Engagement
A feminist cult classic about love, independence and what it means to be an individual, translated into English for the first time
'I want to have him, I really do. I just don't want him to have me.'
Martina and Gustav, students in 1970s Stockholm, meet and fall immediately into coupledom. But what is coupledom? A route to marriage? A declaration of co-dependency? A new dimension of commitment and responsibility? A sexual confrontation? Or is it a habit that an intelligent person must consider breaking? Martina and Gustav discuss their relationship endlessly, between themselves and with others, as they try to make it work.
Engagement, set during a time of social change and political upheaval, sees Martina trying to engage with the world on her own terms. Unwilling to marry, she finds herself in a state of permanent engagement while her friends settle down to marriage and children; uncertain of the world's future, she engages with demos, sit-ins and philosophy seminars in her quest for a new blueprint for joy. First published in 1976, when it was heralded as an instant classic, Engagement remains as relevant, hilarious and heartbreaking today.
Klub zhýralců 4: Bez milosti
Nechci mu ublížit – jen ho potrestat.
Už tak je dost špatné být jedinou ženou, která spoluvlastní Klub zhýralců, ale navíc jsem jediná bez úchylky.
Aspoň jsem si to myslela. Představte si moje překvapení, když mi „úchylkový kvíz“ prozradil, že možná přece jen nejsem tak docela „normální“.
Ve skutečnosti se totiž Emersonu Grantovi podobám mnohem víc, než jsem si myslela.
Je tu jen jeden problém – nemám ponětí, jak se stát něčí dominou. Nebo aspoň do chvíle, kdy mě aplikace spojí s někým, kdo mě to chce naučit.
Je pro mě moc mladý. Moc tvrdohlavý a moc hezký. A abych nezapomněla – je to syn mého kamaráda.
Beau Grant je spratek – což by mi vadilo, kdybych ho za to tak ráda netrestala.
Za jeho nezřízeným chováním se ale skrývá muž, který je nepochopený, nesobecký a jen potřebuje usměrnit.
Pokud ovšem chce, abych se nad ním smilovala, musí si to zasloužit.
Existuje totiž milion důvodů, proč bych se od něj měla držet dál, ale už mě nebaví dělat jen to, co bych měla.
Konečně vím, po čem toužím, a jsem připravená si vzít, co mi patří.

Nekonečný pád 3: Návrat domů
V závěrečném dílu trilogie se opět vracíme na natáčení filmové série Infinity Falling do Vancouveru. Tentokrát stojí v popředí mladičká herečka Megan Suttonová, která se ve filmu zhostila role hlavní antagonistky. Na druhé straně je pak o něco málo starší lékař na urgentu Cole Buchanan, který se právě potýká s vážným pracovním selháním.
K jejich setkání dojde naprosto náhodně, ale následně zjistí, že mají mnoho společného, a to nejen kamarády, ale i pracoviště. Cole totiž záhy nastupuje na plac jako filmový lékař. Jejich vztah však rozhodně nekopíruje klasické milostné schéma. Cole je zvyklý si užívat a má za to, že na závazky není stavěný, jak se taky v minulosti přesvědčil. Megan je v tomto ohledu naopak doslova nepolíbená, ačkoliv ji v médiích neustále obviňují, že rozvrací cizí vztahy.
Vznikne tak model výhodný pro obě strany – Cole s Megan svůj vztah pouze předstírají na veřejnosti. Co když se však předstírané city změní v opravdové? Dokážou se přenést přes oboustranná vztahová traumata, vysoké pracovní vytížení a v neposlední řadě i přes nemalý věkový rozdíl?

Finding My Way
Thrust onto the public stage at just fifteen years old after the Taliban's brutal attack on her life, Malala quickly became an international icon - but away from the cameras and crowds, she was a young woman struggling to find her place in a world that was telling her the role she had to play. Now, for the very first time, Malala takes readers behind the headlines in her candid and revelatory memoir that buzzes with authenticity, sharp humour and tenderness. From friendship to first love, failed exams to impulsive adventures, Finding My Way reminds us that real role models aren't perfect - they're human. And through moments of astonishing vulnerability, Malala reveals the psychological toll of the Taliban shooting that nearly ended her life - and shares her gratitude for the kindness and empathy that saved her.
This is not the story you think you know. It's the one Malala has been waiting to tell.

The Final Six
When the stakes are at their highest, how low would you go?
Shogo Hatano has beaten thousands of applicants to become one of six final candidates in the running for a graduate position at Japan's most exclusive tech company. Only one will be chosen - a decision made by the applicants themselves.
In a glossy high-rise office in Tokyo, the interview begins. All six of them are equally measured and polished, until they discover the envelopes. One for every candidate. Each containing a secret so terrible that they could ruin more than just careers. They could destroy lives.
The evidence was clearly planted by someone in the room. As suspicion coils tighter and alliances fracture, it's clear the question is no longer who deserves the job, but how far are they willing to go to get it.
Because behind the polite mask and slick words is a monster capable of anything in the pursuit of their goal. But are any of them truly who they say they are?

The Unicorn Hunters
With her country's future and her own life at stake, an orphaned duchess must journey into a world of myth and there discover a power that may be her salvation - or her demise - in this enchanting new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the Winternight Trilogy and The Warm Hands of Ghosts.
Anne of Brittany was a child when her land was invaded, her castle besieged, and her royal father driven to his death.
Now Brittany is occupied by her enemies, her treasury empty, and only one thing is lacking to complete her realm's subjugation: she is required, on pain of the sword, to marry the King of France.
But Anne cannot. She has promised her dead father that Brittany would never be conquered.
Defiantly, she betroths herself in secret to France's greatest enemy. But in a world where courts may spy on each other by magic, there is only one way to solemnize this illicit union.
Under the guise of a hunting party, Anne takes her court deep into a deep forest, a strange place dogged with rumours of ancient enchantments; a place where diviners cannot see. She tells the French that she had gone there to hunt unicorns.
It's a ruse, a lie, a feint.
But when, against all expectations, a unicorn does appear and a wounded stranger stumbles from the trees and falls at her feet, Anne is plunged into a world of enchantment where a doomed sovereign might find the power to change the destiny of her nation - or be lost in the mist for ever.

Kdysi býval Lukáš králem detektivek, ale ty časy už jsou pryč. Teď hledá vyhořelý spisovatel způsob, kterým by se mohl vrátit na výsluní. A jak lépe najít ztracenou múzu než během skutečného detektivního pátrání? Jenže jak se ukáže, psát o zločinech je mnohem snazší než snažit se odhalit, kam zmizela jedna nenápadná dívka.

Vyhaslý bestsellerista zjistí, že dobrý spisovatel nutně nemusí být dobrý detektiv – ale naštěstí není na hledání pravdy sám.
Královna české fantastiky Kristýna Sněgoňová se pouští na pole detektivek a jde na to s humorem i zběsilostí sobě vlastní. Tyhle zločiny vás budou rozhodně bavit.

Rethinking the Penal State
In this book based on his 2024 Adorno Lectures, Loic Wacquant combines social theory, comparative history and structural ethnography to probe criminal punishment as a core function of the state. Extending Pierre Bourdieu's concepts of bureaucratic field and symbolic power, he captures the constitutive duality of punishment, at once material and symbolic, an instrument of class control and a means of communicating values, endlessly oscillating between rehabilitation and retribution. Ranging from the birth of the workhouse prison in sixteenth-century Europe to the deployment of punishment in the colonies to the workaday world of prosecutors in a California criminal court, Wacquant reveals how the penal state curates crime, manages urban marginality, signals sovereignty, and manufactures legitimacy in the eyes of the population by restoring control over bodies out of order. But the penal Leviathan is a bifurcated state which captures nearly exclusively dispossessed and dishonored categories by targeting their neighborhoods: it is everywhere a class-splitting and a race-forging institution based on the stubborn differentiation of "paper penality" and "street penality."Getting inside the machinery of criminal justice shows that punishment must be placed at the epicenter of the political sociology of statecraft, group-making and place-making in the metropolis as well as brought to the forefront of civic debate to articulate a radical penal minimalism suited to reconciling punishment and democratic ideals.
A Spy in the Blood
Mark Wolfe was the greatest spy of his generation.
Now he's been put out to pasture.
Gone are the days of dead-drops beneath railway station clocks in foreign lands that no longer exist - of dry-cleaning, double agents and triple crosses. Now Mark's stuck behind a desk in Vauxhall Cross in charge of recruiting the next wave of spooks, his only excitement fending off advances from deep-pocketed private security companies.
Yet his discontent is just another secret to add to the pile. As far as his wife and children are concerned, Mark is a quiet, affable civil servant who has no idea how to use the TV remote.
So when he discovers his daughter, Jody, has an unhealthy obsession with joining MI6, Mark is caught off guard. The Service is keeping her recruitment a secret from him - but why?
Then Jody disappears during a mission. And with MI6 washing their hands of her, Mark is thrust back into a terrifying new world of modern espionage.
A truly epic espionage thriller, A Spy in the Blood takes you from modern day London to Afghanistan as a once-legendary spy confronts the complex horrors of modern tradecraft.
