Zrcadlová četba - Great Expectations - Nadějné vyhlídky (B1-B2)
Příběh malého Pipa začíná v bažinatém kraji Kentu. Když tam jednou o Vánocích náhodou potká uprchlého vězně, netuší, že se jeho život už brzy navždy změní. Sled úžasných událostí následujících po tomto setkání a tragický, záhadný příběh slečny Havishamové a její krásné, ale chladné adoptivní dcery Estelly činí z Nadějných vyhlídek jedno z nejoblíbenějších děl Charlese Dickense.
The story of young Pip starts on marshes of Kent. When he accidentally meets an escaped convict one Christmas Eve, he has no idea that his life is about to change forever. The amazing events following that encounter, and the tragic, mysterious tale of Miss Havisham and her beautiful but cold adoptive daughter Estella, have made Great Expectations one of Dicken’s best-loved works.

Toll és vonó
"Sorozatunk híres asszonyokat bemutató ágán elérkeztünk a 18. századhoz. Csupa rejtély ez a korszak is.
Ki ügyködött II. Rákóczi Ferenc kuruc táborában, műveivel lelkesítve a katonákat: Cinka Panna, a hegedűs, vagy Losárdy Zsuzsanna, a költő? Hogyan lett irodalmi téma "a lőcsei fehér asszony" dicstelen, ám fordulatos, logikai és pszichológiai "bakugrásokkal" tarkított története? Miért láthatunk ma is felemelt kézzel egy üvegkoporsóban nyugvó hölgyet a krasznahorkai várkápolnában?
És jönnek az első valódi női alkotók.
Petrőczy Kata Szidónia, aki lelki sérülései gyógyítására, mintegy "pszichodrámaként" használta a versírást. "Árva" Bethlen Kata, a komor és fanatikus özvegy emlékiratíró. Török Sophie, Kazinczy Ferenc felesége, aki a férjének tartott felolvasás szünetében szülte meg gyorsan gyermekét. Baumberg Gabriella, a magyar Batsányi János hányatott sorsú osztrák költőnő-felesége. Dukai-Takách Judit, aki iránt Berzsenyi Dániel plátói érzelmeket táplált volna, ha tudja egyáltalán, mi fán terem az ilyesmi...
Amit ígérhetünk. Most sem fognak unatkozni." (a Kiadó)

Hisztimesék
Hisztizik a kisgyerek - nem akar öltözni, ebédelni, rendet rakni, vagy éppen csak fel szeretné hívni magára a figyelmet. A könyv meséi válsághelyzetben születtek: síró-rívó, hisztiző kisgyerekei megnyugtatására találta ki őket a szerző. A kedves, rövid kis történetek a mindennapok apró, de sokszor megoldhatatlannak tűnő nehézségeit segítenek áthidalni a gyerekeknek és szüleinek.
A remek illusztrációk és rövid párbeszédek az állandóan lapozni vágyó, türelmetlen gyerekek számára is felolvashatóvá és élvezhetővé teszik a meséket.
A kötet elején - bevezetés helyett - egy a szülőknek szóló, bátorító-vigasztaló "igaz mese" található. A könyv végén pedig egy ráadásmese, amelynek semmi különös tanulsága nincs, egyszerűen a derűs pillanatokra való.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation
A shocking, hilarious and strangely tender novel about a young woman’s experiment in narcotic hibernation, aided and abetted by one of the worst psychiatrists in the annals of literature. Our narrator has many of the advantages of life, on the surface. Young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, she lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like everything else, by her inheritance. But there is a vacuum at the heart of things, and it isn’t just the loss of her parents in college, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her alleged best friend. It’s the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong?
This story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs, designed to heal us from our alienation from this world, shows us how reasonable, even necessary, that alienation sometimes is. Blackly funny, both merciless and compassionate – dangling its legs over the ledge of 9/11 – this novel is a showcase for the gifts of one of America’s major young writers working at the height of her powers.
Daisy Jones and The Six
THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Daily Mirror best fiction pick of 2019A Daily Express best book of 2019'I LOVE it . . .
I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON
They were the new icons of rock and roll, fated to burn bright and not fade away. But on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down. There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom.
There was Camila, the frontman's wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode - and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy. There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn't ready for her. And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour.
They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames. It's never just about the music...

ERIN KELLY'DAISY JONES & THE SIX is a transporting novel - at once a love story, a glimpse into the combustible inner workings of a rock-and-roll band, and a pitch-perfect recreation of the music scene of the Fleetwood Mac era.

You bet, but it's Daisy's refusal to become a mere muse that powers this buzzy music-industry romance.' HEPHZIBAH ANDERSON, MAIL ON SUNDAY'The characters leap off the page, seducing you with their dramas, and making you wish the band was real.' HEAT'The heady haze of the 70s music scene, and a perfectly flawed Daisy, combine to create a fresh, rock n roll read. I loved it.' ALI LAND, author of Good Me Bad Me
Lord of the Flies

e of a terrifying beast. As the boys' delicate sense of order fades, so their childish dreams are transformed into something more primitive, and their behaviour starts to take on a murderous, savage significance. First published in 1954, "Lord of the
Flies" is one of the most celebrated and widely read of modern classics.

The Japanese Myths
The perfect introduction to the world of Japanese myth and legend.
This is a smart and succinct guide to the rich tradition of Japanese mythology, from the earliest recorded legends of Izanagi and Izanami, their divine offspring and the creation of Japan, to medieval tales of vengeful ghosts, through to the modern-day reincarnation of ancient deities as the heroes of mecha anime. While many around the world love Japan's cultural exports, few are familiar with Japan's unique mythology - enriched by Shinto, Buddhism and regional folklore.
Mythology remains a living, evolving part of Japanese society, and the ways in which the people of Japan understand their myths are very different today even from a century ago, let alone over a millennium into the past. Offering much more than any competing overview of Japanese mythology, The Japanese Myths not only retells the ancient stories but also considers their place within the patterns of Japanese religions, culture and history, helping readers to understand the deep links between past and present in Japan, and the ways these myths live and grow.
Joshua Frydman takes the very earliest written myths in the Kojiki and the Nihonshoki as his starting point, and from there traces Japan's mythology through to post-war State Shinto, the rise of the manga industry in the 1960s, J-horror and modern-day myths. Reinventions and retellings of myth are present across all genres of contemporary Japanese culture, from its auteur cinema to renowned video games such as Okami. This book is for anyone interested in Japan, as knowing its myths allows readers to understand and appreciate its culture in a new light.
