How to Use Your Enemies
'Better mad with the crowd than sane all alone'
In these witty, Machiavellian aphorisms, unlikely Spanish priest Baltasar Gracian shows us how to exploit friends and enemies alike to thrive in a world of deception and illusion.

The Portrait
A ship’s captain. A crime. A secret. What would you do to claim the position in society that has been stolen from you?Lady Catherine, banished to the countryside as a useless girl with a lame leg, got her revenge by playing a dangerous game...and now it will ruin her. When the old earl dies, his only child feels no sorrow. The earldom will now revert to the crown and Lady Catherine will continue to live life exactly as she pleases. But when she learns that she is the heir to a secret family title, everything changes. Marriage had once seemed unnecessary and out of the question; now it is the only thing she wants. The two men in her life both need her influence and wealth. Whom shall she choose? The kind but secretive Captain Avebury? Or the notorious Sir Lyle, the handsome smuggler? Both men deal very differently with honor. And when Catherine’s secret self-destructs, which man can be trusted to save her? The Portrait is about a strong woman, foolish decisions, trust, and the definition of honor. Fans of Jane Austen’s independent women will recognize in Catherine a voice which will not be silenced.

I'm Your Man - Leonard Cohen élete
Leonard Cohen az elmúlt évszázad egyik legjelentősebb alkotója, halhatatlan dalok és irodalmi művek szerzője. Szinte látjuk magunk előtt: mindig kifogástalan öltönyben, őszes hajjal, kalappal a fején, arcán az utánozhatatlanul szexis coheni mosollyal, ami a korral sem vesztett bájából. Elképzeljük a híres amerikai lemezcégek stúdióiban, a világ legszebb koncerttermeiben és legrangosabb fesztiváljain, elegáns szállodák halljaiban.
Sylvie Simmons könyvében mindez benne van, de felvillannak új képek is. Lapozzunk bele a képzeletbeli albumba: ő az a duci kisgyerek, akit Montreal angolok lakta városrészének előkelő zsidó negyedében sofőr visz iskolába, és akinek orosz édesanyja bús szláv dalokat dúdol, rabbi nagyapja pedig a Talmudból idéz. Leonard az az esetlen kamasz is, aki papír zsebkendőt dug a cipője sarkába, hogy az iskolai ünnepélyen magasabbnak tűnjön. És ő a világfájdalmas költő, aki a leglepukkantabb kocsmákban kavargatja a kávéját.
Leonard Cohen egész életében keresett valamit, talán az Istent, talán a teljességet, de leginkább a saját belső békéjét. A neves rocktörténész, Sylvie Simmons páratlan részletességgel tárja fel egy érzékeny ember Odüsszeiáját egy érzéketlen világban és egy veszélyekkel terhes, nyomasztó kor

Gallagher Liam - Why Me? Why Not (Ed Std) & As You Were 2CD
KDO: Liam Gallagher tvořil s bráchou Noelem kostru jedné z největších kapel v britských dějinách. Oasis jsou ostrovní rockovou legendou, jejich album Be Here Now z roku 1997 bylo do listopadu 2015 s prodejem 424 tisíc kopií v týdnu po vydání nejlépe startujícím titulem v anglické historii. Média za kanálem La Manche dodnes sní o návratu Oasis, ten je však vzhledem k nevraživosti mezi oběma bratry, kteří se vzájemně nemohou vystát, velmi nepravděpodobný. Po rozpadu legendy si Liam založil vlastní kapelu, s Beady Eye ale na úspěch Oasis ani zdaleka nenavázal. Jeho kariéru restartovala až sólová tvorba, především skvělé albu As You Were z roku 2017.
CO: V rámci katalogové kampaně jsou k dispozici balíčky, v nichž zájemce najde vždy dvě alba vybraného interpreta. Součástí akce je i 2CD produkt sestavený ze sólových alb Why Me? Why Not a As You Were zpěváka Liama Gallaghera.
