Backstage Confidential
Backstage Confidential lifts the curtain on West End Theatre from a viewpoint rarely heard: the wings. Beginning his career at seventeen, Eden Phillips rose to become London’s youngest head flyman before veering into acting, writing and publishing — yet always remained an observer of the theatre’s hidden world. With warmth and wit, he evokes backstage work in the 1960s and ’70s: rigging sets, working the flys, operating revolves and tackling the countless unseen tasks that keep a show running. Along the way he encounters an array of theatrical greats, from Sir Noël Coward, Sir John Gielgud and Dame Judi Dench to directors Hal Prince and Harold Pinter. A lively, humorous and affectionate insider’s glimpse into a golden age of British theatre.

Kvízkérdéseket megoldani jóval több, mint egyszerű kikapcsolódás: kinek szórakozás, kinek játék, kinek sport, kinek szenvedély, kinek mindez együtt. Ugyanezt elmondhatjuk a labdarúgásról is, kiegészítve azzal, hogy a foci mindemellett stratégiák egymásnak feszülése, labdával vívott háború, ihletett pillanatokban pedig nagybetűs Művészet.

Melyik edzőt szokás a Special One, azaz a Különleges néven emlegetni? Melyik az egyetlen válogatott, amelyik részt vett minden eddigi világbajnokságon? Ki szerezte 2026-ig a legtöbb gólt a Bajnokok Ligájában? Melyik magyar játékos lőtt gólt a franciáknak a 2020-as Európa-bajnokságon? Hányszor lépett pályára az Aranycsapat a klasszikus Grosics - Buzánszky, Lóránt, Lantos - Bozsik, Zakariás - Budai II., Kocsis, Hidegkuti, Puskás, Czibor felállásban?
Ilyen és ezekhez hasonló kérdésekkel találkozhatunk a Géniusz Focikvíz-t forgatva. A könyv sokszínű feladványait fejthetjük egyedül, ha szeretnénk megtudni magunkról, Messi vagy Ronaldo pályafutását ismerjük-e jobban, de játszhatunk párban vagy csapatokban is, ha kíváncsiak vagyunk, ki tud többet a Liverpoolról, a stadionok világáról, a vb-k és Eb-k emlékezetes pillanatairól vagy a magyar válogatottról.

Sublimation
What would you sacrifice for a different life?
When you emigrate, you leave a version of yourself behind. Literally. One instance crosses the border; the other instance stays trapped behind it.
Some instances keep in touch, call each other daily, synchronize their lives and minds in the hopes of reintegrating and resuming a life as one person. Other instances, like Soyoung Rose Kang, leave home at age ten and never speak to their other selves again.
With a life of her own in New York, Rose never imagined she’d return to Korea. Then her grandfather dies and Soyoung, her Korean instance, summons her home for the funeral. But Soyoung’s motives aren’t as innocent as Rose imagined, and the consequences of Rose’s return to Seoul will change her forever.
Sublimation is a story of doppelgängers and corporate intrigue, heartbreak and betrayal. Nebula Award-winning author Isabel J. Kim has written an immigrant tale like no other, capturing the longing for another life and twisting it into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse.

*The limited deluxe edition will include designed edges*
I already had a life. A future. A man I'd promised forever to.
But the night I found Chase Rhodes-bleeding, broken, and more lost than I was-everything changed.

What started as a quiet escape became something unstoppable. Our songs caught fire, and now the whole world knows our names.
Music has a way of pulling the broken together, even when the timing is impossible and the fallout inevitable.
But some hearts don't settle. Some songs were never meant to stay quiet.
Because the night I saved him was only the beginning.
And loving me might be the last risk he'll ever take.

This is Our Game
"Reminds me of why I love football - at its heart, it's a reflection of the communities that are built around it. A special book." - Jamie CarragherYou know when you’re in a Football City. The murals, the billboards, the graffiti, the colours on the bars and pubs. No two football cities are the same. That cross on the club badge, commemorating a 1st century fisherman martyr (Ajax). The ‘cemetery’ of graves dedicated to the club’s league rivals (Napoli). The guttural roar of fans chanting “Aupa Athletic, aupa Euskal Herria!” – a fierce declaration of Basque pride and identity, echoing through San Mamés like a battle cry (Bilbao). In a world of increasing corporate and homogenous sport, football cities preserve culture and exhibit the particular and the unique with glorious passion. Fandom in a football city is for everyone: for boys and girls, for elderly men and the infirm; for the fashionable, the outcasts and the hopeless: it gives their days meaning and clarity – it can unite divided cities and divide the otherwise united. This is Our Game is a celebration of these unique fan cultures. Part travel, part social history, giving voice to distinctive local experiences, revealing the atmospheres, attitudes, fables, fashions, tensions and triumphs of twenty-two unique places and communities across all continents. It was the Russian composer (and FC Zenit fan) Dmitri Shostakovich who said: “Football is the ballet of the masses.” This book takes us inside the dance.
