Kniha - autor Stuart Douglas, 400 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná It is 1981. Glasgow is dying and good families must grift to survive. Agnes Bain has always expected more from life. She dreams of greater things: a house with its own front door and a life bought and paid for outright (like her perfect, but false, teeth). But Agnes is abandoned by her philandering husband, and soon she and her three children find themselves trapped in a decimated mining town. As she descends deeper into drink, the children try their best to save her, yet one by one they must abandon her to save themselves. It is her son Shuggie who holds out hope the longest. Shuggie is different. Fastidious and fussy, he shares his mother’s sense of snobbish propriety. The miners' children pick on him and adults condemn him as no’ right. But Shuggie believes that if he tries his hardest, he can be normal like the other boys and help his mother escape this hopeless place. Douglas...

'A superbly gifted storyteller and a craftswoman in a league of her own' Hilary Mantel FROM THE BOOKER-SHORTLISTED, PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR 'It is a gift in this life that we do not know what awaits us'In March 2020 Lucy Barton's ex-husband William pleads with her to leave New York and escape to a coastal house he has rented in Maine. Lucy reluctantly agrees, leaving the washing-up in the sink, expecting to be back in a week or two. Weeks turn into months, and it's just Lucy, William, and their complex past together in a little house nestled against the sea.Rich with empathy and a searing clarity, Lucy by the Sea evokes the fragility and uncertainty of the recent past, as well as the possibilities that those long, quiet days can inspire.

V trojici brilantních povídek Keeganová zkoumá různé podoby vztahů a příčiny toho, co je narušuje a ničí. V titulním příběhu Na konci dne nás seznamuje s mužem, který tráví dlouhý víkend osudovým přemítáním nad ženou, s níž by mohl strávit život, jen kdyby se byl kdysi zachoval jinak, než jak se stalo. V následující povídce Pomalá, bolestná smrt sledujeme spisovatelku na rezidenčním pobytu v přímořském domě literáta Heinricha Bölla. Její pobyt ovšem naruší příjezd akademika, který ji vnucuje nejen svoje názory, ale také samu svou přítomnost. Třetí příběh Antarktida věnuje autorka vdané ženě, která odjíždí z města s jasným cílem: Zjistit, jaké to je, vyspat se s jiným mužem. Plány se nevyvíjí tak, jak si představovala, a ona končí v sevření majetnického cizince. Každý z příběhů sleduje jiný osud, přesto je všem společné téma pokřivených vztahů a zkoumání toho, co mezi ženy a muže klade překážky. Ať už jde o nedostatek štědrosti, tíhu očekávání či přítomnost hrozícího násilí. Na první pohled nenápadné povídky jsou hluboké, silné a zůstanou ve čtenářích ještě dlouho po přečtení poslední stránky.

‘They all broke the rules. They all crossed into forbidden territory. They all tampered with the laws that lay down who should be loved, and how. And how much.’This is the story of Rahel and Estha, twins growing up among the banana vats and peppercorns of their blind grandmother’s factory, and amid scenes of political turbulence in Kerala. Armed only with the innocence of youth, they fashion a childhood in the shade of the wreck that is their family: their lonely, lovely mother, their beloved Uncle Chacko (pickle baron, radical Marxist, bottom-pincher) and their sworn enemy, Baby Kochamma (ex-nun, incumbent grand-aunt).Arundhati Roy’s Booker Prize-winning novel was the literary sensation of the 1990s: a story anchored to anguish but fuelled by wit and magic.

Kniha - autor Hilary Mantel, 740 stran, česky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá V románu Zrcadlo a světlo se završuje trilogie pojednávající o osudech Thomase Cromwella, chudého kovářského syna, který se vlastními schopnostmi vypracoval na pravou ruku anglického krále Jindřicha VIII. První dva svazky - Wolf Hall a Předveďte mrtvé - líčí Cromwellův vzestup a okolnosti, za kterých se postupně stal Jindřichovým nepostradatelným rádcem. Zrcadlo a světlo navazuje přesně v okamžiku, kde druhý díl končil: kat si čistí krvavý meč, dvoní dámy ukládají do rakve bezhlavé tělo Anny Boleynové. A Thomas Cromwell vyráží na závěrečný úsek své pouti, přes vrchol politické moci a pád z výsluní královy obliby až k popravčímu špalku. Kritika označuje cromwellovskou trilogii Hilary Mantel za největší anglicky psaný historický román, který zatím v tomto století vznikl. Vydání knihy podpořilo Ministerstvo kultury České republiky

Kniha - autor Deborah Levy, 128 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná What does it mean to be free - as an artist, a woman, a mother or daughter? And what is the price of that freedom? In this dazzling memoir, Deborah Levy confronts the essential questions of modern womanhood with humour, pragmatism, and profoundly resonant wisdom. Reflecting on the period when she wrote the Man Booker Prize-shortlisted Hot Milk - when her mother was dying, her daughters were leaving home, her marriage was coming to an end - she is characteristically eloquent on the social expectations and surreal realities of daily life. And expanding far beyond these bounds, she describes a uniquely frank, wise and thrilling manifesto for female experience: embracing the exhilarating terror of freedom, seeking to understand what that freedom could mean and how it might feel.

Now seven factions or 'hives' co-govern the world, their rule fuelled by benign censorship, oracular statistical analytics and technological abundance. But this is a fragile Utopia - and someone is intent on pushing it to breaking point. Convicted for his crimes, celebrated for his talents, Mycroft Canner is the indentured instrument - and confidant - of some of the world's most powerful figures. When he is asked to investigate a bizarre theft, he finds himself on the trail of a conspiracy that could shatter the tranquil world order the Hives have maintained for three centuries.

Horské kolo 29" - hliníkový rám, 12 rychlostí, přehazovačka Shimano SLX , vzduchová vidlice RockShox SID SL (zdvih 100 mm), brzdy Shimano SLX Kona Kahuna DL Mauve 2022 Small je horské kolo neboli MTB. To značí, že by mělo být provozováno v terénu střední náročnosti. Jeho smyslem je efektivní přenos síly nohou do jízdy vpřed. Geometrie rámu umožňuje zachovávat skloněný posed, kdy při stoupání svaly nohou zabírají velmi účinně a kolo přitom nemá tendence zvedat přední kolo. Rám je vyrobený z duralu, takže ho popisují atributy jako nízká váha a pevnost. Na Kona Kahuna DL Mauve 2022 Small se o tlumení nerovností budou starat samozřejmě nohy, kola, sedlo, gripy, řídítka, ale taky odpružená vidlice RockShox SID SL se zdvihem 100 mm. Zadní odpružení můžete však zamknout a zabránit tak pohupování nebo aby se tlumič nehýbal během výjezdů. Kola tohoto bicyklu používají průměr 29". Díky tomuto rozměru bude kolo ochotně tlumit hrboly na cestě, což je prima pro jednoduchý...
