Audiokniha: Jestli k vám tenhle příběh přichází ve správném okamžiku vašeho života, pak jste získali o hodně víc než jen audioknihu! Světoznámá knížka přeložená do více než dvaceti jazyků vypráví o tom, jak zásadní životní lekci může člověk dostat, když se setká se svým bývalým profesorem. Americký spisovatel Mitch Albom ve své knize vypráví příběh, který skutečně prožil. Po dvaceti letech se znovu setkal se svým bývalým profesorem Morriem Schwartzem, který mu pomohl začít vnímat svět z jiného úhlu, než byl Mitch dosud zvyk¬lý. Z jejich pravidelných úterních setkání se stává jejich poslední společný semestr o životě a smrti. Profesor totiž onemocněl amytrofickou laterální sklerózou. Kniha poukazuje na to, že smysl lidské existence se člověku často vyjevuje teprve tváří v tvář konečnosti lidského bytí a stala se předlohou stejnojmenného filmu z roku 1999 s Jackem Lemmonem a Hankem Azzariou v hlavních rolích.

Poté co nacisté obsadili jeho domov v řecké Salonice, vyhlédl si tohoto důvěřivého chlapce jeden německý důstojník, který mu nabídl šanci zachránit svoji rodinu. Stačilo, aby Nico přesvědčil ostatní členy své židovské komunity nastoupit do vlaků směřujících „na sever“, kde na ně čeká nová práce a bezpečí. Nevěda, že se jedná o krutou lest, nevinný hoch den co den ujišťoval cestující na nástupišti, že se nemají čeho bát.Ovšem při odbavení posledního vlaku Nico viděl, jak do dobytčáku ženou i jeho rodinu. Teprve poté zjistil, že pomohl odeslat své příbuzné – a všechny další, které znal a měl rád – do koncentračního tábora v Osvětimi. Nicovi se podařilo utéct – ale pak už nikdy nemluvil pravdu.V románu Malý lhář zkoumá Mitch Albom následky klamu a zrady v prolínajících se příbězích Nica, z něhož se stane patologický lhář, jeho staršího bratra Sebastiana, který je odhodlán se mu pomstít, Fannie, dívky, která si mezi oběma bratry musí vybrat, a Uda Grafa, nacistického důstojníka, který svým lhaním všem třem zamotal život.

V nejnovějším románu Mitche Alboma je vynálezce prvních světových hodin potrestán za to, že se pokoušel měřit nejúžasnější Boží dar - čas. Je vyhoštěn na staletí do jeskyně a přinucen naslouchat hlasem všech, kteří ho léta hledali. Nakonec, když byla jeho duše skoro zlomená, Otec čas mu udělil svobodu, spolu s magickými přesýpacími hodinami a posláním: příležitostí splatit svůj dluh tím, že naučí dvou pozemských lidí skutečnému významu času. Zatímco počítání času začalo tak nevinně, dnes už dominuje v našich životech a nevíme si bez něj představit jediný den. Vynálezce se vrací právě do našeho světa a začíná svou cestu za vlastní záchranou se dvěma rozdílnými partnery: jedním je dospívající dívka, která si chce vzít život, přičemž druhým je vlivný starý obchodník, který chce žít navěky.

In 1986, Paul Newman and his closest friend, screenwriter Stewart Stern, began an extraordinary project. Stuart was to compile an oral history, to have Newman’s family and friends and those who worked closely with him, talk about the actor’s life. And then Newman would work with Stewart and give his side of the story. The only stipulation was that anyone who spoke on the record had to be completely honest. That same stipulation applied to Newman himself. The project lasted five years. The result is an extraordinary memoir, culled from thousands of pages of transcripts. The book is insightful, revealing, surprising. Newman’s voice is powerful, sometimes funny, sometimes painful, always meeting that high standard of searing honesty. The additional voices—from childhood friends and Navy buddies, from family members and film and theater collaborators such as Tom Cruise, George Roy Hill, Martin Ritt, and John Huston—that run throughout add richness and color and context to the story Newman is telling. Newman’s often traumatic childhood is brilliantly detailed. He talks about his teenage insecurities, his early failures with women, his rise to stardom, his early rivals (Marlon Brando and James Dean), his first marriage, his drinking, his philanthropy, the death of his ...

Octogenarian Anthony Smith''s journey was originally inspired by both the Kontiki Expedition of Thor Heyerdahl (who he knew) and the incredible story of the survivors of a 1940 boat disaster, who spent 70 days adrift in the Atlantic, eventually reaching land emaciated and close to death. While this might sound like a voyage no-one would wish to emulate, to octogenarian Anthony Smith it sounded like an adventure, and he placed a typically straightforward advertisement in the Telegraph that read "Fancy rafting across the Atlantic? Famous traveller requires 3 crew. Must be OAP. Serious adventurers only." In his inimitable style, Smith details their voyage and the hardships they endured with a matter-of-fact air that makes his story seem all the more impressive. His advanced age allows him a wider perspective not only on the journey but on life itself, and his never-say-die attitude to the difficulty of the journey is inspirational. ''Old men ought to be explorers'' said T.S. Eliot, and this book certainly gives a compelling argument in his favour. It is both a great story (a huge storm on the final night of the voyage almost wrecked them on a reef) and a call to action for the older ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Now a major film starring Ryan Gosling, Claire Foy and Kyle Chandler, directed by Oscar-winner Damien Chazelle, First Man by James Hansen offers the only authorized glimpse into the life of America’s most famous astronaut, Neil Armstrong – the man whose “one small step” changed history. In First Man, Hansen explores the life of Neil Armstrong. Based on over 50 hours of interviews with the intensely private Armstrong, who also gave Hansen exclusive access to private documents and family sources, this “magnificent panorama of the second half of the American twentieth century” (Publishers Weekly, Starred Review) is an unparalleled biography of an American icon. When Apollo 11 touched down on the moon’s surface in 1969, the first man on the moon became a legend. Hansen vividly recreates Armstrong's career in flying, from his seventy-eight combat missions as a naval aviator flying over North Korea to his formative transatmospheric flights in the rocket-powered X-15 to his piloting Gemini VIII to the first-ever docking in space. For a pilot who cared more about flying to the Moon than he did about walking on it, Hansen asserts, Armstrong's storied vocation exacted a dear personal toll, paid in kind by his wife and children. ...
