What is a place? A place where things happened, horrible things, the traces of which have been erased? Ukraine, for a long time, has been filled with these ‘inconvenient places’ which embarrass everyone, no matter which side of post-Soviet memorial politics they stand on: crimes of Stalinism, crimes of Nazism, crimes of nationalists, crimes of Russians; the killings follow one after another on this battered territory which aspires only to a form of peace and normality.   With the photographer Antoine d’Agata, before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Jonathan Littell began to survey Babyn Yar, the site of the 1941 massacre of the Jews of Kyiv, and the traces left on the landscape. The war came to interrupt their work. It resumed quite quickly in another form, in another place, the small suburban town of Bucha, which became infamous after the discovery of the atrocities perpetrated there by the Russian occupying forces. Again, a place where things happened; again, a place whose traces we erase as quickly as possible. How then to write, how to photograph, when there is literally nothing to see – or almost nothing?

In a spellbinding new masterpiece by #1 New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva, Gabriel Allon undertakes a high-stakes search for the greatest art forger who ever livedLegendary spy and art restorer Gabriel Allon has at long last severed ties with Israeli intelligence and settled quietly in Venice, the only place where he has ever truly known peace. His beautiful wife, Chiara, has taken over the day-to-day management of the Tiepolo Restoration Company, and their two young children are discreetly enrolled in a neighborhood scuola elementare. For his part, Gabriel spends his days wandering the streets and canals of the watery city, bidding farewell to the demons of his tragic, violent past.But when the eccentric London art dealer Julian Isherwood asks Gabriel to investigate the circumstances surrounding the rediscovery and lucrative sale of a centuries-old painting, he is drawn into a deadly game of cat and mouse where nothing is as it seems.Gabriel soon discovers that the work in question, a portrait of an unidentified woman attributed to Sir Anthony van Dyck, is almost certainly a fiendishly clever fake. To find the mysterious figure who painted it—and uncover a multibillion-dollar fraud at the pinnacle of the art world—Gabriel conceives one of the most elaborate deceptions of his career. If it is to succeed, he must become the very mirror image of the man he seeks: the greatest art forger the world has ever known.Stylish, sophisticated, and ingeniously plotted, Portrait of an Unknown Woman is a wildly entertaining journey through the dark side of the art world—a place where unscrupulous dealers routinely deceive their customers and deep-pocketed investors treat great paintings as though they were just another asset class to be bought and sold at a profit. From its elegant opening to the shocking twists of its climax, the novel is a tour de force of storytelling and one of the finest pieces of heist fiction ever written. And it is still more proof that, when it comes to international intrigue and suspense, Daniel Silva has no equal.

To escape an overprotective family and an abusive partner, a young lawyer accepts an assignment in the Amazonian border town of Cruzeiro do Sul. There, she meets Carla, a local prosecutor, and Marcos, the son of an indigenous woman, and learns about an epidemic of violence against women that seems beyond comprehension. What she finds in the jungle is not only relentless oppression, but a deep longing for answers to an unsolved crime from her past. Through the ritual use of ayahuasca, she meets a chorus of warrior women on a path of revenge and recovers the painful details of her mother’s death. The Simple Art of Killing a Woman is a psychological trip with a twist.

‘Fearsome wit’ Elle‘Charming’ Buzzfeed‘Ridiculously entertaining’ Associated Press‘Endearingly honest’ Guardian A collection of humorous autobiographical essays by the Academy Award-nominated actress and star of Pitch Perfect, Twilight, Up in the Air, Into the Woods and Trolls. Even before she made a name for herself on the silver screen, Anna Kendrick was unusually small, weird, defiant, and ‘10 per cent weird’. When she was thirteen, a classmate dropped by her house unexpectedly and discovered written evidence of Anna’s social ineptitude. From then on she decided to ‘keep the crazy inside my head where it belonged. Forever. But here's the thing about crazy: It. Wants. Out.’ In Scrappy Little Nobody, she invites her readers inside her brain, sharing extraordinary and charmingly ordinary stories with candour and winningly wry observations. With her razor-sharp wit, Anna recounts the absurdities she’s experienced on her way to and from the heart of pop culture as only she can – from her unusual path to the performing arts (her older brother’s affinity for Vanilla Ice may have inadvertently launched her career) to her double life as a middle-school student who also starred on Broadway to her initial ‘dating experiments’ (including only liking boys who didn't like her back) to the perils of reading The Shining while filming Twilight in the isolated Canadian wilderness to reviewing a binder full of butt doubles to her struggle to live like an adult woman instead of a perpetual ‘man-child'. Enter Anna's world and follow her rise from ‘scrappy little nobody’ to someone who dazzles on the stage, the screen, and now the page – with an electric, singular voice, at once familiar and surprising, sharp and sweet, funny and serious (well, not that serious).

From the author of the “delightful” (New York Times Book Review) Mary Jane, a new novel of found family, growing up, and the best and worst of the 1980s, revolving around San Francisco’s most exclusive department store, I. Magnin.Nineteen-year-old Zippy can hardly believe it: she’s the newest and youngest salesgirl at I. Magnin, “San Francisco’s Finest Department Store.” Every week, she rotates her three spruced-up Salvation Army outfits and Vaseline-shined pumps; still, she’s thrilled to walk those pumps through the employee entrance five days a week as she saves to buy something new. For a girl who grew up in a one-bedroom apartment above a liquor store with her mother and her mother’s madcap boyfriend, Howard; a girl who wanted to go to college but had no help in figuring out how; I. Magnin represents a real chance for a better and more elegant life. Or, at the very least, a more interesting one.Zippy may not be in school, but she’s about to get an education that will stick with her for decades. Her fellow salesgirls (lifetime professionals) run the gamut from mean and indifferent to caring and helpful. The cosmetics ladies on the first floor share both samples and advice (“only date a man with a Rolex”); and her new roommate, Raquel, an ambitious lawyer, tells Zippy she can lose ten pounds easy if she joins Raquel in eating only every other day. Just when Zippy thinks she’s getting a handle on how to be an adult woman in 1985, two surprises threaten both her sense of self and her coveted position at I. Magnin.Set in the Day-Glo colors of 1980s San Francisco, Shopgirls is an intoxicating novel of self-discovery, outrageous fashion, and family both biological and found.

The sharp and surprising true story of a woman who finally sets out to understand her past, and the mother she had one day hoped to forget. Full of unexpected twists and unbelievable revelations, American Daughter is an immersive memoir that will have you on the edge of your seat to the very last page.For years, Stephanie Plymale, successful CEO and interior designer, kept her past a fiercely guarded secret. Only her husband knew that her childhood was fraught with every imaginable hardship: neglect, hunger, poverty, homelessness, truancy, foster homes, a harrowing lack of medical care, and worse. Stephanie, in turn, knew very little about the past of her mother, who was in and out of jails and psych wards for most of Stephanie''s formative years. All this changed when a series of shocking revelations forced Stephanie to revisit her tortured past and revise the meaning of every aspect of her compromised childhood.American Daughter is the extraordinary true story of a young girl growing up on the wrong side of the American Dream. Stephanie has slept in blankets on the floor of crowded apartments, lived in the back seat of a car with her siblings, and spent decades looking over her shoulder at a mother who might just as easily hug or harm her. American Daughter is at once a moving account of a troubled mother-daughter relationship and a meditation on resilience, transcendence, and ultimately, redemption.

Aby prežila a zabezpečila svojej dcérke najzákladnejšie potreby, musí vziať aj najpodradnejšiu prácu. Slúžka je emocionálne drsná, majstrovsky napísaná výpoveď o autentických rokoch, ktoré autorka prežila ako upratovačka v službách pre americkú vyššiu strednú vrstvu. Upratovačka v tomto zmysle znamenalo byť „neviditeľná ako duch“, byť tichým svedkom úspechov, tragédií a najhlbších tajomstiev svojich klientov, no súčasne byť prehliadaným, niekedy ponižovaným, no hlavne ignorovaným človekom. Pritom sa však snaží vyhrabať zo svojej sociálnej mizérie, bojovať o svoju ľudskosť a dostať sa na štúdium na vysokej škole. Je to dielo o tom, ako človek dokáže vďaka svojej nezdolnej húževnatosti prekonať príkoria života na potravinových lístkoch, podporných sociálnych programoch, ale prekonať aj odcudzenosť svojich najbližších. Nad všetko ostatné je príbeh Stephanie Landovej obrazom odvrátenej strany tzv. amerického sna, kde byť chudobným znamená byť poznačeným stigmou.

She definitely doesn’t have time to bring order to her chaotic library of magic.When a mysterious dark wizard arrives at her castle, Saskia hires him as her new librarian on the spot. ‘Fabian’ is sweet and a little nerdy, and his requests seem a little strange – what in the name of Divine Elva is a fountain pen? – but he’s getting the job done. And if he writes her flirtatious poetry and his innocent touch makes her skin singe, well . . .Little does Saskia know that the ‘wizard’ she’s falling for is actually an Imperial archduke in disguise, with no magical training whatsoever. On the run, he’s in danger from Saskia''s enemies and her new-found allies, too. So when Saskia finally discovers the truth, will their love save them – or be their doom?‘Stephanie Burgis is a fresh new voice and I can’t wait to see what she does next’ – Ilona Andrews, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of the Kate Daniels series

A moving memoir from a woman who made a fortune in a man''s world and then gave it all away...soon to be turned into a filmIn 1962, Stephanie ''Steve'' Shirley created a software company when the concept of software barely existed. Freelance Programmers employed women to work on complex projects such as Concorde''s black box recorder from the comfort of their own home. Shirley empowered a generation of women in technology, giving them unheard of freedom to choose their own hours and manage their own workloads. The business thrived and Shirley gradually transferred ownership to her staff, creating 70 millionaires in the process.Let It Go explores Shirley''s trail blazing career as an entrepreneur but it also charts her incredible personal story - her dramatic arrival in England as an unaccompanied Kindertransport refugee during World War Two and the tragic loss of her only child who suffered severely from Autism.Today, Dame Stephanie Shirley is one of Britain''s leading philanthropists, devoting most of her time, energy and wealth to charities that are close to her heart. In Let It Go, Shirley tells her inspirational story and explains why giving her wealth away - letting it go - has brought her infinitely more happiness and fulfilment than acquiring it in the first place.Co-written with Richard Askwith, the former Executive Editor of The Independent and the award-winning author of seven books in his own name, including biographies of Emil Zátopek and Lata Brandisová.''An extraordinary tale of creativity and resilience'' - Guardian''This engrossing story of an extraordinary life is filled with lessons in what it means to be human'' - Financial Times

A Black feminist punk musician herself, Phillips addresses not only the unpredictable trajectory of Solange’s career but also how she and other Black women see themselves through the musician’s repertoire. First, she traces Solange’s progress through an inflexible industry, charting the artist’s development up to 2016, when the release of her third album, A Seat at the Table, redefined her career. With this record and, then, When I Get Home (2019), Phillips describes how Solange has embraced activism, anger, Black womanhood and intergenerational trauma to inform her remarkable art.Why Solange Matters not only cements the subject in the pantheon of world-changing twenty-first-century musicians, it introduces its writer as an important new voice.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER A Good Morning America Book Club Pick A New York Times Most Anticipated Books of Fall From the New York Times bestselling author who inspired the hit Netflix series about a struggling mother barely making ends meet as a housecleaner, a “raw and inspiring” (People) memoir about college, motherhood, poverty, and life after Maid.When Stephanie Land set out to write her memoir Maid, she never could have imagined what was to come. Handpicked by President Barack Obama as one of the best books of 2019, he called it an “unflinching look at America’s class divide…and a reminder of the dignity of all work.” Later, it was adapted into the hit Netflix series Maid, which was viewed by sixty-seven million households and was Netflix’s fourth most-watched show in 2021, garnering three Primetime Emmy Award nominations. Stephanie’s escape out of poverty and abuse in search of a better life inspired millions. Maid was a story about a housecleaner, but it was also a story about a woman with a dream. In Class, Land takes us with her as she finishes college and pursues her writing career. Facing barriers at every turn including a byzantine loan system, food insecurity, the judgments of professors and fellow students who didn’t understand the demands of attending college while under the poverty line—Land finds a way to survive once again, finally graduating in her mid-thirties. Class paints an intimate and heartbreaking portrait of motherhood as it converges and often conflicts with personal desire and professional ambition. Who has the right to create art? Who has the right to go to college? And what kind of work is valued in our culture? In clear, candid, and moving prose, Class grapples with these questions, offering a searing indictment of America’s educational system and an inspiring testimony of a mother’s triumph against all odds.

Audiokniha: Vztahy mezi matkami a dcerami bývají složité, ale tohle je tedy pořádné psycho! Patty Wattsová byla pro mnohé hrdinkou, ba téměř světicí – obětavou svobodnou matkou pečující o těžce nemocnou dceru, kterou od dětství sužovaly nejrůznější zdravotní problémy. Jednoho dne se však ukáže, že nebohá Rose Gold je úplně zdravá a všechno to zvracení, padání vlasů, výživové sondy a operace zavinila její matka, která dívce dávala celé roky do jídla jed a o jejím stavu všem kolem bohapustě lhala. Po mediálním lynči a jednoznačném soudním procesu skončí „travička Patty“ na pět let ve vězení, kam ji dostalo dceřino emotivní svědectví. Jaké je proto překvapení obyvatel městečka Deadwick, když se stejná žena po propuštění nastěhuje k již dospělé Rose Gold, která jí klidně svěří péči o novorozeného syna. Dokázala snad týraná dívka své matce odpustit a dát jí druhou šanci? A je nyní z Patty starostlivá máma a milující babička? Nebo spolu obě ženy hrají nějakou ďábelskou partii? Ale která z nich je v tom případě na tahu? Román pojednávající o případu tzv. Münchhausenova syndromu v zastoupení byl inspirován skutečným příběhem Gypsy Rose Blanchardové a její matky Dee Dee. „Z každého dějového zvratu čiší čiré zlo, obě hlavní postavy s fascinující urputností ovládají stránku za stránkou a vyvrcholení je hodno nejlepších románů Patricie Highsmithové.“ – Daily Mail. „Naprosto senzační – dvě komplexní postavy pohánějí příběh jako nukleární reakce a nenechají na sebe zapomenout.

Fresky na stropě Sixtinské kaple jsou jedním z nejvěhlasnějších mistrovských děl italské renesance. Stephanie Storey ve své knize líčí jejich vznik jako ještě nikdo předtím: očima Michelangelova nejzuřivějšího soka, mladého, pohledného Rafaela Santi z Urbina, vynikajícho malíře posedlého dokonalostí. Rafael osiřel v jedenácti letech a je pevně odhodlán dodržet slib, který dal svému otci na smrtelném loži: stát se největším malířem v dějinách. Ale aby mohl být nejlepší, musí porazit nejlepšího, legendárního sochaře, tvůrce Davida, Michelangela Buonarrotiho. Papež Julius II. povolá oba umělce do Říma a postaví je proti sobě: Michelangelo maluje strop v Sixtinské kapli, zatímco Rafael má na starosti výzdobu papežových soukromých komnat. Rafael usiluje o dokonalost, ale zápasí přitom s vnitřními démony: zoufalou ctižádostí, ochromujícícm strachem z nedokonalosti a nesmírnou osamělostí. Během práce kuje pikle s kardinály, prolézá trosky antického Říma a zamiluje se do pekařovy dcery, která se stala nevěstkou a jako taková jeho múzou.Rafael, malíř v Římě se svým krásným jazykem, působivým prostředím, milými postavami a poutavou zápletkou barvitě líčí život dvou renesančních mistrů soupeřících uprostřed nebezpečných vatikánských síní.

Zahradničit bez rytí - je to vůbec možné? A proč vlastně? Autoři této knihy (a mnozí jiní) svou zahradu tímto způsobem obdělávají již celá desetiletí. Ušetří si tak spoustu času i práce a zároveň tím podporují přirozené a udržitelné fungování půdy a celého ekosystému. Spolupráce s přírodou se jim pak vrací především v podobě zdravější a úrodnější půdy, která lépe hospodaří s vodou a v níž se rostlinám dobře daří. O své bohaté zkušenosti se Charles a Stephanie dělí v této ucelené publikaci, v níž se láska k zahradničení a přírodě snoubí s praktičností a jednoduchost s hojností. Metoda bez rytí je přímočará. Nejprve odstraníme plevel nanesením mulče - pokrývky, pod níž mohou užitečné půdní organismy dál nerušeně fungovat. Když totiž půdu narušíme rytím, značnou část těchto organismů poškodíme či zcela zničíme. Půvab zahradničení bez rytí spočívá také v tom, že půda se nepotřebuje tak jako po narušení uzdravovat za pomoci plevelů, takže jejich výskyt přirozeně klesá. Mulčování vrstvou kompostu dodá půdě zároveň výživu i ochranu, záhony získají krásnou tmavou pokrývku a vaší zahradnické invenci nebude stát nic v cestě. Kniha obsahuje základní informace od založení zahrady až po úspěšnou sklizeň a skladování úrody a současně nabízí spoustu tipů a receptů na zpracování a využití zeleniny, ovoce a bylin jak přímo na zahradě, tak v kuchyni a v celé domácnosti. Takže kromě vytváření záhonů, předpěstovávání, sázení a efektivního plánování se od autorů můžeme naučit vyrábět domácí kosmetiku či přípravky proti škůdcům a také připravit leccos dobrého na zub.

Služka je emocionálně drsná, mistrně napsaná výpověď o autentických letech, které autorka přežila jako uklízečka ve službách pro americkou vyšší střední vrstvu. Úklid v tomto smyslu znamenalo být „neviditelná jako duch“, být tichým svědkem úspěchů, tragédií a nejhlubších tajemství svých klientů, ale současně být přehlíženým, někdy ponižovaným, ale hlavně ignorovaným člověkem. Přitom se však snaží vyhrabat ze své sociální mizérie, bojovat o své lidství a dostat se ke studiu na vysoké škole. Je to dílo o tom, jak člověk dokáže díky své nezdolné houževnatosti překonat příkoří života na potravinových lístcích, podpůrných sociálních programech, ale překonat i odcizenost svých nejbližších. Nad vše ostatní je příběh Stephanie Landové obrazem odvrácené strany tzv.. amerického snu, kde být chudým znamená být poznačeným stigmatem.*****Kniha byla podkladem úspěšného seriálu společnosti Netflix, který si prohlédlo 67 milionů domácností na celém světě.
