Narcis
Narcis je emotivní a upřímný román o lásce, která se postupně mění v past.
Martina, kamarádka Lindy ze Sedmi a půl roku, deset let milovala muže, který umí milovat jen sám sebe. Na začátku byl přitažlivý, okouzlující, dokonalý, na konci stál cizinec, který ji chtěl zničit. O tom, jak těžké je poznat manipulaci, když je ukrytá za úsměvem. A také o odvaze, síle a cestě ven. I když kniha vypráví Martinin příběh, znovu se setkáte s hrdiny knihy Sedm a půl roku: Lindou, Annou, Danielem, Pipkou a dalšími.
Martina potkává muže, který ji okamžitě okouzlí. Je sebevědomý, charismatický, plný života – a pro Martinu ztělesněním všeho, o čem snila. Na začátku vztahu je šťastná a věří, že konečně našla partnera, se kterým vybuduje rodinu. Jenže za dokonalou maskou se postupně odkrývá jiná tvář. Petr dokáže být něžný i krutý, láskyplný i chladný. Každý okamžik štěstí je vykoupen bolestí. Martina se přesto snaží vztah udržet za každou cenu, protože věří, že láska a rodina stojí za boj. Kniha sleduje deset let jejich společného života – od prvotní euforie, přes založení rodiny až k okamžikům, kdy manipulace a zklamání vedou k nečekanému rozchodu a boji o budoucnost Martiny i dětí. Do příběhu zároveň vstupují i postavy z románu Sedm a půl roku, znovu se setkáte s Lindou či Annou, jejichž osudy se s Martininým příběhem proplétají. Narcis je příběhem o iluzích, manipulaci a síle najít sama sebe – i když to znamená postavit se tváří v tvář muži, kterého jste kdysi milovala víc než cokoliv na světě.
Scrypthoria A könyvtárak városa
Kedves Olvasó!
Hiszel az Elvarázsolt Könyvek Városának legendájában? A csodálatos Scryptoriában, ahol olyan sok könyvet tartanak, amennyit emberi szem még sosem látott?
Ezennel kezedben tartod a meghívót az évente egyszer megrendezett Könyvtárak Éjszakájára, amin csak a kiválasztottak vehetnek részt.
Tetszik ez a megszólítás? Vigyázz, ne bízd el magad, mert rajtad kívül mások is veled tartanak a kihívásra.
A nyertes egy minden képzeletet felülmúló nyereményben részesül, aki akár te is lehetsz. A könyvmolyok vágyainak netovábbja ez a hely, ám a végtelen könyvtár egy talán soha véget nem érő, különös kalandra csábít, ahonnan nem biztos, hogy ép ésszel térsz vissza.
Akárcsak Elodie, aki kíváncsian vágott neki a Scryptoriába vezető útnak, de a jóképű, udvarias Kaeden és a sötét, misztikusan vonzó Draven összebogozta a szálakat sorsa pergamenjén.
Nem baj, ha kételkedsz. Csak arra vigyázz, nehogy beszippantson a képzelődés, és ne tudd, hol kezdődik a valóság...
The Raven of Ruwi and Other Stories from Oman
In this lyrical collection, Omani author Hamoud Saud invites readers into the soul of Muscat, the capital city of Oman, a country famed for its long coastline, rugged mountains, and stark desert landscapes. This geography provides the backdrop for stories that reveal both the beauty and hardship of a country and people on the margins. Saud’s Muscat is not a postcard-perfect city but a living, breathing place of cement forests, forgotten roundabouts, and ravens perched on bank flagpoles. In "The Raven of Ruwi," a narrator wanders the city’s commercial district where Indian music drifts from balconies and the streets are filled with weary bank workers. In "The Sad Donkey of Muscat," a blind man recounts the city’s history as told to him by a donkey. And in "Post Office of the Dead," a forgotten postmaster receives letters from Dostoevsky and Kafka, triggering a surreal unraveling of time and identity. These stories are fabulist in spirit but grounded in the textures of everyday life: the scent of karak tea, the chatter of schoolgirls, the heat rising from asphalt. At once intimate and expansive, The Raven of Ruwi and Other Stories from Oman is a powerful meditation on place, identity, and the stories that cities tell.
The Horizon Line
An emphatic deep dive into the continual movement required of migrants, The Horizon Line studies a relatively recent and little-explored social and migratory phenomenon. For about a decade, the somewhat unprecedented occurrence of double migration has been observed in Italian Bangladeshis engaging in a second move to London. Told through the lens of a fictionalized ethnographer and presented in the form of accessible and captivating comics, this book traces the concept of onward migration and the lives shaped by it. Through interviews with Italian Bangladeshis who made the difficult decision to re-uproot their lives in search of better, social scientists and comic artists Francesco Della Puppa, Francesco Matteuzzi, and Francesco Saresin come together to highlight the joys and struggles of this new (e)migration. The authors offer insights on the dynamism of these “new Italian citizens.” and on the migration routes shaped by the continuous global transformations, and on the social, political, and economic situation of Italy and the Southern European countries. Moreover, by following the trajectories of Stefano the researcher, the book provides valuable insight into the modalities, processes, difficulties and turning points of conducting ethnographic research. An essential contribution to migration studies, The Horizon Line gives voice to diasporic communities and sheds light on their most current trials and tribulations.
Mým žalářem je svoboda
Autor v této sbírce pokračuje v provázení svých čtenářů krok za krokem stezkami, kterými se ubírá jeho duch, a přibírá je k účasti na svém putování za pravdou a smyslem života. Stále je věrný směru, mířenému do sebe sama, do své duše, své podstaty a na to navazující zkoumání přírody a světa a vztahů mezi oběma oblastmi. Věří, že pochopení souvislostí a touha po harmonii pomáhá snáze pronikat do tajů vztahových komplikací a šířit nejen pozitivní myšlení kolem sebe, ale především lásku a soucit. V případě této poslední sbírky se dá již říci, že autor se mnohem více blíží k archetypu žánru, umělecky snad nejrafinovanějšího druhu básnické tvorby, který se pohybuje na hranici poezie, filosofie, intelektuálního vtipu, bonmotu, zhuštěné anekdoty či hudby myšlenky a ticha.
Jahodová palacinkáreň
Iris je na pokraji zrútenia. Už tri mesiace nevyplatila nájomné a jej práca v Obchodíku s vianočnými stromčekmi bola len sezónna. Ako inštruktorka jogy svoju prácu miluje, ale láskavosť ju neuživí. Predaj palaciniek v stánku ju tiež nevytrhne z biedy. Snaží sa však myslieť pozitívne, o čom svedčia aj jej výrazné červené vlasy. No musí sa o seba predsa postarať! Archer si nikdy nepredstavoval, že by sa mal usadiť v takom malom meste, akým je Dream Harbor. Miloval pulzujúci Paríž a svoju prácu šéfkuchára. Lenže nečakaná správa, že má dcéru, ho prinúti podniknúť kroky, ktoré ho zavedú na cestu, o akej sa mu ani nesnívalo. Odrazu býva v prenajatom domčeku so svojou malou dcérkou, ktorá s ním nekomunikuje, a s opatrovateľkou, ktorá je až príliš krásna. No toto mestečko mu lezie na nervy, keďže mu stále klopú na dvere milé, no všetečné susedky, ktoré mu varia, akoby ani nebol šéfkuchár. Archer nevie, ktorý problém riešiť skôr. Avšak ako sa vraví, láska ide cez žalúdok. A čo keď si nakoniec toto malebné mestečko napokon získa jeho srdce a on nájde to, čo ani netušil, že mu chýba?
Jed v šálke čaju
Zločin počas čajového obradu
Kto mal motív zavraždiť bohatú filantropku?
Prvý prípad novinárky Nory Valliovej
Novinárka Nora Valliová sa po niekoľkých rokoch života v Japonsku rozviedla a vrátila do Talianska. Žije v Miláne a pracuje pre časopis Dnešná žena. Keď dostane za úlohu napísať článok o novom sídle čajovej školy známeho japonského majstra, ktorú navštevujú najmä bohaté Milánčanky, zúčastní sa spolu s nimi na inauguračnom čajovom obrade. Počas ceremónie skolabuje obľúbená filantropka Ludovica Cattaneová, a keď neskôr v nemocnici zomrie, všetci sú presvedčení, že dostala infarkt. Pitva však prinesie prekvapivý záver – Ludovicu niekto otrávil. Ako sa to mohlo stať, keď pri obrade pili všetci prítomní vrátane majstra z tej istej šálky?
Do vyšetrovania záhadného prípadu sa zapojí aj Nora a spolu s nevľúdnym policajným komisárom Malacarnem sa pustí do odhaľovania tajomstiev milánskej smotánky. Postupne vyjde najavo, že Ludovica nebola taká dobrosrdečná, ako sa zdalo, a že nejedna jej priateľka mala na ňu ťažké srdce. Kto ju však nenávidel až tak veľmi, že ju chcel zniesť zo sveta?

Vidím, že vás láka tma
Andrij Oleksandrovyč Geister bol dobrovoľníkom v cudzineckej légii. Keď sa v roku 2014 vrátil na Ukrajinu, bolo všetko iné. Akákoľvek bežná situácia sa stala pre neho spúšťačom posttraumatickej stresovej poruchy (PTSD) a nebyť dobráckeho policajného vyšetrovateľa Valeru, ktorý mu ponúkol miesto konzultanta na kriminálnej polícii, ocitol by sa vo vážnych problémoch. Andrij vytváral v práci psychologické profily zločincov. Mal tesne po tridsiatke, no stále nevedel, čo vlastne chce, a život mu uštedroval jednu ranu za druhou. S milovanou ženou sa pohádal a vzápätí dostal správu o úmrtí matky. Kým cestoval na jej pohreb kamsi na juh krajiny, jeho žena v hlavnom meste spáchala samovraždu. Ukázalo sa, že čakala Andrijovo dieťa, ktorému teraz zostávajú mizivé šance na prežitie a lekári bojujú o jeho prežitie. Andrij by najradšej zostal v hlavnom mieste a nepovšimnuto by sa upil na smrť, vyšetrovateľ Valera ho však vyslal na služobnú cestu do zabudnutej dediny, kde má odhaliť sériu vrážd. Jedna po druhej tu mizli mladé ženy a neskôr sa nachádzali ich zohavené telá, posledná obeť však bola iná. Zmizlo šesťročné dievčatko s autizmom a sluchovou poruchou.
Autor do formy mystického trileru vložil úvahy o vine, pokání a tabu. Ukazuje, že nie všetci, ktorí porušujú tabu, sú zločinci, a nie všetci, ktorí trestajú, stoja na strane spravodlivosti.

A Harvest of Hearts
Howl's Moving Castle meets The House in the Cerulean Sea in Andrea Eames’ Sunday Times bestselling cosy fantasy: a cheeky butcher's daughter, a befuddlingly handsome sorcerer, and his clever talking cat unlock magical secrets in the dark heart of their kingdom – and just might discover the meaning of true love. Everyone in Foss Butcher’s village knows what happens when the magic-workers come; they harvest human hearts to use in their spells. That’s just how life in her kingdom works. But Foss, plain, clumsy, and practical as a boot, never expected anyone would want hers. When a sorcerer snags a piece of Foss’s heart without meaning to, she is furious. For once a heart is snagged, the experience is … well, unpleasant. So, Foss finds herself stomping toward the grand City to keep his enchanted House and demands that he fixes her before she keels over and dies, or whatever happens when hearts are Snagged. But the sorcerer, Sylvester, is not what she expected. Petulant, idle, and new to his powers, Sylvester has no clue how to undo the heart-taking, or how to do much of anything really, apart from sulk. Foss’s only friend is a talking cat and the walls themselves have moods. As Foss searches for a cure, she accidentally uncovers that there is much more to the heart-taking – and to the magic-workers themselves – than she could have ever imagined…
Thou Savage Woman
A Daily Telegraph and BBC History Magazine Book of the Year 'Popular history at its best' Spectator 'Boisterous… replete with stabbings, bashing and thumping' Daily Mail 'A cocktail of brutal, tragic, and fascinating true crime from the era of the Tudors and Stuarts. This dark history at its best, narrated with empathy and precision' Gareth Russell LADY KILLERS AND FEMME FATALES – STORIES OF MURDER MOST FOUL – HAVE GRIPPED PUBLIC IMAGINATION FOR CENTURIES Early Modern Britain was awash with pamphlets, ballads, woodcuts broadcasting bloodthirsty tales of traitorous wives, greedy mistresses, cunning female poisoning lacing the supper with deadly substances; of child killers and spiteful witches, stories of women wholly and unnaturally wicked. These were printed or sung, tacked the walls of alehouses, sold in the streets for pennies and read voraciously to thrill all. But why? When the vast majority of murders then (and now) are committed by men. In this bold, page-turning new history, former police officer and historian Blessin Adams tells stories of women whose violent crimes shattered the narrow confines of their gender – and whose notoriety revealed a society that was at once repulsed by and attracted to murderous female rebellion. Based on detailed research in court archives, each chapter explores murders that thrilled and terrified the British public; the crimes that caused the most concern and provoked the most debate. Women in this period killed rarely, and when they did it was usually within the context of extreme provocation or domestic violence. Adams has the ability of the best crime novelists in recreating the setting in which each case occurred as well as the motivations of each perpetrator. Thou Savage Woman reminds us that women in the past had voices, that they sought to control their bodies and their environments and that they also had the capacity for committing acts of unspeakable violence.

But every superstition is rooted in truth, and when her grandfather goes missing Emeline will be forced to return to Edgewood and the forest beyond. There, even Hawthorne Fell, a brooding tithe collector, cannot dissuade her from her path – a path that will lead her into the court of the fabled Wood King himself – and into a bargain with the deadliest price. Featuring a bonus chapter exclusive to print and digital editions. 'Darkly gorgeous and moving… full of curses and fae magic that will capture your heart and wrap it in thorns before setting you free again, forever changed' Evelyn Skye, New York Times bestselling author of The Crown's Game Originally published in North America as Edgewood.

The Last of Earth
A STUNNING HISTORICAL NOVEL FROM WOMEN'S PRIZE LONGLISTED AUTHOR ‘An epic, perilous odyssey.' Guardian, Book of the Day* One of BBC's '12 books you need to read in 2026' * A Guardian Book of the Day* A BookBub 'Best Historical Fiction of 2026' selection'This book is a triumph.' Laila Lalami, author of The Dream HotelA spellbinding story about two outsiders who venture into the Forbidden Kingdom of Tibet, both driven by a motive they are desperate to keep secret. In 1869, the mountainous territory of Tibet is closed to foreigners, an infuriating obstacle to Europeans racing to expand their empires. In response, Britain begins training Indians – permitted to cross borders that white men may not – to undertake illicit, perilous expeditions within Tibet. Balram is one such surveyor-spy, recruited to guide an English captain on a foolhardy mission. His path will soon cross with that of another unlikely explorer, Katherine. Fleeing a life of frustrated ambition, belittled by her male peers, Katherine has a plan to secure her legacy as the first European woman to reach Lhasa and the legendary Potala Palace. As they battle to survive, Balram and Katherine face storms and bandits, snow leopards and soldiers, fevers and frostbite. But nothing is more dangerous than the secrets that snap at their heels, in this unforgettable story about the obsessions of the colonial enterprise, and the ways we endeavour to leave a mark on the world.
The House of Fallen Sisters

No Place to Bury the Dead
“[A] rich and lyrical tale of desperation and redemption . . . Throughout, Sainz Borgo applies stark poetry to the terrifying setting, where ''moans and cries attributed to ghosts sometimes masked executions and beatings.'' It’s a stunner.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)“[A] deeply felt meditation on migration, mourning and the simultaneous entanglement and estrangement of the living and the dead” —Los Angeles TimesWinner of the 2023 Jan Michalski Prize, a searing novel of loss and resilience that illuminates the often-overlooked human dimension of the migrant crisis, re-imagining the border as a dreamlike purgatory bridging life and death.In an unnamed Latin American country, a mysterious plague quickly spreads, erasing the memory of anyone infected. Angustias Romero flees with her family, but their flight is tragically cut short when she loses both her children. Consumed by grief, she finds herself within the hallucinatory expanse of Mezquite––a town corrupted by greed and populated by storytellers, refugees, and violent, predatory gangs.Here, Angustias is finally able to lay her children to rest at the Third Country, a cemetery run by the larger-than-life Visitación Salazar and a refuge beyond suffering and fear. While Visitación remains defiant in her mission to care for the dead, the cemetery she oversees is the focal point of a bitter land dispute with Alcides Abundio, the most feared landowner of the border. Caught in this power struggle, Angustias and Visitación–friends and sometimes rivals– stand their ground on a frontier where the law is dictated by violence; a surreal territory whose very nature blurs the boundaries between life and death.Exploring what we are capable of and how far we will go when we have nothing to lose, No Place to Bury the Dead confirms Karina Sainz Borgo’s importance amongst the voices of modern Latin American literature, merging thriller, western, and classic tragedy in an unforgettable and urgent novel that won the 2023 Jan Michalski Prize.Translated from the Spanish by Elizabeth Bryer
