Out of a normal family of seven, he might get lost in the shuffle. But being the black sheep of the Cobalt Empire comes with its own intense spotlight. After he hits a major low at college in Philly, his four older brothers convince him to move in with them in New York City. Transferring to Manhattan Valley University-piece of cake. Living in an apartment with all of his brothers while harboring a giant secret among a family who's more tight-knit than a secret society-total effing chaos.

A grumpy, punk-rock girl with a troubled past who's already pissed off one Cobalt brother. So when an undeniable attraction ignites, Harriet Fisher is expecting the flames to die out.

But there are rules: they must be returned after three days, and they must always sleep in their own familiar blankets. In The Blanket Cats, we meet seven such customers, including a couple struggling with infertility, a middle-aged woman on the run from the police, and two families in very different circumstances simply seeking joy. But like all their kind, the blanket cats are mysterious creatures with their own unknowable agendas, who delight in confounding expectations. And perhaps what their hosts are looking for isn't what they really need. Three days may not be enough to change your life. But it might be enough to change how you see it.

Manžel aneb Jak se také dá využít váš partner

Manžel aneb Jak se také dá využít váš partner

Nová a zcela nekorektní dvojkniha karikaturisty Lubomíra Lichého je na světě. Můžete ji začít číst z kterékoli strany. Jenom si vybrat, zda dáte napřed přednost dámě nebo pánovi. Manželce či manželovi. Lichý nešetří ani jednoho. Knihou se tak prosmějete, podle toho, který začátek zvolíte. Výhodou je, že když ji otočíte, můžete pokračovat… Trocha nekorektního humoru z časů, kdy podržet ženě dveře neznamenalo jí sdělit, že si je není schopná otevřít sama, a drobné rýpnutí do opačného pohlaví se dalo přejít s humorem, a dokonce bez trestních oznámení. Zkrátka stará doba… Žijeme ve zvláštní době. Prakticky denně nám politici ve sdělovacích prostředcích předvádějí performance, o jejichž vhodnosti vysílání před desátou večerní by zcela jistě mohla být vedena odborná diskuse. Přesto jsou naladitelné v kteroukoli hodinu. Zato při slušné rozpravě je třeba našlapovat zlehýnka. Například genderová vyváženost je novodobým požadavkem, a není zcela korektní, je-li například na práci v kamenolomu požadován výhradně muž. Můžeme se setkat s bytostmi, které se identifikují třeba jako kočky, a jsou nesmírně rozladěné, když jim na veřejné toaletě chybí vanička se stelivem. Jakoby se nám starý a srozumitelný svět stavěl trochu na hlavu, na kteroužto polohu se nám nepřivyká lehce. Pokud se Vám tedy v této nezvyklé pozici nestojí pohodlně, klidně svůj trénink na chvíli přerušte, zaujměte polohu tělu příjemnou a zalistujte si v dílku, jež třímáte v prstech. Lubomír Lichý zde shromáždil řadu aforismů na téma žena a muž, pocházejících od klasiků, přátel i lidu. Vše je doplněno a podpořeno autorovým milým kresleným humorem. Manžel: definice pojmu O původu slova manžel nepanuje mezi vědci shoda. Část jich zastává názor, že pochází z francouzského manger „jíst“, zbytek je přesvědčen, že je třeba hledat pramen v německém der Mangel „nedostatek“. Ať už je tedy původní význam manžela „pojídač“ nebo „člověk, kterému něco chybí“, je zřejmé, že jde o součást domácího vybavení značně problematickou, poruchovou a z větší části postradatelnou. Dostaly-li jste se již do té ošemetné situace, že se jeden či více exemplářů ocitlo ve vašem vlastnictví, snad vám pomůže náš upřímně míněný manuál k tomu, že pro něj naleznete alespoň nějaké neškodné využití… Manželka jako zdroj všehomíra Manželka je úžasný vynález matky přírody. Pokud žena jako taková je všeobecně (a právem) považována za subjekt všeho schopný, pak s manželkou zašla příroda ještě dál, až za hranice možného a nemožného. Uzavřením sňatku se z už tak podivuhodného, ale stále přirozeného stvoření, stává stvoření naprosto nadpřirozené…
