My
Antiutopický román inšpirovaný hrôzami sovietskeho Ruska.
Vydanie je doplnené o doslov známeho rusistu Valerija Kupku.
Román My - pochmúrna vízia totalitného systému založeného na obludnom etatizme, krajnom racionalizme a mechanizovanom, totálnom kolektivizme - je doslova epochálnym literárnym dielom. Ovplyvnené fantastikou H. G. Wellsa, neorealistickým videním skutočnosti a intuitívne pochmúrnou predtuchou negatívneho vývoja civilizácie vyústilo do varovnej satiry, ktorá aj po rozpade Sovietskeho zväzu a odhalení zverstiev totalitných režimov, ktoré Európu ovládali v 20. storočí, nestráca svoju aktuálnosť.
Dielo varuje pred odľudštením, mravným vákuom, umŕtvením myslenia a spoločenským úpadkom, ktorý musí zákonite viesť ku koncu modernej civilizácie. Zamiatin svojím románom výrazne ovplyvnil evolúciu žánru science-fiction a inšpiroval preslávené antiutópie Aldousa Huxleyho a Georga Orwella.

My Slovakia - Exclusive Limited Edition
Traveler and photographer Filip Kulisev, Master QEP, FBIPP, has over the past decade become one of the world’s foremost photographers of natural scenery. In his twelfth book, My Slovakia, he returns to his native country and showcases its many places of remarkable natural beauty.
Slovakia highlights its beauty and natural, cultural and historical treasures in many ways. The country benefits from its advantageous location in the heart of the Old Continent, which over the centuries has been a crossroads for many nationalities. Perhaps that is the reason I find its more out-of-the-way places as impressive as better-known attractions elsewhere in the world.
The colorful sea of purple clover near Lipová hardly looks less beautiful than the lavender fields of Provence. Roháče and Kriváň are as uniquely reflected on the surface of calm Liptovská Mara as Denali appears on the waters of an Alaskan lake. Likewise, this land surprises me with its many castles and palatial manors blending in with the surrounding landscape, like Spiš Castle, the largest medieval castle complex in Central Europe. As I wander across the country with growing frequency, I have also discovered its beauty from above. My drone has given me views and angles I could never achieve while standing on solid ground. I am pleased to have the opportunity to share Slovakia with you. It’s well worth it!
Az egyszerű vadon 2: Wild at Heart - Vad szívvel
Út Alaszkába, és az élet soha nem várt fordulatai.
Calla Fletcher új emberként tér vissza Torontóba, nehezen találja a helyét, és még mindig borzasztóan szerelmes a goromba bozótpilótába, akit maga mögött hagyott. Amikor Jonah felbukkan az ajtajában egy visszautasíthatatlan ajánlattal, rászánja magát, hogy sietve visszatérjen Alaszkába, és együtt belevágjanak izgalmas jövőjükbe.
De Calla hamarosan megtanulja, hogy a legjobb szándék is vezethet be nem tartott ígéretekhez, és kemény ára van a kompromisszumnak - egy belső-alaszkai rönkház éppolyan elszigetelt tud lenni, mint a nyugati tundra világa.
Mialatt Jonah többet tartózkodik távol, mint otthon, Calla egyik
szomszédja elhatározza, hogy igazi alaszkaivá neveli őt, a másik szomszédja viszont nagyobb eséllyel fog rá puskát, mint hogy a segítségére siessen. Calla mindeközben keresi a saját útját. A bóklászó vadak világában folyamatosan résen kell lennie, és nem csupán a hideg, sötét, téli hónapokat jellemzik
zord körülmények; időnként még a saját ajtaján kilépni is rémisztő.
Vajon milyen sorsra jut végül?
Az egyszerű Vadon nemzetközi bestseller magával ragadó folytatása.

Honeybee Heart Has Five Openings
This book has found a special place in my heart. It's as strange, beautiful and unexpected, as precise and exquisite in its movings, as bees in a hive. I loved it' HELEN MACDONALD, author of H IS FOR HAWK
`Everyone should own A Honeybee Heart Has Five Openings, which moved and delighted me more than a book about insects had any right to ... Jukes is a gloriously gifted writer and her book ought to become a key text of this bright moment in our history of nature writing' Observer
`Written finely and insightful' Guardian
A fascinating, insightful and inspiring account of a novice beekeeper's year of keeping honeybees, which will appeal to readers of H is For Hawk and The Outrun
Entering her thirties, Helen Jukes feels trapped in an urban grind of office politics and temporary addresses - disconnected, stressed. Struggling to settle into her latest job and home in Oxford, she realises she needs to effect a change if she's to create a meaningful life for herself, one that can accommodate comfort and labour and love. Then friends give her the gift of a colony of honeybees - according to folklore, bees freely given bring luck - and Helen embarks on her first full year of beekeeping. But what does it mean to `keep' wild creatures? In learning about the bees, what can she learn of herself? And can travelling inside the hive free her outside it?
As Helen grapples with her role in the delicate, awe-inspiring ecosystem of the hive, the very act of keeping seems to open up new perspectives, deepen friendships old and new, and make her world come alive. A Honeybee Heart Has Five Openings is at once a fascinating exploration of the honeybee and the hive, the practices of honey-gathering and the history of our observation of bees; and a beautifully wrought meditation on responsibility and care, on vulnerability and trust, on forging bonds and breaking new ground.
'This is classic modern nature-writing; a synthesis of scientific learning, observation and the author's response. If you care for the wellbeing of bees and the planet and for the state of the human heart, then this book, with its deft and beautiful prose, is for you... And like all good nature writing, it also - quietly, clearly and insistently - requires us, too, to respond' Countryfile Magazine
`An intimate exploration of the heart and home, and a tantalising glimpse into an alien culture. A brave and delicate book, rich and fascinating' Nick Hunt, author of Where the Wild Winds Are
`Subtly wrought personal journey into the art and science of beekeeping. Helen Jukes evokes both the practical minutiae of the work, and the findings of researchers who have illuminated bee ethology over the centuries' nature
'A mesmeric, lovely, quietly powerful book. A gentle but compelling account of the redemption that comes from relationship and attention' Charles Foster, author of Being a Beast
'A profound, funny and sometimes deeply moving book that describes a year of inner city bee keeping, while dancing between the history of bees and us and what it means to be human in our modern world' Julia Blackburn, author of Threads: The Delicate Life of John Craske
'A very human story about the aliens gathering in her back garden - bees, fascinating but almost unknowable. Their wildness and her duty to them help open up a desk rat's uninspiring life to all the possibilities of love, care, connection and sheer wonder. It is a lovely, entirely personal journey into the very heart of the hive' Michael Pye
`I raced through this really terrific, down-to-earth read. The existential threat to our entire ecosystem posed by the problems facing bees can be hard to grasp, but Helen manages to make this a very personal, human story that, hopefully, might inspire others to action' Luke Turner, The Quietus

Anjelská škola
"Pred ôsmimi rokmi som založila meditačnú, anjelskú školu a zdieľala s ďalšími ich vnútorné svety a zážitky. Veľa študentov sa doma radšej nepochválilo, kam každú sobotu chodia, aby zbytočne neboli terčom posmechu alebo kritiky. Nie všetci rodinní príslušníci mali pochopenie pre naše pravidelné sobotné úlety. Pre nás, účastníkov Anjelskej školy, to však boli nezabudnuteľné stretnutia, po ktorých sme sa nikdy nevedeli rozlúčiť. Po celom dni meditovania sme ešte do neskorého večera diskutovali pri voňavom pohári čaju. Objatia striedali silné emocionálne zážitky a tie zase objatia. Čas utekal ako voda a žiaci prichádzali a odchádzali, zostávali iba tí najvytrvalejší. Na našich stretnutiach som zistila, že veľa ľudí anjelov naciťuje, rozpráva sa s nimi a ani si to neuvedomuje. Bolo ale veľa takých , ktorí prišli iba s veľkou túžbou ich raz uvidieť či započuť, zažiť senzáciu, proste niečo výnimočné. Ešte stále je medzi nami veľa takých, ktorí v anjelov neveria a tým, ktorí ich vnímajú, sa posmievajú, alebo ich berú ako nereálnych, pravdaže iba dovtedy, kým oni sami duchovne nedospejú a nestretnú anjela alebo nejakú inú svetelnú bytosť. To kompletne zmení ich pohľad a prístup ľuďom a svetu. Dovtedy nemá zmysel ich o čomkoľvek presviedčať."
Ľudský svetelný systém je posvätný ako energia tej sily, ktorá ho stvorila.
"Verím, že táto knižka vám pripomenie cestu vašej duše a fakt, že my ľudia sme nádherné svetelné bytosti. S láskou vás povedie späť do svetla, odkiaľ sme všetci prišli..." s úctou a láskou Avenalis

Finding my virginity - Môj druhý životopis
Svoj druhý životopis začína Richard Branson tam, kde skončil svoj prvý, na počiatku nového milénia, v roku 1999. V knihe Finding My Virginity sprevádza čitateľa expanziou leteckých spoločností skupiny Virgin na všetky kontinenty, ich bojmi o možnosti lietať na významné medzinárodné letiská, opisom nezlomného odhodlania udržať si licenciu na prevádzku hlavných britských železničných tratí či spomienkami na vstup skupiny Virgin do nových podnikateľských sfér - bankovníctva, mobilného telefonovania a súkromných letov do vesmíru.
Pyšne opisuje svoje podnikateľské, dobročinné aj rodičovské úspechy, nevyhýba sa však ani nepríjemným témam, ktoré sa dostali do centra záujmu médií aj verejnosti. Vracia sa k havárii prvého raketoplánu spoločnosti Virgin Galactic, k nehode vlakovej súpravy Virgin Trains aj k ničivému požiaru na Neckerovom ostrove v čase, keď tam bola celá jeho rodina. Vyjadruje sa k svojim vzťahom s politikmi, či už ide o Nelsona Mandelu, Davida Camerona, Baracka Obamu, alebo Donalda Trumpa.
Vysvetľuje dôvody svojej angažovanosti v bojoch proti drogám, klimatickým zmenám a vojnovým konfliktom, vracia sa aj k niektorým dôležitým súdnym sporom či nevydareným podnikateľským pokusom. Autor dopĺňa knihu o množstvo fotografií a nevšedný zoznam 76 situácií, pri ktorých mohol prísť o život.

Love And Other Human Errors
An unforgettable story about love in all its chaotic glory from the author of Last One At The Party
A book synopsis is fundamentally ridiculous. How can I possibly convey, in only 100 words, the events of the past year and their impact on my perfectly ordered existence?
It is insufficient space to accurately detail how I was blackmailed into demonstrating my flawless algorithm to find a soulmate, despite having no desire for one.
In my former life I avoided trivial human connections. I was alone, accomplished and brilliant.
Unfortunately, that solitary and driven woman no longer exists.
My name is Indiana Dylan and this is the extraordinary account of how I fell in love.
There: 100 words exactly.
