Viah se narodila v roce 1995 v Praze rodičům vietnamského původu. Viino debutové album Tears of a Giant odráží základní stavební kameny její osobnosti: křehkost, sugestivnost a procítěnost. Viah se narodila v roce 1995 v Praze rodičům vietnamského původu. Po letech v tanečním prostředí a na divadelních prknech se v sedmnácti stáhla do svého pokoje ke klavíru, a teprve tehdy začala pracovat se svým hlasem. Zásadní pro ni byla účast v SuperStar a následné propojení s hudebním producentem Jiřím Burianem. Díky němu se stala vokálistkou a klávesistkou v indie kapele Republic of Two, tanečnicí v projektu Kapitána Dema, ale hlavně Viou. Ve své tvorbě se věnuje zejména tématům identity a autenticity. Intimní vokály jsou zabaleny do elektronické produkce Jiřího Buriana, doprovázena je hlasy Justina Lavashe, Jiřího Buriana a Niro Baitse.

A collection of "side-splitting" jokes collected from dads around the world, all of whom think they are hilarious Why did the banana go to the doctors? Because he wasn''t peeling very well! Proving the age-old maxim that "it''s in the way that you tell them," dads have always been renowned for being truly godawful joke tellers. Whether it''s telling them at the wrong moment, misremembering the punchline, or it just simply being a terrible joke to begin with, dads are an embarrassment to the whole family when it comes to trying to be funny. This collection is full to the brim with jokes that only dad would dare tell—jokes that will make you groan, sigh, and then probably groan again. Dads take great pleasure in these kinds of jokes and some of them are so terrible they blossom into actual ribticklers—but don''t tell your dad that, it will only encourage him.

This study argues early African American literature constitutes an abiding repository of modern democratic thought that is lacking in the political philosophy we normally analyze. Douglas A. Jones’s Pragmatics of Democracy reads African American literature, from its beginnings through the mid-nineteenth century, to theorize how we have come to regard democracy as the most excellent form of political life. Jones notes that the aims of democracy, especially consent of the governed and equality under the law, can seem like tenets of governance that humans desire instinctively. But human nature does not correlate absolutely to politics. Jones argues that political selfhood is formed by “bodily events.” He proposes a typology of such experiences that dispose persons toward democratic subjectivity: ecstasy, impersonality, violence, respectability, and care. African American literature before Emancipation reveals the democratic features of these categories that conventional political philosophy ignores or obscures. Given their lives as enslaved persons or the descendants of enslaved persons, early black writers crafted narratives about achieving democratic subjectivity that were missing in other Anglo-American canons. Pragmatics of Democracy discusses the works of well-known figures such as Phillis Wheatley, Harriet E. Wilson, and Frederick Douglass as well as those of more neglected writers such as Richard Allen, Peter Paul Simmons, James McCune Smith, and Frank J. Webb.

Eight months have passed since the D-Day landings, when the Allies gained their foothold in North-West Europe. Since then the British Army has fought near continuously against the German military. Now, they stand ready for their final test: the battle for the German homeland.Drawing on the sound archive of the Imperial War Museums and other personal acounts, military historian Geraint Jones brings this this often-overlooked period of the war vividly to life in the words of British soldiers who were there, from war-weary men who have survived many months of combat to new recruits facing Hitler''s fanatics for the first time.In Voices of Victory we join the soldiers battling to break through the Siegfried Line and clear the Reichswald forest, where fighting was from one tree to the next. At the crossing of the Rhine we go into action with the commandos, and jump behind enemy lines with the Paras. We are taken into the horror of Belsen when the concentration camp is liberated, hear from the witnesses of the forgotten battles of April, and end the war deep in Germany, with victory in Europe.

Master of One is a fantasy unlike any other.Rags the thief has never met a pocket he couldnÂ’t pick, but when heÂ’s captured by a sorcerer with world-ending plans, he realizes even he is in over his head. Forced to use his finely honed skills to nab pieces of an ancient fae relic, Rags is stunned to discover that those “relics” just happen to be people: A distractingly handsome Fae prince,A too-honorable Queensguard deserter,A scrappy daughter of a disgraced noble family,A deceptively sweet-natured prince, A bona fide member of the Resistance,And him. Rags. They may all be captives in the sorcererÂ’s terrible scheme, but that wonÂ’t stop them from fighting back. And, sure, six unexpected allies against one wicked enemy doesnÂ’t make for generous odds, but lucky for him, RagÂ’s not generous—heÂ’s smart. And he has a plan that just might get them out of this alive.With the heist and intrigue of Six of Crows and the dark fairy tale feel of The Cruel Prince, this young adult fantasy debut will have readers rooting for a pair of reluctant heroes as they take on a world-ending fae prophecy, a malicious royal plot, and, most dangerously of all, their feelings for each other.Â

An utterly unique take on the most extraordinary period of the twentieth century, from one of Britain''s most exciting literary writers.In November 1960, Frank Sinatra gave Marilyn Monroe a dog. His name was Maf. He had an instinct for the twentieth century. For politics. For psychoanalysis. For literature. For interior decoration. This is his story.Maf the dog was with Marilyn for the last two years of her life. Not only a picaresque hero himself, he was also a scholar of the adventuring rogue in literature and art, witnessing the rise of America''s new liberalism, civil rights, the space race, the New York critics, and was Marilyn Monroe''s constant companion.Maf was very much a real historical figure, with his license and photographs sold at auction along with Marilyn''s other person affects. Through his eyes we get an insight into the life of Monroe herself, and a fascinating new angle on the most talked-about decade of recent times.
