Due to a mysterious family curse, all the Kaznci men die in their early forties, so it is a house of women, among them Asya's beautiful, rebellious mother Zeliha, who runs a tattoo parlour; Banu, who has newly discovered herself as clairvoyant; and Feride, a hypochondriac obsessed with impending disaster. And when Asya's Armenian-American cousin Armanoush comes to stay, long hidden family secrets connected with Turkey's turbulent past begin to emerge.

"Heartbreaking...the beauty of Islam pervades Shafak's book." (Vogue).

OWC Tom Jones
Fielding's comic masterpiece of 1749 was immediately attacked as 'A motley history of bastardism, fornication, and adultery'. Indeed, his populous novel overflows with a marvellous assortment of prudes, whores, libertines, bumpkins, misanthropes, hypocrites, scoundrels, virgins, and all too fallible humanitarians. At the centre of one of the most ingenious plots in English fiction stands a hero whose actions were, in 1749, as shocking as they are funny today. Expelled from Mr Allworthy's country estate for his wild temper and sexual conquests, the good-hearted foundling Tom Jones loses his money, joins the army, and pursues his beloved across Britain to London, where he becomes a kept lover and confronts the possibility of incest. Tom Jones is rightly regarded as Fielding's greatest work, and one of the first and most influential of English novels. This carefully modernized edition is based on Fielding's emended fourth edition text and offers the most thorough notes, maps, and bibliography. The introduction uses the latest scholarship to examine how Tom Jones exemplifies the role of the novel in the emerging eighteenth-century public sphere.

Hedy Lamarr, az egyetlen nő
A zsidó családból származó Hedwig Kiestler csodálatos szépség, aki Sissi császárné szerepében azonnal magára vonja a náci fegyvergyáros, Fritz Mandl figyelmét. Abban a reményben, hogy ezzel megóvja életét, feleségül megy a férfihoz, aki nyíltan beszél előtte üzleti ügyeiről és a nácik fegyvereiről. Sejtelme sincs, hogy az asszony, akivel összekötötte az életét, nem csak káprázatosan gyönyörű, de elképesztően okos is, s nem hogy érti, amiről beszélgetnek, de kifejezetten érdeklik a hadi fejlesztések.
A II. világháború előtt sötét fellegek gyülekeznek Hedy feje felett: férje egyre inkább kontrollálni akarja őt, a németek pedig megszállják Ausztriát. Hedy számára világossá válik, hogy menekülnie kell: nem csak saját, személyes érdekében, hanem azok érdekében is, akiknek a sorsa megpecsételődött a nácik előretörésével. Hedy ugyanis olyan tudás birtokában van, amely milliók életét mentheti meg.
Elképesztő és igaz történet egy nőről, aki ünnepelt dívaként nem csak Hollywoodot hódította meg, hanem a férfiak által uralt tudományos világban is helyt állt.
Marie Benedict a Boston College-ban történelmet és művészettörténetet tanult, majd a bostoni jogi egyetemen jogot hallgatott. Több mint tíz évig dolgozott ügyvédként, de mindig is arról álmodott, hogy olyan nők élettörténetét írhatja meg, akiknek a sorsa és élete méltatlanul elfeledett. A Hedy Lamarr, az egyetlen nő című regénye a magyar származású, ünnepelt hollywoodi színésznő és feltaláló, Hedy Lamarr életén alapul, aki a nácik által megszállt Ausztriából először Londonba, majd az Egyesült Államokba emigrált. Az asszony nem csak hihetetlenül szép, de meglehetősen intelligens is volt. A szövetségesek hadászati eredményeit segítendő George Antheillel közösen a hadi torpedók rádiófrekvenciájának zavarására alkalmas találmányt fejlesztettek ki, amelyet szabadalmaztattak is.

Punk
The art of Damien Hirst and the music of the Prodigy, the attitude of Liam Gallagher and the hair of Eminem - all owe a great debt to the cultural movement that burrowed through Andy Warhol's Factory and the early 1970s' New York underground, emerging triumphant, kicking and screaming at the top of the British popular music charts, some five years later. Affectionately known as 'punk', it was the spotty, scruffy, bastard offspring of many a grander musical form, but like many a prodigal, went on to become more successful than its forebears, leaving a legacy that is still recognised today. This book gives voice to the punk generation 25 years on, as it remembers the mad, frenzied and often incoherent world of 1975-9. With nearly 100 contributors, including specially commissioned interviews with members and managers of the Sex Pistols, the Clash, the Ramones, the Heartbreakers, Siouxsie and the Banshees and many others, everybody has had a chance to speak, and their memories are supported by hundreds of previously unpublished photographs. Variously described as middle class, working class, political, social, sexual, aristic, superficial, perverted, puerile and heroic, punk has always inspired contoversy. Now it is for the reader to decide the truth - or truths - that fuelled this unique movement.

Game Of Thrones
NOW THE ACCLAIMED HBO SERIES GAME OF THRONES
Here is the first volume in George R. R. Martin?s magnificent cycle of novels that includes A Clash of Kings and A Storm of Swords. As a whole, this series comprises a genuine masterpiece of modern fantasy, bringing together the best the genre has to offer. Magic, mystery, intrigue, romance, and adventure fill these pages and transport us to a world unlike any we have ever experienced. Already hailed as a classic, George R. R. Martin?s stunning series is destined to stand as one of the great achievements of imaginative fiction. A GAME OF THRONES Long ago, in a time forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons out of balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom?s protective Wall. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the land they were born to. Sweeping from a land of brutal cold to a distant summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, here is a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens. Here an enigmatic band of warriors bear swords of no human metal; a tribe of fierce wildlings carry men off into madness; a cruel young dragon prince barters his sister to win back his throne; and a determined woman undertakes the most treacherous of journeys. Amid plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and terror, the fate of the Starks, their allies, and their enemies hangs perilously in the balance, as each endeavors to win that deadliest of conflicts: the game of thrones.
