They point towards a deeper truth, a more transcendent way of looking at our existence.Each tale is a tiny epic, a delicate world in itself. They flow easily, but burn slowly.

Smrtelně raněný
Hledání ztraceného času v Neapoli, ve městě, které vás „smrtelně raní, nebo vás uspí, anebo obojí současně“.
Mladý absolvent práv Massimo De Luca se chystá odejít z rodného města, ve kterém vždy „vítězí Příroda nad Historií“. Zároveň by ale chtěl ještě jednou prožít „krásný den“, který je v jeho vzpomínce spjat se sluncem, s mořem a s věkem naděje, kdy na jeho život ještě nedopadl temný stín Velké promarněné šance. Smrtelně raněný, román, za nějž Raffaele La Capria získal v roce 1961 významnou Cenu Strega, je dnes už klasickým dílem moderní italské literatury. A přestože se čtenáři zpočátku trochu vzpírá – vrhá ho do víru vnitřních monologů, unáší ho v proudu vědomí, pohupuje jím jako ve vlnách mezi několika letními dny od závěru druhé světové války až do jedné neděle roku 1954, kdy se Massimo se svým městem loučí –, zároveň ho uhrane svou sugestivní atmosférou stesku i radosti, bezstarostnosti i úzkosti, energie i ochromení, vitality i prázdnoty.
Poválečná Neapol, která se v rukou stavebních spekulantů a zkorumpovaných politiků marně pokouší stát moderním velkoměstem, okolní letoviska a ostrovy, jež jsou dějištěm sladkého života smetánky z celého světa, kluby a bary, kde zlatá mládež řeší zásadní otázku, zda je lepší šampaňské značky Veuve Cliquot, či Pommery, věčné neapolské mládí, které zdegeneruje v senilní stáří, aniž prošlo katarzí dospělosti a zodpovědnosti, Massimovy návraty, jež jsou jen opakující se honbou za přeludem, za časem, který už může nalézt jedině ve snu. Opojný koktejl La Capriova textu ovlivnil řadu významných umělců, jedním z jeho velkých obdivovatelů je režisér Paolo Sorrentino, který svému krajanovi a jeho tvorbě vzdává hold skoro v každém svém filmu.

‘Joyous. The perfect walk through history‘ – Sir Tony Robinson, actor, presenter and author
'Whimsical, charming and cosy. Will make you want to take a long walk, look at some churchyards, and drink a lovely cup of tea' – Alice Winn, bestselling author of In Memoriam
In 1290, England mourned the death of a queen, Eleanor of Castile, beloved wife of King Edward I, the warrior king. Her body was carried on a 200-mile journey from Lincoln to London, a solemn procession that would become immortalized in stone. To mark the places where it stopped overnight, a heartbroken Edward commissioned twelve magnificent Eleanor Crosses.

As Alice journeys in search of England’s forgotten Queen, over ancient paths and modern motorways, history comes alive in surprising ways. Lively and entertaining, Eleanor uncovers the extraordinary life and formidable character of this lesser-known royal, revealing her inspiring legacy and the hidden history of Britain.

The Secret History of Gold
Gold (noun): A precious, yellow metal, prized for its beauty. Inert, immune to corrosion, highly malleable though with little utility. Seen as pure wealth.
The definitive biography of the metal that has shaped our world - and may yet determine its fate.
The Secret History of Gold tells the epic tale of the world's oldest, and most treasured, currency. From its origins in the formation of the solar system to its pivotal role in both ancient myth and modern finance, Dominic Frisby explores, with wit and brevity, how gold has defined the entire course of human civilisation.
Gold has inspired men to do the most brilliant - and terrible - things. The most stolen metal in history, it has lured explorers, conquerors and thieves. It has sparked wars, it has built empires, it has empowered leaders - from Alexander the Great to Adolf Hitler - good and bad. As nations today such as China and Russia mine and hoard gold at record rates, Frisby examines its enduring significance in the digital age and its potential to influence global peace and power.
This is the untold story of gold: its past, its present and its future.

Join Elizabeth Sulis Kim as she travels across the globe and through time, from our deep past into the future, bringing together the animals which have captivated us for millennia.
Steeped in folklore, mythology, magic and religion, The Book of Beasts tells the story of our shapeshifting relationships with animals, from reverence to persecution, friendship to fear, awe to indifference.

Homo Criminalis
Crime doesn't just pay, it tells. What we choose to ban, penalise or prosecute says something about us; and how far the mobsters and mafias are still able to ply their trades says something about us, too.

From Chinese banditry and eighteenth-century English tea smuggling to today's cocaine submarines and the high-tech crimes of tomorrow, this book aims to shows just how far society has changed - and how crime has changed with us.
Often considered marginal or an aberration, we'll see how the power structures and power struggles of the criminal world have actually worked to drive progress, forming the necessary dark underbelly of humanity's evolution.
The Bells of Nagasaki
‘A book that everyone should read’ The Times
A harrowing, heart-rending first-hand account of the bombing of Nagasaki – and the acts of human kindness left in its wake.
On 9th August 1945, the Japanese city of Nagasaki is hit by an atomic bomb. Forty thousand people are killed instantly. Doctor Takashi Nagai is not one of them.
Pulling himself, broken and bloodied, from the wreckage that was once the city’s university hospital, Takashi bundles together a tattered group of survivors. Doctors, nurses, students, each with their own losses, their own fears for the future: they work tirelessly at the impossible task of aiding the countless wounded and easing the deaths of those they cannot save. They remain determined to heal their fallen city, to find solace and hope among the rubble, even as a strange and growing sickness begins to claim them.
Eyewitness to one of the most fatal events in human history, this is Takashi’s record, written from his sickbed – a chilling historical document, and undeniable evidence of the capacity for human kindness.
Published now in the UK to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
