Nový věk impéria: Jak rasismus a kolonialismus stále vládnou světu
Kehinde Andrews v této provokativní knize vyvrací mýtus o konci kolonialismu a odhaluje, jak jeho struktury nadále ovládají globální kapitalismus i moderní sociální systémy. Autor nabízí naléhavou analýzu současné geopolitiky a varuje, že bez hluboké transformace základů našeho světa zůstane skutečná dekolonizace nedosažitelným cílem.

People in Love
A GOOD HOUSEKEEPING MOST ANTICIPATED NOVEL OF 2026
One bright blue day, on a bench by the river, Nora's partner Robin proposes.
It is unexpected; they'd always agreed that they didn't need a wedding. But after a decade of in-jokes, dancing in the low-lit kitchen and sharing morning toast in bed, Nora says yes. Why wouldn't she?
The answer lands on the night of their engagement party, when Bren turns up on her doorstep.
Growing up, Bren and Nora were the sort of best friends who everyone swore would end up together. But when a sudden heartbreak turned their lives upside down, Bren left, Nora stayed, and the silent longing between them remained unspoken.
Now, he's back, and their tentative yet undeniable spark reignites, forcing Nora to ask herself:
How can you know your heart, if it feels like it's split in two?
Tender and compelling, People in Love is a story about what-ifs and maybes, and the moments of misunderstanding that can shape our lives. It's a book about living one life while musing on another, exploring how our choices shape our relationships and inform our regrets, and revealing, in the end, that the real love story is not always the one you'd expect.

Hosťovanie Jimiho Hendrixa vo Ľvove
„To najzaujímavejšie v živote je sám život," povedal v jednom rozhovore Andrej Kurkov. V románe Hosťovanie Jimiho Hendrixa vo Ľvove sa prelína realita s fikciou. Nad vnútrozemským mestom Ľvov lietajú čajky a občas tam vonia more. Bývalí hippies v sprievode bývalého kapitána KGB sa schádzajú na cintoríne pri hrobe, v ktorom je pochovaná dlaň ich veľkého vzoru, slávneho amerického rockového speváka a gitaristu Jimiho Hendrixa. V noci sa po starodávnych uliciach preháňa staré zahraničné auto a šofér Taras lieči ľudí, ktorých trápia obličkové kamene. Kniha plná humoru a nekonvenčných spoločenských aj ľúbostných zápletiek.
Čo ťa trápi
Autorka bestselleru denníka New York Times a držiteľka National Book Award za román Priateľ svojím osobitým hlasom rozpráva príbeh o zmysle života a smrti a o hodnote spolupatričnosti.
Rozprávačka opisuje sériu stretnutí s rôznymi ľuďmi v každodennom prúde života: s bývalým partnerom, na ktorého náhodne natrafí na verejnom podujatí; s majiteľkou bytu na Airbnb, ktorá nevie komunikovať so svojimi hosťami; s neznámym mužom hľadajúcim pomoc, pretože netuší, ako utešiť svoju starú matku; s priateľkou z mladosti, hospitalizovanou s nevyliečiteľnou rakovinou. Pri všetkých rozpoznáva spoločnú potrebu – túžbu hovoriť o sebe a mať poslucháča. Rozprávačka tieto hlasy väčšinou trpezlivo prijíma, až kým ju jedna z postáv nepožiada o niečo naozaj mimoriadne a veľmi osobné.
V románe Čo ťa trápi prináša Sigrid Nunez múdrosť, humor a prenikavým pohľadom skúma ľudské interakcie či podobu vzťahov v našej dobe. Prekvapivý príbeh o empatii a neobyčajných spôsoboch, akými si ľudia dokážu navzájom pomôcť v ťažkých chvíľach, ponúka dojímavý a podnetný portrét dnešného sveta.
Knihu v roku 2024 sfilmoval Pedro Almodóvar pod názvom Vedľajšia izba s Tildou Swinton a Julianne Moore v hlavných úlohách.

Choroba, ktorá nebola
Choroba, ktorá nebola je román o sile predstavivosti a detstva. O zostupe do temných vrstiev vlastného vnútra a o návrate k svetlému prameňu, ku ktorému sa – ak chceme – dokážeme vrátiť. Tak ako sa to darí holubom, ktoré vždy nájdu cestu späť.
Svet sa niekedy zdá rozdelený na tých, ktorí konajú a nenechajú sa vystrašiť, a na ľudí s tichou bolesťou ukrytou pod kožou. Pre Lorisa sa všetko začalo v detstve, v lete plnom čara, v záhrade starého otca. Práve tam sa jeho úzkosti rozplývali, tam sa učil stavať voliéry a chovať holuby.
Dnes má Loris tridsať rokov, čítanie sa stalo jeho povolaním, žije v meste a má priateľku Jo. Práca vo vydateľstve je však neistá, tlak dospelosti drvivý a úzkosť zlyhania ho postupne pohlcuje. Loris sa začína uzatvárať do seba: najprv z obrany, neskôr preto, aby načúval varovným signálom vlastného tela. Vnútri sa usídľuje neurčitá choroba, bez diagnózy, no schopná odniesť so sebou všetky zvyšky nádeje. Keď sa lekári, partnerka aj rodičia vzďaľujú, zostávajú mu už len dvaja spojenci: sociálne siete, ktoré živia jeho fantómy, a Katastrofa – premenlivá bytosť, raz mačka, raz vlčica, raz priateľka či nevesta, zvodná a posmešná sprievodkyňa jeho najťažších chvíľ.
Giulia Caminito sa vracia k sebe samej a k svojej generácii, ktorá nezažila vojny ani hmotný nedostatok, no zdedila samotu siete a neistotu. Jej presná, úsporná próza sa tu otvára prekvapivo snovej atmosfére. Hypochondria sa mení na nezabudnuteľnú protagonistku a medzi mestskými blokmi vyrastá temný les, v ktorom sa pohybujú naše najintímnejšie a najbolestnejšie skúsenosti.

Newham at Work
The London Borough of Newham was created in 1965 by the merger of the County Borough Councils of East Ham and West Ham. At first, industry was concentrated on the banks of the river Lea (or Lee). The coming of the railways coupled with the rise of new technologies in the Victorian era, and legislation prohibiting many of the smellier and noisier industries from operating within London led to the rapid growth of industry and population within Newham from the 1840s onwards. The area grew rich from industry, with famous names such as Tate & Lyle and Trebor Sweets, railway engineering at Stratford and the docks. Marshland south of Plaistow and East Ham was drained to create the docks and the industrial areas of Canning Town and Silvertown, the latter named after a local entrepreneur. Much of this industry fell into decline from the late twentieth century. When the docks closed in 1981 and relocated to Tilbury, the London Docklands Development Corporation was set up to regenerate the Docklands area with London City Airport and a new University of East London campus taking their place, and retail became the major employer in the area.Newham at Work explores the working life of this borough in London and its people and the industries that have characterised it through the years. The book will appeal to all those with an interest in the history of Newham.
Southdown Bristol REs
Southdown Motor Services, the acclaimed South Coast operator with their instantly recognisable green-and-cream livery, were loyal Leyland customers for many years. They took delivery of their first Bristol RE buses in early 1968, further deliveries in 1969 and 1971 and inherited thirteen following the take-over of Brighton Hove and District, bringing the fleet total to eighty-five.The first batch of Bristol REs were forty-five-seaters with Marshall bodywork delivered between April and July in 1968. The second batch, seating forty-nine, also had Marshall bodies and were delivered from April 1969 onward. These buses were fitted with Gardner engines at the rear and Southdown specified manual gear boxes in both batches. Unpopular with some drivers and on some routes, they were nevertheless part of the history of the company. Nine Marshall-bodied examples were added to the fleet in 1971. These were semi-automatic, with Leyland supplying the engine, and were powerful and easier to drive than their earlier counterparts. Three more arrived that year featuring more conventional Eastern Coach Works bodies. Those acquired from Brighton Hove and District had Gardner engines, semi-automatic gearboxes and twin-door Eastern Coach Works bodies.Simon Stanford details Southdown’s Bristol REs with previously unpublished images and detailed captions. Three buses survive, regularly attending shows and rallies in the South East, and are also pictured here.
Anne Boleyn's First Love
In the Tudor court, love blossomed when Henry Percy met Anne Boleyn. However, their romance was abruptly torn apart by Cardinal Wolsey, who chastised Percy, an earl’s son, for choosing to marry the daughter of a mere knight. Despite a spirited defence, Percy was ordered to no longer see her. Percy was forced into marrying Mary Talbot, daughter of the fourth Earl of Shrewsbury. The loveless match proved acrimonious and bitter, culminating in Mary accusing her husband of trying to poison her. After a quarrel in which Percy, now sixth Earl of Northumberland, mentioned his betrothal to Anne Boleyn, Mary wrote to her father to warn King Henry VIII that her husband and Anne had been precontracted, hoping to stop the king marrying her. But there was more to Henry Percy than being Anne’s first love. Though often ill, he executed all the rough and arduous duties of Scottish border warfare, proving to be a strong and effective Warden of the North. His was a full life, though not a particularly happy one. In June 1537, aged thirty-five and old before his time, he died poor and ostensibly alone. He was buried on the same day he died, the crown denying him even the usual aristocratic funeral. In the first full-length biography of this fascinating man, Jan-Marie Knights tells a story of love, duty and loss.
The Latecomer's Rise
In The Latecomer's Rise, Muyang Chen reveals the nature and impact of a rapidly growing form of international lending: Chinese development finance. Over the past few decades, China has become the world's largest provider of bilateral development finance. Through its two national policy banks, the China Development Bank (CDB) and the Export-Import Bank of China (China Exim), it has funded infrastructure and industrial projects in numerous emerging markets and developing countries. Yet this very surge and magnitude of capital has raised questions about the characteristics of Chinese bilateral lending and its repercussions on the international order. Drawing on a variety of novel Chinese primary sources, including interviews and official bank documents, Chen pinpoints the distinctiveness of Chinese bilateral development finance, explains its origins, and analyzes its effects. She compares Chinese policy banks with their foreign counterparts to show that the CDB and China Exim, while state-supported, are in fact also market-oriented - they are as much government organs as they are profit-driven financial agencies that serve both state and firms' interests. This approach, which emerged out of China's particular economic history, suggests that Chinese overseas lending is not merely a tool of economic statecraft that challenges Western-led economic regimes. Instead, China's responses to extant rules, norms, and practices across given issue areas have varied between contestation and convergence. Rich with empirical detail and penetrating insights, The Latecomer's Rise demystifies the little-known workings of Chinese development finance to revise our conceptions of China's role in the international financial system.

Settling Debt
Settling Debt overturns the familiar tale of early antislavery as a pure moral triumph by revealing its uneasy ties to colonial ambition and economic anxiety. Cameron Seglias shows how, from the late seventeenth century through the American Revolution, settlers and religious writers condemned slavery as a threat to their own prosperity and salvation. Debt, understood both as money owed and moral obligation, anchored their vision of freedom and shaped how they justified seizing Indigenous lands while denouncing racial bondage. Drawing from neglected books, pamphlets, poems, and dramatic protests, like the radical acts of Benjamin Lay, Seglias weaves literary close readings with sharp historical insights to expose how freedom and dispossession were two sides of the same coin. At once readable and provocative, Settling Debt compels us to see how the language of moral debt masked the building of a colonial order rooted in inequality. In revisiting this past, Seglias offers a timely reminder: The debts of America's founding have yet to be settled.
Marvels: The Novelization
For the first time, a novelization of Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross' bestselling and now classic miniseries from 1994-Marvels, offering an thrilling all-new interpretation of one of the most famous stories in Marvel Comics history.
Welcome to New York. Here, burning figures roam the streets, men in brightly colored costumes scale the glass and concrete walls, creatures from space threaten to devour our world . . . and everyone else is going about their lives.
This is the Marvel Universe, where the ordinary and fantastic interact daily. This is the world of Marvels-one of the most important and bestselling stories in Marvel Comics history, which Stan Lee described in his introduction to the first collected edition as "innovative, brilliantly conceived, and skillfully executed."
Over 30 years later, Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross' groundbreaking comic book series Marvels gets a long-awaited novelization by Steve Darnall, author of Uncle Sam and Ross's writing partner on the original proposal.
Marvels was a landmark series when it was first published-peeling back the curtain on Marvel's history. It's a story told from the perspective of an everyman character-news photographer Phil Sheldon-who chronicles a world full of costumed superhumans, providing an on-the-ground view of events in the Marvel Universe as they unfold. Darnall's prose perfectly captures the magic of Busiek and Ross' original story, offering insights and background previously untold in the comic book.
Tying the story together in a stunning package is an all-new painted cover, four all-new color illustrations, and four all-new black-and-white illustrations by Alex Ross, as well as an all-new afterword by Ross.
Pioneer Summer - The Pioneer Series 1
This star-crossed gay romance is a #1 bestselling TikTok sensation that took readers by storm, made international news, and catalyzed one of Russia's largest-ever crackdowns on LGBTQ representation.
Cowritten by a Ukrainian-Russian duo, Pioneer Summer reached such heights of popularity that Putin stepped in to ban it. Now this swoony romance will transport American readers to another place and time and introduce them to one of the most memorable relationships of their lives.
The year is 1986, and Yurka Konev, 16, has been sent off for another summer at Pioneer Camp. Impulsive, forthright, and unfairly branded as a troublemaker, he anticipates the weeks ahead of him with boredom and dread.
But when he's pushed into working on the camp's theater production, he meets serious, thoughtful troop leader Volodya. Yurka finds himself drawn to the slightly older boy, and, surprisingly, Volodya seems to like him, too. The two boys grow closer and closer, and though both fear the consequences of their illegal attraction, its gravity pulls them together.
Now, 20 years later, Yury returns to the abandoned camp to reminisce on the relationship that changed his life forever-and discovers that not all history is destined to remain in the past.
