The Man Who Saved The Earth
The story opens on an oppressively hot day with a poor little newspaper boy, Charley, playing with a "burning glass" (a magnifying glass) which he uses to concentrate sunlight onto a small focal spot, thus intensifying the heat on some paper until it burns a hole, perhaps a portent of things to come. He is noticed by a recluse scientist, Dr. Robold, who takes interest in Charley's scientific curiosity and calls him a young Archimedes, referring to the ancient Greek who, as legend tells, used a "burning glass" from shore to set enemy ships ablaze as they were approaching. Charley has no parents to care for him. Dr. Robold takes Charley away from his pitiful life, to a mountain retreat in Colorado. Years later, bizarre, terrifying events begin to occur. At a street intersection in Oakland, California, everything within a large circular area--streetcars, autos, people, pavement--suddenly vanishes without a sound, during a flash of bright, multi-colored light, leaving a vastly deep hole with perfectly smooth sides as though cut with a knife. A wave of something toxic spreads outward, causing people to die of dehydration in a matter of minutes. In a remote rangeland, an entire mountain and 2000 cattle similarly disappear. An enormous fireball cuts a large trench across the United States starting at the Pacific Coastal town of Santa Cruz, California, going all the way to the Atlantic coast and continuing to the "Sargasso Sea" in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, where it hovers and draws up water continuously. Climate patterns change immediately. Water levels in the oceans worldwide fall as the water seems to be consumed by this terrifying object. The English Channel goes dry and the Mediterranian Sea becomes a landlocked lake. The devastation continues.Only one person is the key to saving the world from destruction: Charley, now an adult. We learn that, under Dr. Robold's rearing and tutelage, he studied science. Charley discovers the source of this devastating assault on the Earth and pursues a fast-paced struggle to stop the attack before the Earth is completely plundered.The story was one of 6 short stories that appeared in the first magazine devoted to science fiction, Amazing Stories: The Magazine of Scientifiction, volume 1, number 1, April 1926, edited by Hugo Gernsback and published by his company, Experimenter Publishing Company. The periodical copyright was not renewed and the individual authors' copyrights were not renewed. This magazine and its contents are now in the public domain in the United States.

The Happy Girl. The Unhappy Girl.
Publikácia je nominovaná na výročnú cenu časopisu Pamiatky a múzeá 2020. Vydaniu
katalógu predchádzala rovnomenná výstava, nad ktorou prevzalo záštitu Britské veľvyslanectvo na
Slovensku. Aj tento edičný projekt bol podporený z verejných zdrojov Fondom na podporu umenia.
Slovenský text vrátane registrov a konkordancie sprevádza anglický preklad. Zahŕňa všetky
grafické diela vo fonde galérie, ktoré s Britskými ostrovmi spája autor predlohy, rytec alebo
vydavateľ. Sú zoradené v súvislostiach, ktoré naznačila štruktúra zbierky, teda sčasti chronologicky,
sčasti tematicky, resp. vzhľadom na žáner. Najstaršie listy pochádzajú z knižného vydania
Vergíliových veršov v anglickom preklade Johna Drydena z roku 1697. Ďalším relatívne uceleným
súborom grafických listov je sedem vedút s najvýznamnejšími architektonickými dielami v Dubline
od dielo popredného írskeho grafika a rytca Jamesa Maltona, ktoré vytvoril v 90. rokoch 18.
storočia. V kolekcii však prevládajú portréty. Ilustrujú dejiny ostrovnej monarchie v dobe, keď
vznikli. To bol účel, pre ktorý ich v 19. storočí vydával Hermann Julis Meyer ako súčasť
populárnych konverzačných príručiek. Pozornosť však treba obrátiť najmä na veľký grafický list,
reprodukujúci podobizeň vojvodkyne z Devonshiru od Joshua Reynoldsa. Katalóg voľne nadväzuje
na katalóg talianskej grafiky z roku 2019. Na záver vysvetlenie: zelená farba obálky je farbou
zberateľskej pečiatky Ernesta Zmetáka.

Lilibet: The Girl Who Would be Queen
celebration of the life of Queen Elizabeth II, showing us that the Queen's qualities of duty, self-sacrifice and love of country were present in her from an early age.
'The moments in life of "knowing". On Bognor Beach, with Grandpa England, she had "known" that he, and Papa, and she, would carry something on, something given, something bigger than themselves.'
Lilibet: a carefree child, a lover of horses and dogs, devoted to her family. And the girl who would be Queen.
A.N. Wilson, one of England's most beloved writers, imagines the Queen reflecting on her early life. We watch as she discovers, at the tender age of ten, that she is heir to the throne. We witness her meet the dashing Prince Phillip of Greece, who she loved steadfastly from the age of fifteen, and see their friendship blossom into passionate love. Above all, we learn of her astonishing sense of vocation and public duty, which grew during the dark years of WWII and her father's subsequent years of ill health.
Honouring the life of Her Majesty the Queen and her illustrious reign, Lilibet: The Girl Who Would be Queen is by turns funny, tender and heartfelt.
Geek Girl 1 Šprtka
Volám sa Harriet Mannersová a som šprtka," hovorí o sebe hlavná hrdinka tejto knihy. Vie, že mačka má tridsaťdva svalov v každom uchu, že "okamih" trvá stotinu sekundy a že priemerný človek sa smeje pätnásť ráz za deň. Vie, že netopiere sa vždy vydajú doľava, keď vyletia z jaskyne, a že arašidy sú jednou zo zložiek dynamitu. No nevie, prečo sa jej v škole nikto nepáči. Preto keď ju osloví zástupca modelingovej agentúry, Harriet sa okamžite chytí novej šance, hoci to znamená spustiť lavínu nepríjemností a dokonca klamať ľuďom, ktorých miluje. Ide z jednej katastrofy do druhej a začína si uvedomovať, že svet módy nie je pre ňu. Harriet by chcela žiť v reálnom svete, lenže bude schopná zmeniť sa skôr, než všetko zničí?

Who, The - Who's Next (50th Anniversary) LP
"The Who" je anglická rocková skupina založená v Londýne v roku 1964. Jej základnú zostavu tvorili hlavný spevák Roger Daltrey, gitarista Pete Townshend, basgitarista John Entwistle a bubeník Keith Moon. Sú považovaní za jednu z najvplyvnejších rockových kapiel 20. storočia a celosvetovo predali viac ako 100 miliónov nahrávok. Medzi ich prínosy k rockovej hudbe patrí vývoj Marshall stack, veľké
systémy ozvučenia, použitie syntetizátorov, Entwistle a Moon vplyvné štýly hry, Townshendova spätná väzba a power akord gitarovej techniky a vývoj rockovej opery. Sú citovaní ako vplyv mnohých hard rockových, punkových, power popových a modových kapiel. The Who boli uvedení do Rokenrolovej siene slávy v roku 1990.
"Who's Next" je piaty štúdiový album anglickej rockovej skupiny, pôvodne vydaný v roku 1971. Album bol vyvinutý zo zrušeného projektu Lifehouse', multimediálnej rockovej opery, ktorú napísal gitarista a skladateľ Pete Townshend ako pokračovanie albumu z roku 1969. album „Tommy“. Album obsahuje klasické Who singles ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’, ‘Baba O’Riley’ a ‘Behind Blue Eyes’ a je všeobecne považovaný za najlepšiu nahrávku kapely.

The Girl Who Wasn't Min
Mulligan is not the best thief in Aberddu, but he is a man with a plan. After he finds Min and her friends scraping a living on the streets of the Poor Quarter, he knows he's going to be quids in.Together, Mulligan and the girls build up a rock-solid ruse. As the Fortescues, they hold the key to the homes of the city's great, good and filthy rich. It seems like the perfect scheme - if Mulligan can avoid getting married off - but nothing this good can last forever.The game they are playing is more complex than they first suppose, and soon enough they are plagued by enemies harder to run from than the militia. Greed, resentment and disloyalty take their toll on the gang. With Min and Mulligan enjoying the high life and Angel disappearing for hours at a time, it seems like they might spoil things for themselves before anybody else has a chance to rumble their little ploy.As four street kids and a con-man take on Aberddu's aristocracy, who exactly is playing whom... and will anybody come up smelling of roses?

The Girl Who Trod on the Loaf (EN)
Inger was a little girl but she was a bad person. This was obvious even when she was very small: she enjoyed catching insects and tearing off their wings without any pity for the poor creatures. When she was a bit bigger, her parents sent her to the country to a good family. Here, she became very refined and, going to visit her parents, decided to walk on her bread rather than in the marsh so she would not dirty her shoes.

Women Who Run with Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype
Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of wildish nature come to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., Jungian analyst and cantadora storyteller, shows how woman's vitality can be restored through what she calls "psychic archeological digs" into the bins of the female unconscious. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes uses multicultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories chosen from over twenty years of research that help women reconnect with the healthy, instinctual, visionary attributes of the Wild Woman archetype. Dr. Estes collects the bones of many stories, looking for the archetypal motifs that set a woman's inner life into motion. "La Loba" teaches about the transformative function of the psyche. In "Bluebeard," we learn what to do with wounds that will not heal; in "Skeleton Woman," we glimpse the mystical power of relationship and how dead feelings can be revived; "Vasalisa the Wise" brings our lost womanly instincts to the surface again; "The Handless Maiden" recovers the Wild Woman initiation rites; and "The Little Match Girl" warns against the insidious dangers of a life spent in fantasy. In these and other stories, we focus on the many qualities of Wild Woman. We retrieve, examine, love, and understand her, and hold her against our deep psyches as one whois both magic and medicine. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and lifegiving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.
Poster Girl
A fallen regime. A missing child. A chance at freedom.
By the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divergent, Poster Girl is a haunting adult dystopian mystery that explores the expanding role of surveillance on society - an inescapable reality that we welcome all too easily.
WHAT'S RIGHT IS RIGHT. Sonya Kantor knows this slogan - she lived by it for most of her life. For decades, everyone in the Seattle-Portland megalopolis lived under it, as well as constant surveillance in the form of the Insight, an ocular implant that tracked every word and every action, rewarding or punishing by a rigid moral code set forth by the Delegation.
Then there was a revolution. The Delegation fell. Its most valuable members were locked in the Aperture, a prison on the outskirts of the city. And everyone else, now free from the Insight's monitoring, went on with their lives.
Sonya, former poster girl for the Delegation, has been imprisoned for ten years when an old enemy comes to her with a deal: find a missing girl who was stolen from her parents by the old regime, and earn her freedom. The path Sonya takes to find the child will lead her through an unfamiliar, crooked post-Delegation world where she finds herself digging deeper into the past - and her family's dark secrets - than she ever wanted to.
