Cereal Savages
Dive spoon-first into a big bowl of ’80s nostalgia with lead Garbage Pail Kids artist Joe Simko and DC/Marvel and television writer Hans Rodionoff (Voltron, The Muppets Mayhem). With a laugh-out-loud foreword by Adam F. Goldberg, creator of TV’s The Goldbergs, this first-in-series graphic novel serves up MAD-magazine energy, pop-culture mayhem, and cartoon craziness—wrapped in one sugary, collectible package. Meet the CEREAL SAVAGES: four disgraced cereal mascots from the 1980s now struggling to survive in the modern world. With help from their middle-aged superfan Mike, they’ll confront old demons, repair broken friendships, and battle an oozy, apocalyptic milk monster threatening the globe. It’s heartfelt. It’s ridiculous. It’s crunchy chaos at its finest. This LIMITED EDITION HARDCOVER is a treat all on its own, featuring shimmering blue foil-gilded page edges, a pink ribbon marker, and enough retro flavor to teleport you straight back to Saturday-morning cartoons. Even R.L. Stine (Goosebumps) couldn’t resist: “Are they superheroes—or just flakes? This hilarious book kept me choking with laughter till long after breakfast!”
Goering's Suicide
Ever since Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering, Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe and deputy Führer, crunched a cyanide capsule between his teeth and died the night before his execution for war crimes, speculation about his death has never ended. The question of how Goering obtained the poison led to an official investigation, several reviews, intense debates, many books and articles, and several dramatizations and documentaries. Yet none have been able to provide a compelling and convincing explanation. The answer to this riddle was in fact unfathomable without the knowledge of key pieces of information contained within statements made by two military personnel who, late in their lives, revealed that they had been present during that history-defining moment of 1945. Combined with all the documentation previously obtained by investigators, and recently published records, the actual sequence of events of that fateful day can at last be understood. Just six US and British officers knew what took place on the day Goering received the cyanide capsule that allowed him to escape being hanged by his enemies and, in the eyes of his legions of followers, die a martyr – the very end the Allies were so desperate to avoid. Of those six Allied officers, four died taking their secrets with them. The revelations of the remaining two only came to light during casual meetings. The disclosures made by the first of the two former wartime officers, during an interview he gave in 2003, are as astounding as they are unequivocal – yet it seems they have never been fully scrutinised until now. Goering’s Suicide: ‘They Will Not Hang Me!’ chronicles events that occurred in Nuremberg during the crucial eight-week period in the autumn of 1945 that immediately preceded the start of the International Military Tribunal in which twenty-four leaders of Nazi Germany who had planned, carried out, or otherwise participated in the Holocaust and other war crimes, were tried. The author, Paul Hooley, believed the information received about Goering’s suicide was too important for it not to be shared with the world. Now, the truth has been revealed.
Exile
Discover a thrilling true story of treachery, deceit, hope and despair. From the moment Mary, Queen of Scots set foot on English soil in 1568 until her execution at Fotheringhay Castle on 8 February 1587, she was the prisoner of her cousin, Elizabeth I. Unlike Mary’s time on the Scottish throne, the dramatic events of these years – almost half her life – took place while she was a captive. But while trouble was perpetually simmering beyond her prison walls, within them Mary was constantly plotting. Only towards the end did she lose faith in returning to her homeland as rightful ruler. This is the story of Mary’s tumultuous later years, told through the many atmospheric locations where she was confined. Drawing on the latest research, including a treasure trove of recently decoded letters, Exile sheds fascinating new light on her captivity and the charged political climate of the period. Reading like a 16th-century thriller, this account of treachery, deceit, hope and despair is a penetrating and enthralling psychological portrait of one of history’s endlessly fascinating queens.

Tajuplné príbehy spod Nízkych Tatier
Hole, Alpes, Nižné Tatry... To je len časť pomenovaní pre pohorie, ktoré dnes poznáme ako Nízke Tatry. Ale vôbec nie sú nízke, veď ich najvyšší vrch, legendárny Ďumbier, sa týči do nadmorskej výšky 2 046 m. Tiahnu sa v dĺžke takmer sto kilometrov stredom Slovenska, oddeľujú údolia Váhu a Hrona. Sú súčasťou Karpát a majú všetko, čo k takému poriadnemu karpatskému horstvu patrí.
Divoké, hlboké hory odpradávna vyvolávali strach, obavy či nedôveru ľudí, ktorí sa usadili pod nimi. Na vrchy a do ich ľadovcových kotlov umiestňovali nadprirodzené bytosti. Postupne však začali horstvo osídľovať a využívať čoraz viac. Zažívali pritom množstvo dobrodružstiev. Pretože nemali výdobytky modernej civilizácie, svoje príhody, príbehy, fantazijné predstavy, ku ktorým hory prirodzene podnecovali, si po večeroch rozprávali či spievali, pretavili ich do množstva krásnych, úprimných výtvorov ľudovej slovesnosti.
Odkázali nám obrovské množstvo príbehov, smutných i veselých. Takých, aké ponúkol život v horách aj pod nimi. Nachádzame v nich nielen mnoho krásnych miest z pohoria i podhoria, príhod a udalostí, ale aj ľudí, od anonymných obyvateľov podhorských dedín až po historické postavy, akými boli Juro Jánošík, Jakub Surovec či náš najpopulárnejší kráľ Matej Korvín.
Keďže dosiaľ nevyšla samostatná kniha povestí z Nízkych Tatier, pokúsil som sa z tej hlbokej studnice príbehov, ktoré starostlivo uchovávali a ďalej šírili generácie našich predkov, vybrať aspoň zopár. Azda vás budú inšpirovať k tomu, aby ste navštívili Nízke Tatry, možno podnietia vašu fantáziu a predstavivosť, keď nimi budete putovať a spoznávať miesta, na ktorých sa tie príbehy odohrávali.
The Wallet and Other Thefts
Winner of the BOMB Fiction Prize and White Review Short Story Prize, Kristen Gleason's debut is a collection of precise, surreal, and lightly linked short fiction, concerned with theft, shame, exile, masochism, and God, reminiscent of Anna Kavan, Jane Bowles, and Marie NDiaye. Closely observed and slyly destabilizing, The Wallet and Other Thefts is a book of short fiction shimmering with mystery and menace. This surreal, precise collection unfolds in a world beyond conventional time and space. Concerned with theft, shame, exile, tourism, masochism, God, and "Nature," these stories are lightly linked—objects, diseases, and landscapes reappear. Gleason's elliptical prose refuses traditional narrative logic, resisting easy resolution. Reminiscent of the work of Anna Kavan, Jane Bowles, and Marie NDiaye, The Wallet and Other Thefts is a work of slipstream fiction that pulses with a sense of something generously withheld.
Declaration/Emancipation Illustrated
R.Sikoryak revisits the Declaration of Independence on 250th anniversary of its signing. R. Sikoryak, the cartoonist who cemented his reputation as the king of the visual mash-up with Masterpiece Comics and The Unquotable Trump, sets his sights on the document that explained to the world why America s thirteen colonies were to be sovereign states. A prequel of sorts to his Constitution Illustrated, Sikoryak presents the unabridged text of the Declaration, rendered in the bright, bold, and iconic styles of over 60 different American comics, cartoons, and graphic novels from over a century. The severing of colonial ties to Great Britain has never been more vividly manifested than in the skillful hands of Sikoryak, who doesn't hesitate to dream up Jeffy from Family Circus as Thomas Jefferson and Elmer Fudd as a British Redcoat. King George III is deliciously portrayed as pop culture s most famous villains, such as Thanos, The Joker, Scar from The Lion King, and many more. Sikoryak also skillfully adopts the styles of such comic artists as Will Eisner of The Spirit, Allie Brosh of Solutions and Other Problems, Morrie Turner of Wee Pals, Mark Beyer of Amy and Jordan, and Floyd Gottfredson of Mickey Mouse. Declaration Illustrated is an entertaining multilayered history lesson for buffs of the American Revolution and American comics.
Hesed, the Seed of the Biblical Story
The Hebrew word hesed is often translated as love, faithfulness, loyalty, or steadfastness of God, but it means so much more. Could hesed be the seed from which the diverse biblical story grows and expand? raditionally, Old Testament theology has focused on key themes or a "center" around which to organize the Old Testament. These approaches may help unify the Old Testament, but they also ignore important material and simplify the Old Testament's complexity and diversity. As an alternative to a gravitational center that reduces, Jennifer M. Matheny's argument emphasizes possibilities as she posits that hesed is the relational seed from which the complex and diverse biblical story grows. In her accessibly written analysis, Matheny engages theologically with the Torah, Prophets, and Writings to trace hesed's relational impact through the Old Testament. Through stories, poems, and songs of broken covenants, war, and exile, Matheny also shows how violence and injustice reign when humanity fails to be keepers and doers of Yhwh's hesed, while justice and hope prevail when humanity chooses courageous acts of hesed. This fresh, introductory-level approach emphasizes the importance of story, complexity, and diversity--and how we do hesed to others and back to Yhwh.
4 Janes
Through time, space, and the transcendence of maternal love, Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre is reimagined in the parallel lives of one soul searching for meaning, connection, and a place to belong. Jane Eyre is a missionary’s wife. A bookseller in Vietnam. A time traveler. A hero in a modern gothic tale. What if Jane’s story didn’t end with her marriage to Edward Rochester? What if she never married him at al? n one lifetime, Jane travels to India and Burma as Mrs. St. John Rivers. In another, she’s Trang, a young woman selling books in Vietnam, vying for the love of the local priest. Yet another picks up where Brontë left her, now grieving the loss of her child and crossing time and space to find him. And finally, a young Vietnamese-American man searching for himself in Boston, a tutor whose relationship with a veteran feels strangely, achingly familiar…Each thread tells Jane’s story in sweeping, heartbreaking shades of loss, vulnerability, yearning, and the fierce love of mother and child that withstands time and space. While she may long for something more out of a life she didn’t get to choose, she can still decide what to make of it.
Aktualizácia III/1 2026 – Služby zamestnanosti a zamestnávanie
Hlavným cieľom nového zákona o rovnakom odmeňovaní mužov a žien za rovnakú prácu alebo za prácu rovnakej hodnoty je transponovať do právneho poriadku Slovenskej republiky smernicu Európskeho parlamentu a Rady (EÚ), ktorou sa posilňuje uplatňovanie zásady rovnakej odmeny pre mužov a ženy za rovnakú prácu alebo prácu rovnakej hodnoty prostredníctvom transparentnosti odmeňovania a mechanizmov presadzovania. Napriek existujúcej právnej úprave zakazujúcej diskrimináciu v oblasti odmeňovania z dôvodu pohlavia pretrvávajú na Slovensku významné rozdiely v odmeňovaní mužov a žien. Z ekonomického hľadiska predstavujú rozdiely v odmeňovaní mužov a žien významnú stratu pre spoločnosť aj jednotlivcov. Neefektívne využívanie ľudských zdrojov a nedocenenie kvalifikovanej pracovnej sily žien vedie k zníženiu celkovej produktivity ekonomiky. Spravodlivé odmeňovanie môže prispieť k zvýšeniu motivácie zamestnancov, zníženiu fluktuácie a celkovému ekonomickému rastu. Súčasná právna úprava v oblasti rovnakého zaobchádzania, ktorá je obsiahnutá predovšetkým v antidiskriminačnom zákone a Zákonníku práce, síce zakazuje diskrimináciu v odmeňovaní z dôvodu pohlavia, avšak neobsahuje dostatočné nástroje na efektívne presadzovanie tohto práva v praxi. Zamestnanci a zamestnankyne často nemajú prístup k informáciám o úrovniach odmien kolegov vykonávajúcich rovnakú prácu alebo prácu rovnakej hodnoty, čo im znemožňuje identifikovať diskriminačné praktiky a efektívne uplatňovať svoje práva. Cieľom zákona je zaviesť systém transparentnosti odmeňovania, ktorý umožní efektívne monitorovanie a posudzovanie rozdielov v odmeňovaní medzi mužmi a ženami a ktorý zabezpečí, aby zamestnávatelia zaviedli štruktúry odmeňovania založené na objektívnych kritériách. Tieto kritériá musia zahŕňať zložitosť, zodpovednosť, namáhavosť, pracovné podmienky a ďalšie faktory, ktoré sú relevantné pre konkrétne pracovné miesto alebo pracovnú pozíciu, v rámci ktorých sa prihliada na mäkké zručnosti, ktorými sú najmä sociálne a komunikačné schopnosti, pričom tieto kritéria sa nesmú priamo ani nepriamo zakladať na pohlaví

Trav
Trav, thirteen, is trying to come to terms with the death of his father. Jay, Tra? best friend, is tasked with going through a decad? worth of writing that Trav wrote after finding his father dead. Stella, Tra? mother, is trying to keep it together for her son while dealing with irreparable fallout in her adopted family. Together, they try to make sense of grief and its druggy comedown, and what happens when cursed destinies intersect. Powered by the prose ? the rhythm and technique ? of accent, sociolect, and place, this novel is working-class but not council-estate chic, grim but not grey, and blessed with a slangy Birmingham vernacular not readily found in modern fiction.
Szarajevói kóla
A Szarajevói kóla kiemelkedő jelentőségű Majoros Sándor életművében, mert egyszerre őrzi meg a jugoszláv magyarok életvilágának irodalmi dokumentumát és teremti meg annak lírai, mégis hétköznapokból fakadó mítoszát. A kötet olyan korszakot és olyan közösséget mutat be, amely mára végérvényesen átalakult, és amelynek emlékei csak a személyes elbeszélésekben őrződnek meg. Az írások gazdag nyelvezete, humorral átszőtt bölcsessége és valósághű, mégis emelkedett hangja széles olvasóközönséget képes megszólítani: nosztalgiát ébreszt az idősebbekben, a fiatalabbaknak pedig érzékletesen, sőt szórakoztatóan mutatja be a kelet-európai múlt egy alig ismert szeletét.
Majoros Sándor kötete egyszerre irodalmi érték, kulturális lenyomat és identitáserősítő dokumentum. Támogatása azért is kiemelten indokolt, mert olyan hangot őriz meg a magyar irodalomban, amely az anyaországi és határon túli horizont egyaránt fontos részeként kapcsolja össze a balkáni térség valóságát a magyar próza hagyományaival - humorosan, érzékenyen és felejthetetlenül.
Gladiators in the Greek World
It was once assumed that the sophisticated ancient Greeks rejected Roman gladiators as the most barbaric cultural import possible. Surely Greeks who loved philosophy and theatre wouldn’t approve of men fighting to the death? The Romans must have forced Greeks to watch against their will, surely? As Alexandra Sills demonstrates in this groundbreaking new study, the truth could not be more different; Greeks across the eastern Mediterranean adored gladiators on an unprecedented scale. Having first explained the political and ideological function of gladiators in Rome, the author reveals why the Greeks ditched all of the boring imperialism for their own, very Greek take on gladiatorial entertainment.The Greeks saw gladiators as the perfect amalgamation of everything they loved best: the drama of mythical duels, the brutal contact sports of the Olympic Games, and the visual perfection of a honed physique. Readers will discover how a very famous Roman was beaten to introducing gladiators to the Greeks by a whole century, by a Hellenistic king once held hostage in Rome, and how another famous Roman kept a troop of gladiators in Turkey to impress his Egyptian girlfriend. There are more commemorative monuments to Greek gladiators than the rest of Europe combined, and they provide a fascinating glimpse into the lives and deaths of these ancient combatants. Gladiators in Greece, unlike anywhere else in the Empire, tell us their stories in their own words. The Greeks under Roman rule took a foreign sport and moulded it into the ultimate celebration of Greekness, with more drama and flair than Rome could ever imagine.
