Ústředním tématem Zusakovy knihy je důležitost a křehkost vztahů mezi nejbližšími lidmi: mezi sourozenci, mezi rodiči a dětmi. Clay a jeho čtyři bratři tvoří soudržnou partu, ale Clay si jednoho dne uvědomí, že bude muset z party vystoupit, i kdyby to mělo znamenat, že se do ní nikdy nebude moci vrátit. Přesto to udělá, aby se pokusil napravit staré křivdy a navázat přervaná pouta. Kniha má rafinovanou stavbu, autor nehodlá hned odkrýt karty, vrací se do minulosti a zas přeskakuje zpět, takže se čtenář jen postupně a v náznacích dozvídá, co pětici bratrů tak stmelilo, co je odtrhlo od jejich rodičů a a co musí a chce Clay podniknout: vystavět most, po kterém by k sobě mohli přejít ti, kdo byli z různých důvodů odloučeni. Ohromující. Úžasná, náročná, hluboce dojemná. Clayův most se jako v kouzelnickém triku odvíjí od konce, autor dovedně odvádí pozornost od toho, co se skutečně děje, a úloha všech těch úkroků se odhalí, teprve když je celá eskamotáž úspěšně ukončena. - Wall Street Journal Markus Zusak sepsal nezapomenutelnou ságu. - US Weekly Zusak ve svém komplexním vyprávění přeskakuje v čase, z místa na místo, z jednoho břehu oceánu na druhý, a vykresluje živý portrét bratrů, kteří se snaží znovu nabýt rovnováhu tím, že oživí příběh své rodiny. - Time Pokud byla Zlodějka románem, který vyklidil jeviště Smrti, pak její rozjasněný následovník je naopak plný života. - Guardian Vřelá a srdečná kniha… Příběh lásky, umění a vykoupení, neurvalý a radostný, se záblesky vtipu a jasnozřivosti, a neskutečně dojemný. - Times of London

Markus Zusak, autor světového bestseleru Zlodějka knih, nedávno zfilmovaného, vydal ještě před tímto zásadním dílem trilogii o bratrech Wolfových. Překlad prvního svazku, Roky pod psa, se nyní dostává také k českým čtenářům. Cameron a Ruben Wolfovi se rvou dnem i nocí, spřádají ujeté plány, aniž by domýšleli jejich důsledky, a pro rodiče, sourozence i všechny holky, které obdivují, jsou to jen budižkničemové, co to nikdy nikam nedotáhnou. Jenže když se Cameron poprvé zamiluje, nic už není jako dřív... Příběh patnáctiletého australského kluka s širokým srdcem a praštěnými nápady je dojemný a zábavný zároveň a Zusak opět nezůstává nic dlužen své pověsti výjimečného vypravěče.

Cameron je z trojice bratrů Wolfových ten nejméně nápadný, není ani fotbalová hvězda jako Steve, ani hezký a okouzlující jako Ruben, který střídá holky jako na běžícím pásu. Cameron jenom sní, že jednoho dne potká dívku, do které se zamiluje a ona do něho. Ale třeba to bude právě Rubenův poslední objev, Octavie s krásnýma zelenýma očima. Jenže která normální holka by chtěla takového lůzra, jako je Cameron? A přece: Octavie je jiná než ostatní Rubenovy lásky a možná Camerona chtít bude... A najednou jsou z obou bratrů zase rivalové... Markus Zusak se narodil roku 1975 jako nejmladší ze čtyř dětí v imigrantské rodině usazené v Sydney. Jeho matka byla Němka a otec Rakušan. První knihou, kterou na sebe upoutal pozornost kritiky i čtenářů, byl Posel (2002). Získal za něj mimo jiné cenu The Children s Book Council of Australia za rok 2003 a Německou cenu za literaturu pro mládež 2007. V roce 2005 vyšlo jeho zatím nejslavnější dílo Zlodějka knih (česky Argo, 2009). K jeho napsání Zusaka inspirovalo vyprávění prarodičů o bombardování Mnichova za druhé světové války a o holocaustu. Román se stal mezinárodním bestselerem.

A sparkling new translation of one of the greatest travel books ever written: Marco Polo s seminal account of his journeys in the east.Marco Polo was the most famous traveller of his time. His voyages began in 1271 with a visit to China, after which he served the Kublai Khan on numerous diplomatic missions. On his return to the West he was made a prisoner of war and met Rustichello of Pisa, with whom he collaborated on this book. His account of his travels offers a fascinating glimpse of what he encountered abroad: unfamiliar religions, customs and societies; the spices and silks of the East; the precious gems, exotic vegetation and wild beasts of faraway lands. Evoking a remote and long-vanished world with colour and immediacy, Marco s book revolutionized western ideas about the then unknown East and is still one of the greatest travel accounts of all time.For this edition - the first completely new English translation of the Travels in over fifty years - Nigel Cliff has gone back to the original manuscript sources to produce a fresh, authoritative new version. The volume also contains invaluable editorial materials, including an introduction describing the world as it stood on the eve of Polo s departure, and examining the fantastical notions the West had developed of the East.

Here he takes readers past the locker-room door and reveals the inner workings of a professional club, the exhilarating highs and crushing lows, and what it s really like to do the job most of us can only dream of doing.TFS chronicles the exploits of his Premiership colleagues with a gimlet eye and frank humour. Managers, agents and players are not spared from his observations - their mindsets, their relationships with those outside the sport, their behaviour good and bad. In his inimitable style, TSF recounts entertaining and eyebrow-raising vignettes, naming names and dropping colourful details along the way.

The final novel by Marios Chakkas, one of GreeceÂ’s most well-known and evocative writers.A legend in his home country of Greece but virtually unknown abroad, The Commune is the final work of Marios Chakkas, composed in the months preceding his early death in 1972. Chakkas was born under the Fascist regime and reared as a socialist revolutionary, and The Commune is his reckoning with the uncertainty of the past and the madness of the present as the military junta secures its position and the spirit of the socialist insurrection fades. Returning from political exile, Chakkas confronts the decay and ruin of his Athenian neighborhood as he recounts childhood gunfights in the streets, churches filled with asbestos, vanished comrades, and violent squabbles over memorials for executed partisans in his singular voice which swerves from scorching poetic indignation to gallows humor to metaphysical meditation.

20 years later The Music of the Primes is still a groundbreaking popular science book. This new edition features updates from the author and a foreword by actor and director, Simon McBurney.In 1859, the German mathematician Bernhard Riemann presented a paper to the Berlin Academy which would change the history of mathematics. The subject was the strange and enigmatic prime numbers. At the heart of the presentation was an idea, a hypothesis, that Riemann had not yet proved but which has come to obsess mathematicians for the last 150 years. No one knows if he ever found the proof; on his death his housekeeper burnt all the personal papers. Today, the hypothesis is considered by many the holy grail of mathematics but has significance far beyond maths.At the of the heart of the enigma is a prize much larger than just intellectual glory; not only is there a $1 million reward for the person who can crack it but also is the key to all banking and e-commerce security. It is the idea that brings together many other areas of science and has ramifications within Quantum Mechanics, Chaos Theory and the future of computing.In The Music of the Primes , one of Britain s leading mathematicians, Marcus du Sautoy, recounts the history of these elusive numbers. It is a story of eccentric and brilliant men, last minute escapes from death, strange journeys, dangerous ideas and the unquenchable thirst for knowledge that drove some men mad and others to unparalleled glory. du Sautoy also tells a coruscating history of Mathematics. Combining in-depth knowledge as a practitioner in the field with narrative flair, this book will become a classic of popular science writing and will rank alongside Chaos and Fermat s Last Theorem within the genre.The Riemann Hypothesis:â ¢ Compared to Fermat s Last Theorem, the Hypothesis is mathematiciansâ ™ real Holy Grailâ ¢ Is the only problem from Hilbert s 1900 Centenary Problems that was unproved in the 20th century and now has a $1 million reward for the person who cracks it.â ¢ The Hypothesis is the key to all Internet and e-commerce security
