Till the Boys Come Home - Roger Foss

Ever since the signing of the Armistice in 1918, theatre has played an important part in reflecting the experience of the â ˜war to end all warsâ ™. But on the Home Front, what role did those involved with British theatre play during those tumultuous four years and three months? Till the Boys Come Home salutes British theatre in wartime, when theatres became powerful generators for escapism, for stirring patriotism, for sharing experiences of loss and joy â “ and for raising vast amounts of charity money. It brings to life a Britain where theatre-going peaked in popularity, yet became full of the curious contradictions bred by war. Richly illustrated with original programmes, posters and ephemera, author and critic Roger Foss reveals a theatrical powerhouse, where all sections of the profession â “ from grand Shakespearian knights to lowly concert party artistes â “ were doing their bit, both at home and on the front line.

The Eastern Front - Nick Lloyd

The First World War from a refreshingly unfamiliar angle . . . masterly Dominic Sandbrook, Sunday Times Compelling . . . The Eastern Front is essential reading Margaret Macmillan, Financial Timesâ ˜A masterwork . . . This is the history of the Eastern Front Iâ ™ve waited all my life to readâ ™ Simon Sebag MontefioreThe definitive history of the Eastern Front in the First World War, from the acclaimed military historian and author of Passchendaele and The Western Front***********In the second volume of his landmark First World War trilogy, Professor Nick Lloyd tells the story for the first time of what Winston Churchill once called the unknown war : the vast conflict in Eastern Europe and the Balkans that brought about the collapse of three empires.Much has been written about the fighting in France and Belgium, yet the Eastern Front was no less bloody. Between 1914 and 1917, huge numbers of people - perhaps as many as 16 million soldiers and two million civilians - were killed, wounded or maimed in enormous battles that sometimes ranged across a front of 100 km in length. Through intimate eyewitness reports, diary entries and memoirs - many of which have never been translated into English before - Lloyd reconstructs the full story of a war that began in the Balkans as a local struggle between Austria-Hungary and Serbia, and which sucked in Russia, Germany and Italy, right through to the final collapse of the Habsburg Empire in 1918.The Eastern Front paints a vivid and authoritative picture of a conflict that shook the world, and that remains central to understanding the tragic, blood-soaked trajectory of the twentieth century, and the current war in Ukraine.

Sendvičová rodina - Kristine Bertini

Původní cena: 335 Kč, celková sleva: 70% Jednomu jsou dva roky a druhému osmdesát. Oba vyžadují stálou pozornost a mimořádnou péči, ale jejich potřeby jsou dramaticky odlišné. A společně jsou obrazem novodobého společenského fenoménu, který vstupuje na scénu pod pojmem sendvičová generace neboli „ti uprostřed“. Kdo to jsou „ti uprostřed“? Jde o lidi, kteří se starají o své děti a zároveň o své stárnoucí rodiče. A aby toho nebylo málo, péči nepotřebují jen malé děti a stárnoucí rodiče. I člověk středního věku, který pečuje o své blízké, si zaslouží péči. Kniha nabízí zkušenosti lidí, kteří zažili, co obnáší souběžná péče o malé děti a seniory. Kromě praktických rad, jak zvládnout každodenní rodinný provoz, přináší inspiraci, jak může „ten uprostřed“ pečovat sám o sebe, což je pro něj životně nutné. Knihu využijí především příslušníci „sendvičové generace“, tedy lidé, kteří souběžně pečují o děti a seniory ve své rodině. Osloví i příbuzné a přátele těchto osob a také psychology a zástupce ostatních pomáhajících profesí, kteří přicházejí s těmito lidmi do styku. Kristine Bertini je klinická psycholožka. S tématem má osobní zkušenost – pečuje o své rodiče s demencí a zároveň o dvě dospívající dcery.

Místo snění - David Lynch, Kristine McKennová

Neotřelá kombinace biografie a memoáru dokazuje, že ani kniha o životě a díle geniálního režiséra Davida Lynche nemůže být obyčejná. Vůbec poprvé odkrývá okolnosti zrodu jeho smělých filmových vizí, jako jsou Městečko Twin Peaks, Sloní muž, Mazací hlava, Lost Highway nebo Mulholland Drive. Životopis napsala novinářka Kristine McKennová na základě více než stovky rozhovorů s Lynchovými přáteli, rodinnými příslušníky, bývalými manželkami, herci, agenty, hudebníky a dalšími spolupracovníky. Do textu však vstupuje sám Lynch svými upřímnými komentáři, překvapí například vzpomínkou na pražské natáčení hudby k Modrému sametu nebo zábavnými i ledacos odkrývajícími historkami z dětství a studentských let. Text doprovází téměř stovka unikátních fotografií z Lynchovy soukromé sbírky. Kniha tak pohltí nováčky i lynchovské fanatiky.

Když se jejich matka stane jako první obětí celé řady vražd, zdrcené sestry přísahají, že její smrt pomstí. Bude ale zapotřebí víc než jen kouzel, aby chytily pod krkem mytické netvory, kteří jejich mírumilovné město napadli. Teď musí Hunter s Mercy spojit síly a přijmout svůj osud, jinak riskují, že už se nikdy neuvidí.
