Verity
Colleen Hoover brought you the beautiful, unforgettable It Ends With Us. Now, discover her thriller with a twist that will leave you reeling . . . Verity is a global word-of-mouth hit, with over a million five-star reviews from readers, and now adapted into a major film starring Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson.Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of bestselling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read. Page after page of bone-chilling admissions, including Verity's recollection of the night their family was forever altered. Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy, knowing its contents would devastate the already-grieving father. But as Lowen's feelings for Jeremy begin to intensify, she recognizes all the ways she could benefit if he were to read his wife's words. After all, no matter how devoted Jeremy is to his injured wife, a truth this horrifying would make it impossible for him to continue loving her . . .Before you start reading, ask yourself: are you ready to stay up all night?
Carmilla
The sapphic vampire story that inspired Dracula, in an irresistible Little Clothbound Classics edition designed by Coralie Bickford-SmithLaura leads a secluded life in a castle buried deep in the Austrian forest, far away from the dangers of the outside world. That is until a horse and carriage crashes nearby one night, and she and her father take in a weary, young traveller – Carmilla. As mysterious as she is beguiling, Carmilla weaves her way into Laura’s heart. Life proves less lonely with a friend. But sinister things start happening as the girls become closer, and the forest isn’t the safe haven it once was.Sheridan Le Fanu’s nineteenth-century gothic tale was the first vampire novella. It paved the way for a literary tradition of female and lesbian vampires, and, before Dracula, explored the boundaries of sex and death. Still as chillingly alluring today as it was when it was written in 1871-2, Carmilla now joins Penguin’s Little Clothbound Classics series.

Ďalšia zbierka veselých poviedok Dominiky Sakmárovej z Taiwanu prináša pestrú zmes zážitkov, kultúrnych prekvapení, vtipných nedorozumení a šokujúcich momentov. Nečakajte suchopárny cestopis ani zoznam miest, ktoré „musíte vidieť“. Miesto toho vás čaká celé priehrštie úsmevných príhod z rodinných aj náhodných stretnutí, spoločných výletov či návštev ďalekovýchodných priateľov na Slovensku, ktorí krútili hlavami nad našimi (ne)zvyklosťami, podivnými zbytočnosťami, všadeprítomnou prírodou a komplikovanosťou.
Spolu s autorkou sa vydáte do ohlušujúcich taiwanských ulíc aj zastrčených uličôčok so závanom cudzokrajných jedál, na chrámovú ulicu i do podzemnej vešteckej uličky, do horských výšin i medzi malebné ryžové políčka. Vyšliapete tisíce schodov, navštívite vychytené „reštaurácie“ či stiesnené bytíky. Nazriete tiež do zákutí východoslovenského mestečka a ktovie, možno sa vyberiete aj na tatranskú túru. Ako už u Dominiky býva zvykom, ani tentoraz nešetrí humorom, pridáva štipku jemnej irónie a všetko podáva s typickým nadhľadom.
Tak pootvorte okno do sveta vzdialeného tisíce kilometrov – sveta, ktorý je v mnohom úplne odlišný, no zároveň inšpiratívny a v niečom možno až prekvapivo blízky.
Daj mi šancu
Carter Beckett má všetko, po čom by mohol túžiť. Patrí medzi najväčšie hviezdy NHL, jeho tím zažíva najúspešnejšie obdobiea ženy mu doslova padajú k nohám. Na ľade je neporaziteľný a mimo neho si užíva život plnými dúškami. Aspoň do chvíle, kým nestretne Oliviu Parkerovú.
Olivia sa vo svete profesionálneho hokeja pohybuje už dlho, no nikdy ju nelákalo stať sa súčasťou jeho pozlátky. Miluje svoju prácu učiteľky, váži si pokojný život a posledné, čo potrebuje, je namyslený športovec presvedčený o tom, že môže získať každú ženu, na ktorú ukáže.
Lenže Carter nie je zvyknutý prehrávať. Keď ho Olivia odmietne, jeho záujem sa zmení na odhodlanie. Čím viac sa mu vyhýba, tým viac ju chce spoznať. Olivia si však drží odstup a nemieni podľahnúť jeho šarmu ani sláve.
Carter bude musieť zabojovať spôsobom, na aký nie je zvyknutý. Pretože tentoraz nejde o víťazstvo na ľade, ale o získanie ženy, ktorá je imúnna voči jeho šarmu. A keď medzi nimi začnú lietať iskry, ukáže sa, že niektoré hry sa nedajú vyhrať podľa pravidiel.
The Way of the Samurai Women
When Rimika Tanaka's mother Akemi died in 2021, Rimika decided to embark on an exploration of her maternal family's Samurai heritage, and what it could teach her about how to live more fully today. In recent decades, the Samurai have been made famous by ongoing movies, comics, computer games, and even fashion - and also in the hands of businessmen looking for a skillset for productivity, resilience and other macho ideals. But some Samurai, indeed the Samurai left behind to defend the homestead, were always women. In this book, Rimika explores how we, today, can reclaim this ancient wisdom, much of it held in the great and popular philosophical tradition of Zen Buddhism, for our times and in a more inclusive and holistic way. Readers will discover the inspirational example of historical Samurai Women, alongside contemporary women who possess the Samurai spirit. The book delves into concepts which allowed Samurai to survive: for example, Zen meditation, nature worship, and mindful movement. Along the way, the book offers exercises to help us channel the wisdom of Samurai. The Way of the Samurai Women offers:· Lessons on how to live with vitality and to see beauty in the inevitable passage of time.· Understanding the power of friendship, community and support from others through the Samurai concepts of loyalty and honour. · How to develop your courage, sense of empowerment, and knowing to trust yourself through Samurai wisdom.· How creativity flows through us, like a warrior or an artist, and how this way of being allows us to live life fully.

Ply
The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Trust turns to the future with a novel that examines the place of technology in the American imaginationCenturies from now, at the dawn of a historical epoch filled with both uncertainty and promise, an orphan is adrift in a city on the brink of a great transformation. The state has been dismantled, and humans are reinventing social bonds and learning new ways to coexist with nature. Following a childhood defined by loss, survival, and found family, the orphan grows up to become a “pincher,” someone who steals electricity from the grid to sell it on the black market. It’s a high-risk life, one that brings her into a rich art and music scene where she powers underground concerts. It also leads her to a colossal scientific invention that could change the very fabric of reality.After rewriting America’s past with his two previous novels, Hernan Diaz defies expectations with his third and gives us a breathtaking glimpse into the future. A major achievement from a major contemporary writer, Ply questions the place of technology in the American experiment with a plot that grabs both heart and mind. It is a novel of ideas built from a story of people. Combining Dickensian odyssey, family drama, and scientific thriller, Ply poignantly charts the tenuous boundaries of selfhood and the distance that inevitably stands between us and those we love.

Můj táta Jiří Šetlík
Jedinečné knižní paměti nahlížejí do soukromého i profesního života Jiřího Šetlíka (1929–2023), jedné z nejvýznamnějších osobností české kunsthistorie, kurátorství a umělecké kritiky. Autorka knihy, jeho dcera Michaela Šetlíková, skládá z osobních vzpomínek, rodinného archivu a dosud nepublikovaných materiálů fascinující mozaiku života muže, který zásadním způsobem formoval podobu českého výtvarného umění druhé poloviny 20. století. Kniha vedle intimního pohledu na Šetlíkovu osobnost nabízí bohatý vizuální materiál v podobě unikátních fotografií a osobní korespondence. Čtenáři tak mohou vůbec poprvé nahlédnout do dopisů, které si Jiří Šetlík vyměňoval s předními protagonisty české výtvarné scény, ale také s literárními osobnostmi, jakými byli například Arnošt Lustig či Milan Kundera. Poslední ze sedmi chronologicky řazených kapitol je věnována malířce a člence skupiny UB 12 Adrieně Šimotové. Jiří Šetlík byl nejen jejím bratrancem, ale také celoživotním souputníkem a zasvěceným průvodcem jejím uměleckým dílem.
