The Kiss
This book tells the surprising history of our most intimate gesture: the kiss. Richly illustrated, it explores a millennium of kisses, asking how and why the kiss has retained its power over the centuries, and what it might mean today. From the furtive kisses of fated lovers Heloise and Abelard to The Godfather’s ‘kiss of death’, Katie Barclay shows how the kiss can be romantic, peaceful, transgressive, intimate, erotic and more. There are kisses that are bad ideas, dangerous kisses and funny ones. New kisses are invented and old ones fall out of favour. While the kiss continues to change, Barclay shows that we kiss fewer people, and less often, than we used to.The Kiss reveals a cultural inheritance transmitted in story and song, art and literature, and through the everyday kisses that we receive from our parents, or reserve for our lovers; when we kiss, we kiss with the weight of history.

Sila vetra 17
Notebook v batohu, otlčený kufor po mame s niekoľkými kusmi oblečenia a AirPody v ušiach. Ida sa pravdepodobne navždy lúči s mestečkom, v ktorom strávila celý život. Lúčenie však nie je jej silná stránka, veď pred dvoma mesiacmi neprišla ani na matkin pohreb. Na stanici si vyberie vlak, ktorý ide najďalej, s konečnou na ostrove Rujana. Ako vlak uháňa do neznáma, Ida sa pýta, či bude niekedy schopná začať nový život. A myslí na Tildu. Čo by urobila jej sestra? Tilda, vždy odhodlaná a metodická. Tilda, ktorá kedysi zaplávala každý deň 22 dĺžok bazénu. Ida sa zase na ostrove vrhne do Baltského mora a pláva, kým sa úplne nevyčerpá. Až vtedy ustúpia pocity zúrivosti, ľútosti a viny, ktoré ju týrajú. Keď náhodou stretne krčmára Knuta a jeho manželku Mariannu, všetko sa začne usadzovať: ich vľúdne prijatie, ranné teplé žemle, prechádzky lesom, spoločenské hry a večer práca v krčme píšu Idin nový príbeh. Spozná podobne zraneného a nahnevaného Leifa a zrazu je všetko o niečo ľahšie, teplejšie a znesiteľnejšie. Potom sa však dozvie ťaživú správu a bolesť opäť prepukne s novou silou. Bude sa musieť znovu rozhodnúť: utiecť alebo zostať?
