Warlock
‘Warlock shows us that what is called society, with its law and order, is as frail, as precarious, as flesh’ Thomas PynchonA renowned gunslinger tries to impose law and order in an anarchic frontier boomtown, in this masterly WesternThe taste and smell of Warlock was not merely that of its dust, but the taste of apprehension, the smell of fear and anger like a dangerous animal snarling and stinking in its cage . . .In the dust-soaked, lawless town of Warlock, chaos reigns. After a band of local cowboys led by the cut-throat Abe McQuown chases the deputy sheriff out of town, the local citizens decide to take action. Enter famed Texan gunslinger Clay Blaisedell, hired to restore the peace and see off the outlaws, from San Pablo in the valley to the distant peaks of the Dinosaur Mountains. But in the heat-haze of the town, allegiances shift and justice blurs with vengeance. As a strike in the local silver mines reaches fever pitch, each man and woman must face the horrors of the past, and confront an uncertain future.Inspired by true events surrounding the infamous gunfight at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona, Warlock blazed a trail for the modern Western. A finalist for the 1958 Pulitzer Prize, it offers a scathing deconstruction of the myth of America and the duel between order and anarchy.

A Game of Cat and Killer
Introducing an iconic investigative duo?a hapless detective and his capable cat?in this must-read by one of Japan's most beloved novelists of crime fiction.
Detective Yoshitaro Katayama is afraid of many things: heights, dark spaces, blood and ... women.

Gouged
Landlords are using software to band together and organise artificial rent hikes. Uber is spiking the price of rides when your phone's about to die. And without drivers' knowledge, car companies are installing software that reports your driving behaviour to insurance companies, so they can collude against you on insurance prices.
Instead of merely driving down costs, companies are now laser-focused on boosting revenue by wringing as much out of consumers as possible, bringing in record profits as a result. Price hikes are old as dirt, but today's companies have reinvented them, using a dizzying array of sophisticated and deceitful tricks to do something pretty darn simple: rip you off.
In Gouged, Lindsay Owens takes you inside the corporate boardrooms where pricing decisions are made, uncovering the techniques - from junk fees and shrinkflation to algorithmic collusion - that corporations use to jack up prices. But if there's one thing we have in common, it's that we are all consumers. It's time to fight back.

Hawking
'When one is faced with the possibility of early death, it makes one realise that life is worth living.' Stephen HawkingAn insatiable curiosity and appreciation for life powered Stephen Hawking to the furthest reaches of the universe and human achievement: during his remarkable lifetime he shed light on many of the mysteries of black holes and made key contributions to our understanding of the beginnings of the universe, all while captivating the world and selling more than 25 million copies of A Brief History of Time.A brilliant theoretical physicist, Hawking lived one of the most extraordinary lives of the past century. And yet, none of this should have been possible. Aged 21, he was given only a few years to live - and spent the next fifty-five showing what can be achieved despite near-hopeless odds.Drawing on his parents' previously unseen letters and diaries, and exclusive interviews with Stephen's family, friends and closest colleagues, Costa Award-winning biographer and physicist Graham Farmelo reveals the complex man behind the theories and global celebrity - and the resilience, fortitude and support that enabled him to defy his life-limiting diagnosis.Vividly told and rigorously researched, Hawking is the definitive portrait of an exceptional man and extraordinary intellect.

'Beautifully drawn setting with a touching friendship at its core' Elle McNicoll, author of A Kind of Spark
Lumi is far from thrilled when her parents send her to stay in Lapland with her aunt and uncle - especially because being autistic makes it hard for her to adjust to a new place. But everything changes when she befriends a lone white wolf. So when hunters threaten his life, Lumi makes a brave decision: she will save him by leading him to a national park.
Scouting a trail through the frozen wilderness, making camp in cosy hiking cabins, and even trying saunas and ice-swimming, Lumi begins to open up to Lapland and even accepts the help of local boy Oskár. But with danger at their heels, can they find safety in time - and a place to belong?
An unforgettable story about discovering your strengths and finding your place in the world, written by a Finnish neurodivergent storyteller. Featuring illustrated pages from Lumi's forest diary.

The Price We Pay for Our Beautiful Blood
Motivačno-biografická kniha založená na skutočnom životnom príbehu autorky.
Kniha prináša pohľad na skúsenosti žien vyrastajúcich v prostredí ovplyvnenom patriarchálnymi pravidlami, spoločenskými očakávaniami a tradíciami, ktoré v mnohých častiach sveta stále ovplyvňujú životy žien.
Autorka prostredníctvom vlastného príbehu a príbehov zo svojho okolia otvára témy ženskosti, identity, slobody, rodinných vzorcov
a odvahy zmeniť vlastný život. Nie je však iba pomenovaním problémov. Je predovšetkým príbehom zmeny, uzdravenia a nádeje.
Kniha má ženám ukázať, že aj napriek prostrediu, v ktorom vyrastali, môžu nájsť vlastný hlas, prekročiť hranice, ktoré im boli nastavené, a vytvoriť si vlastnú cestu.
HLAVNÁ MYŠLIENKA
Táto kniha vznikla ako osobný proces liečenia a zároveň ako začiatok širšieho projektu zameraného na podporu žien, osvetu a otvorenie diskusie o témach, ktoré sú často prehliadané alebo tabuizované. Autorka prepája dve skúsenosti – balkánske korene a život na Slovensku. Vďaka tomu mala možnosť spoznať rozdiel medzi slobodou a obmedzeniami, medzi tradíciami a vlastným rozhodnutím vytvoriť si život podľa seba.
Nie každé ticho je pokoj.
Nie každá rodina je bezpečie.
Tento príbeh vás zavedie do sveta, kde láska často bolela viac než nenávisť, kde pravda mala svoju cenu a kde ženskosť znamenala boj o vlastnú slobodu. Je o rodine, viere, moci, o sile žien, ktoré sa dokážu postaviť tlaku tradície, a o ceste k pochopeniu samých seba.
Nie je to príbeh obete. Je to príbeh prežitia, vzdoru a prerušenia systému, ktorý už doslúžil.
Príbeh sebapoznania - pre všetkých, ktorí sa niekedy cítili príliš utláčaní svetom, ktorý ich učil mlčať.
Otvor túto knihu a objav príbehy, ktoré sa ti dotknú duše, rozbúšia srdce, niekedy ťa rozčúlia, inokedy donútia zamyslieť sa – a možno ti pomôžu nájsť vlastnú silu medzi bolesťou a slobodou. Silu, ktorá odštartuje zmenu.
