Mají-li lidé vše, co si přejí, záleží na tom, aby měli ještě víc?Na měsíci jménem Panga kdysi dávno lidé pro svůj blahobyt využívali práce robotů. Jednoho dne se však stalo něco nečekaného — roboti nabyli vědomí a rozhodli se uchýlit do divočiny, daleko od lidských továren, aby poznali svět v celé jeho lidmi neposkvrněné kráse. Po dlouhých staletích odloučení, kdy už z robotů ve světě lidí nezbylo víc než legendy, však nastal čas. Čas dozvědět se, jak se lidem daří. A co potřebují.Mezitím se lidé naučili poradit si sami. Věnují se farmaření, řemeslům nebo práci v klášterních řádech. Jako například Echo. Stará se o klášterní zahrady, ale cítí, že život ve městě není to pravé. Proto se rozhodne cestovat po venkově a provádět čajové obřady. Nespokojený vnitřní hlas však stále neutichá, a tak zbývá jediné — vydat se k hranicím, kde začíná divočina. Právě tam, kam míří i první robotí vyslanec do světa lidí. Dokáže vypátrat, co lidé potřebují, když se zdá, že to nevědí ani oni sami?

Poslední lidé opustili Zemi už před stovkami let. Po vleklém putování prázdnotou byli (většinou) přijati mezi druhy, které se podílejí na správě a chodu galaxie, a po generace trvající cesta flotily Exodus skončila. To je ovšem dávná historie. Dnes je flotila Exodus živoucím pomníkem, místem, odkud mnozí lidé pocházejí, ale málokdo z nich ho na vlastní oči viděl. Exodané se rádi pyšní svou komunitou a tradicemi - ty však nejsou tak jedinečné, jak si myslí. Mnoho Exodanů odchází do cizích měst nebo kolonií a ti, kteří zůstávají, musejí uvažovat o svém současném i budoucím směřování. Jaký je účel lodi, která již dosáhla svého cíle? Proč zůstávat ve vesmíru, když existují jiné obyvatelné světy? Jaká je cena za udržování pečlivě vyváženého způsobu života - a má smysl v něm pokračovat?

Vesmír se může zdát nekonečný, ale vesmírné lodě jsou tísnivě malé. Když se Rosemary Harperová připojí k posádce Poutníka, nečeká toho moc. Touží jen po malém, klidném místě, které by mohla na chvíli nazývat domovem, po dobrodružství v dalekých koutech galaxie a odstupu od problematické minulosti. A Poutník jí přesně takové místo nabízí. Život na palubě je chaotický, ale víceméně mírumilovný. Až do doby, kdy je posádce nabídnuta životní příležitost: postavit hyperprostorový tunel na vzdálenou planetu a vydělat si tak dost peněz, aby mohli pohodlně žít mnoho let. Pokud tedy přežijí dlouhou cestu přes válkou zmítaný mezihvězdný prostor, aniž by došlo k ohrožení některého z křehkých spojenectví, jež udržují galaxii v klidu. Potíž je v tom, že Rosemary není na palubě jediná, kdo má nějaké tajemství…

Kniha - autor Antonín Zita, 202 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Kniha se zabývá srovnáním recepce autorů Beat Generation v USA a v Česku, a to ve dvou časových obdobích - v 50. a 60. letech 20. století a poté od 90. let až do současnosti. Zatímco samotné publikace Beat Generation autorů zůstaly nezměněné, kontexty těchto publikací byly zásadně odlišné: v USA byla díla autorů Beat Generation často redukována senzacechtivými kritiky na nevyzrálé vychvalování drog, sexu i násilí, v Československu naopak tito autoři získali přízeň čtenářů díky neobvyklosti svého literárního jazyka, kterou jejich próza a poezie představovaly na literárním trhu značně pokřiveném tezemi socialistického realismu. Tato studie tedy dokládá, jak mohou odlišné kontexty ovlivnit přístup čtenářů k literárnímu textu a jejich autorům, což ve výsledku pomáhá přeměnit daný text na odlišné umělecké dílo.

Depicting the gradual disintegration of the Compson family through four fractured narratives, The Sound and the Fury explores intense, passionate family relationships where there is no love, only self-centredness. At its heart this is a novel about lovelessness - 'only an idiot has no grief; only a fool would forget it. What else is there in this world sharp enough to stick to your guts?'Born in 1897 in New Albany, Mississippi, William Faulkner was the son of a family proud of their prominent role in the history of the south.

Anne Boleyn is dead, decapitated in the space of a heartbeat by a hired French executioner. As her remains are bundled into oblivion, Thomas Cromwell breakfasts with the victors.

She traces the final years of Thomas Cromwell, the boy from nowhere who climbs to the heights of power, offering a defining portrait of predator and prey, of a ferocious contest between present and past, between royal will and a common man’s vision: of a modern nation making itself through conflict, passion and courage.A Guardian Book of the Year • A Times Book of the Year • A Daily Telegraph Book of the Year • A Sunday Times Book of the Year • A New Statesman Book of the Year • A Spectator Book of the Year Sunday Times Bestseller (08/03/2020)

The phenomenal #1 Chinese bestseller, with over 3 million copies sold. This is a searing exploration of what makes a hero: a literary masterpiece, available in the English language for the very first time.The boy grows up in a small village in south China listening to stories about the Colonel: some say he was a legendary army doctor during the war, some say he was a traitor to the Party, still others say he is a wicked sex machine. The stories are bawdy and mesmerizing, always larger than life.Yet in reality, the Colonel is just a middle-aged man who loves his cat. And why on earth does everyone call him 'the Eunuch'?From these disparate sources, the boy tries to piece together who the Colonel really is, just as he himself grows up in a rapidly changing China. It is not until many years later, when the boy also becomes a middle-aged man, that he would look back and finally solve the puzzle.The Colonel and the Eunuch is Mai Jia's first new novel in eight years and his most ambitious work to date. An exciting departure from spy thrillers, this is a coming-of-age story, a family saga, as well as a searing exploration of what makes a hero. The Colonel is Mai Jia's singular creation: an almost mythic figure shrouded in the tragedy of war and history, whose story will move even the most stone-hearted to tears.

A complex, intense American novel of family from the winner of the Nobel Prize for LiteratureWith an introduction by Richard HughesEver since the first furore was created on its publication in 1929, The Sound and the Fury has been considered one of the key novels of this century. Depicting the gradual disintegration of the Compson family through four fractured narratives, the novel explores intense, passionate family relationships where there is no love, only self-centredness. At its heart, this is a novel about lovelessness - 'only an idiot has no grief; only a fool would forget it.What else is there in this world sharp enough to stick to your guts?'

Kniha - autor Petr Jedlička; Jitka Paitlová, 278 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Objectivity is an essential concept with a convoluted history in both philosophy and science. Th is book presents a theoretical analysis and contemporary revision of the concept with the help of experimental philosophy. In recent years, experimental philosophy has substantially enriched philosophy by adopting methods from sociology, psychology and cognitive sciences, which have been successfully applied in many of its subfi elds, such as conceptual analysis or ethical decision-making. In this volume, these investigations are extended even further into areas concerning various aspects of objectivity, among them heuristics and biases, reproducibility, and the understanding of the nature of reality among scientists. However, it also defi nes some inherent limits to the implementation of the new methodology in philosophy.

“What if I told you that the feeling we call love is actually the feeling of metaphysical recognition, when your soul remembers someone from a previous life?” In the year 4 BCE, an ambitious courtier is called upon to seduce the young emperor—but quickly discovers they are both ruled by blood, sex and intrigue. In 1740, a lonely innkeeper agrees to help a mysterious visitor procure a rare medicine, only to unleash an otherworldly terror instead. And in present-day Los Angeles, a college student meets a beautiful stranger and cannot shake the feeling they’ve met before. Across these seemingly unrelated timelines woven together only by the twists and turns of fate, two men are reborn, lifetime after lifetime. Within the treacherous walls of an ancient palace and the boundless forests of the Asian wilderness to the heart-pounding cement floors of underground rave scenes, our lovers are inexplicably drawn to each other, constantly tested by the worlds around them. As their many lives intertwine, they begin to realize the power of their undying love—a power that transcends time itself…but one that might consume them both.

The remarkable true story of Saint Maximilian Kolbe, and the two men in war-torn Japan whose lives he changed forever.
