Drtivý příběh rozbitého dětství a neodvratného rozkladu jedné rodiny Tři bratři se vracejí na rodinnou chatu u jezera, kam se dvacet let žádný z nich neodvážil. Přivážejí s sebou urnu s popelem a chystají se tu splnit matčino nečekané poslední přání. Společná cesta je však provede nejen důvěrně známou krajinou, ale také časem. Náhle jsou z nich opět chlapci s opálenýma nohama a dychtivýma očima, soupeřící o otcovu přízeň a matčinu vrtkavou lásku, kteří mají na světě jen jeden druhého a možná také vůbec nikoho. Nyní tu stojí jako mladí dospělí muži, navzájem si tak cizí, a přesto nerozlučně spoutaní okovy minulosti. Osudné místo nesmlouvavě vyhání na povrch pečlivě pohřbené vzpomínky a hořkost, která mezi bratry znovu vráží klín. Jak dokáže domov prolezlý nejistotou jako minové pole poznamenat dětskou mysl? A co se doopravdy stalo onoho léta, kdy se všechno rozpadlo na kusy?

Audiokniha: Hluboko v jejich minulosti zeje slepá skvrna. A vede k ní jen červí díra bolesti. Chalupa ve švédské jezerní kotlině patří do zasutých hlubin dětství, kam Nils, Benjamin a Pierre jezdívali s rodiči vítat letní slunovrat. Dávno dospělí bratři se k ní nyní vracejí s urnou matčina popela, aby ho podle posledního přání zesnulé rozptýlili do zdejších vod, a už cestou znovu čelí zdrcující atmosféře, která je před dvaceti lety z idylické krajiny vyhnala. Z jejich hovorů, hádek a strkanic postupně vyplyne, do jaké míry tehdejší rodinné soužití utvářely tiché konflikty, antipatie a obsese, vůči nimž není imunní ani občan prosperující severské země. Panovačný otec, úzkostná matka, jejich pijácké zkraty i studený odchov potomků, jehož důsledky vnímáme zejména přecitlivělýma očima prostředního syna Benjamina, mají však společného jmenovatele vytěsněného do pomyslné slepé skvrny traumatizujících vzpomínek. Co ke zpřetrhání nejněžnějších pout vedlo? Intenzivní románové psychodrama, které se řadí k nejvýraznějším švédským knihám posledních let, se noří do rodinného dusna v retrospektivě pojaté na račí způsob. Klepeta emocí sevřou publikum až do bolestného rozuzlení, jež člověka zasáhne přímo do srdce a přitaví ho k židli. „Nad osudem trojice bratrů se neubráníte slzám: nad muži, kteří se z nich stali, nad chlapci, jimiž bývali, i nad tím, jak krutě přišli o dětskou nevinnost. Úžasné, tíživé, nezapomenutelné.“ – Fredrik Backman, autor bestsellerů Úzkosti a jejich lidé a Muž jménem Ove. „Vzpomínky i hrůzy se točí ve spirále flashback za flashbackem. Výsledkem je jak obraz dysfunkční rodiny kontrastně zarámovaný krásou Severu, tak především pointa, jíž by se čtenář nenadál.“ – Kirkus Reviews. „Hutný a vyzrálý román. Líčení přírody v něm nabývá téměř starodávných rytmů.“ – Dagens Nyheter.

Edward Fosca is a murderer. Of this Mariana is certain. But Fosca is untouchable. A handsome and charismatic Greek tragedy professor at Cambridge University, Fosca is adored by staff and students alike - particularly by the members of a secret society of female students known as The Maidens. Mariana Andros is a brilliant but troubled group therapist who becomes fixated on The Maidens when one member, a friend of Mariana's niece Zoe, is found murdered in Cambridge. Mariana, who was once herself a student at the university, quickly suspects that behind the idyllic beauty of the spires and turrets, and beneath the ancient traditions, lies something sinister. And she becomes convinced that, despite his alibi, Edward Fosca is guilty of the murder. But why would the professor target one of his students? And why does he keep returning to the rites of Persephone, the maiden, and her journey to the underworld? When another body is found, Mariana's obsession with proving Fosca's guilt spirals out of control, threatening to destroy her credibility as well as her closest relationships. But Mariana is determined to stop this killer, even if it costs her everything - including her life.

Martin Schulman je jedním z nejpozoruhodnějších astrologů současnosti. Vlivy či vlastnosti naznačené jednotlivými prvky horoskopu chápe jako potenciál, jehož cílem není nic menšího než dovést jedince k osvícení, naplnění poslání a vyčištění karmy. Severní lunární uzel určujě směr nového vývoje. Dům a znamení, kde se nachází, odhalují, co by měl člověk v tomto životě rozvíjet. Jižní lunární uzel naopak znamená, nač je zvyklý a čeho se nechce vzdát, čeho se však vzdát musí ve prospěch opačného přístupu, symbolizovaného uzlem severním. Když je planeta retrográdní, má to zvláštní význam. Každá je podrobně analyzovaná ve všech znameních i domech: co symbolizuje, jak utváří osobnost a jakou karmu představuje. Velmi důležitý je bod štěstí. Podrobně se zde vysvětluje jeho význam nejprve ve všeobecnosti a potom konkrétně podle postavení v horoskopu v domech a znameních; rovněž analyzuje jeho aspekty. Karma přítomnosti představuje zvláštní výklad všech planet: podle toho, jak nás motivují k pozitivnímu vnímání a jednání; k tomu, abychom naplnili své potřeby a zaujali své místo ve světě s plnou odpovědností za svůj život.

Název satirické i populárně vědecké knihy amerického astronoma Erica Schulmana nepřehlédnutelně odkazuje ke slavné knize Stephena W. Hawkinga Stručná historie času. Od velkého třesku k černým dírám (1988, česky 1991), která představuje reprezentativní a bravurně napsanou naučnou knihu o vzniku a vývoji vesmíru. Schulmanovo gesto je zcela jistě výrazem obdivu ke kolegovi. Stojí přitom za to přečíst si Hawkingovu knížku současně se Schulmanovou, neboť můžeme porovnat základní ideje o smyslu vesmíru a života na zemi, které stojí za "seriózním" a za "komickým" výkladem. I Schulman vykládá dějiny vesmíru a vznik a vývoj života na Zemi, činí tak ovšem s humorem, ironickou zkratkou i množstvím literárních parafrází a aluzí od knihy Genesis přes W. Shakespeara, The Beatles až právě po S. W. Hawkinga. I v Schulmanově koláži najdeme traktovány představy, že vývoj vesmíru řídí jako svou zábavu cizí vesmírné síly, představu, že ve vývoji života na Zemi jde o naplňování plánu jednoho paleontologického živočišného druhu ovládnout Zemi, či lehce ironizovaný sci-fi motiv Země jako předmětu pozorování a zásahů vyspělé vesmírné civilizace. Schulmanova knížka je klasikou v oboru humoristické či parodické vědy a touto klasikou komiky se může stát i pro českého čtenáře.

(Spoiler alert – it won’t.)In one, no-holds-barred book, they will go behind the scenes of the hugely successful podcast The Good, The Bad and The Rugby to pull back the curtain on some of their most outrageous antics on tour – the ups, the downs and the sideways – and leave no story untold. All will be unleashed.

An evocative and lyrical history of Cyprus and the Mediterranean. Think of a place where can you stand at the intersection of Christian and Arab cultures, at the crossroads of the British, Ottoman, Byzantine, Roman and Egyptian empires; a place marked by the struggle between fascism and communism and where the capital city is divided in half as a result of bloody conflict; where the ancient olive trees of Homer's time exist alongside the undersea cables which link up the world's internet. In Cypria, named after a lost Cypriot epic which was the prequel to The Odyssey, British Cypriot writer Alex Christofi writes a deeply personal, lyrical history of the island of Cyprus, from the era of goddesses and mythical beasts to the present day. This sprawling, evocative and poetic book begins with the legend of the cyclops and the storytelling at the heart of the Mediterranean culture. Christofi travels to salt lakes, crusader castles, mosques and the eerie town deserted at the start of the 1974 war. He retells the particularly bloody history of Cyprus during the twentieth century and considers his own identity as traveler and returner, as Odysseus was. Written in the same sensitive, witty and beautifully rendered prose as his last book Dostoevsky in Love, with a novelist's flair and eye for detail, Cypria combines the political, cultural and geographical history of Cyprus with reflections on time, place and belonging.

Autro podrobně rozebírá podstatu ascendentu v horoskopu, a to z poněkud nezvyklého pohledu: ascendent podle něj není jen jakýmsi ukazatelem vnějšího projevu a případně vzhledu zrozence, ale branou do duše, která filtruje vše ostatní v horoskopu. Po velmi zajímavé celkové teorii o tom, co vlastně ascendent je a jak působí, nabízí kniha výklad jednotlivých dvanácti ascendentů a na závěr dva ukázkové horoskopy.

Malcolm X''s The Autobiography of Malcolm X was written in collaboration with Alex Haley, author of Roots, and includes an introduction by Paul Gilroy, author of The Black Atlantic, in Penguin Modern Classics.From hustling, drug addiction and armed violence in America''s black ghettos Malcolm X turned, in a dramatic prison conversion, to the puritanical fervour of the Black Muslims. As their spokesman he became identified in the white press as a terrifying teacher of race hatred; but to his direct audience, the oppressed American blacks, he brought hope and self-respect. This autobiography (written with Alex Haley) reveals his quick-witted integrity, usually obscured by batteries of frenzied headlines, and the fierce idealism which led him to reject both liberal hypocrisies and black racialism.Vilified by his critics as an anti-white demagogue, Malcolm X gave a voice to unheard African-Americans, bringing them pride, hope and fearlessness, and remains an inspirational and controversial figure.Malcolm X (1925-65), born Malcolm Little in Omaha, and also known as El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz, lost both his parents at a young age. Leaving school early, he soon became part of Harlem''s underworld, and in 1946 he was sentenced to ten years'' imprisonment. It was in prison that Malcolm X converted to Islam. Paroled in 1952, he became an outspoken defender of Muslim doctrines, formed the Organization of Afro-American Unity in 1963, and had received considerable publicity by the time of his assassination in 1965.If you enjoyed The Autobiography of Malcolm X, you might like Nelson Mandela''s No Easy Walk to Freedom, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.''This extraordinary autobiography is a brilliant, painful, important book''The New York Times

I wanted people to look at the artwork and hear the music.” —Alex SteinweissAlex Steinweiss (1917–2011) invented the album cover as we know it. In 1940, as Columbia Records’ young new art director, he pitched an idea: Why not replace the standard plain brown wrapper with an eye-catching illustration? The company took a chance, and within months its record sales increased by over 800 per cent. Over the next three decades, Steinweiss made thousands of original artworks for classical, jazz, and popular record covers for Columbia, Decca, London, and Everest; as well as logos, labels, advertising material, even his own typeface, the Steinweiss Scrawl. His daring designs, gathered here in all their bright combinations of bold typography with modern, elegant illustration, revolutionized the way music was sold. The book includes Steiweiss’ personal recollections and ephemera from an epic career, as well as insightful essays by three-time Grammy Award-winning art director/designer Kevin Reagan and graphic design historian Steven Heller.
