Keys to My House


At dawn on October 13, 2023, a week after the Hamas attack on Israel and the start of the war in the Gaza Strip, Palestinian journalist Sami al-Ajrami locks the door of his home in Jabalia, where he has lived all his life. According to the instructions of the Israeli army, he and his family are evacuating to the south. For the Italian newspaper La Repubblica, Al-Ajrami begins a diary in which he reports on the escalating conflict and the journey to southern Gaza. He writes about the constant search for a safe shelter, for food and warmth, but also about the sadness of leaving everything behind and the constant fear of the bombings. These daily reports form the basis for this book. He writes without embellishment, only what he sees and hears. Al-Ajrami describes the days, the waiting, the bombs, the hunger and thirst, the deaths. He describes the little things people do to keep each other going: the jokes they make, the stories they tell each other. What he does to distract children during bombings: he solves a Rubik''s cube, while the children look on as if hypnotised. The Keys to My House is a chronicle of an immense tragedy, of daily life in the bomb-ravaged Gaza Strip, but also an intimate portrait of a family experiencing the drama of war firsthand. This is the human story behind the cold numbers from Gaza. The story of a father who cannot protect his daughters, of a son who cannot bury his father properly and has to leave his mother behind. But this is also monumental journalism: factual, informative, and detailed. As if it wants to say: ''This is how it is, this has happened, this is happening now. It''s on paper, you just have to read it.''

Katica Pacija - képes gyermekmesék


Szeretettel ajánlom ezt a könyvet mindenkinek, különösen azoknak, akik most vesznek kézbe először könyvet a szerzőtől. (Aki az elsőt olvasta, úgysem hagyja ki a másodikat). Pálmai Tamás újabb mesekönyvét tarthatjuk kezünkben, gyönyörű kivitelben. A szerzőt igen sokoldalú emberként ismerem több évtizede. Ismerem úgy, mint kiváló orvost, hívő katolikust, jó tollú írót, közéleti szereplőt, mint nagypapát és sorolhatnám, azonban röviden összefoglalva - Tamási Áron után szabadon - "otthon van a világon". Olvasni kezdtem újabb meséjét: lüktetnek, zsonganak, zenélnek a sorok. Nem lehet abbahagyni! Édes kis történet, a szereplők valóságosak. Hányszor kérik a nagyszülőtől az unokák: "most igaz mesét mondj!" Igen, ez valóságos, olyan jól esik hangosan olvasni. A mesebeli "Katica" csodákat művel: visszavezeti a gyermekek vagy az éppen mesét felolvasó felnőttek szívét a teremtett világ csodáiba. Mennyi csodája van Istennek, amit még nem láttunk meg, vagy nem tartottuk értéknek! Valóságos történet, mely összefoglalja az élet értékes alapfeltételeit: beszélgetés a családban, tervezés a sodródás helyett, a munka fontossága. "Katica" - kedves "Katica" - ne fáradj el, vezess újabbnál újabb kalandokra bennünket! Vagyis inspiráld az írót, menjen veled! Segítsetek a gyerekeknek megkülönböztetni a valódit a hamistól. Azzal a reménységgel vagyok, hogy az olvasók közül sokan a "kütyüket" félretéve, elindulnak a gyönyörű tavaszban megkeresni Bénit, mert Béni valóságos. H. Kovács Eszter Az író önvallomása: Erdély szülöttje, de békési háziorvos vagyok 35 éve, és amióta az eszem tudom az olvasás és írás megszállottja. Volt, amikor író akartam lenni, de hálás vagyok szüleim szelíd erőszakáért, akik megértették velem, hogy rengeteg orvos ír. Tegyem én is mindkettőt. Nem bántam meg, hiszen gyógyítani és írni egyaránt szeretek. De legjobban az embereket szeretem.

Earth's Amphibious Transformation


In the first history of the oceanic Anthropocene, Stefan Huebner explores the twentieth-century extension of human habitats into oceanic spaces. He shows how the effects of this amphibious transformation have followed a very different trajectory from human-driven change on land, in terms of both socioeconomic development and environmental degradation. The extension of the human habitat through artificial islands such as seabed-fixed and floating structures has granted vertical access to Earth's different spatial layers, from the fossil fuels beneath the seabed to outer space. Huebner asks why this transformation occurred; how it has been shaped by political, economic, and environmental factors; and how it has altered marine environments. A deeper understanding of Earth's amphibious transformation compels us to reconsider the history and future of climate change, sea level rise, energy transitions, human–marine species interactions, globalization, and even urbanization, including floating cities. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

Prokletí Hecate Cavendishové


Anglie roku 1881. Herefordská katedrála stojí na stráži nad městem, střeží jeho tajemství a drží ve svém kamenném objetí dávno zapomenuté duše. Hecate Cavendishová se s odvážně vyhrnutými sukněmi řítí na kole dlážděnými ulicemi a míří za svým novým životem asistentky knihovníka. Ale tohle není obyčejná sbírka knih. V katedrále se nachází starobylá knihovna spoutaná řetězy, moudrost střežená po staletí, tajemství a příběhy uzamčené na jejích opotřebovaných, skromných policích. Nejcennějším artefaktem je však středověká mapa světa, která visí vedle Hecatina stolu. Netuší, jak velký význam pro ni budou mít podivné osoby a bájná stvoření na ní vyobrazená. Netuší ani to, že ve strašidelné katedrále na ni čekají ztracené duše. Některé z nich se stanou jejími nejdražšími přáteli. Jiné budou hledat její pomoc při hledání klidu. A další ji vystaví velkému nebezpečí, čímž, jak Hecate rychle zjistí, ohrozí životy všech, které miluje.

Obušky a chačapuri - Zápisky z Gruzie


Kniha přináší svědectví o společenské, politické a kulturní situaci Gruzie v přelomovém období 2024–2025, kdy se mladá demokracie s proevropským směřováním proměnila ve stát ovládaný jednou stranou. Autorka, mladá Češka, strávila v Gruzii rok jako výzkumnice, místo běžné terénní práce se ale stala svědkyní dramatického společenského zlomu. V jejím vyprávění se prolínají osobní zážitky s rozhovory s novináři, občanskými aktivisty, ale i s obyčejnými lidmi z různých regionů a společenských vrstev – včetně zástupců etnických menšin nebo přívrženců vládní strany. Každý z nich se s novou realitou vyrovnává jinak. Kniha popisuje rozpad nezávislých médií pod tlakem nové legislativy, zastrašování protestujících i proměnu veřejného prostoru. Je to portrét společnosti a země, která během jediného roku přišla o iluze – ale ne o důstojnost a odvahu.

Hitler's War Against the French Resistance


In 1941, a year after France formally surrendered, Charles de Gaulle, the leader of the Free French forces, appointed Jean Moulin to coordinate the various resistance movements that had sprung up all over France. His mission was to unify the diverse and often fragmented resistance groups into a more cohesive organization. He successfully brought together various resistance factions under the umbrella of the National Council of the Resistance (CNR), which was a crucial step toward creating a united front against both the Nazis and the Vichy French regime. Since the start of the Occupation, the Germans realized that resistance to their rule was inevitable. With this in mind, they went about establishing total control of France, not only through the German Army forces stationed in the country, but using the entire Nazi security apparatus. From 1941 onwards, the Germans began to encounter frequent and increasingly more damaging acts of resistance, which required not only intelligence and counter-intelligence work, but the launching of raids and small operations. The intensity of partisan attacks began to increase even more in 1942. This level of resistance grew even greater in 1943. By then, the partisans were selectively challenging local German garrisons and collaborator forces in the French countryside. By the beginning of 1944, the Resistance, or Maquis as it was also known, became bolder, even establishing so-called Free-French republics in various regions of the country. Employing primary source documents from several archives, author Antonio Munoz has produced a one-volume study that fully covers the partisan and anti-partisan struggle in France from 1940 through to 1944. Hitler’s War Against the French Resistance, 1940-1944 is a valuable reference source for those who wish to study the guerrilla and anti-guerrilla struggle during the Second World War.

And they recount the Battle of Cable Street, where East Enders took on Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts.

They Marched Under the Sun


Ana and Joan. The first, a woman of daytime, of the contemporary, bombarded by consumerism and the aesthetic and behavioral pressures of our times. The second, a woman immersed in the realm of the night, attuned to ancestralism, rites of passage, and the intuitions of her subconscious. Both are on the brink of turning eighteen, and their stories run in parallel, month by month, until their birthdays. But more than just a tale of the two young women's journeys, They Marched Under the Sun is a novel about violence, religious persecution, the loss of freedom and rights, as well as a statement on our need for ritual, dreams, and the resignification of bodies and social roles, conveyed in the author's vibrant and singular literary voice.
