Catch Her If You Can UK


#1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey is back with an all-new marriage of convenience, friends-to-lovers sports romance about a baseball catcher and the burlesque club owner he can’t get out of his head. Madden Donahue, the newest catcher for the Yankees, has been in love with Eve Mitchell since high school, but for some mysterious reason, the burlesque club owner always turns him down. That never stopped him from being her self-appointed protector. Case in point, now that Eve’s sister has left Eve with her two children indefinitely, Madden steps in with a proposition—marry him for the much needed health benefits. Eve has secretly harbored feelings for Madden all along, but there’s one problem—her best friend Skylar called dibs on him when they were fourteen. Eve has always put their friendship above all else, and she’s not willing to risk losing Skylar over a man. Raised by the local strip club owner, Eve is woefully short on friends and treasures the ones she has. But with Skylar happily paired off, Eve finds herself accepting Madden’s proposal—on the condition that their marriage remains strictly private. She’s not about to let her unique profession and maligned reputation destroy Madden’s shiny new career. Madden won’t let Eve get away that easily, though. What starts as a marriage of convenience soon ignites into something much hotter, and now it’s up to Madden to convince Eve that their connection is far more than a business arrangement. As the passion builds, can their fake marriage become the real deal?

Ráadás


Régen rossz, ha egy könyvcím magyarázatra szorul. Ennél csak az rosszabb, ha nincs, aki megmagyarázza. Mivel a címet én találtam ki, ez a feladat kétségkívül rám vár. Nos, kedves olvasó, a cím úgy született, hogy néhány felnőtteknek szóló könyvem elnyerte az Önök tetszését. Tapsot ugyan nem hallottam, de leveleik, telefonhívásaik és a könyvek fogyása alapján mégis hallani véltem. Remélem, nem tévedtem. Így aztán az Önök biztatására kerekedett ki rövid írásaimból ez az új kötet. Ráadást, ugye, a koncerteken az előadóművészek szoktak adni, ha elég kitartóan tapsol a közönség. Én nem állok pódiumon, csak itthon kopogok öreg írógépemen, és nagyon örülök, ha tetszik, amit írok. Ha valakinek megy a késői busza, indul a vonata, vagy egyébként is elege volt, hát nyugodtan kászálódjék. A ráadás azé, aki kérte, aki várja. Fogadja szeretettel.

Ájlávjú


Kötelességem figyelmeztetni a kedves olvasót, a cím félrevezető. Nem szerelmes történeteket tartalmaz a kötet. Hanem? Az úgy van, hogy az ember időskorban már kevesebbet ügyintéz, szaladgál, nyüzsög. Inkább elgondolkozik ezen-azon, ír, írogat, így a századvégen, ezredelőn. Különösen, ha írónak hiszi magát. Aztán összegyűlik egy kötetre való. De miért jut eszébe éppen ez a cím? Mert a tévésorozatok, az angolszász nyelvterületen készült filmek jóvoltából angolul gyakran hallja. Magyarul csak szeretné hallani. De valahogy hiánycikk. Még a falfirkákon is többnyire angolul olvasható, hogy ,,I love Brigi - Karesz". Azonkívül az angol nyelvű vallomás nemcsak egyes számban szeret, hanem többes számban is. Akár a kedves olvasó is magára veheti. Ha akarja. Rosszkedvet oszlató humort, szeretetből fakadó türelmet, megértést kínálok annak, aki vevő rá.

Psychiatři nemusí být blázni


Ze života britského psychiatra Proč by se někdo z vlastní vůle rozhodl, že se stane psychiatrem? Opravdu se dají v učebnicích medicíny najít řešení na zpackané lidské životy? Mohou citliví pacienti dostat potřebnou péči, když na psychiatrii chybí personál, nemocniční lůžka a někdy i vhodná léčba?

Benji Waterhouse odemyká dveře britského psychiatrického oddělení a přináší zasvěcený pohled na nejtajemnější a zároveň nejkontroverznější obor medicíny, okořeněný zdravou dávkou černého humoru a špetkou optimismu. Žena s bipolární poruchou letící ve svatebních šatech z Ameriky, aby se provdala za Harryho Stylese. Schizofrenický řidič náklaďáku přesvědčený, že objevil lék na koronavirus. Psychiatr v depresích tající svou profesi před obvodním lékařem, neboť se obává stigmatizace. Většina postav v této knize jsou Waterhouseovi pacienti. Někteří jsou členové jeho rodiny. Jednou z postav je on sám. Kniha je dokonalou volbou pro čtenáře, které svými knihami oslovil Adam Kay.

Půjčovna loutek


Jednoho dne dostane XY, vypravěčka příběhů, spisovatelka, která žije v Indii, balíček z Prahy. Je v něm rukopis románu Půjčovna loutek, ve kterém vystupují dva hrdinové podivného jména: Pepe a Puppi. Kdo jsou a jaké jsou jejich osudy? Už jako dítě Pepe pochopil, že hmotná realita světa je jiná, než jak se nám jeví: každý atom je hlavně prázdný prostor. Tento objev ho stále pronásleduje. Co když jsou „prázdná místa“ možné styčné body s jinou, příští existencí? Dvě osoby ho ovlivnily – stárnoucí redaktor Ben a legendární geograf z Kroměříže Ferdinand Stoliczka. Při cestě za poznáním – od moravského blázince přes Prahu, Argentinu nebo Indii – má Pepe průvodkyni, kterou je půvabná Puppi, stejně jako on od dětství trochu šílená: má strach z hadrových panenek, z nichž se sypou piliny. Není přece rozdíl mezi hračkami a lidmi, kteří jsou ve skutečnosti jen loutkami pro různé životní role! Tragikomické příhody lemují fantastickou trasu, po níž jde Pepe z rodné Moravy až ke hrobu slavného krajana v Himálaji. Tam teprve zjistí, že celý život je vyrovnávání a smíření s koncem pozemské pouti a příprava na změnu. Román ještě nekončí, přestože jeho autor opustil tento svět. Spisovatelka XY se totiž rozhodne příběh dopsat. Jeho závěrečná část je pro čtenáře vzrušujícím a překvapujícím vyústěním dramatu.

Nostalgie si bere vás


Dneska se lidi sypou v podstatě na každém rohu nebo v tramvaji. Když už se ale sesypete, záleží hlavně na tom, jak vás znovu uplácají. Jestli vás teda pískaři vůbec seberou. S hlavním hrdinou beze jména – komu tady záleží na jméně? – procházíme městem, kde si domy mezi sebou vyřizují účty jadrnou wasserněmčinou, dělníci v ranních tramvajích zvrací písek, zatímco se trmácí za dřinou do továren, a v noci se k vám v posteli přivine cizí bytost. Z tohohle vyšinutého místa se dá utéct jen pomocí alkoholu nebo něčeho silnějšího a nebezpečnějšího jako láska.

Rachel


This remarkable book is the story of the author''s mother, Rachel, a girl born in the Jewish Quarter of Damascus, who in 1927 wins a scholarship to study in Versailles to become a teacher with the Alliance Israelite Universelle. Posted to Baghdad, she meets Victor, a young man from a wealthy Iraqi Jewish family, fresh from study in Germany.The book follows their relationship, through the enormous and appalling upheavals of the twentieth century. The Holocaust is at first only a terrifying rumour to Syrian and Iraqi Jews, whose immediate problems result from the rise, following the collapse of the Ottoman rule, of a predominantly Muslim Arab nationalism whose sources in European fascism and Nazism make it a threat not only to Jews but to all the religious and ethnic minorities of the region, including the ancient Christian sects. The book covers the entire sequence of events, including the rise of Israel and the defeat of the Arab armies sent to suppress it, which led to the dispossession and expulsion, by the new nationalism, of virtually the entire Jewish community, in a vast act of what would now be called ethnic cleansing.In all of this Victor, extraordinarily, retains his nostalgia for an earlier, pre-Nazi Germany, and in the 1950s re-establishes himself in Hamburg.
