What do Philip Pullman and J.K. Rowling have in common that has made both of their stories so successful? What does Pullman listen to while he writes – and who, or what, is Dust? Pullman’s award-winning trilogy His Dark Materials has been appreciated by readers of all ages. It is now set to welcome new fans as it is adapted for television by the BBC in 2018, and the first part of his new trilogy, The Book of Dust, at last sees publication. Nicholas Tucker, a leading authority on children’s literature, writes about the man he knows as a friend. Unpacking and examining Pullman’s life and the sources he drew on for his masterpiece, he explores the world of science, theology, imagination and adventure that Pullman has created. Including a personal interview with Pullman himself, Darkness Visible offers a unique exploration of the author’s work – and its controversies. “Enigmas from His Dark Materials are unraveled… Unmissable for all Pullman readers" Sussex Express Nicholas Tucker is the author of nine books about children, childhood and reading, including The Child and the Book, (Cambridge University Press, 1981 and 1990). He has also written six books for children, broadcasts frequently and reviews in the national press. He lives in Lewes, East Sussex and sometimes finds himself reading aloud the same books to some of his eight grandchildren as he once did to their mothers and father.

Historické thrillery nebo také staromódní viktoriánské krváky, tak Pullman na svých webových stránkách označuje čtyřdílnou sérii knih o Sally Lockhartové. Záměrně v nich zpracovává otřepaná klišé melodramatu a činí tak s gustem a umem dobrého vypravěče. Druhý příběh z kvarteta se opět odehrává v temných, špinavých uličkách i ve vyhlášených salonech a kabaretech viktoriánského Londýna. Sally si v hlavním městě otevřela firmu zabývající se finančním poradenstvím. Její práce však zdaleka nepředstavuje nudnou poklidnou rutinu, jak by se snad mohlo zdát. Když na dveře její kanceláře zaklepe stará dáma a žádá Sally o pomoc v jisté finanční záležitosti, dívka neváhá a podivného případu se ujme. Svou roli v něm hraje zaoceánský parník, který se bez zjevné příčiny potopil, a k smrti vyděšený kouzelník, který zmizel uprostřed představení. Sally se oběma záhadám snaží přijít na kloub a při svém pátrání narazí na spleť stop, které směřují k zločinci z nejvyšších společenských kruhů. Hrdinka se tak každým krokem nevědomky zaplétá do smrtelného nebezpečí… Pro čtenáře od 12 let.

Kniha Prachu, první díl zamýšlené trilogie, nás zavádí do stejného prostředí, v němž se odehrávaly Jeho temné esence (tedy Zlatý kompas a spol.), Pullman ale děj posunul do doby o deset let dříve. Hrdinou je jedenáctiletý Malcolm Polstead, bystrý chlapec s výborným postřehem. Svou nenápadností je přímo předurčen stát se špionem. V hostinci jeho otce se schází celý Oxford. Malcolm a jeho daemon zde nepozorovaně vyslechnou spoustu novinek a klevet. Jenže pak se chlapci do rukou dostane tajná zpráva, v níž se mluví o nebezpečné substanci zvané Prach. Adresátka zprávy Malcolma vyhledá a požádá ho o spolupráci ohledně předávání informací. V hostinci Malcolmových rodičů se totiž začínají objevovat nezvyklí hosté, ať už z nejvyšších společenských a politických kruhů, nebo z podsvětí, a všichni jeví zájem o nemluvně jménem Lyra, kterou mají v péči jeptišky v nedalekém převorství. Turbulentní události a ničivá potopa nakonec způsobí, že se hrdina spolu s vesnickou dívkou Alicí ocitnou ve člunu “La Belle Sauvage”. Na palubě s nimi cestuje šestiměsíční Lyra, kterou čtenáři znají jako hlavní postavu Jeho temných esencí, a obě starší děti mají za úkol dostat ji do bezpečí k jejímu otci, lordu Asrielovi. V knize se opět kromě lorda Asriela setkáme i s Lyřinou matkou, paní Coulterovou, a s Romunem Coramem van Texelem.

Vydejte se s Lyrou za dobrodružstvím až do tajuplné Střední Asie se zastávkou v magické Praze. Trojdílná série Jeho temné esence, tj. Zlatý kompas, Jedinečný nůž a Jantarové kukátko, se stala mezinárodním bestsellerem a předlohou divadelních, seriálových i filmových adaptací. Pullman se do světa, který trojicí knih stvořil, po čase znovu vrátil. Výsledkem je další úžasná trilogie, v níž se opět setkáváme s hrdinkou Lyrou a jejím daemonem Pantalaimonem. V první Knize Prachu s podtitulem La Belle Sauvage (Argo, 2019) byla Lyra teprve miminko, nicméně díky proroctví divoženek už tehdy nadmíru důležité. Druhý díl Knihy Prachu, Tajné společenství, zastihuje dospělou Lyru na studiích v Oxfordu. Její vztah s Pantíkem prochází krizí. Daemon se při jedné osamělé noční procházce stane svědkem vraždy neznámého muže. Do rukou se mu dostane jeho peněženka a s ní i přístup k deníku mrtvého, obsahující výbušné informace. A pak už události naberou turbulentní spád. Mezi Lyrou a Pantíkem dojde k prudké hádce, daemon od Lyry uteče a oba se, každý na vlastní pěst, vydávají na cestu přes celou Evropu až do Asie. Lyra se zastaví také v Praze, kde se seznámí s jistým Václavem Kubíčkem a podivným ohnivým mužem. Cílem Pantalaimonovy i Lyřiny cesty je tajuplné město ukryté v srdci pouště. Shledá se Lyra opět se svým daemonem a odhalí konečně tajemství Prachu? A proč po ní tak sveřepě pátrá mocné Magisterium? "Pullmanův příběh nepřestává probouzet celou řadu otázek... V knize se elegantně mísí aktuální témata, od uprchlické krize v Evropě po problematiku pravdy v postpravdivé době. Pullmanovo vyprávění navíc nepozbývá nic ze své uhrančivosti." (The Times) "Děj se řítí kupředu, plný nebezpečí a překvapení, a přináší výsostnou potěchu z četby. Pullmanova schopnost vystihnout pouhými několika řádky postavu, místo či motiv je téměř zázračná." (New Statesman) "Dlouhá, vyčerpávající, spletitá cesta hrdinů je plná krásy, nebezpečí i filozofických myšlenek." (Metro)

It is twenty years since the events of La Belle Sauvage: The Book of Dust Volume One unfolded and saw the baby Lyra Belacqua begin her life-changing journey. It is almost ten years since readers left Lyra and the love of her young life, Will Parry, on a park bench in Oxford's Botanic Gardens at the end of the ground-breaking, bestselling His Dark Materials sequence. Now, in The Secret Commonwealth, we meet Lyra Silvertongue. And she is no longer a child . . . The second volume of Philip Pullman's The Book of Dust sees Lyra, now twenty years old, and her daemon Pantalaimon, forced to navigate their relationship in a way they could never have imagined, and drawn into the complex and dangerous factions of a world that they had no idea existed. Pulled along on his own journey too is Malcolm; once a boy with a boat and a mission to save a baby from the flood, now a man with a strong sense of duty and a desire to do what is right. Theirs is a world at once familiar and extraordinary, and they must travel far beyond the edges of Oxford, across Europe and into Asia, in search for what is lost - a city haunted by daemons, a secret at the heart of a desert, and the mystery of the elusive Dust. The Secret Commonwealth is truly a book for our times; a powerful adventure and a thought-provoking look at what it is to understand yourself, to grow up and make sense of the world around you. This is storytelling at its very best from one of our greatest writers.

Od udalostí odohrávajúcich sa v La Belle Sauvage uplynulo dvadsať rokov. Vtedy sa Lyra Belacqua ocitla na začiatku rušnej cesty svojho života. V Tajnom spoločenstve ju spoznávame ako Lyru Zlatoústu. Už dávno nie je dieťa... Lyrin vzťah s jej démonom Pantalaimonom sa natoľko kom¬plikuje, že sa obaja dostávajú na miesta a do zložitých situácií, o akých by sa im ani nesnívalo. Aj Malcolm, ten chlapec s loďkou, ktorý sa kedysi odhodlal zachrániť maličkú Lyru pred povodňou a prenasledovateľmi, sa vydáva na cestu, teraz už ako zrelý muž so zmyslom pre povinnosť a s túžbou konať správne. Ich nebezpečné a dobrodružné cesty vedú naprieč Európou až do Ázie za strateným mestom démonov, tajomstvami púš¬te a zá¬hadou tajomného prachu. Z anglického originálu The Book of Dust: The Secret of Commonwealth (David Fickling Books, UK 2019) preložila Oľga Kralovičová. Ukážka z textu Vyzeral ako kuna, no v skutočnosti bol démon. Bolo ťažké povedať, v čom je rozdiel, ale každý človek v Lyrinom svete by to ihneď spoznal, tak ako poznal vôňu kávy alebo červenú farbu. Človek bez démona alebo démon sám, bez človeka v do¬hľade, sa považoval za čosi príšerné, tajomné, nemožné. Ni¬jaké obyčajné ľudské bytosti sa nemohli takýmto spôsobom oddeliť, hoci bosorky to údajne dokázali. Schopnosť, ktorú Lyra a Pan mali, bola zvláštna a draho za ňu zaplatili pred ¬ôsmimi rokmi vo svete mŕtvych. Odkedy sa vrátili domov do Oxfordu po tom čudnom dobrodružstve, nikomu o tom nepovedali a dávali si veľký pozor, aby to utajili; ale niekedy, v poslednom čase častejšie, jednoducho museli odísť jeden od druhého.

Small palaces are full of great secrets, the stories hidden inside their walls having long helped shape the city’s haracter and made it ever more popular. The magic of the Faust House; the Cubist beauty of the House of the Black Madonna; mysterious events connected with Sova’s Mills; tales from the former prison in the Old Vogt’s House; or the children’s stories that once played out in the Storch house: all those and many more can be found within the pages of this book, dedicated to the old buildings that we often pass without a econd thought. The stories, both well-known and nearly forgotten, have a lot to teach out about our nation’s great history; they can both entertain us and guide our steps as we wander through Prague’s ancient, mysterious and beautiful streets.
