The Porpoise
A motherless girl grows up in isolated luxury, hidden from the world by her wealthy father. She believes their life together is normal – but as time passes, she has a growing sense that something between them is very wrong.
She cannot escape, so she seeks solace in her books. Her favourite tales are those that conjure ancient worlds – of angry gods and heroic mortals, one of whom will some day come to her rescue.
Soon, she will forget where the page ends and her mind begins.
A Mannok
Az 1974-ben született német irodalomtörténész könyve dokumentumokra épülő, különleges családregény, Thomas Mann családjának élet- és kortörténete az 1920-as évek elejétől egészen a huszonegyedik század kezdetéig. Thomas Mann 1905-ben vette feleségül a dúsgazdag müncheni famíliából származó Katia Pringsheimet, és 1919-ig hat gyermeke - három fia és három lánya - született tőle.
Tilmann Lahme a legidősebb gyermekek, Erika és Klaus kamaszkorától követi nyomon a családtagok külön-külön is regénybe illően fordulatos, a német történelemmel szorosan összefonódó és sok szempontból tragikus sorsát. Kronologikus rendben, évről évre, a párhuzamos életrajzok módszerével halad.
A Mann-családban mindenki írt, ha mást nem, emlékezéseket, de mindenki az apa nyomasztó árnyékában. Publikált szövegeik mellett Lahme ismeretlen levelek, naplók és feljegyzések százait is áttanulmányozta, és bőségesen idéz belőlük. A tényeket és a dokumentumokat beszélteti, ő maga nem fűz hozzájuk értelmező, minősítő kommentárokat. Éppen ezek a tények oszlatnak el azonban olyan legendákat, amelyeket elsősorban a családtagok maguk híreszteltek el magukról, így többek közt a politikai tisztánlátás és következetesség illúzióját, valamint a családi harmónia ködét.
Dinoszaurusz-menhely 2.
Egyetlen hiba fenekestül felforgatta a dinoszauruszok sorsát.
Amikor fény derült arra, hogy a dinoszauruszok mégsem pusztultak ki teljesen, egy csapásra elvarázsolták az emberiséget. Egészen addig tartott a láz, amíg egy katasztrofális baleset a kihalás szélére nem sodorta a dinómániát... Kaidou, aki saját szemével látta az eseményeket, végre megnyílik és elmeséli mi történt, így az újonc Suma Suzume jobban rálát a tragédiára és munkatársa múltjára, mint valaha is hitte volna.
De persze a lánynak akad más dolga is. Amikor épp nem a sötét múlttal foglalkozik, jöhet a válságkezelés, egy piciny Troodon felnevelése vagy egy szépkorú T-rex születésnapi partija... a Dinolandben egyetlen nap sem unalmas!
A teljesen egyedi, nagy sikert aratott manga-sorozat megalkotásában a mangaka Itaru Kinoshita segítségére volt Dr. Shin-ichi Fujiwara paleontológus is, aki a dinoszauruszokkal kapcsolatos tudományos háttérre figyelt, így izgalmasan, de egyben tudományos alapossággal bemutatva láthatjuk a dinók és a kihívásokkal küzdő rezervátum hétköznapjait.

Just how many deaths does it take to close a holiday park?

There are sightings of a mysterious figure walking along the clifftops at night and Lacy can’t shake off the feeling that she’s being watched. Could there be some truth to the stories?

The Mbappe Project
Kylian Mbappé is a global football superstar. A world champion at the age of nineteen in Russia, the World Cup's Golden Boot four years later in Qatar, the first player to score a hat-trick in a World Cup final since Geoff Hurst in 1966, the winner of twelve major honours with Paris Saint-Germain. Mbappé is still only 26, wears the shirt of Real Madrid and is captain of France's national team. At its core this book tells the ascent of a child of immigrants who rose to become the world's best player. But Mbappé's story is far more - his ascent was planned from the beginning, in a way no other sports career had been orchestrated before. Kylian Mbappé's trajectory was mapped out from a very early age by his family, with the player's full consent. For Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, the brand was developed as a consequence of their exceptional playing achievements. For Mbappé, the plan was in place before he'd played a minute of football with his first professional club, AS Monaco. He was only six years old when Nike knocked on his parents' door and gave him his first sponsorship contract. His name was trademarked worldwide before he'd won his first cap for France. Every move, every decision has been calculated from the outset. Yes, Mbappé is a generational talent, and an exceptionally smart individual who looks as much at ease at the Elysée palace as on the pitch. But what truly sets him apart is that he is not just a sportsman: he is a project. This book tells that story for the first time.
Working For Each Other
The way we work is radically changing, due to advancements in technology, shifting work norms, changes to the landscape of labour policy, and unprecedented global events, like the Covid-19 pandemic. As the changes have played out with increasing speed and intensity, in public and in private spheres, many have questioned whether work is something we need to do at all. After all, much work has become bad. Many forms of it are physically dangerous, psychologically harmful, dehumanizing, unfulfilling, or just plain bullshit. Much of it is underpaid and unfairly compensated. Many toil for much of their lives in jobs they dislike with little or nothing to show for it. The anti-work view argues – persuasively so – that humanity would be better off in a world without work. But while some forms of work can be very bad, there is much evidence to suggest that it can also be very good – perhaps even an essential component of people’s happiness and well-being. A person’s work can be the thing that gets them out of bed in the morning, fills them with a sense of purpose, and provides them with a social community, all while meeting their material and financial needs. Above all, work is a social activity: one that we do together with others, in response to their needs and our own, in the context of the institutions and structures that give shape to our social world. Working For Each Other challenges the anti-work narrative by proposing an alternative view: that work is not an individual necessity, but a social one. As an individual, people have certain needs that allow them to live and thrive in the world: things like food, shelter and resources. In the same way, our communities and societies have requirements – like infrastructure and essential services – that they can’t do without. Work is one of these fundamental collective needs: even if one does not work, someone else must. Recognising the role that work plays in how we communicate with each other about our contributions to our communities and societies can allow us to reimagine the promise of work to be part of a good life – in particular, a life shared with others.

The Woman in the Water
'Unputdownable' JOSEPH O'CONNOR'A roller coaster read' LIZ NUGENTTHEY WERE BEST FRIENDS. NOW THEY ARE MURDERER AND WITNESS. At the heart of the classic novel Rebecca lies a mystery ...

When Eleanor shoots her lover in a drunken rage, Pearl becomes the key witness in a scandalous murder trial. But she knows more than she's revealed - and with Eleanor behind bars, she sees a chance to escape her quiet desperation. Their connection, once rooted in friendship, is now warped by grief, envy and power. And Eleanor's reach is long. Set between 1930s London and the windswept Cornwall coast, this taut, gothic thriller dares to answer one of literature's abiding questions: in Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca, who is the woman in the water?'Dark, twisty and gripping' SAM BLAKE

Deficit
How can we create a better future - one that truly prioritises health and happiness?
For too long, economic thinkers have left out acts of care - written off as 'women's work' for centuries - from their calculations. The result? Terrible real-world consequences today: crumbling public services, struggling schools and care systems on the brink of collapse.
In Deficit, prominent Danish feminist Emma Holten reveals how and why this happened, and argues that the things that matter - doing homework with your child, checking in on loved ones, talking to a
colleague who doesn't seem well - might seem inconsequential, but are in fact the building blocks of the economy. Urgent and incisive, this is a call to rethink the economic value of care.
