‘A hero of mine, a moral as well as literary giant’ Simon SchamaAmos Oz, the internationally acclaimed author of A Tale of Love and Darkness and Judas, grew up in war-torn Jerusalem, where as a boy he witnessed first-hand the poisonous consequences of fanaticism. In How To Cure a Fanatic Amos Oz analyses the historical roots of violence and confronts truths about the extremism nurtured throughout society. By bringing us face to face with fanaticism he suggests ways in which we can all respond.

Revelatory talks about art and life with internationally acclaimed Israeli novelist Amos OzIn the last years of his life, the writer Amos Oz talked regularly with Shira Hadad, who worked closely with him as the editor of his final novel, Judas. These candid, uninhibited dialogues show a side of Oz that few ever saw. What Makes an Apple? presents the most revealing of these conversations in English for the first time, painting an illuminating and disarmingly intimate portrait of a towering literary figure. In frank and open exchanges that are by turns buoyant, introspective, and argumentative, Oz explains what impels him to begin a story and shares his routines, habits, and challenges as a writer. He discusses the tectonic changes he experienced in his lifetime in relationships between women and men, and describes how his erotic coming of age shaped him not only as a man but also as an author. Oz reflects on his parents, his formative years on a kibbutz, and how he dealt with and learned from his critics, his students, and his fame. He talks about why there is more humor in his later books and gives his exceptional take on fear of death. Resonating with ... Unknown localization key: "more"

"Tahle kniha by se klidně mohla jmenovat Příběh skokana do prázdných bazénů," říká izraelský spisovatel Amos Oz. To když vypráví o zlomových okamžicích svého života, kdy se několikrát vydal do neznáma a musel začít znovu - změnil si jméno a opustil domov, podstatnou část života strávil v kibucu, kde si těžce vybojoval podmínky na psaní a nakonec i odtud musel spolu s dětmi a manželkou odejít téměř bez peněz a bez prostředků. Rozhovor s ním vede dlouholetá redaktorka jeho knih Šira Chadadová. Kriticky se ho ptá na jeho psaní a inspirace, politické postoje a vztah k erotice a genderu, empaticky naslouchá, když Oz vypráví o sebevraždě své matky nebo hněvu fanatiků, které pobouřil svými texty. V šesti rozhovorech o vášni a lásce, vině, radosti a smrti přináší ojedinělý a intimní vhled do života a tvorby významného spisovatele, věčného čekatele na Nobelovu cenu za literaturu.

Discover Amos Oz’s most iconic work in this extraordinary memoir that is at once a great family saga and a magical self-portrait of a writer who witnessed the birth of a nation*OVER 2 MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE*‘A hero of mine, a moral as well as literary giant’ Simon SchamaAmos Oz''s remarkable, moving story takes us on a seductive journey through his childhood and adolescence, along Jerusalem''s war-torn streets in the 1940s and ''50s and into a small apartment crowded with books in twelve languages and relatives speaking nearly as many. Caught between them is one small boy with the weight of generations on his shoulders. Oz dives into 120 years of family history and paradox, the saga of a Jewish love-hate affair with Europe that sweeps from Vilna and Odessa, via Poland and Prague, to Israel. Farce and heartbreak, history and humanity make up this story of clashing cultures and lives, of suffering and perseverance, of love and darkness. ‘Oz’s greatest work…not only his autobiography, but in a way the biography of Israel before it was created’ David Grossman, Observer

Sociolog Alexander Gideon a jeho bývalá žena Ilana začínají s odstupem sedmi let luštit obsah "černé skříňky" svého rozpadlého manželství. Chtějí zjistit, proč ztroskotal jejich kdysi vášnivý, ale nevyrovnaný vztah. Několikaměsíční výměna dopisů, telegramů a dalších zpráv, do níž se postupně zapojuje i Ilanin druhý muž, rebelantský syn nebo Alexandrův advokát, čtenáře krok za krokem vtahuje do jejich stále ostřejší konfrontace. Všechny sice pojí silné citové pouto, ale přesto nejsou schopni překonat bariéru zaujatosti a nesmiřitelnosti. A týká se to i jejich politických a náboženských postojů, skrze něž Amos Oz přináší výpověď o rozporuplné tváři moderní izraelské společnosti. Jeho román vyvolal záhy po svém vydání značný ohlas, byl přeložen do jedenácti světových jazyků a vyznamenán mj. francouzskou cenou Femina.

Obraz fiktivního kibucu padesátých let je pro Amose Oze návratem do míst, kde se zrodilo jeho psaní. Žijí tu kromě jiných i osamělí lidé, kteří se s kolektivistickým duchem prostředí těžko vyrovnávají. Skutečné sny se střetávají s idealismem v příběhu otce, který se rozhodne postavit milenci své dcery, svému příteli a vrstevníkovi, v osudu starého zahradníka, který na svých bedrech nese celou tíži tohoto světa, nebo v líčení ženy, jež své sokyni píše mučivě zvrácené dopisy. Ozovo brilantní literární mistrovství je tu opět hluboce lidské, empatické a zároveň kritické k dějinám i společnosti.

Oz v ní vytvořil své nejlepší a také nejosobnější dílo, které spojuje rodinnou ságu se vznikem židovského státu. V tragických a dojemných epizodách se prolíná moderní historie a příběh dvanáctiletého chlapce, jenž se vyrovnává s osudovou ranou v podobě matčiny sebevraždy a posléze opouští domov, aby v prostředí kibucu nastoupil svízelnou cestu samostatného života a uměleckého zrání. Příběh spisovatele, který se stal aktivním hybatelem politického života svého národa, je zároveň jedinečným dokumentem o jednotlivci uprostřed velkých dějin.

If you are going to care for someone, you must first understand them. If you're going to hire, marry, or befriend someone, you have to be able to see them. If you are going to work closely with someone, you have to be able to make them feel recognized and valued.As David Brooks observes, "The older I get, the more I come to the certainty that there is one skill at the center of any healthy family, company, classroom, community or nation: the ability to see each other, to know other people, to make them feel valued, heard and understood."And yet we humans don't do this well. All around us are people who feel invisible, unseen, misunderstood. In How to Know a Person, Brooks sets out to help us to do better, posing questions that are essential for all of us.Driven by his trademark sense of curiosity, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscience, and from the worlds of theatre, history, and education, to present a welcoming, hopeful, integrated approach to human connection. How to Know a Person helps readers become more understanding and considerate towards others; it helps readers find the joy that comes from being seen. ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Drawing on a wide body of research, including extensive in-depth interviews, THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO KNOW reveals the central insights that lie at the core of: Great Managing, Great Leadership and Great Careers. Buckingham uses a wealth of relevant examples to reveal that at the heart of each insight lies a controlling insight. Lose sight of this ''one thing'' and all of your best efforts at managing, leading, or individual achievement will be diminished. For great managing, the controlling insight has less to do with fairness, or team building, or clear expectations (although all are important). Rather, the one thing great managers know is the need to discover and then capitalize on what is unique about each person. For leadership, the controlling insight is the opposite - discover and capitalize on what is universal to all your people, regardless of differences in personality, race, sex, or age. For sustained individual success, the controlling insight is the need to discover what you don''t like doing, and know how and when to stop doing it. In every way a groundbreaking work, THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO KNOW offers crucial performance and career lessons for business people at every level.
