Zblázněná láskou


Jediná věc, která je horší než se ocitnout na svatbě své sestry jako single žena, je zjistit, že tam bude i můj bývalý – muž, od kterého všichni očekávali, že si ho vezmu, muž, před kterým jsem utekla. Teď potřebuju doprovod, a to rychle. Přivítejte Cartera Jacksona. Sladký a sexy Carter pro mě rozhodně nepřipadá v úvahu. Závazek mezi námi je možná předstíraný, ovšem ta přitažlivost se najednou zdá až příliš skutečná. I když jsem z toho šílená, musím si ho držet od těla, abych ušetřila své srdce.

Silver in the Bone - Ezüst és csont átka (Éldekorált kiadás)


Éldekorált kiadás A mágia tehetsége nélkül született Tamsin Lark nem ér fel azokkal a varázslónőkkel és antiqua-vadászokkal, akik Boston varázslatos földalatti világát benépesítik. Ám amikor nevelőapja (az egyetlen gondoskodó felnőtt az életében), búcsú nélkül eltűnik, nincs más választása, mint csatlakozni az elvarázsolt ereklyék utáni gyilkos hajszához, hogy életben tartsa magát – és testvérét, Cabellt. Hét évvel később pletykák keringenek arról, hogy eltűnése előtt gyámja megtalálta az Arthur-legendában szereplő, nagy varázserejű gyűrűt. A riválisával, Emrysszel való összetűzés fellobbantja Tamsin reményét, hogy a gyűrű megszabadíthatja Cabellt a mindkettőjüket fenyegető átoktól. Ám nem csak ők vágynak erre a gyűrűre. Ahogy terjed a híre, a kapzsi antiqua-vadászok rögtön felbukkannak a gyűrű keresői között, és sokan ölni tudnának, hogy megszerezzék maguknak. Bár Emrys az utolsó ember, akivel Tamsin partnerként társulna, minden segítségre szüksége van, hogy megelőzze versenytársait a gyűrűért folytatott versenyben. Együtt ugranak fejest a sötét mágia viperafészkébe, és felfednek egy halálos titkot, amelynek ereje képes felébreszteni a múlt szellemeit, és összetörni Tamsin utolsó reményét, hogy testvérét megmentheti.

Greyhound


In 2006, in the wake of several miscarriages, Joanna Pocock travelled by Greyhound bus across the US from Detroit to Los Angeles. Seventeen years later, now in her 50s, she undertakes the same journey, revisiting the same cities, edgelands, highways and motels in the footsteps of the few women writers – Simone de Beauvoir, Ethel Mannin and Irma Kurtz – who chronicled their own road trips across the US. In Greyhound, Pocock explores the overlap of place and memory, the individual with the communal, and the privatization of public space as she navigates two very different landscapes – an earlier, less atomized America, and a current one mired in inequality, as it teeters on the brink of environmental catastrophe. Her focus is on the built-upon environment: the rivers of tarmac, the illuminated gas stations, the sprawling suburbs and the sites of extraction created specifically to fuel contemporary life. Combining memoir, reportage, environmental writing and literary criticism, Greyhound is a moving and immersive book that captures an America in the throes of late capitalism with all its beauty, horror and complexity.

An Academy for Liars


Lennon Carter's life is falling apart. Until she gets a mysterious phone call inviting her to sit the entrance exam for somewhere few have heard of - Drayton College, a school of magic hidden in a secret pocket of Savannah. Lennon doesn't know it yet, but she is special. She possesses the innate gift of persuasion: the ability to wield her will like a weapon, controlling others, and even matter itself. But this is a devastating power than Lennon must learn how to master. While persuasion takes a heavy toll on her body and her mind, she is captivated by all that surrounds her - her studies, Drayton's lush campus and, most of all, Dante - the charismatic adviser who both intimidates and enamours her. But the longer that Lennon spends at Drayton, learning to wield her uncanny abilities, the more she uncovers about Drayton's unsettling history, and Dante's tragic and violent past. For it seems that the ultimate test is to embrace absolute power without succumbing to corruption and darkness . . . and it's a test she's terrified she is going to fail.

Po zaviatych stopách


Nebývalo samozrejmosťou, že písanie žien bolo akceptované verejnosťou. Žena mala napĺňať trojicu hodnôt: Küche, Kinder, Kirche (kuchyňa, deti, kostol) a literatúra bola prevažne doménou mužov. K priekopníčkam slovenskej ženskej spisby patrili, po prvej slovenskej poetke Ľudmile Podjavorinskej, aj Helena Riasnická, Maruša Jusková a Mária Jančová. Dlhoročný výskum Andrey Bokníkovej priniesol svoje ovocie v podobe tejto monografie, založenej na pôvodnom pramennom výskume, uvedenej štúdiou a doplnenej komentármi. Vydala sa po stopách lyrických zážitkov a básnických tvarov poetiek. Obohacuje tak znalosti o ženských vnútorných svetoch, ktorých jednotiacim prvkom bola konfesia. Počiatočným miestom stretnutia bol zborník Z mladej ženskej poézie (1941). To, čo poetky spájalo, bol pohyb slobodnej myšlienky. Každá prinášala vlastné špecifikum, od dedikačných básní po rituálne procesy tkania, materstva či vzťahu k chorému dieťaťu. Pohnuté životy poetiek mali aj svoje edičné osudy (Helena Riasnická bola autorkou bez samostatnej zbierky, jej básne v takmer súhrnnej zostave vychádzajú až v tejto knihe). Bokníková nás zasvätene a s pozoruhodnou znalosťou doby vovádza do literárneho priestoru, kde sa poetky stretávali s poprednými osobnosťami svojej doby: Rudolfom Dilongom, Tidom Jozefom Gašparom, Zorou Jesenskou, Leou Mrázovou, Jankom Silanom, Margitou Valehrachovou-Matulayovou a ďalšími. Kniha odkrýva menej známe alebo zabudnuté aspekty a línie v tvorbe slovenských poetiek a má ambíciu vrátiť niekdajšiu lyrickú samotu či družnosť do kultúrnej pamäti. Dana Podracká

The Bitter Water of the Lake


In the 1990s, Gaia’s family moves from the neglected peripheries of Rome to an idyllic lakeside town in search of a new life that will lift them out of poverty. Each of them bears their own scars: Gaia’s mother is fiercely determined to secure a better future for her children at any cost; her father, a once proud man, now suffers in bitter silence after a devastating accident; her anarchist older brother rebels against the political apathy he sees at home; and her young twin brothers wordlessly bear witness to a family in decay. When Gaia meets two local girls, Agata and Carlotta, the trio builds a fragile friendship. Gaia’s encounters with callous boys and contemptuous teachers convince her that she might always be an outsider—excluded from a privileged life and beyond the possibility of happiness. Winner of the Campiello Prize, The Bitter Water of the Lake is an unflinching portrait of a generation striving to make a place for themselves in a world markedly different from the one their parents promised them.

Generation GDR


A gripping account of East Germany in the late '70s and early '80s, and of one man's fated struggle for freedom. Friday, April 10th, 1981: 23-year-old Mathias Domaschk boards the fast train from Jena to Berlin, on his way to a birthday party. But he never arrives . . . The packed train is held up en route, and Mathias and three of his friends are apprehended, suspected of being part of a cell intent on disrupting the socialist party congress. Forty-eight hours later he is dead, following interrogation in the Stasi detention centre in Gera. What happened over those two days? Peter Wensierski's captivating book draws on multiple witness statements and extensive Stasi documentation to build a riveting and dramatic account, switching between Mathias's journey and the Stasi activities up to and through his arrest. He also places this tragedy against its broader political and social context to reveal the lives of a whole generation of young East Germans who just wanted live freely - and the contempt that the GDR authorities displayed for their humanity. Part reportage, part true crime, Generation GDR offers unique insights into the secret corridors of an authoritarian regime and delivers a powerful warning from history. Translated from the German by Jamie Bulloch
