Audiokniha: Čtyři nedospělí sourozenci se po smrti rodičů rozhodnou žít sami a po svém v rodinném domě uprostřed takřka opuštěné příměstské zástavby. Čas peskování a výchovných opatření vystřídala volnost, místo svazujících povinností je teď důležitější hra – hra na dospělé. Proslulý román Iana McEwana byl sice poprvé uveřejněn již roku 1978, od té doby však neztratil nic ze své zvláštní, „nemorální“ naléhavosti.

Audiokniha: Je to jen svědomí, co nutí člověka stále znovu a znovu zpytovat duši, anebo existuje cosi mnohem hlubšího, kam obyčejný smrtelník nedosáhne, ale o čem jen tuší, že číhá vyrazit každým okamžikem do útoku? Ve svém doposud posledním románu Pokání dovedl Ian McEwan tuto myšlenku k dokonalosti. Třináctiletá Briony odvíjí svůj život v jistých představách, které ji mají neomylně dovést ke konkrétnímu, jasně vytyčenému cíli. Těmto snům přizpůsobuje vše, co přizpůsobit lze. Co nelze, tomu je třeba dopomoci. S fanatickou úporností pubescenta a fantazií, rozvinutou až do krajnosti, dohání protagonisty své soukromé hry na život k tragédii, za kterou by měla činit po zbytek života pokání. McEwan spřádá jednotlivé nitky osudů, jež v závěru splynou v jediný, silný a hluboce pravdivý obraz uplynulého století. Autor nabízí možnosti a klade otázky, na něž je těžké jednoznačně odpovědět. Ale ani on neposkytuje jednoznačné odpovědi, a tak je na čtenáři, aby se rozhodl, po které cestě se vydá - společně s Briony, s jejími spolupachateli, anebo s obětí? Jednoznačný není ani katarzní závěr, stejně jako není černý anebo bílý život kohokoliv z nás. Příběh pokání, jenž se na první pohled vztahuje k Briony, se náhle dotýká každého, i když se současně každý v tom kterém smyslu může ztotožnit s obětí. Nenápadně, avšak s rafinovaností mistra svého oboru, jako zdánlivé vedlejší téma se knihou prolíná - zřetelněji než v kterémkoli McEwanově díle předchozím - motiv psaní, chcete-li spisovatelství a jeho smyslu, jako by autor cítil stále naléhavější nutkání popsat a zdůvodnit především sám sebe a svoji touhu propojit život skutečný se životem svých literárních postav. Autor v tomto díle jednoznačně dosáhl svého vrcholu, alespoň co se týče asociačního spektra možných osudů člověka, jež nám nabízí s elegantní noblesou a odzbrojující bravurou.

Kafka meets The Thick Of It in a bitingly funny new political satire from Ian McEwanThat morning, Jim Sams, clever but by no means profound, woke from uneasy dreams to find himself transformed into a gigantic creature.Jim Sams has undergone a metamorphosis. In his previous life he was ignored or loathed, but in his new incarnation he is the most powerful man in Britain â “ and it is his mission to carry out the will of the people. Nothing must get in his way: not the opposition, nor the dissenters within his own party. Not even the rules of parliamentary democracy.With trademark intelligence, insight and scabrous humour, Ian McEwan pays tribute to Franz Kafkaâ ™s most famous work to engage with a world turned on its head.

Fox News war correspondent Trey Yingst shares his gripping, firsthand account of the events of October 7, 2023, and the ensuing war, offering riveting insight and fresh facts that clarify the scope and magnitude of this latest and most dramatic outbreak in one of the bloodiest, most nuanced, and longest-standing conflicts in modern history. On the morning of October 7, 2023, the militant group known as Hamas launched a vicious attack on Israel in the most recent stage of the deeply complicated and decades-long Israel-Palestine conflict. The assault, which took place on Shabbat—the day of rest for the Jewish people—instantly became known among Israelis and the world as “Black Saturday.”On October 7, Fox News Correspondent Trey Yingst was on the ground along the Gaza border and witnessed firsthand the devastation, shock, and deep sorrow that whirled through Israel. A seasoned journalist who has reported from some of the most dangerous hotspots around the world, including the frontlines in Ukraine, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, Yingst was just one among many people plunged into the terrifying chaos of that horrific event. In this shocking and eye-opening chronicle, he pieces together the story of that tragic day and reveals how he risked his life searching for answers to essential questions in real time--who within Israel had been attacked; what happened to them; who, potentially, was next--while exploring the impact on both Israelis and Palestinians as a full-scale war ramps up and peace grows more elusive. “We have a responsibility now to account for and record these events—and tell the world the truth,” Yingst writes. “We cannot look away.”Committed to reporting the whole truth, on both sides of the Israel-Gaza border, Yingst interviewed a range of exclusive contacts to incorporate multiple perspectives. From conversations with Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and high-ranking soldiers, to interviews with Senior Hamas official Dr. Bassem Naim and Gazan journalist Nael Ghaboun, to heartbreaking accounts from civilians placed in the crosshairs of the attack and conflict that followed, Yingst takes us inside the newest phase of an old war in which thousands more people—men, women, and children—are suffering.Combining candor, grit, and veracity, Yingst paints a vivid picture of horrors and violence, matched by acts of courage and humanity that cut through the darkness. A testament to unwavering resilience and tenacity, Black Saturday is the riveting chronicle of one journalist’s experience relentlessly pursuing the truth in the face of terror.Black Saturday will include a 16-pages of full-color photographs.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER AND A FINANCIAL TIMES, SUNDAY TIMES AND TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 The best book on football I have ever read Daniel Finkelstein Fascinating and educational. An enjoyable and informative read Sir Kenny Dalglish Deserves a place among the great modern books on football Sam Wallace, chief football writer, Telegraph______________________________The insider account of the data revolution that has swept through the modern football world written by one of its key architects, Ian Graham.Between 2012 and 2023, Ian Graham worked as Liverpool FC s Director of Research. His tenure coincided with the clubâ ™s greatest period of success since the 1980s, including winning the Premier League in 2020 â “ Liverpoolâ ™s first league title after an agonising three decades.Here for the first time, Graham reveals the fascinating data that informed some of the clubâ ™s most pivotal moments of the past decade, from the appointment of Jurgen Klopp as manager in 2015 to the signing of Mohamed Salah in 2017. Along the way, he shares groundbreaking insight into the modern game, including how a season largely played behind closed doors transformed our understanding of home team advantage, or why the GOAT (greatest of all time) might not be who you think. And, in a game that is increasingly dominated by an elite few, Graham charts a path for the future where a data-savvy competitor will always find the edge.______________________________ A fascinating, witty and remarkably insightful account of Liverpool s reinvention and a clear-eyed, detailed explanation of the inner workings of modern football. Nobody is better qualified to tell either of those stories than Ian Graham, who stands as one of the most (quietly) significant figures in the recent history of the club and the sport Rory Smith, author of Expected Goals and Chief Soccer Correspondent, New York Times Never before has the data revolution in football been described so well from the inside. Christoph Biermann, author of Football Hackersâ ˜How to Win the Premier League gives you three books for the price of one: a book about all of the silly inefficiencies plaguing European football, a book about what it s like to be empowered to use outside-the-box thinking to help turn your boyhood club into the best team in the world, and a book about how football actually works. If he really wanted to, Ian could easily put me out of a job.â ™Ryan Oâ ™Hanlon, author of Net Gains and staff writer ESPN*A Sunday Times bestseller August 2024

So this is permanence, edited by Jon Savage with a foreword by Deborah Curtis, presents the intensely personal writings of one of the most enigmatic and influential songwriters and performers of the late twentieth century, Joy Division s Ian Curtis. The songs of Joy Division, infused with the energy of punk but steeped in a resigned longing, were born of Manchester in the late seventies - a once flourishing industrial city in decline. They were the songs too of Ian Curtis s inner tragedies, as he battled depression, epilepsy and debilitating stage fright. Ian Curtis committed suicide in 1980, on the eve of the band s first American tour. Interspersed with the lyrics are previously unpublished facsimile pages of Ian s notebooks, which throw his highly emotive lyrics into fascinating relief and cast light on the creative process of this singularly poetic songwriter.

The definitive biography of Sir Ian McKellen from an acclaimed biographer In 2001, Ian McKellen put on the robe and pointed hat of a wizard named Gandalf and won a place in the hearts of Tolkien fans worldwide. Though his role in the film adaptation of Lord of the Rings introduced him to a new audience, McKellen had a thriving career a lifetime before his visit to Middle Earth. He made his West End acting debut in 1964 in James Saundersâ ™s A Scent of Flowers, but it was in 1980 that he took Broadway by storm when he played Antonio Salieri in Peter Shafferâ ™s Tony-Award-winning play Amadeus.He has starred in over four hundred plays and films and he is that rare character: a celebrity whose distinguished political and social service has transcended his international fame to reach beyond the stage and screen. The breadth of his careerâ ”professional, personal and politicalâ ”has been truly staggering: Macbeth (opposite Judi Dench), Iago, King Lear, Chekhovâ ™s Sorin in The Seagull and Becketâ ™s tramp Estragon (opposite Patrick Stewart) in Waiting for Godot. Add to all this his tireless political activism in the cause of gay equality and you have a veritable phenomenon. Garry Oâ ™Connorâ ™s Ian McKellen: A Biography probes the heart of the actor, recreating his greatest stage roles and exploring his personal life. Ian McKellen will show readers what makes a great actor tick. His life story has been a constantly developing drama and this biography is the next chapter.

A fresh portrait of the man behind James Bond, and his enduring impact, by an award-winning biographer with unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers. Ian Fleming s greatest creation, James Bond, has had an enormous and ongoing impact on our culture. What Bond represents about ideas of masculinity, the British national psyche and global politics has shifted over time, as has the interpretation of the life of his author.But Fleming himself was more mysterious and subtle than anything he wrote. Ian s childhood with his gifted brother Peter and his extraordinary mother set the pattern for his ambition to be the complete man , and he would strive for the means to achieve this completeness all his life. Only a thriller writer for his last twelve years, his dramatic personal life and impressive career in Naval Intelligence put him at the heart of critical moments in world history, while also providing rich inspiration for his fiction.Exceptionally well connected, and widely travelled, from the United States and Soviet Russia to his beloved Jamaica, Ian had access to the most powerful political figures at a time of profound change. Nicholas Shakespeare is one of the most gifted biographers working today. His talent for uncovering material that casts new light on his subjects is fully evident in this masterful, definitive biography.His unprecedented access to the Fleming family papers and his nose for a story make this a fresh and eye-opening picture of a man whose life was overshadowed by his famous creation.

The essential introduction to the Middle Ages by the bestselling author of The Time Traveller s Guide to Medieval EnglandWe tend to think of the Middle Ages as a dark, backward and unchanging time characterised by violence, ignorance and superstition. By contrast we believe progress arose from science and technological innovation, and that inventions of recent centuries created the modern world.We couldn t be more wrong. As Ian Mortimer shows in this fascinating book, people s horizons - their knowledge, experience and understanding of the world - expanded dramatically. Life was utterly transformed between 1000 and 1600, marking the transition from a warrior-led society to that of Shakespeare.Just as The Time Traveller s Guide to Medieval England revealed what it was like to live in the fourteenth century, Medieval Horizons provides the perfect primer to the era as a whole. It outlines the enormous cultural changes that took place - from literacy to living standards, inequality and even the developing sense of self - thereby correcting misconceptions and presenting the period as a revolutionary age of fundamental importance in the development of the Western world.Praise for Ian Mortimer: The endlessly inventive Ian Mortimer is the most remarkable medieval historian of our time - The Times

Did you know that anyone--addicts or non-addicts--can benefit from working the Twelve Steps and find the freedom, joy, and intimacy with God that their hearts long for?We all suffer from a sense of spiritual homelessness--a feeling that we re not fully at home in the world. To cope with our painful feelings and life traumas, we search for quick fixes that eventually become habitual, self-destructive behaviors that ultimately create more problems than they solve.As a person in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, Ian Cron is no stranger to these destructive habits. It wasn t until he embraced the Twelve Steps that he found true freedom. He knows from personal experience that Twelve Step recovery is more than just a life-saving strategy for guiding substance users into sobriety. Everybody is addicted to something to numb the discomfort of living in a messed-up world, he says, but the good news is that if you committedly work the steps, you will eventually have a vital spiritual awakening that will give you an entirely new and radically beautiful orientation toward the life God has for you.If you long for sustainable healing and joy amid life s messiness, The Fix invites you to:Journey step-by-step through a spiritual curriculum that has helped millions overcome trauma, pain, and brokenness for over eight decadesUnderstand how the Twelve Steps can be a transformative tool not only for people with chemical or behavioral addictions but for anyone who wants to move beyond self-help to a spiritual awakeningCatch yourself in the act of self-sabotaging behaviors and understand how each day is a new opportunity to trade in self-willed reformation for grace-powered transformation My original subtitle for this book--Twelve Steps to Unscrewing Your Screwed-Up Life--was a little over the top, Ian comments. But anyone who has ever fallen for a quick fix (like drugs, alcohol, porn, overeating, work, religion, people-pleasing, and more) knows firsthand how our self-prescribed treatment plans derail us. They might not be as visible as empty bottles stashed inside a desk drawer, but they are just as life-complicating and soul-crushing. With his characteristic wit and transparent self-disclosure, Ian guides us in learning how to work each of the Twelve Steps so we will finally be given a new pair of glasses through which we will be able to see ourselves, others, and the world in a startlingly new way--and ultimately take hold of the freedom God has been waiting to give us all along.

One day Ian Marchant, acclaimed author of books on music, railways and pubs, decided, as all men of a certain age must, to have a dig around his family history. Surprisingly quickly, a web search informed him that his seven-times-great great-grandfather, Thomas Marchant had left a detailed diary from 1714 to 1728. So far, so jolly ... Life-loving diarist Thom - who liked a drink and a game of cards - feels recognisably Marchant to Ian. With fascinating detail we learn about Thom s family farm and fishponds; about dung, horses and mud; about beer, the wife s nights out, his own job troubles and their shared worries for their children. But as Ian digs deeper beyond the Sussex diary s bucolic portrait he discovers a subtext - a family descended from immigrants, with antiestablishment politics, who are struggling with illness, political instability and cash crises - just as their country does three centuries on. Rich and immersive, One Fine Day draws a living portrait of Marchant family life in the 1720s and how their England (rainy, muddy, politically turbulent, illnessridden) became the England of the 2020s.
