Graham Greene (1904-1991) byl významný britský romanopisec 20. století. Psal také povídky, eseje, divadelní hry, scénáře, literární a filmové kritiky. Nějaký čas pracoval jako novinář a po určitou dobu byl dokonce zaměstnancem ministerstva zahraničí a agentem britské tajné služby. Jeho příběhy kombinují epiku s morálními a náboženskými otázkami z neortodoxně katolické perspektivy. Témata jeho děl mají společného jmenovatele v hlubokém, věčně pochybujícím, především však v osvobozujícím básnickém pohledu na člověka z hlediska spisovatelova základního atributu lidství – svědomí. Proto je též označován jako Dostojevský 20. století.

Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes and the Amateur Emigrant - Robert Louis Stevenson

In 1878, Robert Louis Stevenson was suffering from poor health, struggling to survive on the income derived from his writings, and tormented by his infatuation with Fanny Osbourne, a married American woman. His response was to embark on a journey through the Cevennes with a donkey, Modestine, and a notebook, which he later transformed into Travels with a Donkey. Just a few months after publication, Stevenson was off again - this time crossing the Atlantic and the breadth of America in the hope of being re-united with Fanny, an experience he recorded in The Amateur Emigrant. Both pieces are classics of travel writings, which reveal as much about Stevenson''s character as the landscape he travels through.

Travels With Boogie - Mark Wallington

And they did it. Then, undaunted, they took on the treacherous waters of the Thames. Not exactly as Mark had planned, however: this time his companion was to be the delectable Jennifer - but she was held up at the office, and when Boogie was dropped off at the kennels the other dogs complained.Travels with Boogie is a witty and fascinating account of a mismatched couple and of the people they meet and places they visit.

Úniky - Graham Greene

Mistrně sepsané paměti pokrývají období let 1929 až 1978. Greene se v nich věnuje především literární tvorbě a cestám, okolnostem a motivům, které vedly k napsání jeho románů, povídek a divadelních her. Obšírně se rozepisuje o cestách a zážitcích, které ho inspirovaly k jeho dílům, a nabízí postřehy, úsudky a myšlenky, a také záznamy ze svých deníků. Greene vzpomíná mimo jiné na Vietnam, Haiti, Paraguay, Malajsko, Keňu, ale i na Polsko za stalinismu v padesátých letech nebo na Prahu, kterou navštívil v době komunistického puče v únoru 1948. Odhaluje také určité detaily svého působení u britské tajné služby a vyjadřuje se k politické situaci; politika hrála v Greeneově díle stále významnější roli. Stejně jako jeho romány, i tyto vzpomínky jsou psány vytříbeným a poutavým jazykem, jakým dnes vládne jen pramálo spisovatelů.

Travels with Herodotus - Ryszard Kapuściński

Travels with Herodotus records how Kapuscinski set out on his first forays – to India, China and Africa – with the great Greek historian constantly in his pocket. He sees Louis Armstrong in Khartoum, visits Dar-es-Salaam, arrives in Algiers in time for a coup when nothing seems to happen (but he sees the Mediterranean for the first time). At every encounter with a new culture, Kapuscinski plunges in, curious and observant, thirsting to understand its history, its thought, its people. And he reads Herodotus so much that he often feels he is embarking on two journeys – the first his assignment as a reporter, the second following Herodotus’ expeditions.

Travels with Plotinus - Moin Mir

In Travels with Plotinus, Moin Mir follows Plotinus’s 1,780-year-old journey of personal discovery across India, Egypt, Italy, Greece and Turkey as he tries to understand the core concept of Plotinian thought, derived from studying the Upanishads – ‘Unity and Oneness’. He uses Plotinus’s philosophy to observe how the free will of intellect uses ‘Unity’ for good and evil. Intimate conversations with refugees escaping war, innocent boatmen drifting down the Nile, simple farmers and monks in Greece along with observations of ancient art and modern technological accomplishments inform his thoughts and writing on the concept of the oneness of humankind – its immense power to bring good and yet its vulnerability to the stealth of intellect to destroy and self-destruct.

Moc a sláva - Graham Greene - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Děje se v Mexiku v první třetině 20. století, v době tvrdého pronásledování katolické církve. Kostely jsou zavřeny, biskupové a kněží vyhnáni nebo popraveni. Sloužení mše a udělování svátostí se stávají hrdelním zločinem. Před revoluční mocí prchá poslední kněz. Nejen geografické a historické souřadnice, ale i mnohé postavy tohoto románu mají reálný podklad. V roce 1938 odcestoval Greene do Mexika, aby zde nasbíral materiál pro knihu o pronásledování katolické církve. Za neuvěřitelných útrap procestoval několik mexických států; dva z nich, Tabasco a Chiapas, se pak stávají dějištěm románu Moc a sláva. Poslední kněz v zemi, prchající před revoluční mocí, má k obrazu mučedníka za církev hodně daleko: pije, hřeší snad proti všem přikázáním včetně šestého, bojí se smrti a bolesti. Jeho protihráč, představitel revoluční moci, je naopak silný, nepochybuje o sobě ani o své pravdě a za jejím prosazením jde doslova přes mrtvoly. Jejich "hra" na život a smrt udržuje napětí od první do poslední kapitoly.

Vyhaslý případ - Graham Greene

Greenovo "srdce temnoty" z roku 1961 rozehrává věčná témata svatosti, povolání, lásky, víry a zoufalství s mistrovstvím, pro něž bývá právem nazýván Dostojevským dvacátého století. V autobiografické knize Úniky (Kalich 2006) Greene v souvislosti s Vyhaslým případem píše: "Představa víry jako poklidného moře byla navždy tatam - víra byla spíše jako bouře, ve které byli ti šťastní pohlceni a ztraceni, zatímco ti, co neměli štěstí, přežili a byli s ranami a krvácejícími šrámy vyvrženi na břeh. Lepší člověk si na okraji tohoto krutého moře mohl najít práci na celý život, ale mně můj vlastní průběh života neskýtal žádnou sebedůvěru, abych mohl nabízet nějakou pomoc. Neměl jsem žádné apoštolské poslání a volání po duchovní pomoci mě přivádělo k šílenství z vlastní neschopnosti. K čemu jinému byla církev než ku pomoci těmto trpícím?… Byl jsem jako člověk bez lékařských znalostí na vsi, kterou postihl mor. Myslím, že Querry se zrodil právě v těchto letech. Často sedával v mém křesle a měl nejednu tvář."

A marvel of a collection that engages the eye and mind as much as the ear and heart'' Raymond AntrobusYesterday I slung my depression on my back and went to the museum.

From afar, it was a large white square.WITH MY BACK TO THE WORLD engages with the paintings and writings of Agnes Martin, the celebrated abstract modern artist, in ways that open up new modes of expression, expanding the scope of what art, poetry, and the human mind can do. Filled with surprise and insight, wit and profundity, the book explores the nature of the self, of existence, life and death, grief and depression, time and space. Strikingly original, fluidly strange, Victoria Chang''s new collection is a book that speaks to how we see and are seen.

Travels with Charley - John Steinbeck

In 1960, John Steinbeck set out in his pick-up truck with his dog Charley to rediscover and chronicle his native USA, from Maine to California.He felt that he might have lost touch with its sights, sounds and the essence of the American people. Moving through the woods and deserts, dirt tracks and highways to large cities and glorious wildernesses, Steinbeck observed - with remarkable honesty, insight and a humorous eye - the gamut of America and the people who inhabited it.His 10,000-mile journey took him through almost forty states, where he saw things that made him proud, angry, sympathetic and elated. A rugged and passionate adventure of self-identity, Steinbeck''s vision of the changing world still speaks to us prophetically through the decades.''Delightful. This is a book to be read slowly for its savor.'' The Atlantic

A. Milne, and became a perennial Christmas favourite, as Toad of Toad Hall. It continues to enchant and, above all perhaps, inspire great affection.

Travels with Myself and Another - Martha Gellhorn

Out of a lifetime of travelling, Martha Gellhorn has selected her "best horror journeys". She bumps through rain-sodden, war-torn China to meet Chiang Kai-Shek, floats listlessly in search of u-boats in the wartime Caribbean and visits a dissident writer in the Soviet Union against her better judgement. Written with the eye of a novelist and an ironic black humour, what makes these tales irresistible are Gellhorn's explosive and often surprising reactions. Indignant, but never righteous and not always right, through the crucible of hell on earth emerges a woman who makes you laugh with her at life, while thanking God that you are not with her.
