Eating People is Wrong
Stuart Treece, a forty-year-old professor and head of English, now rather set in his ways (Hannibal Lecter is not on his syllabus), is made to feel somewhat alien by his encounters with a younger generation whose values are decidedly at odds with his own. In this witty tragi-comedy, the hero's attempts to come to terms with his new situation are hilariously undermined when he finds himself instead falling in love with one of his graduate students, and busily fending off a student rival. Eating People is Wrong established Bradbury's ability to satirize the academic world and to create the campus novel, as with Stepping Westward and the prize-winning The History Man. Like its title, the book is funny, true and memorable. Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature. 'The funniest book I have read this year' The Daily Telegraph'It is both tough and sensitive, a brilliantly funny book and a really important first novel' The Sunday Times'A sobering, satirical brilliance' The Times Literary Supplement
Lamento
Lamento is a love story that questions the possibility of reconciling the magic of infatuation with everyday life. The story begins with a fire – an image which permeates the novel. The narrator, a writer, meets a theatre artist; their love feels ecstatic and utopian, completely untouched by the outside world.But with the birth of a child, the weight of the everyday turns their passion destructive. The woman fights for every minute she can to write, while the man abandons family life to focus on his art. Their private drama is further confronted by the jagged realities of colonialism and injustice, forcing them to see themselves as part of a violent history they cannot escape. As love turns to hate, we follow their restless search to understand the enigma of love.In a startling act of reverse auto-fiction, Madame Nielsen – a legendary figure of the Danish avant-garde – inhabits the voice of the woman she once loved to interrogate the man she once was. The result is an unsparing reconciliation of gender and memory, a lament that strips away self-pity to expose the narcissistic cost of creative obsession, and a meditation on how gender alters our experience of the world.
Moje Antonie
Moje Antonie patří k nejvýznamnějším dílům americké literatury a představuje vrchol autorčiny tvorby. Vypráví hluboký příběh o dětství, kořenech a hledání vlastního místa ve světě.
Příběh je zasazen do období osidlování amerického středozápadu na sklonku 19. století, kdy za lepší budoucností mířily na americké prérie tisíce přistěhovalců z Evropy. Na pozadí tohoto velkého stěhování sledujeme osud české dívky Antonie Šimerdové, od chvíle, kdy s celou rodinou přichází do Ameriky. Přijíždějí plni naděje, na drsný život na prérii však nejsou připraveni a tvrdá realita jim brzy přinese tragédii. Antonie musí pracovat na farmě i ve městě, naráží na nevyzpytatelnost přírody i lidí, na chudobu i nenaplněnou lásku. Přesto si uchovává vášeň pro život, houževnatost i citlivé srdce. Její příběh vidíme obdivnýma očima oddaného přítele, Američana Jima.
Moje Antonie je významná nejen svou literární kvalitou, ale i českým rozměrem příběhu. Willa Cather s nezaměnitelným rukopisem a hlubokým porozuměním pro lidskou povahu vykresluje krajinu, postavy i pozoruhodné osudy a román tak právem patří mezi literární klasiku 20. století.
„Cather líčí české vystěhovalce při vší lásce realisticky správně.”
T. G. Masaryk

Beyond the Edge of Light
An unforgettable wartime novel about loyalty, honour and the unbearable cost of choosing a side, perfect for readers of The Rose Code, All the Light We Cannot See, and The Nightingale
Munich, 1938. Europe is on the brink of war when Julia 'Missie' Ormesby, a young Englishwoman, meets Conrad von Echlau, a German aristocrat whose conscience is increasingly at odds with the country he serves.
Their connection is instant, consuming - and impossible.
As Germany darkens under Nazi rule, Missie and Conrad are pulled apart by history. He remains bound to the Luftwaffe, while she returns to England, where her fluency in German leads her to Bletchley Park and the hidden world of enemy intelligence.
But when Conrad is chosen for a secret German mission, the war brings them back into each other's orbit in the most devastating way.
Now Missie must confront the truth: the man she once loved is no longer just a memory. He is part of the enemy war machine. And as Britain's intelligence chiefs close in, love, duty and country collide.
Ourika, Édouard, and Olivier
''I have no secrets; my unhappiness is the story of my entire life.''A key figure in the literary world of post-Revolutionary Paris, Claire de Duras was a writer of exceptional talent, admired by Sainte-Beuve and Goethe, imitated by Stendhal, and influencing later writers such as Fromentin, Ourika describes the discrimination suffered by a young Black woman brought up in an aristocratic French family, her unconscious adoption of this racial disdain, and her redemption by faith. Édouard charts the impossibility of the bourgeois hero''s love for the daughter of the aristocratic family into which he has been adopted on his parents'' death. In the epistolary Olivier, the two central protagonists, clearly in love, are nevertheless prevented from marriage by Olivier''s secret. Now accepted as integral to French Romanticism and the history of women''s writing, the narratives showcase Duras''s empathy with the exceptional, the outcast, and the victims of social injustice, providing pioneering studies in race, class, and sexuality. Chris Miller''s new translations into English are accompanied by an introduction and notes by Pratima Prasad, highlighting major themes in the texts. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius
A finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction
A number one New York Times Bestseller
A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius is the moving memoir of a college student who, in the space of five weeks, loses both of his parents to cancer and inherits his eight-year-old brother.

Amíg a nyár véget ér
A találkozásuk nem véletlen volt, ám egyikük sem volt rá felkészülve. Léna már akkor a nyár végét várta, amikor az még el sem kezdődött.
A forró és fojtogató budapesti hétköznapok már májusban a padlóra küldték, így megváltásként érkezett számára a lehetőség, hogy a nyári időszakban külföldön taníthat angolt. Nem volt más dolga, mint megkeresni a nyelviskola kínálatából azt az európai várost, ahol a leghidegebb van. Matti viszont élete legboldogabb nyarára készült Helsinkiben. Frissen elvált férfiként megérintette a szabadság szele, élvezte, hogy a sötét fellegek tovaszálltak, és végre megérkezett a napsütés a hosszú tél után. Ám minden számítását keresztülhúzta az új tanárnő érkezése, aki nemcsak elhappolta előle a haladó kurzust, de koordinátorként még támogatni is kénytelen az óráin. Léna kitörő lelkesedéssel, Matti hűvös ellenszenvvel vág bele a közös munkába. A két angoltanár között igen hamar feszültté válik a légkör, ám a szikrázó hangulat és a heves viták egy idő után egészen másfajta szenvedéllyé alakulnak át.
Péntek Tünde romantikus regényével egy különleges finn kalandra csábítja az olvasókat. Szórakoztató köntösbe bújtatott történet újrakezdésről, kimondatlan vágyakról és arról, mit is lehet kezdeni azzal, ha a szív valami teljesen mást szeretne, mint amit az ész diktál.

It rings with truth' ELIZABETH LAIRD'Piercing, personal, necessary' COLUM MCCANNIt is the year 2000 when Dinah, a Jewish teenager from London, arrives in Israel with her family. Still reeling from the death of her beloved dad, the idea of having to start all over again daunts her. Dinah isn’t quite sure what to make of this seemingly pristine place: her new life seems soulless and suffocating.Another teenager, Safa, watches Dinah settle in. A fourteen-year-old Palestinian who was shot and killed decades ago in the Six Day War, Safa is caught in a limbo which she calls the ‘In-Between’. She is unable to fully pass on without knowing what happened to her younger sister, Nur, who is still alive somewhere. After thirty-three years, the possibility of finding her sister is suddenly within reach – but Safa needs Dinah's help.Alternating between past and present, and between Safa and Dinah, Ever Land is a gripping and powerful story that sheds light on the ongoing occupation of Palestine. It is a tale of belonging and identity, of devastation and displacement and – ultimately – of the enduring universality of humanity and love.
