and enjoyable to read—is attuned to the nuances of artistic style and technique, drawing out art’s social implications not merely from broad histories but also directly from artists’ mark making and technical gestures. Actively engaged as a viewer and a writer, Shiff has transformed the act of looking at art into contemplative and captivating writing.
Includes essays on Georg Baselitz, Mark Bradford, Georges Braque, Jim Campbell, Chuck Close, Willem de Kooning, Peter Doig, Marlene Dumas, Dan Flavin, Suzan Frecon, Lucian Freud, Ellen Gallagher, Jasper Johns, Donald Judd, Ellsworth Kelly, Brice Marden, Julie Mehretu, Barnett Newman, Pablo Picasso, Bridget Riley, Richard Serra, Joel Shapiro, Richard Tuttle, Cy Twombly, Jack Whitten, and Zeng Fanzhi.
Young Neil - After The Gold Rush (50th Anniversary Edition) CD
KDO: Neil Young je zásadní postava nejen americké rockové historie. Invenční kytarista, skladatel, zpěvák a dnes už také podnikatel v hudebním průmyslu inspiroval celou řadu následovníků. Působil v kapelách Shadows a Buffalo Springfiled, v uskupení Crosby, Still, Nash & Young, ale především se proslavil jako sólový muzikant. Je označován za jednoho z největších rock'n'rollových interpretů a nejrespektovanějších kytaristů.
CO: Výroční reedice třetí sólové desky kanadského rockového hudebníka Neila Younga. Album vyšlo v roce 1970 a je jedním ze čtveřice sólových počinů, které vydávají jednotlivě pánové Crosby, Stills, Nash a Young ve stejné době, kdy jejich společné album Déj? Vu slavilo velký komerční úspěch. Gold Rush je převážně folkově a country laděné album, výjimkou je rocková píseň Southern Man. After the Gold Rush se vyšplhala na osmé místo žebříčku Billboard Top Pop Albums. Z alba byly použity dvě písně jako singly: Only Love Can Break Your Heart a When You Dance I Can Really Love. První z nich se umístila na 33. místě a druhá na 93 místě v Billboard Hot 100.

A World after Liberalism
In this eye-opening book, Matthew Rose introduces us to one of the most controversial intellectual movements of the twentieth century, the "radical right," and discusses its adherents' different attempts to imagine political societies after the death or decline of liberalism. Rose shows how such thinkers are animated by religious aspirations and anxieties that are ultimately in tension with Christian teachings and the secular values those teachings birthed in modernity.

India After Gandhi, 3rd edition
An updated edition of Ramachandra Guha's India After Gandhi with new material that explains the major events, policy shifts and controversies of the past decade, placing them in their proper sociological and historical context and setting out the author's justifiable concerns for the decline of democracy in India.
Born against a background of privation and civil war, divided along lines of caste, class, language and religion, independent India emerged, somehow, as a united and democratic country. Ramachandra Guha’s hugely acclaimed book tells the full story – the pain and the struggle, the humiliations and the glories – of the world’s largest and least likely democracy.
While India is sometimes the most exasperating country in the world, it is also the most interesting. Ramachandra Guha writes compellingly of the myriad protests and conflicts that have peppered the history of free India. Moving between history and biography, the story of modern India is peopled with extraordinary characters. Guha gives fresh insights into the lives and public careers of those long-serving Prime Ministers, Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi. But the book also writes with feeling and sensitivity about lesser-known (though not necessarily less important) Indians – peasants, tribals, women, workers and musicians.
Massively researched and elegantly written, India After Gandhi is a remarkable account of India’s rebirth, and a work already hailed as a masterpiece of single-volume history. This third edition brings the story fully up to date.

But she’s barely moved into her freshman dorm when she runs into Hardin Scott, with his tousled brown hair, cocky British accent, and tattoos.

For all his attitude and insults, Tessa should hate Hardin, and she does – until something about his dark mood grabs her, and it’s only a matter of time before he ignites a passion in her that she’s never known before.
He will call her beautiful, then insist he’s not the one for her, making excuses and disappearing, again and again. He’ll turn away from her, yet when she tries to push him aside, he’ll only pull her in deeper. Despite the reckless way Hardin treats her, Tessa is drawn to his vulnerability and determined to unmask the real Hardin beneath all the lies.
