Fotografická publikace s barevnými snímky ze všech koutů světa od fotografa Jana Halašky (narozen v roce 1956 v Praze, od roku 1979 žije ve Woodstocku v USA) je ukázkou pestré plejády nejrůznějších obrazových postřehů a zážitků z fotografových četných cest po celé zeměkouli. Snímky na jednotlivých dvoustranách spolu vždy nějak souvisejí, jsou si námětově podobné, byť každý odjinud: někdy je to "jen" překvapivé, často i úsměvné, vždy působivé. Jan Halaška už přes dvacet let spolupracuje s fotoagenturami v New Yorku, Tokiu a po Evropě. Své "fotografické výlety" podniká stále, léto však pravidelně tráví v rodných Čechách. Úvodním textem (v češtině a angličtině) doprovází Daniela Mrázková.

Originally hand-printed at her Hogarth Press in Richmond, Monday or Tuesday is the only collection of short stories that Virginia Woolf published during her lifetime, providing a fascinating insight into the early stages of development of themes that would blossom in her later masterpieces.From the impressionist description of four groups of people walking by a flowerbed in the botanic gardens at Kew to the soaring flight of a heron above the teeming life of towns and cities below and the reveries of a woman as she looks at a mark on the wall, the eight pieces included in this volume showcase Woolf’s inimitable observational powers and her boldly modern style of writing.

"There were only a handful of people in the world who still really believed in Suede at the time, and five of them were in the band." - Brett Anderson, Suede"Suede were Marmite at the time, and I was expecting the press to trash them. Every meeting I had with the record company, I was told they were done for." - Ed Buller, Coming Up producer"How did they do that? Comeback of the century." - Select magazine cover, November 1996Here They Come with Their Make-Up On examines in exquisite detail how Suede emerged from the chaotic, ruined remnants of their career and somehow managed to conjure up their most joyously evocative and celebrated album to date. Coming Up—the extraordinary record in question—stumped the band’s most ardent critics and hit the jackpot, with sales that eclipsed those of their first two releases combined. As the band’s publicist throughout that period, Jane Savidge is uniquely placed to reveal exactly how they did it. This book is also a personal journey into the heart of an album that Jane loves—if not unconditionally then as a piece of work that has ultimately survived the ravages of time—and the brutish, nasty, and not-so-short nature of the media scrutiny that had threatened to confine the band to the dustbin of history. In addition, it features yet more outlandish tales from Jane’s time with Suede and those around them back then, as well as new interviews with band members Brett Anderson, Richard Oakes, and Neil Codling, and Coming Up’s producer, Ed Buller.

Sing But Keep On Walking moves between the islands of Mull and Iona and the hills of the West Bank and Jerusalem: places ‘on the edge’. And, like in Palestine two thousand years ago, that’s where God comes to us, in human form, as living Word, as light out of darkness. Some images recur – like flocks of migrating birds or flowing water, like stories of people who work with their hands: sculptors, a carpenter, a baker. Real people, whose lives are celebrated. ‘I’m writing amid political chaos and climate crisis,’ says Jan, ‘with no easy answers … But we can speak truth to power, walk side by side, sing justice. We can live an alternative.’O God, you challenge us to pilgrimage,and you walk with us on those journeys we did not choose. Keep us singing: with joy, with courage, with hope. AmenJan Sutch Pickard is a storyteller and poet living on the Isle of Mull. She is a former Warden of Iona Abbey, and volunteered with the World Council of Churches’ Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme, serving on different occasions in two West Bank villages.

A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life.Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income.In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly, she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”), Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame, and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande, her mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants.Told with refreshing candor and dark humor, I’m Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of shampooing your own hair.

Early 1943 marked a turning point in the battle on the Eastern Front. After the devastating defeat at Stalingrad, the German army was no longer able to take the initiative and control the battle. In the following years, despite tactical victories, the German army would be gradually pushed back until Soviet units eventually reached Berlin and captured the Reichstag. In the meantime, both enemies had learned a great deal and new weapons were rapidly introduced onto the battlefield. On 8 May 1945, this bloody confrontation between the two giants ended in the unconditional surrender of Germany and a new geopolitical equilibrium was created. This titanic battle is illustrated with witness accounts from generals, soldiers and civilians. Attention is not only paid to the course of the battle, but also to the tactics and organisational dimensions of the armies involved, the challenges of the vastness of the country, the dilemmas for civilians caught between the fighting parties and the flight of millions of Germans to the West in an attempt to escape from the atrocities of the Soviet army. The book also considers the role of the Reichsbahn in the field of logistics, and the importance of the innovation and production capacity of both armies. In also pays attention to the origins of the Cold War that was to follow this confrontation and which would last until 1989.

On 22 June 1941, at 0410hrs, Operation Barbarossa began. More than 3 million German soldiers crossed the border with the Soviet Union and moved east, where 4.7 million Soviet soldiers were waiting for them. Hitler expected his troops would be on the Volga before the end of the year and that important cities such as Moscow and Leningrad would have been captured. But the reality was very different; the Germans made impressive territorial gains, but their offensive eventually came to a halt at Stalingrad in December 1942, which proved to be a turning point in the war.This titanic battle is illustrated here using eyewitness accounts from generals, soldiers and civilians. Attention is not only paid to the course of the battle, but also to the tactics and organizational dimensions of the armies involved, the challenges of the vastness of the country, the dilemmas for people in the conquered areas, and the way the Germans tried to conquer their hearts while at the same time fighting a fierce guerrilla war. The role of the Reichsbahn in the field of logistics is also examined, as is the importance of the innovation and production capacity of both armies.

Audiokniha: Z komentáře k původnímu LP albu 01 0296 Jan Pivec bez líčidla vydal Panton v roce 1971 - nyní tento titul vychází v Supraphonu poprvé digitálně: ...Národního umělce Jana Pivce Vám nemusíme představovat jako herce. Postavy, které vytvořil na jevišti Národního divadla, v televizi i ve filmu svou osobitostí a jadrností vstoupily ve všeobecné povědomí a zanechaly ve všech myslích nesmazatelné dojmy. Jan Pivec je vskutku, v plném smyslu slova umělcem národním....Salvy smíchu, zaujetí, okouzlení vzpomínkami z divadelního světa, to všechno umí Jan Pivec v soukromí vzbudit, přirozeně, živelně, bez jakéhokoli patrného úsilí či snahy. V soukromí je Jan Pivec jako na jevišti: osobnost nabitá myšlenkami, city a vzruchy, jako přetopený kotel...Herecké výkony Jana Pivce jsou zachyceny na filmových pásech i zvukových záznamech. Je to však jen část jeho mimořádné osobnosti...Jan Pivec je jako vypravěč tak osobitý, že je nenapodobitelný. Slovy nelze charakterizovat a sdělit to nenapodobitelné a neopakovatelné, čím Jan Pivec okouzluje své posluchače. Takovou řeč jsem svého času vedl s šéfredaktorem gramoredakce Pantonu Jiřím Maláskem. Slovo dalo slovo - a tak jsme při jednom odpoledním posezení u šálku kávy s Janem Pivcem - bez obzvláštních technických příprav a zábran - umístili v kruhu společnosti i mikrofon. Vznikl tak nenucený, nijak nenahrávaný čtyřhodinový zvukový záznam, v němž dominuje vypravěč Jan Pivec, bez líčidel, nenucený, v intimní a neoficiální atmosféře...vybrali jsme úryvky i tak, aby v Pivcově nenapodobitelném vyprávění ožily znovu osoby a historie, kterých současníkem i účastníkem Jan Pivec dlouhá léta byl. Je to celá velká éra vývoje českého divadla, jejíž nedílnou součástí je i jméno národního umělce Jana Pivce. Přál bych Vám, abyste při poslechu této desky - až se nyní pohodlně usadíte v křesle také třeba se šálkem kávy - zažili podobný hezký pocit, jaký jsme měli my, kteří jsme seděli v kruhu s Janem Pivcem při natáčení této desky.

Snímky, které by státní orgány mohly snadno zneužít proti lidem na nich zachycených, musely být dlouhá léta skrývány. Znovu nalezeny byly až na jaře roku 2012 - po téměř 40 letech, když už je všichni považovali za nenávratně ztracené.

She Died Young is the literary work of an astonishing mind in which intellect, madness, art and raw honesty unite. It is as far from a ‘celebrity memoir’ as you can get. With humour, honesty and a poetic sensibility, Brenda Fricker traces a life-journey in which her resilience and inner strength shine brightly. With luminous memories of happy summers in Kerry, where she and her sister Gránia got up to hilarious mischief and learned to rebel against Irish orthodoxy, she also explores devastating personal challenges. She talks frankly of her complicated adult relationships. She describes the difficulty of surviving sexual violence and living with mental illness. Brenda’s contributions to theatre, film and television represent an artistic legacy that few can match. Her work in films like The Field, Swann, The Swallow, Home Alone 2 and My Left Foot is widely acclaimed and her character, Megan, in TV series Casualty, was a huge success. She is the first Irish actress to win an Oscar.
