Případy komisaře Wallandera 9 - poslední případ světoznámého komisaře Wallandera. Jednoho dubnového rána roku 2008 zmizí na své pravidelné procházce lesoparkem vysloužilý vysoce postavený námořní důstojník H?kan von Enke. Vyšetřování případu má na starosti stockholmská policie a komisař Wallander s ním nemá nic společného - tedy oficiálně. Jenže zmizelý důstojník se měl stát tchánem jeho dcery. A tak se Wallander brzy zaplete do věcí, po kterých mu úředně nic není, slibuje, co vzápětí nesplní, dokonce i lže, když je to zapotřebí - a vychází mu to. Brzy ale narazí na matoucí špionážní aktivity, které se váží ještě k době studené války… Přidávají se ale další nečekané překážky. Co překročil šedesátku, má komisař pocit, že se nachází na prahu senility. Zoufale se drží naděje, kterou pro něj zosobňuje nedávno narozená vnučka, ale životní realita ho dohání. Do budoucnosti hledí s velkou nejistotou a zdá se nevyhnutelné, že se musí tváří v tvář utkat s tím nejvzpurnějším soupeřem: sám se sebou. Henning Mankell vytvořil v komisaři Wallanderovi jednu z nejzajímavějších postav současného detektivního světa. Mankell dvakrát získal Cenu švédské akademie autorů detektivní literatury, za své knihy obdržel různá uznání ve Skandinávii, Evropě i Americe.

Audiokniha: Jak dohnat temný stín ve stopách zavražděného kolegy? Netradiční oslava slunovratu v maskách a kostýmech z 18. století má nešťastný konec – trojice mladých lidí, která se jí zúčastnila, se pohřešuje. Když je pak Wallanderův kolega Svedberg, který se do pátrání po nich pustil na vlastní pěst, nalezen mrtev, uvědomí si komisař, že má co do činění s nemilosrdným vrahem. Sedmý díl série případů komisaře Wallandera. „Napětí v souboji neúprosného zabijáka a policistů, kteří ve snaze dospět alespoň k náznaku nějakého řešení už ani nevědí, co je spánek, se neustále stupňuje. Vylíčit atmosféru plnou nervozity až beznaděje uměl Mankell dokonale, stejně jako vytvořit psychologicky věrohodné postavy.“ – Alena Slezáková, MF Dnes „Jiřího herecký projev založený na úspornosti a věcnosti mi imponuje, navíc se velkými rolemi, do nichž je obsazován, dobrušuje k ještě větší rafinované autentičnosti mezi stylizací a reálem, takže se na jevišti, na plátně i před mikrofonem zdá, že interpret vlastně jen existuje, aniž by hrál.

Audiokniha: Henning Mankell je mezinárodně nejprodávanější švédský autor. Jiří Vyorálek představuje v prvním případu jeho slavného komisaře, zasmušilého bručouna, Kurta Wallandera... Komisaře Kurta Wallandera opustila žena, dcera s ním příliš nekomunikuje a jeho otec propadá senilitě. Pocity vyčerpanosti a zmaru vyvrcholí brzkým ranním výjezdem ke zdánlivě rutinnímu případu na osamělé farmě. Uprostřed mrazivého lednového rána na něj totiž čeká šokující místo činu: brutálně zavražděný starý muž a jeho manželka téměř zadušená smyčkou se zvláštním uzlem. Jediným svědectvím staré ženy, která v nemocnici podlehne svým zraněním, však zůstává slovo: „cizí“. Když zjištěná informace unikne do médií, má Wallander co dělat nejen s neznámými pachateli, ale rovněž s xenofobní vlnou násilí proti obyvatelům místního uprchlického tábora. Příležitost seznámit se s tímto báječným antihrdinou lidskosti, plným pochyb o vlastním životě a značně deprimovaným tím, jak hrůzné události vyjevují odpudivou stránku švédské společnosti… Pro ty, kdo Wallandera ještě neznají, je to kniha, kterou je třeba začít objevovat Mankellovo románové dílo. Babelio Mimořádný román. Hloubka a napětí, které uchvacují. Los Angeles Times Zručně popsané policejní postupy, příběh se rozvíjí ve svižném tempu a vrcholí ve strhujícím rozuzlení.

Tělo starce je nabodnuto v pasti vytvořené z ostrých bambusových tyčí. Tato vražda byla pečlivě naplánována. A vzápětí zmizí další muž… Vyšetřování je ubíjející: nalezené stopy nikam nevedou a nepatrný postup vpřed je možný jen díky zarputilé policejní práci.

I když proti otci a jeho způsobům celou pubertu protestovala, vybrala si nakonec tutéž profesi. Jsou přece jedné krve, což švédští strážci zákona ocení. Linda je sice nejspíš stejně prchlivá a paličatá jako její táta Kurt, ale taky intuitivní bystrozraká mladá žena, která si umí spojit dvě a dvě a pronásledovat zlořád s urputností buldoka. Krom toho má paklíč otevírající lecjaké dveře, i kdyby to týden před formálním nástupem k ystadskému sboru znamenalo, že vážně ohrozí svou bezpečnost… Začalo to hořícími labutěmi v parku, pak kdosi upálil tele ve stáji a způsobil i požár svatostánku, po němž v lavici zůstala uškrcená věřící.

Komisař Wallander vyšetřuje zmizení realitní makléřky Louisy Åkerblomové, aniž by našel jakékoli vysvětlení či motiv. Policista tuší, že vzorná manželka a matka zřejmě už není mezi živými. Nemůže však vědět, že její zabití souvisí s politickým děním a plánovaným pokusem o vraždu Nelsona Mandely v Jihoafrické republice. Třetí případ existenciálně uvažujícího detektiva v podání Jiřího Vyorálka se opět dotýká společenského kontextu doby - tentokrát jihoafrického apartheidu či přesunu bývalých členů KGB po rozpadu Sovětského svazu do řad mafie či služeb nových "zaměstnavatelů". Velkou špionážní zápletku přenáší Mankell z horkého kontinentu na malou plochu kraje jižního Švédska, kde se spiklenci jakoby mimochodem dopouštějí brutálního násilí.

Audiokniha: Jak to vlastně všechno začalo? Mnohé fanoušky série o komisaři Kurtu Wallanderovi zajímalo, co se dělo před 8. lednem 1990 – tedy před oním časným zimním ránem v Ystadu, kdy tenkrát téměř třiačtyřicetiletého policistu vzbudil telefonát na začátku Vrahů bez tváře. Pětice poutavých příběhů tvořících tento soubor poodhaluje pár střípků z komisařovy minulosti, které se jeho stvořitel uvolil pustit do světa. Jaký případ byl Kurt nucen řešit coby jednadvacetiletý pochůzkář v Malmö? Kdo ho omráčil a spoutal na benzinové pumpě o Štědrém večeru roku 1975? A proč se mu vlastně rozpadlo manželství?

Nicméně znamenitá intuice i přes hrozbu počínající demence zůstává: ve střehu ji drží případ vysloužilého námořního kapitána Håkana von Enkeho, nastávajícího tchána jeho dcery a druhého dědečka Kurtovy vnučky, jenž v dubnu 2008 zčistajasna zmizel ze své stockholmské vily.

By Satoshi NakamotoGuide by Jaya Klara BrekkeIntroduction by James BridleEdited by Ben Vickers In the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto published a revolutionary white paper that described a simple peer-to-peer electronic cash system that would later become Bitcoin. In the decade since the launch of the digital currency, the nascent blockchain technology behind Bitcoin has been heralded as having the same radical potential as the printing press or the Internet, in particular presenting extraordinary challenges to traditional banking. Yet the paper contains no reference to existing political ideas, monetary or economic knowledge. Why?James Bridle’s introduction situates Bitcoin within an obscure historical movement of decentralisation, powered by the ideologies of encryption, showing how blockchain is part of a wider project to redraw the maps of political possibility. The White Paper returns to Nakamoto’s canonical text as a Rosetta Stone that reveals the far-reaching implications of decentralisation, with crypto-economist Jaya Klara Brekke’s guide demonstrating how it can serve as the compass for a rapidly shifting terrain of contemporary techno-politics.Inside The White Paper: Extensive introduction by James Bridle on the historical trajectory of cryptography and how it gave rise to the blockchain.

An MSNBC political analyst and former Hillary Clinton staffer examines the past and present problems of the Left—and makes a compelling case for how to take back our government and secure a better future for America.In the entire history of the United States of America, we've never elected a woman as our president. And we've only had one president who was not a white man.After working on two presidential campaigns (for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton), MSNBC political analyst and SiriusXM host Zerlina Maxwell gained first-hand knowledge of everything liberals have been doing right over the past few elections-and everything they are still doing wrong. Ultimately, these errors worked in President Donald Trump's favor in 2016; he effectively ran a campaign on white identity politics, successfully tapping into white male angst and resistance. In 2020, after the Democratic Party's most historically diverse pool of presidential candidates finally dwindled down to Joe Biden, once again an older white man, Maxwell has posed the ultimate question: what now, liberals?Fueled by Maxwell's trademark wit and candor, The End of White Politics dismantles the past and present problems of the Left, challenging everyone from scrappy, young "Bernie Bros" to seasoned power players in the ...

When the first Africans arrived in Virginia in 1619, there were no 'white' people there; nor, according to colonial records, would there be for another sixty years. Historical debate about the origin of racial slavery has focused on the status of the Negro in seventeenth-century Virginia and Maryland. However, as Theodore W. Allen argues in this magisterial work, what needs to be studied is the transformation of English, Scottish, Irish and other European colonists from their various statuses as servants, tenants, planters or merchants into a single new all-inclusive status: that of whites. This is the key to the paradox of American history, of a democracy resting on race assumptions.Volume One of this two-volume work attempts to escape the 'white blind spot' which has distorted consecutive studies of the issue. It does so by looking in the mirror of Irish history for a definition of racial oppression and for an explanation of that phenomenon in terms of social control, free from the absurdities of classification by skin color. Compelling analogies are presented between the history of Anglo-Irish and British rule in Ireland and American White Supremacist oppression of Indians and African-Americans. But the relativity of race is shown in the ... Unknown localization key: "more"

'Fascinating' - Eamon Dunphy'Meticulously researched' - Sunday Independent'A wonderful account of the special relationships between Ireland and the USA' Bertie AhernThe links between Ireland and US presidents extend much further and deeper than JFK: from Andrew Jackson in 1829 to Woodrow Wilson in 1913 and Joe Biden in 2021, Ireland's sway in the White House is hugely significant. Spanning the centuries, from the American Revolution to the birth of the Irish Republic and JFK's heady glamour, The Green and White House takes in political machinations and the firebrands who pushed for freedom, justice and peace for Ireland. For centuries, Irish emigrants crossed the Atlantic by boat, but an intense diplomatic bromance has seen American commanders-in-chief returning to remote Irish villages via Air Force One and armoured limousines. Each homecoming turns local people into international media darlings, but this transatlantic courtship has secured Ireland an annual invite to the White House - something no other nation can rival. The Green And White House takes a wry look at the special relationship one tiny nation shares with the world's greatest superpower.
