Uncommon Type: Some Stories
A hectic, funny sexual affair between two best friends. A World War II veteran dealing with his emotional and physical scars. A second-rate actor plunged into sudden stardom and a whirlwind press junket.
A small-town newspaper columnist with old-fashioned views of the modern world. A woman adjusting to life in a new neighbourhood after her divorce. Four friends going to the moon and back in a rocket ship constructed in the backyard.
A teenage surfer stumbling into his father's secret life. These are just some of the people and situations that Tom Hanks explores in his first work of fiction, a collection of stories that dissects, with great affection, humour and insight, the human condition and all its foibles. The stories are linked by one thing: in each of them, a typewriter plays a part, sometimes minor, sometimes central.
To many, typewriters represent a level of craftsmanship, beauty and individuality that is harder and harder to find in the modern world. In his stories, Mr Hanks gracefully reaches that typewriter-worthy level. Known for his honesty and sensitivity as an actor, Mr Hanks brings both those characteristics to his writing.
By turns whimsical, moving and occasionally melancholy, Uncommon Type is a book that will delight as well as surprise his millions of fans. It also establishes him as a welcome and wonderful new voice in contemporary fiction, a voice that perceptively delves beneath the surface of friendships, families, love and normal, everyday behaviour.
Type O Negative - Life Is Killing Me 2CD
Type O Negative bola americká gothic metalová skupina, ktorú založili v Brooklyne v New Yorku v roku 1989 Peter Steele (basgitara, spev), Kenny Hickey (gitara, spolu-vedúci spev), Josh Silver (klávesy, sprievodné vokály) a Sal Abruscato (bicie, perkusie), ktorého neskôr nahradil Johnny Kelly. Ich lyrický dôraz na témy romantiky, depresie a smrti vyústil do prezývky „Drab Four“ (na poctu prezývke Beatles „Fab Four“).Skupina sa stala platinovou s albumom Bloody Kisses z roku 1993 a zlatou s albumom October Rust z roku 1996 a získala si fanúšikovskú základňu prostredníctvom siedmich štúdiových albumov, dvoch najlepších kompilácií a koncertných DVD. Steele zomrel 14. apríla 2010 vo veku 48 rokov a členovia Type O Negative oznámili, že nebudú pokračovať ako kapela. V roku 2023 Rolling Stone zaradil „Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare-All)“ medzi 100 najväčších heavymetalových skladieb všetkých čias.
Life Is Killing Me je šiesty štúdiový album vydaný 17. júna 2003 a bol to ich posledný štúdiový album vydaný cez nahrávaciu spoločnosť Roadrunner Records. Názov a obsah albumu odkazuje predovšetkým na nespokojný životný pohľad a skúsenosti frontmana Petra Steela s duševnými chorobami v čase písania a produkcie, s textami o vzťahových problémoch a chorobe a smrti jeho rodičov.

Type O Negative - Bloody Kisses: Suspended In Dusk 2CD
Type O Negative bola americká gothic metalová skupina, ktorú založili v Brooklyne, New York City v roku 1989 Peter Steele (basgitara, spev), Kenny Hickey (gitara, spolu-vedúci spev), Josh Silver (klávesy, sprievodné vokály) a Sal Abruscato (bicie, perkusie), ktorého neskôr nahradil Johnny Kelly.

Bloody Kisses je tretí štúdiový album a zároveň posledná nahrávka s ich pôvodnou zostavou, keďže bubeník Sal Abruscato opustil skupinu koncom roku 1993 a pripojil sa ku kolegom z vydavateľstva Life of Agony. Album obsahuje dve z ich najznámejších piesní, "Christian Woman" a "Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare-All)", pričom obe získali kapele značný kult. Album ďalej ustanovil opakujúce sa motívy hudby skupiny, ako napríklad zahrnutie cover verzií piesní nahratých v ich vlastnom unikátnom štýle, samplovo náročných medzihrávok a textov plných suchého, satirického humoru.

Big Type
'Big Type' explores graphic design and identity work where the emphasis is on typography. The visual landscape in which today's designers are contributing to is very cluttered and the digital world alone is so vast, that sometimes it feels hard to make your voice heard amongst all the noise. The work on show within this book examines how designers can produce work that stands out and cuts through the noise. It showcases a fascinating direction in graphic design, forged by a collision of technology, typography and trends which is creating new and exciting results.

Type O Negative - The Origin Of The Feces 2LP
KDO: Type O Negative byla americká gothic metalová skupina založená v Brooklynu v New Yorku v roce 1989. Jejími členy byli Peter Steele (hlavní vokály, basa), Kenny Hickey (kytara, doprovodné vokály), Josh Silver (klávesy, doprovodné vokály) ) a Sal Abruscato (bicí, perkuse), který byl později nahrazen Johnnym Kellym. Jejich důraz na témata romantiky, deprese a smrti vyústil v přezdívku „Drab Four“ (po vzoru přezdívky The Beatles „Fab Four“). Jejich album Bloody Kisses z roku 1993 dosáhlo platinových a následující Rust z roku 1996 zlatých prodejů. 14. dubna 2010 zemřel Peter Steele srdeční selhání způsobené aortální aneuryzmou. Ostatní členové se rozhodli bez něj v tvorbě nepokračovat.
CO: Vinylová reedice slavné desky. Druhé album kapely bylo pořízeno ve studiu, zvuk reagujícího publika byl do záznamu vložen dodatečně, aby vznikla iluze koncertní nahrávky. Album obsahuje i cover verzi Paranoid z repertoáru Black Sabbath.

The Murderous Type
I wrote murder mysteries. I didn’t investigate them. Until now…
Crime writer turned amateur sleuth, Jen, has taken over the running of the local bookstore in her hometown of Riddleton.
But balancing the books at Ravenous Readers is nothing compared to meeting the deadline for her new novel.
Dodging phone calls from her editor takes a back seat, however, when the local police chief is poisoned. To solve the murder, Jen must dust off her detective hat once more.
With everyone in town seemingly a suspect, and evidence planted to incriminate local police officer and close friend Eric, Jen is working against the clock. Can she find the killer and beat her own writer’s block before it’s too late?
Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Lauren Elliott and Ellery Adams, this is an absolutely gripping and addictive bookish cozy mystery that will have you turning the pages late into the night.
Tolvajok klubja 2: Uncommon Criminals - Különös bűnözők
A hírnév kötelez.
Katarina Bishopra sokféle címkét aggattak már eddigi rövid élete során: barát, unokahúg, gyermek, tolvaj. Ám az elmúlt két hónapban ő lett a lány, aki a bandájával kirabolta a világ legnagyobb múzeumát. Éppen ezért Kat meg sem lepődik, amikor felkérik, hogy lopja el a hírhedt Kleopátra-smaragdot, hogy visszakerülhessen jogos tulajdonosához.
Csakhogy van három gond. Először is, a drágakövet harminc éve senki sem látta. Másodszor, az Egyiptomi Birodalom bukása és Kleopátra halála után bárki birtokolta is a smaragdot, képtelen volt sokáig megtartani; a történelem pedig hajlamos ismételni önmagát. Kat csapatát mégis a harmadik probléma aggasztja leginkább: a kövön átok ül.
A lány, még ha nyakig benne van is a pácban, harc nélkül nem adja fel. Végtére is vele van a legjobb barátja - a nagyszerű Hale - és a csapat többi tagja. Együtt erednek Kleopátra smaragdjának nyomába, és miközben sorra cselezik ki az átkokat, rájönnek, hogy azoknak a trükköknek és svindliknek, amiket a tolvajcsaládok évszázadok óta sikerrel alkalmaztak, most semmi hasznát nem veszik.
Ez pedig azt jelenti, hogy Katarina Bishop kénytelen felrúgni a saját szabályait.
A Tolvajok klubja méltó folytatása.
