The Unraveled Plot
Explores the connection between Jean-Luc Nancy's political works on community and his works on art and literature, thus providing not only a comprehensive introduction into Nancy’s work but also a broader examination of the social and political role of literature. What is the connection between the work of community and the work of literature? And in what way is literature implied in Jean-Luc Nancy's "inoperative" community? The Unraveled Plot investigates the relation between two domains that have only separately been addressed in the reception of Nancy's work: his political works on community on the one hand and his works on art and literature on the other. Lucidly traversing Nancy's entire oeuvre, Aukje van Rooden offers not only a comprehensive introduction into Nancy’s work but also a much broader reflection on the social and political role of literature. Situating Nancy's thought within a larger philosophical tradition leading from German Romanticism to contemporary social and political theory, she offers new insights, with and beyond Nancy, on the forming of communities and how literature can play a role.

Son of Nobody
THE READS TO LOOK FORWARD TO IN 2026 - TimesBOOKS TO LOOK OUT FOR IN 2026 - Guardian2026 FICTION HIGHLIGHTS - ObserverWHAT TO READ IN 2026 - Financial TimesBOOKS YOU NEED TO READ IN 2026 - BBC CultureTHE MOST HYPED BOOKS WE CAN'T WAIT TO READ IN 2026 - Elle MagazineThe past is never done with: always the song continues Harlow Donne has devoted his life to the Classical world. When a chance comes up to study an obscure collection of papyrus fragments at Oxford University, he seizes it. Though it means leaving his daughter and fracturing marriage back home in Canada, this is the kind of career break he desperately needs. In the depths of the Bodleian Library, Harlow discovers a lost account of the Trojan War, a glimpse into the founding of Western civilization itself. He names the epic poem The Psoad, after its protagonist, a Greek commoner identified as Psoas of Midea but known to all as 'son of nobody'. As sole translator and interpreter of the Psoad, Harlow dedicates the poem and its modern footnotes to his daughter, Helen. Under his gaze, the text unlocks echoes of Ancient Greece into the present day, and a personal message to his beloved child appears. Despite the three-thousand-year gap between the two, a thread hasn't frayed: the universal song of homesickness and regret, of ambition and grief. In this masterpiece of myth and history, Son of Nobody explores how stories become facts, the price we pay to share them and how we live - then, now and always.

Krkonošští rodáci vzpomínají 6
Krkonoše si lidé často spojují jen s krajinou, která je však i krajinou paměti. Je to svět, do kterého se po staletí otiskovala práce, jazyk, víra, řemeslo i každodenní starosti. A právě proto má smysl chránit vedle přírodních hodnot i paměť místních lidí.
V šestém díle Krkonošští rodáci vzpomínají najdeme životní příběh Franze Brauna z Rýchor, který si jako kluk pamatuje, jak v roce 1938 na jejich louce stavěli čeští vojáci obranné bunkry. Přečtete si muzikantské historky trumpetisty Karla Pičmana, který mimo jiné s kapelou vítal v květnu 1945 Rudou armádu nebo nepříliš veselý odchod rodiny paní Helgy Schulze-Fischer z rodných Vítkovic.
Kniha navazuje na dlouhodobou práci Libora Duška – badatele a autora, který umí dějiny vyprávět tak, aby nezůstaly jen v archivech. Jeho síla je v umění ptát se, naslouchat a zpracovat vzpomínky zpovídaného pamětníka. Zároveň nejde o pouhé vzpomínání. Jeho profesní svět se opírá o poctivou práci s prameny, místem a kontextem.
Stíny Kasejovicka 1
Kasejovice jsou malé město ležící na pomezí jižních a západních Čech. Jeho historická zákoutí ukrývají celou řadu zajímavých a zapomenutých příběhů. Kniha Stíny Kasejovicka na ně nahlíží především optikou místních mužů zákona. Čtenář se tak dostane nejen mezi násilníky, zloděje a lidi žijící na okraji společnosti, ale bude i svědkem živelních katastrof, bizarních konfliktů mezi katolíky a protestanty či politického pletichaření na místní radnici. To vše rámují „velké“ dějiny, které do dění na Kasejovicku mnohdy nemilosrdně zasáhnou. V závěrečné části se čtenář seznámí s životními osudy jednotlivých četníků a městských strážníků, v nichž se odráží dramatičnost 20. století. Nahlédne tak mezi železnobrodské odbojáře, bude svědkem poválečných excesů na Rožmitálsku a setká se s operací Státní bezpečnosti, nesoucí krycí název „Akce Lichnice“.
Smrt parašutisty Bohuslava Kouby
Rotný Bohuslav Kouba byl velitelem výsadku BIOSCOP vysazeného po půlnoci na úterý 28. dubna 1942 nedaleko od osady Požáry na Křivoklátsku. Krátce po seskoku se výsadek rozdělil a oba podřízení, četař aspirant Josef Bublík a četař Jan Hrubý následně zahynuli hrdinskou smrtí v pravoslavném chrámu svatého Cyrila a Metoděje v Resslově ulici v Praze spolu s dalšími pěti parašutisty. Rotný Kouba se odebral za účelem navázání kontaktu s odbojáři na četnickou stanici Kutná Hora. Zde jej však před jeho příchodem hledalo gestapo. Poté, co se dostal do bezvýchodné situace, aby nevyzradil své spolupracovníky a neohrozil patnáct přítomných četníků a jejich rodiny, ukončil svůj život požitím letální tablety.

The Immunity Plan
The immune system is our most valuable resource, our first and most important line of defence, protecting us around the clock. It also determines how quickly we age, regulates our body weight and metabolism, and impacts our brain health. Yet modern life, with toxins, allergens, poor diet and imbalanced gut bacteria, places huge strain on it leading to a rise in immune issues and autoimmune conditions. But research shows that by removing these stressors and improving immunity through nutrition and lifestyle, we can transform long-term health.
In The Immunity Plan, leading nutritionist Kate Llewellyn-Waters unpacks the most robust science behind our immune system, from the role of hormones and the microbiome to the ways immunity differs between men and women. With practical advice, lifestyle strategies, and immunity-supporting recipes, this essential guide shows you how to strengthen your immune health, reduce inflammation, and protect against autoimmune disease.
This is the essential, accessible handbook for anyone who wants to understand their immune system and harness its power for a healthier life.
The Keeper
On a cold night in a remote Irish village, a girl goes missing.
Sweet, loving Rachel Holohan was about to be engaged to the son of the local big shot. Instead, she's dead in the river.
In a place like this, her death isn't simple. It comes wrapped in generations-old grudges and power struggles, and it splits the townland in two. Retired Chicago detective Cal Hooper has friends here now and he owes them loyalty, but his fiancée Lena wants nothing to do with Ardnakelty's tangles. As the feud becomes more vicious, their settled peace starts to crack apart. And when they uncover a scheme that casts a new light on Rachel's death and threatens the whole village, they find themselves in the firing line.
Favourite Daughter
THESE TWO STRANGERS HAVE ONE THING IN COMMON . . . THEIR FATHER.
'He left you some money.'
Mickey felt her mouth drop open. The first half of that sentence had rung clear and true. The second half had not. Her father was one to take, not give.
After he left them for his new family, Mickey resolved never to think of her father again. She's fine without him; yes, she drinks, but only sometimes and, really, she can't not.
But with only $181 to her name, she's not above attending some mandated therapy to access her inheritance. She'll kneel at the Kleenex alter and soon be bingeing Bridgerton with a bottle of Russian Standard, five million dollars richer.
Arlo has more issues than most of her clients. Being a therapist has not prepared her for grief. She adored her father - his laughter, his charm, the smell of his cologne. She thought he adored her, too, but now he's given his inheritance to a daughter no one knows, and Arlo is at a loss.
Two sisters are unknowingly thrown together for the first time.
It's crazy, it's unethical.
It's perfect.
Open, Heaven
James dreams of another life far away from his small village. Almost an adult, his newfound desires threaten to unravel his shy exterior.
Then he meets Luke. Unkempt and handsome, charismatic and impulsive, he has been sent to stay with his aunt and uncle on a nearby farm. With the passing seasons, a bond emerges between them that transforms their lives.
Yet James is never sure of Luke’s true feelings and as the end of summer nears, he has a choice to make: will he risk everything for the possibility of love?
City of Rats
Welcome to the gutters of 1970s Paris – and the anarchic, darkly comic world of City of Rats. When pet rat Gouri finds himself locked out of his owner’s apartment, he has no choice but to strike out alone onto the pavements of Paris. But what begins as a strange and marvellous bedtime story - Gouri and his new friend Raka selling flour-coated worms to pigeons for spare change - soon spirals into an exhilarating whirlwind of murder, sex, unionised hamsters, courtroom drama, and, finally, Armageddon.
Told through a series of letters from Gouri to Argentinian playwright Copi, City of Rats channels Copi’s lifelong fascination with society’s outcasts - queer people, immigrants, the homeless, and criminals - into a fiercely imaginative, unflinchingly provocative tale of a world hurtling into madness.
K-POP - Forradalom!
Candace Park élete gyökeresen megváltozott – gyakornokból debütálás előtt álló idollá vált, lépteit rajongók és kamerák követik. Barátjával, Jongbével ők a K-pop-világ álompárja, új lányegyüttese, a The Girls sikere garantált. Ráadásul a SAY Entertainment új vezetősége is helyes irányba tart: ahelyett, hogy beszabályozná, támogatja a lányokat. A rajongók pedig alig várják, hogy kedvenceik végre berobbanjanak.
Mi történik azonban, ha a rekordokat döntögető debütálás előkészületei közben kiderül, talán mégsem következett be az áhított változás? Ha egyszer csak felbukkan egy rivális együttes, amelynek tagjai hitelesebben képviselik azt az üzenetet, ami Candace-t K-pop-harcossá tette? Ha a hírnév egyre messzebb és messzebb sodorja nemcsak a szeretteitől, hanem önmagától is?
A közvélemény és a K-pop-ipar egyszer a világ tetejére repítette, most azonban a legmélyebb gödörbe taszítja. Mit lép Candace Park: feladja az álmát vagy forradalmat robbant ki?
Open Socrates
Socrates has been hiding in plain sight. We call him the father of Western philosophy, but what exactly are his philosophical views? He is famous for his humility, but readers often find him arrogant and condescending. We parrot his claim that 'the unexamined life is not worth living,' yet take no steps to live examined ones. We know that he was tried, convicted, and executed for 'corrupting the youth,' but freely assign Socratic dialogues to today's youths, to introduce them to philosophy. We've lost sight of what made him so dangerous. In Open Socrates, acclaimed philosopher Agnes Callard recovers the radical energy at the centre of Socrates' thought and shows why it is still the way to a good life.
Callard draws our attention to Socrates' startling discovery that we don't know how to ask ourselves the most important questions- about how we should live, and how we might change. Before a person even has a chance to reflect, their bodily desires or the forces of social conformity have already answered on their behalf. To ask the most important questions, we need help. Callard argues that the true ambition of the famous "Socratic method" is to reveal what one human being can be to another. You can use another person in many ways-for survival, for pleasure, for comfort- but you are engaging them to the fullest when you call on them to help answer your questions and challenge your answers.
Here Callard shows that Socrates' method allows us to make progress in thinking about how to manage romantic love, how to confront one's own death, and how to approach politics. In the process, she gives us nothing less than a new ethics to live by.
