Quiet Genius - Brian Herbert
SHORTLISTED FOR THE FOOTBALL BOOK OF THE YEAR, SPORTS BOOK AWARDS 2018The full story of the man who brought unprecedented â “ and since unmatched â “ success to Liverpool FC.Bob Paisley was the quiet man in the flat cap who swept all domestic and European opposition aside and produced arguably the greatest club team that Britain has ever known. The man whose Liverpool team won trophies that dwarf Sir Alex Fergusonâ ™s achievements, and who remains the only Briton to lead a team to three European Cups. From Wembley to Rome, Manchester to Madrid, Paisleyâ ™s team was the one no one could touch. Working in a city which was on its knees, he delivered a golden era which made Liverpool synonymous with success and won them supporters internationally.Based on interviews with Paisleyâ ™s family and many of the players whom he led to an extraordinary haul of honours between 1974 and 1983, Quiet Genius is the first biography to examine the secrets of Paisleyâ ™s success. It inspects his man-management strategies, his extraordinary eye for a good player, his uncanny ability to diagnose injuries in his own players and the opposition, and the wicked sense of humour which endeared him to so many.Quiet Genius is the story of how one modest man from the North East accomplished more than any other football manager ever did. Even though his attributes were largely unrecorded and undervalued, he did not seem to mind, instead preferring to succeeded on his own terms. Now three decades on from his death, it is a football story that demands to be told.

Historie Duny – Služebnický džihád - Brian Herbert, Kevin J. Anderson - audiokniha
Audiokniha: V šerém dávnověku byli Atreidové a Harkonnenové spojenci. Tehdy se začala psát historie Duny… Zkostnatělé Staré impérium kdysi dokázala svrhnout pouhá dvacítka odhodlaných spiklenců jištěných robotickými pomocníky. Nadvláda Titánů, jak se vzbouřenci označovali, však netrvala dlouho. Přestože se zbavili smrtelných schránek a stali se kymeky – věčnými mozky ovládajícími mechanická těla –, nedokázali vzdorovat rostoucí moci myslících strojů. Počítačová všemysl, jež si začala říkat Omnius, si podmanila většinu známého vesmíru a učinila z kymeků své nejnebezpečnější bojovníky. Tak je tomu už po tisíc let, a přesto hrstka lidských planet – Liga vznešených – nadále vzdoruje drtivé přesile Synchronizovaných světů ovládaných roboty. Do nelítostné války významně zasáhnou i dva výjimeční mladíci: Xavier Harkonnen a Vorian Atreides, jejichž rozdílné osudy spojí láska k téže ženě. K ženě, jejíž odvaha rozpoutala povstání lidských otroků proti Omniovi, vzpoura nazvaná Služebnický džihád… Příběh pouštní planety Arrakis předčasnou smrtí autora neskončil. Neutuchající zájem čtenářů přiměl jeho syna Briana, aby se spojil s Kevinem J. Andersonem a otcův fascinující svět opět oživil. Trilogie Historie Duny, kterou zahajuje román Služebnický džihád, se odehrává zhruba 10 000 let před narozením Paula Atreida. „Na romány a poznámky zesnulého spisovatele autoři navázali ohromujícím dílem plným zajímavých odkazů a informací, z nichž mnohé se zde objevují vůbec poprvé.“– bookreporter.com „Nevědět, že Historii Duny nepsal sám Frank Herbert, tak to nepoznám.“ – databazeknih.cz

Druhý díl epické trilogie. Více než dvě desítky let zuří ve vesmíru svatá válka následovníků Sereny Služebnice proti Omniovi a jeho robotům. Při tomto křížovém tažení byly povražděny už miliardy lidí – nejen vojáků Ligy vznešených, ale i nevinných kolonistů a otroků ze Synchronizovaných světů. Zničené stroje se nikdo sčítat neobtěžuje. Ke konečnému vítězství však mají obě strany stále stejně daleko, a tak v nelítostné partii záleží na každém tahu. Toho si je vědom jak velezkušený generál Agamemnon, stojící v čele zbytku Titánů a zástupu neo-kymeků, tak jeho všemi mastmi mazaný syn Vorian Atreides, který se spolu s nesmlouvavým Xavierem Harkonnenem snaží dostat počítačové všemysli a jejím přisluhovačům na kobylku.

It wasn t me. I didn t do it. And I ll never do it again! says Brian Johnson of The Lives of Brian. That AC/DC s legendary front man got to do it all is one of the most cheering and entertaining stories in rock n roll history.The son of a British army sergeant-major and Italian mother, Brian grew up in Dunston, Tyne and Wear, as it emerged from the shadow of the Second World War. Then he saw Little Richard on the BBC and it changed the course of his life.The choirboy and cub scout was going to be singer.For over a decade he tried to make his mark with a succession of bands. He appeared on to Top of the Pops, toured Australia and yet the big time looked out of reach. Then he was invited to London for an audition for one of the world s biggest rock acts. AC/DC were a band in crisis following the tragic death of their lead singer, Bon Scott, but with Brian on board they would record their masterpiece: Back in Black. It became the biggest selling rock album of all time. The tour that followed played to packed out arenas. Quickly embraced by the band s fans, the new boy had earned his spurs. But there was to be a twist in the tale. In 2016, Brian was forced to quit the band after being diagnosed with hearing loss, only to make a triumphant return to the band he loved with the release of 2020 s smash hit album Power Up.It s been a rollercoaster of a life, throughout which Brian s kept his feet firmly on the ground, never losing touch with his roots.Warm, vivid, evocative, life-affirming and often laugh-out-loud funny, The Lives of Brian tells the story of one of our most well-loved performers in his own inimitable voice

Selected Poems - Zbigniew Herbert
Published for the centenary of his birth, a gathering of lucid, intensely lyrical poetry from one of the twentieth century’s pre-eminent literary voicesbe courageous when reason fails you be courageousin the final reckoning it is the only thing that countsZbigniew Herbert was one of the best-known and most-translated poets of post-war Poland, opposed alike to Communism, Fascism, nationalism and the Church, yet moved, throughout his work, by ‘a powerful sense of right and wrong without a corresponding belief in a system’ (New York Times).His is a poetry of compression, lucidity and profound humanity. The universe he conjures is deeply informed not only by his own time, but by history – by that of the Medieval Mediterranean and Central Europe, as much as of the Classical world – and by a taste for historical and philosophical paradox. In the early and middle works, the figure of the trickster never seems far from view. Throughout, Herbert asks questions about the nature and needs of sentient beings. His desire, always, is to ‘touch the essence’: to get to the heart of life.Selected with an introduction and afterword by J. M. Coetzee and Alissa Valles, this outstanding gathering from the full range of Herbert’s poetic output invites readers to experience the beauty and profundity of a remarkable body of work.

Shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Award 2019, Diary of a Somebody is a unique mix of poetry and diary by the unofficial Poet Laureate of Twitter, the enigmatic Brian Bilston. #39;If you like a) laughing or b) words which rhyme with each other, you will love Brian Bilston #39; - Richard Osman, author of The Thursday Murder Club‘Nobody must find out about this unique gem, because I’m giving it to EVERYONE, and I want to appear clever and discerning.’ – Dawn FrenchIt’s January 1st and Brian Bilston’s life needs to change. His ex-wife has taken up with a new man, a motivational speaker and marketing guru to boot; he seems to constantly disappoint his long-suffering son; and at work he is drowning in a sea of spreadsheets and management jargon.Brian #39;s resolution is to write a poem every day; poetry will be his salvation. But there is an obstacle to his happiness in the form of Toby Salt, his arch nemesis in the Poetry Group and rival suitor to Liz, Brian’s new poetic inspiration. When Toby goes missing, Brian is the number one suspect.Part tender love story, part suburban murder mystery, part scathing description of a wasted life, and interspersed with some of the funniest poems about the mundane and the profound, Diary of a Somebody is a unique, original and hilarious novel.‘Glorious. I will be astonished if I read a more original, more inventive or funnier novel this year.’ – Adam Kay, author of This is Going to Hurt.

Brian - Jeremy Cooper
Perennially on the outside, Brian has led a solitary life; he works at Camden Council, lunches every day at Il Castelletto café and then returns to his small flat on Kentish Town Road. It is an existence carefully crafted to avoid disturbance and yet Brian yearns for more. A visit one day to the BFI brings film into his life, and Brian introduces a new element to his routine: nightly visits to the cinema on London⠙s South Bank. Through the works of YasujirŠOzu, Federico Fellini, Agnes Varda, Yilmaz Güney and others, Brian gains access to a rich cultural landscape outside his own experience, but also achieves his first real moments of belonging, accepted by a curious bunch of amateur film buffs, the small informal group of BFI regulars. A tender meditation on friendship and the importance of community, Brian is also a tangential work of film criticism, one that is not removed from its subject matter, but rather explores with great feeling how art gives meaning to and enriches our lives.

Mám klepátko od nehlídaných zahrad - Zbigniew Herbert
Rozsáhlý výbor z poezie jednoho ze zásadních polských básníků Zbigniewa Herberta připravil a přeložil Josef Mlejnek. Herbertova nezaměnitelná poetika, opřená o klasické vzdělání i výtvarnou citlivost, je dnes už dědictvím 20. století, stále však inspiruje svým nesmlouvavým postojem, nedůvěrou k myriádám obrazů nebo zacházením s emblematickou maskou-postavou pana Cogito.V českých překladech se básnické dílo Zbigniewa Herberta objevilo poprvé už na konci padesátých let především díky Vlastě Dvořáčkové, básníku Miroslavu Holubovi, který se s Herbertem osobně znal, nebo Miroslavu Červenkovi. Naopak eseje se dočkaly vydání až mnohem později. Nový výbor je také osobním pohledem Josefa Mlejnka na Herbertovo dílo - některé básně již česky vyšly a nyní jsou publikovány v novém překladu. Zbigniew Herbert (1924-1998) byl významný polský básník a esejista, stal se symbolem protikomunistického odporu v Polsku a byl několikrát nominovaný na Nobelovu cenu. Svou první básnickou knihu Struna světla vydal v roce 1956, v roce 1974 vychází jeho kniha Pan Cogito, jejíž hlavní stejnojmenná postava se pak objevuje i v následujících Herbertových knihách. Poslední sbírka Epilog bouře byla vydána v roce jeho úmrtí. Je také autorem knižních reportážních esejů Barbar v zahradě (1962), na které navázaly soubory Zátiší s udidlem (1993) a Labyrint u moře (2000), v nichž reflektuje své časté cesty do zahraničí, kde pobýval řadu měsíců, někdy i let. Ačkoli v exilu nikdy natrvalo nezůstal, pobyt mimo Polsko pomáhal Herbertovi vyrovnat se s komunistickou totalitou, a zároveň promýšlet vztah k evropskému kulturnímu dědictví a tradici.

Vyšší bdělost / Malá učebnice bílé magie - Herbert Fritsche
Dvě zásadní práce jednoho z předních okultních spisovatelů první poloviny 20. století. Herbert Friteche, významný homeopat a žák Gustava Meyrinka, s odkazem na staré a osvědčené autority v oblasti mystiky a esoterního bádání vede své čtenáře k vnitřnímu probuzení a poznání vnitřní pravdy,. V pojednání Vyšší bdělost si dává Herbert Fritsche za cíl vytvořit jakousi základnu pro další studium Královského umění, vytknout cestu, jež začíná právě tam, kde zrovna stojíme . Jde mu především o vnitřní vedení, aby již nebylo třeba jiného poučení než toho, jehož se nám dostane od probuzeného vlastního já . V Malé učebnici bílé magie hovoří Fritsche o příslibu této cesty k Bohu a upozorňuje na svody černé magie. Fritsche se opírá zejména o texty a dílo Paracelsa, Swedenborga a Gustava Meyrinka.

The Great Dune Trilogy - Frank Herbert
Three of the greatest SF novels in the world in one bumper omnibus, and the inspiration for the spectacular cinematic events Dune: Part One and Dune: Part Two. An astonishing science fiction phenomenon WASHINGTON POST I know nothing comparable to it except The Lord of the Rings Arthur C ClarkeHerbert s evocative, epic tales are set on the desert planet Arrakis, the focus for a complex political and military struggle with galaxy-wide repercussions.Arrakis is the source of spice, a mind-enhancing drug which makes interstellar travel possible; it is the most valuable substance in the galaxy. When Duke Atreides and his family take up court there, they fall into a trap set by the Duke s bitter rival, Baron Harkonnen. The Duke is poisoned, but his wife and her son Paul escape to the vast and arid deserts of Arrakis, which have given the planet its nickname of Dune.Paul and his mother join the Fremen, the Arrakis natives, who have learnt to live in this harsh and complex ecosystem. But learning to survive is not enough - Paul s destiny was mapped out long ago and his mother is committed to seeing it fulfilled.Read the books which inspired the Academy Award-winning and jaw-dropping cinematic events Dune: Part One (2021) and Dune: Part Two (2024), starring Timothee Chalomet, Florence Pugh, Jessica Ferguson and Austin Butler. A science fiction spectacular like no other, this is a deeply climate conscious novel, and a compelling family saga for the ages.* * * * * * * * * * * * * This is - quite simply - the most magnificent Sci-Fi epic ever written . . . The scope of Asimov s Foundation, the attention to detail and context of Tolkien s LotR, coupled with an unmatched visionary socio-ecological messianic narrative that is scarily relevant today Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Frank Herbert s immortal space opera that created many of the tropes we take for granted inside them is a book that doesn t need my endorsement . . . the nobility is some of the most decadent and depraved in fiction . . . It s a fantastic book, amazing story Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ The blend of science-aversion, exploitation of the naive by systematic manipulation of religion and witchcraft, and the harsh realities of life in a barren and mineral depleted desert is astounding. I love these books! Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Herbert succeeds at juxtaposing so many different elements: ecology, religion, consciousness, feudalism, space travel... gawsh, I could go on! . . . It is a mainly character-driven plot, with the three books in this trilogy focusing on the Atreides family on Dune . . . I think everyone should delve into this world, let themselves be absorbed by it. It makes you question your reality, your choices, your relationships and the impact you have on the world, or the impact the world has on you Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Dune perhaps epitomises science-fiction. The willingness to embrace big ideas and show them playing out on a broad canvas . . . You have to read it to believe it Goodreads reviewer

Unselected Poems - Herbert W. N.
For many poets there comes a point in their careers when a Selected Poems seems a logical step. Their style is now established, their subject-matter is their own, and their greatest hits lend themselves to a succinct introduction to their career. But for WN Herbert, that was never what it was all about. The idea that he has had a career, let alone that it was â ˜aboutâ ™ anything, strikes him as extremely unlikely. Instead, he has always enjoyed the opportunity to head off in as many directions as possible. Usually at the same time. In addition to his main collections, WN Herbert has been involved in many collaborative side projects, arising from travel, dialogue, translation and the challenge of a new sequence or form. This book contains the best of his â ˜unselectedâ ™ poems, including On Your Nerve: A Wake for Frank Oâ ™Hara, Don Juanâ ™s Pilgrimage and his award-winning pamphlet, Murder Bear. Unselected Poems is an invitation to consider the less-travelled tracks we might have taken and could yet follow, whether as writers or readers. Set off, if you would â “ follow that bear!

Tell Them I Said No - Herbert Martin
Essays on artists who have withdrawn from the art world or have adopted an openly antagonistic position against it.This collection of essays by Martin Herbert considers various artists who have withdrawn from the art world or adopted an antagonistic position toward its mechanisms. A large part of the artist s role in today s professionalized art system is being present. Providing a counterargument to this concept of self-marketing, Herbert examines the nature of retreat, whether in protest, as a deliberate conceptual act, or out of necessity. By illuminating these motives, Tell Them I Said No offers a unique perspective on where and how the needs of the artist and the needs of the art world diverge. Essays on Lutz Bacher, Stanley Brouwn, Christopher D Arcangelo, Trisha Donnelly, David Hammons, Agnes Martin, Cady Noland, Laurie Parsons, Charlotte Posenenske, and Albert York.

Helikonie 1: Jaro - Brian Wilson Aldiss - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Na Helikonii, planetě obíhající kolem binárních sluncí, trvá Velký rok dva tisíce šest set let pozemského času: lidská civilizace se vzmáhá zjara, vzkvétá během období léta a téměř zaniká s nástupem zimy, jež přetrvává po mnoho lidských generací. Právě přichází jaro a Helikonie se pomalu probouzí z předlouhého sevření mrazu. Kmeny rovníkového kontinentu vycházejí z úkrytů, v nichž zdecimovány na minimum přečkaly nepříznivé klima a opětovně začínají soupeřit o nadvládu nad planetou s divokými tvory chladu – fagory. A v jedné z vesnic, Oldorandu, znovu objevují řemesla, obchod, zemědělství, mince i nové rozměry mezilidských vztahů… Román Helikonie – Jaro je úvodním svazkem skvělé Helikonské trilogie, monumentální ságy, která svým měřítkem přesahuje všechno, co jeden z největších mistrů imaginace a žánru science fiction kdy napsal. ŽIVOTNÍ DÍLO VELMISTRA SCIENCE FICTION! Strhující epos o planetě trpící střídáním smrtelně nebezpečných extrémů. Staletí trvající zima odsoudí celé civilizace k záhubě. Do jara se probouzí svět nezatížený minulostí, a přesto jej čeká stejný osud… Vhání čtenáře střemhlav k úžasu. Trilogie, která disponuje monumentální noblesou. — THE TIMES Fantazie Briana Aldisse nezná hranic a staví jeho trilogii o planetě Helikonii vysoko nad běžnou sci-fi. Ba daleko za hranice žánru! — DAILY MAIL Brian Wilson Aldiss se narodil v roce 1925 v anglickém Norfolku. Během své dlouhé a úspěšné spisovatelské kariéry publikoval oceňované science fiction (dvě ceny Hugo, cena Nebula a John W. Campbell Memorial Award); bestsellery populární literatury, experimentální literaturu a mnoho dalších kultovních a průkopnických děl, včetně toho nejznámějšího – trilogie Helikonie. Vždy vyzýval mysl čtenářů k zamyšlení, a tak nikoho nemůže překvapit ekologický přesah jeho děl a zamyšlení nad důsledky klimatické změny dlouho před tím, než se staly tyto úvahy součástí mainstreamu. Připravil mnoho úspěšných antologií a je i autorem velkolepých dějin science fiction Billion Year Spree, později přepracovaných jako Trillion Year Spree. Českým čtenářům je znám z románů Skleník, Nonstop, Pokolení starců či Temné světelné roky. Z mnoha jeho povídek je zřejmě nejznámější Superhračky vydrží celé léto, kterou pro film adaptoval Stanley Kubrick a po Kubrickově smrti ji produkoval a režíroval Steven Spielberg pod názvem A.I. – Umělá inteligence. Brian Wilson Aldiss zemřel v roce 2017 ve věku 92 let. Filip Jančík (* 1974) je český herec, dabér i dabingový režisér. V 18 letech hrál ve filmu Záhada hlavolamu a o rok později ve filmu Vekslák aneb staré zlaté časy. Pracuje pro dabingové studio S-Pro Alfa. Daboval například postavu Codyho v seriálu Krok za krokem, Randyho Dishera v seriálu Můj přítel Monk nebo hlas psa Ftefana v reklamě na limonádu Kofola. V posledních letech se také věnuje načítání audioknih.
