Jennifer Egan's spellbinding novel circles the lives of Bennie Salazar, an ageing former punk rocker and record executive, and Sasha, the passionate, troubled young woman he employs. Although Bennie and Sasha never discover each other's pasts, the reader does, in intimate detail, along with the secret lives of a host of other characters whose paths intersect with theirs, over many years, in locales as varied as New York, San Francisco, Naples, and Africa. We first meet Sasha in her mid-thirties, on her therapist's couch in New York City, confronting her long-standing compulsion to steal. Later, we learn the genesis of her turmoil when we see her as the child of a violent marriage, then a runaway living in Naples, then as a college student trying to avert the suicidal impulses of her best friend. We meet Bennie Salazar at the melancholy nadir of his adult life-divorced, struggling to connect with his nine-year-old son, listening to a washed up band in the basement of a suburban house-and then revisit him in 1979, at the height of his youth, shy and tender, revelling in San Francisco's punk scene as he discovers his ardour for rock and roll and his gift for spotting talent. We learn what became of his high school gang-who thrived and who faltered-and we encounter Lou Kline, Bennie's catastrophically careless mentor, along with the lovers and children left behind in the wake of Lou's far flung sexual conquests and meteoric rise and fall. A Visit from the Goon Squad is a book about the interplay of time and music, about survival, about the stirrings and transformations set inexorably in motion by even the most passing conjunction of our fates. In a breathtaking array of styles and tones ranging from tragedy to satire to Powerpoint, Egan captures the undertow of self-destruction that we all must either master or succumb to; the basic human hunger for redemption; and the universal tendency to reach for both-and escape the merciless progress of time-in the transporting realms of art and music. Sly, startling, exhilarating work from one of our boldest writers.

From one of the most dazzling and iconic writers of our time comes an electrifying, deeply moving novel about the quest for authenticity, privacy, and meaning in a world where our memories are no longer our own--featuring characters from A Visit from the Goon Squad.It's 2010. Staggeringly successful and brilliant tech entrepreneur Bix Bouton is desperate for a new idea. He's forty, with four kids, and restless when he stumbles into a conversation with mostly Columbia professors, one of whom is experimenting with downloading or "externalising" memory. Within a decade, Bix's new technology, Own Your Unconscious--that allows you access to every memory you've ever had, and to share every memory in exchange for access to the memories of others--has seduced multitudes. But not everyone.In spellbinding linked narratives, Egan spins out the consequences of Own Your Unconscious through the lives of multiple characters whose paths intersect over several decades. Intellectually dazzling and extraordinarily moving, The Candy House is a bold, brilliant imagining of a world that is moments away. With a focus on social media, gaming, and alternate worlds, you can almost experience moving among dimensions in a role-playing game. Egan takes her "deeply intuitive forays into the darker aspects of our technology-driven, image-saturated culture" (Vogue) to stunning new heights and delivers a fierce and exhilarating testament to the tenacity and transcendence of human longing for real connection, love, family, privacy and redemption.

Nikka From the Barrel 51,4% 0,5l O produktu: Nikka From the Barrel je japonská míchaná whisky, která se vyznačuje svou intenzivní chutí a komplexním aroma. Tento blend je výsledkem mistrovského umění japonských mistrů blenderů, kteří pečlivě vybírají a kombinují sladové a obilné whisky z palíren Miyagikyo a Yoichi. Whisky zraje v různých typech sudů, včetně sudů po bourbonu a sherry, což jí dodává bohatou a rozmanitou chuťovou paletu. Nikka From the Barrel je známá svým vysokým obsahem alkoholu (51,4%), který jí propůjčuje výrazný charakter a dlouhotrvající dochuť. Vůně: Vůně této whisky je komplexní a rafinovaná. V první vlně ucítíte tóny květin, zejména šeříku, následované ovocnými tóny meruněk. Poté se rozvinou tóny koření, jako je hřebíček, a jemná vůně kůže. Chuť: Chuť Nikka From the Barrel je intenzivní a peprná, s výraznými tóny dubového dřeva a zralého ovoce, jako jsou broskve a karamelizovaná jablka. V pozadí se objevují květinové tóny zimolezu. Závěr je dlouhotrvající a komplexní, s přetrvávající chutí ovoce, zejména sušených švestek a broskví, a jemnými tóny vanilky a dubového dřeva. Doporučené servírování: Nikka From the Barrel si můžete vychutnat samotnou, s kapkou vody nebo s ledem. Je také vynikající v koktejlech, zejména v těch, které vyžadují výraznou a komplexní whisky. Zkuste ji například v klasickém Old Fashioned nebo Manhattanu. Pro autentický japonský zážitek si ji můžete vychutnat v highballu (s perlivou vodou a ledem) nebo mizuwari (s neperlivou vodou a ledem). Zajímavosti: Nikka From the Barrel byla oceněna jako nejlepší japonská blended whisky mladší 12 let na World Whisky Awards 2007. Její název "From the Barrel" odkazuje na fakt, že po smíchání jednotlivých whisky je výsledný blend uložen na několik měsíců zpět do sudu, což mu dodává ještě větší hloubku a komplexnost. Tato whisky je známá svým ikonickým čtvercovým tvarem láhve, který je inspirován japonskými tradičními dřevěnými krabičkami na saké.

We weren''t supposed to be going to the pictures that night. We weren''t even meant to be outside, not in a blackout, and definitely not when German bombs had been falling on London all month like pennies from a jar.February, 1941. After months of bombing raids in London, twelve-year-old Olive Bradshaw and her little brother Cliff are evacuated to the Devon coast. The only person with two spare beds is Mr Ephraim, the local lighthouse keeper. But he’s not used to company and he certainly doesn’t want any evacuees. Desperate to be helpful, Olive becomes his post-girl, carrying secret messages (as she likes to think of the letters) to the villagers. But Olive has a secret of her own. Her older sister Sukie went missing in an air raid, and she’s desperate to discover what happened to her. And then she finds a strange coded note which seems to link Sukie to Devon, and to something dark and impossibly dangerous.

We all know the name, and we all know that voice, but what the world doesn't know is how Bonnie Tyler came to be the vocal powerhouse that took the music industry by storm. Now, after nearly 50 years in the limelight, Bonnie will lift the lid on her private life: her 50-year marriage, health, family, friendships, and fallouts with the world's biggest stars. Bonnie's is a fascinating, whirlwind of a life, and here, for the first time, she tells the whole story with no filter. The Welsh 80s pop legend tells her story of humble start in a small mining town in South Wales where she lived with her large, loving and eclectically musical family. From singing in church, her incredible voice surprising the congregation, to performing in pubs, to becoming a global icon and national treasure, throughout her successful career she has remained true to herself and her beginnings. This year marks the 40th anniversary of Total Eclipse of the Heart, one of the most famous power ballads of all time. Now as Bonnie approaches 50 years in the business she continues to move with the times, releasing new music and constantly touring the world. A happy childhood of music and freedom is conjured up here, along with the trickier side to being a woman in the music industry in the 1980s. Bonnie will speak with her characteristic no-nonsense humour and candour to create an inspiring and entertaining story of success, longevity and staying true to your roots.

''Endlessly intriguing . . . I was enchanted'' - DAILY TELEGRAPH''Illuminating in every sense of the word'' - John HiggsIn an illuminating blend of memoir and art history, The Other Side explores the lives and work of a group of extraordinary women artists. From the twelfth-century mystic Hildegard of Bingen and the nineteenth-century spiritualist Georgiana Houghton to the pioneering Hilma af Klint, these women all - in their own unique ways - shared the same goal: to communicate with, and learn from, other dimensions. Weaving in and out of their myriad lives, Jennifer Higgie considers the solace of ritual, the gender exclusions of art history, the contemporary relevance of myth, the boom in alternative ways of understanding the world and the impact of spiritualism on feminism and contemporary art.
