BOSS, BXTCH, BABY Vol. 1


Hojin Koo is in deep trouble. Ruthless loan sharks are after him, demanding payment for a debt his runaway brother left behind. Just when he braces for the worst, a group of suited strangers swoops in to save him. But his relief is short-lived—his rescuer turns out to be a former one-night stand with a wild proposal: become his personal plaything for a year, and the debt disappears. Reluctantly, Hojin agrees. At first, he’s nothing more than a pet for the eccentric corporate heir, but as time passes, he glimpses the loneliness beneath the man’s wealth and power. As their relationship evolves and emotions stir, is Hojin falling into something real—or just making another terrible mistake?

Příběh o ohni a popelu


Petr Motýl patří k autorům, kterým jakoby „to psalo samo“. Příběh o ohni a popelu se nezkrotně valí a čtenář je neustále osvěžován nádhernými výrazy z ostravského i frýdecko-místeckého nářečí. Motýl nás vede na samotný začátek dvacátého století a v nerozsáhlé próze rozehrává konflikt dvou životů – života spjatého s městem, v němž se mohutně rozvíjí hutní průmysl, a životem zakořeněným v horách, v přírodě. Hlavní hrdina Anton Rechtman je mistrem u martinské pece na Karlově huti, jeho milá, Tereza Foldynová, pochází z hor nad Starými Hamry. Motýl zde navíc umně pracuje s nádhernou baladou Petra Bezruče Maryčka Magdonova. Člověk se rád stane „čtenářem, kterého Petr Bezruč hluboko zaryl do své básně, přehluboko, až čtenář už ani nedýchá.“

The Smythes


A CLASSIC 1930s COMIC STRIP: The New Yorker?s first art editor satirizes the petit bourgeoisie in these stylishly eccentric cartoons with echoes of Cheever and Wodehouse.Rea Irvin was The New Yorker?s first art editor and creator of the magazine?s iconic mascot, the butterfly enthusiast Eustace Tilly. In 1930, he ventured into new territory with the comic strip The Smythes. The Smythes?comprised of John, Margie, and their two forgettable children, Willie and Maudie?are a niceish suburban family, restless in their social stature, and eager to climb a sometimes wobbly social ladder (a ladder made even wobblier by the Great Depression). Irvin?s distinct, graceful line renders the Smythes in all their glory and hilarity as they navigate ill-fated dinner parties with pompous socialites, fend off robbers dressed as Santa, and get chased out of restaurants by cleaver-wielding chefs. With flavors of the upper-crust humor of Wodehouse and the suburban surrealism of Cheever, The Smythes drolly captures the joys, heartbreaks, and humiliations of being in a family. Handpicked by acclaimed cartoonists R. Kikuo Johnson and Dash Shaw?who also penned the introduction together?this new selection of Smythes strips also includes an afterword by comics historian Caitlin McGurk that sheds new light on Irvin?s work and life. An unsung masterpiece of cartooning, The Smythes is finally available to a new generation of readers ready to marvel at the full reach of Irvin?s artistic abilities.
