Ash
'Louise Wallace writes the excruciating and transformative with such precision it’s almost impossible to believe. This is a razor-sharp novel: claustrophobic and expansive at once, full of terror and dark humor.' Lottie Hazell, author of Piglet'Bruising, beautiful and uncompromising in the way that it explores anger, anxiety, motherhood and womanhood.' Daisy Buchanan, author of Careering'As poetic as it is experimental . . . this is a novel you'll consume in one sitting.' Katie Yee, author of Maggie; or A Man and a Woman Walk Into a BarThea lives under a mountain – one that's ready to blow. A vet at a mid-sized rural practice, she has been called back during maternity leave and is coping – just – with the juggle of meetings, mealtimes, farm visits, her boss's search for legal loopholes and the constant care of her much-loved children, Eli and Lucy. But something is shifting in Thea – something is burning. Or is it that she is becoming aware, for the first time, of the bright, hot core at her centr? n urgent rallying cry to women everywhere, ASH is a story about reckoning with one's rage and finding marvels in the midst of chaos.
Toulky Gruzií
Gruzie je malá, ale nesmírně přitažlivá země. Skoro každý, kdo ji jen trochu pozná, si ji zamiluje. Stalo se to i autorce knihy Ivaně Bursíkové, která zemi projela a prošla skrz naskrz. Vydejte se společně s ní na cesty mezi nebem a zemí – do gruzínských hor, kde je voda křišťálově čistá, skály černé a lesy hluboké. Vyrazte pěšky, nebo na koňském hřbetu. Projděte si tajemná zákoutí starobylého Tbilisi, města, které nikdy nespí. Pojeďte do Gruzie!
A rangidős bölcsessége
William McRaven négycsillagos tengernagy, az Egyesült Államok Haditengerészetének nyugállományú tagja közel négy évtizedes katonai pályát tudhat maga mögött. Utolsó aktív éveiben ő volt a Bullfrog, vagyis az Ökörbéka, azaz a leghosszabb ideje aktív szolgálatban lévő, rangidős SEAL.
A vezetés szinte minden elképzelhető kihívásával szembesült: harci műveleteket irányított – többek között Szaddám Huszein elfogását, Phillips kapitány kiszabadítását, valamint az Oszáma bin Láden elleni rajtaütést. Ebben az inspiráló kötetben rendkívüli életútja és más elismert vezetők tapasztalatai alapján válsághelyzetekről, vezetői és etikai dilemmákról, valamint átfogó szervezeti átalakításokról szóló történeteken keresztül megismerhetjük a csúcsteljesítményre képes vezető jellemzőit.
Budem stáť pred Pánom
Náš život nie je cesta nikam. Náš život má cieľ. K tejto pravde nás má viesť i niekoľko úvah knižky, ktorej cieľom je upriamiť nás na život vo večnosti. Preto prosme:
Dobrý Bože, raz budem stáť pred tebou. Daj, aby sa mi myšlienka na to stávala svetlom, ktoré mi svieti; pravdou, ktorá ma oslobodzuje; múdrosťou, ktorou budem žiť; radosťou, ktorú mi nik nebude môcť vziať; láskou, ktorá nezaniká; cieľom, ktorý dosiahnem; pokojom, ktorý vo mne zavládne; silou, ktorá ma očistí; milosťou, ktorá ma navždy zjednotí s tebou a zachráni pre večný život lásky.

Frankenstein
Frankenstein neboli moderní Prométheus (Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus), obecně známý jen jako Frankenstein, je hororový román Mary Shelley, poprvé vydaný v roce 1818. Vypráví příběh mladého vědce Viktora Frankensteina, který stvoří umělého člověka, monstrum ohyzdné podoby s nadlidskou silou. Román byl mnohokrát zfilmován a patří mezi klasická díla hororového žánru. V současné popkultuře se slovem „Frankenstein“ zjednodušeně označuje samo monstrum, případně nevzhledný člověk či nestvůra. Román v sobě propojuje prvky gotického románu a romantického románu (např. utrpení, plynoucí z osamělosti hlavních hrdinů i netvora). Román si klade otázku, jak moc je „stvořitel“ zodpovědný za „stvořené“, a do jisté míry je i varováním před důsledky vědeckých experimentů a sobeckým zaměřením moderního člověka v době průmyslové revoluce, jež je v románu stavěno do kontrastu vůči altruistickým a ušlechtilým činům často obyčejných lidí. Příběh ovlivnil literaturu i popkulturu napříč žánry a inicioval vznik mnoha hororových příběhů a filmů.

Proti proudu
Všichni máme sklon obcházet problémy. A jsme v tom zdatní. Natolik jsme si zvykli řešit krizové situace, že nás ani nenapadne zamyslet se nad tím, jak bychom jim v první řadě mohli předcházet. Policie vyšetřuje zločiny, léčíme chronická onemocnění a lidem bez domova poskytujeme možnost pobytu v útulcích. Všichni bychom však raději žili ve světě, kde by ke zločinům nedocházelo, kde by nebujely nemoci a lidé nepřicházeli o své domovy. Proč tedy věnujeme tolik úsilí řešení problémů místo toho, abychom se zaměřili na prevenci? V profesním i osobním životě musíme předcházet problémům neustále, a některé z těch nejožehavějších dokážeme vyřešit – pokud tedy začneme uvažovat o systému jako celku, a ne o jednotlivých příznacích. Když začneme uvažovat proti proudu. Kniha Proti proudu čerpá z rozsáhlého výzkumu Dan Heatha a také ze stovek rozhovorů s lidmi, kteří dovedou nacházet nekonvenční řešení problémů a místo aby na ně pouze reagovali, tak jim raději předcházejí.

Glorious Dead
Laurie Blount, the ''enfant terrible'' of the West End, the voice of a generation, a shining star. Also: dead. Very, very dead. Reeling at being left behind, his husband Jo, best friend Vivi, and goddaughter Rosy must step out from the shadows and begin a new life, at their own pace. But scattered chapters of Laurie''s unpublished memoirs ensure that while he may be dead, he''ll never leave them. Waspish, wicked, and witty, they reveal a side to Laurie nobody really knew - or would admit to knowing. But who''s already had their eyes on them, and is it all really true? Who should his grieving loved ones believe to be the real Laurie - the lovable, arch comedian they knew, or the adulterous, somewhat tragic figure who comes alive on the page?Jo is about to discover he has more in common with his dear departed husband than he ever imagined, and that comedy and tragedy are just the same mistakes, made under different lighting. Those we adore let us down, halos can dim, and pedestals are there to be toppled. If Jo is ever to find peace in the future, he must confront Laurie''s past.PRAISE FOR JUSTIN MYERS''Funny, kind, insightful book, about those who get left behind'' Russell T Davies''The Fake-Up is everything I want from a rom com.

Hallucinations
Have you ever seen something that wasn’t really there? Heard someone call your name in an empty house? Sensed someone following you and turned around to find nothing?Hallucinations don’t belong wholly to the insane. Much more commonly, they are linked to sensory deprivation, intoxication, illness, or injury. In some conditions, hallucinations can lead to religious epiphanies or even the feeling of leaving one’s own body. Humans have always sought such life-changing visions, and for thousands of years have used hallucinogenic compounds to achieve them.In Hallucinations, with his usual elegance, curiosity, and compassion, Dr Oliver Sacks weaves together stories of his patients and of his own mind-altering experiences to illuminate what hallucinations tell us about the organization and structure of our brains, how they have influenced every culture’s folklore and art, and why the potential for hallucination is present in us all, a vital part of the human condition.Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.
River of Consciousness
Two weeks before his death, Oliver Sacks outlined the contents of The River of Consciousness, the last book he would oversee.The bestselling author of On the Move, Musicophilia, and The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, Sacks is known for his illuminating case histories about people living with neurological conditions at the far borderlands of human experience. But his grasp of science was not restricted to neuroscience or medicine; he was fascinated by the issues, ideas, and questions of all the sciences. That wide-ranging expertise and passion inform the perspective of this book, in which he interrogates the nature not only of human experience but of all life.In The River of Consciousness, Dr Sacks takes on evolution, botany, chemistry, medicine, neuroscience, and the arts, and calls upon his great scientific and creative heroes – above all, Darwin, Freud, and William James. For Sacks, these thinkers were constant companions from an early age; the questions they explored – the meaning of evolution, the roots of creativity, and the nature of consciousness – lie at the heart of science and of this book.The River of Consciousness demonstrates Sacks’s unparalleled ability to make unexpected connections, his sheer joy in knowledge, and his unceasing, timeless endeavour to understand what makes us human.Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

<p><b>'Exquisitely written and utterly compelling' SUSAN BARKER</b><br><br><b>'The soul of a stylish mystery and the pace of an old-fashioned thriller' MOHAMMED HANIF</b><br><br><b>'Elegant, edgy and cinematic' EMMA CLAIRE SWEENEY</b><br><br>Anna has never met anyone like the enigmatic Loll: a British hostess at the Moonglow bar, in the Japanese city of Osaka. While Anna teaches bored students by day, Loll passes the nights in smoky, dim-lit rooms where she pours men's drinks, lights their cigarettes and laughs playfully at their jokes.<br><br>With her blonde wigs, shimmering dresses and bejewelled nails, Loll cuts a mesmerising figure. But her skin bears unexplained bruises beneath its glittering facade, and Anna's concern slowly begins to grow. She is troubled by the secret of the carved jade stone necklace that her glamorous new friend seems determined to protect; the mysterious identity of Loll's best client with shadowy links to the city's underworld crime bosses; and the sight Anna witnesses one afternoon: Loll teetering alone on the edge of a railway track, caught in the deafening rush as a train hurtles by.<br><br>Unlike Anna who has come to Osaka to learn more about her half-Japanese heritage, Loll seems to have no clear reason for being there and no easily discernible past. And so when she suddenly disappears, there are only the barest of clues as to where she might have gone. But, desperate to find her friend, Anna refuses to give up. Soon she is thrown onto a trail that will take her into the darkest corners of the neon-choked metropolis - hidden, forbidden places from which those who know the city best warn her to stay away.</p>
