''Remarkable'' OBSERVER‘Astounding’ ADAM FARRER''Brave and luminous'' SARAH LANGFORDThe Ghost Lake is a deeply personal, lyrical and stirring meditation on local history and changing landscapes that intertwines nature writing with an exploration of grief, belonging and the lives and legacies of rural working‐class people.I am setting out on a pilgrimage through an ancient landscape.I will begin at my daughter’s grave. Paleolake Flixton is an extinct lake in North Yorkshire. Human occupation of the site dates back thousands of years to prehistoric times. Over the millennia, the vast lake disappeared, turning to wetland and peaty fields. Today all that is left of it is a watermark.Wendy Pratt brings the reader on a pilgrimage around the ghost lake, to locations that have acted as journey markers in her own life. While traversing forests and fenland, she reflects on the process of finding belonging in nature as a woman who exists in a series of liminal spaces – as a working-class writer, an infertile woman in a fertile world and a bereaved mother in a society focused on children.An early draft of The Ghost Lake was longlisted for the 2021 Nan Shepherd Prize.‘In this lyric memoir, award-winning poet Pratt explores the landscape of the Yorkshire Moors, and the ancient lost lake of Flixton, weaving together nature writing with an exploration of grief, belonging and the lives of rural working-class people. THE BOOKSELLER‘There are some autobiographical writers who speak of utilising nature’s healing properties to overcome life challenges without fully acknowledging the role of luck in their trajectories. Not infrequently these writers become cultural spokespeople for or representatives of a demographic that they are actually no longer a part of, leaving those who are still grappling with their plights feeling as though it’s a personal failing that they can’t make their way out the same mires. This is a very different sort of book, a steadfastly honest one that views nature as a refuge rather than a cure. Many should find solace here. And others will simply gain pleasure from the descriptions of the archaeological finds unearthed from Yorkshire’s rich black peaty soils’GEOGRAPHICAL

Pokaždé, když Zax usne, probudí se do jiné reality na jiném světě. Nemůže si zvolit cíl a nikdy neví, co uvidí, když otevře oči. Někdy se probudí v technologické utopii, jindy ve vybombardovaných troskách zhroucené civilizace nebo uprostřed bitevní vřavy. Může se spoléhat jenom sám na sebe a drobné pomocníky, které cestou našel - futuristické vychytávky, sedativa, která mu umožňují rychle usnout a uprchnout z nebezpečných světů nebo stimulanty, jimiž si naopak prodlužuje pobyt na těch příjemných. Život se sice nedá příliš plánovat, ale naštěstí není Zax vždy sám. Může s sebou brát lidi, pokud je drží v náručí a společně usnou. A tak navštěvuje svět za světem, dokud nezjistí, že po něm jdou…

The first in a rich historical trilogy that draws on legend, by a literary craftsman and the author of The Sixteen Trees of the SommeNorway, 1880. Winter is hard in Butangen, a village secluded at the end of a valley. The lake has frozen, and for months the ground is too hard to bury the dead. Astrid Hekne dreams of a life beyond all this, beyond marriage, children, and working the land to the end of her days. Then Pastor Kai Schweigaard takes over the small parish, with its 700-year-old stave church carved with pagan deities. The two bells in the tower were forged by Astrid's forefather in the sixteenth century, in memory of conjoined twins Halfrid and Gunhild Hekne. They are said to hold supernatural powers.The villagers are wary of the pastor and his resolve to do away with their centuries-old traditions, though Astrid also finds herself drawn to him. And then a stranger arrives from Dresden, with grand plans for the church itself. For headstrong Astrid this may be a provocation too far.Talented architecture student Gerhard Schoenauer is an improbable figure in this rugged community. Astrid has never met anyone like him; he seems so different, so sensitive. She finds that she must make a choice: for her homeland and the pastor, or for an uncertain future in Germany.Then the bells begin to ring . . .

Bylo nebylo… jednou v Benátkách v dubnu 1921: Corto Maltese ve snaze rozluštit hádanku, kterou mu v dopise zaslal jeho přítel spisovatel Frederick Rolfe, známý pod pseudonymem Baron Corvo, zde pátrá po záhadném talismanu, vzácném smaragdu s magickým nápisem, přičemž se propadne střechou na tajnou schůzi zednářské Velké lóže, zaplete se do šarvátky se skupinkou bojovných fašistů, je obviněn z vraždy, potkává slavného básníka Gabriela D'Annunzia, novoplatónskou filozofku Hypatii a rabína Melchisedecha. Sugestivní atmosféra nočních Benátek s jejich impozantními paláci, tajemnými zastrčenými dvorky, všudypřítomnými kočkami, kamennými lvy, a dokonce i Aladinovou lampou dodává Cortovu dobrodružství snový opar báje, ve které však maltský námořník neztrácí svůj pověstný suchý humor ani všudypřítomnou ironii.

eBook: Pokaždé, když Zax usne, probudí se do jiné reality na jiném světě. Nemůže si zvolit cíl a nikdy neví, co uvidí, když otevře oči. Někdy se probudí v technologické utopii, jindy ve vybombardovaných troskách zhroucené civilizace nebo uprostřed bitevní vřavy. Může se spoléhat jenom sám na sebe a drobné pomocníky, které cestou našel – futuristické vychytávky, sedativa, která mu umožňují rychle usnout a uprchnout z nebezpečných světů nebo stimulanty, jimiž si naopak prodlužuje pobyt na těch příjemných. Život se sice nedá příliš plánovat, ale naštěstí není Zax vždy sám. Může s sebou brát lidi, pokud je drží v náručí a společně usnou. A tak navštěvuje svět za světem, dokud nezjistí, že po něm jdou…

Vychutnejte si jedinečný zážitek ve 3D v pohodlí domova s filmem Ghost in the Shell. 3D verze filmu Ghost in the Shell neobsahuje český dabing. Major (Scarlett Johansson) je velitelkou Sekce 9, speciální policejní jednotky, která bojuje proti těm nejhorším kyberzločinům. Koneckonců i hrdinka filmu je hi-tech produktem, dokonale vyváženou kombinací robota a člověka. S lidským mozkem a vyspělou robotickou schránkou se Major snaží dopadnout zločince, jehož cílem je zničení společnosti Hanka Robotics, lídra ve vývoji umělé inteligence. Major se však nepotýká pouze se zlem, ale také s vlastními pochybnostmi, když ji začíná zrazovat jediná nedokonalá část jejího jinak dokonalého těla – mozek. Čím dál častěji se jí v hlavě vynořují nesrozumitelné vjemy, které se zpočátku snaží potlačovat, ale posléze podněcují její zvědavost a přirozenou touhu přicházet záhadám na kloub. Tyto vjemy by mohly být otisky její předchozí existence, mohly by být klíčem ke vzpomínkám na její lidské Já, mohly by být klíčem k otevření její osobní Pandořiny skříňky, po němž se už na svět nebude dívat stejnýma očima. Protože všechno je jinak.
