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!

''The Book of St John is too witty to be a manifesto, but it is a sturdy invocation of the need for comfort, generosity and ritual at the table. And it is a gurglingly delightful compendium of - quite simply - delicious ideas and stories'' Nigella Lawson''An unutterable joy from the team behind one of the most influential and important restaurants in Britain ... This is much more than a book of recipes, though (glorious as they are). It’s also about the importance of the table, of feasting, of friendship, of the white cloth napkin on your knee. And it sings of simple but wonderful pleasures: a bacon sandwich and a glass of cider, a doughnut and a glass of champagne.’ Diana Henry, The Telegraph''The Book of St. JOHN, part food gospel, part memoir, part recipe book.''

The spiritual diaries of Pope St John Paul II – published for the first time ever in English. 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.

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. Jeho seriálovou adaptaci připravuje kanál HBO Max. „Mistrovsky vypointovaný, hluboce dojemný vizionářský román se skládá sám do sebe jako zrcadlová síň, aby prozkoumal, co nás spojuje. A kolik neobyčejných náhod nás vytrvale přivádí k jednomu každému dni, v němž je nám dopřáno prostě žít." – Esquire. „Autorka upozorňuje, že klidovým stavem lidstva je krize. (...) Zprostředkovává nám závratný pocit reality přesahující rámec jediné existence a působí oslavně, dojemně, ba nadpřirozeně." – The Guardian. „Výmluvná ukázka autorčina talentu, jenž je schopen čerpat z celé řady tónů i epoch.“ – The Washington Post. „Ještě odvážnější než Stanice 11. Vzrušující, aktuální a ve výsledku naprosto uspokojující čtení.“ – Kirkus Reviews.

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.

May our love for the Sun, the will of God, be as strong as the sunflower?s, so that even in days of hardship and sorrow we will continue to sail unerringly along the sea of life, following the directions of the barometer and compass of God?s will that leads us to the safe haven of eternity.??St John of Tobolsk? This is a thoroughly practical manual of the spiritual life that focuses on the central goal of every Christian: discerning the will of God and struggling to mold our life to it, just as Christ ?humbled Himself and became obedient? (Philippians 2:8). Saint John addresses fundamental questions: Why should we care about God?s will? What are the benefits in following His will? How do we avoid common obstacles to living in accordance with His will? The reader will find practical and eternal wisdom running through these writings that discuss the perennial questions of why a good God permits evil. This is the first English edition of St John?s text, edited and abbreviated for the contemporary reader. St John Maximovitch (1651-1715) was Metropolitan of Tobolsk and all Siberia. He served as a missionary in Siberia and was known for his unpretentiousness and his generosity to the poor. His veneration among the people grew after his repose and he was glorified by the Russian Church in 1916, becoming the last canonized saint of the pre-revolutionary period. He is best known today as the namesake and ancestor of the great 20th-century saint of the Russian diaspora, St John of Shanghai and San Francisco.

Thoroughly revised and expanded for a new generation of readers, this classic guide to enjoying literature to its fullest—a lively, enlightening, and entertaining introduction to a diverse range of writing and literary devices that enrich these works, including symbols, themes, and contexts—teaches you how to make your everyday reading experience richer and more rewarding. While books can be enjoyed for their basic stories, there are often deeper literary meanings beneath the surface. How to Read Literature Like a Professor helps us to discover those hidden truths by looking at literature with the practiced analytical eye—and the literary codes—of a college professor.What does it mean when a protagonist is traveling along a dusty road? When he hands a drink to his companion? When he’s drenched in a sudden rain shower? Thomas C. Foster provides answers to these questions as he explores every aspect of fiction, from major themes to literary models, narrative devices, and form. Offering a broad overview of literature—a world where a road leads to a quest, a shared meal may signify a communion, and rain, whether cleansing or destructive, is never just a shower—he shows us how to make our reading experience more intellectually satisfying and fun.The world, and curricula, have changed. This third edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect those changes, and features new chapters, a new preface and epilogue, as well as fresh teaching points Foster has developed over the past decade. Foster updates the books he discusses to include more diverse, inclusive, and modern works, such as Angie Thomas’s The Hate U Give; Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven; Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere; Elizabeth Acevedo’s The Poet X; Helen Oyeyemi''s Mr. Fox and Boy, Snow, Bird; Sandra Cisneros’s The House on Mango Street; Zora Neale Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God; Maggie O’Farrell’s Hamnet; Madeline Miller’s Circe; Pat Barker’s The Silence of the Girls; and Tahereh Mafi’s A Very Large Expanse of Sea.

Hudební CD - Snad pro ten široký záběr se Noi přes využití víceméně tradiční folkové instrumentace posouvají stylově daleko od typické české „kotlíkařiny”. Muzika Noi byla v minulosti popisována jako pomalejší a snad ještě smutnější verze Čp 8 nebo jako svérázná česká verze písničkářů Nicka Drakea, Elliotta Smithe nebo Michaela Nace. Samotní členové skupiny mají hudební chutě velmi pestré, od jazzu přes klasiku po hardcore (zpěvák souběžně působí v emo - punkových Goro, kytarista ve folkrockové Veselé zubaté). Snad pro ten široký záběr se Noi přes využití víceméně tradiční folkové instrumentace posouvají stylově daleko od typické české „kotlíkařiny”. Velkou roli v projevu kapely hrají ovšem také texty, posluchači často vnímané spíše jako zhudebněné básničky. „Mám dvě hlavní témata,” přiznává P. Wagner, „víru a vztahy. Dá se říct, že nedokážu psát o ničem jiném.” Mimo vlastních textů Noi zhudebnili také několik básní. Na album byl z nich vybrán text Ivana...

Audiokniha: Lidé jsou často přesvědčeni, že úroveň stresu, jemuž jsou vystaveni, určují vnější okolnosti, že stres je nevyhnutelnou součástí jejich života. Lékaři obvykle hledají medicínské řešení těchto problémů a ordinují různé terapie. Tyto postupy jsou však nedostačující, protože se nezaměřují na vnitřní příčiny, které stres aktivují. Společně se svým týmem známý poradce, kouč a tvůrce jedinečného metodologického přístupu k rozvoji osobnosti "Inner Game" v této audioknize aplikuje principy metody (známé převážně ze sportu) na problematiku stresu. Představuje způsoby jak iniciovat patřičné změny, které nám pomohou zvládnout stres a vyrovnat se s ním. Ukazuje, jak si můžeme navzdory faktorům vyvolávajícím stres uchovat duševní rovnováhu, a dosáhnout vnitřní stability, která by nám umožnila odolávat v obtížných situacích vnějším i vnitřním tlakům, jež na nás působí.

A BBC History magazine, Esquire, Historia magazine and Waterstones History Book of the Year 'James comes alive in full flamboyance … Russell expertly weaves the bedchamber gossip into the tapestry of a tumultuous reign' SUNDAY TIMES 'Brings the backbiting and power struggles of the Jacobean court to life with wit and vigour' OBSERVER ‘A warts and all story told with compassion’ PHILIPPA GREGORY _______________________________ ‘Elizabeth was king, Then James was queen.’ – English author (1603) James Stuart, King of England, Scotland, and Ireland did not always love wisely, but he never failed to do so boldly. He fell in love three times – with a Scottish lord, a knight and George Villiers, ‘the handsomest man in the whole world’. He was infatuated three more times – with a Highland earl, a Welsh lord and an English spy. We know so much about the six wives of Henry VIII, why not the six loves of James I? This groundbreaking new book puts James – genius, liar, spendthrift, idealist, witch-hunter – and the men he loved at the centre of one of the most dramatic stories in British royal history. Beginning with the brutal and mysterious murder of his father in 1567, James’s life encompassed kidnapping, witchcraft trials, torture, his mother’s beheading, poison, political radicalism, religious fundamentalism, a queen’s alleged abortion, passionate sex, strong love, stronger hate, espionage, brothels, and a decade-long love affair that ended in assassination. It is unquestionably one of the most gripping stories in British history, retold in Gareth Russell’s Queen James with scholarship, biographical insight and wit. ________________________________ 'Books like this don't come along very often. Told with Gareth Russell's characteristic verve and exquisite eye for detail, it is a story so compelling and surprising that it feels as if it has been hiding in plain sight for 400 years. A stunning achievement and a must for history fans everywhere' TRACY BORMAN

Shada. Dobrodružství čtvrtého Doktora, které se nikdy nedostalo na televizní obrazovku. Scénář k němu však v roce 1979 psal Douglas Adams a Gareth Roberts nyní původní text dotvořil do podoby příběhu plného zvratů, zmatků a časoprostorových paradoxů. Doktor se společnicí Romanou obdrží naléhavou žádost o pomoc od svého dávného přítele profesora Chronotise z Cambridge. Když se ale Doktorova TARDIS roku 1979 zhmotní v knihami přeplněné univerzitní pracovně roztržitého starého profesora, který o žádné zprávě nic neví, zdá se, že Doktora s Romanou nečeká nic než projížďky po řece a spousty šálků čaje. To by ovšem nesměli zaslechnout jakési mrazivě nelidské úpění přicházející zdánlivě odnikud. Navíc profesora tíží jedna záhadná ztracená kniha… Než se Doktor naděje, pronásleduje ho létající koule schopná vysávat myšlenky, která patří Skagrovi, šílenému zločinci, jehož dokonale promyšlený plán na ovládnutí vesmíru může zhatit jen Doktorova chaotická improvizace, při které mu zdatně asistují nejen "humanoidi" Chris a Clare, ale i mobilní počítač K-9. Otázku, kdo je Skagra, brzy doplní ještě znepokojivější otázka: kdo je ve skutečnosti profesor Chronotis? A bude ve vesmíru dál platit druhý termodynamický zákon? A kdo nebo co je Shada? Douglase Adamse (1952-2001) všichni dobře známe jako autora nesmrtelné klasiky Stopařův průvodce Galaxií. Díky němu si hlídáme, kde máme ručník, vogonské poezii se vyhýbáme jako čert kříži a v každém případě se snažíme NEPROPADAT PANICE. Málokdo však ví, že Douglas Adams napsal také scénáře ke třem dílům stejně kultovního britského televizního seriálu Doctor Who (Pán času). Právě díl nazvaný Shada, jehož románovou verzi vám nyní přinášíme, nebyl nikdy dokončen ani vysílán, fanoušci Douglase Adamse i Doktora cestujícího vesmírem se tedy mohou těšit na zbrusu nové dobrodružství. Gareth Roberts (*1968) je britský televizní scenárista a spisovatel, který se proslavil zejména jako dlouholetý autor knižní série příběhů na motivy seriálu BBC Doctor Who (Pán času).
