Darling Days
I WAS BORN, SEPTEMBER 1985, IN THE VORTEX OF THE LOWER EAST SIDE OF NEW YORK: THERE WERE FEW RULES OF LIFE AND ZERO CONTRAINTS ON BEHAVIOUR. IF YOU WERE NOT ECCENTRIC, YOU WERE WEIRD.It was a tenement building at the centre of the drug-addled, punk-edged, permanent riot that was iO's corner of the Lower East Side of New York City in the '80s and 90's. There iO grew up - or rather scrabbled up - under the broken wing of a fiercely protective, yet wildly negligent mother.Rhonna was a showgirl, actress, dancer, poet. A widow by police murder, she was also an addict. She doted and obsessed over iO, yet lacked an understanding that a child needs food and sleep and safety.Unfolding in animated, crystalline prose, an emotionally raw, devastatingly powerful memoir of one young person's extraordinary coming of age - a tale of gender and identity, freedom and addiction, rebellion and survival in the 1980s and 1990s, when punk poverty, heroin and art collided in the urban bohemia of New York's Lower East Side.Darling Days is also a provocative examination of culture and identity, of the instincts that shape us and the norms that deform us, and of the courage and resilience of a child listening closely to their deepest self. When a group of boys refuse to let the six-year-old play ball, iO instantly adopts a new persona, becoming a boy named Ricky, a choice the parents support and celebrate. It is the start of a profound exploration of gender and identity through the tenderest years, and the beginning of a life invented and reinvented at every step.Alternating between the harrowing and the hilarious, Darling Days is the candid, tough, and stirring memoir of a young person in search of an authentic self as family and home life devolve into chaos until iO escapes to Germany and then England to become an amazingly talented, exciting, edgy artist and wonderful writer.

On Liberty
On Liberty is the story of today's threats to our freedoms and a highly personal, impassioned plea in defence of fundamental rights, from Shami Chakrabarti, the director of the advocacy group Liberty On 11 September 2001, our world changed. The West's response to 9/11 has morphed into a period of exception. Governments have decided that the rule of law and human rights are often too costly. In On Liberty, Shami Chakrabarti - who joined Liberty, the UK's leading civil rights organisation, on 10 September 2001 - explores why our fundamental rights and freedoms are indispensable. She shows, too, the unprecedented pressures those rights are under today. Drawing on her own work in high-profile campaigns, from privacy laws to anti-terror legislation, Chakrabarti shows the threats to our democratic institutions and why our rights are paramount in upholding democracy. "Probably the most effective public affairs lobbyist of the past 20 years". (David Aaronovitch, The Times). "The undaunted freedom fighter". (Observer). "The most dangerous woman in Britain". (Sun). Shami Chakrabarti is director of the human rights campaign group Liberty. She was a member of the panel of the Leveson Inquiry, a judicial inquiry into phone hacking in the UK. Chakrabarti is Chancellor of Oxford Brookes University, Honorary Professor of Law at the University of Manchester, Visiting Fellow of Nuffield College, Oxford and a Master of the Bench of Middle Temple. She was awarded a CBE in 2007 and she was one of eight bearers of the Olympic Flag at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics. This is her first book.

A St. Oswald fiúiskola
Sötét, felkavaró pszichothriller a lenyűgözően sokoldalú Joanne Harristől.
Roy Stratley latint tanít az észak-angliai St. Oswald fiúiskolában, ebben a hagyományaihoz ragaszkodó, rejtett feszültségektől terhes, zárt világban. Az itt töltött harminc év alatt Stratley sokféle diákkal találkozott, hiszen minden osztálynak megvannak a maga bohócai és hangadói, vannak visszahúzódók és nyitott gondolkodású lázadók. S mindig van legalább egy olyan fiú is, aki kilóg a sorból, aki nem tud beilleszkedni. Valaki, akit baljós árnyak vesznek körül. Egy fiú, aki szörnyű dolgokra képes...
A kérdés csak az, meg tudjuk-e ítélni, kivel van dolgunk, s el tudjuk-e dönteni, melyik fiú küzd átlagos tinédzserkori nehézségekkel, és ki az, akinek komoly segítségre lenne szüksége. Stratley helyzetét megnehezíti, hogy új igazgató érkezik az iskola élére: egy hajdani tanítvány, aki húsz éve kísérti Stratley-t az álmaiban...
A Kékszemű fiú és az Urak és játékosok után ezúttal is a nagy hagyományokkal rendelkező észak-angliai fiúiskola a helyszíne Harris hihetetlenül szellemesen megírt, feszültségteli regényének, amellyel a szerző megerősíti helyét a thriller műfajának legjobbjai között.

Theresienstadt Requiem
The summer of 1944 was turbulent. Panic-stricken German armies were retreating in disarray on all fronts. German towns and cities were reduced to heaps of bizarre ruins. And Hitler, piqued into unconcealed frenzy by the attempt on his life, sowed death in the ranks of the Wehrmacht. The Nazi Reich was shaken to its very foundations. None of this caused Eichmann to waver in his plans. In Central Europe his tactics for the “Final Solution of the Jewish Question” remained unaltered. And the main item of deception in his plans of window-dressing was to be the huge “Theresienstadt Ghetto” transit camp in Bohemia, hitherto a place of misery, hunger and death, which was repainted in the brief space of a few weeks and decked out as a gigantic, astounding film set, to fool the international Red Cross and to amuse the SS-top brass. In accordance with Eichmann’s screenplay, live people formed part of that film set. In the final act of parody and deception, the prisoners were to perform the monumental oratorium, theVerdi´s Requiem. And they were taken in by it, and began to hope and to live. Josef Bor’s dramatic narrative of preparations and rehearsals for the performance of Verdi’s Requiem by Jewish prisoners is a remarkable literary achievement. It has all the raw elements of non fiction told by an observant witness, but when transcended by art, the true story becomes a heart-rending psychological drama.

Olümposz
Görögország és Trója dicsőséges seregei összecsapnak az istenek figyelő tekintete előtt, gondosan követve Homérosz időtlen narratívájának forgatókönyvét. De ez még azelőtt történik, hogy egy megfigyelő — Thomas Hockenberry, a huszonegyedik századi — fel nem kavarja a véres állóvizet; azelőtt, hogy a felháborodott Akhilleusz egyesítené erőit a nemezisével, Hektórral; és azelőtt, hogy a gyorslábú férfiölő Zeusz, Héra, Athéné, Afrodité, Apollón és a többi manipulatív isten ellen fordítaná a dühét. Dan Simmons, a Hyperioni énekek-ciklus többszörösen díjazott szerzője ezzel a várva-várt befejezéssel tér vissza, amely a kritikusok elismerését is elnyerő Ílion-duológiát zárja le. Ez a koncepcióját és mélységét tekintve önmagában is lélegzetelállító regény egy zseniálisan elképzelt katasztrofális jövő képét vetíti elő, amelyben a halhatatlan ""poszthumánok"" a saját szórakoztatásukra újraalkotják a marsi Olympos Mons tetejéről a trójai háborút, miközben az emberiség megmaradt képviselői arra kényszerülnek, hogy szembenézzenek végső pusztulásukkal.

Purity
A magnum opus for our morally complex times from the author of FREEDOM and THE CORRECTIONS Young Pip Tyler doesn't know who she is. She knows that her real name is Purity, that she's saddled with $130,000 in student debt, that she's squatting with anarchists in Oakland, and that her relationship with her mother - her only family - is hazardous. But she doesn't have a clue who her father is, why her mother chose to live as a recluse with an invented name, or how she'll ever have a normal life. Enter the Germans. A glancing encounter with a German peace activist leads Pip to an internship in South America with the Sunlight Project, an organization that traffics in all the secrets of the world - including, Pip hopes, the secret of her origins. TSP is the brainchild of Andreas Wolf, a charismatic provocateur who rose to fame in the chaos following the fall of the Berlin Wall. Now on the lam in Bolivia, Andreas is drawn to Pip for reasons she doesn't understand, and the intensity of her response to him upends her conventional ideas of right and wrong. Jonathan Franzen's Purity is a grand story of youthful idealism, extreme fidelity, and murder. The author of The Corrections and Freedom has imagined a world of vividly original characters - Californians and East Germans, good parents and bad parents, journalists and leakers - and he follows their intertwining paths through landscapes as contemporary as the omnipresent Internet and as ancient as the war between the sexes. Purity is the most daring and penetrating book yet by one of the major writers of our time.

Logo Modernism
Modernist aesthetics in architecture, art and product design are familiar to many of the creatively inclined. In soaring glass structures or minimalist canvases we recognize a time of vast technological advance which affirmed the power of human beings to reshape their environment and to break, radically, from the conventions or constraints of the past. Less well-known, but no less fascinating, is the distillation of Modernism in logo design. With the creation of clean visual concepts, graphic designers sought to move away from the mystique they identified with the commercial artist, and to counterbalance an increasingly complicated world with clarity. This unprecedented TASCHEN publication, authored by Jens Muller, brings together approximately 6,000 trademarks, focused on the period 1940-1980, to examine how Modernist attitudes and imperatives gave birth to corporate identity. Ranging from media outfits to retail giants, airlines to art galleries, this sweeping survey of the logo is organized into three design-orientated chapters: Geometric, Effect, and Typographic. Each chapter is then sub-divided into form and style led sections such as alphabet, overlay, dots and squares. Alongside this comprehensive catalog resource, the book features an introduction from Jens Muller on the history of logos, and an essay by R. Roger Remington on Modernism and Graphic Design. Eight designer profiles and eight instructive case studies are also included, with a detailed look at the life and work of such luminaries as Paul Rand, Yusaku Kamekura, and Anton Stankowski, and at such significant projects as Fiat, The Daiei, Inc., and the Mexico Olympic Games of 1968. An unrivalled, encylopedic resource for graphic designers, advertisers, and branding specialists, Logo Modernism is equally fascinating to anyone interested in social, cultural and corporate history, and in the sheer persuasive power of image and form.

O zlaté kolébce CD
Pásmo je sestaveno z děl Aloise Jiráska, Eduarda Petišky, Václava Cibuly a Julia Košnáře. Začíná dávnými příběhy potomků praotce Čecha a vyzdvihuje osobnost kněžny Libuše, která podle některých kronikářů pronáší svá slavná proroctví na Vyšehradě. A pod vyšehradskou skálou ukrývá hluboká tůň řeky Vltavy bájnou zlatou Libušinu kolébku. Ta se pak znovu vynoří na hladinu po narození Karla IV. - otce vlasti. Císař Karel v ní uléhal jako malé dítě a kolébka s ním rostla a proměnila se ve zlaté lože, na němž usínal na hradě Křivoklátě. Pověsti pokračují vyprávěním příběhů staré Prahy za věhlasné vlády Karla IV. a jeho syna Václava IV. Po smrti Karlově se prý lože opět proměnilo v kolébku a vrátilo se do Vltavy pod vyšehradskou skálu, kde čeká…

The Climb: The Autobiography
The Climb by Chris Froome - the inspirational memoir from the British winner of the 100th edition of the Tour de France. The Climb tells the extraordinary story of Chris Froome's journey from a young boy in Kenya, riding through townships and past wild animals, and with few opportunities for an aspiring cyclist, to his unforgettable yellow jersey victory in the 2013 Tour de France. A journey unlike any other in the history of cycling, Froome has crossed continents, overcome the death of his mother and conquered debilitating illness to follow his dreams and represent Team GB and Team Sky. He has experienced soaring triumphs, humbling defeats, a public rivalry with Bradley Wiggins and, most recently, the pressures of Lance Armstrong's legacy. Extraordinary, revealing and life-affirming, The Climb is a story of determination, hardship and unimaginable success. Chris Froome was born in Nairobi in 1985 to British parents. He was educated and raised in South Africa and now races for Team GB and Team Sky. In 2011 he finished second overall in the Vuelta a Espana. In 2012 he finished runner-up to Bradley Wiggins in the Tour de France and won the Bronze medal in the Time Trial at the Olympic Games. Froome amassed five stage-race victories in 2013, with triumphs at the Tour of Oman, Criterium International, Tour de Romandie and Criterium du Dauphine leading into a dominant win at the 100th Tour de France. He won the prestigious Velo d'Or award for best rider of 2013 and was shortlisted for the 2013 BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award. In 2014 he won the Tour of Oman, the Tour de Romandie and finished runner-up in the Vuelta a Espana.

King and Maxwell
She's trained to kill. He's beaten the best. This time all bets are off. Former secret service agents turned private investigators, Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, return in their most surprising, personal and dangerous case to date. Michelle had chased many things in her life. As a track star and later Olympic rower, she had constantly pitted herself against others in races. As a cop in Tennessee she had run down her share of felons fleeing the scenes of their crimes. As a Secret Service Agent she had been fleet of foot next to limos carrying important leaders. Tonight, though, she was competing against a long-legged teenager with the boundless energy and fresh knees of youth who had a substantial head start and was running like the devil was on his heels...King and Maxwell encounter teenager Tyler Wingo when he has just received the tragic news that his soldier father has been killed in Afghanistan. But then Tyler receives an email from his father...after his supposed death. Sean and Michelle are hired to solve the mystery, and their investigation leads to deeper, even more troubling questions. Could Tyler's father really still be alive? Was his mission all that it seemed? Has Tyler's life been a lie, and could he be the next target? It's clear that King and Maxwell have stumbled upon something even more sinister when those in power seem intent on removing them at any cost. Determined to help and protect Tyler, their search for the truth takes them on a perilous journey which not only puts their lives at risk but arrives at a frightening conclusion.

Football faust CD
Fotbal jako náboženství, fotbalista jako spasitel. Na první pohled by se mohlo zdát, že Football Faust Paula Tumy (s podtitulem Proroctví o fotbalovém bohu) je jen další knihou o fotbalu. Tato je ovšem v mnoha ohledech výjimečným vydavatelským počinem. Především oproti svému původnímu vydání dostala audiopodobu. Příběh Erika - chlapce a posléze muže s vizionářskými schopnostmi - skvěle namluvil herec Michal Dlouhý, známý z divadelních prken (Smrt obchodního cestujícího v Národním divadle, nepočítaně rolí především v Činoherním klubu i na dalších scénách) i mnoha filmů a televizních inscenací (namátkou Černí baroni, Sedmero krkavců, Sametoví vrazi). On sám ke své účasti na projektu Football Faust a jeho výjimečnosti říká: Tento fotbalový román mne při přečtení tak dostal, že jsem ho pro Vás, přes svou obtěžující dislekcii, načetl s chutí a s nasazením, jakého jsem schopen. Výsledkem práce Michala Dlouhého a Paula Tumy je 546 minut strhujícího poslechu jednoho nevšedního příběhu o fotbalu, náboženství, moci, médiích, genetickém inženýrství, jednom proroctví a spasiteli. A také o Poslední večeři a o tom, jak je těžké, učinit v pravou chvíli správné rozhodnutí. Audioknihu vydal Pavel Beneš. Děj knihy se točí kolem vzájemně propletených osudů dvou zcela odlišných lidí. Outsidera, který sice mohl být skvělým hráčem, ale ze sportovního rozletu ho do invalidního křesla srazilo auto. To on je vypravěčem příběhu. Jeho protipólem je fotbalový Spasitel, globální hvězda, ochránce chudých, slabých a nemocných (a možná dokonce i Bůh v jedné osobě). To on má (možná) dostatek moci, plynoucí z jeho talentu i dřiny, aby sjednotil a vedl celý svět... Ale kam? Jak Paul Tuma říká: Když jsem v roce 2005 psal o globální ekonomické krizi, mnoho lidí mělo na tváři úsměv. Atraktivitu této audioknihy zvyšuje i možnost posluchačů ovlivnit děj na www.footballfaust.com a právo rozhodnout o jednání hlavního hrdiny. Zda je skutečně vyvolený a syn boha, který může udělat pořádek na Zemi, nebo jen výjimečný sportovec a dokonalý manipulátor připravující si půdu na celosvětovou nadvládu. Součástí paketu je samozřejmě CD-obal ve formátu PDF a fotografický doprovod knihy.
