Fragment of a (Knight’s) Forest
Fragment (rytierskeho) lesa spája tri cykly, v ktorých Ivan Štrpka premieta stredoveké putovanie Percevala do súčasnej Európy vlakov, nástupíšť metra, letísk a zaniknutých kín. Básne sa pohybujú v opakujúcom sa slovníku zrkadiel, tieňov, prázdnych rúk a miznúcich postáv, pričom nadväzujú na myslenie Meistera Eckharta a Paula Celana a rozvíjajú mystiku negácie. Štrpkove verše, citlivo prenesené do angličtiny v preklade Johna Minahana, plynule prechádzajú medzi dlhými meditatívnymi pasážami a zhustenou lyrikou a zachytávajú detstvo, exil i nestálosť fotografického obrazu. Výsledkom je poetika neustáleho prechodu, v ktorej sa identita postupne stenčuje až k vlastnému miznutiu a les je zároveň priestorom rytierskej romance i krajinou vnútorného sveta.

Islam
A concise new narrative history of Islam that draws on the transformative insights of recent research to emphasize the diversity and dynamism of the traditionToday’s Muslim world is in upheaval: legalists and mystics engage in intense debates, radical groups invoke Sharia, Muslim immigrants in the West face prejudice and discrimination, and Muslim feminists advocate new interpretations of the Koran. At the same time, Islam is mischaracterized as unitary and unchanging by people ranging from right-wing Western politicians claiming that Islam is incompatible with democracy to conservative Muslims dreaming of returning to the golden age of the prophet. Against this contentious backdrop, this book provides an essential and timely new history of the religion in all its astonishing richness and diversity as it has been practiced by Muslims around the world, from seventh-century Mecca to today. Most popular histories of Islam continue to repeat conventional pietistic accounts. In contrast, John Tolan draws on decades of new historical research that has transformed knowledge of the origins and development of the Muslim faith. He shows how the youngest of the three great monotheisms arose in close contact with Jewish, Christian, and other religious traditions in a mixture of cultures, including Arab, Greek, Persian, and Turkish; how Islam spread across an enormous territory encompassing hundreds of languages and cultures; how Muslims have forged widely different beliefs and practices over fourteen centuries; and how Islamic history provides crucial context for understanding contemporary debates in the Muslim world. At a time when much talk about Islam is filled with misunderstanding, stereotypes, and bias, this book provides a fresh and lucid portrait of the continuous and ongoing transformations of a religion of tremendous variety and complexity.

A hamvak királya
Roman Carruthers maga mögött hagyta a kisvárosi életet családja krematóriumának füstjével és lángjaival együtt. Atlantában, pénzügyi tanácsadóként éli felszínes, luxusban tobzódó életét, ám egy nap húga, Neveah azzal hívja, hogy édesapjuk kómába esett egy cserbenhagyásos gázolás után. Hazatérve Roman rájön, hogy a baleset nem a véletlen műve. Az öccse, Dante veszélyes és könyörtelen bűnözőknek tartozik.
A pénzügyi zseni Roman, aki páratlanul bánik a számokkal és mesteri ügyességgel teszi gazdaggá az ügyfeleit, rendelkezik némi félretett pénzzel, amivel kisegíthetné öccsét a bajból. Csakhogy már elfelejtette, milyen az, amikor az ember valódi gengszterekkel találja szemben magát. Hamarosan ráébred, hogy csak egyetlen dolgot ajánlhat fel a testvére megmentéséért: önmagát és sajátos szaktudását.
Miközben a sorscsapások, a véletlenek és a szívfájdalom lángba borítja az életüket, a Carruthers családnak össze kell fognia a túlélésért, máskülönben a világukból csak por és hamu marad. Mert ahogy az apjuk már gyerekkorukban megtanította nekik, semmi sem tart örökké. Egyszer minden el fog égni.
S. A. Cosby új regénye ismét egy letehetetlen déli noir, melyet ezúttal A keresztapa ihletett.

Beginning Middle End
From the award-winning author of Lost Children Archive, Valeria Luiselli, comes a wondrous new novel about family, time and starting over.
All I had to do, or so I thought, was to answer a simple question: How do I reinvent it, the story, our lives?
A mother and a daughter take off on a road trip after the collapse of a marriage. Their journey begins in Sicily during a summer of rapidly-changing winds, volcanic rumbles and sudden tempests. How do you begin again, the mother wonders, if you got the beginning wrong? The trip soon becomes a quest for origins - not just through their family history, but also further back to a mythical and even geological past.
With her daughter leaving childhood behind and her mother beginning to show signs of dementia, the narrator finds herself at a crossroads. She must now ask herself: How do we situate ourselves deeply in the world while accepting our transience in it? How are a family's memories made and what happens when they disappear?
A road novel, a mother-daughter story, a radical portrait of starting over, in all its forms, Beginning Middle End offers an exhilarating testament to the power of the stories and the loves we hold most dear.
The Good Parts
She erased their past.
He's rewriting their future.
When Landon receives a letter from Rose - the woman he once planned forever with - he learns their love story is over. She's undergone a radical memory-erasing treatment, leaving behind her grief, her past . . . and him. But Landon can't bear to lose the love of his life. If she fell for him once, couldn't she fall for him again?
Now living in Edinburgh, Rose's world is a blank canvas, and she's dating someone new. When Landon re-enters her life as a stranger, they become friends, their lives entwining once more. But what Rose doesn't know is that this new friend carries the weight of everything they once shared: their firsts, their marriage, and the heartbreak they barely survived. And when she starts exhibiting strange symptoms, it becomes clear their history isn't gone - it's just buried. And remembering could come at a devastating cost.
Told in alternating timelines - his from the present, hers from the past - The Good Parts is an achingly poignant story about the people we become across a lifetime, and the quiet grace of learning to let go while holding on to what's worth keeping.
This is one love story you'll never forget.
Hra titánů: Výstup na nebesa

Just for the Plot - Bay Area Players 2
His sister's best friend is strictly off-limits. But sometimes breaking the rules makes the plot much more interesting . . .
Bennett Brinkman is San Francisco baseball's golden boy - focused, disciplined, and very bad at ignoring the one woman he shouldn't want. Falling for his sister's best friend was inevitable, even though she's known him since he was an awkward teenager . . . and still insists on seeing him that way.
Bower knows exactly why wanting Bennett is a terrible idea. She's fiercely loyal to her best friend, and falling for her brother could blow everything up. But when she moves into Bennett's apartment building, and ropes Bennett into their own personal smutty book club, things start to get . . . spicy.
This romance is strictly forbidden. They're both the last person the other should want. But Bennett has known what he wants from Bower for a long time - and it isn't friendship. And he has a plan to show his sister's best friend that the best ending to their story might be the one she's most afraid to try.
As undeniable chemistry turns into deep feelings, Bennett and Bower must decide if risking their family ties is worth chasing the love that's been in front of them all along.
Csomagfutár voltam Pekingben
„Az elmúlt két év minden egyes napját egy zárt, ablaktalan térbe szorulva töltöttem, a szemembe mosolygó, de a hátam mögött ármánykodó versenytársak gyűrűjében, a pletykák és rágalmak állandó kereszttüzében. […] Amikor végül kiszálltam a plázás üzletből, és kiléptem a szabad levegőre, furcsa módon irtóztam a fénytől. Túl sokáig voltam távol a naptól.”
Hú Ánján tizenkilenc különböző munkát végzett Kína különböző városai közt vándorolva: volt kisbolti eladó, kerékpár-kereskedő, éjszakai csomagszortírozó, futár és így tovább. Kötetében a saját történetét meséli el, a gig economy („haknigazdaság” vagy „platformgazdaság”) többnyire projektalapon dolgozó, alulfizetett munkavállalójának a történetét, amely világszerte több száz millió ember osztályrésze. Memoárjában ugyanakkor nemcsak egy rendkívül kiszolgáltatott életforma tárul a szemünk elé, hanem egy érzékeny, szabadságvágytól fűtött fiatalember portréja is.
Hú Ánján könyve Kínában nagy sikert aratott, és világszerte is bestsellerré vált, az eladott példányok száma 2025-ben már megközelítette a kétmilliót.

The Lansky Legacy
Written by Meyer Lansky’s grandson, this definitive portrait of the legendary “Mob’s Accountant” chronicles the singular life of the business entrepreneur who built a gambling empire, perfected money laundering, established a more efficient Mafia, and changed the course of organized crime forever—featuring never-before-seen personal letters, photographs, and firsthand stories.Meyer Lansky was more than a co-founder of the Mafia. He was a truly transformative figure, a key player who balanced criminal enterprise and legitimate business, ushering in a “Golden Age” of the Mafia that lasted half of the 20th century. His impact lives on today—in the lavish casinos of Las Vegas, the offshore banking strategies of major global industries, and the countless Hollywood films like The Godfather Part II and Bugsy, with Lansky portrayed by actors Lee Strasberg, Ben Kingsley, Harvey Keitel, and others. He remains a legend in the annals of American crime. But even now, after decades of fictionalized accounts, historical conjectures, and larger-than-life mythmaking, the question remains:Who was the real Meyer Lansky?In this eye-opening account—featuring personal letters, rare and exclusive photographs, and stunning new details never before revealed—the grandson of Meyer Lansky dares to answer the most intriguing questions that have fascinated the public to this day: Why and how did a serious Jewish boy from Poland get involved with mobsters like Lucky Luciano and Bugsy Siegel? What was his role in the growth and consolidation of the Mafia, and why couldn’t the Feds pin any crime on him besides illegal gambling? How many millions had Lansky amassed by the time of his death in 1983—and what happened to the money? But most shocking of all: Who really killed Bugsy Siegel, and can the truth finally be told?Packed with surprising insights from the grandson and his family, The Lansky Legacy is a must-read for crime buffs, Mafia enthusiasts, and anyone invested in the American Dream.
