Not Safe For Work
The company newsletter is about to get spicy . . . ?????
Engineer Trishara Malik once dreamed of being the first woman of colour to smash the glass ceiling at WMC Purcell, but after years of dealing with white male privilege and blatant nepotism, she watches her hard-earned promotion go to her nemesis, Rafe Gallagher - the boss's son. Teetering on the edge of burnout, Tris is stunned when she's picked to attend WMC's corporate leadership retreat in Hawaii. It's a chance to revive her stalled career and compete for a coveted spot in an executive training program - plus, three weeks in paradise! The only downside? Rafe is her co-attendee.
Tris plans to avoid Rafe entirely, but when she arrives in Maui, a booking error has them stuck sharing the honeymoon suite - with only one bed . . . Sure, it's not all torture. Rafe is a smoldering ten - okay fine, an eleven - but after years of competition, they can barely stand being in the same time zone. As they vie against each other during aptitude tests and team-building exercises, Tris begins to realize Rafe might not be the villain after all. With her dreams at stake, can she learn to trust the man who might have been standing in her corner all along?
Lótolvajok
A természet mitikus erejű ábrázolása ősi emócióink intenzív átélését szolgálja Per Petterson prózájában. A világhírű norvég írót csak a mélyben kavargó indulatok és éles érzelmek érdeklik: a szerelem, a féltékenység, a barátság, az árulás. A Lótolvajok páratlan sikerének kulcsa, hogy a regény egyesíti magában a kortárs norvég irodalom három fontos tematikai elemét: a háború (a német megszállás), a család (a család felbomlása) és a kívülálló, magányos férfi visszatérő motívumát.
Olvassák a Lótolvajokat! A regény a legelső, tömör mondatoktól kezdve bűvkörébe von, ahogy fiatalságról, emlékekről és igen, lótolvajlásról beszél. Tudják, egy mesteri mesélő kezei közé kerültek. (Newsweek)
Petterson szikár és megfontolt elbeszélési módja döbbenetes erővel bír... Egy fiú érzékelésének teljes intenzitásával adja át a veszteség érzését, de az új felhangokra is szert tesz az idősödő férfi tűnődő tudatosságában. (The New Yorker)
"Vágtattak felém a lovak. Hallottam szaggatott lihegésüket, a faág egyre erősebben rázkódott alattam, egész lényemet betöltötte a paták dübörgése, és amikor megpillantottam a hozzám legközelebb eső ló pofáját, lábamat szétterpesztve lassan csúszni kezdtem lefelé, elengedtem az ágat, és a ló hátára ugrottam. Kicsit elvétettem az ugrást, majdnem a nyakába érkeztem, az állat lapockái a combomhoz ütődtek, hullámokban tolult fel bennem a hányinger. Amikor Zorro hajtotta végre ezt a mutatványt a filmben, könnyűnek tűnt... A ló szilajon rázta sörényét, gerince az ágyékomat verte. Egyre gyorsabban vágtázott, akárcsak a másik ló, így aztán fej fej mellett dübörögtünk a fatönkök között. Hallottam, amint Jon elkurjantja magát mögöttem: - Juhé!"
(részlet a regényből)
Per Petterson 1952-ben született Oslóban. Íróként 1987-ben mutatkozott be. 1990-ben egy tragédia során elveszítette szüleit, egyik testvérét és egy unokatestvérét. A baleset motívuma, a fiú szüleihez fűződő kapcsolata állt ezután prózájának homlokterében. A világhírt a Lótolvajok megjelenése hozta el számára. A művet többek közt angol, német és francia nyelvre is lefordították. Norvégiában elnyerte a Könyvkereskedők Díját, a Kritikusok Díját, megkapott több francia díjat és az IMPAC díját, megelőzve olyan neves alkotókat, mint Salman Rushdie és J. M. Coetzee. A Lótolvajokat 2007-ben a New York Times az év öt legjobb szépirodalmi műve között tartotta számon.

SOUČÁST HELLBOY UNIVERSA
ZPo zničující výpravě do hor se Johann se svým týmem vydává na snadnou misi s cílem zničit jedinou příšeru. Avšak vše se zkomplikuje ve chvíli, kdy se proti Johannovi obrátí i samotný úřad. Přízračný agent se ocitá v nelehké situaci, jejíž součástí je i tajná zbraň z druhé světové války přezdívaná Sledgehammer.
Sicílske dedičstvo
Mladá Sicílčanka Serafina Forteová sa na začiatku dvadsiateho storočia nedobrovoľne stane manželkou a matkou, hoci vždy chcela od života viac. Postupne si vybuduje povesť liečiteľky, ibaže ospalá dedina na talianskom ostrove neprihliada na emancipovanú ženu vľúdne.
O dve generácie neskôr Sare Marsalovej zlyhá manželstvo a začína o sebe vážne pochybovať. A aby toho nebolo málo, v rovnakom čase zomiera aj jej milovaná prateta Rosie.
Tá jej zanechá letenku na Sicíliu, aby predala kus pôdy, ktorý patril ich rodine. Sara však ani netuší, že sa zamotá do spleti intríg, mafie a takmer sto rokov starej záhady okolo úmrtia svojej prastarej mamy Serafiny.
Čím hlbšie Sara pátra, tým viac sa sama vystavuje nebezpečenstvu, až napokon hrozí, že skončí rovnako tragicky ako jej predkyňa.
Spisovateľka a ocenená novinárka Jo Piazza berie čitateľov na „cestu do talianskej čižmy plnú zločinu, romantiky a ricotty“ za dedičstvom a rodinným tajomstvom, pre ochranu ktorého sú niektorí ochotní aj vraždiť...

Intermezzo
From the author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Normal People, an exquisitely moving story about grief, love and family.
Aside from the fact that they are brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek seem to have little in common.
Peter is a Dublin lawyer in his thirties - successful, competent and apparently unassailable. But in the wake of their father's death, he's medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women - his enduring first love Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is one long joke.
Ivan is a twenty-two-year-old competitive chess player. He has always seen himself as socially awkward, a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder brother. Now, in the early weeks of his bereavement, Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, and their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined.
For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude - a period of desire, despair and possibility - a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.

The problem? I have no idea who did this to her.

But too late, I realise I’ve enticed the most venomous snake.
Behind Kane’s perfect mask lies something far more dangerous than I ever imagined.
AND NOW I’M TRAPPED IN A LETHAL GAME WITH NO ESCAPE.
Ha itt lennél velem... - Ismert emberek ismeretlen történetei versekkel - Sorok között Lutter Imrével
Ha itt lennél velem, és fognád a két kezem - énekelhetjük Bódi László Cipő dalát. Vele indul és nagy formátumú, ismert emberek ismeretlen történeteivel folytatódik ez a verses interjúkötet, amely a Ha szeretsz... című népszerű könyv következő része. Minden egyes beszélgetés titkokat hordoz. Nemcsak azokat a történeteket, amelyeket a Sorok között Lutter Imrével című műsorból ismernek sokan, hanem az el nem hangzott, ám annál meghatározóbb gondolatokat is, amelyek megmutatják, miért fontos a család, a szerelem, az el nem árult barátság, a kötelék szüleink, nagyszüleink és gyermekeink között. Megmutatja, mennyivel erősebb az együtt-érzés, mint a bennünket gyakran elidegenítő hétköznapi gyötrődések. A költők, akik ugyanezt megélték, mást mesélnek el a kapcsolódó versek soraival: Dante, Arany János, Petőfi Sándor, Ady Endre, Szabó Lőrinc, Karinthy Frigyes, Radnóti Miklós, József Attila, Donny Hathaway, Faludy György, Ágai Ágnes, Adamis Anna vagy Buda Ferenc megrendítő, gyönyörű, vagy szimpla, de mindig igaz sorai adják az apropót azoknak, akik életük versének történetét megosztják. Ők Blaskó Péter, Bródy János, Frenreisz Károly, Gerendás Péter, Gianni Annoni, Gubik Petra, Gundel Takács Gábor, Halász Judit, Horváth Charlie, Huzella Péter, Jávori Ferenc Fegya, Joshi Bharat, Kálloy Molnár Péter, Kéri László, Király Viktor, Koltai Róbert, Lang Györgyi, Lily Ebert, Molnár Ferenc Caramel, Müller Péter Sziámi, Nagy Bandó András, Pásztor Anna, Szily Nóra, Szöllősi Györgyi és Trokán Péter.

Bod nasycení
Hydrometrický neobyvatelný region, neboli „Zóna“, je rostoucí pás deštného pralesa podél rovníku, kde žár a vlhkost znemožňují život teplokrevným živočichům. Nechráněný člověk v Zóně umírá během několika minut.
Před dvaceti lety přišla Jasmine Marksová do Zóny spolu se skupinou vědců vedenou doktorkou Elaine Fellovou, která měla za úkol studovat extrémní podnebí a posoudit, zda by se dalo využít v zemědělství.

Nyní Jasmine Marksovou posílají zpět. Ztroskotání letounu, záchranná výprava, závod s časem o záchranu přeživších. Ale jsou věci, o nichž Marksové její korporátní šéfové neřekli. Zóna i doktorka Fellová mají svá tajemství…
Lies and Weddings
Eden Tong is used to feeling out of place. Growing up next door to Greshamsbury Manor, she spent her days in the shadow of the chilly matriarch Arabella and her children: free-spirited Augie, golden child Bea, and Rufus, Eden’s childhood best friend.
When she receives an invite to a luxurious wedding in Hawaii, she finds herself thrown back into the family’s orbit: and face-to-face with Rufus. The future Earl is gorgeous, artistic, and – unbeknownst to Eden – desperately in love with her.
But his mother has other plans. Arabella knows the terrible truth – the Greshamsbury family is drowning in debt. Rufus needs to find a match with serious money to keep them afloat. Arabella is prepared to destroy anyone who gets in her way. Including Eden . . .
Lies and Wedding transports its reader from the white-sand beaches of Hawaii to the colourful medinas of Marrakech, via the glitzy bachelor pads of Beverly Hills and opulent English countryside manors. This is a hilarious, juicy, and page-turning story about love and money – and the lies we tell to keep them.

The Crimson Crown
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the most wicked of them all? Snow White's dark queen tells her side of the story in this queer, witchy reimagining of the classic fairy tale from the author of Malice.
Legends tell of a witch who became a queen - the heartless villain in the story of Snow White. But now the wicked queen is stepping out of Snow White's shadow to become the heroine of her own legend.
Her "once upon a time" began when she was just Ayleth, a young witch living in the forest with her coven, practicing their magic in secret and hiding from the White King's brutal war against witchcraft.
Ayleth, however, faces a war of her own. Her magical gifts have yet to reveal themselves, and as the threat of the Royal Huntsmen intensifies, she fears she will never become the witch her coven needs.
To prove herself, she sets out on a perilous quest that sends her to the White Palace, a decadent world of drama and deceit. There, she encounters an unlikely figure from her past, Jacquetta - the witch who once held Ayleth's heart - but then betrayed her.
As events at the palace escalate, Ayleth finds herself caught in the web of the White King, whose dark charisma is as dangerous as the sinister force that seems to be haunting the palace. With the threat of discovery looming, Ayleth and Jacquetta must set aside the wounds of their past and work together to survive.
But to do this, Ayleth must find the strength to transform into someone she never imagined she could be.
A powerful witch, the very wickedest of them all.
The In-Between Bookstore
A whimsical and healing novel about a trans man in New York who - almost 30, laid off, broke - moves back to his small Illinois hometown, walks into the bookstore he worked at in high school... and slips through time to come face to face with his pre-transition, teenage self.
If you had one chance to talk to your younger self… would you? What would you say?
When Darby left Oak Falls for university in New York City, all he wanted was to get as far away as possible, find a community where he could start afresh -- and finally forget about his childhood best friend Michael, and just how painfully their friendship ended.
Now, about to turn 30, Darby suddenly finds himself unemployed. With no better alternative, and questioning where he really belongs, he moves back to his hometown. But the changes in Oak Falls make him feel off balance. And Michael's still there, their relationship still distant and strained.
One thing is familiar: In Between Books, Darby's refuge growing up and high school job. When he walks inside, Darby feels an eerie sense of déjá vu - everything is exactly the same. Even the newspapers are dated 2009. And behind the till is a teen who looks a lot like Darby did at sixteen... a teen who just might give him the opportunity to change his own present for the better - if he can figure out how before his connection to the past vanishes forever.
That Time Everything Was On Fire
Sam and Daisy have been best friends since university. Back then Daisy was a wild, Fleetwood Mac-obsessed girl descended from the Yorkshire Moors, while Sam's youth was misspent traipsing around Liverpool on shopping trips and nights out.
But as they lean against each other on a wooden bench in the tired garden of their beloved local pub, gazing out at Sam's wedding, they have no idea that their paths are about to truly diverge for the first time.
As Sam's desire to become a mother consumes her, and Daisy's inability to resist temptation haunts her, these best of friends will lose sight of themselves - and each other. With each misstep and unintentional betrayal the gulf widens. But can they build a bridge, or will they let it burn?
Suspicion
A biting psychological thriller from the bestselling author of Tokyo Express, now available in English for the first time
Onizuka Kumako is a fierce woman: tall, beautiful, and not afraid to speak her mind. In Tokyo bars, she seduces customers and commits petty crime, using her connections to the local yakuza to get by. When she meets Shirakawa Fukutaro, a rich widower desperate for companionship and unaware of her shady past, the two hit it off and are soon married. But their newlywed bliss is suddenly cut short: one rainy July evening, their car veers off course, plunges into the harbour and Fukutaro is pulled beneath the waves.
Suspected of murder and labelled a femme fatale, Kumako is hounded by the press, but stays firm, repeatedly proclaiming her own innocence. As pressure from dogged journalists mounts, the tide of public opinion is rising against her. But when a scrupulous defence lawyer takes on her case, doubt begins to creep in . . .
In this intricate, psychological noir, masterfully translated into English for the first time, Seicho Matsumoto draws out the hidden demons that guide our convictions, our biases and our deepest desires.

"I would love you forever if I only had the chance..."
Kacey Dawson has always lived life on the edge - impulsively, sometimes recklessly. And now, as lead guitarist for a hot up-and-coming band, she is poised at the brink of fame and fortune.
But behind the scenes, Kacey is torn between wanting to be a serious musician and the demons that lure her down the glittering - albeit alcohol-soaked - path of rock stardom. A wrecked concert in Las Vegas threatens to ruin her career entirely. She wakes up with a hangover from hell and no memory of the night before, or how she ended up on her limo driver's couch...
Jonah Fletcher is running out of time. He knows his situation is hopeless, and he's vowed to make the most of the handful of months he has left to him. His plans include seeing the opening of his glass installation at a prestigious art gallery - they do not include falling in love with a wild, tempestuous rock musician who winds up passed out on his couch.
Jonah sees that Kacey is on a path to self-destruction. He lets her crash with him for a few days to dry out and get her head straight. But neither of them expected the deep connection they feel, or how that connection could grow so fast from friendship into something more. Something deep and pure and life-changing…something as fragile as glass, that they both know will shatter in the end - no matter how hard they try to hold on to it.
A beautiful and heartbreaking contemporary romance story about what it means to love with your whole heart, to sacrifice, to experience terrible grief and soaring joy…and in the end, to smile through tears and know you wouldn't have changed a thing.
