Příběh s mnoha zápletkami a odbočkami je totiž metaforickým obrazem našeho světa se vším všudy. Zrcadlí se v něm viditelná i skrytá nebezpečí, která plodí bezohlednost, zaslepenost mocenských struktur a osobních zájmů a odráží i četná ekologická témata.

V ukrytém údolí Isája, kde žije jen jediná rodina, se znenadání objeví bílý kůň. Malý Lan se nechá odnést na jeho hřbetě - a třináctiletá Alma se vzápětí vydá po bratrových stopách. Svět tam venku je ale úplně jiný než ten, v němž dosud byli doma: někteří lidé v něm jsou otroci, jiní je loví, prodávají a bohatnou na nich. K nejceněnějším otrokům patří příslušníci kmene, z nějž pochází Alma a její rodina. A na jedné otrokářské lodi zatím kluk jménem Josef Mars schovává do kapsy kapitánovy vzácné hodinky… Timothée de Fombelle (autor knih Tobiáš Lolness, Vango, Dva životy pana Perla a Gloria) napsal velké vyprávění o důležitých věcech, a hlavně o svobodě: té vnější i té, kterou nosíme v sobě, té naší i té pro ostatní. Kniha s podtitulem Vítr se zvedá je první ze tří dílů Almina příběhu.

Vango je tajuplný hrdina, kterého jako malého chlapce vyvrhlo moře na břeh jednoho z Liparských ostrovů u Sicílie, a který se snaží rozluštit záhady obestírající jeho život: Kde jsou jeho rodiče?Proč mu neustále někdo usiluje o život?Kdo to nad ním při jeho dobrodružných cestách po Evropě i Americe neustále drží ochrannou ruku? Strhující román o chlapci milujícím výšky, pařížské střechy, vysoké věže a skotskou dívku Ethel sepsal francouzský spisovatel Timothée de Fombelle, mimo jiné autor velkého dobrodružného románu pro děti Tobiáš Lolness. Nyní přináší příběh klenoucí se nad první polovinou minulého století, v éře prvních vzducholodí, rychlovlaků, mrakodrapů, ve složité době mezi dvěma světovými válkami, která prověřovala lidské charaktery a odlupovala dobro od zla.

Je horké léto roku 1798. Francie je na pokraji státního bankrotu a lidem se nedostává chleba, i když pekaři do mouky přimíchávají piliny. Zatímco Alma s Josefem jsou strženi revolucí, od afrických břehů dál vyplouvají lodě s podpalubím přeplněným otroky. Do Paříže právě přibyl tajemný pan Bassompierre, v němž Josef Mars poznává dávno ztraceného přítele, ale Alma musí sledovat stopy svého bratra do Louisiany a Amélie Bassacová mýtí les, sází kávovníky, staví mlýn… Vydělává peníze na splacení lichvářského úvěru, jinak o svou usedlost přijde....A velké dějiny zatím uhánějí dál: od jednoho břehu Atlantiku k druhému, z Versailles, přes Londýn až do Louisiany, od povstání ve Francii po povstání otroků na Saint-Domingue. V závěrečném dílu románu trilogie se protínají osudy těch, kteří hledají svobodu, s osudy otrokářů a královské rodiny. A pouto Almy a Josefa se tváří v tvář všudy přítomnému nebezpečí stále upevňuje.Závěrečná část trilogie francouzského spisovatele Timothée de Fombelle vychází, stejně jako předchozí díly, s ilustracemi Françoise Placeho, jenž ilustroval i autorův ceněný debut Tobiáš Lolness. Do češtiny knihu přeložila Hana Zahradníčková.

Audiokniha: Odjakživa se cítil nejlíp poblíž nebe. Jenže svět začal být nesnesitelně přízemní… Romantikové mladí duchem, těšte se! Nejvýřečnější Francouz dneška pro vás umotal klubko úkladů, do jehož středu skryl záhadu hrdinovy totožnosti v čase nelidských ideologií 30. let 20. století. Štvanec Vango pátrá, proč ho osud jako nemluvně vyplivl na skalnatý ostrůvek poblíž Sicílie a kdo byli jeho rodiče. Strhující, opulentní, ba přímo lahůdkově kolosální epopej vyprávěná ve stylu Fombellova krajana Dumase ukazuje, že i pod tlakem nacismu a bolševismu v Evropě vzklíčila vůle zúčtovat s neřády stejně jako v příběhu mstitele Monte Crista. Eskapádám nepolapitelného mladíka, jenž miluje osiřelou dívku Ethel a lezení ve výškách, asistují výdobytky tehdejší techniky v podobě vzducholodí, parovlaků a závodních aut. Vždyť ho taky honí nedovtipní policisté i horkokrevní Siciliáni, ve hře jsou piráti, poklad nezměrné ceny i zavilí Rusové, jako obvykle necivilizovaní až hrůza. Jak s tím vším souvisí Stalinova dcera a kam až může Vango ustoupit, aby si tváří v tvář morálním dilematům zachoval čest?

Audiokniha: Za svobodu se občas draze platí. Jenže za otroky ještě mnohem víc… Rodina třináctileté Almy žije v západní Africe v odlehlém údolí. Rodiče nechtějí prozradit, co je sem kdysi přivedlo, a děti mají zakázáno místo opouštět. Jednoho dne se k nim zatoulá tajemný bělouš a Almin mladší bratr Lam ho využije k nebezpečnému útěku za poznáním. Alma sleduje jeho stopu a přitom objevuje děsivou pravdu o svém původním domově, rozvráceném obchodem s otroky. Téhož roku 1786 se v lisabonském přístavu třináctiletý sirotek Josef vplíží na obchodní loď směřující do Afriky. Bláhově doufá, že se dostane k pirátskému pokladu. A do Afriky míří i stejně stará Amélie z La Rochelle, jež právě přišla o otce a většinu rodinného majetku. Jak osudy vykořeněných dětí souvisí a jaký vír událostí je propojí? Vyplouváme!

Ani po zdolání Atlantiku však dívka není úspěchu blíž. S mladíčkem Josefem Marsem se sice cestou přidali k pirátům z Karibiku a právě spolu pročesávají ostrov Santo-Domingo (dnešní Haiti), jenže i tam pocítí zášť ziskuchtivců. Navíc se brzy rozdělí.

This beautiful volume of winter and Christmas-themed verses will be a hugely welcome addition to the George Mackay Brown canon. The poet and novelist lived and worked all his life in Stromness on Orkney: the islands being the sole inspiration for the huge and immensely rich body of work that he left behind at his death in 1997. Many of Mackay Brown''s poems are set in the winter months and we have made here a selection of some of the most evocative. Seamus Heaney wrote of him: ''George Mackay Brown has added uniquely and steadfastly to the riches of poetry in English: his sense of the world and his way with words are powerfully at one with each other. The book has Orcadian woodcuts by the artist Kath Littler, including a cover illustration ''Hoy Hare''.

In 1985 mountain guide Martin Moran achieved the first completion of all 277 Munros* in a single winter with the support and companionship of his wife Joy. Their success was a feat of dedicated mountaineering and effective teamwork through the storms, snows and avalanches of an epic winter season in the Scottish Highlands. Martin''s account of the winter journey became a classic mountain narrative, combining his passionate enthusiasm for the mountains with humorous insights into a marriage put to the test through three months of living in a camper van. It was described as ''the best guidebook to the Munros'' by mountain writer Jim Perrin. The book inspired many other climbers and runners to pick up the gauntlet in pursuit of new feats of endurance on Scotland''s hills, and is now reissued with full colour photographs plus an introductory update by the author on how the ''Munros in Winter'' changed his life.

Finding hope in a small farm, an engaged community, and an age-old connection to the earth After half a lifetime spent moving from place to place, Alexis Lathem at last settled down with her husband on a small farm near Vermont's largest city. The lyric essays of Lambs in Winter take readers through the seasonal cycles of raising sheep and hens and growing fruits and vegetables while confronting the challenges of winter storms, summer floods, invasive weeds, and pests and diseases. Ever conscious of her place in a historically colonized and ecologically degraded landscape, Lathem wrestles with ethical questions that come to many rural dwellers who -Â following Thoreau - set out to 'live deliberately,' in a time of climate crisis, persistent racial inequity, and growing economic inequality. Likewise, she grapples with the moral complexities of small-scale animal husbandry. Through her efforts at self-provisioning, without holding illusions of the self-reliant individual, Lathem finds herself deeply embedded in the community and reliant on others, especially as her region deals with repeated catastrophic flooding brought on by climate change. Through elegant prose and insightful investigations into pressing contemporary issues, Lathem evokes the world of her farm and the surrounding countryside with a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Following eleven Italian narrators, Pane builds a cast of cinematic characters across disparate times and places—a struggling director attends a house party in the la dolce vita of 1960s Rome, gangsters chase a low-level lottery runner in coal valley Scranton, a woman contemplates experimental surgery to purge memories of her childhood trauma in Minnesota, and a pro wrestling promoter descends into self-denial through his autobiography.

The Field in Winter, the third collection of poetry by David Clarke, winner of the Michael Marks Award, elegantly reflects on memory, time, and the very particular landscape of loss, in a calendar of poems, a ‘charm of words’ that track and loop through seasons of nature and living.The relationship between the environment, the human body and the self takes centre stage here in poetry that is concerned with being in the world - senses alive to the detail of things, the trunk of a linden tree , the shock of cold water, the frenzy of bees and blossom. But these remarkable poems also write towards the intangible in the late summer’s dusk – an empty cage, a bird flown; history’s slow grind and echo. Clarke’s elegies reach out to touch what passes us fleetingly in a moment of time – ‘before the tongue can catch them’ – held for that second, precious, in his poised and finely weighted poetry.
