FROM THE BOOKER PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF GIRL, WOMAN, OTHER LONGLISTED FOR THE ORANGE PRIZE FOR FICTION 2009 WINNER OF THE ORANGE YOUTH PANEL AWARD 2009 FINALIST FOR THE HURSTON WRIGHT LEGACY AWARD 2010 ''A phenomenal book. It is so ingenious and so novel. Think The Handmaid''s Tale meets Noughts and Crosses with a bit of Jonathan Swift and Lewis Carroll thrown in. This should be thought of as a feminist classic.'' Women''s Prize for Fiction Podcast Welcome to a world turned upside down. One minute, Doris, from England, is playing hide-and-seek with her sisters in the fields behind their cottage. The next, someone puts a bag over her head and she ends up in the hold of a slave-ship sailing to the New World . . . In this fantastically imaginative inversion of the transatlantic slave trade - in which ''whytes'' are enslaved by black people - Bernardine Evaristo has created a thought-provoking satire that is as accessible and readable as it is intelligent and insightful. Blonde Roots brings the shackles and cries of long-ago barbarity uncomfortably close and raises timely questions about the society of today.''A bold and brilliant game of counterfactual history. Evaristo keep[s] her wit and anger at a spicy simmer throughout'' Daily Telegraph ''So human and real. Re-imagines past and present with refreshing humour and intelligence'' Guardian ''A brilliant satire whose flashes of comedy make the underlying tragedy all the more poignant'' Scotland on Sunday

A journey of self-discovery.For fans of dark fantasy like Cemetery Boys, Noughts and Crosses and Threads that Bind from major new YA talent Jamaican British author Nevin HolnessThe first time Eli had tried taking magic that wasn’t his, it had wrapped around his palms like razor wire, tight enough that he’d needed stitches. Since then, Eli had bled magic from a soul enough times that he knew the rhythm of it. He knew what kinds of magic to stay away from and which he could upsell, which would get stuck beneath his fingernails and which would crumble and turn to ash if he held on too tightly.Eli doesn't know who he is or where he came from. What he does know is that he can pluck the magic from a soul like a petal from a flower. And he knows there is nothing he wouldn't borrow, steal or destroy in order to discover his past.Malcolm knows he can raise the dead with a wave of his hand but all he really wants is to be able to save his mother. When Eli is sent to track down the legendary fang of the leopard god Osebo, he finds himself entangled with an old and ancient power. Forced to team up, Malcolm and Eli must weave through the cracks of London, unearthing magic that should have stayed buried.Until finally, they face a power greater than either of them could have imagined: the daughter of Death herself . . .Raising the dead is easy, living is harder.

And how will this journey – and the sisters’ story – end? With the start of a new life?

Clare Furniss is one of the very best writers for young people and this new novel is her finest yet.

Enemies and Neighbours : Arabs and Jews in Palestine and Israel, 1917-2017 - Ian Black

A century after Britain's Balfour Declaration promised a Jewish 'national home' in Palestine, veteran Guardian journalist Ian Black has produced a major new history of one of the most polarising conflicts of the modern age. Drawing on a wide range of sources - from declassified documents to oral testimonies and his own decades of reporting - Enemies and Neighbours brings much-needed perspective and balance to the long and unresolved struggle between Arabs and Jews in the Holy Land. Beginning in the final years of Ottoman ruleand the British Mandate period, when Zionist immigration transformed Palestine in the face of mounting Arab opposition, the book re-examines the origins of what was a doomed relationship from the start. It sheds fresh light on critical events such as the Arab rebellion of the 1930s; Israel's independence and the Palestinian catastrophe (Nakba in Arabic) of 1948; the watershed of the 1967 war; two Intifadas; the Oslo Accords and Israel's shift to the right. It traces how - after five decades of occupation, ever-expanding Jewish settlements and the construction of the West Bank 'separation wall' - hopes for a two-state solution have all but disappeared, and explores what the future might hold. Yet Black also goes beyond the most newsworthy events - wars, violence and peace initiatives - to capture thereality of everyday life on the ground in Jerusalem and Hebron, Tel Aviv,Ramallah, Haifa and Gaza, for both sides of an unequal struggle. Lucid, timelyand gripping, Enemies and Neighbours illuminates a bitter conflict that shows no sign of ending - which is why it is so essential that we understand it.

FiHa: You and Me and Victoria (CD)

Deset let od úspěšného debutu, který vznikl ve věhlasném studiu SONO a pět let po desce “Baby, Baby”, která vznikla pod dozorem věhlasného producenta Borise Carloffa, přichází FIHA s novinkou “You and Me and Victoria”. V lednu roku 2019 se kapela přesunula do studia na Edinburg College ve Skotsku, kde měla v plánu natočit EP obsahující 4 nové písně. Kapela se nakonec po příjezdu zpět do Česka rozhodla natočit plnohodnotnout desku a pro potřeby nahrávání se rozhodla postavit si vlastní studio. V tom vzniklo celé album "You and Me and Victoria", které bylo vydáno 13. listopadu 2020 kompletně v produkci kapely. Podobně jako u skladeb se kapela rozhodla ve vlastní produkci točit i videoklipy. Prvním z řady videí k novým písním byl klip k písní "Victoria". Kvůli pandemii Covid 19 byla deska pokřtěna předtočeným digitálním křtem. Kmotrou "Victorie" se stala Zlata Holušová, ředitelka festivalu Colours of Ostrava. Deska je klasickou “FIHA směsicí”, která obsahuje jak tanečnější a energické songy(Beauty, Old Tricks), krásné balady (Come Home, Let The Love), ale i pořádný kytarový nářez (Clue, Victoria). Koncertní složení kapely je poslední roky rozšířeno i o perkusionistu, dvě sboristky a i Ti se spolup-odíleli na novém materiálu a zařadili se tak pevně do sestavy kapely.

The Gods and Goddesses of Greece and Rome

The essential illustrated guide to the gods and goddesses of ancient Greece and Rome, vividly retelling their stories and exploring their origins. Who were the gods and goddesses of ancient Greece and Rome? What did they mean to the people who worshipped them? Although their time of widespread worship has long passed, the Greek and Roman gods have fascinated and inspired writers and artists for millennia. From Aphrodite to Apollo, Poseidon to Zeus, these are some of the most recognizable characters in Western culture, yet there is a much richer past behind famous paintings of the birth of Aphrodite or the bold iconography of Zeus and his thunderbolts.The Greek and Roman gods are enthralling characters in the enduringly powerful Iliad, Odyssey and Metamorphoses. They are immortal and powerful yet also vain, vindictive and vulnerable. Moreover, as manifestations of death, fertility, love and war, the gods are also our key to understanding how the Greeks and Romans saw their world.Philip Matyszak presents this pantheon in all their complexity, guiding us from Mount Olympus to the depths of Hades. Each chapter focuses on an individual god or goddess, beginning with their 'biography' as understood by the Greeks and Romans and exploring the origins of the legends. Matyszak mixes history with vivid retellings of the myths in which the gods have a starring role, from stories of cosmic creation and universal war to disastrous weddings and freak discus accidents.This sumptuously illustrated guide to the gods of Greece and Rome is a must-have for anyone interested in mythology and classical civilization.

1Q84: Books 1 and 2 and 3 (0099578077)

Kniha - autor Haruki Murakami, 1318 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná The year is 1Q84. This is the real world, there is no doubt about that. But in this world, there are two moons in the sky. In this world, the fates of two people, Tengo and Aomame, are closely intertwined. They are each, in their own way, doing something very dangerous. And in this world, it seems there is no way to save them both. This is a magnificent and fully-imagined work of fiction - a thriller, a love-story and a mind-bending ode to George Orwell's NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR.

Legal English and Its Lexical and Grammatical Structure

„Do rukou českých čtenářů se právě dostává nová, anglicky psaná publikace od dvojice slovenských autorů Miroslava Bázlika a Ady Böhmerové s názvem ´Právní angličtina a její lexikální a gramatická struktura pro české právníky a překladatele´. Tato kniha je vítaným přírůstkem na poli učebnic a manuálů zabývajících se moderním jazykem práva, které jsou určeny pro české publikum. Autory jsou zkušení jazykovědci působící na katedře anglistiky a amerikanistiky Univerzity Komenského v Bratislavě, jimž se v předkládané publikaci podařilo zúročit několik desetiletí zkušeností výzkumu a výuky jak v oblasti právního překladu a gramatiky (v případě docenta Bázlika) tak i lexikální roviny anglického jazyka (v případě docentky Böhmerové). Díky jejich spolupráci tak čtenář dostává do rukou komplexní přehled o právní angličtině.“ Doc. PhDr. Jan Chovanec, PhD. „The book is designed to assist in making users – and in particular the Czech users – familiar with some specific features that are encountered in English legal texts [...] in order to unveil their meaning and find a proper translation, taking advantage of every opportunity to show how linguistic science helps us to understand and deal with language [...]. Our motivation for writing this book mainly comes from our translation practice as officially certified translators [...]. This publication provides general reference material for those who compose English legal texts, as well as for translators from and into English.“ authors

Heroes : Mortals and Monsters, Quests and Adventures - Stephen Fry

There are Heroes - and then there are Greek Heroes. Few mere mortals have ever embarked on such bold and heart-stirring adventures, overcome myriad monstrous perils, or outwitted scheming vengeful gods, quite as stylishly and triumphantly as Greek heroes. In this companion to his bestselling Mythos, Stephen Fry brilliantly retells these dramatic, funny, tragic and timeless tales. Join Jason aboard the Argo as he quests for the Golden Fleece. See Atalanta - who was raised by bears - outrun any man before being tricked with golden apples. Witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx and discover how Bellerophon captures the winged horse Pegasus to help him slay the monster Chimera. Filled with white-knuckle chases and battles, impossible puzzles and riddles, acts of base cowardice and real bravery, not to mention murders and selfless sacrifices, Heroes is the story of what we mortals are truly capable of - at our worst and our very best.

Down and Out in Paris and London - George Orwell

In late 1927, at the age of twenty-four, George Orwell relocated to a tiny flat on London’s Portobello Road, and from there embarked on a series of exploratory “tramping” expeditions to the city’s East End, then a place of great squalor and deprivation. Later he moved to Paris’s bohemian Latin Quarter, where, in early 1929, during a bout of serious illness, he was the victim of a robbery that left him in a state of near destitution, forcing him to work punishing hours in a series of menial jobs, including as a restaurant dishwasher. These real-life experiences laid the foundations for what would be the young writer’s first full-length work.Populated by a troupe of colourful characters, replete with penetrating observations and cast in the limpid prose that would become Orwell’s hallmark, Down and Out in Paris and London – published by Victor Gollancz in 1933 – provides both an invaluable historical snapshot and an insight into the perennial social evils of inequality, poverty and alienation.
