Samuel Pepys in 50 Places and Objects
The life of politician and diarist Samuel Pepys spanned seven decades, meaning he bore witness to many groundbreaking events such as the execution of King Charles I in 1649 and the Glorious Revolution in 1688. His famous diary was written between 1660 and 1669 and provides fascinating detail on the world around him, from the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660 to the plague in 1665 and the Great Fire of London in 1666. This invaluable record of life in seventeenth-century England offers an intriguing insight into the politics, court life, defence of the realm and commerce of the period as well as day-to-day living. He describes visits to coffee houses, taverns, theatres, bear pits and, with incredible candour, brothels. Here Pepys’ life and diary is detailed through the places and objects associated with him. Visit the locations where Pepys resided and worked, the dockyards he inspected at Woolwich and Chatham, as well as the churches where he worshipped and the coffee houses and taverns he frequented. Examine items such as the bills of mortality Pepys read during the plague, his wig, the church steeple from which he observed the Great Fire, and his will. Full of quirky facts and fascinating illustrations, this book transports you back to seventeenth-century London through places and objects central to Pepys’ life.

Notting Hill and North Kensington Murders and Misdemeanours
Before its present-day affluence, the Notting Hill area of London once had a second-to-none reputation for its criminality. Victorian developers sought to bring in wealthy Londoners to the large villas, but in the twentieth century the houses became multi-occupancy and the area synonymous with cheap lodging and crimes of every hue.

This collection of true-life crime stories gives a vivid insight into life in Notting Hill and North Kensington in the past. This book will fascinate anyone with an interest in the history of crime, as well as those who want to know more about the history of this corner of West London.
Millióéves krátereket simogatsz
A kötet a test, a veszteség, az anyaság és az emlékezés határterületeit járja be. A versek egyszerre mozognak a személyes tapasztalat és a természeti képek ősi rétegeiben: a test hol tájjá, hol romló vagy újjászülető ökoszisztémává alakul, miközben indák, gyökerek, kráterek és erdők szövik át ezt a lírai univerzumot. A szövegek a hiány, a kapcsolódás és az ember sérülékennyé lett világban elfoglalt helye köré szerveződnek. A legintimebb tapasztalatok is kozmikus távlatot kapnak: egy könny bolygóvá növekszik, egy érintés évmilliókon ível át,
a természet pedig egyszerre ölel körül és tart távol. A versciklusokat Szőke Erika kísérleti fotóeljárással készült alkotásai kísérik, tovább mélyítve a fényből, organikus formákból és mulandóságból épülő atmoszférát.
Havran Kati 1991-ben született Vágsellyén. Ez az első kötete.
Farár, ktorý zostal v Gaze
V srdci Gaza City, uprostred trosiek a bombardovania, sa nad mestom stále týči kríž. Pod ním stojí malý kostol – a v ňom kňaz, ktorý odmieta odísť. Po vypuknutí vojny mu pápež František telefonoval každý večer o ôsmej hodine. Dnes nachádzajú v jeho kostole útočisko stovky ľudí. Chýba voda, jedlo je na prídel a budúcnosť je neistá. Volajú ho Abúna – náš otec. Napriek bombardovaniu, chorobám a smrti zostáva so svojou malou kresťanskou komunitou v Gaze. V tejto knihe nájdete jeho denníkové zápisky z rokov 2023 až 2025 – deň po dni.

Ide o jedinečné svedectvo viery, nádeje a ľudskej odvahy v jednej z najťažšie skúšaných oblastí súčasného sveta.

Cesta do Jonestownu: Jim Jones a Chrám lidu
V 50. letech 20. století hlásal mladý kazatel z Indianapolis Jim Jones evangelium okořeněné marxistickými idejemi. Jeho kongregace byla rasově integrovaná a on sám byl velmi uznávaným vůdcem soudobého hnutí za občanská práva. Po přesunu své církve, kterou pojmenoval Chrám lidu, do Kalifornie se zapojil do politiky a brzy se stal výrazným komunitním lídrem. Pod nablýskaným povrchem charismatického pastora se ale skrývala nevýslovná temnota vedoucí k tragédii, která přivedla do náruče smrti stovky lidí. V tomto strhujícím vyprávění zachycuje Jeff Guinn Jonesův život, od dětství a postupné radikalizace, přes mimomanželské aféry, užívání drog a podvodné uzdravování vírou až po rozhodnutí přestěhovat komunitu svých stoupenců do osady v džungli jihoamerické Guyany. Guinn přináší nové ohromující informace o událostech, které vedly k osudnému 18. listopadu 1978, kdy více než devět set lidí (včetně téměř tří set dětí) zemřelo poté, co jim bylo nařízeno vypít nápoj obsahující kyanid. Guinn prozkoumal tisíce stran spisů FBI souvisejících s případem, které doplnil vlastním obsáhlým výzkumem, hovořil se svědky, s nimiž nikdy předtím nikdo nemluvil, a získal nová svědectví těch, kteří masakr přežili. Ruiny Jonestownu dokonce navštívil s týmž pilotem, který tam letěl v den, kdy byl na Jonesův příkaz zavražděn kongresman Leo Ryan. Cesta do Jonestownu, osmá kniha oranžové true crime edice, je definitivní, ucelenou a důkladnou studií jednoho z nejničivějších kultů moderní doby.
Önmagam árnyéka
Oszmán fia Oszmán, az Isztambulban született, ott felnőtt, majd az óceánokat teherhajókon bejáró, bálnák énekén könnyező világutazó, miután kénytelen visszatérni szülőföldjére, mindössze nyolcvanhárom nap alatt elveszíti testsúlyának felét. Oly sokáig volt távol hazájától, hogy már semmit sem talál ismerősnek. Az élete értelmét, a szerelmét kereste, de mindig mindent félbehagyott - egyetlen hű útitársa egy cserepes virág volt.
Ha az ember nem vigyáz, még megfertőzi az élet, a ragályos betegség, meditál magában Güray Süngü magányos hőse, aki újabb és újabb viszontagságokat átélve, szemlélődve hánykolódik a mindennapi élet és az álmok sodrásában is.
Mindannyian a helyünket keressük a világban - a török író fordulatos kalandokban bővelkedő regénye ehhez ritka kíméletlen őszinteséggel, egyben kivételes érzékenységgel megírt kalauz lehet mind a külső, mind a belső tájakon.

Atomic Coffin
December 1984. SIS field asset Heidi Sperling [codename Thistle] exfiltrates from East Berlin with the sole copy of a critical intelligence leak: a naval log containing a solitary message received from a previously unidentified Soviet submarine.
Incredulously - impossibly - it seems the vessel, known only as TK-15, has been sitting motionless and undetected in the waters between Scotland and Iceland for three whole years. And now this latest message reads: ACTIVE.
Picked up by the Royal Navy's submarine HMS Viking, Heidi is thrust into a 'black ops' mission: find TK15 and neutralise it at any cost. But as her only ally on board the Viking falls sick, she realises this modified vessel is far more than a Soviet experiment to gain an upper hand in the nuclear arms race. Here, in the crushing depths of the North Atlantic, it seems something darker has awoken - something that cannot be contained by any superpower.
As Heidi's own reality twists around her, an unknowable force cripples the Viking's defences and drives its crew to madness. Trapped in the deep, Heidi has no choice but to find a way to save the remaining crew and stop TK-15 for good, before it steals what's left of her mind . . .
EXODUS: The Helium Sea
The epic conclusion of the far-future Archimedes Engine duology by legendary author Peter F. Hamilton.
For millennia, the Crown Dominion has been at relative peace, with the Celestials in control and the human population little better than serfs. But now the Crown Dominion is facing a crisis of epic proportions - one that could change the balance of power in the Centauri Cluster forever - as an exiled faction that has been waiting for seven thousand years beyond the Helium Sea has returned to claim its vengeance.
For Finn and his human allies, who have ended up at the center of this conflict through either circumstance or manipulation, this is an unprecedented opportunity. If they can band together, they may be able to outwit the Celestials and finally earn their fellow humans a place of independence and power in the Crown Dominion.
But first they must locate and master ancient artifacts of immense power that could give them a needed edge in the conflict ahead - all while ducking the forces that are determined to knock them off the board for good.

Leaving the City Behind
Discovering the elegance of contemporary country house architecture-where tradition meets modern design in stunning rural settins.
Country houses have always served as retreats for withdrawing, deceleration, and contemplation. The rural environment provides a refuge from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, seamlessly embedded in nature. Today, there is a growing trend to reinterpret country living and merge it with the demands of the 21st century - creating a symbiosis of comfort, environmental awareness, and aesthetic restraint.
The focus is on harmoniously integrating architecture into the natural surroundings while emphasizing a strong connection to the landscape. Rural residences are increasingly designed with multifunctional spaces that can be flexibly adapted to evolving living conditions-for instance, home office solutions or separate units for multi-generational households. The featured designs, encompassing both new constructions and repurposed agricultural buildings such as stables and barns, showcase the diversity of contemporary rural architecture while preserving the identity of the countryside.

Clara & the Devil, Volume 1
Clara has the rest of her life figured out. She’ll graduate college with the support of her best friend, Jonah; marry her adoring boyfriend; take a full-time job at her local library; and settle down in her small seaside hometown. But when an unusual tourist—tall, dark, and infernal—comes to town, Clara’s careful plans quickly start to unravel. And even while the stranger, who openly calls himself the devil, strikes up a situationship with Jonah, he continues to tempt Clara with reckless talk of power, ambition, and lust. Over the course of one sultry summer, tensions between Clara, Jonah, and the devil mount to an intolerable degree, and Clara is forced to confront the desires she’s kept secret her whole life, even from herself. This deliciously dark tale of Faustian bargains and seduction from New York Times–bestselling author Olivie Blake and fan-favourite artist Little Chmura kicks off a series that explores artistry and power through the temptation of the seven deadly sins.
