The City Without Jews : Life and Death in Nazi Vienna
‘A truly major work, both deeply moving and incredibly powerful. A masterpiece of research, structure and writing . . . unforgettable’ - Sir Antony Beevor, bestselling author of Stalingrad'Painful, profound, prescient . . . a magisterial work' - Sonia Purnell, internationally bestselling author of Kingmaker and A Woman of No ImportanceIn 1938, Vienna was the second largest Jewish city in Europe, home to nearly 200,000 Jewish people.By 1946, only a few thousand had survived.In this heart-wrenching story of loss, fear, courage and hope, acclaimed historian Douglas Smith chronicles the Nazi destruction of Jewish Vienna. Drawing on hundreds of long-forgotten voices, from Jews to Nazis to Gentile collaborators and bystanders, The City Without Jews centres on one remarkable person: Mignon Langnas.Watching as nearly every Jew she knew was expropriated, forced to migrate, or deported to the killing fields and death camps in the East, Mignon vividly recorded her world in diaries and letters, creating an indispensably detailed and poignant account of life under Nazi rule. What emerges from the wreckage of a city bent on Jewish eradication is a story like no other – one of betrayal, sacrifice, impossible choices and survivor guilt.

Romantickú lásku dávame na piedestál, no možno je čas ju zhodiť. Čo ak sú vzťahy s našimi priateľmi, súrodencami či dokonca kolegami krajšie a prínosnejšie než tie s romantickým partnerom?
Práve tieto iné druhy lásky nám môžu v živote priniesť naplnenie, ktoré márne hľadáme. Láska (nie) je veda a všetci jej máme v živote obrovské množstvo, ak vieme, kde ju hľadať a ako sa o ňu starať.

•Prečo podvádzame a dá sa nevera niekedy odpustiť?
•Môžeme milovať našich rodičov, aj keď nám v detstve ublížili?
•...a množstvo ďalších!
Autor odpovedá na otázky jasne a priamo, bez prikrášľovania, ale s veľkou dávkou empatie.
Vďaka tejto knihe si dokážete vybudovať zdravé, šťastné a vášnivé vzťahy nielen v partnerstvách, ale aj v rodine, priateľstvách a v práci. Odhaľuje bežné mylné predstavy a falošné očakávania, ktoré nás rozdeľujú, a ponúka riešenia, ktoré obnovujú dôveru, intimitu a naplnenie.

Last Night I Dreamt
'As compelling as any du Maurier mystery - an extraordinary family saga wonderfully told' GYLES BRANDRETH'An unforgettable portrait of Daphne du Maurier' TATIANA DE ROSNAY, author of Manderley Forever
An intimate, revelatory family biography of the iconic writer Daphne du Maurier and her famous ancestors, by her eldest grandson
Born into a well-known artistic dynasty, Daphne du Maurier grew up in an atmosphere of carefree privilege - but at a time when women of her class were not expected to have a career. She however defied convention and moved to Cornwall to pursue her ambition to become a writer. There, over six decades, she dreamt up the stories that have sold tens of millions of copies worldwide and still haunt our cultural imagination, including Rebecca, Jamaica Inn and 'The Birds'.Last Night I Dreamt explores how the turbulence and contradictions of Daphne's own life - spanning war, complex family dynamics, a marriage to a renowned but damaged general, and unrequited love - inspired her writing.It also uncovers the powerful influence of her notable forebears, in particular her domineering father Gerald, the most famous actor-manager of his generation; her grandfather George, a renowned Victorian novelist and cartoonist; and the mistress to the Duke of York, Mary Anne Clarke, another woman who refused to obey the rules.
Paul de Zulueta, Daphne's grandson, has drawn on private family archives, new interviews and his own memories of his grandmother, a woman who was central to his early life. In doing so, he gives us an extraordinary look into the world of Daphne du Maurier with rare closeness and emotional candour, and a moving portrait of one of the great British artistic families of the 19th and 20th centuries.
