A Carnival Jangle
From the landmark writer and activist of the Harlem Renaissance, Alice Dunbar Nelson, A Carnival Jangle is a powerful and unflinching collection of stories inspired by her early life in New Orleans.These are stories of love, betrayal and fortitude, peopled by an array of vivid characters whose dramas bring alive Creole life in the late nineteenth century.Women must walk a tightrope between respectability and desire in stories such as 'A Carnival Jangle'. Poverty is tackled head-on in the moving stories 'M'sieu Fortier’s Violin' and 'Little Miss Sophie', whilst Catholic faith mixed with Creole spirituality looms large in 'The Goodness of St. Rocque and Odalie'.This series of pocket-sized paperbacks celebrates the art of the short story and marks Macmillan Collector's Library's 10th anniversary. Each contains a curated selection of short stories from a literary giant: Katherine Mansfield, Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allen Poe, Oscar Wilde, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Alice Dunbar Nelson, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Rabindranath Tagore.

From Monty Jay comes a dark and emotionally charged romance where obsession turns ruthless and love becomes a catalyst for vengeance.
She believed her love could save him. Protect him from the darkness closing in.
She was wrong.
As the copycat killer draws closer, leaving a trail of bodies behind, the threat becomes impossible to ignore-and impossible to escape. Every move feels deliberate. Every step brings the danger closer to home.
Closer to them.
But when the unthinkable happens and he is taken from her, everything changes. The person she fought to protect is left broken, and the fragile hope she once held onto is replaced with something far more dangerous.
Vengeance.
With time running out and no clear answers, she steps into the darkness she once feared, determined to uncover the truth and make those responsible pay. This time, it isn't just the Hollow Boys seeking justice.
It's her.
As grief turns into fury and love twists into something unrecognizable, she embraces the role she never wanted-but was always destined for.
Because if they wanted a villain…
She's ready to become one.

Fenomén Ostravsko
Kniha o území, kde už dávno nenajdete jen uhlí, ocel, kouř a průmysl. Autoři vás provedou Ostravou, městem v minulosti těžce zkoušeným, dnes městem moderním, obklopeným přírodou, řekami a rybníky. Od vývoje krajiny ještě před příchodem člověka přes typické, dnes již zelené, místy prohořívající haldy; přes podzemí, historicky zajímavá místa, architekturu průmyslových čtvrtí a dělnických kolonií až po osudy lidí, kteří Ostravu budovali. Strhující čtení pro každého, kdo chce tomuto městu opravdu porozumět.
Michaela Klevisová - BOX 2, 2. vydání
Kriminalista Josef Bergman hledá ve čtyřech samostatných příbězích pachatele vražd, které se odehrávají v pražském lesoparku (Kroky vraha), v zapadlé vesnici (Dům na samotě), v prostředí televizního seriálu (Zlodějka příběhů) i na odlehlé pláži v Holandsku (Ostrov šedých mnichů). Napínavé vyšetřování odhaluje spletité mezilidské vztahy a příčiny vedoucí ke spáchání zločinu. Ať už je vrahem kdokoliv, zkušenému Josefu Bergmanovi nakonec neunikne.
Někdo to udělat musel - limitované vydání
Tenhle příběh se může odehrávat kdekoliv. Záleží na dostupnosti lokací, na jejich ceně, na ceně štábu, přepravy, ubytování, na ceně všeho, ano, obvykle jde hlavně o peníze, ale já jsem zrovna v jižní Francii, v takovém roztomilém středověkém městečku. Hodně tady svítí slunce a v mé hlavě je tenhle příběh o dospívání slunce plný, proto se odehrává právě tady. Doufám, že ho odvyprávím přesně tak, jak se stal, ještě pořád se děje, naléhá na mě, píská mi v uších, musím ho dostat ven z hlavy, jinak se zblázním.

Last Night I Dreamt
'As compelling as any du Maurier mystery - an extraordinary family saga wonderfully told' GYLES BRANDRETH'An unforgettable portrait of Daphne du Maurier' TATIANA DE ROSNAY, author of Manderley Forever
An intimate, revelatory family biography of the iconic writer Daphne du Maurier and her famous ancestors, by her eldest grandson
Born into a well-known artistic dynasty, Daphne du Maurier grew up in an atmosphere of carefree privilege - but at a time when women of her class were not expected to have a career. She however defied convention and moved to Cornwall to pursue her ambition to become a writer. There, over six decades, she dreamt up the stories that have sold tens of millions of copies worldwide and still haunt our cultural imagination, including Rebecca, Jamaica Inn and 'The Birds'.Last Night I Dreamt explores how the turbulence and contradictions of Daphne's own life - spanning war, complex family dynamics, a marriage to a renowned but damaged general, and unrequited love - inspired her writing.It also uncovers the powerful influence of her notable forebears, in particular her domineering father Gerald, the most famous actor-manager of his generation; her grandfather George, a renowned Victorian novelist and cartoonist; and the mistress to the Duke of York, Mary Anne Clarke, another woman who refused to obey the rules.
Paul de Zulueta, Daphne's grandson, has drawn on private family archives, new interviews and his own memories of his grandmother, a woman who was central to his early life. In doing so, he gives us an extraordinary look into the world of Daphne du Maurier with rare closeness and emotional candour, and a moving portrait of one of the great British artistic families of the 19th and 20th centuries.
