Radio silence - Rádiócsend
Mi van, ha minden, amit eddig hittünk magunkról, tévedés?
Frances mindig is tanulógép volt, egyetlen céllal maga előtt: bejutni egy elit egyetemre. Semmi sem állhatott az útjába. Sem a barátok, sem egy nyomasztó titok – még az sem, hogy ki ő valójában, a szíve mélyén.
Amikor Frances találkozik Aleddel, a kedvenc podcastjának zseniálisan tehetséges, de visszahúzódó alkotójával, egy teljesen új világot fedez fel. Aled megnyitja előtte az ajtót a valódi Frances felé, és a lány először tapasztalja meg, milyen az igazi barátság – amelyben félelem nélkül önmaga lehet.
Aztán a podcast hirtelen nagyon népszerűvé válik, és a barátok között kialakult törékeny bizalom darabokra hullik.
Frances a régi és az új énje közt reked. Az álmai összeomlanak. A bűntudat szorításában ráébred, hogy nincs más választása, szembe kell néznie a múltjával…
Be kell vallania, miért tűnt el régi barátja, Carys.
Közben az egyetemen Aled is magára marad, és sötét titkokkal küzd.
Csak a félelmeinkkel való szembenézés vezethet győzelemhez. És csak önmagunk felvállalásával találhatjuk meg a boldogságot.
Francesnek ehhez minden bátorságára szüksége lesz.
Lebilincselő ifjúsági regény, amely az önmagunk keresésének, az elvárásoknak és a választás szabadságának kérdéseit boncolgatja – a korosztály egyik legizgalmasabb írójának tollából

Wildcat Dome
Mitch and Yonko haven’t spoken in a year. As children, they were inseparable, raised together in an orphanage outside Tokyo?but ever since the sudden death of Mitch’s brother, they’ve been mourning in their private ways, worlds apart.

Because long ago they witnessed an unspeakable tragedy, a tragedy that they’ve kept secret for their entire lives. They never speak of it, but it’s all around them. Like history, it repeats itself.Yuko Tsushima’s sweeping and consuming novel is a metaphysical saga of postwar Japan. Wildcat Dome is a hugely ambitious exploration of denial, of the ways in which countries and their citizens avoid telling the truth?a tale of guilt, loss, and inevitable reckoning.

House of Huawei
The untold story of the mysterious company that shook the world
On the coast of southern China, an eccentric entrepreneur spent three decades steadily building an obscure telecom company into one of the world's most powerful technological empires with hardly anyone noticing. This all changed in December 2018, when the detention of Meng Wanzhou, Huawei Technologies' female scion, sparked an international hostage standoff, poured fuel on the U.S.-China trade war, and suddenly thrust the mysterious company into the international spotlight.
In House of Huawei, Washington Post technology reporter Eva Dou pieces together a remarkable portrait of Huawei's reclusive founder Ren Zhengfei and how he built a sprawling corporate empire - one whose rise Western policymakers have become increasingly obsessed with halting. The book dissects the global web of power, money, influence, surveillance, bloodshed and national glory that Huawei helped to build - and that has also ensnared it.
My Life in Music
A passionate and illuminating memoir by the celebrated Chief Conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra. 'Mesmerising.' DANIEL BARENBOIM Sir Antonio Pappano is one of the best known and most celebrated conductors alive today. His deeply held belief in the power of music to inspire and enlighten is the motivation behind this long anticipated memoir. In 1969, decades before he was chosen to conduct the music at the Coronation of King Charles, Sir Antonio Pappano was a ten-year-old boy accompanying his father's singing lessons. My Life in Music tells the moving tale of a legendary conductor who, nurtured in childhood by his parents and their dedicated work ethic, goes on to conduct at many of the most influential opera houses of Europe and North America. Pappano skilfully evokes an extensive selection from his wide-ranging repertoire - operas and orchestral works spanning from Mozart to Birtwistle and Mark Anthony Turnage, as well as art song and chamber music works in which he has performed as a pianist - and makes a compelling case for the potential classical music has to captivate new and wider audiences.
All The Other Mothers Hate Me
Maybe having a few enemies on the school run means you're doing something right…
Florence knows all about failure. After a dismal end to her 2000s girlband career, she's moping around West London, single, broke and unfulfilled. The only things she's proud of are her increasingly elaborate nail art choices - and her ten-year-old son, Dylan.
But when Alfie Risby, Dylan's bitter class rival and the child heir to a frozen foods empire, mysteriously vanishes on a school trip, Dylan becomes a prime suspect. Florence has to get her act together, find the missing boy and clear her son's name or risk losing him forever. The only problem? She doesn't have any detective skills, she's not exactly popular at the school gates and she's just found Alfie's backpack hidden under Dylan's bed…
All the Other Mothers Hate Me is an irresistibly witty novel about fitting in, starting over and the lengths we'll go to for the people we love.
Scottsboro
Shortlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction, a novel inspired by the shocking true story of the Scottsboro boys. Even after all these years, the injustice still stuns. Innocent boys sentenced to die, not for a crime they did not commit, but for a crime that never occurred. Lives splintered as casually as wood being hacked for kindling. Alabama, 1931. A freight train is stopped in Scottsboro, nine black youths are brutally arrested and, within minutes, the cry of rape goes up from two white girls. In the shocking aftermath, one sticks to her story whilst the other keeps changing her mind, and an impassioned young journalist must try to save nine boys from the electric chair, one girl from a lie, and herself from the clutches of the past . . . Stirring racism, sexism and the politics of a divided America into an explosive brew, Scottsboro gives voice to the victims - black and white - of this infamous case. Shortlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction in 2009, Ellen Feldman’s classic charts a fight for justice during the burgeoning civil-rights movement. Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

Preparing for War
An original conceptual approach to the study of war, attempting to capture the entire phenomenon of military adaptation—whether strategic, institutional or in the field. The unravelling of the post-Cold War order has intensified geopolitical tensions, driving a global increase in defence spending. Most military organisations are engaged in a process of drastic transformation, trying to scale their activities, learn from contemporary battlefields, and improve readiness. Yet armed forces engaged in such reforms must solve a major dilemma: how to adapt to an uncertain future without losing their current identity, coherence or operational effectiveness. In this incisive and timely study, Olivier Schmitt explores how modern militaries adapt, or fail to adapt, to evolving threats, technologies and political constraints. Drawing on global case-studies--from the trenches of Ukraine to the halls of the People's Liberation Army leadership--he investigates how social expectations, political constraints and organisational cultures collide in the worldwide quest to reform the military. Essential reading for defence professionals, policymakers and scholars of international security, Preparing for War equips readers with the tools to grasp not only the 'how' but the 'why' behind military transformation. In an era of rising defence budgets and shrinking certainties, this book delivers crucial insights into the future of war--and the institutions that must be ready for it.
