Hőhullámon
A változókor sok nő számára bizonytalanságot keltő időszak. A test jelez, a megszokott egyensúly átalakul, gyakran több a kérdés, mint a válasz. Szükségszerű, hogy mindezt lemondásként, veszteségként éljük meg? Sheila de Liz orvosként és nőként új nézőpontot kínál – amit elmond, esetleg szöges ellentétben áll azzal, amit eddig tudni véltél a változókorról. Közérthetően, szórakoztatóan, tabuk nélkül beszél a perimenopauza testi és lelki folyamatairól, és megmutatja, hogy a megfelelő tudás milyen sokat számít a közérzet, az önbizalom, a mindennapi életminőség szempontjából.
Ez a könyv nem ijesztget, nem egyszerűsít, nem ígér csodát. Segít megérteni, mi történik a testben, hogyan lehet ezt az időszakot tudatosan, önazonosan megélni. A változás nem a női erő elvesztése. Lehetőséget hordoz – egy új egyensúly, egy újfajta jelenlét felé. A másik oldalon valami nagyszerű vár rád: saját magad új változata. Aki erős és szexi, ha éppen ahhoz van kedve, de főleg – szabad.
Solo Leveling 9.
Jinwoo válaszokat akart, és az útja pontosan oda vitte vissza, ahol az egész elkezdődött: a dupla dungeon rettenetes kazamatájába. Miközben ő újra farkasszemet néz az istenként tetszelgő, iszonyatos lénnyel, addig a japán guildeknek fel kell készülnie egy különösen brutális kapu szörnyei elleni harcra. A japán vezetés tudja, hogy miután S rangú vadászai színe-java elesett a hangyák elleni küzdelemben, az országuk képtelen egyedül megakadályozni a dungeon elszabadulását, és külső segítséget kell igénybe venniük az onnan kiáramló rémségek megfékezésére. A kérdés csak az, kihez fordulhatnak, ha a legjobbak legjobbjai is kudarcot vallanak?
A világszerte és idehaza is a sikerlistákat uraló SOLO LEVELING webtoonból készült sorozat az utóbbi évek legnépszerűbb animéje lett.
Serapion
Mgr. art. Vlado JAVORSKÝ (1952) prichádza po románoch Noah (2021), Čas čarodejníc (2022) a románe Chata v hmle (2024, Pars artem) s najnovším románom SERAPION (2026, Signis), ktorý nesie nezameniteľný rukopis autorovej tvorby. Vyštudovaný filmový a televízny scenárista a dramaturg vidí svoje príbehy v obrazoch, ktoré si čitateľ vo svojej fantázii dokáže pred očami pretaviť do akoby odvíjajúceho sa filmu. Román Serapion je „film“ širokého časového plátna. Osudy ľudí v komunite cirkusu od besnenia svetovej vojny až po neľútostnú súčasnosť. Kladie si otázku, prečo toľko pádov, prehratých bitiek a zúfalých pokusov o šťastie? Je to osud, čo ženie človeka do zúfalých činov, kde hľadá nápravu a porozumenie? Hoci je román prakticky bez dialógov, príbeh ich nepotrebuje, je jasný a zrozumiteľný. Autor je znalcom kritických momentov života, ovláda podstatu konfliktov a snáh o ich riešenia. Každý z hrdinov nesie svoj kríž bez zbytočného sentimentálneho balastu. Hrdinovia sú takými, akými ich splodila doba. Sú silní vo svojej viere, že marazmus ich bytia je iba dočasný. Hrdo nosia v sebe nádej v lepšie dni...

The Lives of the Caesars
A masterful new translation of Suetonius' renowned biography of the twelve Caesars, bringing to life a portrait of the first Roman emperors in stunning detail
The ancient Roman empire was the supreme arena, where emperors had no choice but to fight, to thrill, to dazzle. To rule as a Caesar was to stand as an actor upon the great stage of the world. No biography invites us into the lives of the Caesars more vividly or intimately than that by Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus, written from the centre of Rome and power, in AD 121.
Placing each Caesar in the context of the generations that had gone before, and connecting personality with policy, Suetonius injected flesh and blood into their stories, which continue to inform how we understand the drama of power today. Their shortfalls, foreign policy crises and sex scandals are laid bare; we are shown their tastes, their foibles, their eccentricities; and we sit at their tables and enter their bedrooms, resulting in a series of biographies mediated through the lives of the Caesars themselves.
That Rome lives more vividly in people's imagination than any other ancient empire owes an inordinate amount to Suetonius, and now award-winning author and translator Tom Holland brings us even closer in a new, spellbinding translation. Giving a deeper understanding of the personal lives of the Caesars and of how they inevitably informed what happened across the vast expanse of empire, The Lives of the Caesars is an astonishing, immersive experience of a time and culture at once familiar and utterly alien to our own.
To Kill A Mockingbird
'Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.'
A lawyer’s advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee’s classic novel – a black man charged with a serious crime.
Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man’s struggle for justice.
But the weight of history will only tolerate so much.
The Vipers
On the glittering island of Capri, anything can be a mirage. But one thing is true: there's nothing deadlier than a family with everything to lose . . .
The world was shocked by playwright Sarah Lingate’s death thirty years ago at an opulent, white-washed villa on the island of Capri. Absolved of the crime, the Lingate family maintains that what happened that night was a tragic accident. And every July they return to Capri to prove it’s true.
This time, Helen Lingate - sole heir to the family fortune - has a plan. Tightly controlled by her father, she enlists the help of the family assistant, Lorna Moreno, to free herself from her family’s stranglehold on her life. And yet, behind closed doors, the legendary Lingate family unity is at breaking point. Upon arrival at the villa in Capri, an anonymous gift awaits them: the necklace Sarah was wearing the night she died.
In the aftermath, the paranoid, insular Lingates begin to unravel. As the investigation into her mother’s death is reopened, Helen begins to lose trust in everyone around her: her controlling father Richard, drug-addled aunt Naomi, aloof uncle Marcus, and even Lorna, whose past she realizes is frustratingly opaque. And as the family fractures, the long-hidden truth about that night and the secrets they’ve kept from one another boil to the surface - and they might not leave the island alive.

Why We Click
FROM THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF YOU'RE NOT LISTENINGHave you ever met someone and felt an immediate connection? Are there people in your life who always seem to lift your spirits, while others just as reliably drag you down? Do people actually emit vibes? Are bad habits contagious? In Why We Click, bestselling author Kate Murphy explores the emerging science of interpersonal synchrony – the most important social dynamic most people have never heard of. This seemingly magical yet science-backed phenomenon is fundamental to human connection, bonding and attachment. By subconsciously mimicking one another’s movements, facial expressions and gestures – not to mention syncing our heart rates, blood pressure, pupil dilation and brainwaves – we internalize and develop empathy for one another. Weaving together science, philosophy, history, literature, pop culture and plenty of real-world examples, Murphy reveals that our emotions, moods, attitudes and subsequent behaviours can be contagious – and can have a profound impact on our health and well-being. With curiosity, concision and wit, Murphy uncovers why being ‘in tune’ and ‘on the same wavelength’ are more than just turns of phrase and offers a new way of thinking about our everyday human interactions.
