Less Than Zero
In 1985, years before American Psycho, Bret Easton Ellis shocked, stunned and disturbed the world with his debut novel, Less Than Zero. This 40th anniversary edition of the cult classic novel contains an introduction by Rachel Kushner, the Booker Prize-nominated author of Creation Lake and The Mars Room.
Eighteen-year-old Clay has come home to LA for Christmas break after his first term at college. Clay is three things: rich, bored, and looking to get high. Reacquainting himself with a world of privilege and limitless indulgence, Clay steps back into the hedonism and moral depravity of his life in California. With its relentless scenes of grotesque brutality, Less Than Zero is an unflinching portrait of a lost generation in revolt.
Published when he was just twenty-one, Less Than Zero held an excoriating mirror up to the culture of excess and vapidity of 1980s Los Angeles and made Bret Easton Ellis an instant literary sensation.
Into the Storm
One night can change your life. Forever.
One night. One chance to be free.
Enya feels adrift. Trapped in a life she no longer recognises.
A loveless marriage. A distant son.
Until the night she saves a young boy's life - and upends her own.
Now to break free she must face the storm again. And this time, she's fighting for herself.
House of the Beast
Enter the House of the Beast…
'As darkly whimsical as the most beloved fairy tales and soaked in gothic atmosphere. The gorgeous and evocative illustrations bring to life an unforgettably lush and hypnotically romantic story, framed in shadows and sharp edges' Ava Reid, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Study in Drowning
Step into the House of the Beast with this dark fantasy debut from The Legend of Korra graphic novel illustrator Michelle Wong – featuring illustrations throughout by the author.
You are a very lucky young lady, to be chosen by the Dread Beast.
Alma would not have chosen the Beast. But when her mother falls ill, she is not left with the luxury of choice. After all, luxury was never something they could afford.
Forced into a desperate bargain with her estranged father and his house, one of the noble families that serve the gods and wield their powers, she irrevocably binds herself to the Dread Beast, the most fearsome of the gods. However, it is a vow made in vain when death comes for her mother anyway.
Now vengeance is Alma’s sole aim. And she has a god on her side – a beautiful, eldritch monster with starlit hair. The Beast that has chosen her.
A darkly enchanting fairy tale with blood on its teeth, House of the Beast is a story of revenge, resilience, and the power of love to see us through the darkness – beautifully illustrated throughout by the author.
Rok, který nás změnil
Každý z nás má někoho, kdo byl kdysi náš nejbližší – a koho jsme ztratili dřív, než jsme si to stihli vyříkat.
Emma a Lise bývaly nerozlučné kamarádky – dokud je život nerozdělil. Po osmnácti letech se náhle znovu potkávají. V kavárně na Honeybee Place se mezi vůní kávy a koláčů začínají znovu rozplétat nitky dávného přátelství.
Z Anglie až do Paříže a zpátky – tohle je příběh o přátelství, které přežilo roky mlčení. O návratech, které si neplánujeme. A o pravdách, které je těžké vyslovit – i po tolika letech.
So Thrilled for You
"the conversation-starting, smart, funny new book club novel from the bestselling author - this is the book for every woman you know"
Is being a mother the most defining role a woman can have?
Nicki, Lauren, Charlotte and Steffi have been friends since university. Now in their thirties, life is pulling them in different directions, and motherhood is at the forefront of their minds. But when Charlotte organises a baby shower for Nicki on a swelteringly hot summer's day, it changes their friendship group forever.
s it Steffi, happily child-free but feeling judged by her friends? Is it Charlotte, desperate to conceive and jealous of those who have? Is it Lauren, who is finding motherhood far, far harder than she imagined? Or is it Nicki herself, who never wanted a baby shower anyway?
In the aftermath, each woman has a different view on what happened that day - but the truth will shock everyone. Even you.
Slanting Towards the Sea
An evocative meditation on longing and buried resentment, set in the beautiful Croatian city of Zadar.
Ivona has returned to her childhood home to care for her father. While there, she reconnects with the man she divorced over ten years ago and finds herself welcomed into his family life by him and his wife. But when a new man enters Ivona’s life, the trio’s carefully curated dynamic is disrupted, forcing a reckoning for all involved.
Slanting Towards the Sea explores what it means to come of age in a country younger than oneself, as it sets a sensual, decades-long love story against an emerging Croatia.
A Sunny Place for Shady People
Mariana Enriquez's A Sunny Place for Shady People is her first story collection since the International Booker Prize-shortlisted The Dangers of Smoking in Bed. Featuring achingly human characters whose lives intertwine with ghosts, the occult and the macabre, the stories explore love, womanhood, LGBTQ counterculture, parenthood and Argentina's brutal past.
The West Wind
From the author of The North Wind comes a darkly reimagined tale of forbidden love, inspired by the Greek myth of Hero and Leander and the Scottish ballad Tam Lin.
Brielle of Thornbrook has dedicated her life to the abbey. She spends her days forging iron and her evenings studying the Text, all in preparation of becoming an acolyte. Twenty-one years on this earth and she has never touched a man. And she never will.
But when she finds an injured stranger in the forest, Brielle can't resist the urge to help him. The encounter leads her to the realm of Under, where the air breathes rot, and the fair folk dance and whisper. Where she discovers that the man she helped is actually a god: Zephyrus, the West Wind, Bringer of Spring.
There are few Brielle can trust in Under, least of all Zephyrus. He is charming, dangerously so, and never has a man so thoroughly ensnared her. As she embarks on a journey through the eerie banks and caves of Under, Brielle finds herself in a perilous situation. For here is where faith and heart collide - and where she risks not only her future… but her life.
Beloved by readers on TikTok, The West Wind is a standalone fantasy romance sprinkled with Greek lore, the second in the Four Winds series. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, Scarlett St. Clair and Raven Kennedy.
Stasiland
Winner of the Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-Fiction: a powerfully moving account of people who heroically resisted the communist dictatorship of East Germany, and of people who worked for its secret police, the Stasi.
Anna Funder delivers a prize-winning and powerfully rendered account of the resistance against East Germany’s communist dictatorship in these harrowing, personal tales of life behind the Iron Curtain—and, especially, of life under the iron fist of the Stasi, East Germany’s brutal state security force. In thetradition of Frederick Taylor’s The Berlin Wall and Philip Gourevitch’s We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will be Killed With Our Families, Funder’s Stasiland is a masterpiece of investigative reporting, written with novelistic vividness and the compelling intensity of a universal, real-life story.
Gold Rush
We give celebrities a power they don't deserve. Power they haven't earned. What happens when they exploit it?
Imagine you've just spent the night with the most famous man on the planet. Except you don't quite remember it. That is what happens to Rose, a twenty-something woman who seemingly has everything going for her.
Working for one of the most powerful news outlets in the country, Rose spends her days doing PR for glossy magazines. There are tedious spreadsheets, fashion divas, and many A-list parties. It's at one of those parties where she meets Milo Jax, the world-famous, globally adored, British pop sensation. An unlikely flirtation turns into an even more unlikely evening and then Rose wakes up, unable to piece it all together. What happens next changes everything.
Gold Rush is a story about consent, celebrity culture, and trying to figure out where women fit in a world that consistently devalues and disrespects their bodies.

Vražda v End House, 2. vydanie
Román Vražda v End House z roku 1932, ktorý vychádza v novom vydaní, ponúka čitateľom vynikajúci detektívny príbeh s prekvapujúcim rozuzlením. Agatha Christie ho napísala na začiatku mimoriadne plodného obdobia svojej tvorby ako siedmy román s Herculom Poirotom, slávnym detektívom, ktorý nás aj tentoraz ohúri svojimi výnimočnými dedukčnými schopnosťami.
Keď Hercule Poirot nečakane ohlási, že odchádza na odpočinok, jeho priatelia tomu nechcú uveriť. On sám je však skalopevne presvedčený, že nič na svete ho neprinúti vrátiť sa k detektívnej práci. Ibaže zakrátko vysvitne, že aj geniálny detektív sa môže mýliť...
Na dovolenke v cornwallskom letovisku sa Hercule Poirot zoznámi so šarmantnou dievčinou, ktorej nielenže jeho meno nič nehovorí, ale zároveň je taká ľahkomyseľná, že popiera očividné ohrozenie, v ktorom sa ocitla. Slečna Nick Buckleyová totiž v priebehu niekoľkých dní viackrát unikla istej smrti. Poirot by to azda aj nechal tak, no krátko nato pri stretnutí s ním preletí mladej dáme cez klobúk guľka z pištole. Je jasné, že situácia je viac než vážna a treba rýchlo konať...
Z anglického originálu Agatha Christie: Peril at End House preložila Marína Gálisová.
