Román Beze stopy je napínavá psychologická detektivka se strhující atmosférou; přestože jde o debutovou prózu, ocitla se kniha záhy na žebříčku britských bestsellerů, stejně jako autorčiny následující knihy THE BURNING a THE RECKONING.Když jednoho dne zmizí dvanáctiletá Jenny, uvědomuje si její učitelka Sára Finchová mnohem lépe než ostatní, že se s každým dalším dnem zmenšuje naděje, že její žačku naleznou živou a zdravou. Jako dítě totiž Sára zažila něco podobného: jednoho dne beze stopy zmizel její starší bratr Charlie, a celou její rodinu tato tragédie hluboce zasáhla. Sáře je nyní něco přes dvacet a bydlí s matkou, která své chmury zahání alkoholem a pokojíček svého syna udržuje v někdejším stavu jako jakousi podivnou svatyni. Pak se Sáře přihodí něco příšerného: v lesíku nedaleko svého domu objeví Jennyino tělo. Je vtažena do policejního vyšetřování, a zatímco vzdoruje obrovskému mediálnímu zájmu, pomalu na ni samotnou padá podezření. Ale nesleduje ji jen policie…

Kniha pojednává o lidové stravě v národopisném regionu Doudlebska, který se rozkládá mezi Českými Budějovicemi, Českým Krumlovem, Kaplicí a Trhovými Sviny. Autor při jejím psaní vycházel z vyprávění pamětníků, odborné literatury, kronik a memoárů. Líčí nejen podobu selského jídelníčku před sto a více lety, ale i jak vypadaly staré kuchyně a topeniště, jaké plodiny se v minulosti pěstovaly, jak lidé přežívali období hladu a válek, jak se vařilo na farách a panských sídlech, o svatbách a o posvíceních nebo jak probíhalo pečení chleba, nakládání zelí či zabijačka prasete. Závěrečná kapitola přináší rovněž skutečné recepty na některá jídla. Čtenáři tak vyvstává před očima poutavý a přitom reálný obraz všedního života jihočeského venkova v 19. a 20. století.

"There were only a handful of people in the world who still really believed in Suede at the time, and five of them were in the band." - Brett Anderson, Suede"Suede were Marmite at the time, and I was expecting the press to trash them. Every meeting I had with the record company, I was told they were done for." - Ed Buller, Coming Up producer"How did they do that? Comeback of the century." - Select magazine cover, November 1996Here They Come with Their Make-Up On examines in exquisite detail how Suede emerged from the chaotic, ruined remnants of their career and somehow managed to conjure up their most joyously evocative and celebrated album to date. Coming Up—the extraordinary record in question—stumped the band’s most ardent critics and hit the jackpot, with sales that eclipsed those of their first two releases combined. As the band’s publicist throughout that period, Jane Savidge is uniquely placed to reveal exactly how they did it. This book is also a personal journey into the heart of an album that Jane loves—if not unconditionally then as a piece of work that has ultimately survived the ravages of time—and the brutish, nasty, and not-so-short nature of the media scrutiny that had threatened to confine the band to the dustbin of history. In addition, it features yet more outlandish tales from Jane’s time with Suede and those around them back then, as well as new interviews with band members Brett Anderson, Richard Oakes, and Neil Codling, and Coming Up’s producer, Ed Buller.

V květnu roku 2024 uplynulo již padesát let od smrti zlínského rodáka, vynikajícího herce a milého člověka Jana Libíčka. Jeho bytí vyhaslo v pouhých dvaačtyřiceti letech pod pražským Vyšehradem při natáčení známého filmu Jak utopit doktora Mráčka anebo konec vodníků v Čechách. Tento vynikající filmový i divadelní umělec zemřel velmi symbolicky při práci. Svou profesi miloval a zanechal v ní výrazno stopu. Jan Libíček byl na první pohled dobrosrdečný tlouštík s plachýma očima a lehkým jemným úsměvem, ale jeho osobnost skrývala i zvláštní smutek obyčejného přemýšlivého člověka. Hercovo nitro zůstalo po celý život neodhaleno. Libíčkovo umění je naštěstí zachováno dodnes a může nás čas od času těšit. A přesto lze jen poněkud smutně konstatovat, že dramatičtí umělci tohoto typu nejsou už dnes jaksi k mání. Za bodrého rodáka z Valašska není náhrada. Je to holá pravda. Proto nezbývá než poděkovat Pánu Bohu za to, že tu Jan Libíček byl a stále je.

Nechyběl jim však smysl pro humor a dovedli vyprávět veselé i mrazivé příběhy o bytostech pohádkových i postavách historických, jako byl například Zachariáš z Hradce, který v druhé polovině 16. století výrazně jako dobrý hospodář pozvedl svá panství od Telče po Přibyslav. A víte třeba, jak a kdy objevili lidé známý léčivý pramen Svatá Anna u Pohledu?

So Bright and Delicate: Love Letters and Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne is a testament to the love that inspired the passion and creativity of one of the greatest English Romantic poets. This Penguin Classics edition includes an introduction by Jane Campion, Oscar-winning director of the film Bright Star.John Keats died aged just twenty-five, leaving behind some of the most exquisite and moving verse and love letters ever written, inspired by his great love for his neighbour, Fanny Brawne. Although they knew each other for just a few short years and spent a great deal of that time apart - separated by Keats''s worsening illness, which forced a move abroad - Keats wrote again and again about and to his love, right until his very last poem, called simply ''To Fanny''. She, in turn, would wear the ring he had given her until her death. So Bright and Delicate contains the love poems and correspondence composed by Keats in the heat of his passion, and is a dazzling display of a talent cruelly cut short.John Keats (1795-1821) lost both his parents at an early age. His decision to commit himself to poetry, rather than follow a career in medicine, was a personal challenge, unfounded in any prior success. His first volume of poetry, published in 1817, was a critical and commercial failure. During his short life he received little recognition, and it was not until the latter part of the nineteenth century that his place in English Romanticism began to be understood, and not until this century that it became fully appreciated.If you enjoyed So Bright and Delicate, you might like Keats''s Complete Poems, also available in Penguin Classics.

The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller'Biden splices a heartbreaking story with an election story and a foreign affairs story. And in so doing, he offers something for everyone, no matter which strand draws you in' - The New York Times Book ReviewFrom President-Elect Joe Biden, winner of the 2020 United States presidential election, Promise Me Dad is his deeply moving memoir about the year that would forever change both a family and a country.In November 2014, thirteen members of the Biden family gathered for their traditional Thanksgiving celebration. But this year felt different from previous. Joe and Jill Biden's eldest son, Beau, had been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour fifteen months earlier, and his survival was uncertain. 'Promise me, Dad,' Beau had told his father. 'Give me your word that no matter what happens, you're going to be all right.' Joe Biden gave him his word.Promise Me, Dad chronicles the year that followed, which would be the most momentous and challenging in Joe Biden's extraordinary life and career. Vice President Biden travelled more than a hundred thousand miles that year, across the world, dealing with crises in Ukraine, Central America and Iraq. While Beau fought for, and then lost his life, the Vice President balanced the twin imperatives of living up to his responsibilities to his country and his responsibilities to his family, while contemplating the insistent and urgent question of whether he should seek the presidency in 2016. Even in the worst times, Biden was able to lean on the strength of his long, deep bonds with his family, on his faith, and on his deepening friendship with the man in the Oval Office, Barack Obama.Promise Me, Dad is a story of how family and friendships sustain us and how hope, purpose and action can guide us through the pain of personal loss into the light of a new future.

1973: The incredible true story of the Blythe Star disaster, which left ten men, shipwrecked and alone, on the wild Southern Ocean off Tasmania. Almost two weeks later they were found on a remote trail on a southern peninsula, and their story would stun the nation ... and leave a powerful legacy in its wake. When the coastal freighter MV Blythe Star left Hobart on a routine trip, Mick Doleman was an 18-year-old deckhand working alongside nine other crewmen, all accustomed to the dangers of the sea. But nothing could prepare them for what happened less than 24 hours later. In the early morning, the Blythe Star started listing, and swiftly sank. Miraculously, all the crewmen escaped, only to be crammed into a tiny life raft at the mercy of the ocean. The ship's sinking sparked the largest sea and air search at the time, but the crew remained lost – and soon they were given up for dead. Twelve days later, three ravaged and starving men, including Mick, found help on a remote logging trail in heavy bush on the Tasman Peninsula. Their story was shocking, and set the country alight with questions about their plight. How had they disappeared without trace? How had they survived the un-survivable? This is an extraordinary story of human endurance in one of the most challenging environments on earth, written by Piia Wirsu, the producer and narrator of 'From the Dead', the award-winning season of the ABC podcast Expanse, with Mick Doleman, now the only surviving crewmember of the Blythe Star, who became a global influence in maritime safety.
