It is twenty years since the events of La Belle Sauvage: The Book of Dust Volume One unfolded and saw the baby Lyra Belacqua begin her life-changing journey. It is almost ten years since readers left Lyra and the love of her young life, Will Parry, on a park bench in Oxford's Botanic Gardens at the end of the ground-breaking, bestselling His Dark Materials sequence. Now, in The Secret Commonwealth, we meet Lyra Silvertongue. And she is no longer a child . . . The second volume of Philip Pullman's The Book of Dust sees Lyra, now twenty years old, and her daemon Pantalaimon, forced to navigate their relationship in a way they could never have imagined, and drawn into the complex and dangerous factions of a world that they had no idea existed. Pulled along on his own journey too is Malcolm; once a boy with a boat and a mission to save a baby from the flood, now a man with a strong sense of duty and a desire to do what is right. Theirs is a world at once familiar and extraordinary, and they must travel far beyond the edges of Oxford, across Europe and into Asia, in search for what is lost - a city haunted by daemons, a secret at the heart of a desert, and the mystery of the elusive Dust. The Secret Commonwealth is truly a book for our times; a powerful adventure and a thought-provoking look at what it is to understand yourself, to grow up and make sense of the world around you. This is storytelling at its very best from one of our greatest writers.

Historické thrillery nebo také staromódní viktoriánské krváky, tak Pullman na svých webových stránkách označuje čtyřdílnou sérii knih o Sally Lockhartové. Záměrně v nich zpracovává otřepaná klišé melodramatu a činí tak s gustem a umem dobrého vypravěče. Druhý příběh z kvarteta se opět odehrává v temných, špinavých uličkách i ve vyhlášených salonech a kabaretech viktoriánského Londýna. Sally si v hlavním městě otevřela firmu zabývající se finančním poradenstvím. Její práce však zdaleka nepředstavuje nudnou poklidnou rutinu, jak by se snad mohlo zdát. Když na dveře její kanceláře zaklepe stará dáma a žádá Sally o pomoc v jisté finanční záležitosti, dívka neváhá a podivného případu se ujme. Svou roli v něm hraje zaoceánský parník, který se bez zjevné příčiny potopil, a k smrti vyděšený kouzelník, který zmizel uprostřed představení. Sally se oběma záhadám snaží přijít na kloub a při svém pátrání narazí na spleť stop, které směřují k zločinci z nejvyšších společenských kruhů. Hrdinka se tak každým krokem nevědomky zaplétá do smrtelného nebezpečí… Pro čtenáře od 12 let.

Kniha Prachu, první díl zamýšlené trilogie, nás zavádí do stejného prostředí, v němž se odehrávaly Jeho temné esence (tedy Zlatý kompas a spol.), Pullman ale děj posunul do doby o deset let dříve. Hrdinou je jedenáctiletý Malcolm Polstead, bystrý chlapec s výborným postřehem. Svou nenápadností je přímo předurčen stát se špionem. V hostinci jeho otce se schází celý Oxford. Malcolm a jeho daemon zde nepozorovaně vyslechnou spoustu novinek a klevet. Jenže pak se chlapci do rukou dostane tajná zpráva, v níž se mluví o nebezpečné substanci zvané Prach. Adresátka zprávy Malcolma vyhledá a požádá ho o spolupráci ohledně předávání informací. V hostinci Malcolmových rodičů se totiž začínají objevovat nezvyklí hosté, ať už z nejvyšších společenských a politických kruhů, nebo z podsvětí, a všichni jeví zájem o nemluvně jménem Lyra, kterou mají v péči jeptišky v nedalekém převorství. Turbulentní události a ničivá potopa nakonec způsobí, že se hrdina spolu s vesnickou dívkou Alicí ocitnou ve člunu “La Belle Sauvage”. Na palubě s nimi cestuje šestiměsíční Lyra, kterou čtenáři znají jako hlavní postavu Jeho temných esencí, a obě starší děti mají za úkol dostat ji do bezpečí k jejímu otci, lordu Asrielovi. V knize se opět kromě lorda Asriela setkáme i s Lyřinou matkou, paní Coulterovou, a s Romunem Coramem van Texelem.

Vydejte se s Lyrou za dobrodružstvím až do tajuplné Střední Asie se zastávkou v magické Praze. Trojdílná série Jeho temné esence, tj. Zlatý kompas, Jedinečný nůž a Jantarové kukátko, se stala mezinárodním bestsellerem a předlohou divadelních, seriálových i filmových adaptací. Pullman se do světa, který trojicí knih stvořil, po čase znovu vrátil. Výsledkem je další úžasná trilogie, v níž se opět setkáváme s hrdinkou Lyrou a jejím daemonem Pantalaimonem. V první Knize Prachu s podtitulem La Belle Sauvage (Argo, 2019) byla Lyra teprve miminko, nicméně díky proroctví divoženek už tehdy nadmíru důležité. Druhý díl Knihy Prachu, Tajné společenství, zastihuje dospělou Lyru na studiích v Oxfordu. Její vztah s Pantíkem prochází krizí. Daemon se při jedné osamělé noční procházce stane svědkem vraždy neznámého muže. Do rukou se mu dostane jeho peněženka a s ní i přístup k deníku mrtvého, obsahující výbušné informace. A pak už události naberou turbulentní spád. Mezi Lyrou a Pantíkem dojde k prudké hádce, daemon od Lyry uteče a oba se, každý na vlastní pěst, vydávají na cestu přes celou Evropu až do Asie. Lyra se zastaví také v Praze, kde se seznámí s jistým Václavem Kubíčkem a podivným ohnivým mužem. Cílem Pantalaimonovy i Lyřiny cesty je tajuplné město ukryté v srdci pouště. Shledá se Lyra opět se svým daemonem a odhalí konečně tajemství Prachu? A proč po ní tak sveřepě pátrá mocné Magisterium? "Pullmanův příběh nepřestává probouzet celou řadu otázek... V knize se elegantně mísí aktuální témata, od uprchlické krize v Evropě po problematiku pravdy v postpravdivé době. Pullmanovo vyprávění navíc nepozbývá nic ze své uhrančivosti." (The Times) "Děj se řítí kupředu, plný nebezpečí a překvapení, a přináší výsostnou potěchu z četby. Pullmanova schopnost vystihnout pouhými několika řádky postavu, místo či motiv je téměř zázračná." (New Statesman) "Dlouhá, vyčerpávající, spletitá cesta hrdinů je plná krásy, nebezpečí i filozofických myšlenek." (Metro)

Od udalostí odohrávajúcich sa v La Belle Sauvage uplynulo dvadsať rokov. Vtedy sa Lyra Belacqua ocitla na začiatku rušnej cesty svojho života. V Tajnom spoločenstve ju spoznávame ako Lyru Zlatoústu. Už dávno nie je dieťa... Lyrin vzťah s jej démonom Pantalaimonom sa natoľko kom¬plikuje, že sa obaja dostávajú na miesta a do zložitých situácií, o akých by sa im ani nesnívalo. Aj Malcolm, ten chlapec s loďkou, ktorý sa kedysi odhodlal zachrániť maličkú Lyru pred povodňou a prenasledovateľmi, sa vydáva na cestu, teraz už ako zrelý muž so zmyslom pre povinnosť a s túžbou konať správne. Ich nebezpečné a dobrodružné cesty vedú naprieč Európou až do Ázie za strateným mestom démonov, tajomstvami púš¬te a zá¬hadou tajomného prachu. Z anglického originálu The Book of Dust: The Secret of Commonwealth (David Fickling Books, UK 2019) preložila Oľga Kralovičová. Ukážka z textu Vyzeral ako kuna, no v skutočnosti bol démon. Bolo ťažké povedať, v čom je rozdiel, ale každý človek v Lyrinom svete by to ihneď spoznal, tak ako poznal vôňu kávy alebo červenú farbu. Človek bez démona alebo démon sám, bez človeka v do¬hľade, sa považoval za čosi príšerné, tajomné, nemožné. Ni¬jaké obyčajné ľudské bytosti sa nemohli takýmto spôsobom oddeliť, hoci bosorky to údajne dokázali. Schopnosť, ktorú Lyra a Pan mali, bola zvláštna a draho za ňu zaplatili pred ¬ôsmimi rokmi vo svete mŕtvych. Odkedy sa vrátili domov do Oxfordu po tom čudnom dobrodružstve, nikomu o tom nepovedali a dávali si veľký pozor, aby to utajili; ale niekedy, v poslednom čase častejšie, jednoducho museli odísť jeden od druhého.

What do Philip Pullman and J.K. Rowling have in common that has made both of their stories so successful? What does Pullman listen to while he writes – and who, or what, is Dust? Pullman’s award-winning trilogy His Dark Materials has been appreciated by readers of all ages. It is now set to welcome new fans as it is adapted for television by the BBC in 2018, and the first part of his new trilogy, The Book of Dust, at last sees publication. Nicholas Tucker, a leading authority on children’s literature, writes about the man he knows as a friend. Unpacking and examining Pullman’s life and the sources he drew on for his masterpiece, he explores the world of science, theology, imagination and adventure that Pullman has created. Including a personal interview with Pullman himself, Darkness Visible offers a unique exploration of the author’s work – and its controversies. “Enigmas from His Dark Materials are unraveled… Unmissable for all Pullman readers" Sussex Express Nicholas Tucker is the author of nine books about children, childhood and reading, including The Child and the Book, (Cambridge University Press, 1981 and 1990). He has also written six books for children, broadcasts frequently and reviews in the national press. He lives in Lewes, East Sussex and sometimes finds himself reading aloud the same books to some of his eight grandchildren as he once did to their mothers and father.

In quest of the unpublished manuscript of a martyred Yiddish writer, the American novelist Nathan Zuckerman travels to Soviet-occupied Prague in the mid-1970s. There, in a nation straightjacketed by totalitarian Communism, he discovers a literary predicament, marked by institutionalised oppression, that is rather different from his own. He also discovers, among the oppressed writers with whom he quickly becomes embroiled in a series of bizarre and poignant adventures, an appealingly perverse kind of heroism. The Prague Orgy, consisting of entries from Zuckerman's notebooks recording his sojourn among these outcast artists, completes the trilogy and epilogue Zuckerman Bound. It provides a startling ending to Roth's intricately designed magnum opus on the unforeseen consequences of art.In 1997 Philip Roth won the Pulitzer Prize for American Pastoral. In 1998 he received the National Medal of Arts at the White House, and in 2002 the highest award of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Gold Medal in Fiction, previously awarded to John Dos Passos, William Faulkner and Saul Bellow, among others. He has twice won the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award. He has won the PEN/Faulkner Award three times. In 2005 The Plot Against America received the Society of American Historians’ Prize for ‘the outstanding historical novel on an American theme for 2003–2004’.Recently Roth received PEN’s two most prestigious prizes: in 2006 the PEN/Nabokov Award ‘for a body of work . . . of enduring originality and consummate craftsmanship’ and in 2007 the PEN/Saul Bellow Award for Achievement in American Fiction, given to a writer whose ‘scale of achievement over a sustained career . . . places him or her in the highest rank of American literature’. In 2011 Roth won the International Man Booker Prize.Roth is the only living American writer to have his work published in a comprehensive, definitive edition by the Library of America.

Why are we here? What''s the point of existence? On the ''big questions'' of meaning and purpose, Western thought has been dominated by the dichotomy of traditional religion and secular atheism. In this pioneering work, Philip Goff argues that it is time to move on from both God and atheism. Through an exploration of contemporary cosmology and cutting-edge philosophical research on consciousness, Goff argues for cosmic purpose: the idea that the universe is directed towards certain goals, such as the emergence of life.In contrast to religious thinkers, Goff argues that the traditional God is a bad explanation of cosmic purpose. Instead, he explores a range of alternative possibilities for accounting for cosmic purpose, from the speculation that we live in a computer simulation to the hypothesis that the universe itself is a conscious mind. Goff scrutinizes these options with analytical rigour, laying the foundations for a new paradigm of philosophical enquiry into the middle ground between God and atheism. Ultimately, Goff outlines a way of living in hope that cosmic purpose is still unfolding, involving political engagement and a non-literalist interpretation of traditional religion.

A dazzling speculative novel of 'counterfactual history' from one of America's most highly-regarded science fiction authors, Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle includes an introduction by Eric Brown in Penguin Modern Classics. Philip K. Dick's acclaimed cult novel gives us a horrifying glimpse of an alternative world - one where the Allies have lost the Second World War. In this nightmare dystopia the Nazis have taken over New York, the Japanese control California and the African continent is virtually wiped out. In a neutral buffer zone in America that divides the world's new rival superpowers, lives the author of an underground bestseller. His book offers a new vision of reality - an alternative theory of world history in which the Axis powers were defeated - giving hope to the disenchanted. Does 'reality' lie with him, or is his world just one among many others? Philip Kindred Dick (1928-82) was born in Chicago in 1928. His career as a science fiction writer comprised an early burst of short stories followed by a stream of novels, typically character studies incorporating androids, drugs, and hallucinations. His best works are generally agreed to be The Man in the High Castle and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, the inspiration for the movie Blade Runner. If you enjoyed The Man in the High Castle, you might like Yevgeny Zamyatin's We, also available in Penguin Classics.

Understanding the human mind and how it relates to the world that we experience has challenged philosophers for centuries. How then do we even begin to think about 'minds' that are not human?Science now has plenty to say about the properties of mind. In recent decades, the mind - both human and otherwise - has been explored by scientists in fields ranging from zoology to astrobiology, computer science to neuroscience. Taking a uniquely broad view of minds and where they might be found - including in plants, aliens, and God - Philip Ball pulls these multidisciplinary pieces together to explore what sorts of minds we might expect to find in the universe. In so doing, he offers for the first time a unified way of thinking about what minds are and what they can do, arguing that in order to understand our own minds and imagine those of others, we need to move on from considering the human mind as a standard against which all others should be measured, and to think about the 'space of possible minds'.By identifying and mapping out properties of mind without prioritizing the human, Ball sheds new light on a host of fascinating questions. What moral rights should we afford animals, and can we understand their thoughts? Should we worry that AI is going to take over society? If there are intelligent aliens out there, how could we communicate with them? Should we? Understanding the space of possible minds also reveals ways of making advances in understanding some of the most challenging questions in contemporary science: What is thought? What is consciousness? And what (if anything) is free will?The more we learn about the minds of other creatures, from octopuses to chimpanzees, and to imagine the potential minds of computers and alien intelligences, the greater the perspective we have on if and how our own is different. Ball's thrillingly ambitious The Book of Minds about the nature and existence of minds is more mind-expanding than we could imagine. In this fascinating panorama of other minds, we come to better know our own.

Simultaneously the Old Master market boomed, and art itself was politically weaponised in advance of approaching war.What was the conventional art against which Modernism was rebelling? Why did avant-garde artists become so obsessed with themselves? What persuaded a few bold collectors to buy difficult modern art? And why did others pay so much money for Old Masters?Art expert Philip Hook brings to bear a unique perspective on the art of a unique and extreme decade.
