Nejdelší z cest
Co zbývá spisovateli, když ho válka vytáhne z pracovny a vynese do vzduchu, do cizí země, do naprostého „nikde“ mezi nebem a zemí, a stopne ho? Paměť. Jazyk. Zásoba neodvyprávěných příběhů. Toto je esej, v níž se Oksana Zabužko zamýšlí nad počátky dnešní rusko-ukrajinské války ve dvou časových dimenzích — třicetileté a třísetleté — a prokládá je vlastními vzpomínkami na to, jak nevyčíslitelná suma lidského snažení může změnit běh dějin.
Hry - Archimedův zákon, Bouřlivé časy, Nejhezčí tělo,jaké se kdy na tomhle světě najde
„Je tohle pěkné místo pro život?, ptá se Agáta ve hře Bouřlivé časy a nemá na mysli krajinu nebo architekturu. I já se ptám, jestli jsme si dokázali stvořit pěkné místo pro život — když tisíce lidí umírají ve snaze doplout k našim břehům, když bez přestání krvácí další a další oběti domácího násilí, když občany dělíme do první a druhé kategorie, když radši zachraňujeme banky než lidi a když umělcům běžně upíráme právo na svobodu projevu“, s těmito slovy přebíral Josep Maria Miró i Coromina (1977) španělskou výroční cenu MAX za nejlepší divadelní hru roku 2018.
Bouřlivé časy, stejně jako další dvě hry obsažené v tomto svazku, odrážejí autorovu velikou a univerzalistickou lásku k lidem a jejich příběhům. Josep Maria Miró je bezesporu jedním z celosvětově nejúspěšnějších dramatiků současného Španělska. Vedle ceny Max je držitelem nejvyššího španělského ocenění — Národní ceny za dramatickou literaturu — a jako jediný autor v historii si celkem třikrát odnesl prestižní Premi Born, kterou porota uděluje na základě četby anonymizovaných textů.
Ve svých hrách se Josep Maria věnuje palčivým otázkám současnosti, přitom ale dramatickou literaturu ani v náznaku neredukuje na mýdlové programní nebo politické kolbiště. Jeho hry jsou plné nevyřčených vět a stokrát zpochybněných odpovědí, tajemství, znepokojivých obrazů, jeho postavy bojují o sebeurčení, o právo na vlastní život. Na malém prostoru jednoho městečka, jednoho obytného bloku nebo dokonce plavecké šatny se ve skutečnosti hraje o společné příběhy nás všech.

A hatalom bűzlik.
Én pedig gondoskodom róla, hogy mindenki érezze a szagát.
Isabela Corvellan vagyok. A nemzet botrányhősnője, a miniszterelnök legrosszabb rémálma és a lázadás élő szobra. Megtanultam, hogy a provokáció az egyetlen fegyverem, amivel sebet ejthetek apám tökéletesre csiszolt látszatbirodalmán. A sorsomat már rég megírták helyettem, nekem csupán a rombolás maradt, mielőtt a rendszer végleg elnyel.
Aztán kaptam egy árnyékot, aki látja minden hazugságomat. Alerio Cruz nem kérdez, csak parancsol. Ő nem a védelmezőm, hanem a börtönőröm, aki nem pusztán megfékezni, hanem uralni akar. Én viszont nem hátrálok, inkább hergelem a benne lakozó démont.
A hűség alku tárgya, a bűn az a nyelv, amely összeköt minket egy olyan világban, ahol a végén mindenki megfizet a tetteiért. Mert ebben a játszmában a hatalomnak nincs határa, a vágynak nincs gátja, és néha épp az ellenséged kezében van a szabadságod kulcsa.
Lenora Sandell regénye a sötétségbe csábít minket. De vajon ott mi vár ránk? Boldogság vagy örök kárhozat?
A lány, akivel mindig történik valami
Vajon mit csinál egy kályhapucoló? És abból tényleg meg lehet élni? Töprengett egy kislány, amikor az apukája azzal viccelődött vele, hogy ha nem megy iskolába, akkor kályhapucoló lesz. De a kislánynak esze ágában sem volt kályhákkal meg korommal bajlódni, őt csak a betűk és a könyvek érdekelték. Nagyapja híres szegedi könyvesboltjában pedig rengeteg könyv vette körül!
Ez a kislány az a Janikovszky Éva volt, akinek a könyvei mára a legtöbb gyerekszoba polcán megtalálhatók: derűvel, humorral írt arról, hogyan (nem) értik meg egymást a gyerekek és a felnőttek.
Ennek a nem mindennapi kislánynak a különleges gyerekkorát ágyazta mesébe Majoros Nóra, amiben egyszerre van jelen a valóság és a fantázia világa.
Radnóti Blanka művészi igényű képei is ezt az egységét erősítik, miközben a képeken titkos részleteket is elrejtett. Megtalálod ezeket?
Dějiny Saúdské Arábie, 2. vydání
Rozlehlý stát, který vyniká množstvím svého vývozu ropy a tomu odpovídajícímu postavení v regionální politice Blízkého východu i mezinárodních ekonomických vztazích, nebývá vždy chápán jako velmoc ve smyslu vojenském či geopolitickém. Aby byl respektován vojensky, musí mít na svém území strategickou leteckou základnu USA v Zahránu. Aby byl respektován geopoliticky, musí mít na svém východním pobřeží síť těžebních věží a rafinerií, kde se zpracovává kvalitní ropa a posílá se – mimo jiné – přes celý poloostrov do terminálu Janbúc al-bahr, severně od Džiddy. Aby byla Saúdská Arábie předmětem pozornosti Západu, musí aktivně vystupovat vůči svým sousedům – dalším klíčovým státům a lokálními velmocem, jako je revoluční islámský Írán (od roku 1979), vnitřně destabilizovaný Irák (od roku 2003) a kmenovými konflikty rozvrácený Jemen (zejména po roce 2011). Prestiž království v arabském (islámském) světě zajišťuje rovněž skutečnost, žepod jeho kontrolou se od let 1924–1925 nacházejí dvě nejposvátnější místa islámu – Mekka, kam se konají poutě ke svatyni Kacba, a Medína, s níž je spjato významné období působení proroka Muhammada a kde se nachází místo jeho posledního odpočinku.

The Last Piece of His Heart - Lost Boys Books 3
From USA Today bestselling author Emma Scott comes the third book in an emotional series of interconnected, coming of age YA romances.
At Santa Cruz Central High School, they called them the misfits, the outcasts, the weirdos. But most of us knew them as the Lost Boys...
Ronan Wentz has been to hell and back, and he carries the scars to prove it. Worse, the blood of a monster runs through his veins. When his uncle gives him a roof over his head after ten years in foster care, Ronan uses this second chance to become a vigilante, walking the streets of Santa Cruz to keep the nightmares at bay. If he can use his anger to protect instead of hurt, maybe he'll find the absolution he seeks.
Then he meets Shiloh.
Shiloh Barrera looks like she has it all together. Smart, ambitious, and full of creativity she channels into making one-of-a-kind jewellery. But Shiloh's demons drive her to succeed as much as her ambition - to prove her worth to the mother who can't stand to look at her.
Shiloh and Ronan's attraction is instant and scorching. Falling in love is an impossible pipe dream saved for those less damaged, but as hard as they try to resist, the feelings between them seem inevitable…until one terrible night destroys Shiloh's dreams and Ronan's future.
When the smoke clears and the rubble settles, they'll have to choose: do their pasts determine their future, or can they build a new one from the broken pieces of their hearts?
The third and final chapter in Emma Scott's Lost Boys series is a slow-burn, high-stakes YA romance that offers a dramatic and satisfying conclusion to this special series of interconnected stories.

In Botanical Time
How do some plants live for thousands of years? Which adaptations and evolutionary strategies allow them to thrive in some of the harshest places on the planet for so long—and so well? Renowned plantsman, author, and longtime botanical garden designer Christopher Woods takes readers on a popular science exploration of twenty-three of the world’s most amazing species, seeking answers to these questions by explaining their incredible survival mechanisms. Woods emphasizes how human cultures have interacted with plants over time and what we may, critically, be able to learn from them about sustainability in extreme climates. Some species will be familiar to readers, while some are outright surprising—such as the aptly named Welwitschia mirabilis, which lives happily in the Namib Desert for up to two thousand years, although many of those years receive zero precipitation. With over two hundred color images and lively, accessible text, In Botanical Time highlights fascinating facts about each charismatic plant, encouraging conservation for these species and leading us toward larger lessons about the rapidity with which humans have caused—and are causing—species to adapt. "Woods' compassion for these trees, shrubs, and herbaceous wonders shines on every page."—AHS American Gardener Magazine

Cancer, Sex, and Intimacy
A practical and compassionate guide to navigating sexual intimacy during and after cancer. Cancer changes lives—but it doesn't erase the need for intimacy, connection, or sexual expression. In this essential guide, certified sexuality counselor Anne Katz, PhD, RN, offers a compassionate, candid, and evidence-based guide for individuals and couples navigating the often-overlooked sexual challenges brought on by cancer and its treatment. Dr. Katz addresses the full scope of situations survivors may face, including an altered body image, loss of desire, physical pain, emotional distance, relationship strain, and more. Although these changes are common, they are rarely discussed openly—and survivors are often left to figure things out alone, or not at all. Through the stories of couples she's worked with, Dr. Katz shows that while the path back to sexual intimacy may be complex, it is deeply worthwhile. With equal attention to anatomy and emotion, this book empowers readers to understand how cancer treatments impact sexual function, identity, and mental health—and how to reclaim pleasure and closeness at any stage of survivorship. Clear explanations, practical tools—including mindfulness and sensate focus exercises—and thoughtful commentary make this guide both personal and informative. Cancer, Sex, and Intimacy fills a critical gap in survivorship care and reminds readers that sexuality is not a luxury, but a fundamental part of quality of life.

Rosabelle Wolff had a plan. Now she wants revenge. To save her sister she needs to get back home and destroy the system that created her.

And there's only one person to blame.
James Anderson had a plan. Now he has nothing but problems. Rosabelle might be the ally they need in a fight against The Reestablishment, but no one wants to trust an enemy assassin.

If only he could convince his older brother.
