eBook: First published in December 1853, Clotel was written amid then unconfirmed rumors that Thomas Jefferson had fathered children with one of his slaves. The story begins with the auction of his mistress, here called Currer, and their two daughters, Clotel and Althesa. The Virginian who buys Clotel falls in love with her, gets her pregnant, seems to promise marriage—then sells her. Escaping from the slave dealer, Clotel returns to Virginia disguised as a white man in order to rescue her daughter, Mary, a slave in her father’s house. A fast-paced and harrowing tale of slavery and freedom, of the hypocrisies of a nation founded on democratic principles, Clotel is more than a sensationalist novel. It is a founding text of the African American novelistic tradition, a brilliantly composed and richly detailed exploration of human relations in a new world in which race is a cultural construct.

Pandémia koronavírusu aj človekovi 21. storočia ukázala, aký je zraniteľný a bezmocný po telesnej i duševnej stránke. Už počas morovej epidémie pred mnohými stáročiami sa veriaci utiekali k Bohu o pomoc, a aby ich modlitba bola účinnejšia, zverili ju do rúk tým, ktorí sú mu zvlášť drahí. Za mimoriadnych pomocníkov a orodovníkov sa vtedy považovali 14 svätci: Juraj, Blažej, Erazmus, Pantaleón, Vít, Krištof, Dionýz, Cyriak, Agátius, Eustach a Egídius, Katarína, Margaréta a Barbora. Títo svätí kresťania a obete krutých prenasledovaní si nahromadili poklady v nebi, a s radosťou z nich nadeľujú všetkým, ktorí o ne prosia. Repertoár potrieb, v ktorých nám môžu pomôcť, je veľmi rozsiahly, o čom nás presvedčí aj knižka 14 svätých pomocníkov.

eBook: With a subtitle like "A Tale of the Great Dismal Swamp" you would be forgiven for thinking that this book is an antidote to joy, and when on top of that, you discover that Dred is not in fact Dredd - as in Judge Dredd, futuristic cop played by Sylvester Stallone in the 1995 movie of the same name - vigor and optimism might leave your body entirely. But fear not, somebody left the Stowe on after "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and Harriet is back with a vengeance. The Great Dismal Swamp was a swamp in Virginia inhabited by thousands of escaped slaves for about 150 years in 18th and 19th century, one of whom is the titular character, Dred, an outspoken revolutionary. The story, however, is Nina Gordon's – the heiress of a failing plantation, her idealistic, liberal husband and their humane relationship with their slaves. In some circles touted as superior to "Uncle Tom's Cabin", "Dred" is a slow-burning drama full of engaging characters sprinkled with the writer's abolitionist viewpoints. A solid pick if you had preferred Uncle Tom to have been more of a Malcolm X.

eBook: O ničem se netraduje tolik nepravd a mýtů jako o sexu a nic není spoutáno tolika tabu a zatíženo takovým nepochopením. Náš „západní" svět má sklon na jedné straně degradovat sex na pouhé nezávazné potěšení, na straně druhé jej pokládat za něco hříšného. Oba tyto špatné přístupy mají pak společnou ještě jednu chybnou domněnku. A sice, že tělo a duch stojí v přímém protikladu. Východní kultury ovšem odedávna vědí, že je to právě naopak. Pravda je totiž přímo šokující. Rozhodně ale nejde o žádné nepříjemné odříkání, o vynucený celibát nebo jiné násilné, a tím pádem škodlivé postupy. Před těmi, kteří mají odvahu, vůli a chuť vykročit po cestě vzhůru, odkrývá slavná mystička tajemství přeměny lidské sexuální síly v nejvyšší sílu božskou.

eBook: Ve své poslední knize se francouzská psycholožka věnuje fascinující osobnosti rakouské císařovny Marie Terezie, výjimečné ženy v dějinách, která dokázala skloubit politickou dráhu panovnice mocného státního útvaru a roli matky, úzkostlivě pečující o výchovu svých dětí. Studium historických materiálů v archivech (díky českým šlechtičnám pohybujícím se v okolí císařovny pochází mnoho dokumentů z českých archivů) umožnilo autorce vykreslit obraz Marie Terezie jako důkladné a starostlivé matky, někdy vůči svým dětem i velmi přísné a tvrdě upřímné. Čtenáři se dozví, jaké pokyny Marie Terezie udílela vychovatelům, jak prožívala nemoci svých dětí i které ze svých potomků upřednostňovala s ohledem na zájmy monarchie. Srdce Marie Terezie patřilo jak jejím dětem, jejichž výchova se vymykala dobovým zvyklostem u panovnic a aristokratkám její úrovně, tak monarchii, které vládla. Výchova dětí s ohledem na zájmy Rakouska-Uherska přitom nemohly uniknout častým konfliktům a nevraživostem i mezi potomky, ale nejmocnější vládkyně tehdejší Evropy se je vždy snažila řešit s láskou, diplomacií a noblesou.
