Greenovo „srdce temnoty“ z roku 1961 rozehrává věčná témata svatosti, povolání, lásky, víry a zoufalství s mistrovstvím, pro něž bývá právem nazýván Dostojevským dvacátého století. V autobiografické knize Úniky (Kalich 2006) Greene v souvislosti s Vyhaslým případem píše: „Představa víry jako poklidného moře byla navždy tatam – víra byla spíše jako bouře, ve které byli ti šťastní pohlceni a ztraceni, zatímco ti, co neměli štěstí, přežili a byli s ranami a krvácejícími šrámy vyvrženi na břeh. Lepší člověk si na okraji tohoto krutého moře mohl najít práci na celý život, ale mně můj vlastní průběh života neskýtal žádnou sebedůvěru, abych mohl nabízet nějakou pomoc. Neměl jsem žádné apoštolské poslání a volání po duchovní pomoci mě přivádělo k šílenství z vlastní neschopnosti. K čemu jinému byla církev než ku pomoci těmto trpícím?… Byl jsem jako člověk bez lékařských znalostí na vsi, kterou postihl mor. Myslím, že Querry se zrodil právě v těchto letech. Často sedával v mém křesle a měl nejednu tvář.“

Audiokniha: "Vím jen to, že ten, kdo si vytvoří nějaké pouto, je ztracen. Do jeho duše už vnikl zárodek zkázy." Joseph Conrad Rozhlasová dramatizace špionážního románu. Nahrávka z roku 1993 v režii Jana Bergera. V hlavních rolích: Jiří Adamíra a Hana Maciuchová Dále hrají: Jan Novotný, Vladimír Ráž, Luděk Munzar, Jiří Zahajský, Veronika Freimanová, Jiří Hromada a další. Graham Greene (1904-1991) byl významný britský romanopisec 20. století. Psal také povídky, eseje, divadelní hry, scénáře, literární a filmové kritiky. Nějaký čas pracoval jako novinář a po určitou dobu byl dokonce zaměstnancem ministerstva zahraničí a agentem britské tajné služby. Jeho příběhy kombinují epiku s morálními a náboženskými otázkami z neortodoxně katolické perspektivy. Témata jeho děl mají společného jmenovatele v hlubokém, věčně pochybujícím, především však v osvobozujícím básnickém pohledu na člověka z hlediska spisovatelova základního atributu lidství – svědomí. Proto je též označován jako Dostojevský 20. století.

Audiokniha: Děje se v Mexiku v první třetině 20. století, v době tvrdého pronásledování katolické církve. Kostely jsou zavřeny, biskupové a kněží vyhnáni nebo popraveni. Sloužení mše a udělování svátostí se stávají hrdelním zločinem. Před revoluční mocí prchá poslední kněz. Nejen geografické a historické souřadnice, ale i mnohé postavy tohoto románu mají reálný podklad. V roce 1938 odcestoval Greene do Mexika, aby zde nasbíral materiál pro knihu o pronásledování katolické církve. Za neuvěřitelných útrap procestoval několik mexických států; dva z nich, Tabasco a Chiapas, se pak stávají dějištěm románu Moc a sláva. Poslední kněz v zemi, prchající před revoluční mocí, má k obrazu mučedníka za církev hodně daleko: pije, hřeší snad proti všem přikázáním včetně šestého, bojí se smrti a bolesti. Jeho protihráč, představitel revoluční moci, je naopak silný, nepochybuje o sobě ani o své pravdě a za jejím prosazením jde doslova přes mrtvoly. Jejich "hra" na život a smrt udržuje napětí od první do poslední kapitoly.

The perfect pocketbook gift for the power-hungry - from 'the modern Machiavelli', Robert Greene, international bestselling sensation author of The 48 Laws of Power, Seduction and War. This concise version of the business classic Mastery provides a shortcut to Greene's powerful new tools for achieving greatness. Around the globe, people are facing the same problem - that we are born as individuals but are forced to conform to the rules of society if we want to succeed. To see our uniqueness expressed in our achievements, we must first learn the rules - and then change them completely.Charles Darwin began as an underachieving schoolboy, Leonardo da Vinci as an illegitimate outcast. The secret of their eventual greatness lies in a 'rigorous apprenticeship': they learnt to master the 'hidden codes' which determine ultimate success or failure. Then, they rewrote the rules as a reflection of their own individuality.Told through Robert Greene's signature blend of historical anecdote and psychological insight and drawing on interviews with world leaders, Concise Mastery builds on the strategies outlined in The 48 Laws of Power to provide a practical guide to greatness - and learn how to start living by your own rules.

Now in a revised and updated 6th edition, the groundbreaking, research-based approach to understanding and parenting children who frequently exhibit severe fits of temper and other challenging behaviors, from a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the field.What’s an explosive child? A child who responds to routine problems with extreme frustration—crying, screaming, swearing, kicking, hitting, biting, spitting, destroying property, and worse. A child whose frequent, severe outbursts leave his or her parents feeling frustrated, scared, worried, and desperate for help. Most of these parents have tried everything-reasoning, explaining, punishing, sticker charts, therapy, medication—but to no avail. They can’t figure out why their child acts the way he or she does; they wonder why the strategies that work for other kids don’t work for theirs; and they don’t know what to do instead.Dr. Ross Greene, a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids aren’t attention-seeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents aren’t passive, permissive pushovers. Rather, explosive kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem solving, and they require a different approach to parenting. Throughout this compassionate, insightful, and practical book, Dr. Greene provides a new conceptual framework for understanding their difficulties, based on research in the neurosciences. He explains why traditional parenting and treatment often don’t work with these children, and he describes what to do instead. Instead of relying on rewarding and punishing, Dr. Greene’s Collaborative Problem Solving model promotes working with explosive children to solve the problems that precipitate explosive episodes, and teaching these kids the skills they lack.

Evidence points to some royal weddings actually having a negative impact on inbound tourism.But the monarchy makes a big difference to charity..Of the approx. 1,200 charities with a royal patron, 74% had no contact with their patron during the preceding year.But everyone loves the monarchy..A January 2023 poll showed support for the monarchy is down 55 percent.It''s wrong in principle and it doesn''t work in practice. It doesn''t have to be this way.They say Britain should be proud to have the mother of parliaments, to be a shining beacon of democracy and an example to other nations. But there''s an elephant in the room.At the heart of power is a single family. They weren''t elected but they live off the public purse. They aren''t accountable to anyone, and yet between them they are privy to more government secrets than many cabinet ministers. Divinely appointed using a special hat, the head of the family is your superior, you his subject. Apparently he is guardian of our constitution - but we''re also told he wouldn''t dream of interfering in politics.If you accept the monarchy, you must accept the moral compromise that comes with it, from its erosion of the principle of equality to the secret interference in our laws.

The first book in the delicious, icy-hot Campus Diaries series, a spinoff of BookTok sensations Off Campus and Briar U, by New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy. Gigi Graham has exactly three goals: qualify for the women's national hockey team, win Olympic gold, and step out of her famous father's shadow. So far, so good, except for two little things. Fine–a little thing and a big, grumpy thing. She needs to improve her game behind the net, and she needs help from Luke Ryder. Ryder is six-foot five, built, opinionated, rude…and sexy as hell. But he's still the enemy. Briar's new hockey co-captain has his reasons, though. The men's team just merged with a rival program, leaving Ryder with an angry roster where everyone hates one another's guts. To make matters worse, the summer coaching spot he's angling for with the legendary Garrett Graham is out of reach after he makes the worst possible first impression on his hero. So, really, this compromise with Gigi is win-win. He helps her make the national team, she puts in a good word with her dad. The only potential snag? This bone-deep, body-numbing, mind-spinning chemistry they're trying to ignore. It's a dangerous game they're playing, but the risks just might be worth it.

'I suspect the real breakthroughs in our understanding of consciousness are going to come from an entirely different direction. That direction, controversially, has to do with psychedelics - which, as many of the contributors to The Divine Spark argue, offer spectacular potential for the investigation of the "hard problem" of consciousness.' - Graham Hancock, from the Introduction. In The Divine Spark, bestselling author Graham Hancock brings us a groundbreaking collection of the latest thinking on consciousness and psychedelics. Graham has been writing and speaking about this to audiences worldwide, including a controversial TedX talk on ayahuasca and DMT, which received well over a million views on YouTube. Combining the wisdom of leading minds, The Divine Spark illuminates the topic like never before, with a particular focus on the use of psychedelics to open up the realm of the supernatural.

Paul Baumer enlisted with his classmates in the German army of World War I. Youthful, enthusiastic, they become soldiers. But despite what they have learned, they break into pieces under the first bombardment in the trenches. And as horrible war plods on year after year, Paul holds fast to a single vow: to fight against the principles of hate that meaninglessly pits young men of the same generation but different uniforms against each other--if only he can come out of the war alive. "The world has a great writer in Erich Maria Remarque. He is a craftsman of unquestionably first trank, a man who can bend language to his will. Whether he writes of men or of inanimate nature, his touch is sensitive, firm, and sure." THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

In 1938, twenty-nine-year-old Nicholas Winton saved the lives of almost 700 children trapped in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia-a story he never told and that remained unknown until an unforgettable TV appearance in the 1980s reunited him with some of the children he saved. Czech-American artist, MacArthur Fellow and Andersen Award winner Peter Sis dramatises Winton's story in this distinctive and deeply personal picture book. He intertwines Nicky's efforts with the story of one of the children he saved-a young girl named Vera, whose family enlisted Nicky's aid when the Germans occupied their country. As the war passes and Vera grows up, she must find balance in her dual identities-one her birthright, the other her choice. Nicky & Vera is a masterful tribute to a humble man's courageous efforts to protect Europe's most vulnerable, and a timely portrayal of the hopes and fears of those forced to leave their homes and create new lives.
