Kapcsolatok szivárványa
Voltak olyan korok, amikor az azonos nemûek szerelme elfogadott volt. Vajon hogy lehet, hogy most, a 21. században mégse tudunk mit kezdeni ezzel a dologgal? Miért van az, hogy sokan még ma is csak a különbségeket akarják látni, legyen szó akár vallásról, bõrszínrõl vagy szexuális orientációról? Sokan óvtak attól, hogy megírjam ezt a könyvet. Azt mondták, nem olyan világban élünk, hogy ilyenekrõl beszélni lehessen. Én mégis azt hiszem, hogy az emberi érzéseknek, az emberi életek tanulságainak, az ember drámáinak, dilemmáinak és örömeinek mindig és mindenkor helye van, mert talán ezek a legfontosabbak az életben. Remélem, hogy ez a könyv sokaknak jelent majd segítséget, kapaszkodót és ad erõt, hogy mindenbõl, a legnehezebb élethelyzetekbõl is van kiút. Fenntartásokkal vettem kezembe ezt a könyvet. Nem szeretem a klikkesedést, és vallom, hogy akkor lesz majd jó világ, ha nem kell olyan könyveknek születnie, mint ez a mostani. De sajnos még kell. Érzõdik a hangomban a sértettség? Talán én is sebzett vagyok? Nem tagadom. Nem egyszerû mindennap úgy kimenni az utcára, hogy legalább egyszer ne azt halljad: ?Ott jön az a buzi a tévébõl!? Én mégis mindenkinek azt tanácsolom, hogy inkább ugorjon össze a gyomra egy beszólástól, minthogy egész életében ökölbe szoruljon a fel nem vállalt élete miatt? Amikor elkezdtem olvasni ezeket az interjúkat, beszippantott, sõt beindított a sok különbözõ hang. Egyre inkább úgy éreztem, hogy az egész rólam szól. Mondatok, gondolatok, apák, anyák, hülye helyzetek, szorongások, szépségek, a vágy titokzatos tárgyai, szex, szemétség, szerelem, szatíra? Heterók, biszexek, melegek és egyéb állatfajták egyaránt megtalálják a saját mondataikat ezekben a sztorikban korra, nemre való tekintet nélkül. Lenyûgözõ, hogy megismételhetetlen életeink mennyire összeforrnak a többiek sorsával, mások történetével. Ez villanyozott fel igazán! Mert eszembe jutott az elsõ ?barinõm? az oviból, meg az ?ikernõvérem? a gimibõl, akivel csókolóztam, és megrémültem, mert tudtam, hogy egészen másra gondolunk csók közben. És bevillant a tornaöltözõ, ahol hideg verejtékben fürödtem kövér kisfiúként, miközben a nyolcadikos srácok elõttünk öltöztek át, és disznó vicceket mesélve röhögtek. És persze elõbújt az emlékeim közül a jelenet, amikor Spanyolországba költöztem, és apám a gyorsforgalmi úton a reptér felé megkérdezte, hogy akkor végül is meleg vagyok-e. És persze az anyámnak írt levél Madridból, mert neki mégis inkább tartoztam ezzel a vallomással. Aztán az elsõ látogatásom a picike melegbárban, biológiakönyvemmel a k

The Day the World Stops Shopping
We can't stop shopping but we must stop shopping - the consumer dilemma that defines our lives and our future. What would happen if we did?
We are using up the planet at almost double the rate it can regenerate. To support our economies, we're told we must shop now like we've never shopped before, yet the scale of our consumption remains the biggest factor in the ruination of the world.
But what would life look like if we stopped? Visiting places where economies have experienced temporary shut-downs, artisan producers, zero-consumption societies and bringing together a host of expert views, this is both a history of our relationship with consumption and a story about the future.
Ambassador 8: The Alabaster Army
Deadly creatures, hostile climate, and that is just the scenery.
For many years, mysterious things have happened on the ice world of Tamer, but when a scientist goes missing from Barresh thought to be on Tamer, Cory is forced to take the issue by the horns.
Problem is, he is dealing with unexpected side effects of his fertility treatment, and, like his Coldi companions, he's lost much of his night vision, and has trouble tolerating low temperatures.
Trouble is, a recent addition to his team has sent shockwaves through his group of loyal companions and things are still sorting themselves out.
Not his healthy self, under-resourced, frozen and half-blind, that's not the best preparation to visit a world where humans are not at the top of the food chain, let alone dealing with enemies who will go to any lengths to hide their activities.

Take Your Breath Away
It's always the husband, isn't it?
When his wife Brie vanishes from their home one night, never to be seen again, people assume Andy got away with murder. The police can't build a case against him, but still his friends and neighbours abandon him.
Six years later, Andy's life is back on track, and he's settled with a new girlfriend. And when he hears his old house has been bulldozed and rebuilt, he's not bothered. Things are good.
But then one day, a woman who looks like Brie shows up at their old address, screaming 'Where's my house? What happened to my house?' before vanishing as quickly as she appeared.
And as dark suspicions resurface, Andy's future depends on discovering what the hell is going on. The trick is staying alive long enough to find out...

Fire & Ice
"Love the story, characters and the writing." --Kevin J. Anderson
Where magic is dark and gritty, characters troubled and twisted, and victory comes at a heavy price.
Deep under the City of Glass in the frozen southern land, an age-old machine called the Heart of the City radiates a power which locals call icefire. Most citizens are immune to it, but a few, always born with physical disabilities, can bend it to their will. For fifty years, the ruling Eagle Knights, who fly on the back of giant birds, have killed these Imperfects, fearing the return of the old royal family, who used icefire to cut out people's hearts, turning them into ghostly servitors.
The old king's grandson Tandor only sees the good things icefire brought: power and technology now forgotten while the people of the south live in dire poverty. He's had enough of seeing his fellow kinsfolk slaughtered by ignorant Knights, of Imperfect babies being abandoned on the ice floes to be eaten by wild animals. His grandfather's diary tells him how to increase the beat of the Heart the first step to making the land glorious once more. Arrogant as he is, he sets the machine in motion. All he needs is an army of Imperfect servitors to control the resulting power.
Isandor is Imperfect, an ex-Knight apprentice, betrayed by his best friend and running for his life.
The queen Jevaithi is Imperfect, living like a prisoner amidst leering Knights, surviving only because the common people would rebel if their beloved queen were harmed.
Both are young and desperate and should be grateful that Tandor wants to rescue them from their hopeless situations. Or so he thinks. The youngsters, however, have no inclination to become heartless ghosts, but while they defy Tandor, the Heart beats, and he alone cannot control its power.

The First Thing About You
Fans of John Green, Sara Barnard and Adam Silvera will love this contemporary YA that is packed with humour and heart.
A high school student with spinal muscular atrophy is determined to reinvent himself.
When new-boy Harris meets cute-girl-in-his-class Nory, he is determined to prove he is more than just the kid in the powered wheelchair. Luckily, he has a secret weapon. His new nurse Miranda.
Beautiful and confident, Miranda sees Harris for who he really is - funny, smart and totally worthy of Nory's affections. It seems everything is working out for Harris for once. But Miranda has her own demons, and Harris starts to wonder if she has his best interests at heart.
Still Alice
A moving and insightful story of a woman with early onset Alzheimer's disease, now a major film starring Academy Award nominee Julianne Moore and Kristen Stewart. Alice Howland is proud of the life she worked so hard to build. At fifty, she's a cognitive psychology professor at Harvard and a renowned expert in linguistics, with a successful husband and three grown children. When she begins to grow forgetful and disoriented, she dismisses it for as long as she can until a tragic diagnosis changes her life - and her relationship with her family and the world around her - for ever. Unable to care for herself, Alice struggles to find meaning and purpose as her concept of self gradually slips away. But Alice is a remarkable woman, and her family learn more about her and each other in their quest to hold on to the Alice they know. Her memory hanging by a frayed thread, she is living in the moment, living for each day. But she is still Alice.

In the Land of the Cyclops
A brilliantly wide-ranging essay collection from the author of My Struggle, spanning literature, philosophy, art and how our daily and creative lives intertwine.
In the Land of the Cyclops is Karl Ove Knausgaard's first collection of essays to be published in English, and these brilliant and wide-ranging pieces meditate on themes familiar from his groundbreaking fiction.
Here, Knausgaard discusses Madame Bovary, the Northern Lights, Ingmar Bergman, and the work of an array of writers and visual artists, including Knut Hamsun, Michel Houellebecq, Anselm Kiefer and Cindy Sherman.
These essays beautifully capture Knausgaard's ability to mediate between the deeply personal and the universal, demonstrating his trademark self-scrutiny and his deep longing to authentically see, understand, and experience the world.

Epiphany
About the Book: All intellectual life search for a meaning in life. I also have been searching it; sometimes, I found it in revolution and love, most of the time life seems so meaningless in abstract ways. we create illusion of meanings to go on. if I were born in different time, I must have been a revolutionary; or a great lover. this darkness inside me is born out of memories and tragedies, not ashamed of it, I have embraced it. You will see these reflections in my writing, I won't call myself 'a poet' because I am more than that.
About The Author: I am Jitendra kumar sharma ( Jeitendra Sharma), I don't know whether I should call myself 'a poet' or not; I love to read a lot, all memories, tragedies and imaginations create poetry for me. I hope, You will find all emotions in these poems.

Édith Piaf és a szerelem dala
""A BOLDOGSÁGÉRT KÖNNYEKKEL KELL FIZETNI."
ÉDITH PIAF
Párizs, 1944. Miután véget ér Franciaország német megszállása, Édith Piafot kollaborációval vádolják a francia hatóságok, és az énekesnő attól tart, hogy fellépési tilalommal fogják sújtani. Miközben bizonyítani igyekszik, hogy ártatlan, megismerkedik Yves Montand-nal, egy sete-suta, de tehetséges fiatal énekessel. Tanítani kezdi, és a két sanzonénekesből hamar szerelmespár lesz. Az Yves oldalán megélt boldogság Édithet egy dal írására inspriálja. Így születik meg a La vie en rose (Az élet rózsaszínben) - a sanzon, amely legendássá teszi az énekesnőt.
Édith Piaf - akihez foghatóan senki sem testesítette meg az élet bátor akarását, és aki sem a művészetében, sem az életében nem ismert korlátokat."
