Audiokniha: Čím dříve se dostanou do hlavy vraždícímu monstru, tím více zachrání životů… Ve vzpomínkách novináře Johna Moora ožívá děsivý kriminální případ, jehož dramatického vyšetřování se zúčastnil roku 1896 v New Yorku. Hrstka odvážných duší – mezi nimi i šéf newyorské policie Theodore Roosevelt, pozdější prezident Spojených států, či jeden z prvních amerických psychiatrů moderního ražení dr. Laszlo Kreizler – se pouští po stopách sériového vraha, který si své oběti vybírá mezi nezletilými prostituty a zanechává za sebou jejich brutálně zmrzačená těla. A jakoby nestačilo, že své neoficiální pátrání musí vést potají, stranou pozornosti policie i médií, kromě samotného vraha proti nim stojí také část newyorské honorace a místního podsvětí. Na své straně ovšem mají nejnovější technické vynálezy a pokrokové psychologické i vyšetřovací metody, jako jsou daktyloskopie či grafologie. Podaří se jim zastavit řádění nelítostného zabijáka, nebo dopadnou stejně jako o několik let dříve jejich londýnští kolegové s Jackem Rozparovačem? Carrův napínavý detektivní thriller, který se stal předlohou stejnojmenného seriálu, vás přenese do New Yorku na sklonku 19. století. „Carr úžasným způsobem využívá newyorské ulice jako jeviště, na kterém rozehrává svůj příběh o zločinu a trestu.“ – Jonathan Kirsch, Los Angeles Times „Carr citlivě oživil nejen prostředí starého New Yorku, ...

THE TIMES''Full of wit and style.'' OBSERVER''A terrific cast of characters, and secrets and chaos aplenty.'' iNEWS''A geriatric Lord of the Flies.'' SPECTATORWe have a choir and on special occasions a glass of dry sherry. It’s less of a home and more of a club and very much a community.Presided over by the lofty Mrs McBryde, Hill Topp House is a superior council home for the elderly.

After the robbery, after a few dead guards, with all of Gotham including Batman searching for them, they meet with their backer, Penguin, the man who will wash their money, take his cut, and secure their escape. And Riddler shoots Penguin in the gut, grabs the loot, and turns to Catwoman. “It’s ours, all of it. All we got to do is escape this city.” Riddler and Catwoman take to the road, both weighing how long they can go before they need to take the other out.

Secrecy came naturally to John le Carré, and there were some secrets that he fought fiercely to keep. Nowhere was this more so than in his private life. Apparently content in his marriage, the novelist conducted a string of love affairs over four decades.To keep these relationships secret, he made use of tradecraft that he had learned as a spy: code names and cover stories, cut outs, safe houses and dead letter boxes. Such affairs introduced both jeopardy and excitement into what was otherwise a quiet, ordered life. Le Carré seemed to require the stimulus they provided in order to write, though this meant deceiving those closest to him.It is no coincidence that betrayal became a recurrent theme in his work. Adam Sisman's definitive biography, published in 2015, revealed much about the elusive spy-turned-novelist; yet le Carré was adamant that some subjects should remain hidden, at least during his lifetime. The Secret Life of John le Carré is the story of what was left out, and offers reflections on the difficult relationship between biographer and subject.More than that, it adds a necessary coda to the life and work of this complex, driven, restless man.

Kniha Skleněná klec je oslavou technologie a současně varováním před jejím nesprávným používáním. Její autor, Nicholas Carr, popisuje osobní, společenské a ekonomické důsledky automatizace; jak změnilo používání počítačů a softwaru k vykonávání činností, které jsme dříve dělávali sami, náš život. Výhody počítačového zpracování dat, robotizované výroby, digitalizovaného lékařství nebo samořídicích automobilů jsou zjevné: automatizace nám výrazně usnadňuje život, šetří náš čas a umožňuje nám činit věci dříve nemožné. Automatizace však má i hlubší a skrytější účinky. A ne všechny z nich jsou prospěšné. Vybírá si svou daň - na naší práci, talentu, životě. Automatizace může zúžit naši perspektivu a omezit možnost volby. Může nás vystavit dohledu a manipulaci. Je načase uvědomit si, že rozhodnutí týkající se používání moderních technologií jsou rovněž rozhodnutími o tom, jak budeme pracovat a jak budeme žít. Je načase položit si otázku, co znamená být člověkem. Nemusíme o nás nechat rozhodovat jiné, můžeme poodstoupit a přemýšlet o technologii kriticky, nemusíme se nechat strhnout vlnou pokroku. A můžeme se bránit. Bránit se invenci neznamená ji odmítat. Znamená to ji pokořit, vrátit pokrok nohama na zem.

But when a single attempt to pass on information to the British authorities - about an international businessman at the hotel with suspicious dealings - backfires terribly, and people close to Pine begin to die, he commits himself to a battle against powerful forces he cannot begin to imagine. In a chilling tale of corrupt intelligence agencies, billion-dollar price tags and the truth of the brutal arms trade, John le Carre creates a claustrophobic world in which no one can be trusted.
