Musician, novelist, poet, actor: Nick Cave (b. 1957) is a Renaissance man. His wide-ranging artistic output—always uncompromising, hypnotic, and intense—is defined by an extraordinary gift for storytelling. In Nick Cave: Mercy on Me, Reinhard Kleist employs a cast of characters drawn from Cave’s music and writing to tell the story of a formidable artist and influencer. Kleist paints an expressive and enthralling portrait of Cave’s childhood in Australia; his early years fronting The Birthday Party; the sublime highs of his success with The Bad Seeds; and the crippling lows of his battle with heroin. Capturing everything from Cave’s frenzied performances in Berlin to the tender moments he spent with love and muse Anita Lane, Kleist’s graphic biography, like Cave’s songs, is by turns electrifying, sentimental, morbid, and comic—but always engrossing.

Během pandemie covidu strávil dle svých slov Nick Cave celé hodiny na telefonu; jedním z lidí, s nimiž si volal nejčastěji, byl irský zpěvák a publicista Seán O'Hagan - a jejich hovory s postupem času nabývaly na intenzitě a začaly se točit kolem několika uzlových bodů: víry, umění, hudby, svobody, smutku a lásky. Oba přátelé se dohodli, že si telefonáty budou nahrávat - a z nějakých padesáti hodin nahrávek se po radikálním redakčním zpracování zrodila kniha Víra, naděje & masakr. Najdeme v ní vše, co jsme si od Nicka Cavea za čtyři dekády jeho oslnivé umělecké dráhy navykli očekávat; dostane se nám upřímné osobní zpovědi i originálních meditací nad smyslem života a umění, a ještě lecčeho navíc. Jak říká sám Cave: "Tahle kniha pro mě hodně znamená a myslím, že ji upřímně ocení i každý, komu se nějak zvrtnul život, koho trápí tvůrčí blok, kdo má problém se závislostí, kdo truchlí, kdo zažívá duchovní krizi, kdo se pídí po smyslu života, kdo hledá krásu, kdo se chce naučit, jak napsat píseň či odehrát koncert nebo jen tak existovat."

Celkový počet popisovaných smrtí na tomto albu je pak 65.

Audiokniha: Román rockové legendy Nicka Cavea, kde temnota potkává vykoupení Románový debut slavného australského hudebníka a zpěváka z roku 1989 v sobě spojuje tradice amerického blues, gospelu a rockové hudby. Autor dokáže čtenáře a nyní posluchače audioverze přivést do transu šamanskou silou vyprávění, ve kterém se spojuje bílá a černá magie, osobitá poetika plná romantických obrazů, biblických narážek morbidních představ, hrůzy i černočerného humoru s velkým čtenářským rozhledem. Hrdina příběhu Euchrid, geniální blázen, je vystaven vyvolávání démonů, bolesti a sadismu, až dojde k jeho osvícení prostřednictvím utrpení. Autor při tvorbě této knihy, tak jako hlavní hrdina, si navozoval extrémní duševní stavy, ale inspiroval se i temně romantickou francouzskou a americkou dekadentní literaturou. Barokně košatý drásající příběh je zasazen na americký jih 50. let, dominuje násilí, alkohol, zvrácenost a zvířecí instinkty. Četba z knihy vydané nakladatelstvím Argo v interpretaci Miloslava Königa souzní s autorovou děsivou zábavností a tragičností.

Chlívák, cesťák a mrtvý muž Zajda Munro je proklet a odsouzen k odchodu z pozemského světa hned v první větě románu. Ne že by si v životě nestačil užít. Fantazie tohoto velkohubého, samolibého a uhrančivého dandyho je mírně omezená: představit si umí jedině vagínu, a hned nato si tiskne dlaň do rozkroku, aby si ulevil. Ženy hodnotí a svléká pohledem jako neúnavný rentgen a s většinou z nich je hotov si okamžitě na jakémkoli místě zašukat. Už jen to vypadá jako jeho hlavní neřest, ale kromě toho ještě žvaní, pije, kouří, řídí jako magor a občas si rád šlehne. Takový je život hlavního hrdiny Zajdy, obchodního cestujícího s kosmetickými přípravky v Brightonu a okolí, mistra ve svém oboru. Zajdovi juniorovi, druhému hrdinovi románu, který svého tátu miluje láskou bezpodmínečnou a nekritickou, je devět let. Dvojice Zajda a Zajda mladší není nepodobná otci a synovi z Cesty Cormaca McCarthyho a každopádně je stejně nezapomenutelná. I Zajda se synkem jsou na cestě a zažívají svého druhu apokalypsu, třebaže v caveovském hávu, tedy groteskně utopenou v spermatu, vodce Smirnoff, tabákovém kouři a koksu. Nick Cave je tu ve svém živlu, je to jeho "knižní koncert" par excelence, nezapře žádný ze svých atributů: je drzoun, komik, provokatér, sprosťák, patetik i moralista najednou. O největším hitu renomovaného britského nakladatelství Canongate na tento rok, prodanému do třiceti zemí světa, napsal Irvine Welsh: "Kdyby orgasmy byly malé smrti, tak by nám bylo hned jasné, na co hlavní hrdina této knihy sejde ze světa. Smíchejte McCarthyho, Kafku a lidového komedianta, a vyjde vám Zajda Munro. Je to nenechavá četba nesoucí všechny známé Caveovy atributy: horor a lidství skryté pod tenkým povrchem ryčné a hravé odrhovačky."

‘A magisterial diary for bird lovers.’ ObserverWINNER – BOOK OF THE YEAR - East Anglian Book Awards 2023⭐⭐⭐⭐ The TelegraphAs seen on BBC Winterwatch 2023‘Honest, human and heart-grabbing. I loved this book so much.’ Sophie Pavelle, author of Forget Me Not‘Delightful’ Stephen Moss, author of Ten Birds that Changed the World‘Fascinating and thought-provoking’ Jake Fiennes, author of Land Healer‘Awe-filled and absorbing’ Nicola Chester, author of On Gallows DownThe Meaning of Geese is a book of thrilling encounters with wildlife, of tired legs, punctured tyres and inhospitable weather. Above all, it is the story of Nick Acheson’s love for the land in which he was born and raised, and for the wild geese that fill it with sound and spectacle every winter.Renowned naturalist and conservationist Nick Acheson spent countless hours observing and researching wild geese, transported through all weathers by his mother’s 40-year-old trusty red bicycle. He meticulously details the geese’s arrival, observing what they mean to his beloved Norfolk and the role they play in local people’s lives – and what role the birds could play in our changing world. During a time when many people faced the prospect of little work or human contact, Nick followed the pinkfeet and brent geese that filled the Norfolk skies and landscape as they flew in from Iceland and Siberia. In their flocks, Nick encountered rarer geese, including Russian white-fronts, barnacle geese and an extremely unusual grey-bellied brant, a bird he had dreamt of seeing since thumbing his mother’s copy of Peter Scott’s field guide as a child.To honour the geese’s great athletic migrations, Nick kept a diary of his sightings as well as the stories he discovered through the community of people, past and present, who loved them, too. Over seven months Nick cycles over 1,200 miles – the exact length of the pinkfeet’s migration to Iceland.

Řada hudebníků v rozhovorech mluvívá o tom, že by jednou chtěli napsat román, že je to ohromně láká – nakonec se však k tomu nikdy nedostanou. Anebo si opravdu čas najdou a dají do psaní veškerou píli a trpělivost, pak se ovšem ukáže, že se krapet přecenili a že snad měli raději zůstat u písní… To ale není případ Nicka Cavea. Ve svém románovém debutu A uzřela oslice anděla z roku 1989 skvěle mísí vlastní osobitou poetiku, plnou romantických obrazů, biblických narážek, morbidních představ i černočerného humoru, s velkým čtenářským rozhledem (inspirací mu byla především americká jižanská literatura, Williamem Faulknerem či Flannery O’Connorovou počínaje a Cormacem McCarthym konče). Jeho barokně košatému, grotesknímu příběhu, zasazenému na americký Jih 40. a 50. let dvacátého století, dominuje násilí, alkohol, zvrácenost a zvířecí instinkty; nechybí ani Boží trest a ďábelský smích. V románu A uzřela oslice anděla, kongeniálně přeloženém Tomášem Hráchem, se zkrátka nic neodpouští a za vše se tvrdě platí. Román sklidil nadšený ohlas světové kritiky pro svůj jazyk plný biblických metafor a sevřený příběh vyprávěný na pomezí snu a šílenství.

Jane Austen revolutionized the literary romance, using it as a platform from which to address issues of gender politics and class consciousness among the British middle-class of the late eighteenth century. The novels included in this collection from the elegant Knickerbocker Classics series—Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey, Persuasion, and Lady Susan—represent all of Austen's complete novels, and provide the reader with an entrance into the world she and her memorable characters inhabited. With witty, unflinching morality, Austen portrays English middle-class life as the eighteenth century came to a close and the nineteenth century began. Austen's heroines find happiness in many forms, each of the novels is a story of love and marriage—marriage for love, financial security, and for social status. In a publishing career that spanned less than ten years, her work brought her little personal fame and only a few positive reviews during her lifetime. It wasn't until the 1940s that she became widely accepted in academia as a great English writer. The second half of the 20th century saw a proliferation of Austen scholarship and the emergence of a fan culture. Austen's works continue to influence the course of the novel even as they charm readers today.

Every one of the world''s half a million tennis courts is, at its most basic, an identical blank canvas: a 78-foot by 36-foot rectangle, divided by a 3-foot-high net in its centre, and marked with eleven straight lines. But add in the elements of surface, space, wind, acoustics, crowds, shadows, humidity, and even air density, and every tennis court is unique-a work of art. And some are masterpieces.Nick Pachelli curates and profiles 200 of the world''s most beautiful, iconic, significant, alluring, and idiosyncratic tennis courts from across the globe, each breathtakingly photographed. He explores the heavyweights, including Wimbledon''s All England Lawn Tennis Club, which employs a hawk to keep stray birds from soiling the meticulous lawns. Arthur Ashe, the Grandstand, and Court 17 in Flushing, Queens, where hundreds of thousands of tennis fans gather every summer for the US Open. And there''s Court Philippe-Chatrier at Roland-Garros, whose clay seems to take on a different shade-burnt orange, burnt red, burgundy, umber-every time you see it.We visit far-flung treasures, such as Waiheke Tennis Club in New Zealand, where you''ll need to take a plane, then a ferry, then a car or bus, and then walk before arriving there. Indoor marvels, including the Tennis Club de Belgique, which evokes the hushed, reverent feeling of a theatre, with skylights illuminating the court and leaving the spectators in the shadows. Hidden jewels, such as the tiny Tennis Club San Stin in Venice, a secret, single outdoor clay court tucked away behind a villa and a 15-foot wall shrouded with vines.There are urban courts, including the Knickerbocker Field Club, deep in the heart of Flatbush, Brooklyn. Academies, like Rafael Nadal''s tennis temple in Mallorca, Spain. And the extreme: a single court completely isolated in the wilds of Scotland; a court in northern Spain revealed when the tide goes out, the sand hardens, and the metallic plates that serve as lines re-emerge; and a court in Kenya made out of termite mounds.Throughout, Pachelli not only conducts a masterful, once-in-a-lifetime tour of the world''s best courts, but in his writing does something equally immersive: He captures the real passion-some might say obsession-that tennis inspires. Because it''s on the court, no matter how grandiose or mundane, whether in an exotic locale or around the corner, where tennis players truly see themselves. Where we come face-to-face with our temperament, our drive, our frustration, our bliss, our longing."This book made me fall in love with tennis all over again."―Rennae Stubbs, former world No. 1 and six-time Grand Slam champion"How had I been so blind? I''d seen a tennis court as an arrangement of lines, neat boxes, a net. This book reveals so much more: spaces within spaces, quirks and surfaces, shadows and light, and the communities most of all. What a gift. I won''t look at the game the same way again."―Louisa Thomas, staff writer, The New Yorker"A pure pleasure to read and peruse."―Christopher Clarey, New York Times bestselling author"From Kent to Kenya, Marrakech to Melbourne. Indoors, outdoors. Seaside and underground. Pachelli captures the magic in this masterful book, which celebrates not just tennis, but this topspinning orb we call planet Earth."―Jon Wertheim, New York Times bestselling author and correspondent for 60 Minutes"I''ve been around tennis all over the world, and this book truly speaks to the beauty and importance of tennis courts, whether at tennis academies or remote public courts. Every tennis player and fan will enjoy this book."―Patrick Mouratoglou, world-renowned tennis coach and founder of Mouratoglou Academy"This book contains hundreds of beautifully photographed tennis courts. The real joy, though, is found in the stories that unfold about each one."―Katrina M. Adams, author and former president of the USTA"Detailing the remote and far-removed to the legendary courts that have hosted the most storied events in tennis history, this gorgeous book lends us a lens to encounter the world."―Caitlin Thompson, founder of Racquet magazine"Can''t travel right now? No worries; Nick Pachelli has got you covered. My recommendation: Open the book to a random page and start dreaming away. And who knows? One day you may find yourself exactly there. A truly dreamy book!"―Andrea Petkovic, former top-10 professional tennis player, host, and writer"A stunning celebration of tennis that speaks to the heart of anyone with a passion for a pastime."―Tom Coyne, New York Times bestselling author
