What a treat to start the year with a talent as fresh as this’ – The Times #39;A big hit in America last year, this buzzy debut about the impact of a terrorist attack in a Kolkata slum on three connected characters is full of hot-button global topics, including violent nationalism. #39; Metro ‘Powerful.

The Electricity of Every Living Thing - Katherine May
From the bestselling author of Wintering, Katherine May, The Electricity of Every Living Thing is a life-affirming and poignant exploration of nature, and how reconnecting to wild landscapes can create peace in our unquiet minds. A windswept tale, beautifully told Raynor Winn, author of The Salt Path A manifesto for the value of difficult people. I loved it Amy Liptrot, author of The OutrunIn August 2015, Katherine May set out to walk the 630-mile South West Coast Path. She wanted to understand why she had stopped coping with everyday life; why motherhood had been so overwhelming and isolating, and why the world felt full of inundation and expectations she can t meet. Setting her feet down on the rugged and difficult path by the sea, the answer begins to unfold.The Electricity of Every Living Thing tells the story of the year in which Katherine comes to terms with a diagnosis which shakes her to her core. It leads to a re-evaluation of her life so far - a kinder one, which finally allows her to be different rather than simply awkward, arrogant or unfeeling. The physical and psychological journeys become inextricably entwined, and as Katherine finds her way across the untameable coast, she also finds the way to herself.What readers are saying about The Electricity of Every Living Thing: Honest and sensitive The astonishing sensitivity and awareness in her writing, both about the beautiful landscapes and nature around on her walks, and in relation to her family, friends and self put paid to many outdated myths about what it is like to be autistic Compelling and transformative. I could not put this book down so I stayed in bed and read it in one go. Katherine has a fantastic way with words, I could read her books for hours on end, they are calming and relatable. Read it - you won t regret it.

Reaching for the Moon - Katherine Johnson
“Captivating, informative, and inspiring…Easy to follow and hard to put down.” School Library Journal (starred review) Inspiring autobiography of NASA mathematician Katherine Johnson, who helped launch Apollo 11. As a young girl, Katherine Johnson showed an exceptional aptitude for math. In school she quickly skipped ahead several grades and was soon studying complex equations with the support of a professor who saw great promise in her. But ability and opportunity did not always go hand in hand. As an African American and a girl growing up in an era of brutal racism and sexism, Katherine faced daily challenges. Still, she lived her life with her father’s words in mind: “You are no better than anyone else, and nobody else is better than you.” In the early 1950s, Katherine was thrilled to join the organization that would become NASA. She worked on many of NASA’s biggest projects including the Apollo 11 mission that landed the first men on the moon. Katherine Johnson’s story was made famous in the bestselling book and Oscar-nominated film Hidden Figures. Now in Reaching for the Moon she tells her own story for the first time, in a lively autobiography that will inspire young readers everywhere.

Catherine Parr - Elizabeth Norton
Wife, widow, mother, survivor, the story of the last queen of Henry VIII. Catherine Parr was enjoying her freedom after her first two arranged marriages when she caught the attention of the elderly Henry VIII. The most reluctant of all Henry s wives, she offered to become his mistress rather than submit herself to the dangers of becoming Henry s queen. This only increased Henry s enthusiasm for the vibrant, intelligent young widow and Catherine was forced to abandon her handsome lover, Thomas Seymour, for the decrepit king. She quickly made her role as queen a success, providing Henry VIII with a domestic tranquillity that he had not known since the early days of his first marriage. For Henry, Catherine was a satisfactory choice but he never stopped considering a new marriage, much to Catherine s terror. Catherine is remembered as the wife who survived but, without her strength of character it could have been very different. It was a relief for Catherine when Henry finally died and she could secretly marry Thomas Seymour. Left with no role in government affairs in her widowhood, she retired to the country, spending time at her manors at Chelsea and Sudeley. It was here that her heart was broken by her discovery of a love affair between her stepdaughter, the future Elizabeth I, and her husband. She died in childbirth accusing her husband of plotting her death. Traditionally portrayed as a matronly and dutiful figure, Elizabeth Norton s new biography shows another side to Catherine. Her life was indeed one of duty but, throughout, she attempted to escape her destiny and find happiness for herself. Ultimately, Catherine was betrayed and her great love affair with Thomas Seymour turned sour.

A Burning House - Brandon Washington
Despite the civil rights progress he fought for and saw on the horizon in the 1950s and 60s, Martin Luther King Jr.—increasingly concerned by America s moral vision, admitted— I ve come to believe that we are integrating into a burning house. In A Burning House, Brandon Washington contends that American Evangelicalism is a house ablaze: burning in the destructive fires of discrimination and injustice. The stain of segregation remains prevalent, not only in our national institutions, but also in our churches, and this has long tarnished the witness of Christianity and hampered our progress toward a Christ-like vision of Shalom—peace, justice, and wholeness—in the world. Common doctrine may unite black and white evangelicals, but rifts such as social ethics and cultural influences still separate us.Throughout this challenging but reconciliatory book, Washington gives a historical and theological appraisal of American evangelicalism to understand how we came to be where we are and what our response should be. Instead of calling the movement to become something new, he challenges it to live into what it has always been in Christ and strive for deliberate and sacrificial integration—the unity of believers of all ethnicities.A Burning House is a rallying call to a waning movement whose most public leaders have often turned a blind eye to, or even justified, the sin of racism—a movement whose theology is sometimes compromised by a secular anthropology. This is a call to both white and black evangelicals to better understand our past so that we can better embrace the unifying and comprehensive message of the gospel we preach.

Rozcházení - Katherine Woodward Thomasová - audiokniha
Audiokniha: „Kniha Rozcházení přináší citlivý a návodný postup, jak v pěti krocích proměnit tragédii rozchodu ne v mnohaletou bolest, ale v nový zdravý začátek.“ – John Gottman, autor knihy Sedm principů spokojeného manželství O knize Do každého vztahu vstupujeme s nadějí, že jsme našli tu pravou či pravého. Statistiky jsou však bohužel neúprosné: mnozí z nás zažijí bolest rozchodu s životním partnerem. Musí však být rozpad vztahu nutně traumatický? A co je tedy nejlepší dělat, když pohádka končí?I když se snažíme rozejít civilizovaně a přátelsky, málokdy se podaří překonat biologické nastavení mozku, který ukončení vztahu vnímá jako ohrožení života a vysílá nám signál k boji. Navzdory tomu se terapeutka Katherine Woodward Thomasová a její manžel zvládli rozvést ohleduplně a s respektem a zachovali si vzájemné přátelství. Na základě této osobní zkušenosti a dlouholeté práce s klienty pak Katherine vypracovala metodu vědomého rozchodu. Díky ní dokážete projít stresující životní etapou bez hlubokých psychických šrámů či nenávisti a probudit nikoli to nejhorší, ale to nejlepší, co ve vás je. Ať už ve dvou, nebo sami, přijměte pomoc v podobě této knihy a zjistěte: – Jak hluboce vás mohou ovlivňovat rozchody staré třeba deset či dvacet let. – Proč je třeba jít ke kořenům a najít své prvotní zranění. – Jak pojmenovat své emoce a chovat se racionálně. – Jak získat zpět vnitřní sílu a uzdravit své zlomené srdce. – Jak najít správnou míru férovosti při dělení majetku. – Jak komunikovat s druhým a zachovat si vlastní důstojnost. O autorce Katherine Woodward Thomasová je respektovaná manželská a rodinná terapeutka, spoluautorka online kurzů a certifikačních školení pro další kouče. Svými články přispívá do mnoha médií. Žije v americkém Los Angeles. „Cílem rozchodu není nutně dosažení spravedlnosti, získání odškodnění či potvrzení, že jsme měli pravdu. Cílem je osvobodit se a jít dál. Získat sílu vybudovat nový a šťastný život prosebe i pro ty, na nichž nám záleží.“ Více o knize http://www.melvil.cz/rozchazeni Sdílejte s hashtagem #rozchazeni

It became clear why she didn⠙t think or behave the way other children did, but faced with school bullies, dismissive doctors and insensitive peers, her difficulties were far from over.
