Wuthering Heights
Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.
A foundling son. A forbidden love. A coveted inheritance.
Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff are wrong for each other in every way, yet inexplicably drawn together by a force stronger than themselves. Their love is passionate, dark, obsessive … and a threat to Catherine’s brother Hindley, who banishes Heathcliff, determined to make sure Wuthering Heights is his after their father’s death.
But when Heathcliff returns with money and a burning desire for both Catherine and revenge, his only goal is to take what’s his and bring retribution to all involved.
Told from the perspective of Lockwood at Thrushcross Grange on the desolate and stark Yorkshire Moors years after the events at Wuthering Heights, this English literature classic explores the relationship between love, revenge and desire, and the long-lasting effects on its residents’ heirs.

Dal jsem ti oči, a tys je upřela do temnot
Oceňovaný folk horor z katalánských kopců oslavuje ženské tělo ve všech podobách a rozbíjí stereotypy o ženské identitě. br Zatuchlý vzduch statku prostupuje vůně tymiánu a obětovaného kozla. Stařičká Bernadeta umírá a ženy rodu Clavellových chystají hostinu, aby ji na druhém břehu přivítaly jaksepatří. V bujarém podsvětí se prolínají groteskní výjevy se vzpomínkami, které odhalují rodová tajemství. Matriarcha Joana kdysi uzavřela pakt s ďáblem, aby získala dokonalého muže. Jenže po veselce zjistila, že Bernadímu Clavellovi chybí jeden prst na noze, a tak svou část dohody nedodržela. Na všechny ženy z rodu proto padla kletba: Bernadeta vidí věci, které by neměla, Margarita je vzteklá, protože má tříčtvrteční srdce, a Blančina ústa bez jazyka připomínají prázdné hnízdo.br Vypravěčský hlas bloudí statkem jako vánek a lehce stírá hranice mezi mrtvými a živými, minulostí a přítomností, skutečností a tím, čemu chceme věřit. Legendy a rčení putují napříč generacemi, aby nám připomněly, kdo jsme. Odkud vychází světlo a kde číhá temnota.

V čele trestné výpravy přijíždí do Hodonína v roce 1236 soudce Pardus Tvrdišovec, aby vyšetřil, kdo a proč zabil královnina rychtáře. Pardus se narodil v nedalekých Tvrdonicích, zná tedy povahu zdejších lidí, kteří stále věří na staré bohy a uctívají vědmy žijící v močálech kolem Hodonína. Královna Konstancie ho povolala, aby zajistil i bezpečí pro její nové úředníky, kteří mají za úkol udělat ve městě pořádek. Situace se vyhrotí, když do Hodonína přijede starý františkánský mnich a spolčí se s tamějším fanatickým knězem. Jejich cílem je potlačit přetrvávající projevy pohanství.
Román je inspirovaný listinou královny Konstancie Uherské, v níž povyšuje Hodonín na královské město a uděluje mu široká práva a současně vyzývá k potrestání vrahů jejího rychtáře Petra.

Flaxman Low
The weird and weirdly delightful adventures of fiction s first occult detective. Flaxman Low, literature s first professional, full-time 'occult detective,' i.e., an intrepid investigator who deploys the scientific method when tackling paranormal phenomena, appeared in a dozen stories first published from 1898 99. His creators, the mother-and-son team Hesketh Hesketh-Prichard and Kate O Brien Ryall Prichard (who published as 'E. and H. Heron'), endowed the Oxford-trained psychologist with the bravery and acumen to tackle every sort of adversary from ghosts, mummies, and vampires to a mushroom mannequin. Both less credulous and less cynical than earlier fictional investigators of the spirit world, Low always triumphs in the end but not before scientifically demonstrating that even the most outre incidents and situations can t hold a candle to the bizarre capacities of the human mind.

Shakespeare in South Florida
In this coming-of-age romantic comedy, a 17-year-old virgin film nerd, Joseph Caldo, who sees himself as a real-life art film, experiences first love, first sex, and first heartbreak in the surreal setting of South Florida while trying to make sense of Shakespeare’s stupid plays. Caldo has no real social life, unless arguing about film online counts. Having seen so many films while struggling romantically, he has formed a theory that women pick romantic partners the way they pick which movie to watch. He’s definitely not a blockbuster, a rom com, or even a horror film, he’s more of an indie art film that is unfortunately funny. He worries he’ll never find the person who will accept and love him, the way that he accepts and loves his favorite obscure films. That is until he meets Alexia at his grandmother's retirement home. Alexia was court-ordered to do volunteer work for her DUI but it's cool, Caldo has issues too, and it feels like they have a real connection. But there's also Valerie. The new girl at Caldo's awkwardly small school. She's a straight-A student who is attending on scholarship and is assigned the difficult task to mentor him in Shakespeare's plays. The two opposites have nothing in common except for being romantics who do nothing but fail at romance. With first jobs that go very wrong, untimely food poisoning, and fake prom dates, Caldo unintentionally reenacts Shakespearian tropes in the heart of South Florida. Humor award-winning author, Christoph Paul, and Caroline Macon Fleischer's Shakespeare in South Florida is a quirky romantic comedy about being 17 and falling in love.

Fantastic Fauna from China to Crimea
Numerous Iron-Age nomadic alliances flourished along the 5000-mile Eurasian steppe route. From Crimea to the Mongolian grassland, nomadic image-making was rooted in metonymically conveyed zoomorphic designs, creating an alternative ecological reality. The nomadic elite nucleus embraced this elaborate image system to construct collective memory in reluctant, diverse political alliances organised around shared geopolitical goals rather than ethnic ties. Largely known by the term "animal style", this zoomorphic visual rhetoric became so ubiquitous across the Eurasian steppe network that it transcended border regions and reached the heartland of sedentary empires like China and Persia. This book shows how a shared fluency in animal-style design became a status-defining symbol and a bonding agent in opportunistic nomadic alliances, and was later adopted by their sedentary neighbours to showcase worldliness and control over the "Other". In this study of enormous geographical scope, the author raises broader questions about the place of nomadic societies in the art-historical canon.
