The Crystal Vase
A road-trip across Europe and back in time: the debut graphic memoir from the prize-winning author of A Funeral In Freiburg.
When her imperious, chain-smoking German Jewish grandmother dies, it falls to Astrid and her father to drive a hire van to the Black Forest and collect the family heirlooms from Gisela's nicotine-stained apartment.
In Freiburg, they are faced with several lifetimes' worth of belongings to sort through - infested Persian rugs, mysterious photographs, a toy monkey that started a marriage - and a grasping landlord, impatient to renovate.
As the list of demands from uncles, sisters and cousins grows longer, the rabbit-holes of history and memory grow deeper. Long-buried secrets and tales of survival are revealed - from Nazi Germany to colonial Africa - and old feuds are reignited, as father and daughter struggle with the responsibility of preserving the family legacy. More importantly, will they be able to fit everything into a medium wheel-base transit van?
Funny, bittersweet and beautifully drawn, The Crystal Vase is an odyssey of family arguments, identity crises, and late discoveries.
Operation Paperclip
In this engrossing and deeply disturbing exposé from the bestselling author of Nuclear War: A Scenario, Annie Jacobsen tells the gripping story of a decades-long, covert project to bring Hitler's scientists and their families to the United States.
In the chaos following the Second World War, the US government faced a critical decision: what to do with the great scientific minds of the Third Reich. Many were accused of war crimes, and others had stood trial at Nuremberg; one was convicted of mass murder. Nevertheless, the US government secretly decided that their knowledge of rocketry and medical advances were vital to the outcome of the Cold War.
Drawing on exclusive interviews with dozens of Paperclip family members, colleagues, and interrogators, and dossiers discovered in archives across the world, Annie Jacobsen follows more than a dozen German scientists through their postwar lives and into one of the most startling, complex, nefarious, and jealously guarded government secrets of the twentieth century.

In the spring of 1995, Nate Cartwright is at a loose end: his parents are dead, his older brother has disowned him and he's been fired from his job. Looking for a sense of direction, he returns to his family's summer cabin in Oregon.
The cabin should be empty - but it's not. Inside is a man named Alex and an extraordinary little girl who calls herself Artemis Darth Vader. There's far more to Art than meets the eye. But as Nate and Alex bond over just how special she truly is, they discover that powerful forces are closing in - forces that want nothing more than to control her . . .
There's nothing more human than a broken heart.

My Next Breath
'What a journey to wisdom ... a must read' - Robert Downey Jr
The gripping and inspiring story of acclaimed actor Jeremy Renner's near-fatal accident, and what he learned about inner strength, endurance and hope as he overcame insurmountable odds to recover, one breath at a time.
Two-time Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner was the second most googled person in 2023… and not for his impressive filmography. His searing portrayals on film ranged from an Iraq-based army bomb technician in The Hurt Locker and a Boston bank robber in The Town to a crooked Camden mayor in American Hustle before he became heir to the Jason Bourne franchise (The Bourne Legacy). Amongst other iconic roles, he also captured hearts as fan-favorite comic book marksman Hawkeye in seven Marvel films.
Yet, his otherworldly success on-screen faded to the periphery when a fourteen-thousand-pound snowplow crushed him on New Year's Day 2023. Somehow able to keep breathing for more than half an hour, he was subsequently rushed to the ICU, after which he would face multiple surgeries and months of painful rehabilitation.
In this debut memoir, Jeremy writes in blistering detail about his accident and the aftermath. This retelling is not merely a gruesome account of what happened to him; it's a call to action and a forged companionship between reader and author as Jeremy recounts his recovery journey and reflects on the impact of his suffering. Ultimately, Jeremy's memoir is a testament to the human spirit and its capacity to endure, evolve, and find purpose in the face of unimaginable adversity. His writing captures the essence of profound transformation, exploring the delicate interplay between vulnerability and strength, despair and hope, redemption and renewal.

Perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo, Laini Taylor and Sarah J. Maas, this new fantasy trilogy from Sunday Times bestselling author Julie Kagawa will sweep readers into a bold and exciting new world, where a twisted game of destiny has far-reaching consequences.
The Hourglass of Time waits for no one. Not even the Deathless Kings can turn back the sands once they have fallen.
Seventeen-year-old Sparrow has no family other than the Thieves Guild. They found her, an orphan on the streets of Kovass, and gave her a home, training, and a purpose. Ever since, Sparrow's sole focus has been proving herself to the guild.
But the guild and the mysterious Circle that controls them are more than simple criminals. They work to bring back the reign of the Deathless Kings, the godlike sorcerers who once ruled over the world. In Sparrow they believe they have found the key to turning back the sands of time.
Betrayed by those closest to her, Sparrow must turn to Raithe - the enigmatic yet alluring assassin sent to eliminate her - to escape the Guild's shadowy plots. What ensues is a death-defying adventure that takes Sparrow far from home, across the Dust Sea, and into the trackless desert where she will discover that it's not only her own fate that rests in her hands - but also the fate of the world entire.

Over Work
Workers across all demographics, industries, and socioeconomic levels report exhaustion, burnout, and the wish for more meaningful lives.
Drawing on years of research, Brigid Schulte traces the arc of our discontent from a time before the 1980s, when work was more compatible with well-being and many jobs enabled a single earner to support a family, until today, with millions of people working multiple hourly jobs or in white-collar positions where no hours are ever off duty.

Prečo si pamätáme
Pamäť je oveľa viac než len záznam minulosti. V tejto prelomovej knihe o mysli a mozgu jeden z popredných svetových výskumníkov pamäti odhaľuje silnú funkciu, ktorú má pamäť takmer v každom aspekte nášho života – od zapamätania si tvárí a mien cez učenie, rozhodovanie až po traumu a uzdravovanie.
Najnovší vedecký výskum prináša nový pohľad na našu pamäť. V knihe Prečo si pamätáme neurovedecký priekopník a psychológ Charan Ranganath radikálne prehodnocuje spôsob, akým vnímame každodenné spomínanie. V kombinácii zrozumiteľného jazyka a najmodernejšieho výskumu ukazuje prekvapivé spôsoby, akými náš mozog zaznamenáva minulosť a ako tieto informácie používame na pochopenie toho, kým sme v prítomnosti, a na predstavovanie si a plánovanie vlastnej budúcnosti.
Ako ukazuje Dr. Ranganath, pamäť je vysoko transformačná sila, ktorá ovplyvňuje, ako prežívame svet, často neviditeľným a niekedy aj deštruktívnym spôsobom. Poznanie týchto mechanizmov nám môže pomôcť pri každodenných úlohách, ako je hľadanie kľúčov, ale aj pri vyrovnávaní sa so stratou pamäti v staršom veku. Navyše, keď pracujeme v súlade so schopnosťou mozgu učiť sa a nanovo interpretovať minulé udalosti, môžeme liečiť traumu, zbavovať sa predsudkov, učiť sa rýchlejšie a rozvíjať si sebauvedomenie.
V knihe nájdete fascinujúce štúdie a príklady z popkultúry. Ranganath čerpá aj zo svojho života vedca, otca a dieťaťa prisťahovalcov. Prečo si pamätáme je strhujúce čítanie, ktoré odhaľuje skrytú úlohu pamäti naprieč naším životom. Keď porozumieme jej sile a zvláštnostiam, dokážeme sa prehrýzť balastom a pamätať si to, čo si pamätať chceme. Budeme schopní sa rozhodovať slobodnejšie a plánovať šťastnejšiu budúcnosť.
Země hojnosti
Kniha poeticky nazvaná Sen o zemi hojnosti se zaobírá problematikou fantaskních představ pozdně středověkých lidí, intelektuálů, šlechticů, měšťanů i obyčejných sedláků, o světě, v němž panuje dostatek a nadbytek, o světě věčného mládí, kde lidé nestárnou a nic je nebolí. Jejím ústředním tématem je svět naruby, v němž má vše podobu dokonalého opaku. Na místo hladu zde létají pečená prasata a grilované husy přímo do pusy, v potocích teče pivo a víno, vařené ryby vyskakují rovnou na talíř. Knihu Hermana Pleije je možné číst jako protipól vůči slavnému Podzimu středověku Johana Huizingy. Jestliže u Huizingy dominuje dvorská, burgundská kultura s jejími jinotaji, pak u Pleije hraje prim zemitá lidová kultura, v níž je vše dovoleno a v níž se lidé oddávají snům hlavně proto, aby se člověk alespoň na chvíli dokázal přenést přes každodenní strasti.
