Pacanka
Jak se konečně zbavit syndromu hodné holčičky? Pacanka chce žít svobodně. V souladu se svými pocity a sexualitou. Je jí právě třicet a ve vztahu ani ve stávajícím životě ji to nebaví. Naplněný život a svobodu hledá v Nizozemsku, v Praze, ve Zlíně, ve Francii, na Ukrajině a nakonec v Řecku. Chce zažívat dobrodružství, setkávat se s obyčejnými i neobyčejnými lidmi a doufá, že tam někde se konečně bude cítit šťastná. A přestože každá její cesta je jiná, mají cosi společného. Pacanka na to však přichází pomalu a postupně. Ne v barech a hospodách, které navštíví, ne v postelích mužů i žen, se kterými prožije lepší nebo horší sex. Jejím největším objevem je vnitřní svět. Postupně nahlíží společného jmenovatele svého chování — destrukci, pomocí níž se snaží zničit své naučené vzorce. Cesta ven ale zdaleka není jednoduchá a přímá. A kdo je vlastně pacanka? Novela se na pozadí poutavého příběhu stává kritikou společenských stereotypů a reaguje na aktuální debaty o respektující výchově, sexuálním konsenzu i feminismu.

Pre nich som sa stal číňanom + CD
Neraz nás napadla myšlienka, čo môžeme a máme dať čínskemu ľudu, ktorý vyrástol a žil v duchovnom svete Konfucia. Pri šúdiu sme narazili na Konfuciov výrok, že človek, ktorý sa sprieči najvyššej bytosti, ktorá sa po čínsky volá "Pán neba", a urazí ju, ten sa potom už nadarmo modlí, lebo narušil prirodzený súlad stvorenstva... Vzhľadom na ľudskú slabosť to vyznavačov konfucianizmu neraz viedlo k beznádejnosti, ba až k zúfalstvu. Vtedy sa nám ujasnilo, že Čína potrebuje Ježiša Krista. Potrebuje poznať pravdu o vtelení Božieho Syna, ktorý svojou dobrovoľnou obetou vykúpil ľudstvo z hriechu, ohlasoval zmierenie a odpustenie viny, ktorý každému dáva možnosť obnoviť súlad s Bohom, so svetom i so spoločnosťou... Dôraz na túto pravdu pri misionárskom apoštoláte sme našli aj v čínskych spisoch pátra Freinademetza.

The Essential Harlem Detectives
A friend and contemporary of Richard Wright and James Baldwin - and every bit their equal - Chester Himes was the acclaimed author of literary novels, stories and essays, as well as the classic crime fiction series for which he is best known, featuring detectives Coffin Ed Johnson and Gravedigger Jones.
Himes wrote nine novels in the Harlem Detectives series, and in these four popular, accomplished instalments, his cold, wise-cracking sleuths are thrown into a brutal, murderous world peopled with conniving con men, gut-toting gangsters and opium-smoking preachers. Himes's vision of Harlem's criminal underground, enriched by deft plotting and scintillating dialogue, is both riotous entertainment and penetrating enquiry into the fraught tensions of race in postwar America.

A nagymeNŐ
Mielőtt a világ megismerhette volna Liz Lemont, a Weekend Update című műsort vagy Sarah Palint, Tina Fey csak egy lány volt, akinek volt egy álma: a helyi repülőtéren üldözi őt a felsős tesitanára. Meg volt egy másik álma is, az, hogy egy szép napon humorista lesz a tévében.
Mindkét álma valóra vált.
Most végre megjelenik Tina Fey története. Benne lesznek azok a napok, amikor fiatal volt, bohó, és rendkívül undok, és azok a napok, amikor a Saturday Night Live-val turnézott. Benne lesz, mennyi mindent megtett és nem tett meg azért, hogy tökéletes legyen a megjelenése, és hogy mennyi mindent megevett és nem evett meg a padlóról, amikor kicsi gyerekkel volt otthon. Benne lesz a főiskolai viszonzatlan szerelem, meg a nászút, ami majdnem fatálisnak bizonyult. Benne lesz minden, ennek a fejezetnek a kezdetétől a könyv végéig.
Tina Fey mindent elmesél, és megerősíti, amit mindig is gyanítottunk: csak akkor vagy valaki, ha azt mondják rólad, kekec megalomániás vagy. Főnök.
(A könyv tartalmazza a következő összetevőket: Különleges kéretlen tanácsok a Szoptatásról; Vélemény hercegnőkről; a Photoshopról; a választásokról; és az olasz rumos tortáról!)
Skellig: the 25th anniversary illustrated edition
The bestselling story about love, loss and hope that launched David Almond as one of the best children’s writers of today. Winner of the Carnegie Medal and the Whitbread children’s book of the Year Award, this unforgettable book now has captivating illustrations by Tom de Freston to celebrate its twenty-fifth anniversary.
When a move to a new house coincides with his baby sister’s illness, Michael’s world seems suddenly lonely and uncertain.
One Sunday afternoon, he stumbles into the ramshackle garage of his new home and finds something magical. A strange creature – human? beast? bird? angel? – a being who needs Michael’s help if he is to survive. With his new friend Mina, Michael nourishes Skellig back to health.
But Skellig is far more than he at first appears, and as he helps Michael breathe life into his tiny sister, Michael’s world changes for ever …
Skellig won the Carnegie Medal and the Whitbread Children’s Book Award. David Almond is also winner of the Hans Christian Andersen award, the Nonino International Prize, and has received an OBE for services to literature. He is celebrated as – in the words of the Independent – ‘a master storyteller’.
Deep Blue
Take a deep breath
Steve Backshall was nine years old the first time he saw a shark, while on holiday with his family in Malaysia. It was the beginning of a life-long fascination with these 'lords of the sea', and the oceanic life around them. His career as one of the world's most popular naturalists and explorers has taken him to countless underwater places, many never before seen by others. And he's also been witness to the startling decline in fortune of our oceans' wild inhabitants over the past fifty years.
Deep Blue is a book a lifetime in the making: a remarkable blend of memoir, travel, and marine and environmental science that takes us on an unforgettable tour of the many worlds of aquatic life: from underwater deserts and rainforests to the evolution of ocean heroes like the sea turtle and the Great White, from the genesis of ocean life to the rapidly declining state of white polar seas and coral reefs. It's both a love letter to our precious oceans and rallying cry for what we must to do save them.
Notice
Her name is not Nina, but that's the name she uses sometimes. At her local bar, in the carpark with her tricks, when she needs to score.
She doesn't really need the money. But it lays bare the truth of each loveless transaction. Still living at home, each chance encounter is a route to escape the tedium of her sheltered, suburban existence. One day a man takes her home to meet his beautiful, unhappy wife, Ingrid. She knows she should leave, but instead becomes drawn ever deeper into their games, her suspicions of the terrible secrets they keep mounting with each visit. Caught in a web of fear, intrigue and desire, she will end up in more trouble than she ever bargained for.
Told with perfect restraint and the iciest detachment, Notice is the sickeningly addictive story of a woman on the edge, who does not know how much further yet she could fall. A stark, relentless exploration of power and pursuit, this provocative cult classic will lead you on an unforgettable journey into pitch darkness.
