For readers of I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy and The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls, a candid and heart-wrenching memoir about child abuse, family secrets, and the healing that begins once the truth is revealed and the past is confronted.Andrea is four and a half the first time her father, David, gives her a bath. Although she is young, she knows there is something strange about the way he is touching her. When her mother, Marlene, walks in to check on them, she howls and crumples to the floor—and when she opens her eyes, she is blind. Marlene’s hysterical blindness lasts for weeks, but her willful blindness lasts decades. The abuse continues, and Andrea spends a childhood living with a secret she can’t tell and a shame she is too afraid to name. Despite it, she survives. She builds a life and tells herself she is fine. But at age thirty-three, an unwanted grope on a New York City subway triggers her past. Suddenly unable to remember how to forget, Andrea is forced to confront her past—and finally begin to heal. This brave debut offers honest insight into a survivor’s journey. Readers will feel Andrea’s pain, her fear, and her shame—yet they will also feel her hope. And like Andrea, they will come to understand an important truth: though healing is complicated, it is possible to find joy and even grace in the wake of the most profound betrayals.

And yet, by 2019, a new generation of UK jazz musicians was selling out major venues and appearing on festival line-ups around the world.

Centering survivors of state, interpersonal, and community-based violence, and highlighting uprisings, campaigns, and community-based projects, No More Police makes a compelling case for a world where the tools required to prevent, interrupt, and transform violence in all its forms are abundant. Part handbook, part road map, No More Police calls on us to turn away from systems that perpetrate violence in the name of ending it toward a world where violence is the exception, and safe, well-resourced and thriving communities are the rule.

‘An amazing book . . . Read it gang, honestly’ Zoe Ball‘I haven''t read a book for a long time that so often had me close to tears’ Observer‘Inspirational . . . You can call this good teaching; what it looks like is love’ Evening StandardThe powerful, inspiring story of Andria Zafirakou, ''the best teacher in the world'', and what it takes to work on the frontlines of education todayArts teacher Andria Zafirakou was always a rule-breaker. At her inner-city London school where more than eighty languages are spoken, she would sense urgent needs; mending uniforms, calling social services, shielding vulnerable teens from gangs. And she would tailor each class to its pupils, fiercely believing in the power of art to unlock trauma, or give a mute child the confidence to speak. Time and again, she would be proved right. So in 2018, when Andria won the million-dollar Global Teacher Prize, she knew exactly where the money would go: back into arts education for all. Because today, the UK government’s cuts and curriculum changes are destroying the arts, while their refusal to tackle the most dangerous threats faced by children – cyber-bullying, gang violence, hunger and deprivation – puts teachers on the safeguarding frontline. Andria’s story is a rallying wake-up call that shows what life is really like for schoolchildren today, and a moving insight into the extraordinary people shaping the next generation.Praise for Andria Zafirakou:‘A magic combination of belief and compassion’ Financial Times‘Andria Zafirakou should be an inspiration to all’ i‘Zafirakou’s generosity offers a gleam of hope in a world that can seem unremittingly dark’ Guardian‘An amazing person . . .

Audiokniha: Dramatizovaná četba kriminálního thrilleru podle skutečné události Kdo vraždil? Byl to vůbec člověk, nebo symbolický černý jezdec, o němž se v kraji tradují ústně vyprávěné historky... Strhující drama nemilosrdného vyvraždění statkářské rodiny s prvky psychologické studie. Námětem knihy Jedlová samota je skutečná událost, která se stala v Bavorsku po světové válce. Pachatel nebyl nikdy usvědčen. Podrobnosti rozkrývají obyvatelé horské vesnice při výsleších na policii. Hlavním vypravěčem je neznámý pozorovatel (jakési Boží oko nebo alter ego vraha). Autorka Jedlové samoty Andrea Maria Schenkelová si do svého literárního příběhu vraha dosadila. Zvolila jednoho z hlavních podezřelých při vyšetřování skutečné události. Přiklonila se tedy k jedné z nejpravděpodobnějších verzí. Jedlová samota byla ověnčena několika literárními cenami, například cenou Deutscher Krimi Preis nebo švédskou cenou Martin Beck Award. V Německu se prodal více než jeden milion knižních výtisků, vznikla úspěšná audiokniha a byl natočen film. Kniha byla vydána také v mnoha dalších zemích světa. V hlavních rolích účinkují: Jiří Dvořák a Lukáš Hlavica Dále hrají: Růžena Merunková, Viktor Dvořák, Andrea Elsnerová, Renata Rychlá, Lukáš Křišťan, Dušan Sitek, Jan Meduna, Oldřich Navrátil, Ljuba Krbová, Simona Babčáková, Kryštof Nohýnek, Marcela Nohýnková, Klára Sedláčková-Oltová, Daniel Šváb, Petr Vršek V dětských rolích: Josefína Bianca Štěpánková a Alberto Tošner Záznam zvuku, střih, mixáž a digitální mastering: Dominik Budil, 2017 Režie: Jindřiška Nováková Andrea Maria Schenkelová Andrea Maria Schenkel se narodila v roce 1962 v německém Řezně. V roce 2006 vydala svůj debut „Jedlová samota", za který obdržela v roce 2007 Německou cenu za detektivní román a Cenu Friedricha Glaubera. Práva na knihu byla dosud prodána do 11 zemí. Svou prvotinou se Andrea Maria Schenkel postarala hned o rozruch. Bylo to detektivkové překvapení posledních let. Kniha byla také namluvena na CD. Stejně si vedl i její druhý detektivní román „Studený led". Jiří Dvořák (1967) Úspěšně vystudoval herectví na Janáčkově akademii múzických umění a vzápětí získal angažmá v Městském divadle v Brně. V roce 1999 dostal nabídku působit v pražském Divadle na Vinohradech, jehož předním členem je dodnes. Je známý spíše z televizních filmů a inscenací, jako POKOJ BEZ OKEN, VŮNĚ VANILKY, BROUK V HLAVĚ a znamenitá detektivka v režii Jiřího Stracha VYVRAŽDENÍ RODINY GREENŮ.

The third volume of Kurkov’s critically acclaimed, intimate and deeply moving war diaries: a poignant, personal account of life under siege in Ukraine – rich with humanity, dark humour, and unforgettable resilience amidst devastation. “Clever, passionate” The Times “The pieces are flawlessly structured; the tone is devoid of self-pity … Yet saturating the book is a note of savage black comedy, the farce of a world made weird by unimaginable violence” Spectator “Uplifting and utterly defiant” Daily Express “No-one with the slightest interest in this war, or the nation on which it is being waged, should fail to read Andrey Kurkov” Daily Mail ______ Andrey Kurkov’s war diaries continue – a searing, deeply human portrait of a nation reshaped by war. In this third volume of Andrey Kurkov’s war diaries, Ukraine’s greatest living writer chronicles the third year of the full-scale invasion from his home in Kyiv and from journeys all over the country – capturing moments of horror, resilience, absurdity and grace with unmatched clarity. Children on a contested border wear hooded bulletproof vests to school; soldiers write haiku; professional clowns go to war; and the mother of a young soldier, killed in battle, uses his compensation money to create a rehabilitation centre for veterans. Roses bloom across Ukraine in quiet tribute to a florist and soldier killed in Avdiivka, remembered by those who once bought his flowers. The Dnipro River seems to slow when the first missiles fall, as though nature itself had paused in shock. In Pokrovsk, 7,500 residents refuse to leave a city that no longer exists – their homes obliterated but their will unbroken. A general’s seventeen-year-old pet toad becomes an iconic symbol of defiance. And buried beneath a cherry tree, a murdered writer’s final diary is recovered, a haunting echo of a silenced voice. From the home front to the trenches, Kurkov captures the rhythms of survival – the quiet rituals, unlikely joys, unexpected humour and appalling costs – in an intimate and deeply moving record of national endurance. Three Years on Fire is a luminous act of remembrance, rich with unforgettable detail and human spirit, from a writer whose voice stands witness to everything Ukraine has lost – and everything it refuses to give up. From the international bestselling author of The Stolen Heart, Death and the Penguin and The Grey Bees ______ Praise for Andrey Kurkov’s war diaries “Andrey Kurkov [is] one of the most articulate ambassadors to the West for the situation in his homeland,” Sam Leith, Spectator “Immediate and important … From the grim incredulity at Russians massing on the border to the displacement of millions of people, this is an insider's account of how an ordinary life became extraordinary. It is also about survival, hope and humanity,” Helen Davies, The Times “Ukraine’s greatest novelist is fighting for his country,” Giles Harvey, New York Times “The author's on-the-ground account is packed with surprising details about the human effects of the Russian assault ... His voice is genial but also impassioned, never more so than when deploring Putin's efforts to erase Ukrainian culture and history. Ukraine, he says, ‘will either be free, independent and European, or it will not exist at all’. That's why the war has to be fought, with no concession of territory. And he remains quietly hopeful that it will be won,” Blake Morrison, Guardian

Audiokniha: Může člověk nenávidět to, v čem vyniká? Autobiografie Andre Agassiho je upřímnou výpovědí jednoho z nejlepších tenistů nedávné minulosti o vlastním životě. Agassi se šokující otevřeností popisuje svůj tenisový i soukromý život, a to od raného dětství, kdy ho – stejně jako předtím jeho sourozence – přivede tyranský otec k tenisu a nutí dennodenně trénovat. Z Andreho vyroste zázračné tenisové dítě, k tomuto sportu však cítí hlubokou nenávist. Kniha představuje pronikavou sondu do duše i mysli mladého muže, kterému nebylo dopřáno normální dětství a musel se vyrovnávat s dominantním otcem i sám se sebou a posléze vzdorovat slávě, ztrátě soukromí, zájmu médií, která ho oslavovala i odsuzovala. V tomto nekonečném boji hledá smysl svého života a často uvažuje o konci kariéry. Agassi do nejmenších detailů analyzuje sám sebe, své niterné pocity, své tápání sportovním i soukromým životem. Mluví i o svých blízkých, přátelích, spolupracovnících a soupeřích (především o Petu Samprasovi), striktně se však vyhýbá jakýmkoli bulvárním podrobnostem. Knihu napsal svérázným, ale fascinujícím stylem; vše se v ní odvíjí v rychlém tempu, s téměř filmovým vyobrazením detailů z autorova života. Otevřenou zpověď o vrcholovém sportu a životě jednoho z nejslavnějších světových tenistů čte brněnský herec Martin Sláma.

An examination of China’s participation in the World Trade Organization, the conflicts it has caused, and how WTO reforms could ease them China’s accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001 was rightly hailed as a huge step forward in international cooperation. However, China’s participation in the WTO has been anything but smooth, with China alienating some of its trading partners, particularly the United States. The mismatch between the WTO framework and China’s economic model has undermined the WTO’s ability to mitigate tensions arising from China’s size and rapid growth. What has to change? China and the WTO demonstrates that unilateral pressure, by the United States and others, is not the answer. Instead, Petros Mavroidis and André Sapir show that if the WTO enacts judicious reforms, it could induce China’s cooperation, leading to a renewed confidence in the WTO system. The WTO and its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, are predicated on liberal domestic policies. They managed the previous accessions of socialist countries and big trading nations, but none were as large or powerful as China. Mavroidis and Sapir contend that for the WTO to function smoothly and accommodate China’s unique geopolitical position, it needs to translate some of its implicit principles into explicit treaty language. To make their point, they focus on two core complaints—that Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) benefit from unfair trade advantages, and that domestic companies, private as well as SOEs, impose forced technology transfer on foreign companies as a condition for accessing the Chinese market—and they lay out specific proposals for WTO reforms. In an age of global trade disputes, China and the WTO offers a timely exploration of unprecedented challenges to the current multilateral system and fresh ideas for lasting solutions.

This book traces the evolution of Bill Beckley’s work through a selection of over 100 works, with critical texts and a conversation with the artist.Bill Beckley is an American conceptual artist and one of the first artists to use photography as a means of artistic expression. In the early 1970s he was part of a loose-knit group of conceptual artists that used images and fictional texts in a form that came to be known as Narrative Art. “I was basically writing a story and taking pictures at the same time. The text evolved with the photos,” he says.In the 1980s he experimented with various materials and his work became more sculptural and pictorial. By the end of the decade, he had found a way to integrate these materials with photography, and this integration became a very important aspect of all his works.
