Román o míjení a mimoběžných cestách
Po mimořádně úspěšném románu Němci přichází Jakuba Katalpa s propracovaným mnohovrstevnatým románem
ze současnosti.
Květa je po manželově smrti sužována pocitem samoty a neužitečnosti. Ve sklepě svého domu proto vybuduje malou místnost — doupě — a čeká na návštěvníka, kterého by do ní mohla zavřít a vyprávět mu svůj životní příběh.
Zatímco Květa opečovává svého vězně, v Americe umírá na rakovinu Akiko Ikedaová.
Dochází sice na chemoterapii, ta však nezabírá a její manžel postupně ztrácí víru v manželčino uzdravení.
Anh Thi Hoang opouští rodný Vietnam a vydává se na dalekou cestu do Prahy, aby pomohl dceři s vedením domácnosti a malého obchodu. Naráží však na odcizení, nejen kulturní, ale také rodinné a generační.
Cesty protagonistů, jakkoliv jsou mimoběžné, se v jednom okamžiku protínají v Praze, aby pak nadále pokračovaly po své vlastní dráze. Všechny tři příběhy tak představují určitý druh míjení, nedorozumění a paralelnosti lidských osudů.

Počátek vítězství krále horního a dolního Egypta
Sv. 6: Šestý svazek řady Starověké písemnictví Levanty představuje čtenáři historický vývoj Levanty, a to prostřednictvím syntézy písemných pramenů a hmotné kultury. Ve své úvodní části předkládá kulturně-historický vhled do prostoru starověké Levanty, a to nejen prostřednictvím písemných pramenů, ale i skrze archeologickou výpověď. Všechny klíčové historické mezníky i zásadní společenské a kulturní fenomény jsou doplněny odkazy na konkrétní texty publikované v předchozích svazcích, a vytváří tak jakési vademecum dějin Levanty. Zvláštní pozornost je věnována vztahům Egypta a Chetitské říše, tedy mocností, které se zejména ve druhé polovině 2. tis. př. Kr. významně podílely na utváření dějinného i kulturního uspořádání Levanty. Třetí část knihy pak tvoří již tradičně koncipovaná komentovaná antologie, která má čtenáři usnadnit pochopení vybraných částí úvodního historického exkursu.

Walking - One Step at a Time
AN ODE TO WALKING FROM ONE OF THE WORLD'S LEADING EXPLORERS AND THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SILENCE
'Erling Kagge is a philosophical adventurer - or perhaps an adventurous philosopher' New York Times
____________________________________
'After having put my shoes on and let my thoughts wander, I am sure of one thing - to put one foot in front of the other is one of the most important things we do.'
From those perilous first steps as a toddler, to great expeditions, from walking to work to trekking to the North Pole, Erling Kagge explains that he who walks goes further and lives better.
Walking is a book about the love of exploration, the delight of discovery and the equilibrium that can be found in this most simple of activities.
____________________________________
'If you are a walker this book will resonate with you, if you have seldom or never walked this book should be compulsory reading' Rosamund Young
'A thought-proving and enjoyable book that revels in seeing the global in the local. Erling Kagge reveals new ways to view home and homo sapiens, and, as he travels leisurely, we grow slowly wiser' Tristan Gooley
'Part rumination, part walking coach and companion . . . and one that might just do more for your health and happiness than your treadmill alone ever could' New York Journal of Books
'A thoughtful book-length essay on a taken-for-granted human activity' Kirkus
'[Walking is] much more subtle than a typical self-help . . . Erling Kagge uses his acquaintance with extreme environments to reflect on the mental and physical benefits of walking' Economist
