Fredrick Backman, «el Dickens de nuestro tiempo» según el Green Valley News, regresa al pueblo de Beartown en esta emocionante, divertida y, a ratos, dramática novela sobre la lealtad y la amistad. Perdido en lo más profundo del bosque, Beartown es un pequeño pueblo de gente que trabaja duro sin esperar que la vida sea fácil ni justa. Su único anhelo es mantener la reputación de su club de hockey sobre hielo. Por eso, cuando un evento inesperado sitúa el club al borde de la desaparición, todos quedan devastados. Y, por si fuera poco, la mitad de los jugadores de Beartown se une al equipo de Hed, el pueblo vecino, y la animosidad entre los dos eternos rivales se intensifica.En­tonces, alguien llega a Beartown para salvar el equipo. Pronto, el equipo empieza a tomar forma alrededor de Amat, el jugador más rápido que se haya visto; Benji, el intenso lobo solitario; el solícito y complaciente Bobo; y Vidar, el problemático nacido para ser un mal muchacho.Sin embargo, poco antes del partido decisivo, una terrible tragedia conmocionará a ambos pueblos y obligará a sus habitantes a preguntarse si, después de todo, el deporte que tanto aman volverá algún día a ser ...

Esta quisquillosa mujer se verá envuelta en la vida de sus nuevos vecinos, un grupo de malhechores, borrachos y holgazanes que le demostrarán que la vida va más allá de tener un cajón de los cubiertos ordenado.Pero su reto más grande aún está por venir: se enfrentará a la imposible tarea de entrenar al equipo de fútbol juvenil del pueblo para alzarse con la copa que se jugará en pocos días. ¿Podrá Britt-Marie encontrar por fin su lugar en el mundo en este pueblo de inadaptados?FREDRIK BACKMAN es autor de nueve libros, entre ellos el bestseller internacional Un hombre llamado Ove, cuya versión cinematográfica fue candidata a dos Óscar.

Audiokniha: Nášup emocí od autora, který vás rozveselil i rozplakal romány Muž jménem Ove (Nejlepší audiokniha roku 2014) a Babička pozdravuje a omlouvá se. O třiašedesátileté Britt-Marii někteří tvrdí, že je pasivně agresivní, zpomalená a ukňouraná bába. Když po čtyřiceti letech manželství opustí nevěrného manžela, usadí se ve vesnici Borg, v níž po finanční krizi zůstaly jen cedule s nápisem „Na prodej“ a pizzerie, která je cítit pivem. A fotbal. A také fotbalová přípravka, která nutně potřebuje trenéra. Britt-Marie fotbal nesnáší. V zoufalé situaci však detaily typu ‒ vybraná osoba tu práci opravdu, ale opravdu nechce ‒ nehrají žádnou roli. Stejně jako nehrají roli případné předsudky (ne že by Britt-Marie nějaké měla, to samozřejmě ne). Příběh o druhých šancích, prvních výkopech a o tom, že soda vyčistí skoro všechno.

Audiokniha: Závěrečný díl trilogie z hokejového městečka Medvědín. Po tragických událostech, o kterých nikdo nechce mluvit, udělala medvědínská komunita to, co vždycky – všichni sklonili hlavy a pokusili se jít dál. Po dvou letech se dokonce zdá, že se městu podařilo zacelit dávné rány. U jezera vyrostlo nové hokejové kluziště, Maya Anderssonová a Benji Ovich se vracejí domů a jejich shledání se starými známými je plné radosti a optimismu. Jenže pod povrchem se pořád skrývá něco, co Medvědínu brání posunout se dál. Někdejší rivalita se sousedním Hedem nikam nezmizela, a i když se dříve dařilo spory mezi městečky vyřešit v hokejových kláních, nyní se blíží cosi zlověstného. Napětí mezi komunitami roste a je jen otázkou času, kdy násilí přeroste úměrnou mez. Kdy nenávist vzburcuje k činu. A kdy někdo popadne zbraň a zamíří s ní ke stadionu… Švédský spisovatel Fredrick Backman zakončuje svou sérii ve velkolepém stylu a opět nenechá čtenáře vydechnout. „Backmanovou největší předností je dokonalé pochopení složitosti lidské duše. Jeho postavy jsou plnokrevné charaktery, pro něž máme pochopení a s nimiž soucítíme i v okamžiku, kdy provedou něco zavrženíhodného. Soudit je totiž náramně jednoduché, ale snažit se pochopit a odpustit dá mnohem větší práci.“ – Jindřich Göth, Novinky.cz. ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Vrávoravý pokus otce vysvětlit dvouletému synovi, jak funguje svět. Fredrik Backman vtipně stírá všechny úzkosti a nedostatky rodičů jednadvacátého století v půvabné knize plné poctivých obav a nepodmíněných vyznání lásky, která zasáhnou čtenářovo srdce. Mému synovi. Už teď tě prosím o prominutí. Za všechno, co udělám špatně. Za všechno, k čemu se nedostanu. Za minibus. Za šortky. Za tričko "Toto krásné tělo vytvořilo pivo". Za snahu dát si "high-five" s tvými kamarády. Za tuhle knihu. Knihu o věcech, které si myslím, že bys měl vědět o světě. O fotbalu, IKEA, o tom, jaké je být mužem, o Bohu a smažené zmrzlině Snickers. O tom, jaké je to ztratit klíče od auta a proč musel taťka zabít zpívající plastovou žirafu. Většina této knihy je o snaze být dobrým rodičem. Protože chci, abys věděl, že jsem vážně udělal to nejlepší, co jsem mohl. Nikdo negoogloval tolik jako já.

Malý Noah s dědou chodí sedávat na lavičku a povídají si. Pod lavičkou rostou hyacinty, stejné, jaké děda kdysi pěstoval pro babičku. Děda s Noahem si můžou povídat úplně o všem. O všech otázkách spojených se životem a vesmírem, závažných i nicotných. Při rozhovorech s vnukem si děda vždycky vzpomene, jak se zamiloval do babičky a jak o ni ve stáří přišel. Zatím ji pořád vidí před sebou a děsí se dne, kdy si ji už nebude moci vybavit. Cítí, že jeho svět se mění. Proto by rád zůstal s Noahem na lavičce, kde je stále ještě obklopuje pronikavá vůně hyacintů. Jenže zachytit vzpomínky je čím dál těžší a oba se musejí naučit tomu vůbec nejtěžšímu: umění se rozloučit. Fredrik Backman v této netypické novele líčí boj stárnoucího muže o zachování nejdražších vzpomínek. Činí tak něžně a empaticky, jak to dovede jen on.

Je noc před Štědrým dnem a nemocniční chodbou kráčí žena v šedém, aby si odvedla jednoho z nás. Má s sebou desky se jmény nás všech: pětileté holčičky trpící rakovinou, která maluje svou oblíbenou židličku na červeno, dvacetiletého mladíka leštícího pivní sklenici v milované hospodě, pětačtyřicetiletého muže, který uhání tmou v drahém autě a hledá, do čeho by narazil. Někdo z nás dnes přijde o život, pokud se někdo jiný dobrovolně nevzdá toho svého. Ale nestačí pouze zemřít, protože život není jen to, co právě končí. Život je všechno to, co se stalo předtím. Fredrik Backman umí mistrně vylíčit lidské pochyby a vnitřní démony, aniž ztrácí smysl pro humor. Toto vyprávění je mnohem smutnější než třeba Dickensova Vánoční koleda, ale i zde najdeme naději a možnost všechno napravit - i když za velmi vysokou cenu.

Generace největších egoistů v dějinách lidstva si pořídila děti a uvědomila si, že je vlastně bezvýznamná. Jak jinak vyléčit všemožné úzkosti a nedostatky rodičů jednadvacátého století, než je shrnout do jedné výpovědi plné upřímných obav, prozrazených (či očekávaných) trapasů, rodinných i osobních historek a nepodmíněných vyznání lásky?

It is Christmas Eve and a father and son are meeting for the first time in years. The father has a story he needs to share before it's too late. As he tells his son about a courageous little girl lying in a hospital bed a few miles away, he reveals even more about himself; his triumphs in business, his failures as a parent, his past regrets, his hopes for the future. Now, on this night before Christmas, the father has been given the unexpected chance to do something remarkable that could change the destiny of a little girl he hardly knows. But before he can make the deal of a lifetime, he must find out what his own life has actually been worth, and only his son can reveal the answer. With humour and compassion, Fredrik Backman's novella The Deal of a Lifetime reminds us that life is a fleeting gift, and our legacies rest in how we share that gift with those we love.

The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can’t fix their own marriage. There’s a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can’t seem to agree on anything. Add to the mix an eighty-seven-year-old woman who has lived long enough not to be afraid of someone waving a gun in her face, a flustered but still-ready-to-make-a-deal real estate agent, and a mystery man who has locked himself in the apartment’s only bathroom, and you’ve got the worst group of hostages in the world. Each of them carries a lifetime of grievances, hurts, secrets, and passions that are ready to boil over. None ... Unknown localization key: "more"

It is a must-read'' Roxane Gay''A book to make you stop and think'' Mishal Husain''This book is going to light fires everywhere, so if you are prone to combust, get right the hell out of the way'' Lit HubMost of us believe that feminism is a force for good. In the past 200 years, it has paved the way for women to advance economically, increasing their safety and their power in society, and advocating for their needs and experiences. But not for all women.If you are poor, if you are an immigrant to the West or (even worse) don''t live here at all, and above all if your skin is not white, the door to mainstream feminism has been shut against you from day one. This is not oversight or an accident. It is an active and sustained strategy to advance white women at the expense of everyone else.

This hands-on guide from Mel Robbins, one of America’s top relationship experts and radio/tv personalities, addresses why over 100 million Americans secretly feel frustrated and bored with their lives and reveals what you can do about it. Mel Robbins has spent her career teaching people how to push past their self-imposed limits to get what they truly desire. She has an in-depth understanding of the psychological and social factors that repeatedly hold you back, and more important, a unique set of tools for getting you where you want to be. In Stop Saying You’re Fine, she draws on neuroscientific research, interviews with countless everyday people, and ideas she’s tested in her own life to show what works and what doesn’t. The key, she explains, is understanding how your own brain works against you. Because evolution has biased your mental gears against taking action, what you need are techniques to outsmart yourself.  That may sound impossible, but Mel has created a remarkably effective method to help you do just that--and some of her discoveries will astonish you. By ignoring how you feel and seizing small moments of rich possibility--a process she calls “leaning in”--you can make tiny course directions add ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Rhetoric gives our words the power to inspire. But it''s not just for politicians: it''s all around us, whether you''re buttering up a key client or persuading your children to eat their greens. You have been using rhetoric yourself, all your life. After all, you know what a rhetorical question is, don''t you?In this updated edition of his classic guide, Sam Leith traces the art of argument from ancient Greece down to its many modern mutations. He introduces verbal villains from Hitler to Donald Trump - and the three musketeers: ethos, pathos and logos. He explains how rhetoric works in speeches from Cicero to Richard Nixon, and pays tribute to the rhetorical brilliance of AC/DC''s "Back In Black". Before you know it, you''ll be confident in chiasmus and proud of your panegyrics - because rhetoric is useful, relevant and absolutely nothing to be afraid of.

An urgent, compact manifesto that will teach you how to protect your rights, your freedom, and your future when talking to police.Law professor James J. Duane became a viral sensation thanks to a 2008 lecture outlining the reasons why you should never agree to answer questions from the police—especially if you are innocent and wish to stay out of trouble with the law. In this timely, relevant, and pragmatic new book, he expands on that presentation, offering a vigorous defense of every citizen’s constitutionally protected right to avoid self-incrimination. Getting a lawyer is not only the best policy, Professor Duane argues, it’s also the advice law-enforcement professionals give their own kids.Using actual case histories of innocent men and women exonerated after decades in prison because of information they voluntarily gave to police, Professor Duane demonstrates the critical importance of a constitutional right not well or widely understood by the average American. Reflecting the most recent attitudes of the Supreme Court, Professor Duane argues that it is now even easier for police to use your own words against you. This lively and informative guide explains what everyone needs to know to protect themselves and those they love.
