Dotek poezie
V okamžiku, kdy čteme báseň nebo jí nasloucháme, se odehrává něco pozoruhodného. Můžeme skutečně říct, že jsme tím, ke komu se obrací a komu je určena? Není vztah, který si s námi utváří, mnohem složitější, a to i tehdy nebo právě tehdy, kdy se nás její text přímo dotýká? William Waters prostřednictvím detailního čtení poezie autorů jako Rilke, Dickinsonová, Bishopová nebo Ashbery ukazuje, jakým způsobem nás básně vtahují a začleňují do komplikované hry odehrávající se mezi jazykem a světem, v níž jsme jen jedním z aktérů, nikoli nutně konečným adresátem lyrického oslovení.

Troubled Blood
Private Detective Cormoran Strike is visiting his family in Cornwall when he is approached by a woman asking for help finding her mother, Margot Bamborough - who went missing in mysterious circumstances in 1974.
Strike has never tackled a cold case before, let alone one forty years old. But despite the slim chance of success, he is intrigued and takes it on; adding to the long list of cases that he and his partner in the agency, Robin Ellacott, are currently working on. And Robin herself is also juggling a messy divorce and unwanted male attention, as well as battling her own feelings about Strike.
As Strike and Robin investigate Margot's disappearance, they come up against a fiendishly complex case with leads that include tarot cards, a psychopathic serial killer and witnesses who cannot all be trusted. And they learn that even cases decades old can prove to be deadly . . .
A breathtaking, labyrinthine epic, Troubled Blood is the fifth Strike and Robin novel and the most gripping and satisfying yet.

Fobie
Určitě všichni znáte někoho, kdo má hrůzu z výšek, nebo se rozječí, jen co uvidí pavouka. A možná mezi takto postižené patříte vy sami.
Nejspíš už ale nevíte, že existují i lidé, kteří se hrozí smíchu, schodišť nebo loutek. A ještě mnohem nevinnějších věcí.
Fobií je zkrátka nepřeberné množství a naše kniha vás seznámí snad se všemi, které kdy byly zaznamenány. Kromě toho se dozvíte, z jakého jazyka a z jakých slov vznikly jejich názvy.
A nám nezbývá než doufat, že netrpíte BIBLIOFOBIÍ čili chorobným strachem z knih.

OWC Esther Waters
Founded in 1906 by J.M. Dent, the Everyman Library has always tried to make the best books ever written available to the greatest number of people at the lowest possible price. Unique editorial features that help Everyman Paperback Classics stand out
from the crowd include: a leading scholar or literary critic's introduction to the text, a biography of the author, a chronology of her or his life and times, a historical selection of criticism, and a concise plot summary. All books published since
1993 have also been completely restyled: all type has been reset, to offer a clarity and ease of reading unique among editions of the classics; a vibrant, full-color cover design now complements these great texts with beautiful contemporary works of
art. But the best feature must be Everyman's uniquely low price. Each Everyman title offers these extensive materials at a price that competes with the most inexpensive editions on the market-but Everyman Paperbacks have durable binding, quality pap
er, and the highest editorial and scholarly standards. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Fókuszban az erősségek
Rendkívüli hatást gyakorol a gyerekekre, ha a nevelés során elsősorban az erősségeikre fókuszálunk, ahelyett hogy állandóan a gyenge pontjaikat igyekeznénk korrigálni. Nemcsak a rugalmas ellenálló képesség fejlesztésében, az optimizmus kialakításában és a célok elérésében segíti őket, hanem növeli az önbecsülésüket és az energiaszintjüket, így immunisabbá válnak a korunkban szinte járványként jelentkező depresszióval és szorongással szemben.
A szerző, Lea Waters több mint 20 évre visszatekintő szakmai pályafutása során azzal szembesült, hogy sok szülőnek nehézségei vannak ezzel a váltással, mert a hagyományos, megcsontosodott nevelési elvek miatt "vakká" váltak az erősségekre. Ezért könyvében számos javaslattal és gyakorlati példával illusztrálva mutatja be, hogyan kommunikáljunk a gyerekeinkkel, hogyan tárjuk fel erősségeiket és képességeiket, hogyan használjuk a pozitív érzelmeket erőforrásként, hogyan kezeljük a viselkedési problémákat, és hogyan beszéljük meg a nehézségeket okozó helyzeteket és érzéseket. Továbbá rámutat még egy pozitív tapasztalatra: módszerét alkalmazva a szülők különösen izgalmasnak és gyümölcsözőnek találják majd a gyereknevelést.
In Deeper Waters
A young prince must rely on a mysterious stranger to save him when he is kidnapped during his coming-of-age tour in this swoony adventure that is The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue meets Pirates of the Caribbean.
Prince Tal has long awaited his coming-of-age tour. After spending most of his life cloistered behind palace walls as he learns to keep his forbidden magic secret, he can finally see his family's kingdom for the first time. His first taste of adventure comes just two days into the journey, when their crew discovers a mysterious prisoner on a burning derelict vessel.
Tasked with watching over the prisoner, Tal is surprised to feel an intense connection with the roguish Athlen. So when Athlen leaps overboard and disappears, Tal feels responsible and heartbroken, knowing Athlen could not have survived in the open ocean.
That is, until Tal runs into Athlen days later on dry land, very much alive, and as charming-and secretive-as ever. But before they can pursue anything further, Tal is kidnapped by pirates and held ransom in a plot to reveal his rumored powers and instigate a war. Tal must escape if he hopes to save his family and the kingdom. And Athlen might just be his only hope...

Britain and Europe in a Troubled World
The history of Britain's complex relationship with Europe, untangled.
Is Britain a part of Europe? The British have been ambivalent on this question since the Second World War, when the Western European nations sought to prevent the return of fascism by creating strong international ties throughout the Continent. Britain reluctantly joined the Common Market, the European Community, and ultimately the European Union, but its decades of membership never quite led it to accept a European orientation. In the view of the distinguished political scientist Vernon Bogdanor, the question of Britain's relationship to Europe is rooted in "the prime conflict of our time," the dispute between the competing faiths of liberalism and nationalism. This concise, expertly guided tour provides the essential background to the struggle over Brexit.
