POZOR! Nejedná se o fantastiku! V roce 1942, v době vrcholící druhé světové války, Ernest Hemingway požádal amerického velvyslance na Kubě o povolení řídit ze svého domu na kubánském venkově špionážní skupinu. To je pravda... Dan Simmons, držitel mnoha literárních ocenění, rozvádí tuto málo známou historickou skutečnost do důmyslně promyšleného, napínavého příběhu. V létě roku 1942 odjel agent FBI jménem Joe Lucas na Kubu, aby na příkaz J. Edgara Hoovera hlídal Ernesta Hemingwaye, který se lehkovážně rozhodl, že si v Karibiku bude hrát na špióna. Lucas dostal instrukce, aby nějakým způsobem získal důvěru a přátelství slavného autora, avšak ani všechen chladnokrevný rozum a výcvik jej nepřipravily na lidskou smršť známou jako „Papá.“ Hemingway vytvořil špionážní skupinu, které říká „Zlodějská dílna“, aby rozehrál dramatickou partii amatérské špionáže. Pak, navzdory všem očekáváním, Hemingway získá závažnou zpravodajskou informaci a hra se stane pro něho, Lucase a nesčetné nevinné smrtelně nebezpečnou. V Továrně křiváků Dan Simmons splétá nezapomenutelný, strhující příběh zalidněný postavami většími než život, které ve 40. letech 20. století obývají smyslnou, opojnou kubánskou krajinu. Je to román o cti, vášni a mrazivém spiknutí. A klidně se to mohlo stát...

Long overdue, this first comprehensive survey spans three decades of Simmons’ richly layered, socially engaged artPublished with Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Covering 30 years of sculptures, paintings, works on paper, large-scale wall drawings, installations and site-specific works, this book presents the art of Gary Simmons, one of the most respected artists of his generation. Since the late 1980s, Simmons has played a key role in situating questions of race, class and gender identity within art discourse.

Among the topics Dan explores are:* What we think will make us happy and what really makes us happy;* How we learn to love the ones we are with;* Why online dating doesn't work, and how we can improve on it;* Why learning more about people make us like them less;* Why large bonuses can make CEOs less productive;* How to really motivate people at work;* Why bad directions can help us;* How we fall in love with our ideas;* How we are motivated by revenge; and* What motivates us to cheat.

Dvě lodě britského královského námořnictva, které se roku 1845 vydaly hledat tzv. severozápadní cestu – tedy způsob, jak obeplout Ameriku od severu a dostat se mezi Kanadskými arktickými ostrovy z Atlantiku do Pacifiku.

V mozaice výpovědí, proložené retrospektivními pasážemi, se vyjevují osudy námořníků, kteří uvázli v arktické ledové pasti, docházejí jim potraviny, sužují je kurděje i jiné choroby a navíc je pronásleduje tajemný netvor z inuitských mýtů. Dramatický příběh boje o přežití je vystavěn na půdorysu dostupných historických fakt, zároveň je však barvitě zprostředkován skrze perspektivu posádky, pro níž cesta za dobrodružstvím postupně nabývá nečekaně děsivých rozměrů.
