Morové noci - Orhan Pamuk
Píše se rok 1901 a k ostrovu Minger - perle východního Středomoří ležící kdesi mezi Krétou a Kyprem - se pod rouškou tmy blíží neohlášená loď. Na palubě vedle princezny Pakize, dcery sesazeného osmanského sultána, a jejího manžela doktora Nuriho cestuje také hlavní hygienik Bonkowski. Každý z nich má zvláštní poslání, ale ne všichni ho budou moci naplnit. Nad zdánlivě idylickým krajem, který s oblibou zobrazují romantičtí umělci, se stahují temná mračna. Šíří se zvěsti o moru - zvěsti, jež je třeba v zájmu udržení moci ututlat. Jenže morová nákaza má čím dál víc obětí a není zdaleka jediná, kdo na Mingeru zabijí. Snahy o zavedení racionálních vědeckých metod narážejí na fatalistický odpor vůči protiepidemickým nařízením a zároveň se vyostřuje etnické napětí mezi Řeky a Turky, mezi křesťany a muslimy. Když pak Francouzi a Angličané uvalí na ostrov blokádu, aby se nákaza nedostala do Evropy, ospalá osmanská provincie, dokonale odříznutá od okolního světa, se náhle probere z letargie a stává se dějištěm divokého víru událostí: pučů a protipučů, boje modernistů s náboženskými fanatiky, rychlého střídání státních forem i překotného budování nového mingerského národa. Ve svém rozsáhlém, vrstevnatém a nesmírně podmanivém románu Pamuk jako ve vypouklém zrcadle zobrazuje nejen osmanskou společnost na přelomu století, ale i grotesknost vytváření oslavných národních historií a mýtů. Nezbytně nutná četba pro dnešní dobu. - Margaret Atwood Příběh o špionech, spiknutí a vraždě… překypující plnokrevnými postavami. - Independent Orhan Pamuk je autor takového kalibru, pro něž byla kdysi Nobelova cena vymyšlena. - Daily Telegraph

Cosi divného v mé hlavě - Orhan Pamuk
Cosi podivného v mé hlavě je rozsáhlá románová freska zachycující životní osudy pouličního prodavače Mevlüta, jehož rodina v 70. letech emigrovala ze střední Anatolie do Istanbulu. Na rozdíl od většiny svých předchozích děl Pamuk tentokrát opouští prostředí poevropštěné istanbulské smetánky a vydává se mezi migranty a nádeníky z okrajových částí města. Mevlüt se živí jako prodavač bozy, sladkého nápoje z lehce fermentované pšenice, a sní o tom, že jednoho dne zbohatne. Po tři roky neúnavně píše milostné dopisy dívce, kterou spatřil na jedné svatbě, ale nakonec si po sérii omylů odevzdaně vezme její sestru. Podobně smířen s osudem roky den co den obchází ulice Istanbulu a přemýšlí o oné podivnosti , kterou cítí ve své hlavě a jež ho odlišuje od ostatních - a nakonec ho další zvrat osudu přivede k poznání, po čem to celý život vlastně tolik toužil… Melancholičnost příběhu je narušována plejádou hlasů dalších, mnohdy bytostně komických postav, z nichž každá poodhaluje část Mevlütovy osobnosti a dodává knize humorný podtón. Cosi podivného v mé hlavě je nezvyklým portrétem Istanbulu kresleným z úhlu, jenž je i pro autora novinkou: z pohledu těch, kdo tvoří samé dno pestré istanbulské společnosti; je to další monumentální encyklopedie města, v níž autor s pečlivostí zapáleného sběratele shromažďuje nepřeberné množství postav, historických událostí, jídel nabízených pouličními prodavači i podivuhodných příhod z chudých istanbulských uliček. Velkolepý román. The Wall Street Journal Jeden z Pamukových nejpříjemnějších románů a ideální kniha pro čtenáře, kteří ho chtějí poznat. . . Pamuk dělá pro Istanbul něco, co James Joyce udělal pro Dublin. . . Zachycuje nejen vzhled a dojem města, ale i jeho kulturu, tradice, jeho lidi a jejich hodnoty. . . Milostný dopis modernímu Turecku. - Adam Kirsch, The Washington Post Vydání knihy podpořilo Ministerstvo kultury a turistiky Turecké republiky.

Rusovláska - Orhan Pamuk
Román je příběhem Cema, studnařského učedníka, jenž ve svém mistrovi nalézá otcovskou autoritu, kterou v životě postrádal. Do oidipovského vztahu těch dvou vstupuje tajemná rusovlasá žena, do níž se Cem bezhlavě zamiluje. Pamuk pracuje se vztahem otec-syn v několika dějových liniích, vedle klasického antického příběhu jde pro inspiraci do dávné perské legendy a děj staví do kulis Turecka od osmdesátých let minulého století do současnosti. V desátém románu tureckého nobelisty se objevují již dříve předkládané antagonismy Východ a Západ, minulost a budoucnost, tradice a moderna.

Výběr z esejí, které Pamuk napsal v průběhu necelých třiceti let, má jako ústřední témata dvě autorovy největší vášně: knihy a Istanbul. Sbírka je koláží jazykově i stylově vybroušených textů, které sahají od autorových vzpomínek na dětství přes pronikavé vhledy do těch nejbizarnějších koutů města na Bosporu až po kritické úvahy o světových literátech i vlastním psaní a zahrnuje i delší povídku. Z této různorodé mozaiky se skládá překvapivě ucelený, téměř románový svět spisovatele rozkročeného mezi Západem a Východem, který i z nenápadných každodenností dokáže vytvořit nesmírně poutavý příběh.

Young Woman and the Sea - Stout Glenn
NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM DISNEY STARRING DAISY RIDLEY.The exhilarating true story of Trudy Ederle, the first woman to swim the English Channel, and inspire a new era for women in sportsBy age twenty, at the height of the Jazz Age, Trudy Ederle was the most accomplished swimmer in the world. She’d won Olympic gold and set a host of world records. But the greatest challenge remained: the English Channel. Only a few swimmers, none of them women, had ever made the treacherous twenty-one mile crossing. Trudy’s failed first attempt seemed to confirm what many naysayers believed: No woman could possibly accomplish such a thing.In 1926, Ederle proved them wrong. As her German immigrant parents cheered her, and her sister and fellow swimmer Meg helped fashion both her scandalous two-piece swimsuit and leak-proof goggles, Trudy was determined to succeed. “England or drown is my motto,” she said, plunging into the frigid Channel for her second attempt at the crossing. Fourteen hours later, two hours faster than any man, and after weathering a gale and waves that approached six-feet, she stepped onto Kingsdowne Beach as the most famous woman in the world.Based on years of archival research that unearthed Ederle’s memory from obscurity, Young Woman and the Sea brings to life the real Trudy Ederle, the challenges that came with her fame, and the historic mark her achievement made for all women athletes who followed.

The Red Brigades - John Foot
A compelling and sobering read JOHN DICKIE, author of Mafia Republic Deeply researched and powerfully written ROSS KING, author of Brunelleschi s DomeThe explosive story of the terrorist group who brought Italy to a standstill in the 1970s.In March 1978, the Red Brigades kidnapped former Italian prime minister Aldo Moro, murdering his bodyguards. For nearly two months, they held him hostage while a shocked world looked on, before eventually killing him and dumping his body in the middle of Rome.But who were this terrorist group? What did they want? And how did they continue to operate for almost twenty years, terrifying a nation from 1970 to 1988? In John Footâ ™s remarkable new book, we learn how they became the most formidable left-wing terrorist organisation in post-war Western Europe. Drawing their support from the student protest movements of the 1960s, activists and workers radicalised by the â ˜hot autumnâ ™ of 1969, the Red Brigades were inspired by terrorist groups from across the world, especially in Latin America. They recognised no rules and authority other than their own, and launched a campaign of murder, kidnap, kneecapping and intimidation that paralysed Italyâ ™s justice system and reshaped the political landscape. For a time, they were admired as freedom fighters by the Italian left and commemorated as martyrs.Through meticulous research, Foot uncovers the true story behind the myths that have grown around the Red Brigades, highlighting the human costs of their actions, as well as their impact on Italian society. He explains how the contradictions inherent in their actions eventually led to their downfall in a series of high-profile mass trials. The Red Brigades sheds new light on the shadowy world of the brigatisti, and highlights their legacy of conspiracy, distrust and bitterness that still lingers in Italy to this day.

Potteries Motor Traction: The Red and Yellow Years - Cliff Beeton
For many people the halcyon days of Potteries Motor Traction was the decade between the management buyout of the company from the National Bus Company in 1986 until the merger of Badgerline and GRT to form First Bus in 1997. The adoption of the bright red-and-yellow livery with a zipper stripe ushered in the new era. Gone were the drab days of the National Bus Company and its poppy-red livery and restrictive practices. Deregulation in October 1986 would unleash new freedoms that would see PMT open depots and outstations at Crewe, Wolverhampton, Moreton, Stockport and Leeds, well outside their traditional operating area, to service recently won tendered services on behalf of other councils. These would be branded Red Rider. The purchase of the Crosville depots at Chester, Birkenhead and Ellesmere Port would take their red-and-yellow buses all over the Wirral and into Liverpool, and the purchase of Pennine Blue would establish operations around Tameside in Manchester.Cliff Beeton presents a vibrant selection of images that tells the fascinating story of Potteries Motor Traction in its heyday.

The Red Sea Scrolls - Mark Lehner, Pierre Tallet
Pierre Tallet’s discovery of the Red Sea Scrolls—the world’s oldest surviving written documents—in 2013 was one of the most remarkable moments in the history of Egyptology. These papyri, written some 4,600 years ago, and combined with Mark Lehner’s research, changed what we thought we knew about the building of the Great Pyramid at Giza.Here, for the first time, the world-renowned Egyptologists Tallet and Lehner give us the definitive account of this astounding discovery. The story begins with Tallet’s hunt for hieroglyphic rock inscriptions in the Sinai Peninsula and leads up to the discovery of the papyri, the diary of Inspector Merer, who oversaw workers in the reign of Pharaoh Khufu in Wadi el-Jarf, the site of an ancient harbor on the Red Sea. The translation of the papyri reveals how the stones of the Great Pyramid ended up in Giza. Combined with Lehner’s excavations of the harbor at the pyramid construction site the Red Sea Papyri have greatly advanced our understanding of how the ancient Egyptians were able to build monuments that survive to this day.Tallet and Lehner narrate this thrilling discovery and explore how the building of the pyramids helped create a unified state, propelling Egyptian civilization forward. This lavishly illustrated book captures the excitement and significance of these seminal findings, conveying above all how astonishing it is to discover a contemporary eyewitness testimony to the creation of the only remaining Wonder of the Ancient World.

The Worst Woman in London - Julia Bennet
A Bridgerton-inspired humorous Victorian romance featuring a defiant heroine who fights to escape a bad marriage, while her love for a forbidden man jeopardizes her chance at freedom. “Romantic, feminist, and shimmers with intelligence. Let #39;s hope Ms. Bennet keeps writing—we need more historical romance just like this!” —All About Romance James Standish knows how to play society’s game. He’ll follow the rules—marry a virginal debutante and inherit a massive fortune. At least, that’s the plan until he meets Francesca Thorne. She’s not the sort of woman a respectable gentleman like James could ever marry—not least because, strictly speaking, she’s married already to James #39;s friend Edward. Francesca is determined to flout convention and divorce her philandering husband. When James sweet-talks his way into her life—tasked with convincing Francesca to abandon her dream of freedom—she’s unprepared for the passion that flares between them. Torn apart by conflicting desires, James and Francesca must choose whether to keep chasing the lives they’ve always wanted or to take a chance on a new and forbidden love.“The Worst Woman in London is the kind of historical novel I’ve been dying to read.”—The New York Times

The Red Hotel - Alan Philps
Called a riveting study by the Daily Telegraph and a compelling tale by the Economist, The Red Hotel tells the story of forgotten correspondents and translators in Stalin s Russia and the gilded cage of the Metropol Hotel. Reporters. Translators. Lovers. Spies. In THE RED HOTEL: THE UNTOLD STORY OF STALIN S PROPAGANDA WAR, former Daily Telegraph Foreign Editor and Russia expert Alan Philps sets out the way Stalin created his own reality by constraining and muzzling the British and American reporters covering the Eastern front during the war and forcing them to reproduce Kremlin propaganda. War correspondents were both bullied and pampered in the gilded cage of the Metropol Hotel. They enjoyed lavish supplies of caviar and had their choice of young women to employ as translators and to share their beds.While some of these translators turned journalists into robotic conveyors of Kremlin propaganda, others were brave secret dissenters who whispered to reporters the reality of Soviet life and were punished with sentences in the Gulag. Through the use of British archives and Russian sources, the story of the role of the women of the Metropol Hotel and the foreign reporters they worked with is told for the first time. This revelatory story will finally lift the lid on Stalin s operation to muzzle and control what the Western allies writers and foreign correspondents knew of his regime s policies to prosecute the war against Hitler s rampaging armies from June 1941 onwards.

The perfect book to soothe worries during stressful times.A small child awakes to find blackened leaves falling from her bedroom ceiling, threatening to overwhelm her. Sometimes you wake up with nothing to look forward to... As she wanders around a world that is complex, puzzling and alienating, she is overtaken by a myriad of feelings. Just as it seems all hope is lost, the girl returns to her bedroom to find that a tiny red seedling has grown to fill the room with warm light. As a kind of fable, The Red Tree seeks to remind us that, though some bad feelings are inevitable, they are always tempered by hope.
