ikabog joanne k rowlingova

Originální pohádkový příběh od věhlasné autorky, která napsala sérii Harry Potter | Napínavé vyprávění plné naděje, které ilustrovalo 34 českých dětí. Království jménem Přehršlánie bývalo nejšťastnější na světě. Oplývalo spoustou zlata, zdejší král měl nejkrásnější knír ze všech a po místních dobrotách lidé tančili blahem. Jen v mlžném Mokřadu na severu žil podle legendy strašlivý Ikabog. Všichni věděli, že jsou to povídačky, ale ty někdy začnou žít vlastním životem. Co když se taková legenda rozhodne srazit království na kolena a unést dvě děti ve víru dobrodružství, o které ani za mák nestály? Ikabog je původní pohádka, kterou J. K. Rowlingová napsala před více než deseti lety a četla ji před spaním svým dvěma menším dětem. Přestože se jí samotné příběh moc líbil, časem se smířila s tím, že jej budou znát jen její děti. K vydání oblíbeného rodinného příběhu se rozhodla právě teď, aby pobavila děti, rodiče a opatrovníky uvězněné doma během pandemie Covid-19. Příběh je zamýšlen k předčítání, je zasazen do vymyšleného království a jde o samostatný text, který nijak nesouvisí s jinými knihami autorky, přestože obsahuje témata, kterým se J. K. Rowlingová často věnuje.

Autorka úspěšné série knih o Harrym Potterovi, J. K. Rowlingová, vydá v září svůj první román pro dospělé, který se bude jmenovat The Casual Vacancy (Prázdné místo). Podle jejího vydavatele Little, Brown půjde o černou komedii situovanou do anglického města Pagfordu, které není tak idylické, jak se na první pohled zdá. Román se vyznačuje černou komikou, nutí k přemýšlení a neustále překvapuje, uvádí se v prohlášení nakladatelství. Pagford je zdánlivě idylické anglické městečko s dlážděným náměstím a starobylým opatstvím, ale za hezkou fasádou je město ve válce, naznačuje děj nakladatel. Bohatí jsou ve válce s chudými, teenageři s rodiči, manželky s manželi, učitelé se žáky. Zápletka začíná úmrtím čtyřicátníka Barryho Fairweathera, které obyvatele městečka šokuje. Prázdné místo, které po Barrym zůstane v radě farnosti, se brzy stane katalyzátorem pro největší válku, jakou město zažilo. Kdo bude triumfovat ve volbách provázených vášněmi, pokrytectvím a nečekanými odhaleními? píše nakladatelství Little, Brown. Již v únoru Rowlingová řekla, že její příští kniha bude velmi odlišná od série s Harrym Potterem . Současně tehdy zdůraznila, že úspěch knih o čarodějnickém učni jí přinesl svobodu prozkoumat nová území . Pro spisovatele zavedeného jako autor pro děti může být přechod k literatuře pro dospělé obtížný. Například A. A. Milne býval úspěšným dramatikem, ale po úspěchu knížky Medvídek Pú se jednou přiznal, že musel dát psaní her sbohem. List The Los Angeles Times ovšem připomněl, že i když potterovky byly určeny dětem, četlo je i hodně jejich rodičů. Stejně tak mnoho dětských čtenářů, kteří vyrůstali s Harrym Potterem, je již nyní dospělých. Sedmá a poslední kniha z této série vyšla v roce 2007.

Strhující osobní zpověď o děsivém utrpení. Přežila jsem varšavské ghetto, plynové komory v Majdanku, hrůzu Osvětimi i totální beznaděj Bergen-Belsenu. Ztratila jsem rodiče, bratry, sestry, jejich životní partnery a děti… Ale pro mě, i když je to nenormální, to není výjimečné. To, že jsem mohla dál milovat, mluvit, psát, jíst toasty, pít čaj a žít svůj život, je výjimečné. Příběh Elly Blumenthalové je hluboce dojemným a inspirativním svědectvím o přežití holocaustu a následném nalezení radosti v životě. Jak sama říká, to, že dokázala dál milovat, mluvit, psát, jíst toasty, pít čaj a žít svůj život, je pro ni daleko výjimečnější než samotné utrpení, které prožila v varšavském ghettu, plynových komorách Majdanku, hrůze Osvětimi a beznaději Bergen-Belsenu, kde ztratila celou svou rodinu. Její cesta z plamenů nacistických táborů, přes Polsko, Paříž, Palestinu a nakonec do Kapského Města v Jižní Africe, je skutečně herkulovským výkonem. Ella se z uprchlice bez státní příslušnosti stala pilířem komunity. I přes stín hanby a traumatu, které po válce prožívalo tolik přeživších, si dokázala vytvořit šťastný domov, kde jen málokdo znal plný rozsah jejího utrpení. Po desetiletích ticha je Ella konečně připravena podělit se o svůj příběh. Autorka bestsellerů Joanne Jowellová mistrně uspořádala její vzpomínky do poutavé knihy. Díky pronikavým postřehům, hluboké reflexi a pečlivé pozornosti k historickým detailům získá čtenář pocit, jako by se s Ellou setkal osobně.

Beautifully written LITERARY REVIEWBorn into the English Wars of the Roses, educated in the European Renaissance, enthralled by the Age of Exploration and ultimately destroyed by Henry VIII, Thomas More is one of the most famous - or notorious - figures in English history.

Limburg describes movingly her own struggles as a new mother and the pressure of society s expectations...Through such delicately intertwined experiences, Limburg quietly shouts for change. Times Literary SupplementIt seemed to me that many of the moments when my autism had caused problems, or at least marked me out as different, were those moments when I had come up against some unspoken law about how a girl or a woman should be, and failed to meet it.An autism diagnosis in midlife enabled Joanne Limburg to finally make sense of why her emotional expression, social discomfort and presentation had always marked her as an outsider. Eager to discover other women who had been misunderstood in their time, she writes a series of wide-ranging letters to four weird sisters from history, addressing topics including autistic parenting, social isolation, feminism, the movement for disability rights and the appalling punishments that have been meted out over centuries to those deemed to fall short of the norm. This heartfelt, deeply compassionate and wholly original work humanises women who have so often been dismissed for their differences, and will be celebrated by weird sisters everywhere.

Dr. Cacciatore is featured in the 2021 documentary series The Me You Can’t See, from Oprah, Prince Harry, and Apple TV. Bearing the Unbearable is a Foreword INDIES Award-Winner — Gold Medal for Self-Help. __ When a loved one dies, the pain of loss can feel unbearable—especially in the case of a traumatizing death that leaves us shouting, “NO!” with every fiber of our body.

Organized into fifty-two short chapters, Bearing the Unbearable is a companion for life’s most difficult times, revealing how grief can open our hearts to connection, compassion, and the very essence of our shared humanity. Dr. Joanne Cacciatore—bereavement educator, researcher, Zen priest, and leading counselor in the field—accompanies us along the heartbreaking path of love, loss, and grief. Through moving stories of her encounters with grief over decades of supporting individuals, families, and communities—as well as her own experience with loss—Cacciatore opens a space to process, integrate, and deeply honor our grief. Not just for the bereaved, Bearing the Unbearable will be required reading for grief counselors, therapists and social workers, clergy of all varieties, educators, academics, and medical professionals. Organized into fifty-two accessible and stand-alone chapters, this book is also perfect for being read aloud in support groups.

It is everywhere—from another visitor’s elaborate tattoos to the way the sun makes patterns of light on the floor. While other visitors are busy trying to find their way through the museum’s galleries, or fighting for room to view a masterpiece, our hero examines the gallery upside down from a bench, plays with his shadow, and makes friends with the custodian. With a wink and a nod to serious museum-goers everywhere, Joanne Liu’s whimsical illustrations remind us that sometimes the best kind of art is the kind you make yourself.

‘ Vivid, personal, upbeat – makes you feel her happiness’ - Maggie GeeA lithic love letter Joanne Bourne has been in awe of flint as long as she can remember. It was all around her where she grew up in Kent: used for garden walls, to edge drives and weight dustbin lids, as well as to build pubs, churches, Roman villas and castles. For centuries it was the only building stone available. It is also magical. Made from the remains of plankton and sea sponges, it is second only in hardness to a diamond and can be used to make fire. Part of human development for three million years, it was used as a weapon to hunt and in war, and hung as protection against thunderbolts and fairies. In a deeply personal love letter to this extraordinary biogenic rock, Bourne traces its geological, architectural and social history and invites us to roam with her in search of it on her beloved North Downs. Fusing science, poetry, history and a profound love of landscape, this is her heartfelt, thoroughly persuasive tribute to the stone she calls an art project of the great divine .
