Wild Grass
'Illuminating ... Johnson has not only lifted a corner of the curtain which covers China's reality beyond its glittering eastern cities; he has drawn the whole curtain' The Times Literary Supplement
In Wild Grass, Pulitzer Prize-winning Ian Johnson describes a China caught between the desire for change percolating up from below and the ossified political structure above. He recounts the stories of three ordinary people who find themselves finding oppression and government corruption, risking imprisonment and even death. A young architecture student, a bereaved daughter, and a peasant legal clerk are the unlikely heroes of these stories, private citizens cast by unexpected circumstances into surprising roles.

The Man Who Died Twice
The second gripping novel in the New York Times bestselling Thursday Murder Club series, the first of which Kate Atkinson called "A little beacon of pleasure in the midst of the gloom. . . SUCH FUN!"
Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim—the Thursday Murder Club—are still riding high off their recent real-life murder case and are looking forward to a bit of peace and quiet at Cooper’s Chase, their posh retirement village.
But they are out of luck.
An unexpected visitor—an old pal of Elizabeth’s (or perhaps more than just a pal?)—arrives, desperate for her help. He has been accused of stealing diamonds worth millions from the wrong men and he’s seriously on the lam.
Then, as night follows day, the first body is found. But not the last. Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim are up against a ruthless murderer who wouldn’t bat an eyelid at knocking off four septuagenarians. Can our four friends catch the killer before the killer catches them? And if they find the diamonds, too? Well, wouldn’t that be a bonus? You should never put anything beyond the Thursday Murder Club.
Richard Osman is back with everyone’s favorite mystery-solving quartet, and the second installment of The Thursday Murder Club series is just as clever and warm as the first—an unputdownable, laugh-out-loud pleasure of a read.

Not Alone
Five years ago, a toxic microplastics storm killed most of the population. Now Katie, a young mother, must forage and hunt the few surviving animals for meat as she attempts to feed her little boy, Harry. At a time when stepping outside could kill you, Harry is kept indoors at all costs, never venturing beyond the door to their one-bedroom flat.
Bodies begin to build up around them and layers of poisonous dust hang heavily in the air, seeping into the soil and slowly killing anything attempting to cling onto the natural world. Then, after years without human contact, Katie and Harry are terrified by the unwelcome arrival of another survivor. Katie realises she must undertake a previously unthinkable journey in search of the man she was supposed to marry and a new life for her son. But outside their safe haven, Katie and Harry encounter a dangerous world that is forever changed.

„Éles, jó humorú sztori a kora harmincasok szerelmeiről és veszteségeiről.” - Sunday Times
„Egészen briliáns. Dolly igazi élmény, ahogyan a szerelmet, a vágyakozást, a barátságot és úgy általában az emberi érzelmek terepét kommentálja. Hihetetlenül imádom!” - Marian Keyes
Nina Dean harmincas éveinek első felét tapossa, sikeres gasztroíró, szeretik őt a barátai és a családtagjai, új lakásba költözött, a város másik kerületébe. Amikor találkozik Maxszel, az elbűvölő romantikus hőssel, aki az első randin közli vele, hogy feleségül fogja venni, Ninának úgy tűnik, minden terv szerint megy.
Az új kapcsolat a legjobbkor jött – mióta betöltötte a harmincat, messze nem érezte magát olyan jól a bőrében, mint arra előzőleg számított. Bármerre nézett, a dolgok az idő múlására, a lehetőségek fogyatkozására emlékeztették. A baráti szálak meglazultak, az ex-pasik továbbléptek, és, ami a legrosszabb, mindenki távoli kertvárosokba költözött. A szülők se jelentenek támaszt, Nina apja lassan átadja magát a leépülésnek, az anyja meglepő frizurával és ruházattal kísérletezik.
Tényleg Max lenne a megoldás?

The Covent Garden Ladies
In 1757, a down-and-out Irish poet, the head waiter at the Shakespear's Head Tavern in Covent Garden, and a celebrated London courtesan became bound together by the publication of a little book: Harris's List of Covent Garden Ladies. This salacious work - detailing the names and 'specialities' of the capital's sex-workers- became one of the eighteenth century's most scandalous bestsellers.
Yet beyond its titillating passages lies a glimpse into the lives of those who lived and died by its profits - a tragicomic opera of the Georgian era, motivated by poverty, passionate love, aspiration and shame.
In this modern and visceral narrative, historian Hallie Rubenhold reveals the story behind Harris's List of Covent Garden Ladies, and the legion of ordinary women whose lives in the sex trade history has chosen to ignore.

Confabulation: An Anecdotal Autobiography By Dave Gibbons
This comprehensive, in-depth, and personal journey through the eyes of one of the world's most famous comics creators, Dave Gibbons, spans his earliest years copying Superman and Batman comics as a kid, to co-creating the bestselling graphic novel of all-time, Watchmen, and beyond.
Presented alphabetically, with informally written anecdotes that can be read from cover-to-cover or simply dipped into, Gibbons reveals unseen comics' pitches, life as the first Comics Laureate, and going from being a fanzine artist to infiltrating DC Comics in the 1970s. The book covers everything from working on Doctor Who and meeting Tom Baker to being inducted into the Eisner Hall of Fame. Gibbons also discusses, for the first time anywhere, the reasons why he and fellow Watchmen co-creator Alan Moore no longer speak. Packed with over 300 iconic, rarely seen, and unpublished art pieces and photographs, Confabulation: An Anecdotal Autobiography not only entertains, but peels back the layers of a fascinating career in comics.

Cleopatra: Her History, Her Myth
The siren passionately in love with Mark Antony, the seductress who allegedly rolled out of a carpet she had herself smuggled in to see Caesar, Cleopatra is a figure shrouded in myth. Beyond the legends immortalized by Plutarch, Shakespeare, George Bernard Shaw, and others, there are no journals or letters written by Cleopatra herself. All we have to tell her story are words written by others. What has it meant for our understanding of Cleopatra to have had her story told by writers who had a political agenda, authors who distrusted her motives, and historians who believed she was a liar?
Francine Prose delves into ancient Greek and Roman literary sources, as well as modern representations of Cleopatra in art, theater, and film, to challenge narratives driven by orientalism and misogyny and offer a new interpretation of Cleopatra's history through the lens of our current era.

Nagypapa a bőröndben
"Aki ismeri a költő korábbi, évtizedekkel ezelőtti színművét, az atomfélelemmel és bunkerral is kacagtató sorsszimfóniát, a 80 liter levegőt, annak nem lesz újdonság Lezsák Sándor új darabjának sírásban-nevetésben, vagyis a groteszkben csúcsosodó komédiája. Aki viszont most találkozik először a költő ilyesfajta felhőtlen játékával - furcsán hangozhatik, ám komorabb hangja ellenére a történelmet búvárló Csaba királyfi a friss drámának valamiképp előzménye -, az is jól elszórakozhat a 20-21. század közép-európai valóságának a furcsaságain.
Mert a Nagypapa a bőröndben - szerzője népszínműnek mondja - nem más, mint Kárpát-medencei kórkép, nagyon is életszerű valóságdarabokkal (falurombolás, elvándorlás, besúgások rettenete, stb.) megtűzdelve. Legjózanabb, legigazabb szereplője, a zsákfalu sokat szenvedett, megalázott, halálba kergetett mesteréért mindig kiálló, fehér köpenyben a beteg emberiséget gyógyító "bolond", kinek csörgősipkája nem más, mint életszeretet. Kacajos hangulata ellenére is félelmetes látlelet a magyarságvállalás, a szülőföldön való maradásról, az igaztalant a feledés kráterjába taszító közösség (akár Erdély) mindennapjairól."(Szakolczay Lajos)
