It`s Raining Men
A summer getaway to remember. But is a holiday romance on the cards…? Best friends from work May, Lara and Clare are desperate for some time away. They have each had a rough time of it lately and need some serious R & R. So they set off to a luxurious spa for ten glorious days, but when they arrive at their destination, it seems it is not the place they thought it was. In fact, they appear to have come to entirely the wrong village… Here in Ren Dullem nothing is quite what it seems; the lovely cobbled streets and picturesque cottages hide a secret that the villagers have been keeping hidden for years. Why is everyone so unfriendly and suspicious? Why does the landlord of their holiday rental seem so rude? And why are there so few women in the village? Despite the strange atmosphere, the three friends are determined to make the best of it and have a holiday to remember. But will this be the break they all need? Or will the odd little village with all its secrets bring them all to breaking point…?

A második kezdet
A három fivér, Beckett, Ryder és Owen Montgomery felújít egy patinás szállodát a szülővárosukban, Boonsboróban.
A Boonsboro Inn régi épülete már két évszázada áll a főtéren, és itt az ideje, hogy ismét a régi fényében ragyogjon. Egyesek szerint az épületben egy kísértet lakik, de úgy tűnik, neki sincs kifogása az átalakítások ellen.
Beckett a családi vállalkozás építésze. Szinte csak a munkájának él, de mindig szakít időt arra, hogy beugorjon egy kávéra a könyvesboltba, amelyet régi középiskolai szerelme, Clare Brewster vezet. Milyen kár, hogy a középiskolában Clare más fiúval járt, és a városból elköltözve Clint Brewster felesége lett!
De talán most eljön a második kezdet - nemcsak a régi fogadó történetében, hanem az ő kapcsolatukban is.

Tess of the D`Urbervilles
"I would be content, ay, glad, to live with you as your servant, if I may not as your wife; so that I could only be near you, and get glimpses of you, and think of you as mine...I long for only one thing in heaven or earth or under the earth, to meet you, my own dear! Come to me - come to me, and save me from what threatens me"! When Tess Durbeyfield is driven by family poverty to claim kinship with the wealthy D'Urbervilles and seek a portion of their family fortune, meeting her 'cousin' Alec proves to be her downfall. A very different man, Angel Clare, seems to offer her love and salvation, but Tess must choose whether to reveal her past or remain silent in the hope of a peaceful future. With its sensitive depiction of the wronged Tess and powerful criticism of social convention, "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" is one of the most moving and poetic of Hardy's novels. The Penguin English Library - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.

And the Ass Saw the Angel
Nick Cave's And The Ass Saw the Angel - part of the limited edition PENGUIN STREET ART series: timeless writing, enduring design.
Outcast, mute, a lone twin cut from a drunk mother in a shack full of junk, Euchrid Eucrow of Ukulore inhabits a nightmarish Southern valley of preachers and prophets, incest and ignorance. When the God-fearing folk of the town declare a foundling child to be chosen by the Almighty, Euchrid is disturbed. He sees her very differently, and his conviction, and increasing isolation and insanity, may have terrible consequences for them both . . .
'As if a Faulkner novel had been crossed with Whistle Down the Wind and then narrated by a stoned blues musician' Daily Telegraph
Nick Cave was born in Australia in 1957. He moved to London with his band The Birthday Party in 1980. Four years later he founded The Bad Seeds, with whom he has made many albums. The fifteenth, Push the Sky Away, was released to great acclaim in February 2013. Cave has also written the music for several films including The Assassination of Jesse James and Lawless. And the Ass Saw the Angel was first published in 1989 and quickly became a cult classic. His second novel, The Death of Bunny Munro, was published in 2009.
The PENGUIN STREET ART series marries timeless writing with enduring design. Some of the world's leading street artists have designed new covers especially for ten classic contemporary books from Penguin: Hawksmoor by Peter Ackroyd / Armadillo by William Boyd / And The Ass Saw the Angel by Nick Cave / What a Carve Up by Jonathan Coe / Americana by Don DeLillo / Then We Came to the End by Joshua Ferris / The Reluctant Fundamentalistby Mohsin Hamid / The Believers by Zoe Heller /How to Be Good by Nick Hornby / Lights out for the Territory by Iain Sinclair

Lacná kniha Lolita (nemecky) (-70%)
Der Roman schildert die unselige Leidenschaft des 1910 in Frankreich geborenen Literaturwissenschaftlers und Privatlehrers Humbert Humbert zu der kindhaften und gleichzeitig frühreifen 12-jährigen Dolores (Lolita) Haze. Humbert Humbert ist Mädchen zwischen neun und vierzehn Jahren verfallen; deren vollkommene Inkarnation findet er in Lolita. Um in ihrer Nähe bleiben zu können, heiratet er ihre Mutter, die Witwe Charlotte Haze; er verursacht indirekt deren Tod und beginnt mit Lolita - aus Furcht vor Entdeckung seiner verbotenen Leidenschaft - ein unstetes Reiseleben durch die USA. Humbert Humbert stellt bald fest, dass sie verfolgt werden, und eines Tages ist Lolita, offenbar mit dem Verfolger im Bunde, verschwunden. Als er sie nach Jahren wiedersieht - verheiratet, schwanger und in ärmlichen Verhältnissen lebend -, weigert sie sich, zu ihm zurückzukehren, doch gelingt es ihm, den Namen des damaligen Nebenbuhlers zu erfahren. Es ist der Dramatiker Clare Quilty, den er in einer furiosen Racheszene erschiesst. Mit sprachlicher und stilistischer Virtuosität geschrieben, zahlreiche literarische Anspielungen aufweisend und mit distanzierender Ironie unterlegt, ist der Roman weder Schilderung der Überschreitung moralischer Schranken noch Diagnose einer dekadenten Epoche, sondern am ehesten die Geschichte einer tragischen Leidenschaft, die ihren Gegenstand - wenn überhaupt - nur um den Preis der Zerstörung erreichen kann. Versuche, den Roman allegorisch zu deuten, wonach sein Thema v. a. in der Konfrontation des alten Europa (Humbert Humbert) mit dem jungen Amerika (Lolita) zu sehen sei, hat Nabokov zurückgewiesen.

Paris est une Fete
Au cours de l'été 1957, Hemingway commença à travailler sur les "Vignettes parisiennes", comme il appelait alors Paris est une fête. Il y travailla à Cuba et à Ketchum, et emporta même le manuscrit avec lui en Espagne pendant l'été 59, puis à Paris, à l'automne de cette même année. Le livre, qui resta inachevé, fut publié de manière posthume en 1964. Pendant les trois années, ou presque, qui s'écoulent entre la mort de l'auteur et la première publication, le manuscrit subit d'importants amendements de la main des éditeurs. Se trouve aujourd'hui restitué et présenté pour la première fois le texte manuscrit original tel qu'il était au moment de la mort de l'écrivain en 1961. Ainsi, "Le poisson-pilote et les riches", l'un des textes les plus personnels et intéressants, retrouve ici ces passages, supprimés par les premiers éditeurs, dans lesquels Hemingway assume la responsabilité d'une rupture amoureuse, exprime ses remords ou encore parle de "l'incroyable bonheur" qu'il connut avec Pauline, sa deuxième épouse. Quant à "Nada y pues nada", autre texte inédit et capital, écrit en trois jours en 1961, il est le reflet de l'état d'esprit de l'écrivain au moment de la rédaction, trois semaines seulement avant une tentative de suicide. Hemingway y déclare qu'il était né pour écrire, qu'il "avait écrit et qu'il écrirait encore".

Chicago
America’s third largest city is a veritable textbook of architectural styles. Long known as the birthplace of the skyscraper and modern architecture, Chicago’s buildings rise brilliantly and brazenly from the plains to declare their importance to the world. The city’s renown for twentieth century architecture often diverts attention from more recently constructed buildings. teNeues presents another in its series of authoritative pocket guides to fill that void, highlighting several of the city’s newest and most interesting structures by such architects as Rafael Vi&241&894oly, Rem Koolhaas and Frank Gehry. Each building is profiled in a two-page spread and a site map is included at the end of the book.

Life on Air
Sir David Attenborough is Britain's best-known natural history film-maker. His career as a naturalist and broadcaster has spanned nearly six decades, and in this volume of memoirs Sir David tells stories of the people and animals he has met and the places he has visited.
His first job - after Cambridge University and two years in the Royal Navy - was at a London publishing house. Then in 1952 he joined the BBC as a trainee producer, and it was while working on the Zoo Quest series (1954-64) that he had his first opportunity to undertake expeditions to remote parts of the globe, to capture intimate footage of rare wildlife in its natural habitat. He was Controller of BBC2 (1965-68), during which time he introduced colour television to Britain, then Director of Programmes for the BBC (1969-1972). However, in 1973 he abandoned administration altogether to return to documentary-making and writing, and has established himself as the world's leading Natural History programme maker with several landmark BBC series, including Life on Earth (1979), The Living Planet (1984), The Trials of Life (1990), The Private Life of Plants (1995), Life of Birds (1998), The Blue Planet (2001), Life of Mammals (2002), Planet Earth (2006) and Life in Cold Blood (2008).
Sir David is an Honorary Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge, a Fellow of the Royal Society and was knighted in 1985. He is also Britain's most respected, trusted and lauded natural history broadcaster and writer, championing conservation and standing at the forefront of issues concerning the planet's declining species. A lot has changed since his first television documentary, and in this updated edition of Life on Air Sir David tells us of his experiences of filming in the 21st century.

The LAPD are quick to declare the death as a suicide, but Harry Bosch is not so sure. There are odd, unexplained details from the crime scene which just don't add up. Fighting an attraction to the cop's widow, Bosh starts his own maverick investigation, which soon leads him over the borders, and into a dangerous world of shifting identities and deadly corruption...

Anatomy of a Scandal

A savage indictment of class, privilege and toxic masculinity in Britain ... Almost impossible to put down' Louise O'Neill 'Deftly plotted ... with an eerie relevance to the current debate surrounding the attitudes to and experiences of women in Westminster, Hollywood and beyond' Laura Barnett `The best courtroom drama since Apple Tree Yard ... sensational' Clare Mackintosh A high-profile marriage thrust into the spotlight. A wife, determined to keep her family safe, must face a prosecutor who believes justice has been a long time coming. A scandal that will rock Westminster. And the women caught at the heart of it. Anatomy of a Scandal centres on a high-profile marriage that begins to unravel when the husband is accused of a terrible crime. Sophie is sure her husband, James, is innocent and desperately hopes to protect her precious family from the lies which might ruin them. Kate is the barrister who will prosecute the case - she is equally certain that James is guilty and determined he will pay for his crimes. `A compelling and cautionary story about how we can never truly know someone else; how even after twelve years of marriage, a wife might not know everything about her husband.

Superpower
America will remain the world s only superpower for the foreseeable future. But what sort of superpower? What role should America play in the world?What role do you want America to play? Ian Bremmer argues that Washington s directionless foreign policy has become prohibitively expensive and increasingly dangerous. Since the end of the Cold War, U.S. policymakers have stumbled from crisis to crisis in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, and Ukraine without a clear strategy. Ordinary Americans too often base their foreign policy choices on allegiance or opposition to the party in power. We can no longer afford this complacency, especially now that both parties are deeply divided about America s role in the world. The next presidential election could easily pit an interventionist Democrat against an isolationist Republican or the exact opposite. As 2016 rapidly approaches, Bremmer urges every American to think more deeply about what sort of country America should be and how it should use its superpower status. He explores three options: Independent America asserts that it s time for America to declare independence from the responsibility to solve other people s problems. Instead, Americans should lead by example in part, by investing in the country s vast untapped potential. Moneyball America acknowledges that Washington can t meet every international challenge. With a clear-eyed assessment of U.S. strengths and limitations, we must look beyond empty arguments over exceptionalism and American values. The priorities must be to focus on opportunities and to defend U.S. interests where they re threatened. Indispensable America argues that only America can defend the values on which global stability increasingly depends. In today s interdependent, hyperconnected world, a turn inward would undermine America s own security and prosperity. We will never live in a stable world while others are denied their most basic freedoms from China to Russia to the Middle East and beyond. There are sound arguments for and against each of these choices, but we must choose. Washington can no longer improvise a foreign policy without a lasting commitment to a coherent strategy. As Bremmer notes, When I began writing this book, I didn t know which of these three choices I would favor. It s easy to be swayed by pundits and politicians with a story to sell or an ax to grind. My attempt to make the most honest and forceful case I could make for each of these three arguments helped me understand what I believe and why I believe it. I hope it will do the same for you. I don t ask you to agree with me. I ask only that you choose. "

Lazarus-vendetta
A valaha józanul gondolkodó, békés környezetvédők vezette globalizációellenes mozgalom vezetői sorban tűnnek el nyom nélkül. A Santa-fében működő Teller Intézet nanotechnológiai részlegében bekövetkező szörnyű baleset a környezetért küzdő tüntetők életét követeli.
Valóban baleset történt, vagy a Lazarus Mozgalom vezetője képes feláldozni saját híveit, hogy a már bomlottsággal határos elméjében megszületett álmot megvalósítsa? A CIA, az FBI és az amerikai katonai hírszerzés kudarcot vall, képtelen a titokzatos, magát csak Lazarusnak nevező személy vagy csoport nyomára bukkanni. A világ különböző részein emberek százezrei válnak áldozatává a gyilkos nanoszerkezeteknek, politikai szövetségesei pedig kezdenek Amerika ellen fordulni. A hatalmas felfordulásban pedig egyre bizonyosabbá válik, hogy mindez még csak a kezdet, hogy Lazarus, aki mindvégig a háttérből mozgatja a szálakat, valami szörnyű dologra készül.
A Covert One vezetője új megbízást ad a Hádész-faktorból és a Kasszandra-szerződésből már ismerős Jon Smithnek. Az orvos ezredesre és két barátjára, az MI6 nyugalmazott kommandósára, Peter Howellre és Randi Russell CIA-ügynökre vár a feladat, hogy megtalálják és leleplezzék a titokzatos Lazarust, és elejét vegyék annak, hogy végrehajtsa szörnyű tervét, amely emberek milliárdjainak életét veszélyezteti, és akár örökre megváltoztathatja a földi életet.

Alisonnak mindene megvan. Odaadó férje, imádnivaló kislánya, felfelé ívelő karrierje – épp most kapta meg az első gyilkossági ügyet, amiben a védelmet képviseli. De nem minden az, aminek látszik. Csak még egy éjszaka, és véget vetek az egésznek. Alison túl sokat iszik, elhanyagolja a családját, és viszonya van egy kollégájával, aki feszegeti a határokat, amelyeket Alison már nem képes elviselni. Megtettem. Megöltem őt. Le kellene, hogy csukjanak. Alison ügyfele nem tagadja, hogy megkéselte a férjét. Be akarja ismerni a bűnösségét. De valami nem stimmel a történetében. Ha Alison megmenti ezt a nőt, az az első lépés lehet, hogy saját magát is megmentse. Figyellek. Tudom, mit csinálsz. De valaki ismeri Alison titkait. Valaki, aki azt akarja, hogy megfizessen, és aki nem áll meg addig, amíg Alison mindent el nem veszít. Egy felzaklató, ugyanakkor lenyűgöző történet a félelem erejéről, a vágyról, a féltékenységről és az árulásról, szerelemről és gyűlöletről. A Vérnarancs Harriet Tyce nagyszerű bemutatkozó regénye, mely meglepő, új hangot hoz az olyan pszichológiai thrillerek világába, mint amilyen a Bujdokló szenvedély vagy a Holtodiglan.„Egy ?remek thriller összetett és lenyűgöző karakterekkel.” – Clare Mackintosh, bestsellerszerző „Egy sötét és nyugtalanító thriller.” – Luise Jensen bestsellerszerző
