Kepler
The second volume of John Banville’s Revolutions Trilogy and winner of the Guardian Fiction Prize, Kepler is a gorgeous historical novel exploring the life of Johannes Kepler, one of the world’s greatest mathematicians.Johannes Kepler, born in 1571 in south Germany, was one of the world’s greatest mathematicians and astronomers. The novel Kepler, by John Banville, brilliantly recreates his life and his incredible drive to chart the orbits of the planets and the geometry of the universe while being driven from exile to exile by religious and domestic strife. At the same time it illuminates the harsh realities of the Renaissance world; rich in imaginative daring but rooted in poverty, squalor and the tyrannical power of emperors.‘Superbly illuminates the man, the time, and the everlasting quest for knowledge’ The Observer

Hotel Ukraine
Arkady Renko returns in this tense political thriller, from one of the undisputed masters of the genre. When Arkady Renko is charged with investigating the murder of Alexei Kazasky, the Deputy Minister of Defence, he knows he has to tread carefully. Alexei Kazasky is a high-profile politician and has a complicated relationship with Putin. This investigation clearly has Kremlin approval, but, as with everything in Russia, things are not always what they seem. Already preoccupied with his developing Parkinson’s, Arkady finds he has more to worry about. The war in Ukraine is gaining momentum, and his adopted son Zhenya has become involved with the Black Army, a Russo-Ukrainian group of hacktivists. Moreover, as Arkady digs deeper into Kazasky’s murder, he realizes that the man’s death may have been more politically motivated than he first assumed. Now it seems that the people behind the killing have him firmly in their crosshairs – but this time Arkady’s life is not the only one on the line.PRAISE FOR MARTIN CRUZ SMITH: 'Does more on a page than most writers manage in a chapter.

To Lose a War
Jon Lee Anderson first reported from Afghanistan in the late 1980s, covering the US-backed mujahideen’s insurrection against the Soviet-backed regime in Kabul. Within days of the 9/11 attacks, he was again on the ground as an early eyewitness to the new war launched by the US against the Taliban and their Al Qaeda allies. At the time, the American military had prevailed on the battlefield, and the newfound peace seemed to offer a precious space for Afghan society to restore itself and to forge a democratic future. But all was not well: Osama bin Laden was still in hiding, the Taliban were stealthily reorganizing for a comeback, and the United States was about to turn its attention to Iraq. To Lose a War collects Anderson’s writing from Afghanistan over a near-quarter-century span, offering a chronological account of a monumental tragedy as it unfolds. The colossal waste, missed signals, and wishful thinking that characterized the twenty-year arc of the US-led war in Afghanistan have consecrated it as one of the greatest foreign policy failures of the modern era, and a bellwether of a larger American imperial decline.

Ach, ty děti
Děti – nevinné i vychytralé, roztomilé i zlomyslné, zrcadla dospělého světa i jeho nečekaní rozvraceči. Povídková sbírka Ach, ty děti nabízí pestrý průřez pohledů na dětský svět očima dvanácti předních českých autorů a autorek. Co příběh, to jiný úhel – od humorného přes napínavý a hororově pohádkový až po mrazivá rodinná dramata, v nichž jde mnohdy o život. Děti zde nejsou jen objektem výchovy nebo obětí okolností, ale také aktivními hybateli děje – někdy zábavným, jindy znepokojivým způsobem. Jsou zobrazeny jednou jako statečné osobnosti, které přebírají roli rodičů, když tito selhávají, podruhé jako citoví vyděrači, malí ďasové, schopní zbořit dům, či bytosti, jež nás svými rozhodnutími mohou zachránit, utěšit anebo taky dostat do blázince, ba i do hrobu. Příběhy o vztazích mezi rodiči, prarodiči, potomstvem i mezi dětmi navzájem a o tom, jak láskyplné i vyhrocené tyto vztahy mohou být.
