Ask for It
Ask For It - a classic erotic romance, part of the Georgian series - by Sylvia Day is a daring, lusty tale of a young woman's resistance and surrender to a man she jilted. England, 1770. As an agent to the Crown, Marcus Ashford has fought numerous sword fights and dodged bullets and cannon fire. Yet nothing arouses him more than his hunger for former fiance, Elizabeth. Years ago, she'd abandoned him for the boyishly charming Lord Hawthorne. But now Marcus has been ordered to defend Elizabeth from her husband's killers and he has sworn to do so while tending to her other, more carnal needs. He will be at her service, in every sense. Praise for Sylvia Day, bestselling author of the sensational Bared to You and Reflected in You, first two books in the Crossfire trilogy : "Move over Danielle Steel and Jackie Collins, this is the dawn of a new Day". (Amuse). "Several shades darker and a hundred degrees hotter than anything you've read before". (Reveal). Sylvia Day is the number one New York Times and number one international bestselling author of more than a dozen award-winning novels, which have been translated into thirty eight languages. She has been nominated for the Goodreads Choice Award for Best Author and her work has been honoured as Amazon's Best of the Year in Romance. She has won the RT Book Reviews Reviewers' Choice Award and been nominated for the Romance Writers of America's prestigious RITA award twice.
Great Gatsby
A beautiful new edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel The Great Gatsby to coincide with the release of Baz Luhrmann's film. 'There was music from my neighbour's house through the summer nights. In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars.' Everybody who is anybody is seen at the glittering parties held in millionaire Jay Gatsby's mansion in West Egg, east of New York. The riotous throng congregates in his sumptuous garden, coolly debating Gatsby's origins and mysterious past. None of the frivolous socialites understands him and among various rumours is the conviction that 'he killed a man'. A detached onlooker, Gatsby is oblivious to the speculation he creates, but always seems to be watching and waiting, though no one knows what for. As writer Nick Carraway is drawn into this decadent orbit, Gatsby's destructive dreams and passions are revealed, leading to disturbing and tragic consequences. "Not only a page turner and heartbreaker, it's one of the most quintessentially American novels ever written". (Time). F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in St Paul, Minnesota in 1896. He studied at Princeton University before joining the army in 1917. In 1920 he married Zelda Sayre. Their traumatic relationship and subsequent breakdowns became a major influence on his writing. Among his publications were five novels, This Side of Paradise, The Great Gatsby, The Beautiful and the Damned, Tender is the Night and The Last Tycoon (his last and unfinished work); six volumes of short stories and The Crack-Up, a selection of autobiographical pieces. F. Scott Fitzgerald died suddenly in 1940.
Inferno
Discover Dante's original Inferno in this modern and acclaimed Penguin translation. Describing Dante's descent into Hell with Virgil as a guide, Inferno depicts a cruel underworld in which desperate figures are condemned to eternal damnation for committing one or more of seven deadly sins. As he descends through nine concentric circles of increasingly agonising torture, Dante encounters many doomed souls before he is finally ready to meet the ultimate evil in the heart of Hell: Satan himself. This new edition of Inferno includes explanatory notes and illustrations showing the different layers of hell. Robin Kirkpatrick's masterful translation is also available in a bilingual Penguin edition, with the original Italian on facing pages, and in a complete edition of The Divine Comedy with an introduction and other editorial materials. Dante Alighieri was born in 1265. He studied at the university of Bologna, married at the age of twenty and had four children. His first major work was La Vita Nuova (1292), a tribute to Beatrice Portinari, the great love of his life who had died two years earlier. In 1302, Dante's political activism resulted in his being exiled from Florence. After years of wandering, he settled in Ravenna and in about 1307 began writing The Divine Comedy. Dante died in 1321.

Der Drama der deutschen Literatur, das zahlreiche Künstler zu eigenen Werken inspirierte. Übungen zu Leseverständnis, Wortschatz und Grammatik; Übungen zur Prüfungsvorbereitung Zertifikat Deutsch – ZD Themen: Gesellschaft, Liebe, Leiden Georg Büchners Drama Woyzeck gehört zu den meistgespielten Bühnenstücken der deutschen Literatur.

Chemickal Marriage
If HBO are looking for a project to follow Game of Thrones, they need seek no further ...an epic". (Scotsman). The adventure continues in G.W. Dahlquist's The Chemickal Marriage, the follow up to the popular The Glass Book of Dream Eaters and The Dark Volume. Miss Temple, young, wealthy and far away from home, never wanted to be a heroine. Yet her fiance is dead (admittedly, by her own hand), her companions slain and her nemesis, the terrifyingly wicked Contessa Lacquer-Sforza, escaped. It falls on her tiny shoulders to destroy a deadly cabal whose alchemy threatens to enslave the world. Miss Temple plots her revenge. But Dr Svenson and Cardinal Chang are alive, barely - their bodies corrupted by the poisonous blue glass. Wounded and outnumbered, Miss Temple, Dr Svenson and Cardinal Chang pursue their enemies through city slums and glittering palaces as they fight to prevent the cabal's crushing dominion and unholy marriage between man and machine. Dahlquist's rip-roaring adventure sees an assassin, an heiress and a surgeon battle against the world's most unholy evil, in their final quest. "If HBO are looking for a project to follow Game of Thrones, they need seek no further ...an epic which . ..will only grow in popularity over the years [thanks to] its virtues, hi-jinks, horror, decadence and derring-do". (Stuart Kelly, Scotsman). "Fantastic. Somewhere between Dickens, Sherlock Holmes and Rider Haggard. I was in seventh heaven". (Kate Mosse, author of Labyrinth on The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters). G. W. Dahlquist is a novelist and playwright. When he fell asleep during a snowstorm, his first book The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters came to him in a dream. This is his third novel. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, he now lives in New York.
Midnight in Austenland
Charlotte Kinder is in need of true escape when she heads from Ohio to Pembrook Park, a Jane Austen-themed retreat in the British countryside. But as it turns out, this vacation is no time to relax. Hearts are racing and stomachs fluttering in a tangle of intrigues - real and pretend, sinister and romantic - increasingly tough to sort out. It's midnight in Austenland, and Charlotte is about to prove herself a heroine worthy of Austen herself.
Austenland
Jane is a young New York woman who can never seem to find the right man-perhaps because of her secret obsession with Mr. Darcy, as played by Colin Firth in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. When a wealthy relative bequeaths her a trip to an English resort catering to Austen-obsessed women, however, Jane's fantasies of meeting the perfect Regency-era gentleman suddenly become more real than she ever could have imagined. Is this total immersion in a fake Austenland enough to make Jane kick the Austen obsession for good, or could all her dreams actually culminate in a Mr. Darcy of her own? In this addictive, charming and compassionate story, Shannon Hale brings out the Jane Austen obsessive in all of us.

Lacná kniha A biztonságos otthon (-10%)
"Szeretne biztonságban élni? Erre a kérdésre mindenki gondolkodás nélkül igent mondana.
Annak ellenére, hogy szeretnénk biztonságosan lakni, mégsem magától értetődő, hogy már a lakás vagy ház megvásárlásánál a biztonságra gondolnánk. Valószínűleg nem mindenkinek van pontos fogalma a lakásbiztonságról és arról, hogy mi mindent kellene tenni érte.
Gondossággal, odafigyeléssel sok veszélyforrás teljesen kizárható vagy a károk mérsékelhetők. Ehhez szeretnénk ezzel a kiadvánnyal hozzájárulni.

A lélek árnyai
Jung szerint az árnyék maga a tudattalan. Az a lény, akivel a legkevésbé szívesen azonosítjuk magunkat, ám akit mégis vállalnunk kell ahhoz, hogy elérjük a hőn áhított teljességet. Éppen ezért az árnyékot, illetve "sötét oldalunkat" rendkívül felemásan éljük meg: egyszerre taszít és vonz minden. Mindez külvilágunkban is megjelenik: hiszen ami másokban különösen zavar vagy vonzó - bármilyen furcsán hangzik is -, szintén saját rejtett lelki tartalmainkra, elfojtott lélekrészeinkre vagy kiéletlen vágyainkra utal. Ám ahhoz, hogy teljes ember váljunk, el kell fogadnunk és magunkévá kell tennünk árnyoldalunkat.
Ez a mű éppen ezért nem a szokásos értelemben vett olvasmány, hanem inkább az árnyak birodalmában tett, gyakorlatokkal tarkított utazás. Az árnyékkal végzett munka a tudatosulást szolgálja, tehát a szó szoros értelmében fényterápia. Aki elvégzi az itt bemutatott árnyékterápiát, az nyitottá, barátságosabbá és türelmesebbé válik - önmagával és másokkal szemben egyaránt. A könyv elevenbe vágó magyarázatai sokszor kellemetlenül érintik az olvasót, de mindennél világosabban megmutatják, hogyan békülhetünk ki személyiségünk árnyoldalával.

Pride and Prejudice
HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.' Austen's best-loved tale of love, marriage and society in class-conscious Georgian England still delights modern readers today with its comedy and characters. It follows the feisty, quick-witted Elizabeth Bennet as her parents seek to ensure good marriages for her and her sisters in order to secure their future. The protagonists Darcy and Elizabeth learn much about themselves and those around them and Austen's expertly crafted comedy characters of Mrs Bennet and Mr Collins demonstrate her great artistry as a writer.
