Moje chytrá holčička
Charlottina osmiletá dcera Stella je nadprůměrně chytré, nejspíš geniální dítě. Charlottu ale znepokojuje a děsí náhlá proměna její osobnosti. Po nečekaném odchodu a smrti oblíbené chůvy Blanky má totiž Stella najednou úplně jiné chutě, záliby, dovednosti i temperament. Chováním i zjevem se začíná výrazně podobat právě Blance, pocházející z Arménie, ať už jde o používané obraty, chyby v angličtině, vzhled vlasů, rukopis nebo neustálou chuť na dušené jehněčí, a to navzdory dosavadnímu vegetariánství.
Charlotte, čekající druhé dítě a vyčerpaná těhotenstvím a častými nevolnostmi, je přesvědčená, že za Stellinou proměnou je nějakým způsobem Blanka. Že by Stellu posedla? Nebo se Stella stala svou bývalou chůvou? Nebo si tu chce Blančin duch něco vyřídit? Čím víc je Charlotte celou záležitostí pohlcená, tím víc je přesvědčená, že jen ona může svou dceru zachránit... I přesto, že se záhy ukáže, že její muž považuje všechna její podezření pouze za konstrukt její mysli.
Jedinečný, mrazivý příběh zkoumá nezřetelné hranice diagnózy u dětí a zásadní význam mateřských instinktů. Napínavý, nefalšovaně děsivý román s příchutí nadpřirozena ve stylu Iry Levina je ódou na mateřství, od které se nebudete schopní odtrhnout až do velkolepého, překvapivého finále.

A lyrical and personal account of Jim Crumley’s lifelong quest to find harmony in nature and to hold nature at the centre of his every thought and action as he celebrates our precious planet. Renowned nature writer Jim Crumley draws on more than six decades of immersion in wild landscapes to explore the profound harmony at the heart of the natural world—and why it matters now more than ever. With the lyrical clarity and passionate advocacy that have made him Scotland’s foremost nature commentator, Crumley weaves together close observation, personal encounters, and ecological insight to reveal nature as a vast, interconnected symphony. He argues that our survival depends on relearning how to listen to the land, to recognise our place within the great orchestration of life rather than apart from it. Through evocative prose built on his expertise and care, Crumley urges us to defend the beauty and balance of the living world, offering both a celebration and a clarion call. Symphonic is a vital testament from a writer whose life’s work is a passionate defence and celebration of nature’s enduring—and endangered—harmony.

The Zen Parent
Zen philosophy has largely been associated with finding peace within ourselves, but in this brilliant new book, East Asian scholar Dr Yen Ooi shows how ancient Zen wisdom can be used to explore how we can practice Zen while being a parent by improving our relationships with our children and finding harmony within parenting.
In Zen texts, the concept of Sottaku Douji is exemplified by the moment when a chick is hatching out of its egg. At the moment the chick is ready to emerge, it will begin pecking at the shell around it, and the mother hen will then begin pecking from the outside too. In order for the chick to hatch, the two must delicately work together.
Using Sottaku Douji and other insights from ancient philosophy, Ooi shows how we can apply these ideas to our own lives, from working collaboratively with our children more and priming them for the future to building patience and letting go of anxiety.
And through these concepts, she shows us the steps towards practising Zen as a parent.
