In flagranti
Milování je jako dobré jídlo, musí mít vůni smyslnosti a otevřené horké radosti, okořeněné vášní a naservírované na svůdně blaženém a pestře zdobeném podnosu.
Aneta žije ne zrovna spokojeným manželským životem a svou frustraci z nedostatku kvalitního sexu řeší se svou svůdnou kamarádkou Veronikou, která ji podporuje nejen v manželské nevěře, ale i různých netradičních erotických dobrodružstvích. Spirála vášně, nejtajnějších sexuálních tužeb a fantazií se tak začne nekontrolovaně roztáčet...

My Life in Dire Straits
Dire Straits filled giant stadiums around the world and sold hundreds of millions of records. Throughout the eighties they were one of the biggest bands on the planet. Their classic songs - 'Sultans of Swing', 'Romeo and Juliet', 'Money for Nothing', 'Brothers In Arms' - formed the soundtrack of a generation and live on today: still racking up sales, still being played on the radio on every continent. In My Life in Dire Straits, John Illsley - founding member, bassist and mainstay - evokes the spirit of the times and tells the story of one of the great live acts of rock history.
Starting with his own unlikely beginnings in Middle England, he recounts the band's rise from humble origins in London's spit-and-sawdust pubs to the best-known venues in the world, the working man's clubs to Madison Square Garden, gigging with wild punk bands to the Live Aid stage at Wembley. Until, ultimately, the shattering demands of touring on a global scale and living life in the spotlight took their inevitable toll.
John's story is also a tribute to his great friend Mark Knopfler, the band's lead singer, songwriter and gifted guitarist - the only band members to stay the fifteen-year distance. Told with searching honesty, soulful reflection and wry humour, this is the first and only account of that incredible story.

What if we took a chance on another life?

Stash : My Life in Hiding
Named a Best Memoir of 2023 by Elle
In the vein of Somebody's Daughter, this wild, vivid addiction memoir from the host of the podcast The Only One in the Room "will inspire, awe, entertain, educate, and help so many readers" (Christie Tate, New York Times bestselling author) with a journey to sobriety and self-love amidst privilege and racism.
After years of hiding her addiction from everyone--stockpiling pills in her Louboutins and elaborately scheduling her withdrawals between PTA meetings, baby showers, and tennis matches--Laura Cathcart Robbins is running out of places to hide.
She has learned the hard way that even her high-profile marriage and Hollywood lifestyle can't protect her from the pain she's keeping bottled up inside. Facing divorce, the possibility of a grueling custody battle, and the insistent voice of internalized racism that nags at her as a Black woman in a startlingly white world, Laura wonders just how much more she can take.
Now, with courageous and candid openness, she reveals how she started the long journey towards sobriety, unexpectedly found new love, and dismantled the wall she had built around herself, brick by brick. With its raw, finely crafted, and engaging prose, Stash is "emotionally riveting...usher[ing] in a new way for us to talk and read about the paradoxes of addiction, race, family, class, and gender." (Kiese Laymon, author of Heavy).
Down and Out in Paris and London
'You can live on a shilling a day in Paris if you know how. But it is a complicated business'
As a struggling writer in his twenties, Orwell lived as a down-and-out among the poorest members of society. In this, his early memoir, Orwell recalls with vivid clarity his time working as a penniless dishwasher in Paris, pawning clothes to buy a day's worth of bread and wine, sleeping in bug-infested bunks, trading survival skills and cigarette butts with fellow tramps, and trudging between London's workhouse spikes for a few hours' sleep and tea.
With all of the sensitivity and compassion that Orwell is known and loved for, he exposed the hardships of poverty and gave readers an unprecedented look at life lived on the fringes of society.
Pokojní v nepokoji / Light in darkness
Fotograf Timotej Križka zachytil príbehy politických väzňov zo Slovenska. Do knihy vybral svedectvá tých, ktorých pobyt vo väzení nezlomil a napriek neprávosti, ktorá bola na nich spáchaná, si zachovali vnútornú slobodu a pokoj. Ako hovorí jeden zo svedkov: Každý z nás má mať určitý životný názor a za ním stáť za každej situácie. Nie meniť svoje názory vzhľadom k tomu, aby po ekonomickej alebo spoločenskej stránke získal niečo navrch. Tak bude šťastný a spokojný.

***
Človek môže byť fyzicky obmedzený, ale o slobodu ducha, o to nemôže obrať človeka ani väzenie. / A man can be limited physically, but not even prison can rob a man of the freedom of the spirit.
Nehanbím sa sám pred sebou. Keby som videl, aj zrkadlo by mi ukázalo, kto som. / I am not ashamed when I look at myself. If I could see, even the mirror would show me who I am.
Vyšiel som von ako slepý. Nepoznal som peniaze, nič. Bol som samý vred. Boli veľké ako slepačie vajce. Celý čas som žil pod tlakom nevedomosti. Prišiel som domov a keď ma uvidela manželka, myslela si, že má halucinácie. Deti vyrástli, jedna dcérka mala dvanásť, druhá desať rokov. / When I got out I was like a blind man. I didnt know the currency, nothing. I was covered in ulcers. Ulcers as big as chicken eggs. This whole time I lived under the pressure of ignorance. I came home and when my wife saw me, she thought she was hallucinating. My children grew up, one of my daughters was twelve, the other ten.
Tam som mal čas na premýšľanie. Modlil som sa za svojich nepriateľov, nikdy som nepochyboval o tom, že dobro zvíťazí. Naivita? Doteraz som na to nenašiel odpoveď. / In there I had time to think. I prayed for my enemies, I never doubted that good would triumph over evil. Naiveté? I dont have an answer yet.

Food for life
Food is our greatest ally for good health, but the question of what to eat has never seemed so complicated. Tim Spector has pioneered a science-based approach to nutrition, encouraging us to forget misleading notions of calorie counts or nutritional breakdowns. In Food for Life he draws on over a decade of cutting-edge scientific research, along with his own personal insights, to deliver a new and comprehensive guide to what we should all know about food today. Taking a wide-angle lens on everything from environmental impact and food fraud to allergies and deceptive labelling, Spector also shows us the many wondrous and surprising properties of everyday foods, which scientists are only just beginning to understand.
Empowering, practical, wide-ranging and filled with intriguing insights, Food for Life is nothing less than a new approach to how to eat - for our health and the health of the planet.

Tak jako mnozí další nachází Foster svobodu, klid a dobrodružství v životě zcela mimo sítě.

Reign - Life in Elizabeth's Britain Part I
She came to the throne in 1952 when Britain had a far-flung empire, Winston Churchill was prime minister, sweets were rationed, mums stayed at home and kids played on bombsites. In the seventy years that followed everything changed utterly - except the Queen herself, ageing far more gracefully than the fractious nation with which she became synonymous.
While the Queen is the motif for this book, the story Engel tells is not about her - it is primarily about the British. Through original research, interviews with people who were there and his own memories of the time, Matthew Engel traces the transformation of life in Britain as never before.
Beginning with the death of King George VI and ending on the eve of Margaret Thatcher's election, Engel not only covers all the major historical events but also explores everyday life - from the food we ate and where we shopped, to what we watched on television and the newspapers we read. In doing so, he brings these three decades to life with his own light touch and a wealth of fascinating, forgotten, often funny detail.

Avenged Sevenfold - Life Is But A Dream... CD
Avenged Sevenfold (skrátene A7X) je americká heavymetalová skupina z Huntington Beach v Kalifornii, založená v roku 1999. Súčasnú zostavu kapely tvoria hlavný spevák a klavirista M. Shadows, rytmický gitarista a sprievodný spevák Zacky Vengeance, hlavný gitarista, klavirista, a sprievodný spevák Synyster Gates, basgitarista a sprievodný spevák Johnny Christ a bubeník Brooks Wackerman.Avenged Sevenfold sú známi svojim rôznorodým rockovým zvukom a dramatickými obrazmi v obaloch albumov. Skupina začínala s metalcorovým zvukom na svojom debutovom albume „Sounding the Seventh Trumpet“ a v tomto zvuku pokračovala aj cez druhý album „Waking the Fallen“. Štýl kapely sa však vyvinul s tretím albumom skupiny a prvým vydaním veľkého vydavateľstva „City of Evil“ do štýlu heavy metalu, hard rocku a progresívneho metalu. Kapela pokračovala v objavovaní nových zvukov vďaka svojmu rovnomennému vydaniu a tešila sa pokračujúcemu mainstreamovému úspechu predtým, ako ich bubeník James „The Rev“ Sullivan v roku 2009 zomrel. Napriek jeho smrti Avenged Sevenfold pokračoval s pomocou bubeníka Mikea Portnoya (ex -Dream Theater) a vydali a vydali sa na turné na podporu svojho piateho albumu „Nightmare“ v roku 2010, ktorý debutoval na vrchole rebríčka Billboard 200, bol ich prvým debutom číslo jedna. "Life Is but a Dream..." je pripravovaný ôsmy štúdiový album, ktorého vydanie je naplánované na 2. júna 2023 prostredníctvom Warner Records. Jeho vydanie je naplánované na takmer sedem rokov po jeho predchodcovi The Stage (2016), čo znamená doteraz najdlhšiu medzeru medzi štúdiovými albumami kapely. Podobne ako The Stage, Life Is but a Dream... produkovala kapela s Joeom Barresim.
