The Prophets
In this blinding debut, Robert Jones Jr. blends the lyricism of Toni Morrison with the vivid prose of Zora Neale Hurston to characterise the forceful, enduring bond of love, and what happens when brutality threatens the purest form of serenity.
The Halifax plantation is known as Empty by the slaves who work it under the pitiless gaze of its overseers and its owner, Massa Paul. Two young enslaved men, Samuel and Isaiah dwell among the animals they keep in the barn, helping out in the fields when their day is done. But the barn is their haven, a space of radiance and love - away from the blistering sun and the cruelty of the toubabs - where they can be alone together.
But, Amos - a fellow slave - has begun to direct suspicion towards the two men and their refusal to bend. Their flickering glances, unspoken words and wilful intention, revealing a truth that threatens to rock the stability of the plantation. And preaching the words of Massa Paul's gospel, he betrays them.
The culminating pages of The Prophets summon a choral voice of those who have suffered in silence, with blistering humanity, as the day of reckoning arrives at the Halifax plantation. Love, in all its permutations, is the discovery at the heart of Robert Jones Jr's breathtaking debut, The Prophets.

Všechno bylo nové
Kniha obsahuje soubor editovaných rozhovorů s aktéry polistopadové transformace české ekonomiky, s deseti muži a jednou ženou, který je nejen reflexí samotného transformačního období devadesátých let 20. století, ale také zajímavou ukázkou prolínání velkých dějin a osobních kariérních trajektorií. Rozhovory zachycují širokou paletu zkušeností, od nejvyšší, rozhodovací úrovně (Fond národního majetku, ministerstva) přes reflexe účastníků privatizačního procesu a "transformujících" se manažerů dříve socialistických podniků až po nové podnikatele, kteří se chopili příležitosti a stali se majiteli a zakladateli firem. Výpovědi pamětníků jsou doplněny metodologickou statí a interpretační kapitolou, jež sleduje některé ze strategií "vyrovnávání se s minulostí", tedy jak si narátoři udržují symbolický odstup od negativních jevů doprovázejících dnešní obecné povědomí o transformaci a privatizaci.

Lessons from Kafka
Kniha konfrontuje úvahy o díle Franze Kafky od třinácti autorek a autorů z šesti zemí a tří kontinentů. Kafkovo dílo je zde zkoumáno z perspektivy různých filozofických oborů: ontologie, epistemologie, filozofie jazyka, etiky, politické filozofie, filozofie literatury a estetiky. Formální a metodologická rozmanitost příspěvků je stejně bohatá: zahrnuje detailní interpretace vybraných Kafkových textů, analýzy charakteristických rysů rozpoznatelných napříč Kafkovým dílem, srovnání Kafky s jinými autory, diskuse s vlivnými kafkovskými interprety či úvahy o problému kafkovských adaptací. Texty jsou tematicky rozděleny do tří kapitol: Struktura světa a hranice poznání, Společenská realita a prostor morálního hodnocení a Fikční světy a způsoby vyprávění.
Kniha je v angličtině.
The book is conceived as an opportunity for thirteen authors from six countries and three continents to confront the lessons they draw from Kafkas work. They approach it from the perspectives of several philosophical disciplines: ontology, epistemology, philosophy of language, ethics, political philosophy, philosophy of literature, and aesthetics. The formal and methodological variety of their contributions is equally rich: it includes detailed interpretations of particular texts, analyses of characteristic features recognizable across Kafkas work, confrontations with other writers, disputes with influential Kafka interpreters, reopening the problem of Kafkian adaptations, etc. The articles are thematically divided into three chapters: The structure of the world and the limits of knowledge, Social reality and the space for moral assessment, and Fictional worlds and modes of narration.

The Silmarillion Illustrated edition
For the first time ever, a very special edition of the forerunner to The Lord of the Rings, illustrated throughout in colour by J.R.R. Tolkien himself and with the complete text printed in two colours. The Silmarilli were three perfect jewels, fashioned by Feanor, most gifted of the Elves, and within them was imprisoned the last Light of the Two Trees of Valinor.
But the first Dark Lord, Morgoth, stole the jewels and set them within his iron crown, guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. The Silmarillion is the history of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all the heroism, against the great Enemy. It is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part.
The book also includes several shorter works: the Ainulindale, a myth of the Creation, and the Valaquenta, in which the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Numenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien could not publish The Silmarillion in his lifetime, as it grew with him, so he would leave it to his son, Christopher Tolkien, to edit the work from many manuscripts and bring his father's great vision to publishable form, so completing the literary achievement of a lifetime.
This special edition presents anew this seminal first step towards mapping out the posthumous publishing of Middle-earth, and the beginning of an illustrious forty years and more than twenty books celebrating his father's legacy. This definitive new edition includes, by way of an introduction, a letter written by Tolkien in 1951 which provides a brilliant exposition of the earlier Ages, and for the first time in its history is presented with J.R.R. Tolkien's own paintings and drawings, which reveal the breathtaking grandeur and beauty of his vision of the First Age of Middle-earth.
Nehéz csontok
Bécs, 1938 márciusa. Ausztriát a Harmadik Birodalomhoz csatolják. Azon a napon, amikor a fél város a Heldenplatzon ünnepli az Anschlusst és a Führert, lakások „evakuálására" specializálódott, pitiáner, fiatal bűnözők kirabolnak egy hírhedt nácit. Amikor lebuknak, arra kényszerülnek, hogy hét éven át, a dachaui és a mauthauseni koncentrációs táborokban dolgozó kápókként igazi nehézfiúkká váljanak, és egyebek mellett azt is megtanulják, hogy az ember és az állat közötti különbség nem több puszta illúziónál. A háború után, a rommá bombázott osztrák fővárosba visszatérve, önvédelemre szakosodott vezéralakjuk, Ferdinand Krutzler irányítása alatt a banda addig nem látott brutalitással uralkodik a bécsi alvilág fölött. Hatalmukat nem utolsósorban arra használják, hogy egymás után eltegyék láb alól náci ellenfeleiket. Egyedülálló bűneposzában David Schalko a háború utáni bécsi társadalom velejéig romlott, színes tablóját festi meg bőséges fekete humorral és kellő empátiával. Regénye, amelyet valós események és személyek hiteles története inspirált, a nácizmus által megtépázott emberi lélekről ad lenyűgöző képet. David Schalko (1973) osztrák író, német nyelvterületen rendezőként, forgatókönyvíróként és filmes és televíziós alkotóként, valamint színészként és televíziós személyiségként meglehetős kultusznak örvend. Négy regénye és verseskötetei mellett nevéhez fűződik az elmúlt időszak néhány jelentős osztrák televíziós minisorozata és mozifilmje. Jelenleg épp a Nehéz csontok filmváltozatán dolgozik. „A Krutzler nem volt a szavak embere. Inkább a tetteké. Ha a Krutzler felszólított valakit, hogy üsse meg, akkor az illető tudta, mit kell tennie: örökre eltűnni a városból és soha többé nem odatolni a cifferblattját. Persze a Krutzler nem volt ijedős. Csak elvei voltak. Meg módszere. A Krutzler-féle torokszúrás nemcsak Bécsben váltott ki nagy furort. Híre egészen Hamburgig eljutott. És amikor a késről átállt a géppisztolyra, sokan mondták, hogy most már vége a Krutzlernak. Hogy leáldozott egy kornak.”
