As Zelda struggles with her simmering feelings toward the Tormentines, the devil appears to her one night in a motel parking lot. Can Puri Dai's love pull Zelda back from the brink and into a new future? The fate of her family depends on it.

The Opposites Game
AUTHOR OF FIVE POETRY COLLECTIONS • NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED AUTHOR, Brendan Constantine presents his newest collection, The Opposites Game. A playful and profound meditation on language, binaries, and the radical act of seeing each other more clearly. In his fifth collection of verse, The Opposites Game, poet Brendan Constantine inspires us to revel in the abundance of life by reckoning its many astonishments (and antonyms). Through a simple yet profound framework of odes, lists, memoirs, and classroom assignments, Constantine asks us to think critically about how we define and understand each other, urging us to look beyond simplistic binaries and engage with the deeper nuances of meaning. The Opposites Game is a powerful reminder of the intricate relationship between words and the realities they represent, and an invitation to explore the rich, beautiful, and often perilous terrain of human thought and emotion.

Okavango and the Source of Life
Follow intrepid explorer Steve Boyes as he leads the National Geographic Okavango Wilderness Project, documenting the little-known lakes and rivers flowing through central Africa to the vast Okavango, a region supporting the world’s largest elephant population as well as lions, cheetahs, and hundreds of bird species. For miles on end of twisting waterways and leech-filled swamps, Boyes and his fellow explorers pole their flatboats with only satellite imagery and hippo trails to guide them. Sometimes they must drag their boats through dense bush or mud-thick waters. An angry hippo threatens to overturn the caravan; swarms of bees dive-bomb explorers’ ears and eyelashes. In Angola, closed off by war for decades, the team tracks ghost elephants—a subspecies thought to have disappeared forever. By day they press on, by night they camp under the stars. Lions roar and hyenas howl in the distance. Locals become friends and fellow travelers—guardians of the rivers, sharing generational knowledge of these waters they call the “source of life.”With more than 100 photographs and maps, including a foreword by Prince Harry and portraits of local wisdom keepers, this beautiful book provides a glimpse of primeval wilderness still thriving on the planet—and the grit of explorers determined to preserve it.

Lidé ve tmě. Deníky z Terezína 1941-1943
Kniha Lidé ve tmě představuje unikátní soubor autentických deníkových záznamů, básní a povídek Pavla Fischla (později známého jako Gabriel Dagan), které vznikaly v letech 1941 až 1943 v protektorátní Praze a následně v terezínském ghettu. Tento literární poklad, který autorův syn Michael Dagan objevil až v roce 2023 v pozůstalosti svých rodičů patnáct let po otcově smrti, nabízí hluboký vhled do nejniternějších pocitů, úvah o sionismu i tvůrčích procesů mladého muže čelícího kruté realitě holokaustu. Publikace mj. uvádí na pravou míru historickou nepřesnost, kdy byl úryvek z Pavlova terezínského deníku v knize Motýli tady nežijí mylně připsán jeho jmenovci Petru Fischlovi, který zahynul v Osvětimi. Dílo tak slouží nejen jako cenné historické svědectví o životě v ghettu, ale i jako hold nezlomné lidské naději a síle uměleckého vyjádření, které Pavla doprovázelo i v jeho pozdějším životě významného izraelského dramatika a psychoterapeuta.

After her parents find themselves on the losing side of the war between the ruling Titans and the new Olympian Gods, Hekate is taken by her mother Asteria to the Underworld, where Styx and Hades agree to raise her. Meanwhile, Asteria is pursued across the world by Zeus and Poseidon and, to escape their clutches, transforms herself into an island in a stormy sea.
Orphaned and alone, Hekate grows up amongst the horrors and beauties of the Underworld, desperate to find her divine purpose and a sense of belonging in the land of the dead.
When she finally uncovers her powers and ascends to Goddess status, she realises that even the most powerful Olympians are terrified of her. But when immortal war breaks out again, threatening to destroy everything from Mount Olympus to the Underworld itself, the Goddess of witchcraft and necromancy is the only one who can bring the deadly conflict to an end...
Adolf Matura
Adolf Matura (1921-1979), výrazná osobnost československého sklářského umění a designu, se zásadně podílel na podobě užitkového a dekorativního skla padesátých až sedmdesátých let minulého století. Studoval v ateliéru profesora Karla Štipla na pražské Uměleckoprůmyslové škole. Po krátkém působení jako samostatný rytec skla začal v roce 1952 působit jako designér v Ústředním výtvarném středisku pro průmysl skla a jemné keramiky. Se svými návrhy se zúčastnil významných mezinárodních přehlídek užitého umění XI. Trienále v Miláně v roce 1957 a světové výstavy Expo 58 v Bruselu. Roku 1959 se stal vedoucím výtvarníkem oboru skla v nově vzniklém Ústavu bytové a oděvní kultury (ÚBOK) v Praze. Jako zkušený designér vytvořil množství návrhů foukaného, broušeného i hutně tvarovaného skla, především se ale zaměřil na sklo lisované, jehož vývoj progresivně ovlivnil jak z výtvarného, tak z technologického hlediska.
Kniha představuje Maturovu tvorbu od raných autorských ryteckých prací, které v letech 1957 až 1960 úspěšně reprezentovaly moderní československé sklo na mezinárodních výstavách užitého umění a skla, po sochařsky řešené lisované vázy z let šedesátých a sedmdesátých, jimiž podstatně ovlivnil a obohatil výtvarnou podobu sériové produkce užitkového i dekorativního skla.
Kniha vychází jako devátý svazek edice Design Profily Osobnosti.

Az ördög ölelésében
„Érzi, hogy valami mocorog benne. Nyújtózkodik, ágaskodik a démon. Felébredt a hosszú alvás után, és most áldozatra les. Vissza kell fognia, különben baj lesz.”
Egy nő Firenzébe érkezik, ahol találkozik egy férfival, és hamarosan egymásba szeretnek. Nem telik el sok idő, és mindketten hűtlenné válnak. A nő egyre inkább meg van győződve arról, hogy nem csupán egy erőszakos emberrel van dolga: a férfiban egy démon lakozik – ahogy benne is. Az ördög ölelésében felemelő, nyugtalanító és meglepően humoros, kíméletlenül pontos leírást ad a bántalmazó kapcsolatok világáról. Veszedelmesen sötét és misztikus történet, amely lélegzetelállító utazásra hív az ember legsötétebb énjébe.
Repetition : A Novel
In a Norwegian November, when it is dark at waking and dark at sleeping, a novelist in her sixties sits next to a teenaged girl at the opera, and through their padded jackets feels a dreadfully familiar tension conducted from the parents seated on her far side. She thinks back to her sixteenth year. The year she first got drunk and the year she first had sex with a boy.
A year of being circled by an anxious, hawkish mother and, at a notable distance, her silent father. The year her family made an unspoken decision, and an unspeakable sacrifice.
No Matter What
Can love draw them together . . . again?
Roz and Vin can't look each other in the eyes anymore, let alone share a bed. It's been a year since they survived a traumatic car accident and their marriage hasn't been the same.
But Roz has held out hope that they can fix things . . . until she discovers that Vin has signed a new lease.
So she does what any soon-to-be-divorced Manhattanite would do: she signs up for figure drawing class.
Ignoring Vin's impending move-out date would be a lot easier if he wasn't her best-friends brother - and if he hadn't just offered to let her draw him. After all, that's known to make a separation easier, right? Focus on every detail of your estranged spouse's body while drawing them in the nude?
But after the year they've spent avoiding each other, it feels good to see and be seen by one another again. As Roz works to capture the wholeness of the person she fell in love with, will they both be able to draw upon the feelings they buried deep inside to finally heal together?

Szláv boszorkányság
Az orosz varázslás az isteneknek, szellemeknek és természeti erőknek az átlagemberek életébe történő beavatkozásán, valamint ezen erők irányításán alapszik. Bizonyossággal mondhatom, hogy az oroszok századok óta alkalmazzák a varázslást céljaik elérése érdekében. A varázslás szerves részét képezte az őseink által gyakorolt pogány hagyományoknak, e varázslás célját pedig az élet megsegítése, a gyógyítás, valamint a negatív energiáktól való megszabadulás jelentette. Őseink mindenféle varázslást alkalmaztak – az igéktől és bűbájoktól kezdve az üzleti és harci sikereket eredményező ráolvasásokig. Az orosz varázslás a pogányság és kereszténység szintézise. Máig élnek olyanok, akik a pogány ünnepségek megtartása mellett keresztény szent napokon varázsolnak. Ma is léteznek csomókra való suttogással átkozó vagy gyógyító boszorkányok. A varázslók valóban rendkívüli dolgokra képesek.
