Grandpa's Noises - Gareth St John Thomas

Children love laughing about body noises. In Grandpa’s Noises, a range of sounds and words coming from body and mouth are explained in a warm and funny intergenerational romp ‘Eyenolessgofurawark’ is obviously Grandpa-speak for ‘I know, let’s go for a walk’. ‘Aaaahhh’ means the cup of tea is just perfect, and ‘Pissphusshawertt’ is that sinking sound Grandpa makes when he needs a rest. Of course some sounds — like the ‘Fffffffft’ that sometimes escapes Grandpa’s bottom — need no explanation!

Stanice 11 - Emily St. John Mandelová

Během představení Krále Leara v torontském divadle představitel hlavní role přímo na jevišti zkolabuje a přes veškeré snahy na místě umírá. Tragická událost, avšak nijak neobvyklá. Stačí však jediný strohý dovětek na konci kapitoly a je rázem jasné, že na jeho kolegy i celé lidské pokolení se řítí dosud nepředstavitelná katastrofa. Jen o několik hodin později dopadne na lidstvo "jako atomová bomba" mimořádně smrtící virus gruzínské chřipky a zdecimuje 99 procent světové populace. Na rozdíl od jiných dystopií se ve Stanici 11 mladá kanadská autorka Emily St John Mandelová nezaměřuje pouze na samotné přežití postav v nové realitě dvacet let po tzv. Konci. Jak stojí velkým písmem na boku karavanu kočující herecké společnosti "Symfonie na cestách", která projíždí opuštěnou krajinou kanadských jezer a přiváží hrstkám přeživších krásu hudby a Shakespeara: "Přežít nestačí". Stanice 11 není ani tak románem o apokalypse, ale spíše nadmíru strhující knihou o lidské paměti a ztrátě, nostalgii a snech a o povznášející síle umění, které dokáže přehlušit samotu a zachytit prchavost okamžiku. Emily St. John Mandelová se narodila roku 1979 na západním pobřeží Kanady. Na torontské taneční akademii vystudovala moderní tanec a poté žila krátce v Montrealu, než se přestěhovala do New Yorku. Napsala čtyři romány. ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Henry at Work - John Kaag, Jonathan van Belle

What Thoreau can teach us about working—why we do it, what it does to us, and how we can make it more meaningfulHenry at Work invites readers to rethink how we work today by exploring an aspect of Henry David Thoreau that has often been overlooked: Thoreau the worker. John Kaag and Jonathan van Belle overturn the popular misconception of Thoreau as a navel-gazing recluse who was scornful of work and other mundanities. In fact, Thoreau worked hard—surveying land, running his family’s pencil-making business, writing, lecturing, and building his cabin at Walden Pond—and thought intensely about work in its many dimensions. And his ideas about work have much to teach us in an age of remote work and automation, when many people are reconsidering what kind of working lives they want to have. Through Thoreau, readers will discover a philosophy of work in the office, factory, lumber mill, and grocery store, and reflect on the rhythms of the workday, the joys and risks of resigning oneself to work, the dubious promises of labor-saving technology, and that most vital and eternal of philosophical questions, “How much do I get paid?” In ten chapters, including “Manual Work,” “Machine Work,” and “Meaningless Work,” ...

The most intimate insight into the longest-serving pontiff of our time.Ten years after his death, the popularity and devotion towards John Paul II, the pope who helped bring down communism in his native Poland, the great statesman, and the most-travelled pope in history, remains as strong as ever.Since his early years as a priest in the 1960s, up until 2003, two years before his death, the pope kept a spiritual diary, recording his reflections on God, life, spirituality, the problems facing the church – and his own struggles.Never intended for publication, these diaries were entrusted before his death to his personal secretary, who saw fit to have them published as they represent an unprecedented and important testament to the spirituality of this Christian leader, adored to this day by Catholics and non-Catholics alike.

John Quincy Adams: Speeches & Writings (LOA #390) - David Waldstreicher, John Quincy Adams

''Few presidents ever thought about words as carefully as John Quincy Adams. Thankfully, we can now hear his words again, in this instantly essential volume.''-Ted Widmer, historian and former presidential speechwriter. John Quincy Adams was one of the most accomplished American statesmen of his or any era. He brought all his eloquence, erudition, and fierce energy to bear on the politics of the nation over the course of a remarkable career that spanned from the founding era to the sectional crisis that preceded the Civil War. Despite a persistent interest in this pivotal figure, there has never been a single-volume collection of Adams''s essential political writings, until now. Here, for the first time in an edition for general readers and students alike, are the profound insights of a far-seeing political leader who was also a consummate American stylist. From his prophetic college commencement address in 1787 to his vigorous denunciation of slavery in 1843, this Library of America volume offers a compact and compelling record of America''s fractious evolution as a democratic republic, presenting some of the most important political writings in our history.

This delightful little book pays homage to the cat through artfully curated Japanese poetry and prints.No one captures the graces and idiosyncrasies of cats quite like the painters, printmakers, and haiku masters of Japan. From the Edo to the Showa period, many artists turned their gaze toward an unlikely subject: their small feline companions.

This Other London - John Rogers

Nursing two reluctant knees and a can of Stella, he perambulates through the seasons seeking adventure in our city’s remote and forgotten reaches.When John Rogers packed away his rucksack to start a family in London he didn’t stop travelling. But instead of canoeing up the Rejang River to find retired headhunters in Sarawak, he caught the ferry to Woolwich in search of the edge of the city at Crayford Marshes.This Other London recounts that journey and many others – all on foot and epic in their own cartilage-crunching way. Clutching a samosa and a handful of out-of-date A-Zs, he heads out into the wilderness of isolated luxury apartment blocks in Brentford, the ruins of Lesnes Abbey near Thamesmead, and the ancient Lammas Lands in Leyton.Denounced by his young sons as a ‘hippy wizard’, Rogers delves into some of the overlooked stories rumbling beneath the tarmac of the city suburbs. Holy wells in Lewisham; wassailing in Clapton; a heretical fresco in West Ham. He encounters the Highwaymen of Hounslow Heath, Viet Cong vets still fighting ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Moře klidu - Emily St. John Mandelová - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Čas prý na nikoho nečeká, ale ve 25. století to tak úplně neplatí… Osmnáctiletého britského aristokrata Edwina St. Andrewa poslali rodiče v roce 1912 za Atlantik, aby už nemuseli poslouchat jeho nekonvenční názory. Uprostřed kanadské divočiny však mladík prožije něco, co jím hluboce otřese. Sto let nato se jistý podezřelý cizinec začne zajímat o hudebního skladatele Paula Smithe – respektive o video, jež natočila jeho sestra Vincent na stejném místě, které v minulosti navštívil právě Edwin. A o další dvě staletí později se spisovatelka Olive Llewellynová v měsíční kolonii rozloučí s manželem a dcerkou a vyrazí na pozemské turné se svou nejúspěšnější knihou o pandemii, v níž mimo jiné líčí zvláštní událost podobnou tomu, co se kdysi přihodilo Edwinovi. Tyto lidské osudy propojené prapodivnou anomálií táhnoucí se přes předivo času nakonec sehrají klíčovou roli při hledání důkazu, který dost možná potvrzuje jednu z nejfantastičtějších teorií o povaze reality… Oceňovaný román o umění, lásce a pandemii napříč časem i prostorem.

David Bowie – Kompletní příběh - Chris Roberts, John Aizlewood, Rob Hughes a kol.

Existovala vůbec někdy důležitější série hudebních alb než ta, která David Bowie vydal v letech 1970 až 1980? Jejich žánrová rozmanitost je ohromující, od mystického hard rocku a „mimozemského“ glamu po „plastický soul“ či art rock. Bowie vdechl rockové hudbě nový život a často ji posunul do oblastí, o kterých se mu dříve ani nesnilo. Jakkoli bylo zmíněné desetileté období velkolepé, stojí Bowieho kariéra za pozornost už od dob, kdy ve swingujícím Londýně teprve nesměle aspiroval na příští superhvězdu, až po album Blackstar. To lze považovat za nejcennější dárek na rozloučenou, jaký kdy hudebník dal světu. Bowieho odkaz však nezůstává zapsaný jen v dějinách hudby: byl skvělým hercem ve filmu i na jevišti, průkopníkem internetu, milovníkem umění i kulturním fenoménem. Tato kniha, čerpající z archivů časopisu Classic Rock, mapuje Bowieho jedinečnou cestu. Ponoříme se v ní do příběhů vzniku jeho klíčových alb od Hunky Dory a The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars přes desky, řazené do Berlínské trilogie či Letʼs Dance až po pozoruhodný comeback The Next Day a dechberoucí završení zpěvákovy tvorby v podobě Blackstar. Zaposlouchejte se tedy do „Ziggyho Stardusta“, pusťte si desku Low nebo některé z jeho skvělých přehlížených alb, jako ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Moře klidu - Emily St. John Mandelová

Román o umění, lásce a pandemii napříč časem i prostorem. Edwinu St. Andrewovi je osmnáct, když se parníkem přeplaví přes Atlantik, poté co jej kvůli politickým názorům vyloučí ze společnosti britské aristokracie. Okouzlen krásou kanadské přírody vstoupí do lesa a náhle zaslechne tóny houslí odrážející se od stěn rozlehlé stavby - tento zážitek jím hluboce otřese. O dvě století později se známá spisovatelka Olive Llewellynová vydává na propagační turné své knihy. Cestuje po celé zeměkouli, avšak vlastní domov má v druhé měsíční kolonii. V textu jejího bestselleru o pandemii se nachází zvláštní pasáž: houslista hraje v rezonující chodbě dopravního terminálu a kolem něj se zvedá lesní stromoví. Když začne Gaspery-Jacques Roberts pátrat po jisté anomálii v severoamerické divočině, narazí na několik rozvrácených životů - mladík z britské šlechtické rodiny podlehne šílenství, spisovatelka odtržená od rodiny uvízne na Zemi uprostřed pandemie a jeho vlastní kamarádka z dětství se zřejmě také pokusila o něco, čím narušila časové linie vesmíru.
