The End Of The End Of The Earth
A sharp and provocative new essay collection from the award-winning author of Freedom and The Corrections
In The End of the End of the Earth, which gathers essays and speeches written mostly in the past five years, Jonathan Franzen returns with renewed vigour to the themes - both human and literary - that have long preoccupied him. Whether exploring his complex relationship with his uncle, recounting his young adulthood in New York, or offering an illuminating look at the global seabird crisis, these pieces contain all the wit and disabused realism that we've come to expect from Franzen.
Taken together, these essays trace the progress of a unique and mature mind wrestling with itself, with literature and with some of the most important issues of our day, made more pressing by the current political milieu. The End of the End of the Earth is remarkable, provocative and necessary.

Lacná kniha Tři mušketýři (-90%)
V 70. letech byla Ostrava pro komiks přímo iniciačním centrem. Vycházela zde Výprava ze Sixie kreslená Kájou Saudkem, Foglarovy Rychlé šípy a zcela v duchu své průbojnosti nastupovali Tři mušketýři. V době, kdy politická diskuse a názorová konkurence přestávala existovat a ventil odpouštějící společenské napětí byl situován do divadélek malé scény, kabaretů a magazínů, bylo věcí cti i zde parafrázovat absurditu doby. Tři mušketýři pak zcela v intencích zamýšlené parafráze byli optimálním tématem pro ironickou kresbu mladého talentovaného kreslíře Antonína Šplíchala. Naznačovat, že jeho d’Artagnan měl Dubčekovy rysy, by bylo ovšem značně odvážné. Osud tohoto komiksu je však podstatně více tristní než Saudkem nedokončená Výprava ze Sixie. V květnovém čísle Ostravského kulturního zpravodaje 1972 vyšly pouze první dvě strany tohoto čtyřiadvacetistránkového seriálu. Jako nekulturní byly kreslené seriály následně okamžitě zakázány a Tři mušketýry od té doby už nikdo neviděl. Pro všechny příznivce, znalce a milovníky komiksu vydáváme nyní poprvé celý příběh Tří mušketýrů alespoň v limitovaném vydání bez možnosti dotisku. Dokonale představují styl Šplíchalovy tehdejší tvorby s nuancemi kresby a la prima, jistotou linky a originalitou výrazu. Původní předlohy byly zhotoveny ve formátu A2 technikou akvarelu, kresebné kontury černou tuší. Nepravidelné členění obrazových polí, přesahy a vazby mezi nimi včetně barevného kontrapunktu – to vše vytváří unikátní charakter těchto originálů, dnes pro komiksovou tvorbu používanou digitální technikou nedosažitelný a nenapodobitelný.

Lame of Thrones
A loving but take-no-prisoners (grant them full amnesty) send-up of the beloved book and television franchise, Lame of Thrones will do for Game of Thrones what Nightlight and The Hunger Pains did for Twilight and The Hunger Games, offering fans a way of reentering the fictional world they have come to love and exploding all of its conventions-as well as their expectations of the characters-to hilarious ends. This side-splitting gut-busting laugh-tastic rib-tickling make-you-laugh ha-ha parody may just even leave you more satisfied than the actual ending of Game of Thrones. And in addition to fancy-shmancy satisfaction, this book will also leave you with something way more important-something no book ever has been able to achieve: gratuitous sex and violence that is somehow more graphic than the sex and violence on the TV version of Game of Thrones.
Lame of Thrones will take you to Westopolis, where several different extremely attractive egomaniacs are vying to be ruler of the realm and sit on the Pointy Chair. Our hero Jon Dough was a likely bet, but the untimely murder of him by his own men of the Night's Crotch has made that seem less likely. However, Smellisandre, a witch who has the uncannily convenient ability to bring people back to life is also conveniently located in the same room as Jon's corpse, so maybe she'll do something about it? Will Dragon Queen Dennys Grandslam escape from her Clothkakhi captors and return to conquer the world? Or will she just get left in the desert for the rest of the books, counting grains of sand? And what about Jon Dough's siblings Bland Snark, who's off training with the Pink Eyed Raven, and Malarya Snark, who's off training with the Tasteless Men? Will they be mentioned? Probably? Almost definitely, yes? It would be weird if they weren't prominent characters in the book, you say? To find out, read the book you wish George R.R.
Martin would write, aka the book that brought The Harvard Lampoon out of publishing retirement-after five years of wandering the wasteland of the internet-ready to serve parody notice to Game of Thrones, one of the most popular book and television franchises of the past two decades.

The Sum of Us
What would make a society drain its public swimming baths and fill them with concrete rather than opening them to everyone? Economics researcher Heather McGhee sets out across America to learn why white voters so often act against their own interests. Why do they block changes that would help them, and even destroy their own advantages, whenever people of colour also stand to benefit?
Their tragedy is that they believe they can't win unless somebody else loses. But this is a lie. McGhee marshals overwhelming economic evidence, and a profound well of empathy, to reveal the surprising truth: even racists lose out under white supremacy.
And US racism is everybody's problem. As McGhee shows, it was bigoted lending policies that laid the ground for the 2008 financial crisis. There can be little prospect of tackling global climate change until America's zero-sum delusions are defeated. The Sum of Us offers a priceless insight into the workings of prejudice, and a timely invitation to solidarity among all humans, 'to piece together a new story of who we could be to one another'.

This is what this book brings you: you support climate protection, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn.

This often results in involuntary inner and outer isolation, which affects people of all ages - from the single person in the home office to the retiree without a family. This sounds absurd in an age of unimagined leisure opportunities. Even the Internet can only be recommended as a tool to a limited extent, because lonely people in particular can very well lose themselves here.

This book shows how to succeed in spite of this. We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance.

Conscious Communication
This is what this book brings you: You support climate protection, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because in our hectic, stressful world, we often do not treat each other carefully enough. This applies above all to the way we talk to each other: rashly we have quickly blocked out a piece of information or opinion, instead of thinking about the effect of what is said in advance. Yet mindful interaction with other people is the basic prerequisite for good understanding among ourselves and interpersonal relationships in general. Conscious communication is therefore the decisive factor for the success of a group or team. Emerging quarrels and disagreements can also be prevented or mediated in advance. This book shows what is important in this process. We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance.

The Power of Geography
'Quite simply, one of the best books about geopolitics you could imagine: reading it is like having a light shone on your understanding'
- Nicholas Lezard, Evening Standard, on Prisoners of Geography
If you want to understand what's happening in the world, look at a map.
Tim Marshall's global bestseller Prisoners of Geography showed how every nation's choices are limited by mountains, rivers, seas and concrete. Since then, the geography hasn't changed, but the world has.
In this revelatory new book, Marshall takes us into ten regions that are set to shape global politics and power. Find out why the Earth's atmosphere is the world's next battleground; why the fight for the Pacific is just beginning; and why Europe's next refugee crisis is closer than it thinks.
In ten chapters covering Australia, The Sahel, Greece, Turkey, the UK, Iran, Ethiopia, Saudi Arabia, Spain and Space, delivered with Marshall's trademark wit and insight, this is a lucid and gripping exploration of the power of geography to shape humanity's past, present - and future.
