Katka už nebude divná


Autentický příběh o dospívání, hledání vlastní identity a cestě k sebepřijetí Skoro patnáctiletá Katka tráví většinu času sama a nejradši si čte. A taky ráda jí. Spolužáci ji mají za podivínku. Katka ale ví, že na gymplu bude všechno jinak, a hned po přijímačkách si dá předsevzetí: zhubnout. Zpočátku jde jen o snahu upravit životní styl, postupně se ale ukáže, že cesta k vysněnému „novému já“ není tak jednoduchá, jak si představovala. Touha po změně se Katce začne vymykat z rukou. Na gymplu se opravdu všechno změní — jen trochu jinak, než čekala. Autentický příběh o dospívání, hledání vlastní identity a cestě k sebepřijetí. Jednu z hlavních rolí v něm sice hraje anorexie, ale tím nejpodstatnějším jsou — jak už je u Petry Soukupové zvykem — mezilidské vztahy.

Tajemství abatyše z Assisi, 4. vydání


Pouť ke svatému Jakubovi do Compostely patří k vrcholným projevům křesťanské zbožnosti. Oldřich z Chlumu má však svých starostí tolik, že na něco takového nikdy nepomyslel. Jenže král Přemysl II. Otakar je jiného názoru. Nařídí, aby jeho prokurátor byl členem družiny, která na zbožné pouti doprovodí královu tetu abatyši Anežku. A ještě rozmrzelejší je Oldřich ve chvíli, kdy se dozví, že společnici má Anežce dělat během cesty Světlana, dcera purkrabího Viléma z Landštejna. Ještě než překročí hranice království, dojde k první vraždě. V blízkosti poutníků se začínají pohybovat papežovi vyslanci, tajemní templáři i zvědové francouzského krále. A tehdy se Anežka Oldřichovi přizná, že k pouti ji nevedly jen zbožné úmysly. Před svou smrtí jí slovutná abatyše Klára z Assisi napsala o znepokojivém podezření. Návrat odmítá, a tak malá družina pokračuje v cestě za tajemstvím, jehož odhalení musí mnozí vykoupit svou krví.

Uprostřed konce


Libor Prudký je znám jako sociolog. Teprve v pozdním věku se začal věnovat poesii, sbírka Uprostřed konce, v pořadí třetí, je dílo vyzrálé a neobvyklé. Konečnost života, účtování, vnímání Boží přítomnosti a blízkosti smrti jsou témata, která nejenže nerezonují v soudobé české poesii ale byla vytlačena i z běžného života.

Váha ticha

Svébytně lyrickým ztvárněním a nadčasovým námětem vytváří jedinečný a mimořádně působivý portrét současného Lisabonu a Toulonu. Tento impozantní Román, jenž upoutal pozornost i za hranicemi Rakouska, je zde předložen českým čtenářům ve výtečném překladu Markéty Klikové, která za překlady jeho děl byla dvakrát oceněna Překladatelskou prémií udílenou rakouským Spolkovým ministerstvem pro bydlení, umění, kulturu, média a sport. Když Oliver přijíždí do Lisabonu navštívit svou babičku, je už dospělý muž. Ovšem jako by to bylo snad včera, kdy tu v dětství trávil dny. Vzpomíná na svého dědečka, který kdysi v Lisabonu znovu našel štěstí. S dědečkem, kterého vídeňská rodina zavrhla, Olivera spojuje nejen původ, ale také láska k literatuře, a i jemu se město otevírá se všemi svými barvami a jazyky, i on se v Lisabonu cítí jako doma. Jednoho dne potká mladou ženu, které kdysi ublížil, a jeho život nabere nečekaný zvrat.

Life in Fragments


A powerful and personal memoir that tells the real story behind the headlines of how two people got caught up in a struggle against Putin's regime - one that continues today.The photo of Alexander Litvinenko lying on his deathbed in November 2006, poisoned by polonium, caused shockwaves around the world. But how did it come to this? And why are the lessons he provided still important now, twenty years on? In Marina Litvinenko's compelling new memoir, A Life in Fragments, we find out exactly why and discover the inspirational personal story behind the public tragedy.Marina met the man who would change her life on her thirty-first birthday; she was a dancer while he was an agent in the Russian security services. They fell in love and soon had a son, Anatoly. But Russia in the 1990s was a difficult place in which to live a happy family life; soon, Alexander was uncovering corruption at the heart of the state in the aftermath of the communist era. His fearless investigations led to his arrest and imprisonment on false charges; eventually the Litvinenkos had to escape the country, seeking political asylum in the UK.Litvinenko remained an outspoken critic of Putin's regime, which could not be tolerated. His murder left Marina seeking justice for her husband, but she was obstructed every step of the way by Russia. Even the British government appeared reluctant to hold Russia to account, and it wasn't until 2016 that a public inquiry finally confirmed it had been a 'state sponsored murder'. Marina had won her battle, providing hope to all those who continue to fight to reveal the crimes of Putin's regime and to deliver justice for the victims.

The Queens Pirate


In June 1593, a ghostly ship drifted into an Irish harbour. Only 16 crewmen remained alive, and the deck was littered with the dead.This was the melancholy homecoming of the ship Desire, one of a fleet of five that had left England two years before, fuelled by dreams of Spanish gold and the glory of exploring the globe. The expedition's captain, thirty-one-year-old Thomas Cavendish, had been lost in the South Atlantic and was presumed dead: a victim of disease, mutiny, and an excess of ambition.Yet just five years earlier, in 1588, things had been very different. Cavendish had returned aboard the Desire triumphant from circumnavigating the world in record time, having taken a Manila galleon and secured the largest haul of treasure ever to fall into English hands. Cavendish sailed the Desire to Greenwich and paid homage to Queen Elizabeth I, staging a lavish banquet for her on board.In The Queen's Pirate, Iain Gately traces the career of this remarkable Elizabethan mariner from spectacular triumphs to great betrayals and an ill-fated final voyage. Gately expertly steers readers through Cavendish's tempestuous life, as he crafts the first biography of an unjustly neglected Elizabethan hero.

The Great Global Transformation


Global neoliberalism is on its last legs, while a new international economic order is taking hold. Trade blocs, tariff wars, economic sanctions, and national champions are in; nationalism, anti-immigration movements and the far-right are on the rise. Liberalism is being rejected by the civic realm, as the status quo of the past fifty years crumbles. What remains in its wake?Drawing on original research, leading economist Branko Milanovic reveals the seismic shifts that are shaping our world. He details the facts: how the rising economic power of Asia is creating a new global ‘middle class’ in the greatest reshuffle of incomes since the Industrial Revolution. He explores our fears: why are we becoming increasingly unhappy, when the world is becoming richer and more equal? And he shows us the fight ahead: as plutocracy returns, global war threatens, and a new system silently shapes our nations, driving malcontent to breaking point. In The Great Global Transformation, Milanovic provides an invaluable guide to the new 21st century.
