A bosszú Pradát visel - Az ördög visszatér
AZ ÖRDÖG PRADÁT VISEL FOLYTATÁSA!
VISSZAJÖTT...
ÉS ÖRDÖGIBB, MINT VALAHA...
Amióta otthagyta a Runway magazinnál az állását, ,,amelyért lányok milliói az életüket is odaadnák", Andyvel igazán jól bánt az élet. Jelenleg, tíz év elteltével az esküvőjére készül, és a saját, sikeres magazinját szerkeszti.
De akkor miért nem bír aludni az esküvő előtti éjszakán? Csak ideges lenne, vagy komoly kételyei vannak? És miért kell örökösen a volt főnökére, Mirandára - vagyis az Ördögre - gondolnia?
Nagyon úgy tűnik, hogy Andy erőfeszítései, amelyekkel az új áloméletet építgette magának, egyenesen odavezették az Ördög útjába, aki bosszúra szomjazik...
MERT A VISSZAVÁGÓ SOSE MEGY KI A DIVATBÓL!
Aký krásny obrázok
Príbeh o zrade, ktorú rodina odmietla vidieť.
Andrea má štyri a pol roka, keď ju jej otec David po prvýkrát kúpe. Hoci je ešte veľmi malá, cíti, že na spôsobe, akým sa jej dotýka, je niečo nesprávne. Keď ich v kúpeľni prichytí matka Marlene, zrúti sa na zem a po prebudení zistí, že oslepla. Jej hysterická slepota vyvolaná šokom trvá len niekoľko týždňov. Vedomá slepota voči pravde však celé desaťročia.
Andrea vyrastá v tieni nevypovedaného, vyštuduje ošetrovateľstvo a neskôr právo, vybuduje si úspešnú kariéru a naučí sa prežívať vo svete zmarených ilúzií. No vo veku tridsaťtri rokov spustí jeden nechcený dotyk v preplnenom metre lavínu spomienok, ktoré roky držala pod zámkom.
Aký krásny obrázok je silná a bolestivo úprimná memoárová výpoveď o zrade, ktorú rodina odmietla vidieť, a o dlhom, náročnom procese uzdravenia. Vhodná pre fanúšikov bestsellerov Som rada, že mama zomrela (Jennette McCurdy) a Sklený zámok (Jeannette Wallsová).

We Need to Tax Billionaires
Why do billionaires pay less tax than you?
Billionaires often pay a lower income tax rate than nurses, teachers and almost everyone else - sometimes close to zero. This isn't tax evasion, it's the system.
In this explosive manifesto, Gabriel Zucman - the economist revolutionising the study of inequality - reveals how the ultra-rich dodge billions using havens, loopholes and political influence, while public services are breaking.
Until we understand the hidden rules that protect extreme wealth, inequality will keep rising and democracy will keep losing. This game-changing book finally shows us how making the ultra-rich pay their fair share is possible, and why now is the moment.

Az ördög Pradát visel
Andrea Sachs friss diplomásként olyan állást kap, ,,amelyért lányok milliói az életüket is odaadnák". A Runway divatlap főszerkesztője, Miranda Priestly asszisztenseként egy számára teljesen új világban találja magát, ahol csakis Pradát, Versacét és Armanit hordanak. A nők elképesztően ápoltak és tűsarkakon tipegnek, a férfiak pedig izmosak és elbűvölők. De Miranda mindnyájukat képes hisztérikus kisgyermekké változtatni.
Andrea megpróbál alkalmazkodni és megfelelni. Zokszó nélkül és legjobb tudása szerint teljesíti Miranda minden óhaját. Megszerzi a még meg sem jelent legújabb Harry Potter regényt, és különgéppel elküldi Párizsba, hogy Miranda lányai elsőként olvashassák. Felkutatja a közelebbről meg nem nevezett régiségkereskedést Manhattanben, ahol Miranda látott egy jópofa tálalót. Pontosan azon a hőmérsékleten tálalja Miranda ebédjét az irodában, ahogy a főnökasszony megköveteli. És szinte éjjel-nappal csörög a telefonja, mert Mirandának minden percben újabb és újabb lehetetlen kívánsága támad.
De Andrea mindent elvisel, mert egyetlen cél lebeg a szeme előtt: ha kibír egy évet Miranda mellett, az ő ajánlásával utána akármelyik szabadon választott hetilapnál vezető beosztásban dolgozhat. Ám egy idő után Andrea kezd rádöbbenni, hogy a munka, ,,amelyért lányok milliói az életüket is odaadnák", őt akár meg is ölheti.

John of John
Out of money and with little to show for his art school education, John-Calum Macleod takes the ferry home to the island of Harris to find that not much has changed except for him. In the windswept croft where he grew up, Cal resumes his old life, caught between the two poles of his childhood: his father John, a sheep farmer, weaver, and pillar of their local Presbyterian church, and his Glaswegian grandmother Ella, who has kept a faltering peace with her son-in-law for decades.
While Cal wonders if any lonely men might be found on the barren hillsides of home, John is dismayed by his son’s long hair and how he seems unwilling to be Saved. As the seasons pass, everything is poised to change as the threads holding together the fragile community become increasingly entangled.
John of John is the heartbreaking story of a young man’s return home and how the bonds of family life are torn by the weight of expectation. It confirms Douglas Stuart as one of the great British writers at work today.

Junkers Ju 88C Day and Nightfighters
An illustrated account of the action-packed combat missions carried out by the Luftwaffe's powerfully armed Junkers Ju 88C day and nightfighters. The Junkers Ju 88A was the Luftwaffe's most effective medium bomber during much of World War 2, and its high speed and surprising agility made it an ideal candidate for conversion into a Zerstörer (destroyer) fighter. Initially designed to be used as a long-range bomber escort, the solid-nosed Ju 88C fighter boasted powerful cannon that made the aircraft ideally suited to the nightfighter role. Its unrivalled endurance also meant the Ju 88C could undertake sweeps of the Bay of Biscay from the French Atlantic coast in search of Allied maritime patrol aircraft hunting U-boats. Luftwaffe historian Chris Goss charts the action-packed service history of the Ju 88C through first-hand accounts and combat reports from the crews that flew the twin-engined Zerstörer into combat. Newly commissioned profile artworks and more than 50 photographs of aircraft and crews help detail the aircraft’s conversion from a fast bomber into a deadly heavy fighter that proved to be the scourge of Allied bomber and patrol aircraft.

My Own Dear People

This is one of the best books I have read in a long, long time." - Jerry Stahl, author of Nein, Nein, Nein!Nyjah Messado has built a life away from home, but he is haunted not by a ghost, but by a memory: the moment he witnessed a brutal sexual assault and chose silence.

Years later, returning to Montego Bay, he must navigate a city shaped by class divisions, colonial legacies and violence, while confronting the moral cost of what he failed to do. My Own Dear People is a fierce, lyrical coming-of-age novel about masculinity, complicity and self-deception. Unflinching in its treatment of rape culture and homophobia, it asks whether forgiveness, of others, or of oneself, is ever truly possible.
