The Naysayers
From bestselling authors Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke comes a witty, sharp-edged tale of corporate greed, unexpected romance, and the quiet power of our shared humanity. At Naysay Inc., rising star Megan’s job is to whisper negative thoughts straight into the minds of clients in the Real World. It’s all in a day’s dirty work in Naysayland, the parallel reality where your negativity is manufactured and self-doubt is a commodity. But when she is assigned to sabotage a romance between lifestyle influencer Lily and author Jasper, Megan’s carefully constructed reality begins to unravel. The project teams her with Ben, the smug but cute whisperer in the next cubicle. As they work to tear down Lily and Jasper’s situationship, Megan and Ben are catching feelings for each other. And it’s making them lose their negative edge. As their empathy grows, and they start rooting for the relationship they’re tasked with destroying, dreaded HR is sniffing around. Now they’re facing a choice: keep crushing dreams for a paycheck, or risk everything for their own fairy tale. Who knew professional pessimists could be such hopeless romantics?

"I'm just at the age when time speeds up in an odd way. . . . The winters come closer together and you begin to accept that you're not special anymore."

At this uncertain precipice, nothing could come as a stranger surprise than waking up one sunny morning on a park bench in an entirely different world. Yet that's where Marina finds herself: at a place called In The Beginning, populated by characters from literature waiting to be read - or, in some cases, written. Although Marina is bewildered by her sudden and unexpected arrival in this bustling realm of overlapping possibilities, she soon learns that In The Beginning is facing an existential threat, and she is uniquely positioned to help. So begins her quest to find Pearl, the one person who may hold the key to saving everyone. Delving deeper into this unusual world in pursuit of answers, Marina's journey leads her into the heart of herself and to a shocking truth. Ann Druyan packs this compelling adventure story with characters both familiar and new, offering a profound testament to the cosmic powers of imagination and curiosity. First published in 1977, A Famous Broken Heart resounds with wit and wisdom that continue to connect with readers.
Anatomy of an Alibi
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of First Lie Wins, a tense, feverish thriller about two women's lives that are forever intertwined when a murder threatens to expose them both.
Everyone at Chantilly's Bar noticed out-of-towner Camille Bayliss. Red lips, designer heels, sipping a Negroni. Flirted a little with a local but returned alone to her bed-and-breakfast before midnight in her sleek car.
But that woman wasn't Camille Bayliss. It was Aubrey Price.
Aubrey has been haunted by the terrible night that changed her life a decade ago, and she's convinced Benjamin Bayliss knows something about it. Living in a house full of criminals, Aubrey understands there's more than one way to get to the truth - and she may have found the perfect way in.
Camille Bayliss appears to have the picture-perfect life; she's married to hotshot lawyer Ben and is the daughter of a wealthy Louisiana family. Only nothing is as it seems: Camille believes Ben has been hiding dirty secrets for years, but she can't find proof because he tracks her every move.
Aubrey and Camille hatch a plan. It sounds simple: For twelve hours, Aubrey will take Camille's place. Camille will spy on Ben, and the two women will get the answers they desperately seek.
Except the next morning, Ben is found murdered. Both women need an airtight alibi, but only one of them has it. And one false step is all it takes for everything to come undone.
It can be murder to walk in another woman's shoes...

The Luminous Fairies and Mothra
The original story that hatched Mothra, one of the most beloved monsters in the “kaijuverse”—available in English for the first time Mystical and benevolent, the colossal lepidopteran Mothra has been one of the most beloved kaiju since 1961, when The Luminous Fairies and Mothra was originally published in Japanese. Commissioned by Toho Studios from three of Japan’s most prominent postwar literary writers (Shin’ichiro Nakamura, Takehiko Fukunaga, and Yoshie Hotta), the novella formed the basis for the now-classic monster film Mothra, with a protagonist second only to Godzilla in number of film appearances by a kaiju. Finally available in its first official English translation, The Luminous Fairies and Mothra will captivate ardent, longtime fans of the films as well as newcomers. Written just months after the largest political demonstrations Japan had ever seen, The Luminous Fairies and Mothra reflects the rebellious spirit of the time. In this original story, explorers visit a South Pacific island and capture a group of fairies, inciting the fury of the goddess Mothra, who sets out for Japan on a mission of rescue and revenge. Expressing a powerful social stance about Japan’s need to chart its own foreign policy during the Cold War, the novella’s political message was ultimately toned down in the Toho Studios film. Through this translation, Anglophone audiences will discover Mothra as a figure of protest fiction intricately reflecting the complex geopolitical situation in early 1960s Japan. The Luminous Fairies and Mothra is translated into lively prose by Jeffrey Angles, who also wrote an extensive afterword about the novella’s cultural context, the unusual story of its composition, and the development of the 1961 film. Following Angles’s best-selling translation of the original Godzilla novellas, this new work will once again delight kaiju fans everywhere. Retail e-book files for this title are screen-reader friendly with images accompanied by short alt text and/or extended descriptions.

Mueenuddin is a literary magician’ The Times‘Masterful storytelling’ Daily Mail‘A book you'll be hearing about again’ New York Times‘An excoriating epic of class and power’ Observer‘A future classic, pure and simple ... Simply put, the novel is a triumph’ Irish TimesMoving from Pakistan’s sophisticated cities to its most rural farmlands, This Is Where the Serpent Lives captures the extraordinary proximity of extreme wealth to extreme poverty in a land where fate is determined by class and social station. Daniyal Mueenuddin’s This Is Where the Serpent Lives paints a powerful portrait of contemporary feudal Pakistan and a farm on which the destinies of a dozen unforgettable characters are linked through violence and love, resilience, and tragedy. Yazid rises from abject poverty to the role of trusted servant to an affluent gangster; Saqib, an errand boy, is eventually trusted to lead his boss’s new farming venture, where he becomes determined to rise above his rank by any means necessary. Saqib’s boss, the wealthy landowner Hisham, reminisces about meeting his wife while she was dating his brother while Gazala, a young teacher, falls for Saqib and his bold promises for their future before learning about his plans to skim money from the farm’s profits. In matters of both business and the heart, Mueenuddin’s characters struggle to choose between the paths that are moral and the paths that will allow them to survive the systems of caste, capital, and social power that so tightly grip their country. ‘Stunning’ Los Angeles Times‘Mueenuddin recalls Chekhov ...

Tajný život
V knize Tajný život (1998, Vie secr?te) se Pascal Quignard noří do hlubin lidské duše a odkrývá vrstvy vnitřního života, které zůstávají skryté před pohledem ostatních – i často před námi samými. V útržkovitých, meditativních textech zkoumá motivy samoty, paměti, touhy a ticha. Quignard propojuje autobiografické reflexe s filozofickými úvahami a kulturními odkazy, čímž vytváří jedinečnou mozaiku intimity a myšlení. Jeho jazyk je zároveň střídmý i lyrický, ztišený i hluboký, a vede čtenáře k pozoruhodnému vnitřnímu rozhovoru o tom, co to znamená být – a být skrytě.
Pascal Quignard (1948) je francouzský spisovatel, esejista a překladatel, proslulý svou žánrově nezařaditelnou, mnohovrstevnatou tvorbou oscilující mezi beletrií, filozofií a autobiografií. Působil jako redaktor v nakladatelství Gallimard a jako prezident festivalu barokní hudby ve Versailles. Jeho styl je charakteristický fragmentárností, obrazností a výraznou introspekcí – často zkoumá témata paměti, ticha, sexuality, tělesnosti a jazyka. Nejznámějším autorovým textem je díky filmovému zpracování román Všechna jitra světa (1991); česky dále vyšly Bludné stíny, za něž roku 2002 získal Goncourtovu cenu, a Terasa v Římě (2000). Quignard je považován za jednoho z nejpronikavějších a nejoriginálnějších myslitelů současné francouzské literatury.
V noci na 27. ledna 1997 postihla Pascala Quignarda vážná zdravotní příhoda, z níž vyvázl jen o vlas. Tehdy se rozhodl zcela stáhnout z veřejného života a zasvětit se posledním, či v jeho případě prvním věcem člověka: archeologii slova, genealogii citu, etymologii smyslů, a to formou zlomků, úvah vycházejících z četby, lingvistického a jiného bádání. Tak vzniklo Poslední království, jedinečné literární dílo, které k dnešnímu dni čítá dvanáct svazků a jehož je Tajný život, přestože vyšel jako díl osmý, samým počátkem.
Beletria je často nazývaná aj krásnou, alebo umeleckou literatúrou. Toto označenie pochádza z francúzskeho názvu belles lettres (krásna literatúra). Výrazom beletria sa súhrnne označujú umelecké prozaické diela. K najznámejším beletristickým žánrom patrí poviedka, novela, román, črta či umelecká reportáž.
Romány, poviedky a novely ponúkajú pútavé príbehy s výraznými postavami a atmosférou. Divadelné hry zase slúžia ako materiál pre divadelné predstavenia a prinášajú konverzácie, dramatické situácie a komediálne alebo tragické prvky.
Beletria je neoddeliteľnou súčasťou literatúry, ktorá obohacuje naše vnímanie sveta a poskytuje nám príležitosť prežívať rôznorodé príbehy a vstúpiť do rôznych svetov. Bez ohľadu na to, či preferujete dobrodružstvo, romantiku alebo reflexiu, beletria vám umožní objaviť nové myšlienky, inšpirácie a zábavu.
