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.

Lacná kniha Rich People Problems (-70%)
Kevin Kwan, bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians (soon to be a MAJOR MOTION PICTURE starring Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh and Gemma Chan) and China Rich Girlfriend, is back with an uproarious new novel of a family riven by fortune, an ex-wife driven psychotic with jealousy, a battle royal fought through couture gown sabotage, and the heir to one of Asia's greatest fortunes locked out of his inheritance.
When Nicholas Young hears that his grandmother, Su Yi, is on her deathbed, he rushes to be by her bedside—but he's not alone. The entire Shang-Young clan has convened from all corners of the globe to stake claim on their matriarch’s massive fortune. With each family member vying to inherit Tyersall Park—a trophy estate on 64 prime acres in the heart of Singapore—Nicholas’s childhood home turns into a hotbed of speculation and sabotage. As her relatives fight over heirlooms, Astrid Leong is at the center of her own storm, desperately in love with her old sweetheart Charlie Wu, but tormented by her ex-husband—a man hell bent on destroying Astrid’s reputation and relationship. Meanwhile Kitty Pong, married to China’s second richest man, billionaire Jack Bing, still feels second best next to her new step-daughter, famous fashionista Colette Bing. A sweeping novel that takes us from the elegantly appointed mansions of Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, from a kidnapping at Hong Kong’s most elite private school to a surprise marriage proposal at an Indian palace, caught on camera by the telephoto lenses of paparazzi, Kevin Kwan's hilarious, gloriously wicked new novel reveals the long-buried secrets of Asia's most privileged families and their rich people problems.

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...

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.
Homelessness among Young People in Prague
Undoubtedly, homelessness is an interesting phenomenon of today. It represents a clear social failure which can be viewed as a syndrome of a complex social failure. Everyone knows the homeless and sees them on everyday basis, but only few people know about them more than that they look neglected, drink alcohol and always sleep in various places. The reality is, however, in many respects different, primarily as concerns young people for whom the life in the street may be merely a temporary stage in their lives. The book entitled Homelessness as an Alternative Existence of Young People provides information about those who lost their background or even never had it. It is about life in the street and about what preceded it, about their attitudes to the various problems which they face, often unsuccessfully. Young homeless people are different and the stories and causes of their social downswing are also different. The description of life in the street where one loses his privacy, the possibility to satisfy his basic needs and often even self-respect shows what must be endured in order to survive. The second part of the publication is devoted to the opposite process: a return from the street to the society, and the difficulties that must be overcome in order to accomplish it. Often it is not merely about coping with one’s past stigma but also other consequences of non-standard life, such as drug addiction, criminal records or accumulated debt. The text is based on interviews with homeless people and represents and authentic picture of this social group in Prague.

A Vogue története
A Csillogás a szenvedély és a hatalom, a szédítő vagyon és a legragyogóbb divat, a leleményesség és a megalkuvás, a felületesség és a rosszindulat története, a Vogue kimerítően részletes „életrajza”.
Sok nagyszerű dologhoz hasonlóan a Vogue magazin is egy vendégszobából indult. De ellentétben más rögtönzött projektekkel, amelyek fellángolnak, majd kihunynak, a Vogue beégett a kulturális tudatunkba.
Ma, 128 évvel később, a Vogue 25 országban jelenik meg, nyomtatott verzióját több mint 12 millióan olvassák és 67 millió online felhasználóhoz jut el. Több mint egy évszázada vitathatatlanul piacvezető, a világ egyik legismertebb márkája, egyben többmilliós pénztermelő gépezet. Nemcsak egy divatmagazin, hanem intézmény. De vajon mi, vagy ami még fontosabb, ki felelős a Vogue hosszú távú sikeréért?
Jelen kötet arra vállalkozik, hogy választ ad erre a kérdésre, és végigköveti a magazin eddig el nem mondott történetét a New York-i pletykalapként való indulástól a ma ismert, elegáns vállalati óriásig. A Vogue „életrajza” – a szó minden értelmében – három évszázadot és két világháborút ölel fel, hirtelen bukásoknak és vakító sikereknek lehetünk tanúi, miközben megismerjük a magazin és munkatársainak történetét.
