How to Read Chinese Paintings
The Chinese often use the expression du hua, "to read a painting," in connection with their study and appreciation of such works. This volume closely "reads" thirty-six masterpieces of Chinese painting from the encyclopedic collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in order to reveal the major characteristics and themes of this rich pictorial tradition. The book examines multiple layers of meaning-style, technique, symbolism, past traditions, and the artist's personal circumstances-through accessible texts and numerous large color details. A dynastic chronology, map, and list of further readings supplement the text.
Spanning a thousand years of Chinese art, these landscapes, flowers, birds, figures, religious subjects, and calligraphies illuminate the main goal of every Chinese artist: to capture not only the outer appearance of a subject but also its inner essence.

The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch
In the overcrowded world and cramped space colonies of the late 21st century, tedium can be endured through the use of the drug Can-D, which enables the user to inhabit a shared illusory world. When industrialist Palmer Eldritch returns from an interstellar trip, he brings with him a new drug, Chew-Z, which is far more potent than Can-D, but threatens to plunge the world into a permanent state of drugged illusion controlled by the mysterious Eldritch.
THE THREE STIGMATA OF PALMER ELDRITCH is, by universal consent, one of his three key novels, and the book in which he first took his perennial interest in the fragile nature of reality to a new level of imaginative intensity.

Vražda na Ostrove Camino
Na Ostrove Camino sa môže stať všeličo. Aj vražda uprostred hurikánu. Na prvý pohľad dokonalý zločin.
Majiteľ kníhkupectva Bruce Cable sa pripravuje na návrat úspešnej spisovateľky Mercer Mannovej, keď hurikán Leo nečakane zmení smer a rúti sa rovno na ostrov. Floridský guvernér nariadi povinnú evakuáciu, väčšina obyvateľov preto zabezpečí svoje domy a ujde na pevninu, lenže Bruce sa rozhodne zostať.
Hurikán spôsobí hotovú spúšť – zrovná so zemou domy, zničí hotely a obchody, zaplaví ulice, pripraví o život desiatku ľudí. Jednou z obetí je aj Nelson Kerr, Bruceov priateľ a autor trilerov. Čoskoro však vysvitne, že jeho smrť nezapríčinil nespútaný živel. Obeť utrpela viacero podozrivých úderov do hlavy.
Kto si mohol želať Nelsonovu smrť? Miestna polícia má plné ruky práce s následkami prírodnej katastrofy a nie je schopná riešiť prípad. Bruceovi napadne, či pochybné postavy z Nelsonových románov nemajú základ v skutočnosti. V priateľovom počítači je uložený rukopis nového románu. Ktovie, či sa tam neskrýva kľúč k celému prípadu. Bruce sa pustí do pátrania na vlastnú päsť, a vtedy objaví medzi riadkami čosi, čo prekoná všetky Nelsonove zápletky.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - 4.episode
The summer holidays are dragging on and Harry Potter can't wait for the start of the school year. It is his fourth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and there are spells to be learnt and (unluckily) Potions and Divination lessons to be attended. But Harry can't know that the atmosphere is darkening around him, and his worst enemy is preparing a fate that it seems will be inescapable. With characteristic wit, fast-paced humour and marvellous emotional depth, JK Rowling has proved herself yet again to be a master story-teller. Somewhere in this enchanting mixture is a formula so brilliant it eludes analysis. Rich and demanding stuff." - "Mail on Sunday". ""Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" has finally been unleashed. And is it good? You bet it is. Harry's - and our - fourth year at Hogwarts is funny, full of delicious parodies of our own world, and wildly action-packed." - "Times"."

Harry Potter und der Gefangene
Dass es für ein Buch einen Erstverkaufstag gibt, ist nichts Neues, doch dass sogar eine Erstverkaufsstunde festgelegt wird, das hat es noch nicht gegeben. Als in England der dritte Band der beliebten Harry-Potter-Reihe erschien, wurde, um ein kollektives Schwänzen der Schüler zu vermeiden, bestimmt, dieses Buch nicht vor 16.30 Uhr zu veräußern. Trotzdem war nach wenigen Stunden die erste Auflage restlos ausverkauft. Joanne Rowling knüpft auch in Deutschland mit ihrem neuen Band an ihren bisherigen Erfolg an. Harry ist mittlerweile im dritten Jahr auf der Zauberschule. Er ist so froh wie nie, als die Schule endlich wieder beginnt, denn wieder musste er seine Ferien bei den schrecklichen Dursleys verbringen. Und dann kommt auch noch die fürchterliche Tante Magda zu Besuch. Einfach grässlich. Aus Versehen lässt er sie mit einem kleinen Schwebezauber an die Decke abheben. Eigentlich bricht er damit eine Regel der Zauberer. Aber Harry droht kein Schulverweis, denn das Zauberministerium schützt ihn, da man vermutet, der gefürchtete Verbrecher Sirius Black -- aus dem gut bewachten Gefängnis Askaban entkommen -- ist hinter Harry her. Harry rätselt, was Black mit ihm zu schaffen hat. Bei einem nächtlichen Gespräch erfährt er, dass dieser am Tod seiner Eltern beteiligt war. Joanne Rowling lässt ihre Fantasie Purzelbäume schlagen und als erwachsener Leser kann man sich nur wünschen, immer so jung zu bleiben, dass einem dieses Buch Freude bereitet.
