Rob to ako zviera
Kniha Rob to ako zviera sa venuje ľudskej sexualite prostredníctvom pohľadu na sexuálne správanie vybraných živočíšnych druhov. Vychádza z predpokladu, že sexualita nie je výlučne kultúrnym alebo morálnym konštruktom, ale hlboko zakorenenou súčasťou biologického sveta, v ktorom existuje mimoriadna rozmanitosť stratégií, rituálov a vzťahových modelov. Jednotlivé kapitoly opisujú párenie a intímne správanie konkrétnych živočíšnych druhov a paralelne k nim ponúkajú pohľad na ľudské sexuálne a vzťahové správanie v porovnateľnom kontexte.

Vražda v Ardith Hall
Při seanci, kterou v honosném sídle Ardith Hall pořádá paní Tarrantová, za velmi podivných okolností umírá jeden z pozvaných hostů. Inspektor Daniel Haze a lord Jason Redmond brzy zjišťují, že mají co do činění s pečlivě naplánovanou podlou vraždou. Mezi hlavní podezřelé se okamžitě zařadí ti, kteří s obětí seděli kolem stolu a toho osudného večera doufali, že se jim podaří navázat kontakt se zesnulými blízkými. Jednou z nich je k velkému údivu pana inspektora Haze i jeho manželka Sarah.
Seznam potenciálních pachatelů se s každým dnem rozrůstá, ale motiv, tedy klíč k celé záhadě, je stále v nedohlednu.
Jak se Daniel vypořádá s nepříjemnou situací, kdy musí podezřívat i svou nejbližší? Zvládne – i přes svůj střet zájmů – ve spolupráci s Jasonem při komplikovaném pátrání odhalit totožnost vraha a dopadnout ho? Redmonda a Haze čeká další zapeklitý případ.

Hosťovanie Jimiho Hendrixa vo Ľvove
„To najzaujímavejšie v živote je sám život," povedal v jednom rozhovore Andrej Kurkov. V románe Hosťovanie Jimiho Hendrixa vo Ľvove sa prelína realita s fikciou. Nad vnútrozemským mestom Ľvov lietajú čajky a občas tam vonia more. Bývalí hippies v sprievode bývalého kapitána KGB sa schádzajú na cintoríne pri hrobe, v ktorom je pochovaná dlaň ich veľkého vzoru, slávneho amerického rockového speváka a gitaristu Jimiho Hendrixa. V noci sa po starodávnych uliciach preháňa staré zahraničné auto a šofér Taras lieči ľudí, ktorých trápia obličkové kamene. Kniha plná humoru a nekonvenčných spoločenských aj ľúbostných zápletiek.
Čo ťa trápi
Autorka bestselleru denníka New York Times a držiteľka National Book Award za román Priateľ svojím osobitým hlasom rozpráva príbeh o zmysle života a smrti a o hodnote spolupatričnosti.
Rozprávačka opisuje sériu stretnutí s rôznymi ľuďmi v každodennom prúde života: s bývalým partnerom, na ktorého náhodne natrafí na verejnom podujatí; s majiteľkou bytu na Airbnb, ktorá nevie komunikovať so svojimi hosťami; s neznámym mužom hľadajúcim pomoc, pretože netuší, ako utešiť svoju starú matku; s priateľkou z mladosti, hospitalizovanou s nevyliečiteľnou rakovinou. Pri všetkých rozpoznáva spoločnú potrebu – túžbu hovoriť o sebe a mať poslucháča. Rozprávačka tieto hlasy väčšinou trpezlivo prijíma, až kým ju jedna z postáv nepožiada o niečo naozaj mimoriadne a veľmi osobné.
V románe Čo ťa trápi prináša Sigrid Nunez múdrosť, humor a prenikavým pohľadom skúma ľudské interakcie či podobu vzťahov v našej dobe. Prekvapivý príbeh o empatii a neobyčajných spôsoboch, akými si ľudia dokážu navzájom pomôcť v ťažkých chvíľach, ponúka dojímavý a podnetný portrét dnešného sveta.
Knihu v roku 2024 sfilmoval Pedro Almodóvar pod názvom Vedľajšia izba s Tildou Swinton a Julianne Moore v hlavných úlohách.

Exmanželka
Keď sa moderné manželstvo rozpadne, začína sa skutočný príbeh.
New York, rok 1924. Peter a Patricia majú všetko, čo má mať moderná dvojica: obaja pracujú, pijú koktaily, fajčia cigarety a veria v úprimnosť dokonca aj v otázke vernosti, až kým v ňu jeden z nich veriť neprestane.
Patricia, úspešná reklamná copywriterka, sa po rozvode ocitá sama v meste tajných barov počas prohibície, nočných klubov a nekonečných večierkov. Začína odznova – tentoraz ako exmanželka. Medzi rannými aspirínmi, návštevami telocvične a rozhovormi s priateľmi sa pokúša pochopiť, čo znamená byť slobodnou ženou v dobe, keď sa sukne síce skracujú, ale pravidlá stále píšu muži.
Román sa po anonymnom vydaní v roku 1929 okamžite stal bestsellerom a škandalizoval džezový vek. Ursula Parrott v ňom s chladnou presnosťou a bolestnou úprimnosťou zachytáva nielen pulzujúci Manhattan, ale aj tiché izby, lekárske ordinácie, osamelé rána a krehké nádeje.
Drsný, inteligentný a prekvapivo súčasný román o láske, strate, ženských ilúziách a odvahe začať znova.

Choroba, ktorá nebola
Choroba, ktorá nebola je román o sile predstavivosti a detstva. O zostupe do temných vrstiev vlastného vnútra a o návrate k svetlému prameňu, ku ktorému sa – ak chceme – dokážeme vrátiť. Tak ako sa to darí holubom, ktoré vždy nájdu cestu späť.
Svet sa niekedy zdá rozdelený na tých, ktorí konajú a nenechajú sa vystrašiť, a na ľudí s tichou bolesťou ukrytou pod kožou. Pre Lorisa sa všetko začalo v detstve, v lete plnom čara, v záhrade starého otca. Práve tam sa jeho úzkosti rozplývali, tam sa učil stavať voliéry a chovať holuby.
Dnes má Loris tridsať rokov, čítanie sa stalo jeho povolaním, žije v meste a má priateľku Jo. Práca vo vydateľstve je však neistá, tlak dospelosti drvivý a úzkosť zlyhania ho postupne pohlcuje. Loris sa začína uzatvárať do seba: najprv z obrany, neskôr preto, aby načúval varovným signálom vlastného tela. Vnútri sa usídľuje neurčitá choroba, bez diagnózy, no schopná odniesť so sebou všetky zvyšky nádeje. Keď sa lekári, partnerka aj rodičia vzďaľujú, zostávajú mu už len dvaja spojenci: sociálne siete, ktoré živia jeho fantómy, a Katastrofa – premenlivá bytosť, raz mačka, raz vlčica, raz priateľka či nevesta, zvodná a posmešná sprievodkyňa jeho najťažších chvíľ.
Giulia Caminito sa vracia k sebe samej a k svojej generácii, ktorá nezažila vojny ani hmotný nedostatok, no zdedila samotu siete a neistotu. Jej presná, úsporná próza sa tu otvára prekvapivo snovej atmosfére. Hypochondria sa mení na nezabudnuteľnú protagonistku a medzi mestskými blokmi vyrastá temný les, v ktorom sa pohybujú naše najintímnejšie a najbolestnejšie skúsenosti.

Kulturní (dis)kontinuity v českém pohraničí
Východočeské pohraničí bývá často líčeno jako kraj „přerušené paměti“ a ztracených kořenů. Tato kolektivní monografie však nabízí jiný pohled. Představuje Krkonoše, Podkrkonoší, Broumovsko i další oblasti jako dynamický prostor, kde se minulost a přítomnost neustále prolínají – jako místo setkávání, výměny i napětí.
Zásadním zlomem vývoje byla poválečná depopulace spojená s vysídlením německého obyvatelstva a následným dosídlováním. Znamenal tento proces skutečně přerušení kulturní kontinuity? Autoři knihy ukazují, že odpověď není jednoznačná. I v prostředí hlubokých demografických změn mohou kulturní vzorce přetrvávat, proměňovat se nebo znovu vznikat.
Prostřednictvím historických, antropologických i sociologických přístupů publikace sleduje vztah mezi populačními proměnami a kulturním přenosem. Zaměřuje se na paměť krajiny, každodenní život obyvatel, roli institucí i způsoby, jimiž různé skupiny „čtou“ minulost a dávají jí nový význam.
Kniha tak překonává zjednodušující obraz pohraničí jako „vykořeněného“ prostoru a ukazuje jej jako mnohovrstevnatý region, v němž se historická zkušenost nestírá, ale znovu interpretuje – a stává se součástí současných identit.
Quirky Sheffield
Sheffield grew rapidly during the Industrial Revolution to become one of the largest cities in the country by the nineteenth century. It was best known for its cutlery industry, producing stainless steel locally, and its steel and coal industries played a vital role in the war effort in the Second World War, leading to the city being targeted by German aerial bombardment. Despite the industrialisation, Sheffield has more green spaces than most cities in Britain and more trees per head of population than any other city in Europe. Lying on the edge of the Peak District, many streets climb into the hills with views beyond the city boundaries.Drawing on archive material as well as his own, extensive, local knowledge Robert Nicholls presents a fresh look at Sheffield - from a slightly different angle – as he delves into lesser known but fascinating tales from the city’s past. Quirky Sheffield celebrates the unusual and often strange history of Sheffield and its characters over the years. This fascinating insight into Sheffield will be of interest to all those who want to know more about the city’s quirky history.
South Wales: A National Bus Company
South Wales Transport, as a National Bus Company, served a large and diverse area of South West Wales, from Port Talbot in the east, throughout the industrial Swansea Valley and City, and out across rural West Wales to the remote Pembrokeshire coast. It had grown following National Bus Company’s acquisition of BET/THC bus companies in South Wales. With the resulting overlapping areas of services, NBC reorganised its operations and from January 1971 South Wales Transport took control of United Welsh Services, Thomas Brothers (Port Talbot) and Neath & Cardiff Luxury Coaches. In 1972 Western Welsh services from Neath and Haverfordwest were also transferred to South Wales Transport, leaving Western Welsh only operating to the east of South Wales Transport. The outcome of these four acquisitions was a fascinating and diverse fleet, a rich mix of BTC and BET vehicles, an early user of Minibuses, Inter-urban joint coach services and the well-known AEC Regents, including the short version for Gower services. In this book you are taken on a fascinating pictorial journey back to the 1970s and early 1980s when De Cymru Poppy Red buses could still be seen climbing steeply up to Townhill from the centre of Swansea, through the industrial Lower Swansea Valley and to the far distant rural lanes around Haverfordwest.
British Airways in 100 Objects
British Airways has an almost unique history. Spanning over a century from the first flight of Aircraft Transport and Travel Ltd from London to Paris in 1919 to the modern fuel-efficient aircraft of its current fleet, British Airways has proudly connected Britain to the World and the World to Britain. Over that journey through the rapidly evolving early years of pioneering aviation, taking days to cross continents with biplanes and seaplanes, through the post-war piston-engine luxury, the iconic jet age of the fabulous Boeing 707 and 747, the supersonic marvel of Concorde into the modern era of travel, British Airways has seen many historic events and carried literally billions of customers. Along the way that journey has generated vast amounts of treasured items, many of which are now displayed or stored at British Airways headquarters near Heathrow in its truly incredible museum, the Speedbird Centre. Much of the archive has true national importance and is kept as part of the nation’s heritage. From simple in-flight mementos to the Olympic torch, the items featured in this book represent just a flavour of that collection and bring decades of flight to life.
The Latecomer's Rise
In The Latecomer's Rise, Muyang Chen reveals the nature and impact of a rapidly growing form of international lending: Chinese development finance. Over the past few decades, China has become the world's largest provider of bilateral development finance. Through its two national policy banks, the China Development Bank (CDB) and the Export-Import Bank of China (China Exim), it has funded infrastructure and industrial projects in numerous emerging markets and developing countries. Yet this very surge and magnitude of capital has raised questions about the characteristics of Chinese bilateral lending and its repercussions on the international order. Drawing on a variety of novel Chinese primary sources, including interviews and official bank documents, Chen pinpoints the distinctiveness of Chinese bilateral development finance, explains its origins, and analyzes its effects. She compares Chinese policy banks with their foreign counterparts to show that the CDB and China Exim, while state-supported, are in fact also market-oriented - they are as much government organs as they are profit-driven financial agencies that serve both state and firms' interests. This approach, which emerged out of China's particular economic history, suggests that Chinese overseas lending is not merely a tool of economic statecraft that challenges Western-led economic regimes. Instead, China's responses to extant rules, norms, and practices across given issue areas have varied between contestation and convergence. Rich with empirical detail and penetrating insights, The Latecomer's Rise demystifies the little-known workings of Chinese development finance to revise our conceptions of China's role in the international financial system.
Newham at Work
The London Borough of Newham was created in 1965 by the merger of the County Borough Councils of East Ham and West Ham. At first, industry was concentrated on the banks of the river Lea (or Lee). The coming of the railways coupled with the rise of new technologies in the Victorian era, and legislation prohibiting many of the smellier and noisier industries from operating within London led to the rapid growth of industry and population within Newham from the 1840s onwards. The area grew rich from industry, with famous names such as Tate & Lyle and Trebor Sweets, railway engineering at Stratford and the docks. Marshland south of Plaistow and East Ham was drained to create the docks and the industrial areas of Canning Town and Silvertown, the latter named after a local entrepreneur. Much of this industry fell into decline from the late twentieth century. When the docks closed in 1981 and relocated to Tilbury, the London Docklands Development Corporation was set up to regenerate the Docklands area with London City Airport and a new University of East London campus taking their place, and retail became the major employer in the area.Newham at Work explores the working life of this borough in London and its people and the industries that have characterised it through the years. The book will appeal to all those with an interest in the history of Newham.
Southdown Bristol REs
Southdown Motor Services, the acclaimed South Coast operator with their instantly recognisable green-and-cream livery, were loyal Leyland customers for many years. They took delivery of their first Bristol RE buses in early 1968, further deliveries in 1969 and 1971 and inherited thirteen following the take-over of Brighton Hove and District, bringing the fleet total to eighty-five.The first batch of Bristol REs were forty-five-seaters with Marshall bodywork delivered between April and July in 1968. The second batch, seating forty-nine, also had Marshall bodies and were delivered from April 1969 onward. These buses were fitted with Gardner engines at the rear and Southdown specified manual gear boxes in both batches. Unpopular with some drivers and on some routes, they were nevertheless part of the history of the company. Nine Marshall-bodied examples were added to the fleet in 1971. These were semi-automatic, with Leyland supplying the engine, and were powerful and easier to drive than their earlier counterparts. Three more arrived that year featuring more conventional Eastern Coach Works bodies. Those acquired from Brighton Hove and District had Gardner engines, semi-automatic gearboxes and twin-door Eastern Coach Works bodies.Simon Stanford details Southdown’s Bristol REs with previously unpublished images and detailed captions. Three buses survive, regularly attending shows and rallies in the South East, and are also pictured here.
Anne Boleyn's First Love
In the Tudor court, love blossomed when Henry Percy met Anne Boleyn. However, their romance was abruptly torn apart by Cardinal Wolsey, who chastised Percy, an earl’s son, for choosing to marry the daughter of a mere knight. Despite a spirited defence, Percy was ordered to no longer see her. Percy was forced into marrying Mary Talbot, daughter of the fourth Earl of Shrewsbury. The loveless match proved acrimonious and bitter, culminating in Mary accusing her husband of trying to poison her. After a quarrel in which Percy, now sixth Earl of Northumberland, mentioned his betrothal to Anne Boleyn, Mary wrote to her father to warn King Henry VIII that her husband and Anne had been precontracted, hoping to stop the king marrying her. But there was more to Henry Percy than being Anne’s first love. Though often ill, he executed all the rough and arduous duties of Scottish border warfare, proving to be a strong and effective Warden of the North. His was a full life, though not a particularly happy one. In June 1537, aged thirty-five and old before his time, he died poor and ostensibly alone. He was buried on the same day he died, the crown denying him even the usual aristocratic funeral. In the first full-length biography of this fascinating man, Jan-Marie Knights tells a story of love, duty and loss.

Marvels: The Novelization
For the first time, a novelization of Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross' bestselling and now classic miniseries from 1994-Marvels, offering an thrilling all-new interpretation of one of the most famous stories in Marvel Comics history.
Welcome to New York. Here, burning figures roam the streets, men in brightly colored costumes scale the glass and concrete walls, creatures from space threaten to devour our world . . . and everyone else is going about their lives.
This is the Marvel Universe, where the ordinary and fantastic interact daily. This is the world of Marvels-one of the most important and bestselling stories in Marvel Comics history, which Stan Lee described in his introduction to the first collected edition as "innovative, brilliantly conceived, and skillfully executed."
Over 30 years later, Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross' groundbreaking comic book series Marvels gets a long-awaited novelization by Steve Darnall, author of Uncle Sam and Ross's writing partner on the original proposal.
Marvels was a landmark series when it was first published-peeling back the curtain on Marvel's history. It's a story told from the perspective of an everyman character-news photographer Phil Sheldon-who chronicles a world full of costumed superhumans, providing an on-the-ground view of events in the Marvel Universe as they unfold. Darnall's prose perfectly captures the magic of Busiek and Ross' original story, offering insights and background previously untold in the comic book.
Tying the story together in a stunning package is an all-new painted cover, four all-new color illustrations, and four all-new black-and-white illustrations by Alex Ross, as well as an all-new afterword by Ross.
