The Story of My Life - Helen Keller

When she was 19 months old, Helen Keller (1880-1968) suffered a severe illness that left her blind and deaf. Not long after, she also became mute. Her tenacious struggle to overcome these handicaps -- with the help of her inspired teacher, Anne Sullivan -- is one of the great stories of human courage and dedication. In this classic autobiography, first published in 1903, Miss Keller recounts the first 22 years of her life, including the magical moment at the water pump when, recognizing the connection between the word water and the cold liquid flowing over her hand, she realized that objects had names. Subsequent experiences were equally noteworthy: her joy at eventually learning to speak, her friendships with Oliver Wendell Holmes, Edward Everett Hale and other notables, her education at Radcliffe (from which she graduated cum laude), and-underlying all-her extraordinary relationship with Miss Sullivan, who showed a remarkable genius for communicating with her eager and quick-to-learn pupil. These and many other aspects of Helen Keller s life are presented here in clear, straightforward prose full of wonderful descriptions and imagery that would do credit to a sighted writer. Completely devoid of self-pity, yet full of love and compassion for others, this deeply moving memoir offers an unforgettable portrait of one of the outstanding women of the twentieth century.

Counterfeit Gods - Timothy Keller

The issue of idolatry has been with the human race for thousands of years; the subtle temptation is always to take what is good and turn it into the ultimate good, elevating it above all other things in the search for security and meaning. In this timely and challenging book, New York pastor Timothy Keller uses classic Bible stories to look at the issue of idolatry - from the worship of actual idols in the Old Testament, to the idolatry of money by the rich young ruler when he was challenged by Jesus to give up all his wealth. Keller cuts through our dependence on the glittering false idols of money, sex and power to uncover the path towards trust in the real ultimate - God. Today s idols may look different from those of the Old Testament, but Keller argues that they are no less damaging. Culturally transforming as well as biblically based, COUNTERFEIT GODS is a powerful look at the temptation to worship what can only disappoint, and is a vital message in today s current climate of financial and social difficulty.

The French Laundry Cookbook - Thomas Keller, Deborah Jones

IACP Award Winner 2019 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the acclaimed French Laundry restaurant in the Napa Valley⠔⠜the most exciting place to eat in the United States⠝ (The New York Times). The most transformative cookbook of the century celebrates this milestone by showcasing the genius of chef/proprietor Thomas Keller himself. Keller is a wizard, a purist, a man obsessed with getting it right. And this, his first cookbook, is every bit as satisfying as a French Laundry meal itself: a series of small, impeccable, highly refined, intensely focused courses. Most dazzling is how simple Keller s methods are: squeegeeing the moisture from the skin on fish so it sautées beautifully; poaching eggs in a deep pot of water for perfect shape; the initial steeping in the shell that makes cooking raw lobster out of the shell a cinch; using vinegar as a flavor enhancer; the repeated washing of bones for stock for the cleanest, clearest tastes. From innovative soup techniques, to the proper way to cook green vegetables, to secrets of great fish cookery, to the creation of breathtaking desserts; from beurre monté to foie gras au torchon, to a wild and thoroughly unexpected take on coffee and doughnuts, The French Laundry Cookbook captures, through recipes, essays, profiles, and extraordinary photography, one of America s great restaurants, its great chef, and the food that makes both unique. One hundred and fifty superlative recipes are exact recipes from the French Laundry kitchen⠔no shortcuts have been taken, no critical steps ignored, all have been thoroughly tested in home kitchens. If you can t get to the French Laundry, you can now re-create at home the very experience Wine Spectator described as ⠜as close to dining perfection as it gets.⠝

What is Wrong with the World? - Timothy Keller

Everywhere we look, we see brokenness: wars, cruelty, and heartache and much more. We feel it in the world around us and in our own lives. How did it get to be this way?During his tenure as founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, Timothy Keller explained on a weekly basis how the Bible provides the most comprehensive and sophisticated response to the fundamental questions of life. In What Is Wrong with the World?, based on a series of teachings given at Redeemer, Keller answers the title s pressing question by revealing that the only thing that can account for the world s pain and chaos is what the Bible calls sin. This clear-eyed and ultimately hopeful book reveals how sin is not simply a bad thing we do, but something much more subtle and complex, affecting our relationships, our thinking, and every aspect of our existence. And only when we recognize sin for what it is can we find the profound, life-transforming answer our souls long for. What Is Wrong with the World? is for anyone who:Feels overwhelmed at the state of the worldBattles with repeated mistakes and poor choicesDesires more than pat answers to difficult questionsWonders how to know joy while still acknowledging painWants to understand how God s love gives hope even in the hardest of places.Today s battles across the globe and in our own hearts are not the end of the story. As Keller writes, If we stand any chance of answering the question of what is wrong with the world . . . we must begin with understanding the complexity and multifaceted nature of sin, and end with understanding the unfailing love of a God who chooses to save us from it. This book will show you how.

Jan Keller sleduje politické dění velmi pečlivě a soustavně, vyslovuje se bez prodlení a bez servítků. Píše komentáře, jako se jiní věnují osobním deníkům. Rozdíl je v tom, že Keller se nezabývá sebou, ale jde mu o společnost, o to, jak tady v Česku žijeme, kdo a co tady dělá, kdo nám lže a co za tím může být. Kniha Jsme tady doma je uspořádaná do deseti kapitol. Každá z nich představuje některé z klíčových politických témat: od zadlužování k pohledu na to, co je dnes levice a pravice. Jde tak o svéráznou kroniku doby doplněnou slovníčkem vybraných politických aktérů, kteří po sehrané roli často mizí do zapomnění.

As the pastor of an inner-city church in New York City, Timothy Keller compiled a list of the most frequently voiced doubts skeptics brought to his church, as well as the most important reasons for faith. In this book, he addressed each doubt and provides reasoned arguments for belief. Drawing on literature, philosophy, real-life conversations, and logical reasoning, Keller explains how faith in the Christian God is a soundly rational belief - one embraced by thoughtful individuals of intellectual integrity and deep compassion for those who truly want to know the truth.

So, while she s initially aghast when Mr. Nagg comes home with a spell book purloined from the local wizard, she soon starts to think: what harm could a little magic do?As Isabella embarks on a journey of self-discovery with a grouchy cat-like companion, Darkshire s imagination runs wild, plunging readers into a delightfully deranged world full of enchantment, folklore, and an entrepreneurial villain running a magical Ponzi scheme.Cosy, full of wit and Pratchett-ian footnotes, Isabella Nagg and the Pot of Basil is a book for those who can t help but find magic even in the oddest and most baffling circumstances; a story about claiming a new life and finding oneself - and also goblins, capitalism, and sorcery.NetGalley readers love Isabella Nagg and the Pot of Basil:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had me completely enthralled from start to finish ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A really hilarious cozy fantasy ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A delightful read . . . I found myself legitimately laughing aloud ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I described this book to a friend today as clever funny . . . I will likely read this again in the future as I enjoyed it that much...which is pretty much the highest praise I can offer

Zatí Fenomenální zpěvačka s kubánsko-polskou krví Yvonne Sanchez přichystala k vydání již třetí album, jednoduše a výstižně nazvané Songs About Love. Zpívá na něm s láskou a o lásce, o citech starých jako lidstvo, ale zároveň se vypravila do nových světů. Tahle dáma totiž nemá zapotřebí opakovat se. Zatímco úspěšná deska My Garden (2008) představovala bohatě aranžovaný autorský výlet do pop-jazzových hájemství, tentokrát se Yvonne vrátila převážně ke standardům. Ovšem úplně jinak než na debutu Invitation (2002), natočeném s doprovodem jazzového comba. Zvolila totiž průzračnou, komorní podobu písní, interpretovaných jen za doprovodu kytary. O to víc vynikne...

Perfumes - Turin Luca, Sanchez Tania

I ve long wished perfumery to be taken seriously as an art, and for scent critics to be as fierce as opera critics, and for the wearers of certain fragrances to be hissed in public, while others are cheered. This year has brought Perfumes: The Guide by Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez, which I breathed in, rather than read, in one delighted gulp. Hilary Mantel, GuardianPerfumes: The Guide is the culmination of Turin s lifelong obsession and rare scientific flair and Sanchez s stylish and devoted blogging about every scent that she s ever loved and loathed. Together they make a fine and utterly persuasive argument for the unrecognised craft of perfume-making. Perfume writing has certainly never been this honest, compelling or downright entertaining.

The Soul of a Woman - Isabel Allende

_______________ An autobiographical meditation on feminism, power and womanhood ⠦ Full of Isabel s wisdom and warm words - Grazia In her small, potent polemic . . . Isabel Allende writes about the toxic effects of ⠜machismo⠝, combining wit with anger as she picks apart the patriarchy - Independent Allende has everything it takes: the ear, the eye, the mind, the heart, the all-encompassing humanity - New York TimesAn Independent, Guardian and Grazia Highlight for 2021_______________The wise, warm, defiant new book from literary legend Isabel Allende ⠓ a meditation on power, feminism and what it means to be a womanWhen I say that I was a feminist in kindergarten, I am not exaggerating.As a child, Isabel Allende watched her mother, abandoned by her husband, provide for her three small children. As a young woman coming of age in the late 1960s, she rode the first wave of feminism. She has seen what has been accomplished by the movement in the course of her lifetime. And over the course of three marriages, she has learned how to grow as a woman while having a partner, when to step away, and the rewards of embracing one s sexuality.So what do women want? To be safe, to be valued, to live in peace, to have their own resources, to be connected, to have control over their bodies and lives, and above all, to be loved. On all these fronts, there is much work to be done, and this book, Allende hopes, will ⠘light the torch of our daughters and granddaughters with mine. They will have to live for us, as we lived for our mothers, and carry on with the work still left to be finished.⠙_______________ Her thoughts, language and ideas traverse fluidly through ideas of gender, historic injustices, her marriages and bodily experiences and literary references . . .

Hybridní politika - Jan Keller

Profesor Keller ve své nejnovější knize ukazuje, jak se změnil ráz politiky v západním světě, a proč se tak změnil. Proč pravicové strany přestaly hájit lidskou svobodu a proč levicové strany přestaly hájit zájmy chudých. Autor o ní říká v úvodu toto: Žijeme ve velmi zvláštní době. Levicové politické strany prohrávají volby a prakticky ve všech zemích jsou na ústupu. Globální kapitalismus triumfuje ve stále dalších a dalších zemích. Všude se privatizuje. Sociální státy - někdejší pýcha levicové ideologie - jsou neúnosně zadluženy. Mluví se stále vážněji o agónii levice. Ve stejné době přitom zaznívá varování, že levicoví kulturní revolucionáři ovládli klíčové instituce a hrozí zlikvidovat celou západní kulturu. Z vysokých škol a z médií se šíří ideologie rovnostářství právě v době, kdy se rozevírají sociální nůžky a narůstají ekonomické nerovnosti v rovině příjmů i majetků. Velké nadnárodní koncerny a úspěšní miliardáři tyto revoluční výzvy, namířené údajně proti jejich moci, plně podporují. K vítězství levičáků toužících převychovat člověka dochází v téže době, kdy je každý člověk povinen pohlížet na sebe jako na podnikatele se sebou samým a všemožně usilovat o zhodnocení svého lidského kapitálu. Ve stejné době, kdy nadnárodní koncerny řízené v naprosté většině bílými muži diktují své podmínky celým státům a kontinentům, je bílý muž obviňován za svoji rasistickou a koloniální minulost. Z ekonomicky nejvyspělejších kapitalistických zemí přichází volání po kulturní revoluci ne nepodobné tomu, co mělo kdysi dovést ke komunismu rozvojovou Čínu. Ke kulturní revoluci se hlásí především dobře situovaní příslušníci vyšších středních vrstev. Chtějí dělat revoluci namířenou proti zastaralému myšlení nižších středních vrstev. Těm, kdo jsou úplně nahoře, to ani v nejmenším nevadí. Těm, kdo jsou úplně dole, to ani v nejmenším nepomáhá. Tato kniha pojednává o hybridní politice, tedy o velice zvláštní dělbě práce mezi pravicovými neoliberály, kteří zdeformovali liberalismus, a levicovými neomarxisty, kteří zkarikovali marxismus.

Dává Bůh smysl? - Timothy Keller

Žijeme ve věku skepticismu. Naše společnost tak hluboce věří v empirický rozum, dějinný pokrok a procítěné emoce, že je snadné položit si otázku: Proč by vůbec někdo měl věřit v křesťanství? Proč by měl někdo potřebovat náboženství? Autor vyvrací mylný dojem, že pod vlivem sekularismu a lidského pokroku zaniká náboženství. Náboženství je důležitější, než si myslíte. Přesvědčení o individuální svobodě, lidských právech a rovnosti se neslučuje s představou, že se lidské bytosti staly tím, čím jsou, na základě přežití nejzdatnějších. Křesťanství dává smysl. Keller vysvětluje, proč je rozumné věřit v Boha, a proč dává největší smysl víra v křesťanství. Tato kniha je jednou z nejlepších Kellerových knih pro věřící i skeptiky. V dnešní době nedává větší smysl jen víra v křesťanského Boha jako taková, ale v tomto šíleném světě dává Bůh větší smysl i samotné lidské existenci.

Teď, když máme, co jsme chtěli - Jan Keller

Už je to téměř dvacet let, co lidé vystoupili proti neudržitelným poměrům. Proti poměrům, kdy mocní, kteří mysleli jen na sebe, kárali ty dole, že se málo snaží. Proti poměrům, kdy politika byla považována za obživu lidí, kteří nemají odborně ani lidsky na to, aby se živili nějak poctivěji. Proti poměrům, kdy konexe a známosti byly důležitější než podaný výkon. Proti poměrům, kdy suverenita země byla omezena pobytem cizích vojáků na našem území. Dvacet let je v českých dějinách ideální doba k bilancování. Ve více než stovce krátkých textů sociolog Jan Keller ukazuje, jak nepříjemně dnešní poměry připomínají časy, které jsme si přáli jednou pro vždy překonat.

Letter from New York - Helene Hanff

Manderley Press is delighted to announce the publication of a brand-new edition of Helene Hanff s Letter from New York - another literary jewel from the author of 84, Charing Cross Road. To showcase this wonderful book, we commissioned the New York Times bestselling author Jean Hanff Korelitz (The Plot) to pen a new introduction - she is a cousin of Helene Hanff s, and was inspired to become a writer after meeting her as a teenager. The front cover was specially designed by New Yorker illustrator Bruce Eric Kaplan, also a fan of the author and a resident of New York City too. Over several years, Helene Hanff read aloud these stories of her life in New York for BBC Radio 4 s Woman s Hour. This book is a collection of selected scripts from this series, composed with a British audience in mind, in which the author offers us a glimpse into her own everyday tales of the city. Written in her trademark whimsical and upbeat style, Helene Hanff transports us right to the heart of Manhattan in the 1980s, describing her favourite places, people and pets with gentle humour, and introducing the reader to the ups and downs of life in a high-rise apartment building in New York City ( the last small town in America ). We are introduced to Bentley, the Old English Sheepdog belonging to a neighbour who captured the author s heart; we take a stroll through the beautiful Shakespeare s Garden in Central Park; and we join the author to enjoy annual city parades down Fifth Avenue - especially the St Patrick s Day parade, when the whole of New York turned green. And we meet Helene s friends: Arlene, whose glamorous social life - and wardrobe - puts Hanff s tiny apartment and simple writer s life into perspective, and Nina, whose garden on the sixteenth-floor overflows with flowers and fruit trees. Finally, we accompany the author as she travels to London to celebrate the opening night of the dramatisation of her best-selling book 84, Charing Cross Road. What started out as a six-month trial in 1978 eventually turned into a six-year project, during which time Helene Hanff captivated radio audiences with her monthly broadcasts - each one a love letter to her beloved NYC. Long before the cast of Friends - and Sarah Jessica Parker s iconic evocation of life in the city - recreated a New York existence for us to experience vicariously, these 5-minute vignettes were the perfect way for native New Yorkers and international readers alike, to revel in the quotidian as well as the glamour of city life, and to discover the unexpected hidden gems - and treasured traditions - of New York City. Letter from New York is still a delight to read, 40 years after it was first written - a timeless and beguiling tale of everyday life in this great city, by one of the best-loved authors of the 20th-century.

Helen Jukes Srdce včely má päť komôr, slovensky Provedení: Tištěná kniha

A na krátky okamih, obklopená cezmínou, ktorá mi prepichuje nohavice, zabudnem, kde som. Zabudnem na dom, ktorý zatiaľ nepovažujem za domov, a na hektickú prácu. Vtedy príde tá myšlienka. Tu by mohli byť včely, napadne mi a moja myseľ sa vzápätí rozbehne ako stádo divokých koní. Prekvapene odstúpim. Helen Jukes sa na prahu tridsiatky cíti uväznená v mestskom kolotoči kancelárskych intríg a dočasných adries. Snaží sa vybudovať zázemie v podobe novej práce v Oxforde, ale uvedomí si, že ak túži viesť zmysluplný život naplnený láskou a prácou, musí sa zmeniť. Práve vtedy jej priatelia venujú včelstvo (podľa starých legiend darované včely prinášajú šťastie) a z Helen sa postupne stáva včelárka. Čo však znamená starať sa o týchto divokých tvorčekov a prežiť s nimi jeden celý rok? Ako môžu nové poznatky o včelách prispieť k objavovaniu seba samej? A prinesie jej cesta do útrob úľa uvoľnenie? Táto kniha je rovnako prekvapujúca, krásna a neobyčajná ako život včiel v úli. - Helen MacDonald, autorka knihy J jako jestřáb Zatiaľ čo Helen hľadá svoje miesto v úžasnom ekosystéme úľa, samotný chov jej prináša nový pohľad na život. Prehlbuje jej staré i nové vzťahy a do sveta okolo nej vnáša svetlo. Helenino rozprávanie je fascinujúcou výpravou po stopách včiel, premenách ich príbytku i exkurzom do histórie nášho skúmania včelstva. Kniha predstavuje úchvatné zamyslenie nad zodpovednosťou a starostlivosťou, zraniteľnosťou a dôverou, vytváraním nových pút a nad vstupom na doteraz nepreskúmané územia. Autorka Helen Jukes je britská spisovateľka a včelárka. Na univerzite v Oxforde prednáša tvorivé písanie. Jej práce sa objavili v Caught by the River, BBC Wildlife, Resurgence, Junket a LITRO.

Snaží sa vybudovať zázemie v podobe novej práce v Oxforde, ale uvedomí si, že ak túži viesť zmysluplný život naplnený láskou a prácou, musí sa zmeniť. Práve vtedy jej priatelia venujú včelstvo (podľa starých legiend darované včely prinášajú šťastie) a z Helen sa postupne stáva včelárka. Čo však znamená starať sa o týchto divokých tvorčekov a prežiť s nimi jeden celý rok? Ako môžu nové poznatky o včelách prispieť k objavovaniu seba samej? A prinesie jej cesta do útrob úľa uvoľnenie? Táto kniha je rovnako prekvapujúca, krásna a neobyčajná ako život včiel v úli. - Helen MacDonald, autorka knihy J jako jestřáb Zatiaľ čo Helen hľadá svoje miesto v úžasnom ekosystéme úľa, samotný chov jej prináša nový pohľad na život. Prehlbuje jej staré i nové vzťahy a do sveta okolo nej vnáša svetlo. Helenino rozprávanie je fascinujúcou výpravou po stopách včiel, premenách ich príbytku i exkurzom do histórie nášho skúmania včelstva. Kniha predstavuje úchvatné zamyslenie nad zodpovednosťou a starostlivosťou, zraniteľnosťou a dôverou, vytváraním nových pút a nad vstupom na doteraz nepreskúmané územia. Autorka Helen Jukes je britská spisovateľka a včelárka. Na univerzite v Oxforde prednáša tvorivé písanie. Jej práce sa objavili v Caught by the River, BBC Wildlife, Resurgence, Junket a LITRO. Spolupracuje s Bee Friendly Trust – neziskovou organizáciou, usilujúcou sa o zvýšenie nášho povedomia o živote včelstva a podporujúcou starostlivosť o udržateľné zdroje. Žije vo Wye Valley
