Collected Poems
For the first time, this volume gathers together all Tobias Hill’s poems from his four full-length collections in one beautiful and collectable paperback edition, introduced by Maura Dooley. The Collected Poems marks an important moment in British poetry, drawing together Hill’s work from his Eric Gregory Award-winning debut, Year of the Dog (1995), to the bestselling Nocturne in Chrome & Sunset Yellow (2006). Hill’s celebrated ‘urban pastoral’ was decadent yet austere, driven through radical visual desire. Here in one volume we can see the extent of his imaginative journey, travelling through towns and cityscapes, presenting a simmering world of captured lives, haunting, but filled with charm and wit. The early work is dominated by Japan, where Hill lived for two years, yet it is his beloved London that becomes the imaginative centre of his work, filled with the sensuous intensity of that great city. Tobias Hill was selected as one of the country’s Next Generation poets in 2004, shortlisted for the 2004 Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year and named by the TLS as one of the best young writers in the country.
Medailon: Odkaz předků
Dva světy, dva osudy spojené jedním symbolem a rozhodnutí, které může změnit dějiny.
Zkušená válečná reportérka Anna Carter přežila víc, než by kdo čekal. Nic ji však nepřipravilo na to, co najde doma: starý medailon, který ji přenese do Irska 16. století. Uprostřed války a intrik zjišťuje, že její jméno i odkaz jsou starší než ona sama. Hledá odpovědi, rodinu, lásku… a pravdu, která ji může zlomit.
Román o odvaze, která překonává staletí, a ranách, které nezahojil ani čas.

Poradca 11-12/2026 - Zákon o sociálnom poistení – zákon s komentárom
Zákon o sociálnom poistení prechádza pravidelnými úpravami, ktoré reagujú na ekonomický vývoj, infláciu a potreby trhu práce. Najvýznamnejšie zmeny účinné od roku 2026 sa dotýkajú najmä výšky odvodov, postavenia SZČO a vyplácania dávok. Jednou z hlavných zmien je zvýšenie maximálneho vymeriavacieho základu, z ktorého sa platia odvody.
Titul obsahuje úplné znenie zákona po novelách s komentárom:
Zákon o sociálnom poistení – zákon s komentárom
V roku 2026 sa táto hranica maximálneho vymeriavacieho základu zvýšila, čo znamená vyššie maximálne odvody pre zamestnancov, zamestnávateľov aj SZČO. Novinkou je zavedenie novej oznamovacej povinnosti pre niektoré SZČO, ktoré musia oznámiť začatie alebo ukončenie činnosti Sociálnej poisťovni v stanovenej lehote. V oblasti zamestnancov došlo k zrušeniu výnimiek z platenia poistného v určitých situáciách. Po novom sa poistné platí aj v prípadoch, keď zamestnanec dosahuje príjem počas niektorých sociálnych udalostí. Dôležitou zmenou je aj valorizácia dôchodkov, ktoré sa v roku 2026 zvýšili o 3,7 % v závislosti od inflácie. Okrem toho sa modernizuje systém dávok, napríklad digitalizáciou žiadostí o ošetrovné (OČR), čo zjednodušuje komunikáciu medzi lekárom, zamestnávateľom a poisťovňou. Celkovo tieto zmeny smerujú k zvýšeniu príjmov systému sociálneho poistenia, zjednodušeniu administratívy a prispôsobeniu systému aktuálnym ekonomickým podmienkam. Na druhej strane však znamenajú aj vyššie finančné zaťaženie najmä pre živnostníkov a osoby s vyššími príjmami.
Zasít vítr
Karolína Suková si odjíždí odpočinout do rodných Jeseníků. Setkává se zde mimo jiné i s bývalým kriminalistou Josefem Vahalou, jemuž dodnes nedá spát případ, který před lety řešil – jednalo se o sebevraždy tří mladých dívek a nevysvětlitelné zmizení čtvrté. Těla se navíc našla na kopci opředeném tajemnými pověstmi. Josef svými pochybnostmi o správnosti postupu tehdejšího vyšetřování nakazí i Karolínu, která se záhadným úmrtím snaží přijít na kloub. Navíc jsou nalezena těla dalších dvou dívek. Je možné, že se historie opakuje? Opravdu magická Hromovka přitahuje mladé sebevražedkyně? Nebo je v pozadí někdo, kdo má dívky na svědomí?

Az utolsó napfelkelte
A New York Times bestsellerszerzője –, a Cosmopolitanben „generációja legnagyobb hatású írójaként” emlegetett – Anna Todd egy érzelmes és inspiráló romantikus regénnyel tér vissza.
A főhős ezúttal egy buborékban élő fiatal lány, akinek az élete gyökeresen megváltozik egy mallorcai nyár során, amikor megismerkedik egy titokzatos helyi sráccal. A huszonkét éves Oriah Pera egészségügyi gondjai és túlféltő édesanyja mellett úgy érzi, az élete még nem kezdődött el. Ám amikor munkaügyben Mallorcára utaznak, Ry tudja, hogy ez a nyár mindent megváltoztat majd. Első lázadó tette, hogy egyedül indul el felfedezni a várost, és a tengerparton megismerkedik a bosszantóan vonzó spanyollal, Juliánnal, akinek valamilyen különös oknál fogva képtelen ellenállni. Ahogy telnek a napok Julián lehántja róla a kagylópáncélt, hogy olyan kalandokat és szenvedélyt élhessen át, amelyre mindig is vágyott. Ám közeledik a hazatérés napja, és Ry-nak döntenie kell: elég bátor-e ahhoz, hogy végre a szívét kövesse és saját magát válassza.
The Karamazov Brothers
Dostoevsky''s last and greatest novel, The Karamazov Brothers (1880) is both a brilliantly told crime story and a passionate philosophical debate. The dissolute landowner Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov is murdered; his sons - the atheist intellectual Ivan, the hot-blooded Dmitry, and the saintly novice Alyosha - are all at some level involved.Bound up with this intense family drama is Dostoevsky''s exploration of many deeply felt ideas about the existence of God, the question of human freedom, the collective nature of guilt, the disatrous consequences of rationalism. The novel is also richly comic: the Russian Orthodox Church, the legal system, and even the authors most cherished causes and beliefs are presented with a note of irreverence, so that orthodoxy, and radicalism, sanity and madness, love and hatred, right and wrong are no longer mutually exclusive. Rebecca West considered it "the allegory for the world''s maturity", but with children to the fore. This new translation does full justice to Doestoevsky''s genius, particularly in the use of the spoken word, which ranges over every mode of human expression. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
Sir Walter Raleigh
Dispersed throughout the centuries and across the globe – a sleepy Devonshire village, a 1950s Hollywood film set, a horse hurtling on a Victorian racecourse, the Beatles meditating in India, a border dispute in South America, and a storm raging in the Outer Banks of North Carolina in 1993… they all lead back to Sir Walter Raleigh. He is the man of paradoxes: the outsider who wanted access to the royal court, a monarchist who later became a republican hero, a lover and a fighter, a pirate and a poet, the last great Elizabethan superstar and the first victim of the Stuart dynasty. Let’s chart his rise, his fall, and his legacy.

Maratonská zeď
Když se na pražském maratonu zhroutí německý běžec a zemře na podivné bodnutí do stehna, kapitán Lenz netuší, že ho čeká jeden z nejzapeklitějších případů kariéry. Byla to nešťastná náhoda, sebevražda, nebo chladnokrevný zločin? Vyšetřování komplikuje řada více i méně nepředvídatelných okolností: oslabení týmu, rodinné povinnosti i nedořešený vztah s půvabnou kolegyní. Práce u kriminálky je jako závod – a tentokrát je Lenz možná až příliš daleko od cílové rovinky.

A History of Romance Novels
When you pick up the latest Emily Henry novel, or settle in for an evening with the newest volume of your favorite romantasy, you are taking part in a process stretching back two millennia. The ancient Greeks considered it a highlight of one's life to hear with one's own ears the words of the great romantic poets of their day. The Romans enjoyed sprawling romantic epics that only reunited their lovers after continent-spanning struggles against foreign armies, pirates, and treacherous monarchs. The Middle Ages sung hushed stories of lust far from the ears of the Church, while its great poets probed the darker boundaries of courtly love, and the writers of the seventeenth century delighted in giving young women ten-volume romances, delivered over the course of a decade, to fill their bookshelves and lonely hours. Writing about love, its complexities, and resolutions, has been a part of the literary tradition since its inception, but it is only in the last three centuries that the format has grown into the publishing juggernaut we know today. From the intensely observed novels of Jane Austen, through the great Sensation Novels of the 1860s that fused romance and mystery, and into the great industrial and marketing machine that was Mills & Boon and Harlequin at their height, new developments in publishing have linked up with new ideas about womanhood, sex, and romance, to produce an ever-evolving approach to the romance novel, culminating in our own modern Golden Age, where more people from more backgrounds are writing more types of romance than ever before for a readership than is larger than it has ever been, and is consuming its favourite literary form in convenient new formats. A History of Romance Novels: From Trembling Innocents to Hunky Werewolves explores the long story of our love affair with love stories, during both its eras of creative flourishing, and the long periods of industrially motivated stagnation, to give even the most dedicated romance reader a few new veins to mine, and a few more characters to fall in love with.
In The Footsteps of Marco Polo
In the summer of 1961, Stanley Johnson, accompanied by Tim Severin and Michael de Larrabeiti, set out from Oxford on two BSA 500cc Shooting Star motorcycles to follow Marco Polo’s route from Venice to Beijing. Although they came tantalizingly close to the Chinese frontier, they were forced to divert to India. With one motorcycle out of action, the three of them rode the remaining machine down the Grand Truck Road from Kabul to Calcutta. In 2023, Stanley set off again with his fourth son, Max, to finish the journey he had started sixty-two years earlier. With a brilliant camera-crew in tow, they followed Marco Polo's precise route across China, all the way to the Summer Palace of Kubla Khan in Xanadu and on to Beijing itself. This book tells the tale of an extraordinary dream come true.
Miracles Cost Extra
‘If I can’t get off – get me out – at any price!’ When millionaire property tycoon Billy Danvers is arrested and awaiting trial for murdering his wife’s lover, his best friend – a respectable city banker – turns to London’s most powerful criminal to pull off the ultimate escape. But when it comes down to huge sums of money, the line between loyalty and betrayal begins to blur. Miracles Cost Extra is a razor-sharp thriller that delivers a stunningly authentic look at how justice can be bent, bought, or broken. It takes readers deep inside the world of high-stakes prison breaks, underworld fixers, and the shadowy border between law and crime. Written by Henry Milner, a legal heavyweight who has defended some of Britain's most notorious criminals. With decades of firsthand courtroom experience, the author crafts a story so true-to-life, it could have been ripped from his case files. ‘Drawing on a lifetime defending crime, Milner writes with elegant, compelling clarity; a novel that’s simply a joy to read.’ Judge Rinder‘A well plotted and thoroughly entertaining tale of lust, murder, bribery, loyalty, betrayal and revenge.' James Morton, Author of Krays: The Final Word

With references to real villages and local folklore, these linked stories are interspersed with authentic Sussex recipes.

What was that Bang?!?
BANG!!’… "What was that sound?!" asks an inquisitive 9-year-old Bean. "It was a balloon bursting" responds his seemingly sure-footed father Meabo. "Was there a bang inside the balloon?" responds the now even more confused child. As is often the case with children, a simple question can easily lead a conversation down a rabbit hole of what, why, when, and how. So begins a journey deeper (both physiologically and intellectually) than Bean had ever thought possible. In a world where information is literally at our fingertips, it’s easy to just respond with an answer to an ostensibly basic question from a child. Simple factual answers often lack context, and abstract analogies can provide even further confusion. The graphic educational fiction novel ‘What was that BANG?!’ is a dialogue between two characters Meabo, and his son Bean. Through playful conversation, the characters take readers through the journey a sound can take from source to conscious perception. Beyond leaving children with just scientific facts, the story encourages active questioning, developing logical thought processes, and instilling a growth mindset.
Street Sweeper
“Really beautiful and vivid detailing in the storytelling.” – Chris Gribble, Former Head of The National Centre for WritingLondon, 2002. When Almir, a twenty-one-year-old Kosovan ex-boy soldier, is relocated to London with a new identity, flashbacks undermine his ability to keep his job as a street sweeper. Then he meets Roland, a forty-year-old British Jamaican, a Council surveyor trying to escape his Pentecostal upbringing, and failed relationship with Shirl with whom he has a fifteen-year-old son. Roland and Almir become closer as Roland offers first friendship, then sex, yet Almir remains secretive about his past, and struggles to identify as gay, forcing Roland to question their relationship. And who is Muzzafer, the name Almir repeatedly shouts out during frequent nightmares? As tension builds, Almir confronts his involvement in a war atrocity, which threatens to destabilise his sanity and his new UK life. But, against all these powerful obstacles, Almir and Roland’s love for each other continues to grow. Is it strong enough to last?
