Delegátka z exotiky
Skutečný příběh ženy, která vyměnila jistotu domova za dobrodružství v tropickém ráji. Mauricius, jak ho turisté neznají – zákulisí resortů, kulturní střety, trapasy i chvíle, kdy exotika ztrácí lesk. Zkušená delegátka vypráví s nadhledem o práci, která je spíš zkouškou odvahy než dovolenou. Čtivý mix cestopisu, deníku a osobního příběhu o hledání sebe sama tam, kde moře voní po vanilce a občas i po realitě.

Shameful Silence
Break the silence surrounding male victims of domestic abuse and challenge harmful stereotypes Society has a blind spot — and one in three men are paying the price. Millions of men experience domestic abuse. Yet their suffering is routinely dismissed, minimized, or outright denied. Trapped by shame, stigma, and cultural myths about masculinity, they endure abuse in silence. Often, they lack the language to describe their experiences and face systems unwilling to protect them. In Shameful Silence, Human Rights attorney Alexandra Lozano exposes the hidden epidemic of male domestic abuse. With unflinching honesty, legal precision, and deep compassion, Lozano draws on sixteen years of frontline experience to advocate for vulnerable individuals in complex legal systems. She reveals a vital truth few confront: abuse can devastate without leaving bruises. Through survivor accounts and rigorous research, this book reveals sophisticated, often invisible tactics used against men, including gaslighting, financial control, parental alienation, false allegations, and using custody battles and immigration status as weapons. These abuses leave no visible scars yet dismantle identity, isolate victims, and destroy lives. Blending legal insight, psychological research, and deeply human storytelling, Shameful Silence challenges entrenched stereotypes about victimhood and masculinity. Lozano reframes strength not as silence but as truth. She offers readers clarity and validation that so many male survivors have never received. In this book, readers will discover: First-hand accounts from male survivors that illuminate emotional, psychological, financial, and physical abuse patterns often ignored or mischaracterizedExpert analysis of systemic failures within law enforcement, family courts, and healthcare systems that leave male victims unprotectedPractical guidance for recognizing abuse, setting boundaries, seeking support, and beginning the healing processResources and organizations specifically equipped to support male survivors of domestic violence. How to advocate for specific reforms—whether by contacting lawmakers, supporting organizations for male survivors, or challenging bias in their professional spheres—to ensure protection and equity for all victims. Shameful Silence is essential reading for male survivors seeking validation and a way forward. It is also vital for legal, healthcare, and education professionals, as well as social workers and advocates seeking deeper insight into non-physical abuse and institutional blind spots. This book expands our definition of abuse and challenges societal beliefs. It offers a blueprint for a world where every survivor is seen, heard, and protected.
The Rain Catcher
Two years after writing the memoir of Judge Sara Hastings, 31-year-old Diane Montgomery finds herself at a crossroads. In the quiet solitude of her Kitty Hawk beach house, she contemplates the decisions that have brought her here: the choice to abandon her career in journalism to write a novel, the decision to move her and her daughter halfway across the state, and the ultimate decision - moving on from the loss of her husband. But when she meets Nathan Garner, a 37-year-old artist who has recently opened a gallery near the beach, she is taken aback by the stirring of something familiar in her heart. Something that whispers of second chances and sunlit futures. That is, until Sara Hastings passes away, leaving Diane to grapple with a grief that is both new and hauntingly reminiscent of the past. Can Diane gather the fragments of her heart and put them back together, or will she allow herself to be consumed by the tide of sorrow?
Kovbojové na moři
Petr Kos debutuje knihou, na kterou sbíral materiál dlouhých patnáct let. Ale jak říká, všechno má svůj správný čas. Napřed bylo nutné kus dobrodružného života prožít, aby o něm mohl začít psát. A nejspíš i proto jeho kniha působí jako zjevení. Zčásti vznikla na palubě Anny z Troms?. Tu vlastníma rukama zachránil před osudem jiných starých lodí, které už se na moře nikdy nedostanou. Ale dno téhle knihy je ještě o hodně hlubší.
Zápisky zachycující záchranu Anny a cestopisné črty o plavbách podél norského pobřeží se prolínají se vzpomínkami na dobu, kterou autor strávil mezi rybáři na Aljašce. Na hladinu se vynořují dávné příběhy o moři, o lodích, o chlapské vůli – žít dál svůj život, i když třeba zrovna za moc nestojí, když je zrovna nejtěžší nebo začíná v padesátých letech v komunistickém Československu. Jsou to příběhy, které se vypráví jen zřídka, a jen těm, kdo si to zaslouží. Tahle kniha je cítit dehtem, potem, solí a rybinou, ale především dnes už vzácnou opravdovostí.
„Jsou lidé, kteří o dobrodružství sní – a pak jsou čistokrevní dobrodruzi. Petr Kos patří mezi ty, kteří se nebojí zvednout kotvy a pustit se do neznáma.“

Churches of Newcastle and North Tyneside
The city of Newcastle upon Tyne and the towns and villages of North Tyneside, including Wallsend, North Shields, Killingworth, Tynemouth and Whitley Bay, were important settlements in the mediaeval era but the shipping trade and growing industrialisation in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries saw the population in the area increase rapidly. Alongside the ancient churches, many more churches were built to support those communities and today, the churches of both boroughs act as significant historic records of the architecture, cycle of life, and the growth of Christian faith in the region. The churches have become recognized as a part of the landscape. In addition, many visitors are drawn today to the pilgrimage routes that pass through this area, some centred on Newcastle Cathedral.This fascinating picture of an important part of the history of Newcastle and North Tyneside over the centuries will be of interest to all those who live in or are visiting this part of the country.
