BookPageWINNER OF THE THURBER PRIZE FOR AMERICAN HUMOURThe childhood of Patricia Lockwood, the poet dubbed ''The Smutty-Metaphor Queen of Lawrence, Kansas'' by The New York Times, was unusual in many respects. There was the location: an impoverished, nuclear waste-riddled area of the American Midwest. There was her mother, a woman who speaks almost entirely in strange riddles and arnings of impending danger. Above all, there was her gun-toting, guitar-riffing, frequently semi-naked father, who underwent a religious conversion on a submarine and found a loophole which saw him approved for the Catholic priesthood by the future Pope Benedict XVI, despite already having a wife and children.When an unexpected crisis forces Lockwood and her husband to move back into her parents'' rectory, she must learn to live again with the family''s simmering madness, and to reckon with the dark side of her religious upbringing. Pivoting from the raunchy to the sublime, from the comic to the serious, Priestdaddy is an unforgettable story of how we balance tradition against hard-won identity ...

For the past forty years, Richard Koch has worked to uncover simple and elegant principles which govern business success. To qualify, a principle must be so overwhelmingly powerful that anyone can reliably apply it to generate extraordinary results. Working with venture capitalist Greg Lockwood and supported by specially commissioned research from OC&C Strategy Consultants, Koch has now found one elemental principle that unites extraordinarily valuable companies: simplifying. Some firms simplify on price - consider budget flights stripped of all extras that still take you from A to B - creating new, huge mass markets for their wares. Others, such as Apple, simplify their proposition, bringing a beautifully easy-to-use product or service to a large premium market. How can your business become a simplifier? With case studies of some of the most famous firms of the last hundred years, from finance to fast food, this enlightening book shows how to analyse any company's potential to simplify, and enrich the world.

Patricia Highsmithová - 5x Tom Ripley. Nenávidí zločin, pokud ho k němu jeho ctižádost nedonutí. Audioverze úspěšných detektivních románů Patricie Highsmithové. První román s postavou Toma Ripleyho vydala Patricia Highsmithová v roce 1955 a dala mu název, pod nímž by si čtenář mohl spíše představit životopisnou knihu o nějakém neznámém umělci než detektivku. Talentovaný pan Ripley. Už ten název byl ironickou provokací autorky, která svým životem, názory a skutky provokovala, ba někdy šokovala své okolí. Ty talenty, kterými oplýval malý podvodníček Tom táhnoucí svou bezvýznamnou existenci ze dne na den v ušmudlaném newyorském podnájmu, nebyly totiž žádné povznášející a ušlechtilé schopnosti. Naopak, jestli Tom v něčem skutečně vynikne, pak je to lež, přetvářka, cynismus a zločin. Highsmithová svého antihrdinu provede postupnou proměnou: ze zamindrákovaného mladíčka se vyklube prohnaný parazit šikovně využívající svou známost s mladíkem z milionářských kruhů, posléze nelítostný zločinec vraždící s rozmyslem a z prospěchu a nakonec hotový mistr převleku, který bez sebemenších potíží falšuje svoji identitu. Kdysi toužil po kariéře herce a nyní může konečně svou touhu uskutečnit, s tím rozdílem, že jevištěm je mu sám život. Romány s Tomem Ripleym nejsou detektivky v pravém slova smyslu, ale spíše příběhy o zločinu. Highsmithová nadaná uměním psychologizace, jímž ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Audiokniha: „Bylo mi třináct a prvně v životě jsem měl pouta a ruce za zády.“ Předsudky, rasismus, šikana a divoká devadesátá léta. Novinář Patrik Banga vyrůstal v romské komunitě na pražském Žižkově, kde lidé se stejnými kořeny sdíleli dlouho do noci radost ze skvělé hudby, ale také neutěšené existenční podmínky a násilí, které člověka provázelo, i když se mu vyhýbal. Žít na takovém místě znamenalo dostat nálepku nepřizpůsobivého a cesta ven se zvlášť v dobách společenské transformace, kdy empatie k Romům chyběla v médiích i mezi lidmi, hledala těžko. Někdy však mohla vést i dost nečekanými směry – přes práci v organizaci Sananim až k humanitární misi na území bývalé Jugoslávie. Autorovo osobní vyprávění provázejí písně kapely Trio Romano, kde si vedle Petra Horváta zahráli i bratři Patrik a Gyulla Bangovi. „Skutečná cesta ven si nehraje na neutralitu a vyváženost; Banga v ní oprávněně ventiluje svůj vztek na ty, kteří mu způsobili bezpráví, aniž by existovala nějaká reálná možnost, jak jej odčinit. Text tak dobře slouží jako určité zrcadlo, černé svědomí polistopadové společnosti. Rasistické vraždy, od nichž česká společnost odvracela zrak, davy nazi skinheadů, kteří zabíjeli Romy a cizince a právní řád to vnímal jako výtržnictví. Síla knihy je tedy ...
