The Stories Old Towns Tell
A fascinating journey through Europe’s old towns, exploring why we treasure them—but also what they hide about a continent’s fraught history
Historic quarters in cities and towns across the middle of Europe were devastated during the Second World War—some, like those of Warsaw and Frankfurt, had to be rebuilt almost completely. They are now centers of peace and civility that attract millions of tourists, but the stories they tell about places, peoples, and nations are selective. They are never the whole story.
These old towns and their turbulent histories have been key sites in Europe’s ongoing theater of politics and war. Exploring seven old towns, from Frankfurt and Prague to Vilnius in Lithuania, the acclaimed writer Marek Kohn examines how they have been used since the Second World War to conceal political tensions and reinforce certain versions of history.
Uncovering hidden stories behind these old and old-seeming façades, Kohn offers us a new understanding of the politics of European history-making—showing how our visits to old towns could promote belonging over exclusion, and empathy over indifference.
The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air
"A dark jewel of a book . . . intoxicating" - Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Six of Crows
Nominated for the CILIP CARNEGIE MEDAL 2019
Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.
And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.
One terrible morning, Jude and her sisters see their parents murdered in front of them. The terrifying assassin abducts all three girls to the world of Faerie, where Jude is installed in the royal court but mocked and tormented by the Faerie royalty for being mortal.
As Jude grows older, she realises that she will need to take part in the dangerous deceptions of the fey to ever truly belong.
But the stairway to power is fraught with shadows and betrayal. And looming over all is the infuriating, arrogant and charismatic Prince Cardan . . .
Dramatic and thrilling fantasy blends seamlessly with enthralling storytelling to create a fully realised and seductive world, brimful of magic and romance.
One Hundred Saturdays
Having the last word can be very lonely.'
Nearly a century of life behind her, Stella Levi had never shared the full details of her past with anyone. That is until she met Michael Frank, and asked him to help her polish a talk she was to give about life in the Juderia of Rhodes. Neither of them could know that this was the first of one hundred Saturdays that they would spend in each other's company.
Courageous and sharp, elegant and sly, Stella is a formidable modern Scheherazade whose Saturday instalments give a window into the vibrant, vanished world of the Jews of Rhodes. She unspools for the first time the long threads of her history - from the sun-soaked shores of her childhood, to the fifteen harrowing months she spent in camps scattered throughout Europe, and finally to the United States and New York as one of only 150 Jews from Rhodes to survive.
Featuring colour illustrations based on Stella's family photographs, One Hundred Saturdays is an unusual and extraordinary memoir. It is a testament to the soul-saving power of relationships; to memories revisited; to resilience. It's not only a vital slice of history that has largely been ignored, but a story of the possibility of an ever-evolving self, even after confronting Hell.
The Old Man and The Sea
The old man, whose name is Santiago, is a fisherman who lives alone near Havana. Incredibly poor, he sleeps in a shack and sets out each day on a small skiff to try to catch himself some fish to eat or sell. For awhile, the boy, named Manolin, accompanied the old man each day, to learn from him and assist him. Unfortunately, the old man went weeks without catching anything, so the boy's parents made him stop accompanying the old man. When the story begins, the boy is probably around twelve years old, and the old man has gone eighty-four days without catching a fish. The boy comes to his shack to talk to the old man about baseball, as they both greatly admire Joe DiMaggio, and supplies the old man might need. The boy likes to bring the old man whatever he can, such as food, bait, and clothing. He also helps the old man carry his heavy mast and sail out to his boat each morning. They drink a cup of coffee together before the old man heads out on his skiff alone.

Beatles, The - The Blue Album 1967 - 1970 (2023 Edition) 2CD
The Beatles bola anglická rocková skupina založená v Liverpoole v roku 1960 v zložení John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison a Ringo Starr. Sú považovaní za najvplyvnejšiu skupinu všetkých čias a boli neoddeliteľnou súčasťou rozvoja kontrakultúry 60. rokov a uznania populárnej hudby ako umeleckej formy. Ich zvuk má korene v skiffle, beate a rock'n'rolle 50. rokov a inovatívnym spôsobom zahŕňa prvky klasickej hudby a tradičného popu. Skupina tiež skúmala hudobné štýly od ľudovej a indickej hudby po psychedéliu a hard rock. Ako priekopníci v nahrávaní, písaní piesní a umeleckej prezentácii spôsobili Beatles revolúciu v mnohých aspektoch hudobného priemyslu a boli často propagovaní ako vodcovia mládežníckych a sociokultúrnych hnutí tej doby. The Beatles sú najpredávanejším hudobným počinom všetkých čias s odhadovaným predajom 600 miliónov kusov po celom svete. Sú najúspešnejším počinom v histórii americkej hitparády Billboard, držia rekord v počte albumov na prvom mieste v UK Albums Chart (15), najviac hitov na prvom mieste v americkom rebríčku Billboard Hot 100 (20 ) a najviac singlov sa predalo v Spojenom kráľovstve (21,9 milióna). Skupina získala mnoho ocenení vrátane siedmich cien Grammy, štyroch cien Brit Awards, Oscara (za najlepšiu pôvodnú skladbu pre dokumentárny film Let It Be z roku 1970) a pätnástich cien Ivora Novella. V roku 1988 ich uviedli do Rock'n'rollovej siene slávy a každý hlavný člen bol uvedený individuálne v rokoch 1994 až 2015. V rokoch 2004 a 2011 sa skupina dostala na prvé miesto rebríčka najväčších umelcov v histórii Rolling Stone. Časopis Time ich zaradil medzi 100 najdôležitejších ľudí 20. storočia.
Táto nová kompilácia predstavuje generáciám fanúšikov neuveriteľnú históriu najslávnejšej kapely v hudbe. K svojmu 50. výročiu bola kolekcia rozšírená o 9 ďalších skladieb, vrátane „Blackbird“, „Glass Onion“ a novej piesne „Now And Then“. The Last Beatles Song, „Now And Then“ dopĺňa demo nahrávku Johna Lennona vokálu a klavíra zo 70. rokov s časťami, ktoré hrali Paul McCartney, George Harrison a Ringo Starr, ako aj s novým aranžmánom pre sláčiky. Kolekcia 2CD teraz obsahuje 37 skladieb, z ktorých 6 má nové mixy na rok 2023. Brožúra obsahuje nové poznámky novinára a autora Johna Harrisa.

The first quest is to help Zeus's cup-bearer retrieve his goblet before it falls into the wrong hands. Can Percy, Grover, and Annabeth find it in time? Readers new to Percy Jackson and fans who have been awaiting this reunion for more than a decade will delight equally in this latest hilarious take on Greek mythology.

The Old Oak Tree's Last Dream (EN)
On the top of a cliff overlooking the sea was an oak tree that was 365 years old. It was an unimaginable age for the mayflies, tiny creatures who lived only one day. The oak only slept during the winter. The rest of the year, he remained alert. That year, like every year, he began to lose his leaves in autumn.
