Wrocławské krysy. Nemocnice


Wrocław, 1963. Na psychiatrické oddělení je v pozdních odpoledních hodinách 9. srpna přivezen pacient považovaný za šílence. Tvrdí, že jeho nebožka žena vstala z mrtvých. Poté spáchá sebevraždu. Čin muže zmítaného horečnatými bludy se stane rozbuškou řetězce krvavých událostí, jimž se bude muset postavit personál nemocnice – už na první pohled příliš malý na to, aby dokázal odrazit smrtící hrozbu. Nemocnice umožňuje čtenáři nahlédnout na mrazivé události zcela z jiné perspektivy. Nemocnice je skvělým vstupem do neuvěřitelně rozmáchle vytvořeného světa, v němž se děsivá fikce prolíná s temnou realitou, a to vše v krvavých, tragických, napínavých, ale především mimořádně strhujících kulisách.

The Eights


Oxford, 1920. For the first time in its 1,000-year history, the world's most famous university has admitted female students. Giddy with dreams of equality, education and emancipation, four young women move into neighbouring rooms on Corridor Eight and find themselves thrust into an unlikely, life-affirming friendship. They have come here from all walks of life, but Dora, Beatrice, Otto and Marianne all long to move on from the Great War, whose ghosts, grief, and secrets still feel very real indeed. But Oxford is a place caught between tradition and change, where centuries of misogyny and exclusion clash with the promise of new freedoms. And as the group navigate this tumultuous moment in time under the city's dreaming spires, their friendship will become more important than ever. The Eights is a captivating debut novel about sisterhood, self-determination, courage, and what it means to come of age in a world that is forever changed.

Beowulf


The Old English epic poem Beowulf has an established reputation as a canonical text. And yet the original poem has remained inaccessible to all but experienced scholars of Old English. This book aims to present the poem to readers who want to know what makes it such a remarkable work of art, and why it is of such cultural significance. Most readers will only have encountered Beowulf through one of its many translations or adaptations; others have had to take on this unique survivor from a past era as a challenging translation exercise, part of their academic study of the poem. This book sidesteps scholarly debates about the poem’s unknowns – its date, provenance or author – and focusses instead on its poetic artistry, its interleaving of heroic pasts and Christian present, and its poet’s extraordinary breadth of reference, from biblical history to Old Norse myth. But the strange intricacies of Old English metre and poetic language are explained, and the poet’s evocation of the ethics and material world of an imagined pre-Viking Scandinavia is explored. Beowulf: Poem, Poet and Hero follows the story of the poem through its many interwoven voices from different times and places, and the poem emerges as a work of reflective beauty, its human characters full of touching pathos and wisdom, its notorious monsters still speaking to our own societies’ abiding insecurities. The final section, on post-medieval responses to Beowulf, shows how the poem has been taken up as a European cultural icon. This book restores its status as a literary masterpiece.
