Kniha - autor Gillian Gloyerová, 344 stran, česky, pevná s přebalem lesklá Turistický průvodce po Albánii, zemi orlů, bunkrů a dobrodruhů. Od divokých 90. let minulého století se toho v Albánii hodně změnilo a v současnosti jde o jednu z nejzajímavějších turistických destinací celé Evropy, která láká jak velkolepými hrady či zachovalými středověkými kostely, tak odlehlými divokými oblastmi, které jsou jako stvořené pro outdoorové aktivity. V hlavním městě Tiraně najdete kromě připomínky komunistické minulosti spoustu rušných kaváren a mimořádně zajímavých muzeí. Na pobřeží Středozemního moře se pak můžete těšit na pláže, které se od těch nejvyhlášenějších liší jen podstatně menším počtem turistů. Prohlédněte si „muzejní města“ Berat a Gjirokastra vyhlášená skvostnou osmanskou architekturou. Vydejte se na pěší výpravu hlubokými údolími mezi rozeklanými vrcholy Albánských Alp. Užijte si plavbu trajektem po jezeru Komani – jeden z nejlepších vodních zážitků...

Elektronická kniha - autor Petr Horký Miroslav Náplava, 227 stran Albánie - Kráska se špatnou pověstíVíte vůbec, kde leží ten stát fantastických horských scenerií a divokého mořského pobřeží?Evropská země, a přesto jako by byla z jiného kontinentu... První prezident Ahmet Zogu změnil ze dne na den republiku v monarchii a sám sebe prohlásil za krále Zoga I. O čtyřicet let později Albánii prohlásil stalinistický vůdce Enver Hoxha prvním ateisticko-humanistickým státem planety. Jedinou povolenou vírou se tehdy staly komunistické ideály střežené tajnou policií Sigurimi. Malý osamocený stát se opevnil statisíci betonových bunkrů a žil v úplné izolaci po svém. I dnes je to země, kde stále existuje krevní msta a mafie není pojmem z dobrodružných románů. Ale pozor! Cizinec je zde váženým hostem. Petr Horký a Miroslav Náplava hledali v Albánii během posledních několika let opakovaně odpovědi na řadu otázek. Jaké věno dostane albánská nevěsta? Dostává ještě dneska...

Albánie mne nadchla. Nádherná příroda často téměř nedotčená civilizací, báječní lidé, výborná káva i z(a)tracené cesty jsou zážitky, na které se nezapomíná. O ně a své dojmy se pokusím s vámi podělit. Albánií projedeme skok za skokem, šokem za šokem. Přiblížím vám Evropu daleko od Evropy a určitě objevíte zemi, která za návštěvu stojí.*****Cestopis Drsná krása Albánie je vyprávěním o našich albánských cestách v rozpětí 8 let. Nejde o průvodce, který by čtenáře zahltil podrobnými údaji o oblasti a její historií, nicméně některé příběhy jsem přeci jen doplnil o stručné faktografické informace, které mohou poskytnout ucelenější obrázek o navštíveném místě.*****Tahle země je neuvěřitelná v tom, kolik krásných míst se tu dá na tak malém území najít. 2. aktualizované vydání jsem proto doplnil o nové fotografie a hlavně rozšířil o další zajímavá místa včetně kapitoly o plážích a různé formy pobytů.

Love books? The Bordeaux Book Club is seeking new members!When Leah and her husband moved to France, it was with the dream of becoming self-sufficient. But in truth, it’s not the ‘good life’ she’d imagined, as three hours of digging barely yield a single straggly carrot.

So when her friend entreats her to join the new bookclub she’s forming, Leah decides it’s something she will do for herself.

Audiokniha: Zdálo se to jako ideální manželství. Zdání však může vražedně klamat… Amy Elliottová Dunneová zmizela v den pátého výročí svatby. Nick Dunne, její muž, je po sérii nalezených důkazů obviněn z vraždy své ženy. Nick prohlašuje, že nic nespáchal, Amyini přátelé a zápisky v jejím deníku tvrdí opak. Kdo má pravdu? Jak ji poznat? A pokud je Nick nevinný, kam se poděla Amy? Kriminální psychologický román americké spisovatelky Gillian Flynnové z roku 2012 se stal doslova literární senzací – 37 týdnů vévodil žebříčku bestsellerů New York Times a řada periodik ho jmenovala nejlepším thrillerem roku; vyšel ve 46 zemích a dosud se ho prodalo více než 16 milionů výtisků. O dva roky později natočil oscarový režisér David Fincher (Klub rváčů, Sedm, Muži, kteří nenávidí ženy) filmovou adaptaci, Rosamund Pike byla za roli Amy nominována na Oscara.

Audiokniha: Stěží si představit hrůznější zločin než uškrcení malé holčičky. Zapomenuté missourijské maloměsto Wind Gap se ještě nevzpamatovalo z jedné brutální vraždy, a už je tu další, stejně strašná a nepochopitelná. Proč nevinné dívky? A proč jim vrah vytrhal skoro všechny zuby? Pro mladou chicagskou reportérku Camille Preakerovou, která ve Wind Gap vyrůstala, je takový případ vítaným sólokaprem. Jenže to, co se zprvu zdálo jako kariérní příležitost, získá nakonec mnohem osudovější a tragičtější podobu. Ukáže se, že posedlost jde v tomto příběhu až na krev. A to do slova a do písmene. Kontroverzní, znepokojivý psychothriller Gillian Flynnové, podle kterého HBO natočila dramatickou minisérii s Amy Adams v hlavní roli, stojí na počátku autorčiny úspěšné spisovatelské kariéry: její knihy (vycházejí v jednačtyřiceti jazycích) od té doby neopouštějí žebříčky bestsellerů – ani hlavy čtenářů.

In this short, unforgettable memoir, Rose looks back on her childhood, from the young dyslexic girl, torn between father and stepfather, to the adolescent confronting her Jewish inheritance. As an adult, Gillian Rose proves herself a passionate friend, a searcher for truth, a woman in love and, finally, an exacting but generous patient. Intertwining the personal and the philosophical, Rose meditates on faith, conflict and injustice; the fallibility and endurance of love; our yearning for independence and for connection to others.With droll self-knowledge ('I am highly qualified in unhappy love affairs,' Rose writes) and with unsettling wisdom ('To live, to love, is to be failed'), Love's Work asks the unanswerable question: how is a life best lived?

What do you want when no one is watching?Who do you fantasise about when the lights are off?When you think about sex, what do you really want? When we talk about sex, we talk about womanhood and motherhood, infidelity and exploitation, consent and respect, fairness and egalitarianism, love and hate, pleasure and pain. And yet so many of us don’t talk about it at all. In this ground-breaking book, Gillian Anderson collects and introduces the anonymous sexual fantasies of hundreds of women from around the world (along with her own anonymous fantasy).The fantasies are extraordinary: they are full of desire, fear, intimacy, shame, satisfaction and, ultimately, liberation. From fantasising about someone off-limits to conjuring a scene with multiple partners, from sex that is gentle and tender to passionate and playful, from women who have never had sex to women who have had more sex than they can remember, these letters provide a window into the most secret part of our minds.

Psychology is part of everyone''s experience: it influences the way we think about everything from education and intelligence, to relationships and emotions, advertising and criminality. People readily behave as amateur psychologists, offering explanations for what people think, feel, and do. But what exactly are psychologists trying to do? What scientific grounding do they have for their approach? This Very Short Introduction explores some of psychology''s leading ideas and their practical relevance.In this new edition, Gillian Butler and Freda McManus explore a variety of new topics and ways of studying the brain. Until recently it was not possible to study the living human brain directly, so psychologists studied our behaviour, and used their observations to derive hypotheses about what was going on inside. Now - through neuroscience - our knowledge of the workings of the brain has increased and improved technology provides us with a scientific basis on which to understand the structure and workings of the brain, and allows brain activity to be observed and measured. Exploring some of the most important advances and developments in psychology - from evolutionary psychology and issues surrounding adolescence and aggression to cognitive psychology - this is a stimulating introduction for anyone interested in ...

The timeless and compelling ‘word-music’ of one of Britain’s oldest cultural treasures is captured in this new bilingual edition.The Gododdin charts the rise and fall of 363 warriors in the battle of Catraeth, around the year AD 600. The men of the Brittonic kingdom of Gododdin rose to unite the Welsh and the Picts against the Angles, only to meet a devastating fate. Composed by the poet Aneirin, the poem was originally orally transmitted as a sung elegy, passed down for seven centuries before being written down in early Welsh by two medieval scribes. It is composed of one hundred laments to the named characters who fell, and follows a sophisticated alliterative poetics. Former National Poet of Wales Gillian Clarke animates this historical epic with a modern musicality, making it live in the language of today and underscoring that, in a world still beset by the misery of war, Aneirin’s lamentation is not done.

The famous stage-designer Ivan Bilibin was a self-taught artist who was lucky enough to be offered the commission of a lifetime at the very start of his career. In 1899 the Department for the Production of State Documents asked this young Russian artist to illustrate a series of fairy tales, a task that took him four years to complete and inspired his finest work, reflecting his deep love for his country and his passionate interest in its national dress and wooden architecture. This, with ten other traditional tales, make up the collection for which all Bilibin''s original artwork has been faithfully reproduced. Gillian Avery has provided a retelling of the texts which admirably complements Bilibin''s distinctive illustration, itself rooted in the stylized forms of Russian folk and medieval art.

That we will remember we don''t know what struggles each of us may be facing elsewhere in our lives and so we will assume that each of us is doing our best…So begins WE: an inspiring, empowering and provocative manifesto for change. Change which we can all effect, one woman at a time. Change which provides a crucial and timely antidote to the ''have-it-all'' Superwoman culture and instead focusses on what will make each and every one of us happier and more free. Change which provides an answer to the nagging sense of ''is that it?'' that almost all of us can succumb to when we wake in the dead of night.Written by actress Gillian Anderson and journalist Jennifer Nadel – two friends who for the last decade have stumbled along together, learning, failing, crying, laughing and trying again – WE is a not a theoretical treatise but instead a rallying cry to create a life that has greater meaning and purpose.
