Oedipus: The King (EN)
Aristotle's assertion that in Greek tragedy there is no loftier work than "Oedipus the King" cannot be lightly contradicted. This drama is endued fearfully with nature, as she works against the conscientiousness of measure found in man. Heretofore no translation of this play has been a poem of Sophoclean worthiness and work.

Idylls of the King (EN)
Audiobook Idylls of the King written by Alfred - Lord Tennyson. Lovers of legends know that this is the finest retelling of the story of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table; lovers of literature know that this is the greatest of all 19th- century narrative poems. In Tennyson’s gloriously written tale of swashbuckling feats on and off the jousting field, the honour of maidens, knights, queens and kings is won or lost.

King Lear, a Summary of the Play (EN)
King Lear is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare, depicting the gradual descent into madness of the title character, after he disposes of his kingdom giving bequests to two of his three daughters based on their flattery of him, bringing tragic consequences for all. The play is derived from the legend of Leir of Britain, a mythological pre-Roman Celtic king; after the English Restoration, it was often revised with a happy ending for audiences who disliked its dark and depressing tone, but since the 19th century Shakespeare's original version has been regarded as one of his supreme achievements.

The Wicked King – A gonosz király (A levegő népe 2.)
Az első lecke az, hogy erősödj meg.
Miután kiderült a döbbenetes tény, hogy Oak Tündérfölde örököse, Jude-nak meg kell védenie az öccsét. Ennek érdekében magához láncolta a gonosz királyt, Cardant, akit a háttérből irányít. Tündérfölde folyton átrendeződő, intrikákkal teli politikai szövetségei között még akkor is nehéz lenne lavíroznia, ha Cardan mindenben engedelmeskedne neki. Csakhogy a király mindent megtesz, hogy megszégyenítse Jude-ot, és aláássa a hatalmát, hiába nyűgözi le továbbra is a lány.
És ha még mindez nem volna elég, egyértelművé válik, hogy egy Jude-hoz közeli személy el akarja őt árulni, és ezáltal veszélybe sodorná nemcsak a saját, hanem az összes szerette életét. Jude kénytelen az áruló után nyomozni, hogy halandóként magánál tarthassa a hatalmat a tündérvilágban.
És miközben a Cardan iránt érzett bonyolult érzelmeivel is viaskodik.

King of Pride
He's his opposite in every way . . . and the greatest temptation he's ever known.
Reserved, controlled, and proper to a fault, Kai Young has neither the time nor inclination for chaos - and Isabella, with her purple hair and inappropriate jokes, is chaos personified.
With a crucial CEO vote looming and a media empire at stake, the billionaire heir can't afford the distraction she brings.
Isabella is everything he shouldn't want, but with every look and every touch, he's tempted to break all his rules . . . and claim her as his own.
***
Bold, impulsive, and full of life, Isabella Valencia has never met a party she doesn't like or a man she couldn't charm . . . except for Kai Young.
It shouldn't matter. He's not her type - the man translates classics into Latin for fun, and his membership at the exclusive club where she bartends means he's strictly off limits.
But she can't deny that, beneath his cool exterior, is a man who could make her melt with just a touch.
No matter how hard they try, they can't resist giving into their forbidden desires.
Even if it costs them everything.

Teória King Kong
Silná, provokatívna a osobná kniha je úprimnou výpoveďou o tom, ako sa autorka kultovej trilógie Život Vernona Subutexa stala Virginie Despentes. Čerpá z osobných skúseností, rúca zaužívané predstavy o znásilnení a prostitúcii a búra zaužívané postoje o sexe a pohlaví.
Autobiografický feministický manifest spisovateľky a filmárky Virginie Despentes je „plný hnevu a tak presne formulovaný, že je nespravodlivé ho zhrnúť". – Nadja Spielgelman
„Despentes je často označovaná za ‚rockandrollového‘ Balzaca. . . Striedavo pripomína aj Williama Gibsona, George Eliot a Michela Houellebecqa, len s optimistickejším postojom." Chris Kraus
„Virginie Despentes je skutočne originálna punkrocková George Eliot s citom pre žalostné vnútro svojich postáv: nikto iný nemá jej prenikavý pohľad, ostrý zmysel pre humor, inteligenciu, ktorá ako žiletka reže do nánosu zaužívaných vzorcov myslenia našej doby.“ Alexandra Kleeman
„Despentes sa stala akousi kultovou hrdinkou, patrónkou neviditeľných žien: ohavných a marginalizovaných, vyčerpaných, unavených a prudko nezamestnateľných." Parul Sehgal
„Prequel k #MeToo. Jedinečný radikálny hlas queer feministiek, ktorý bol kľúčový pre transformáciu beletristického písania aj politického diania v roku 2010.“ Paul B. Preciado
Teória King Kong, autobiografia, výzva k revolte, manifest nového punkového feminizmu, je autorkiným najobľúbenejším a najzavrhovanejším dielom.
King 1: King
Nincs hol laknia. Nincs mit ennie. Nincs kihez fordulnia.
Doe nem emlékszik a múltjára.
A hírhedt nehézfiú most szabadult a börtönből.
King az az alak, akivel jobb nem szembekerülni, mert vérrel, fájdalommal, szexszel, vagy ezek kombinációjával fizet meg az ember.
King jövője azon múlik, hogyan tudja egyensúlyozni az életét.
Doe történetét homály fedi.
Amikor sorsuk összefonódik, rá kell döbbenniük, hogy a folytatáshoz meg kell tanulniuk elengedni addigi életüket.
Romantika és erotika, krimivel fűszerezve - a tökéletes elegy az olvasói szívek megdobogtatásához.
