Phosphorescence
Julia Baird's intimate study of phosphorescence is full of wisdom and joy; a roadmap for rediscovering our inner light after the darkest of times.
We now know just how much we should treasure the times when we feel happy, content and at peace. When we feel this way we seek out life's experiences with a sense of optimism and hope. But how do we move forward with life now that everything has changed? Now that we appreciate just how fragile and fleeting these feelings can be? Is it possible to access a light - our own source of phosphorescence - that can sustain us in this brave new world?
In this wise and inspiring book, bestselling author Julia Baird reflects on her encounters with phosphorescence, a luminescent phenomenon found in the nature, and how she was able to cultivate her own 'inner light' in the face of a life-threatening illness.
When we spend time in nature, humble ourselves to the mystery of the world, and recognise the 'soothing power of the ordinary', we are able to discover hidden sources of strength and resilience. It is these experiences that sustain us, help us place one foot in front of the other and cultivate our own essential light which will light our path in good times and bad.
The Weight of Love
London, 1996. Robin and Ruth meet in the staff room of an East London school. Robin, desperate for a real connection, instantly falls in love. Ruth, recently bereaved and fragile, is tentative.
When Robin introduces Ruth to his childhood friend, Joseph, a tortured and talented artist, their attraction is instant. Powerless, Robin watches on as the girl he loves and his best friend begin a passionate and turbulent affair.
Dublin 2017. Robin and Ruth are married and have a son, Sid, who is about to emigrate to Berlin. Theirs is a marriage haunted by the ghost of Joseph and as the distance between them grows, Robin makes a choice that could have potentially devastating consequences.
The Weight of Love is a beautiful exploration of how we manage life when the notes and beats of our existence, so carefully arranged, begin to slip off the stave. An intimate and moving account of the intricacies of marriage and the myriad ways in which we can love and be loved.

The Necromancer’s Daughter
Queen Johanna's position in Saardam is fragile. The Barons and Kings of the countries in the hinterland are not happy that she helped the royal family to survive and is now about to ensure the next generation. They vow to teach this little upstart country a lesson for once and for all. Of course it is not so much about petty rivalry, but about access to the sea port that connects the hinterland with the lucrative ocean trade.
Johanna knows that if it came to a fight Saardam could never survive, so she has invited all the heads of state and other important people for talks to invest in the city's shattered infrastructure for the benefit of all. As a congregation of royal families gathers such as the lowlands have never seen, the magicians travelling with the esteemed guests prepare the final and most insidious attempt to get control of the upstart little country and its usurper, commoner queen: through her baby daughter.

The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism
From the author of The Shifts and the Shocks, and one of the most influential writers on economics, a reckoning with how and why the relationship between democracy and capitalism is coming undone
We are living in an age when economic failings have shaken faith in global capitalism. Political failings have undermined trust in liberal democracy and in the very notion of truth. The ties that ought to bind open markets to free and fair elections are being strained and rejected, even in democracy's notional heartlands. Around the world, democratic capitalism, which depends on the determined separation of power from wealth, is in crisis. Some now argue that capitalism is better without democracy; others that democracy is better without capitalism.
This book is a forceful rejoinder to both views. It analyses how the marriage between capitalism and democracy has become so fraught and yet insists that a divorce would be an almost unimaginable calamity. Martin Wolf, one of the wisest public voices on global affairs, argues that for all its recent failings - slowing growth, increasing inequality, widespread popular disillusion - democratic capitalism, though inherently fragile, remains the best system we know for human flourishing. Capitalism and democracy are complementary opposites: they need each other if either is to thrive. Wolf's superb exploration of their marriage shows us how citizenship and a shared faith in the common good are not romantic slogans but the essential foundation of our economic and political freedom.
Vaříme podle Herbáře 4
Nejen do třetice bývá všeho dobrého, ale může tak být i do čtveřice, jak dokládá tento, v pořadí již čtvrtý svazek oblíbené lifestylové kuchařky. A co je v něm dobrého? Je to tradice osvědčené nápaditosti v podání dvou protagonistek televizního pořadu Herbář. Je to harmonické souznění s přírodou, jejími cykly, proměnami v průběhu roku a užitek z jejích plodů. Je to vnímavá úcta k životu předků, k jejich dílu, důmyslu a fortelu, ale i k jejich způsobu obživy. To vše se promítá v pestré škále bezmála dvou stovek receptů, jež autorky sesbíraly z nejrůznějších zdrojů, především domácích, vyzkoušely je a předvedly naživo na televizní obrazovce. Jsou mezi nimi pokrmy z masa, zeleniny, ovoce a bylin, pečivo, nápoje, sladkosti. Skvosty lidové kuchyně, jako boží milosti, frgále, hoďbidlo, kucmoch, pražmo, pučálka a mnoho dalších, a k tomu trocha světové exotiky, jako ramen, kuře v seně nebo chimichurri. Jídla prostá i slavnostní. Vše v rytmu ročních dob a v duchu zdravé výživy a opravdového pochutnání. A stejně jako v předchozích svazcích je doplněn malý herbář se spoustou užitečných informací o rostlinách a plodech, jež se významně uplatní nejen v naší kuchyni.
Persepolis Rising
Persepolis Rising is the seventh novel in the New York Times bestselling and Hugo-award winning Expanse series.
In the thousand-sun network of humanity's expansion, new colony worlds are struggling to find their way. Every new planet lives on a knife-edge between collapse and wonder, and the crew of the ageing gunship Rocinante have their hands more than full keeping the fragile peace.
In the vast space between Earth and Jupiter, the inner planets and the Belt have formed a tentative and uncertain alliance, still haunted by a history of wars and prejudices. On the lost colony world of Laconia, a hidden enemy has a new vision for all of humanity - and the power to enforce it.
New technologies clash with old, as the history of human conflict returns to its ancient pattern of war and subjugation. But human nature is not the only enemy, and the forces being unleashed have their own price. A price that will change the shape of humanity - and of the Rocinante - unexpectedly and for ever . . .

The Challenge
In this thrilling novel from the world’s favourite storyteller, Danielle Steel, a small community is tested when their children go missing while exploring a dangerous local peak, forcing them to band together during the crisis.
Fishtail, Montana, is home to Anne and Pitt Pollock, local royalty, high school sweethearts and owners of the successful Pollock ranch. The sprawling foothills of the Beartooth Mountains surround the town, overlooking the Pollocks’ property and the nearby ranch belonging to Bill and Pattie Brown. The two couples have known each other since childhood. Their sons Peter Pollock and Matt Brown are also the best of friends. When they and two other local kids meet Juliet Marshall, new to town after her parents’ bitter divorce, the five of them are soon inseparable, spending their summer days swimming, horseback-riding, hiking and fishing.
But one August afternoon, their latest adventure takes a dangerous turn – and quickly escalates into a battle for survival – when they find themselves trapped on Granite Peak. Fear reverberates through the town as their parents grow ever more desperate to hear word that their children have been found. They must place their own trials aside amid a massive search-and-rescue operation. As they come to lean on one another for support, a media frenzy ensues, heightening tensions and testing some already fragile relationships.
In the aftermath of this one fateful event, devastating secrets are revealed, new love appears on the horizon, and families are forced to reconsider what they once held dear.
Star Wars: Brotherhood
The Clone Wars have begun. Battle lines are being drawn throughout the galaxy. With every world that joins the Separatists, the peace guarded by the Jedi Order is slipping through their fingers.
After an explosion devastates Cato Neimoidia, the jewel of the Trade Federation, the Republic is blamed and the fragile neutrality of the planet is threatened. The Jedi dispatch Obi-Wan Kenobi, one of the Order's most gifted diplomatic minds, to investigate the crime and maintain the balance that has begun to dangerously shift. As Obi-Wan investigates with the help of a heroic Neimoidian guard, he finds himself working against the Separatists who hope to draw the planet into their conspiracy-and senses the sinister hand of Asajj Ventress in the mists that cloak the planet.
Amid the brewing chaos, Anakin Skywalker rises to the rank of Jedi Knight. Despite the mandate that Obi-Wan travel alone-and his former master's insistence that he listen this time-Anakin's headstrong determination means nothing can stop him from crashing the party, and bringing along a promising but conflicted youngling.
Once a Padawan to Obi-Wan, Anakin now finds himself on equal-but uncertain-footing with the man who raised him. The lingering friction between them increases the danger for everyone around them. The two knights must learn a new way to work together-and they must learn quickly, to save Cato Neimoidia and its people from the fires of war. To overcome the threat they face they must grow beyond master and apprentice. They must stand together as brothers.

The Exchange
Vivian, a petite translator, always managed her life with cold logic and spent her time between jobs taking care of her only living relative, her beloved Grandmother. Facing the seemingly insolvable problem of having to pay for this lovely woman’s operation in a private clinic, she reached a desperate and repugnant solution –agreeing to the offer of her current client, Matteo. Bargaining her debt, the rich and handsome Italian is willing to pay whatever she asks. The price? A single night of passion. Gripped by remorse and shame, Vivian regards her fate as the cost she must accept. With near zero experience in the arena of love and the determination to overcome any obstacle for her Grandmother’s sake, she enters the darkened hotel room and is immediately blindfolded. She has no idea how this single night will change her, her lover hidden by darkness and playing her body like a fine instrument. In the morning, she leaves the already vacated hotel room with a dreamy smile – she can now pay for her Grandmother’s treatment and, on top of that, experienced her first taste of exquisite lovemaking. Infatuated with passion, she has eyes only for Matteo, ignoring the tortured longings of his business partner, Ryan. This tall masculine Scotsman grinds his teeth, unable to explain to the fragile blond that, through intrigue and lies, he switched the liaison and deceived Matteo, taking his place and spending the entire night making passionate love to Vivian. How will he manage to bring Vivian’s seductive, shy body into his arms again?

Kizökkent idő
Volt már olyan érzésed, hogy a világon minden körülötted forog?
1959-et írunk. Ragle Gumm egy álmos, amerikai kisvárosban lakik, és abból él, hogy mindennap megfejti és beküldi kedvenc napilapja rejtvényét. Egyedülálló tehetségének köszönhetően ő az első számú versenyző a "Hol lesz legközelebb a kis zöld emberke?" című játékban.
Egy nap az a nyugtalanító érzése támad, hogy valami nagyon nincs rendben a világgal. Mintha minden körülötte forogna. Vajon kik azok, akik minden lépését figyelik? Miért olyan fontos számukra, hogy ne tudja elhagyni a várost? És mit csinál ő valójában, amikor naponta megtippeli, hogy "Hol lesz legközelebb a kis zöld emberke?" A világ lassan kezd darabokra hullani, és Ragle Gumm mindent elkövet, hogy megtalálja a valóságot. Bármi is legyen az.

To Paradise
From Hanya Yanagihara, author of the modern classic A Little Life, To Paradise is a bold, brilliant novel spanning three centuries and three different versions of the American experiment, about lovers, family, loss, and the elusive promise of utopia.
In an alternate version of 1893 America, New York is part of the Free States, where people may live and love whomever they please (or so it seems). The fragile young scion of a distinguished family resists betrothal to a worthy suitor, drawn to a charming music teacher of no means. In a 1993 Manhattan besieged by the AIDS epidemic, a young Hawaiian man lives with his much older, wealthier partner, hiding his troubled childhood and the fate of his father. And in 2093, in a world riven by plagues and governed by totalitarian rule, a powerful scientist's damaged granddaughter tries to navigate life without him - and solve the mystery of her husband's disappearances.
These three sections are joined in an enthralling and ingenious symphony, as recurring notes and themes deepen and enrich one another: A townhouse in Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village; illness, and treatments that come at a terrible cost; wealth and squalor; the weak and the strong; race; the definition of family, and of nationhood; the dangerous righteousness of the powerful, and of revolutionaries; the longing to find a place in an earthly paradise, and the gradual realization that it can't exist. What unites not just the characters, but these Americas, are their reckonings with the qualities that make us human: Fear. Love. Shame. Need. Loneliness.
To Paradise is a fin-de-siecle novel of marvellous literary effect, but above all it is a work of emotional genius. The great power of this remarkable novel is driven by Yanagihara's understanding of the aching desire to protect those we love - partners, lovers, children, friends, family, and even our fellow citizens - and the pain that ensues when we cannot.
