Noe - Sebastian Fitzek

Muž s amnéziou čelí globálnej hrozbe Nevie, ako sa volá. Netuší, odkiaľ pochádza. Nedokáže si spomenúť, ako sa ocitol v Berlíne a prečo žije ako bezdomovec v slepom tuneli metra desať metrov pod zemou. Nevie, prečo má na pleci čerstvú ranu po guľke. Vie len to, že ho niekto chcel zabiť a určite sa o to pokúsi znova. Kumpáni z ulice ho volajú Noe, pretože toto meno má vytetované na dlani pravej ruky. Kam má ísť? S kým sa môže o tom porozprávať? Uteká pred niečím, alebo ho prenasledujú zlé sily, ako sa mu snaží nahovoriť jeho kamarát zo skrýše Oscar? Hrozí mu nebezpečenstvo, ak pôjde do nemocnice alebo sa obráti na políciu? Imaginárna hrozba je možno len jednou z mnohých konšpiratívnych teórií víriacich v hlave pomäteného Oscara, o ktorom vie Noe práve tak málo ako o sebe. Pátranie po vlastnej identite sa mení pre Noema na nočnú moru.

Nezabil ich. Prežili niečo omnoho strašnejšie...Zlodej duší sa však znovu prihlási o slovo. Vyberie si luxusnú psychiatrickú kliniku. Lekári a pacienti sú zdesení, pretože zloduch sa nepozorovane dostal do budovy krátko predtým, ako snehová víchrica odrezala kliniku od okolitého sveta. Vystrašení obyvatelia kliniky sa zúfalo snažia navzájom chrániť - až kým v noci hrôzy, ktorá sa nezadržateľne blíži, nepochopia, že pred Zlodejom duší niet úniku. Sebastian Fitzek namixoval svoj triler z odstrašujúcich správ a z charakteristiky muža, ktorý psychicky zlomí každého, keďže nemá vlastnú pamäť. Rafinovaný psychotriler upúta svojskou zvláštnosťou, záznamy zo starých zdravotných kariet pacientov sa striedajú s postrehmi mladých adeptov medicíny. Čitateľ je chtiac-nechtiac vtiahnutý do deja, stojí po boku protagonistov, cíti ich dych, vníma ich strach a po chrbte mu behajú zimomriavky.

Zberateľ očí - Sebastian Fitzek

Ak ma nenájdeš, zomriem.Zberateľ očí hrá najstaršiu hru na svete: na schovávačku. S vašimi deťmi. Dá vám 45 hodín, aby ste ich našli. Ale hľadanie trvá večnosť. A páchateľ medzitým koná... Zberateľ očí udrel už trikrát, keď na scénu vstupuje bývalý policajný mediátor Alexander Zorbach. V súčasnosti je policajným reportérom berlínskeho denníka, preto sa vydáva po stopách viacnásobného páchateľa, ktorého novinári nazývajú Zberateľ očí. V minulosti sám pracoval ako policajt, má teda bohaté skúsenosti a užitočné kontakty. Navyše je vždy o krok pred políciou, a pravdepodobne aj preto sa stane hlavným podozrivým. Páchateľ zatiaľ nezanechal nijakú užitočnú stopu. Odrazu sa však nečakane objaví tajomná svedkyňa, slepá fyzioterapeutka Alina Gregorievová, a tvrdí, že dokáže nazrieť do minulosti svojich pacientov, stačí jej len dotknúť sa tela. A deň predtým možno ošetrovala Zberateľa očí... Fitzek dá postupne slovo aj ďalším protagonistom, policajtovi Philippovi Stoyovi a redakčnému asistentovi Frankovi Lahmannovi, pričom ich rozprávanie strieda s pocitmi a myšlienkami uneseného chlapca Tobiasa Traunsteina. Dej sa sústreďuje na pátranie po ešte žijúcej obeti – v tomto prípade po súrodencoch Traunsteinovcoch. Autor verný mottu knihy preniesol preteky s časom aj do grafickej podoby románu.

Lekár aj sestrička zhodne tvrdia, že tam nikdy nevstúpila. Odvtedy nikto nevie, kde sa dievča zdržiava a čo sa s ňou stalo. O štyri roky neskôr sa utrápený otec utiahne do osamoteného víkendového domu na ostrove Parkum. Tam ho vyhľadá záhadná mladá žena, ktorá sa predstaví ako spisovateľka a sťažuje sa, že ju sužujú bludné predstavy. Neustále sa jej zjavuje malé dievčatko, ktoré zmizlo bez stopy, podobne ako psychiatrova dcéra. Neznáma sa odvoláva na odporúčanie Viktorovho kolegu a požiada ho, aby ju liečil. Viktor spočiatku váha, lebo pod vplyvom traumatizujúcej udalosti zanechal svoju medicínsku prax, no napokon začne s terapiou, ktorá sa mení na čoraz dramatickejší výsluch… Cez chaotické výpovede schizofreničky sa Fitzekovi podarilo zotrieť hranice medzi predstavou a realitou a po istom čase poslucháč už nie je schopný určiť, čo sa skutočne udialo a čo je len chorým výplodom Anny Spiegelovej.

The Gift – Expanded Edition - Marcel Mauss

Scan down a list of essential works in any introduction to anthropology course and you are likely to see to see Marcel Mauss's masterpiece, Essay on the Gift. With this new translation, this crucial essay is returned to its original context, published alongside the profound works that framed its first publication in the 1923-24 issue of L'Annee Sociologique. With a critical foreword by Maurice Godelier, this is certain to become the standard English version of this important anthropological work. Included alongside the "Essay on the Gift" are Mauss's memorial accounts of the work of colleagues lost during World War I, as well as his scholarly reviews of influential contemporaries such as Franz Boas, James George Frazer, Bronislaw Malinowski, Alfred Radcliffe-Brown, and others. Read in the context of these additional pieces, the "Essay on the Gift" is revealed as a complementary whole, a gesture of both personal and political generosity: his honor for his fallen colleagues; his aspiration for modern society's recuperation of the gift as a mode of repair; and his own careful, yet critical, reading of his intellectual milieu. The result sets the scene for a whole new generation of readers to study this essay alongside pieces that exhibit ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Profit and Gift in the Digital Economy - Dave Elder-Vass

Our economy is neither overwhelmingly capitalist, as Marxist political economists argue, nor overwhelmingly a market economy, as mainstream economists assume. Both approaches ignore vast swathes of the economy, including the gift, collaborative and hybrid forms that coexist with more conventional capitalism in the new digital economy. Drawing on economic sociology, anthropology of the gift and heterodox economics, this book proposes a groundbreaking framework for analysing diverse economic systems: a political economy of practices. The framework is used to analyse Apple, Wikipedia, Google, YouTube and Facebook, showing how different complexes of appropriative practices bring about radically different economic outcomes. Innovative and topical, Profit and Gift in the Digital Economy focusses on an area of rapid social change while developing a theoretically and politically radical framework that will be of continuing long-term relevance. It will appeal to students, activists and academics in the social sciences.

The Gift of Death, Second Edition & Literature in Secret - Jacques Derrida

The Gift of Death, Jacques Derrida’s most sustained consideration of religion, explores questions first introduced in his book Given Time about the limits of the rational and responsible that one reaches in granting or accepting death, whether by sacrifice, murder, execution, or suicide. Derrida analyzes Czech philosopher Jan Patocka’s Heretical Essays in the Philosophy of History and develops and compares his ideas to the works of Heidegger, Lévinas, and Kierkegaard. One of Derrida’s major works, The Gift of Death resonates with much of his earlier writing, and this highly anticipated second edition is greatly enhanced by David Wills’s updated translation. This new edition also features the first-ever English translation of Derrida’s Literature in Secret. In it, Derrida continues his discussion of the sacrifice of Isaac, which leads to bracing meditations on secrecy, forgiveness, literature, and democracy. He also offers a reading of Kafka’s Letter to His Father and uses the story of the flood in Genesis as an embarkation point for a consideration of divine sovereignty. “An important contribution to the critical study of ethics that commends itself to philosophers, social scientists, scholars of religion . . . [and those] made curious by the controversy that so often attends Derrida.”—Booklist, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Gift of Thought - Niki Dean

What if our experience of life is created differently to the way we think it’s created? Instead of living in an out-in world – with our thoughts and emotions coming from other people and situations, as well as from the past and the future – what if we actually live in a world of our own creation?We aren’t at the mercy of the world around us, we are in fact, using our gift of thought to create our experience of life in real-time, with surround sound and special effects. Just like in the movies!The Gift of Thought is the first in a series of books that provides a simple, illustrated explanation of the Three Principles (of Mind, Consciousness and Thought). It describes how we use Thought to create our rich and diverse experience of life (with all its highs and the lows), and it explores how thought comes and goes like the weather. Contrary to popular belief, thought isn’t something that needs to be managed or controlled, suppressed or ignored. It isn’t something that needs to be taken seriously at all.In the end, seeing through the illusion of Thought can have a profound impact on anyone’s experience of life!

The Gift of Thorns - A. J. Swoboda

Today''s follower of Jesus exists at a moment in history when our desires, longings, and wants are being weaponized against us by cultural, spiritual, and relational forces. "Follow your heart" and "You do you" has become our moment''s mantras. The result, for too many, is feeling torn asunder by the raging desires within. What do we do with our desire? What about our unwanted desires? And how do we cultivate desires which bring life and freedom and lead to Christ? The Gift of Thorns, by A. J. Swoboda, addresses these questions and more.The path forward is anything but easy. It is assumed by too many in the Christian community that desire is in and of itself bad or dangerous and must be crucified for simply existing. Desire is demonic for some. But, for many others--particularly in the secular West--desire must be followed through and through. This side deifies desire. But these two options sidestep the joy in the great challenge of finding God in our desire. There exists an ancient and sacred way that is forged around the life, wisdom, and power of Jesus and his Spirit. In short, what makes a follower of Christ is not whether or not ...

The Gift of Years - Sister Joan, OSB Chittister

The world glorifies youth and degrades old age. The Gift of Years flies in the face of this conventional wisdom. It is a wonderful celebration of the blessings of growing older, clear-eyed and unsentimental about the reality of the ageing process but showing us that our later years are gift, not burden. It is time for us, Joan Chittister says, to let go of both our fantasies of eternal youth and our fears of getting older.

The Gift of Not Belonging - Rami Kaminski

The first book to explore the distinct personality style of the otrovert — someone who lacks the communal impulse and does not fit in with any social group, regardless of its members — and to reveal all the advantages of being an otrovert and how otroverts contribute to the world. If you were the kid who never wanted to go to summer camp, if you prefer spending time with friends one- on-one than going to parties, if you would rather forgo your vacation than travel with a tour group, and if you often engage in acts of silent rebellion against group norms and traditions, you are very likely an otrovert. Dr Kaminski has been studying this personality style for over 30 years. He explains that, while otroverts enjoy deep and fulfilling one-on-one relationships, within groups they feel alienated, uncomfortable, and alone. Unlike introverts, who crave solitude and are easily drained by social interactions, otroverts can be quite gregarious and rarely tire from one-on-one socialising. And unlike loners, or people who have been marginalised based on their identity, otroverts are socially embraced and often popular — yet are unable to conform with what the group collectively thinks or cares about.

The Gift Book 1: Eleanor - RA Williams

The North Atlantic, 14 April 1912. Amid the chaos of the sinking Titanic, a young Eleanor Annenberg meets the eyes of a stranger and is immediately captivated. As the ship buckles around them, she follows him down into the hold and finds him leaning over an open sarcophagus, surrounded by mutilated bodies. She catches but a glimpse of what lies within before she''s sucked into a maelstrom of freezing brine and half-devoured corpses. Elle is pulled out of the water, but the stranger - and the secrets she stumbled upon - are lost. Unintentionally, however, he leaves her a gift; one so compelling that Elle embarks on a journey that pulls her into a world of ancient evils, vicious hunters and human prey to find the man who saved her that fateful night. From trench warfare at Cape Helles in 1915 to a shipwreck in the tropical shallows off the Honduran coast, from a lost mine beneath the towering Externsteine in a Germany on the verge of war to the gothic crypts of Highgate Cemetery in London, Elle gets closer to a truth she has sought for most of her life.

The darkest disasters in both Mother Nature and human nature have occurred since the dawn of time, and now it seems that the "natural disaster of the century" occurs almost every year.
