Defending Nazis in Postwar Czechoslovakia.
Život advokáta Kamilla Reslera byl plný paradoxů. Jako mladík byl aktivní v Sokole i v anarchistických a dělnických spolcích. Čtyři roky sloužil v rakouské armádě, ale vážně zraněn byl až v československém vojsku. V roce 1936 obhajoval Němce obviněného z velezrady, kvůli čemuž byl označen za zrádce a defétistu. Po Mnichovu se ale postavil za židovské kolegy z advokacie a za války působil v odboji.
Kamill Resler byl však především muž, který dovedl přesvědčit jednoho z představitelů Třetí říše, aby se vzdal nacismu: jako obhájce K. H. Franka před retribuční spravedlností se stal člověkem, kterému se Frank otevřel jako nikomu jinému, a to přesto, že jej Resler - jak Frank uvedl - deprimoval svou neúprosnou tvrdostí a kritikou německých akcí.
Tato kniha nabízí komplexní pohled na Reslerův život a jeho pohled na chvíle, kdy hájil klienty jak proti vůli společnosti, tak i proti vůli své. Jedním z jeho odkazů je definice hlavního úkolu advokáta: „Obhájce musí [tedy] zapomenout na své vlastní cítění a smýšlení, vzdát se své osobnosti a, ať je mu to sebetrpčí, konat svou povinnost do všech důsledků.“

The Nazis Knew My Name
The Nazis Knew My Name is one woman's story about the bravery and kindness shown by her mother in the Holocaust concentration camps.
In the camps during the Second World War, prisoner Magda Hellinger Blau was selected by the SS as a Jewish prison leader and she eventually rises to the senior position of Lagerälteste (Camp Elder). Madga used her proximity to her fellow prisoners and the SS to engage in numerous acts of kindness, bravery and compassion to keep the prisoners alive in frightening and uncertain circumstances. Now, her daughter Maya Lee tells the definitive story of her mother, a woman who showed great bravery and compassion when stuck between worlds of authority and imprisonment.
Using her mother's short memoir as a starting point, this book is Maya Lee's deep-dive into her mother's life and the power of kindness in the face of adversity, as she connects with fellow Auschwitz survivors and forms new friendships throughout her journey. The Nazis Knew My Name is a poignant and personal exploration of the prisoners in the Holocaust camps and the need to still tell these stories almost 70 years on.
In sinu Jesu
V roku 2007 sa začali uprostred ticha adorácie srdcu jedného kňaza prihovárať Pán Ježiš a Panna Mária. Z týchto slov sa zrodila kniha In sinu Jesu, ktorej stránky sa priamo dotýkajú potrieb človeka našej doby a pomáhajú mu prehĺbiť vzťah s Bohom.
Na pozadí základného motívu, ktorým je klaňanie sa eucharistickému Ježišovi a prinášanie náhrady za tých, čo sa neklaňajú, sa tu otvárajú i ďalšie témy duchovného života: modlitba, odovzdanie sa Božej prozreteľnosti, nutnosť ticha, potreba sviatostí a posvätnej liturgie, tajomstvá svätej omše, podstata kňazstva a kľúč k jeho apoštolskej plodnosti, úloha Panny Márie a svätých v našich životoch, skúsenosť hriechu a vlastnej slabosti na ceste za Kristom, túžba po nebi a obnova cirkvi na zemi.
Táto kniha, ktorej učenie sa pevne opiera o Písmo a apoštolskú Tradíciu, vyšla s cirkevným schválením pôvodne v angličtine, bola preložená do mnohých jazykov a stala sa zdrojom obnovy vnútorného života mnohých kňazov, rehoľníkov i laikov po celom svete.

The School That Escaped the Nazis
In 1933, as Hitler came to power, schoolteacher Anna Essinger hatched a daring and courageous plan: to smuggle her entire school out of Nazi Germany. Anna had read Mein Kampf and knew the terrible danger that Hitler's hate-fuelled ideologies posed to her pupils. She knew that to protect them she had to get her pupils to the safety of England.
But the safe haven that Anna struggled to create in a rundown manor house in Kent would test her to the limit. As the news from Europe continued to darken, Anna rescued successive waves of fleeing children and, when war broke out, she and her pupils faced a second exodus. One by one countries fell to the Nazis and before long unspeakable rumours began to circulate. Red Cross messages stopped and parents in occupied Europe vanished. In time, Anna would take in orphans who had given up all hope; the survivors of unimaginable horrors. Anna's school offered these scarred children the love and security they needed to rebuild their lives, showing them that, despite everything, there was still a world worth fighting for.
Featuring moving first-hand testimony, and drawn from letters, diaries and present-day interviews, The School That Escaped the Nazis is a dramatic human tale that offers a unique child's-eye perspective on Nazi persecution and the Holocaust. It is also the story of one woman's refusal to allow her beliefs in a better, more equitable world to be overtaken by the evil that surrounded her.

Lacná kniha Made in Sweden (-90%)
Nad medveďom môžeš vyhrať len vtedy, keď budeš tancovať a správne udierať.
Všetko je nacvičené. Sekunda za sekundou. Každý pohyb na mieste. Nebude jeden jediný svedok, ktorý by mohol informovať o tom, čo sa stalo. Nijaký policajt nenájde stopy vedúce k páchateľom. Potom príde opojný pocit a uvoľnenie. Veľké akvárium pre zlatú rybku plné peňazí.
Pred mnohými rokmi, keď sa rodina rozpadávala, sa traja bratia zomkli. Leo, Felix, Vincent. Tyranský otec ich učil vždy nemilosrdne vrátiť úder. Chlapci boli dokonale školení v násilí, pretože v ňom vyrastali.
Všetko sa začalo prepadom muničného skladu, neskôr transportného vozidla plného peňazí. Potom už lúpeže nasledujú jedna za druhou. Veľa sa strieľa, no nevyhasne ani jeden ľudský život. Páchatelia sa vynoria odnikiaľ a okamžite bez stopy zmiznú. Nikdy nemajú dosť. Švédsko je zdesené a plné obáv.
Vyšetrovanie prvej lúpeže peňazí pridelia mimoriadne schopnému kriminalistovi Johnovi Broncksovi, naplno oddanému svojej práci. On jediný vie, ako na záhadnú Vojenskú ligu. Pochopí, akú taktiku používajú. No kým bratia držia spolu, sú neporaziteľní...

In flagranti
Milování je jako dobré jídlo, musí mít vůni smyslnosti a otevřené horké radosti, okořeněné vášní a naservírované na svůdně blaženém a pestře zdobeném podnosu.
Aneta žije ne zrovna spokojeným manželským životem a svou frustraci z nedostatku kvalitního sexu řeší se svou svůdnou kamarádkou Veronikou, která ji podporuje nejen v manželské nevěře, ale i různých netradičních erotických dobrodružstvích. Spirála vášně, nejtajnějších sexuálních tužeb a fantazií se tak začne nekontrolovaně roztáčet...
When in Rome
Rome is where the heart is.
Amelia Rose is burned-out from years of maintaining her public image as pop princess Rae Rose. Inspired by her favourite Audrey Hepburn film, Roman Holiday, she drives off in the middle of the night for a break in Rome . . . Rome, Kentucky, that is.
Running the pie shop his grandmother left him, Noah Walker is busy enough as it is. But after finding Amelia on his front lawn in her broken-down car, he decides to let her stay in his guest room - on a very temporary basis, of course.
As the two of them grow closer, Noah starts to see a new side to Amelia - kind-hearted and goofy, yet lonely from years in the public eye. Amelia may have to go back to her other life someday, but for now she's perfectly happy falling in love with the cozy small town she's found herself in . . . and her grumpy tour guide isn't half-bad either.
Transnational Forms of Contemporary Neo-Nazi Activity in Europe from the Perspective of Czech Neo-Nazis
Evropské neonacistické hnutí se ze své ideologické podstaty staví negativně vůči globalizaci a mezinárodní migraci. Přesto samo těchto fenoménů využívá k sjednocování se na evropské a celosvětové úrovni ve snaze vytvořit jednotné hnutí, které bude schopné prosadit vlastní ideologii. V Evropě pozorujeme výrazné posilování mezinárodních vazeb mezi neonacisty z jednotlivých zemí, posilování vzájemných kontaktů a narůstající počet aktivit s mezinárodní účastí. Viditelné je rychlé šíření se jednotlivých konceptů a strategií a upevňování společné ideologie nacionálního socialismu s velmi jasnou vizí bílé Evropy.
Cílem této publikace je analyzovat transnacionalizaci neonacistického hnutí, a to z perspektivy českých neonacistů. Publikace nabízí vhled do představy neonacistického hnutí o Evropě, představuje ideologii sjednocující jednotlivá národní neonacistická hnutí. Také představuje neonacistické koncepty a strategie jako příklady transnacionalizace. Dále identifikuje formy konkrétních aktivit mezinárodní spolupráce.

Pokojní v nepokoji / Light in darkness
Fotograf Timotej Križka zachytil príbehy politických väzňov zo Slovenska. Do knihy vybral svedectvá tých, ktorých pobyt vo väzení nezlomil a napriek neprávosti, ktorá bola na nich spáchaná, si zachovali vnútornú slobodu a pokoj. Ako hovorí jeden zo svedkov: Každý z nás má mať určitý životný názor a za ním stáť za každej situácie. Nie meniť svoje názory vzhľadom k tomu, aby po ekonomickej alebo spoločenskej stránke získal niečo navrch. Tak bude šťastný a spokojný.

Človek môže byť fyzicky obmedzený, ale o slobodu ducha, o to nemôže obrať človeka ani väzenie. / A man can be limited physically, but not even prison can rob a man of the freedom of the spirit.
Nehanbím sa sám pred sebou. Keby som videl, aj zrkadlo by mi ukázalo, kto som. / I am not ashamed when I look at myself. If I could see, even the mirror would show me who I am.
Vyšiel som von ako slepý. Nepoznal som peniaze, nič. Bol som samý vred. Boli veľké ako slepačie vajce. Celý čas som žil pod tlakom nevedomosti. Prišiel som domov a keď ma uvidela manželka, myslela si, že má halucinácie. Deti vyrástli, jedna dcérka mala dvanásť, druhá desať rokov. / When I got out I was like a blind man. I didnt know the currency, nothing. I was covered in ulcers. Ulcers as big as chicken eggs. This whole time I lived under the pressure of ignorance. I came home and when my wife saw me, she thought she was hallucinating. My children grew up, one of my daughters was twelve, the other ten.
Tam som mal čas na premýšľanie. Modlil som sa za svojich nepriateľov, nikdy som nepochyboval o tom, že dobro zvíťazí. Naivita? Doteraz som na to nenašiel odpoveď. / In there I had time to think. I prayed for my enemies, I never doubted that good would triumph over evil. Naiveté? I dont have an answer yet.

Down and Out in Paris and London
'You can live on a shilling a day in Paris if you know how. But it is a complicated business'
As a struggling writer in his twenties, Orwell lived as a down-and-out among the poorest members of society. In this, his early memoir, Orwell recalls with vivid clarity his time working as a penniless dishwasher in Paris, pawning clothes to buy a day's worth of bread and wine, sleeping in bug-infested bunks, trading survival skills and cigarette butts with fellow tramps, and trudging between London's workhouse spikes for a few hours' sleep and tea.
With all of the sensitivity and compassion that Orwell is known and loved for, he exposed the hardships of poverty and gave readers an unprecedented look at life lived on the fringes of society.
