Existencialni western á la Jarmuschův Dead Man či Cormac McCarthy, nominovaný na Booker Prize 2011.Prospektora Hermanna Warma čeká násilná smrt - nařídil ji záhadný a mocný muž známý pouze jako Komodor a mají se o ni postarat jeho neblaze proslulí zabijáci Eli a Charlie Sesterové. Hloubavý a citově založený Eli sice nesdílí bratrovu zálibu v alkoholu a zabíjení, nic jiného však nikdy nepoznal. Za oběť však tentokrát nedostali snadný cíl a Eli si cestou z Oregon City na Warmův zlatokopecký zábor v Kalifornii na hřbetě svého churavého koně začne klást otázky, jaké si vlastně zvolil živobytí - a jakému muži slouží. V žánrově originálním pikareskním westernu Bratři Sesterové nás Patrick deWitt přenáší do časů kalifornské zlaté horečky - a činí tak pozoruhodným jazykem a strhujícím vypravěčským stylem, v němž těsně pod povrchem zdánlivě vážného líčení mohutně bublá brilantní humor. V jeho dramatické odyseji plné nástrah, svodů a pochybných i fantaskních figurek se mísí absurdita, melancholie i drsnost Divokého západu a dvou pistolnických sourozenců, které spojuje pouto krve, násilí i bratrské lásky.Vydání knihy podpořila Kanadská rada pro umění.

An absolute joy to read So we have second chance romance, forced proximity, and marriage of convenience?! Sign me up! By far one of the best books ever! It s fun, real, and so filled with deep love .......................They say love and construction don t mix. By that logic, hate and construction may as well be condemned.

But a decade later, when their grandmothers have left them with shared ownership of their dilapidated Santa Cruz building, they re thrust back together and have to figure out how to brace up the pieces. LaRynn has the money, but in order to access her trust, she has to be married. Deacon has the construction expertise, but lacks the funds. A deal is struck: Marry for however long it takes to fix up the property, collect a profit, and cut ties. Thrust into a home without walls, LaRynn and Deacon quickly learn that it s easy to hide behind emotional ones, even in a marriage. But with all the exposure and pitfalls that come with living with the opposite sex (and none of the perks, much to their growing mutual frustration) they ll also have to learn what it means to truly cooperate as a team. .......................Praise for Tarah DeWitt: It s everything I look for in a romance, deftly blending heart, humour, and the perfect amount of angst AMY LEA Pure romance catnip and a master class in yearning.

Borison and Lucy Score.Readers say ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐! Great spicy scenes, baking and a lot of humour before the HEA A beautiful mix of family and romantic love A romance writing star of the highest calibre! Great read sexy, sweet, and wonderful ....................... You really can t go home again. Tait Logan is proud of the life she s built for herself. Despite her world-shattering divorce, not having any genuine connections with other humans apart from her sister Ava, and the fact that the remainder of her family is estranged from her life, she s happy . . . happy-adjacent, at least. She s rebuilt herself through her photography; her dream career, the one thing she does still have. When that career contracts her to do an assignment on her estranged family s home, Logan Range - a now famous ranch functioning as the setting for a popular TV show - she s left with no choice but to agree. It s only a six-week assignment, after all. She has no plans to set down roots, or get to know the family that, seemingly, has had no interest in a relationship with her since her parents divorce when she was seven. Henry Marcum is a cowboy who has dedicated his life to the Logan family and to their ranch. He owes them for raising him, rescuing him, and giving him purpose . . . He also owes them for every hardship he s inadvertently brought their way. So, when Tait Logan shows up after 20 years of near total silence, he takes it upon himself to protect the people he knows and loves. It s a rocky start when Tait and Henry first collide; he is naturally wary of her intentions, and she is more than perturbed by their literal collision - which results in her broken camera, during her first night on location, no less. But as the pair get to know each other better, they re thrown off balance time and time again by their growing feelings, and by the story of the Logan family as it becomes increasingly less clear from their perspectives........................Praise for Tarah DeWitt: It s everything I look for in a romance, deftly blending heart, humor, and the perfect amount of angst AMY LEA Pure romance catnip and a master class in yearning.

Audiokniha: Všimli jste si portrétu ženy na titulní straně knihy? Líbí? Během pár vteřin ho nakreslila Midjourney – stačilo jí dát pár pokynů a navíc za to nic nechtěla. Midjourney je totiž umělá inteligence a třeba o tisíc originálních obrázků ji můžete požádat i vy. Ještě před půl rokem by to nešlo… O knize Digitální technologie se vyvíjejí překotným tempem a je čím dál těžší s nimi držet krok. Který z dnešních vynálezů je pouze „hype“ – bublina odsouzená k prasknutí, a co skutečný „game-changer“? Na odpovědích záleží naše osobní budoucnost, ale i prosperita celé společnosti. Patrick Zandl patří už třetí dekádu mezi přední znalce nových technologií. V této knize srozumitelně objasňuje, jak fungují, a střízlivě posuzuje jejich budoucí potenciál. Neomezuje se přitom na technologie samotné, důraz klade i na jejich společenské dopady. Protože převratné vynálezy přinášejí nečekané příležitosti i nečekané hrozby. Při čtení knihy mimo jiné pochopíte: - Skutečný princip fungování kryptoměn, jejich možnosti a limity. Sami se pak můžete kvalifikovaněji rozhodnout, jestli do nich investovat. - Jakou budoucnost mají další aplikace blockchainu – nahradí tzv. chytré smlouvy notáře? - Proč umělá inteligence představuje revolučního pomocníka v medicíně či průmyslu, ale nebezpečný prvek v trestním systému. - Jaké možnosti kontroly dává technologická revoluce vládám a jak funguje čínský systém sociálního kreditu. - Proč bychom se měli zabývat zamýšlenou evolucí sociálních sítí – metaverzem. - Že se čipy staly nejdůležitější „surovinou“ světa. Kdo je má, vítězí, kdo je nemá, upadá. - Proč nové technologie zvyšují křehkost společnosti, co nám hrozí a jak to všechno přežít. „Když se s novými technologiemi potkáváte, děje se tak zpravidla prostřednictvím nadšených článků věrozvěstů, propagátorů a marketérů, kteří nemají důvod rozebírat stinné stránky, případně si jich ani nejsou vědomi. Jenže selhávání má své zákonitosti a jsem přesvědčený, že aktuální technologická revoluce otřese mnoha jistotami. Každý by měl proto rozumět současným možnostem i rizikům, jinak naše víra v pokrok bude slepá.“ – Patrick Zandl O autorovi Patrick Zandl (* 1974) je technologický publicista, který stál u zrodu českého internetu. V roce 1996 zakládal první český technický zpravodajský server, který později prodal iDNES. V roce 2006 spoluzakládal videoportál Stream.cz a dnes pracuje jako koordinátor vývoje u největšího světového výrobce 3D tiskáren Prusa Research. Je autorem řady knížek i článků popularizujících moderní technologie a udržitelnou energetiku. Ohlasy „Psát umí kdekdo a číst zahraniční weby také. Patrick Zandl však patří do jiné kategorie. To, o čem píše, má osobně vyzkoušené a důkladně promyšlené. Ve schopnosti originálních úvah o budoucnosti digitálního světa tak u nás nemá konkurenci.“ – Petr Koubský, redaktor pro vědu a technologie v Deníku N Více o knize melvil.cz/kniha-myty-a-nadeje

Audiokniha: Dáma, která měla ráda čisté záchodky - audiokniha obsahuje humorný příběh o tom, jak se i v neštěstí na vás může osud nečekaně usmát, když si potrpíte na čistých toaletách. Autor James Patrick Donleavy. Čte Petra Špalková, Jan Hartl, Jiří Dvořák. Kronika jedné z nejzvláštnějších událostí, o kterých se kdy v New Yorku povídalo. Román Jamese Patricka Donleavyho vypráví příběh ženy, které se ve třiačtyřiceti letech stalo to, co potkává mnoho lidí v tomto věku – opustí ji životní druh a dospělé děti vyletí z rodného hnízda. Hlavní hrdinka Jocelyn Guenevere Marchantierová-Jonesová (Petra Špalková) se s tím zpočátku vyrovnává se ctí, ale postupem času upadá do podivné strnulosti a čím dál větší materiální bídy. V okamžiku, kdy se už zdá, že její život nemůže dospět jinam než k chmurnému dobrovolnému konci, vyplatí se jí zásada, kterou jí vštěpovala její babička, totiž „používat jen ty nejčistší z čistých záchodků“, a to naprosto nečekaným způsobem. Brilantně vypointovaný, a přitom tak nejednoznačně vyznívající příběh této až do poslední chvíle hrdé, vtipné a ironické hrdinky je zábavný a dojemný zároveň. James Patrick Donleavy James Patrick Donleavy se narodil roku 1926 v New Yorku a většinu svého života prožil v Irsku; proto si ho přisvojuje jak literatura irská, tak americká. Upozornil na sebe už svým debutem z roku 1955 nazvaným Zrzek (The Ginger Man), kritikou řazeným k tvorbě autorových generačních souputníků, anglických rozhněvanců Kingsleyho Amise, Johna Osbornea či Johna Waina, a dodnes vyučovaným na amerických univerzitách jako modelová próza předznamenávající hnutí hippies 60. let. Autor se též prosadil na amerických divadelních scénách svými jednoaktovkami, které se staly pojmem.

Fanoušci seriálu Jak jsem poznal vaši matku a Barneyho Stinsona jistě tuší či vědí, že Neil Patrick Harris nemůže být nudný člověk, jaký by napsal tradiční či suchý životopis. Název jeho biografi e odkazuje k tzv. gamebookům: čtenář se sám stává hlavní postavou knihy, tedy Neilem Patrickem Harrisem, a může se na konci každé kapitoly rozhodnout podle nabízených možností, kde bude ve čtení/životní dráze NPH pokračovat. Vydává se tedy z malého amerického města do světa televize, fi lmu, broadwayského muzikálu; učí se magii; získává první erotické zkušenosti; objevuje sám sebe a svou sexuální orientaci; žení se a má děti; dosahuje úspěchů u kritiky i diváků. Harris ve své knize nejen rekapituluje svou úspěšnou hereckou dráhu, nemlčí ani o svých neúspěších, a neváhá odkrýt své soukromí, pokud tím může povzbudit lidi, kteří jen obtížně hledali sami sebe nebo se museli vyrovnávat s předsudky okolí. Herce narozeného v roce 1973 zná celý svět především jako Barneyho ze seriálu Jak jsem poznal vaši matku. V kůži této postavy napsal společně se scenáristou seriálu Mattem Kuhnem řadu knih, ve které Barneyho životní fi losofi i dále rozvíjí a nabízí jako inspiraci čtenářům, zejména mužům. Harrisova herecká dráha je ovšem mnohem delší a pestřejší, a jeho životopis nabízí všem fanouškům tohoto talentovaného herce velmi zábavnou možnost, jak se s jeho kariérou, prací i osobním životem dopodrobna seznámit.

Audiokniha: Příběhy jsou jako divá zvěř. Když je vypustíš na svobodu, mohou napáchat spoustu škody. Přesně sedm minut po půlnoci navštíví třináctiletého Conora netvor. Chlapce však neděsí, protože nic nemůže být horší, než noční můry, které ho v poslední době pronásledují. Než realita, ve které žije. Než fakt, že jeho máma je vážně nemocná, táta kdesi za mořem s novou rodinou a na něj zbyla jenom upjatá babička, s níž si nerozumí. Když se teď rozhádal se svou nejlepší kamarádkou, nezbyl nikdo, komu by mohl říct, že se mu ve škole spolužáci buď vyhýbají pohledem, nebo ho šikanují. Proč by se měl bát tajuplného přízraku z dávných časů, ukrývajícího se v podobě starého stromu za domem, který tvrdí, že ho sám zavolal? Přichází proto, aby Conorovi vyprávěl tři příběhy. Na oplátku ale něco chce. Tu nejnebezpečnější věc ze všech. Chce slyšet pravdu. Filmová adaptace příběhu plného temně pohádkové atmosféry vstoupila do českých kin 30. března 2017. Patrick Ness (* 1971) Americko-britský spisovatel a novinář se narodil na vojenské základně Fort Belvoir ve Virginii, kde jeho otec působil jako výcvikový instruktor americké armády. Studoval anglickou literaturu na Univerzitě Jižní Kalifornie. První povídka mu vyšla roku 1997 v časopise Genre. Vyučoval tvůrčí psaní na Oxforské univerzitě a působil jako redaktor v Daily Telegraph, Sunday Telegraph a Guardian, kam píše recenze dodnes. Celosvětovou čtenářskou popularitu mu přinesla sci-fi série Chaos, na níž navázal několika různorodými texty, které však spojuje autorův nezaměnitelný rukopis: suverénní vypravěčství, obsahová hloubka a dotyk nadpřirozena. Román Volání netvora (Slovart, 2017) napsal podle námětu zesnulé Siobhan Dowdové a obdržel za ni CILIP Carnegie Medal (cenu CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal získaly také ilustrace Volání netvora od Jima Kaye). Ness je rovněž autorem scénáře filmové adaptace příběhu, kterou režíroval Juan Antonio Bayona (horor Sirotčinec, dvě epizody první řady seriálu Penny Dreadful). Následovaly knihy Něco víc (Slovart 2017) a My ostatní tu prostě žijem (Slovart, 2016). Patrick Ness je rovněž scenáristou nového spin-off k seriálu Pán času. Jan Vondráček (* 1966) K divadlu se dostal během vojny po gymnáziu (účinkoval v Armádním uměleckém souboru). Následovalo studium na katedře alternativního a loutkového divadla DAMU, odchod s celým ročníkem do nově vzniklého Dejvického divadla, účast na mnoha festivalech, řada ocenění a vstup do souboru Divadla v Dlouhé, jehož členem je dodnes. Díky seriálu Mentalista, v němž dabuje hlavní postavu Patrika Janea, je známý i jeho hlas (Cena Františka Filipovského 2010). Filmoví a televizní diváci jej mohli zaznamenat ve filmech Pokoj v duši (2009), Lidice (2011), Příběh kmotra (2013) nebo v seriálech České století (2013), Život a doba soudce A. K. (2014) či Vraždy v kruhu (2015).

Patrick Roth vypráví neuvěřitelný příběh Josefa z Nazaretu jako zoufajícího si člověka, líčí jeho hlubokou víru a neposlušnost vůči Bohu. Román zároveň pátrá po možnosti nového počátku. Jeruzalém v roce 70 po Kristu: hrozí, že římské oddíly zboří ochranné hradby. Obléhání Svatého města je výchozím bodem románu plného silných obrazů, jehož oblouk vyprávění se klene až k okamžiku Ježíšova narození. Ve středu událostí stojí Josef, Mariin muž, o němž evangelia vyprávějí, že naslouchal snům, když k sobě přijal ženu a dítě. Patrick Roth mu přisuzuje osud plný napětí, drama mezi člověkem a božskostí jako neuchopitelnou mocí. Třináct let po Ježíšově zrození vyžaduje Bůh od Josefa nejvyšší oběť. „Kde je tu spravedlnost, abych porozuměl?“ žaluje Josef tváří v tvář neopodstatněné Boží vůli. Dokáže tuto oběť přinést? V rafinovaně do sebe propletených pasážích mezi snem a realitou proniká román do prostoru prožitků, v němž se bortí zdánlivé jistoty. Rothovo vypravěčské umění vychází z existenciální zkušenosti a svědčí o výjimečné síle autorova jazyka, který je ve svém přiblížení výrazovému rytmu Bible sám estetickým zážitkem. Od současné tvorby se způsob Rothova vyprávění odlišuje především v tom, že připouští transcendenci, a ve své radikální vážnosti je ojedinělým zjevem v německy psané literatuře.

Vítěz ceny Magnesia Litera 2020 – překlad. Svazek Patrick Melrose I přináší první tři romány z pětidílného, částečně autobiografického cyklu románů o Patricku Melroseovi z let 1992–2011, v němž se vypravěč vyrovnává s tím, že se stal „hračkou v sadomasochistických hrátkách svých rodičů“. Všechny tři knihy – nazvané Na tom nesejde, Špatná zpráva a Trocha naděje – se odehrávají během jednoho dne a autor nám v nich prostřednictvím mistrných črt nabízí pohled nejen do prostředí britské společenské smetánky, ale i do odvykacích center a newyorské drogové scény. Vypravěč je uchvácen svým démonickým otcem – ten na něm v prvním díle ukájí své sadistické choutky, v druhém díle je přítomen již jen jako stín (už dospělý Patrick cestuje do New Yorku vyzvednout jeho ostatky) a v díle třetím vystupuje jako vzpomínka, na niž nejde zapomenout, ale ani se s ní usmířit. „Hamlet na heroinu“, „makabrózní groteska hnaná sebedestruktivní touhou“ – i tak označovala ostrovní kritika St Aubynovo dílo. Jeho románový cyklus ale zdaleka není jen zádumčivý román o traumatu; je to dílo čtivé, neobyčejně vtipné, ve své společenské kritice přesné a sžíravé. Ve své románové pentalogii o Patricku Melroseovi Edward St Aubyn dokazuje, že je skutečným následovníkem Evelyna Waugha a Oscara Wildea. Mravy vyšších středních vrstev a nižší šlechty nikdo neukázal v tak krutém a šokujícím světle. Málokterý spisovatel dokázal zúčtovat se svými odpudivými rodiči ani svým traumatizovaným dětstvím s tak temným humorem. „Důvtip Oscara Wildea, lehkost P. G. Wodehouse a kousavost Evelyna Waugha.“ – Zadie Smithová „Zcela mimořádné… Kyselinový humor ostrý jako jehlové podpatky.“ – Francine Proseová „Přečetla jsem pět románů o Patricku Melroseovi za pět dní. Když jsem dočetla poslední, dala jsem si všech pět ještě jednou.“ – Ann Patchettová, Guardian Spisovatel a žurnalista Edward St Aubyn se narodil roku 1960. Kromě pěti románů o Patricku Melroseovi -- Na tom nesejde, Špatné zprávy, Trocha naděje, Mateřské mléko a Konečně -- napsal ještě další tři prózy, z nichž nakl. ARGO vydalo roku 2015 prózu Marně hledám slov. Spolupracoval též na scénáři k pětidílné televizní minisérii nazvané podle jména hlavního hrdiny. Titulní roli bravurně ztvárnil Benedict Cumberbatch.

The very best of British and Irish nature writing selected by the natural history writer Patrick Barkham.The landscapes of Britain and Ireland, together with the creatures and plants that inhabit them, have penetrated deep in our collective imagination. From Gilbert White and Dorothy Wordsworth to Laurie Lee and Nan Shepherd, literature inspired by the natural world has become an integral part of our shared identity, and shaped our relationship with the islands we call home.In The Wild Isles, Patrick Barkham has gathered together a wide array of the very best of British and Irish nature writing, characterized by an arresting diversity of moods and voices. His choices are arranged under themes that range from birds, woods and coastlines to childhood, the seasons and urban nature, and juxtapose extracts from much-loved classics with passages by contemporary writers such as Robert Macfarlane, James Rebanks and Helen Macdonald. Here the reader will find joyful celebrations of landscape and the wildlife it nurtures, probing explorations of the environmental problems facing us today, as well as the fresh and vital perspectives of writers from underrepresented backgrounds. If British and Irish nature writing is to grow and endure, writes Barkham in his introduction, it must be diverse, complex, multi-faceted and dynamic, and relevant to everyone who lives on this land. Encompassing the bleak heights of the Cairngorms, the ancient woodlands of Essex, the storm-lashed islands of Ireland s west coast and the lush fields of Devon, The Wild Isles highlights nature s capacity to terrify and to delight, to soothe and to heal, to surprise, inspire and bring wonder.

The decades of experience-based wisdom that Graupp, Steward and Parsons share will set you on a new path to a more joyful organization and the tangible results it will produce. Rich Sheridan, CEO, Menlo Innovations; author of Joy, Inc. and Chief Joy Officer A fine book by skilled practitioners that integrates Kata and TWI, with Strategy Deployment in pursuit of an integrated management system. Well done, Skip, Brad and Patrick. Pascal Dennis, president, Lean Pathways Inc.; author of Lean Production Simplified, Andy Me, Andy Me and the Hospital, Getting the Right Things Done, and The Remedy In this practical and engaging book, Patrick Graupp, Skip Steward, and Brad Parsons give a concise and extremely clear explanation of what systems thinking looks like in a healthcare setting. And they do so in a way that translates easily to any type of organization. Highly recommended! Alan Robinson, co-author of Ideas Are Free and The Idea-Driven Organization Despite the vast library of knowledge on Lean tools and models, the majority of Lean implementations fail to sustain themselves over time for lack of a functioning management system. In turn, when organizations try to apply a prescribed, one-size-fits-all, management system they inevitably find that what works for others may not work quite as well in their unique situation. Putting the right pieces in the right places is the prime challenge for every organization and no two successful management systems will, or should, be the same.This book provides and examines core principles that must be in place for an organization to find what an effective management system should constitute for them. It outlines key elements and how they work together as a necessary system to achieve overall success.Based on their extensive experience with organizational development and hands-on leadership in policy deployment, TWI and Kata, the authors describe their own journey in helping organizations discover and develop systems that function like well-designed and smooth-running machines while capturing the humanistic aspects of the foundational skills that emphasize the inherent synergy of the system. Readers will learn to help their own organizations connect the dots between the various pieces of Lean methodology and effectively create their own management systems that ultimately fulfil customersâ ™ needs and expectations.
