Je jím Fantázie a Bastián se do ní dostane skrze stránky neméně zvláštní knížky. Spolu s chlapcem Átrejem – synem všech – prožije na Veliké Cestě Hledání četná dobrodružství. Nejednou se ocitne v nebezpečí, stane se z něj hrdina a zmoudří. Nakonec se vrátí tam, kde je jeho místo – mezi lidi. Nekonečný příběh byl několikrát zfilmován.

Chystá sa kráľovská svadba! Kráľ zvierat Lev XXVIII. sa bude ženiť a na svadbu sú pozvané všetky zvieratá. Prečo by teda nešla aj korytnačka Karla? A tak sa rozhodne vydať na dlhú cestu, aj keď ju ostatné zvieratá presviedčajú, že to nemôže stihnúť. Karla je pevne odhodlaná a odmieta sa vzdať.

Audiokniha: Když nesmělý Bastián Balthazar Bux jednoho dne prchá před spolužáky, kteří ho šikanují, rozhodne se před nimi schovat v antikvaritátu. V bezpečí za dveřmi krámku jej zaujme kniha s motivem dvou hadů, kteří jsou vzájemně zakousnuti do svých ocasů a názvem Nekonečný příběh. Chlapec nedokáže odolat, a když je majitel knihkupectví zabrán do telefonického hovoru, svazek ukradne a uchýlí se s ním do skrýše na půdě školy. Na jeho stránkách se dozvídá o říši Fantázie, která pomalu upadá do Nicoty. Zatímco čte o záchranné misi bojovníka Átreje, uvědomuje si, že se celé vyprávění týká i jeho. I on se bude muset aktivně zapojit, aby říše, která ho okouzlila, a její vládkyně dětská císařovna mohly být zachráněny. Dokáže se ale vyrovnat s následky svých činů v realitě, kterou stvořil pomocí svých přání, a bude umět čelit své temné stránce? Jen tak se totiž bude moci vrátit se zpět do světa, kam patří… „Skok do magického světa… Rázný, nápaditý a chytrý.“ – Washington Post „Výbuch představivosti.“ – Sunday Times „Endeho fantazie je famózní a okouzlující…“ – vaseliteratura.cz Michael Ende (1929–1995) V nadějné atmosféře poválečného Německa, kdy zažívalo nesmírný rozmach divadlo, vystudoval Michael Ende hereckou školu, ale více než hraní se věnoval psaní divadelních her. Od těch byl pak už jen krůček k delším textům, ve kterých rozehrával surrealistické vidění světa, kombinoval realitu s fantazií a díky nimž se proslavil. Jeho první rukopis odmítlo deset nakladatelů, než v roce 1960 vyšel pod názvem Jim Knoflík, Lukáš a lokomotiva Ema. Za knihu Děvčátko Momo a ukradený čas (1973) získal evropskou cenu za dětskou literaturu, ale největší úspěch mu bezesporu přinesl Nekonečný příběh (1979). Ten byl v roce 1985 zfilmován (následovala i několikerá pokračování), ale autor se od tohoto zpracování distancoval. Jan Vlasák (*1943) Narodil se v Čáslavi, vystudoval brněnskou JAMU a následně se stal členem souboru divadla v Uherském Hradišti. Prošel mnoha scénami (Divadlo Petra Bezruče, Státní divadlo, Divadlo E. F. Buriana, Státní divadlo v Brně, Realistické divadlo, Rokoko i Národní divadlo), v současné době je členem souboru Městských divadel pražských. Účinkoval v řadě televizních inscenací a seriálů (Tři králové, PF 77, Hodina tance a lásky, Ordinace v růžové zahradě, Cesty domů, Cukrárna, Cirkus Bukowsky, První republika, Svět pod hlavou) a filmů (Výchova dívek v Čechách, Milenci a vrazi, Vratné lahve, Bathory).

Které dítě by se někdy nebálo jít spát a nemělo strach z příšer, které číhají ve snech? Je tomu tak i s malou princeznou Dřímalkou v příběhu "O Snožroutkovi" od Michaela Endeho. Dřímalku, dcerušku krále Ospálkova, trápí zlé sny, a proto večer nechce do postele. Když už si s tím neví rady ani největší mudrci z celé země, začne sám pan král pátrat po celém světě po nějakém léku, který by princezničce pomohl. Nakonec najde Snožroutka, který všechny zlé sny jednoduše zbaští.

Audiokniha: Jsou věci, které potřebují čas… A nesmírně. Tik tak, je to tak. Ještě že v jednom kamenném italském divadle žije Momo, holčička s nádhernýma očima a se srdcem na dlani, která umí druhým báječně naslouchat. To každý nedovede. Někdo spíš popřává sluchu úlisným šedým pánům velícím vše uspěchat a vůbec se pořád někam štvát, aby se ušetřené vteřiny, minuty, hodiny a dny daly v budoucnu investovat. A do čeho? Kdoví, co mají ti lumpové za lubem – jenže Momo jim zkříží plány. Pomůžou jí želva Kasiopeja a Mistr Hóra z domu Nikdenení v ulici Nikdynebyla? Symbolická pohádka vypráví o uhrančivé dětské nevinnosti a smyslu času, který je lidem vyměřen. O jeho veličinu se sice v žánru fantasy svádějí bitvy už od chvíle, kdy z něj Einstein učinil středobod vesmíru, ale dosud ho v beletrii nikdo neuctil vroucněji než děvčátko stvořené v představivosti Michaela Endeho. Tik tak, ne jinak. Jen poslouchejte… „Úchvatné podobenství vyladěné jak švýcarské hodinky. Člověk jen zírá, jak je to prosté, a zároveň se mu chce plakat dojetím.“ – Süddeutsche Zeitung „Uběhlo už čtyřicet let, ale přehlédnout se to nedá. Prorocká alegorie o tom, jak moderní technologie dělají přesný opak toho, co hlásají. Místo aby nás obohatily o čas, který můžeme radostně strávit spolu, ve skutečnosti nám ho kradou.“ The Atlantic „Pět hvězdiček. Překrásný, hluboký příběh.

Špunt je malý chlapec, který neví, co je strach. Potulný život loutkáře ho nebaví a nudí. Od rodičů stále slyší, co musí a nesmí, že něco nejde a že se něco nedělá. Sní o dobrodružném životě plném nebezpečí. A tu se jednoho dne dozví, že nedaleko něj žije rytíř Rodrigo Raubíř, kterého se bojí celé široké daleké okolí a příkopy jeho hradu lemují ohlodané vybělené kosti. Malý Špunt se rozhodne okamžitě: uteče z domova a vstoupí do Rodrigových služeb. Kniha o odvaze a strachu a o tom, že ne vždy jsou věci takové, jaké se na první pohled mají zdát, je určena především čtenářům od 7 do 10 let. Michael Ende je známý německý autor fantastické a dětské literatury (Nekonečný příběh, Děvčátko Momo a ukradený čas, Jim Knoflík, Lukáš a lokomotiva Ema).

Zatoužil totiž po kariéře panoše Rodriga Raubíře ‒ nejhrůznějšího z loupeživých rytířů, jenž sídlí ve zdejších končinách ‒ a vydal se ho vyhledat do jeho hradu. Aby však mohl rytíři sloužit, musí nejprve zcela sám, bez pomoci vykonat co nejtěžší zločin! Stačil by třeba únos následnice trůnu spojený s vymáháním výkupného? Jenže Rodrigo Raubíř není docela takový, jako ve zvěstech, které se o něm povídají, a princeznu Filipu Anagundu Rózu tahle situace zřejmě docela baví. Do věci se ale zapojí ještě mocichtivý kouzelník, moudrý papoušek, trudnomyslný král, nespokojený drak a samozřejmě nešťastní rodiče Baculíkovi, kteří zoufale hledají své ztracené dítě...

'It's a foreboding,' she said. 'A knowing that something is looming around the corner. Like how when the seasons change you can smell Fall in the air right before the leaves change and the wind turns cold.' In January 2020, as people started dying from a new virus in Wuhan, China, few really understood the magnitude of what was happening. Except, that is, a small group of scientific misfits who in their different ways had been obsessed all their lives with how viruses spread and replicated - and with why the governments and the institutions that were supposed to look after us, kept making the same mistakes time and again. This group saw what nobody else did. A pandemic was coming. We weren't prepared. The Premonition is the extraordinary story of a group who anticipated, traced and hunted the coronavirus; who understood the need to think differently, to learn from history, to question everything; and to do all of this fast, in order to act, to save lives, communities, society itself. It's a story about the workings of the human mind; about the failures and triumphs of human judgement and imagination. It's the story of how we got to now.

Kniha - autor Marjane Satrapi, 344 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Wise, often funny, sometimes heartbreaking, "Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood" tells the story of Marjane Satrapi's life in Tehran from the ages of six to fourteen, years that saw the overthrow of the Shah's regime, the triumph of the Islamic Revolution and the devastating effects of war with Iraq. The intelligent and outspoken child of radical Marxists, and the great-grandaughter of Iran's last emperor, Satrapi bears witness to a childhood uniquely entwined with the history of her country. Persepolis paints an unforgettable portrait of daily life in Iran and of the bewildering contradictions between home life and public life. Amidst the tragedy, Marjane's child's eye view adds immediacy and humour, and her story of a childhood at once outrageous and ordinary, beset by the unthinkable and yet buffered by an extraordinary and loving family, is immensely moving.

The Story of the Lost Child is the concluding volume in the dazzling saga of two women- the brilliant, bookish Elena, and the fiery, uncontainable Lila. Both are now adults, with husbands, lovers, aging parents, and children. Their friendship has been the gravitational center of their lives. Both women fought to escape the neighborhood in which they grew up-a prison of conformity, violence, and inviolable taboos. Elena married, moved to Florence, started a family, and published several well-received books. In this final novel she has returned to Naples, drawn back as if responding to the city's obscure magnetism. Lila, on the other hand, could never free herself from the city of her birth. She has become a successful entrepreneur, but her success draws her into closer proximity with the nepotism, chauvinism, and criminal violence that infect the neighborhood. Proximity to the world she has always rejected only brings her role as its unacknowledged leader into relief. For Lila is unstoppable, unmanageable, unforgettable.The four volumes in this series constitute a long remarkable story that readers will return to again and again, and each return will bring with it new revelations.

Mysteriously summoned to a houseboat on the Morava River, a few friends, associates, and collaborators of an old writer listen as he tells a story that will last until dawn: the tale of the once well-known writer's recent odyssey across Europe. As his story unfolds, it visits places that represent stages of the narrator's and the continent's past, many now lost or irrecoverably changed through war, death, and the subtler erosions of time. His wanderings take him from the Balkans to Spain, Germany, and Austria, from a congress of experts on noise sickness to a clandestine international gathering of jew's-harp virtuosos. His story and its telling are haunted by a beautiful stranger, a woman who has a preternatural hold over the writer and appears sometimes as a demon, sometimes as the longed-for destination of his travels.Powerfully alive, honest, and at times deliciously satirical, The Moravian Night explores the mind and memory of an aging writer, tracking the anxieties, angers, fears, and pleasures of a life inseparable from the recent history of Central Europe. In crystalline prose, Peter Handke traces and interrogates his own thoughts and perceptions while endowing the world with a mythic dimension.

Drawing is at the heart of human creativity. The most democratic form of art-making, it requires nothing more than a plain surface and a stub of pencil, a piece of chalk or an inky brush. Our prehistoric ancestors drew with natural pigments on the walls of caves, and every subsequent culture has practised drawing—whether on papyrus, parchment, or paper. Artists throughout history have used drawing as part of the creative process. While painting and sculpture have been shaped heavily by money and influence, drawing has always offered extraordinary creative latitude. Here we see the artist at his or her most unguarded. Susan Owens offers a glimpse over artists’ shoulders—from Michelangelo, Rembrandt, and Hokusai to Van Gogh, Käthe Kollwitz, and Yayoi Kusama—as they work, think, and innovate, as they scrutinise the world around them or escape into imagination. The Story of Drawing loops around the established history of art, sometimes staying close, at other times diving into exhilarating and altogether less familiar territory.
