Káčko, kafíčko a konec světa
Víte, proč si lidé volí diktátory? Proč demokracie připomíná odloženou občanskou válku? A co mají labutě společného s filozofií?
Káčko je intelektuál s hlavou v oblacích a knihovnou plnou antických klasiků. Jeho žena je praktická dáma s oběma nohama na zemi, která nemá pro jeho „plané filozofování“ příliš pochopení. Jejich manželské dialogy – vedené v ložnici, v autě nebo u sporáku – jsou jiskřivou, vtipnou a místy mrazivou sondou do stavu dnešního světa. Od klimatických změn přes agnotologii (vědu, která zkoumá vytváření hlouposti) až po teorii regrese, která vysvětluje, proč se moderní společnost mentálně vrací do období batolat. Martin Paur (vystupující jako K. Ječmínek neboli Káčko) stvořil moderní sokratovské dialogy pro 21. století. Když Káčkovi dojdou argumenty v debatách s manželkou, zbývá už jen kamarád Bartoš a poslední pivo v Plzeňce. Tato kniha je pozvánkou k dialogu, který nekončí ani po zavírací hodině.
„Civilizace je nepřirozená. Musíme se učit v ní žít každý den znovu. A nejlepší učitelkou je žena, která vám nedovolí dělat ze sebe naprostého blázna.“
Katova dcéra a čierny mních
Január 1663. Neďaleko bavorského mesta Schongau zomiera za dramatických okolností miestny farár. Zdá sa, že ho otrávili, no pred smrťou ešte stihol upriamiť pozornosť na starobylý hrob, ktorý objavil pod svojím kostolom. Fyzikus Simon Fronwieser a kat Jakob Kuisl nachádzajú v obrovskom sarkofágu pozostatky templárskeho rytiera a hádanku, ktorú zosnulý zanechal budúcim generáciám. Sú presvedčení, že záhadné nápisy vedú k slávnemu pokladu templárskeho rádu, po ktorom už celé stáročia niet ani stopy. Spolu s bylinkárkou, katovou dcérou Magdalenou, a so sestrou mŕtveho kňaza, vzdelanou a zámožnou obchodníčkou Benediktou, sa púšťajú do riešenia záhady. Lenže za prvou hádankou sa skrýva druhá, za ňou tretia a na legendárny poklad si brúsia zuby aj iní. Navyše čierny mních, ktorý zavraždil farára, nemá žiadne zábrany.

Pretože ti verím
Príbeh lásky a zrady od najúspešnejšej autorky New York Times
Pred šiestimi rokmi sa Camden Daniels vrátil z vojny bez svojho mladšieho brata – a nikto v malom mestečku Alba v Colorade mu to neodpustil. Najmenej zo všetkých jeho otec. A tak odišiel a prisahal, že sa už nikdy nevráti.
Všetko zmení zúfalá správa od otca a neodbytný pocit, že sa musí vrátiť domov. Bolestivé spomienky a pocit zrady však nie sú jediné, čomu Camden čelí. Čaká tam aj Willow, jediná žena, ktorú kedy miloval, ale nemôže ju mať. V Albe sú totiž pochované tajomstvá, ktoré by nikdy nemali byť odhalené.
No srdcu sa rozkazuje ťažko, a keď Willow pošepká Camdenovi, že ho vždy milovala a vždy bude, odolať láske sa zdá takmer nemožné.

Emil Einstein 5: Fantastická záchranná raketa
Piata časť pútavej série pre mladých bádateľov a priateľov zvierat
Jedného dňa malého vynálezcu Emila Einsteina v jeho vedeckom laboratóriu prekvapí nečakaná návšteva: králik, žaba a čmeliak z lúky pri útulku pre zvieratá.
To, čo mu vďaka prekladaču zvieracej reči prezradia, ho poriadne vydesí. Ich lúka sa má zmeniť na stavenisko a množstvo zvierat tak môže prísť o domov! Robotníci už okolo lúky postavili vysoký plot a stavebné stroje sa pustili do práce. Podarí sa ich Emilovi a jeho kamarátom zastaviť?
Hlavný hrdina popúšťa uzdu svojej kreativite a učí deti, že sa nemajú dať odradiť neúspechom. Kniha je navyše aj poučná. Na jej konci sa deti dozvedia stručné informácie o raketách a o gorilej samici, ktorá ovládala posunkovú reč. Je to zábavný príbeh o priateľstve, o vzťahu k zvieratám a o tom, aká dôležitá je solidarita a ochrana životného prostredia.
Takmer na každej strane je farebná ilustrácia. Malí čitatelia si okamžite obľúbia kučeravého Emila, roztomilú myšku, kocúra Leonarda či sovie mláďa Sovíka. Kapitoly majú ideálnu dĺžku, aby ich rodičia mohli večer pred spaním čítať deťom, ktoré ešte nechodia do školy, veľkosť písma je však vhodná aj pre deti prvého stupňa základnej školy.

Sad kostí
POHŘBENÉ KOSTI UKRÝVAJÍ MRAZIVÉ TAJEMSTVÍ…
V Ostravě se začnou ztrácet lidé a stopy mizí stejně rychle jako naděje detektiva Adama Richtra. Vyšetřování naráží na neviditelné zdi a podrazy z vlastních řad, Adam se ale odmítá vzdát a na vlastní pěst se noří do temného podbřišku města: zatuchlých barů, podzemních tunelů a uzavřených sektářských komunit.
Zlom přichází s archeoložkou Eleonorou Kočí. Ta v případu vidí rukopis svého otce a mocného manipulátora, jehož stín ji celý život pronásleduje. Vyšetřování je zavede až k zapomenutému masovému hrobu z druhé světové války, který dříme pod sadem Milady Horákové.
Čím hlouběji se oba nečekaní spojenci noří do tajemství pohřbených kostí, tím více se dostávají do hledáčku stoupenců sekty Eleonořina otce. Nakonec jim nepůjde jen o spravedlnost, ale o to, aby neskončili jako další bezejmenné oběti v jámě zasypané vápnem.
Ve strhujícím krimi thrilleru Martina Müllera zaznívají děsivé ozvěny ze zapomenutého koncentračního tábora Hanke. Fanoušci Larse Keplera, C. J. Tudor nebo Bernarda Miniera by neměli zůstat stranou.

Láska a jej kat
Zbierka desiatich pútavých príbehov od majstra psychoterapie Irvina D. Yaloma odhaľuje tajomstvá, frustrácie, tragiku a humor, ktoré tvoria podstatu terapeutického stretnutia. Pri opisovaní dilem svojich pacientov nám Yalom nielen poskytuje vzácny a fascinujúci pohľad na ich osobné túžby a motivácie, ale rozpráva aj svoj vlastný príbeh o tom, ako sa snaží zosúladiť svoje až príliš ľudské reakcie so svojou citlivosťou psychiatra. Od čias Freuda žiadny autor neurobil toľko pre objasnenie toho, čo sa deje medzi psychoterapeutom a pacientom.
Prečo Saula trápili tri neotvorené listy zo Štokholmu? Čo viedlo Thelmu k tomu, že celý život prežívala dávno skončený milostný vzťah? Ako Carlosovi pomohli jeho machistické fantázie vyrovnať sa s nevyliečiteľnou chorobou? V tejto pútavej knihe Irvin Yalom podáva podrobné a hlboko dojímavé svedectvá o svojej práci s desiatimi pacientmi. V hĺbke duše všetci trpeli základnými ľudskými úzkosťami – izoláciou, strachom zo smrti alebo slobody, pocitom bezvýznamnosti života –, ktorým sa nikto z nás nedokáže úplne vyhnúť. A predsa, ako prípadové štúdie dojímavo ukazujú, len tým, že sa týmto úzkostiam postavíme čelom, môžeme dúfať, že sa s nimi vyrovnáme a budeme sa ďalej rozvíjať. Autor je v celej knihe osviežujúco úprimný o svojich vlastných chybách a predsudkoch; jeho kniha poskytuje vzácny pohľad do ordinácie majstrovského terapeuta.
Nové slovenské vydanie vychádza aj s doslovom autora, ktorý sa na jednotlivé prípady a reakcie na knihu pozrel s odstupom dvoch desaťročí.

The Director
From 'one of the brightest, most pleasure-giving writers at work today' (Jeffrey Eugenides), a visionary tale inspired by the life of the 20th century film director G.W. Pabst, who left Europe for Hollywood to resist the Nazis and then returned to his homeland with his wife and young son and began making films for the German Reich.
An artist's life, a pact with the devil, a novel about the dangerous illusions of the silver screen.
G.W. Pabst, one of cinema's greatest, perhaps the greatest director of his era: when the Nazis seized power he was filming in France, to escape the horrors of the new Germany he flees to Hollywood. But under the blinding California sun, the world-famous director suddenly looks like a nobody. Not even Greta Garbo, who he made famous, can help him. And thus, almost through no fault of his own, he finds himself back in his homeland of Austria, which is now called Ostmark. The returning family is confronted with the barbaric nature of the regime. But Goebbels, the minister of propaganda in Berlin, wants the film genius, he won't take no for an answer and makes big promises. While Pabst still believes that he will be able to resist these advances, that he will not submit to any dictatorship other than art, he has already taken the first steps into a hopeless entanglement.
Daniel Kehlmann's novel about art and power, beauty and barbarism is a triumph. The Director shows what literature is capable of.
Broken Dove
LINES WILL BE CROSSED.
After blowing her cover as a double agent within Silver Elite and fleeing the Prime-controlled capital, Wren Darlington is finally safe behind allied lines. As her lover and former commander Cross Redden works to disrupt the Primes from inside their ranks, Wren turns her focus toward assisting the Uprising in overthrowing their rule once and for all.
LOYALTIES WILL BE TESTED.
But though she's back among her own people, trust is hard-won and hidden agendas abound on the Mod base. And beyond those walls, Wren can't help but worry that Cross is keeping secrets of his own... secrets that could jeopardise everything. Complicating matters even further is her shocking reunion with hotshot fighter pilot and undercover operative, Grayson Blake. Once her closest friend in Silver Elite, Gray seems to understand Wren on a level she never thought possible.
AND THE FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE OF THE CONTINENT IS ONLY JUST BEGINNING.
With the war between Mods and Primes growing more brutal by the day, and with her own role in the conflict becoming more essential than ever, Wren must confront some gut-wrenching questions. Who is she fighting for... and who is she willing to lose?

Now, the People! Revolution in the Twenty-First Century
In summer 2024, France stood on the brink of a far-right takeover. But the disaster was avoided thanks to a New Popular Front of parties headed by long-standing left-wing leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon. It won the most seats in the snap parliamentary elections, running on a radical, progressive, inclusive agenda, in large part inspired by Mélenchon's presidential programme. Now, the People! details his vision of revolution in our time. In this book, Mélenchon embarks on a survey of human history from its earliest moments to the crisis-ridden present. He outlines his vision for a new strategy for radical parties to reach the highest levels of government and peacefully transform the capitalist system: a citizens' revolution. In this revolution, individuals come together to form a single, politically mobilised people. They assert their power over the collective conditions of urbanised life, against the oligarchy that still controls them.

Roger Fry
Roger Fry (1866–1934) and his role as critic, curator and member of the Bloomsbury Group are explored in this rich and vibrant biography.Roger Fry (1866–1934) and his role as critic, curator and member of the Bloomsbury Group are explored in this rich and vibrant biography. From his curation of one of the most important collections in New York and groundbreaking exhibitions in London, to his launch of the Omega Workshops with Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, Fry introduced post-impressionism, radicalized interiors and changed the landscape of 20th-century art. His introduction of Cézanne, Van Gogh and Matisse to the British audience played a significant role in a legacy that still inspires today. Often overlooked, Fry was one of the most influential figures in 20th-century art in Britain, giving a generation of modern British artists their first exhibitions, while also creating art himself. Roger Fry: Bloomsbury and the Invention of Modern Art offers a compelling portrait of his extraordinary career and his pivotal role in redefining British art.
