Skrytý modlitební život - McIntyre David Martin
Modlitební život lze chápat jako stoupání duše před tvář Boží. Podobá se planetám, jež se nastavují světlu klidné tváře slunce, nebo květině, jež se natahuje ke světlu, prozářená krásou, koupající se ve vůni. Modlitba je zároveň soustředění všech schopností ke chvalořečení v horlivém nadšení, posvátné úctě a lásce. Je nesmysl tvrdit, že skrytý modlitební život je neužitečný a nerealistický. Realita patří do sféry nebeských věcí v pozadí. "Vzorce" a "korespondence" zdejšího světa jsou jen jejich pozemským odrazem. Jak máme přistupovat k modlitbě, co můžeme zlepšovat, čím se nechat inspirovat? Odpovědi na tyto stále aktuální otázky přináší kniha Skrytý modlitební život, jejímž autorem je významný a oblíbený skotský protestantský autor z přelomu 19. a 20. století David Martin MacIntyre (1859-1938). Tato nestárnoucí modlitební příručka, v níž autor na základě detailní znalosti Písma sepsal užitečná doporučení nejvýznamnějších osobností křesťanských dějin od Augustina až po Spurgeona, již změnila život celým generacím čtenářů. Může nás nejen naučit modlit se, ale pokud si její obsah vezmeme k srdci, může se bez nadsázky stát mocným katalyzátorem změn ve světě kolem.

3D život - David Martin
"Dary jsou součástí našeho života v různých podobách. Jsme jimi obklopeni v přírodě i ve světě. Setkáváme se s nimi v lidech, s kterými žijeme, i v okamžicích, které život přináší. Dary Boží lásky nám připomíná liturgický rok - koloběh svátků zpřítomňující události ze života Ježíše Krista. Jsme pozváni k vděčnosti za ně. Kéž nám tato knížka připomíná velké bohatství darů v rozmanitých dimenzích lidského života," uvádí v anotaci svého díla sám autor biskup David.

Rybář na řece Ogh - David Martin
Básnický výbor Rybář na řece Ogh je bilanční knihou autora střední generace, známého pouze v některých literárních kruzích. David jako by sám dělal vše pro to, aby tu tzv. nebyl. (Množstvím vydaných knih - vydal pouze tři, četností svých příspěvků do časopisů, hlasitým zapojením se do debaty.) Dodejme, že se mu to téměř podařilo… Ale to by byla veliká škoda! Kdyby měla přijít vniveč ta řádka jedinečných básní, vytříbených svým tvarem, s plnokrevností metafor a básnických obrazů, často s existenciálním přesahem. Podtrženo sečteno, je to poezie, která teprv čeká na své objevení.

The More the Merrier - David Martin
Get ready to move! Everyone is invited as Bear, Moose, and a medley of forest animals join in an impromptu dance – each in their own way.“I like your moves. But I’m not like you. So I’ll just do what I can do.†Some like to kick their feet and bend their knees to the music. Others prefer to slip and slide ... or swoop down ... or skip high and low! Whatever their style, children will be captured by David Martin’s buoyant rhymes and Raissa Figueroa’s vibrant illustrations as Bear, Moose, Snake, and other forest animals dance to their own groove in a rhythmic celebration of individuality.

Spring Cannot be Cancelled: David Hockney in Normandy - David Hockney, Martin Gayford
David Hockney reflects upon life and art as he experiences lockdown in rural Normandy On turning eighty, David Hockney sought out rustic tranquillity for the first time: a place to watch the sunset and the change of the seasons; a place to keep the madness of the world at bay. So when Covid-19 and lockdown struck, it made little difference to life at La Grande Cour, the centuries-old Normandy farmhouse where Hockney set up a studio a year before, in time to paint the arrival of spring. In fact, he relished the enforced isolation as an opportunity for even greater devotion to his art. Spring Cannot be Cancelled is an uplifting manifesto that affirms art’s capacity to divert and inspire. It is based on a wealth of new conversations and correspondence between Hockney and the art critic Martin Gayford, his long-time friend and collaborator. Their exchanges are illustrated by a selection of Hockney’s new, unpublished Normandy iPad drawings and paintings alongside works by van Gogh, Monet, Bruegel, and others. We see how Hockney is propelled ever forward by his infectious enthusiasms and sense of wonder. A lifelong contrarian, he has been in the public eye for sixty years, yet remains ...

Časopis Milénium má nové majitele a jeho kritici tvrdí, že Mikael Blomkvist kvůli syndromu vyhoření uvažuje o změně zaměstnání. Pozdě v noci Blomkvistovi zavolá profesor Frans Balder, přední odborník na výzkum umělé inteligence. Tvrdí, že má důležité informace o americké zpravodajské službě a že byl v kontaktu s výbornou mladou hackerkou, která se podobá někomu, koho Blomkvist dobře zná. Mikael doufá v exkluzivní reportáž, kterou on i Milénium tak zoufale potřebuje. Lisbeth Salanderová má jako obvykle své vlastní plány. Nadešel čas, aby se jejich cesty ještě jednou zkřížily.

Sancta Familia - David Vaughan, Martin Wels, Tomáš Wels
Knihu vytvořili bratři Tomáš a Martin Welsovi jako dárek pro své rodiče k Vánocům roku 1938. Podařilo se jim zachytit každodenní život jejich rodiny v Praze na konci třicátých let 20. století. Svazek je sestaven z dialogů a scén s výjevy z rodinného života Welsových, v mnoha ohledech dodnes typických, v jiných naopak nepředstavitelných. Autorem ilustrací je výtvarně nadaný mladší ze sourozenců Martin (1925-1944). V knize se střídá čeština s němčinou, tento stav odráží tehdejší jazykovou situaci v Praze. Dále se objevuje angličtina a francouzština. Všechny texty jsou přeloženy a grafické řešení umožňuje, že je kniha jazykově přístupná nejen českému čtenáři, ale i jinojazyčným mluvčím. Název Sancta Familia (Svatá rodina) vyjadřuje zkratkou rodinné vztahy: "Když mají dobrou náladu, mají se moc rádi, a někdy se hádají tak, že by se roztrhli. Rodina, jak má být."V knize jsou zaznamenány obyčejné situace: Martin prochází po ulici Na Příkopě s matkou Idou - mluví německy; na Můstku přechází do češtiny - tak, jak se na Václavském náměstí slušelo -, zastaví se v automatu Koruna pro vepřenku a limonádu.

Audiokniha od autora: Martin Máj, čte: David Novotný. Délka nahrávky: 5 hodin, 35 minut. Druhý výlet do zákeřného lesa. Komedie pro celou rodinu od 8 do 88! I policie v lese mluvících zvířátek má pomáhat a chránit, jenže je prolezlá dřevomorkou stejně jako všude jinde. Její snaživí kadeti Zajíc a Vydra sice v touze po strážmistrovských frčkách dělají, co velitelce na očích vidí, nicméně poručice Bachyně se v úřadu rochní. Jedná zásadně na vlastní kopyto – a vůbec je od doby, co zmizel její choť Kňour, tak trochu svině. A přitom je tu zapotřebí usilovné čmuchání! Nejenže kdosi vykrádá společné zásoby. Především se pohřešuje následník trůnu Koloušek, který měl stanout v čele zdejší monarchie, aby navázal na pořádky vládnoucího rodu Jelenů. Ty jsou však jistému velkému zvířeti silně proti srsti, takže se drama stupňuje. Jakou roli v něm sehraje fotopast, příšera s dvojitou stopou a svědomité vytunelování? Jen počkej, Zajíci! A hlídej si kožich, Vydro!

Love Lucian: The Letters of Lucian Freud 1939–1954 – A Times Best Art Book of 2022 - Martin Gayford, David Dawson
A Times Best Art Book of 2022Reproductions of the young Lucian Freud’s letters alongside insightful context and commentary reveal the foundations of the artist’s personality and creative practice. The young Lucian Freud was described by his friend Stephen Spender as ‘totally alive, like something not entirely human, a leprechaun, a changeling child, or, if there is a male opposite, a witch.’ All that magnetism and brilliance is displayed in the letters assembled here. Ranging from schoolboy messages to his parents, through letters and carefully-chosen, often embellished postcards to friends, lovers and confidants, to correspondence with patrons and associates. They are peppered with wit, affection and irreverence. Alongside rarely seen photographs and Freud’s extraordinary works, each chapter charts Freud’s evolving art alongside intimate accounts of his life. We trace Freud’s early friendships with Stephen Spender, John Craxton, his wild days at art school in East Anglia, and a stint as a merchant seaman. Among the highlights are Freud’s accounts of his first trip to Paris in 1946 and encounters with Picasso, Alexander Calder and Giacometti (who, he thought, looked like Harpo Marx). Equally revealing are letters to and from his first love, Lorna Wishart and second wife, Caroline Blackwood. Among his ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Tento dvouletý 40kilový kříženec, kterého si jako štěně přivezli z psího útulku, se vezl ve speciálním psím vozíku za svým páníčkem, ale velkou část denních etap naběhal po vlastních tlapkách.

For years, frontier lawman turned big-city senator Waxillium Ladrian has hunted the shadowy organization the Set—with his late uncle and his sister among their leaders—since they started kidnapping people with the power of Allomancy in their bloodlines.
