ENGLAND MUST FALL.In the near future, a disaffected civil servant is offered a lucrative job in a mysterious new government ministry gathering 'expats' from across history to test the limits of time-travel. Her role is to work as a 'bridge': living with, assisting and monitoring the expat known as '1847' - Commander Graham Gore. As far as history is concerned, Commander Gore died on Sir John Franklin's doomed expedition to the Arctic, so he's a little disoriented to find himself alive and surrounded by outlandish concepts such as 'washing machine', 'Spotify' and 'the collapse of the British Empire'.With an appetite for discovery and a seven-a-day cigarette habit, he soon adjusts; and during a long, sultry summer he and his bridge move from awkwardness to genuine friendship, to something more.

Vyhnanství! Tak dvanáctiletá Flavia de Luce běduje nad svým údělem, když ji otec s tetou Felicity odešlou do internátní školy. Nestráví zde ani den a dostane dárek. A protože je nadaná chemička a pátračka, není jím nic jiného než vyuzená mumifikovaná mrtvola, která vypadla z komína v její ložnici. A tak Flavia chodí na vyučování, dělá si přátele (a nepřátele) a snaží se odhadnout přísnou ředitelku i učitelský sbor (k němuž patří třeba vražedkyně zproštěná obvinění). Pátrá přitom po identitě oběti i po podezřelých a motivech. Proslýchá se, že ve škole straší a několik dívek dokonce zmizelo. Ovšem pokud jde o vyřešení více záhad najednou, je Flavia ten správný člověk!

Jedenáctiletou Flavii de Luce, hrdinku originálních, vtipných detektivních příběhů, nudí život s otcem a nemilovanými sestrami na venkovském sídle. O to víc ji od malička fascinují chemie, jedy a smrt. Na místním hřbitově se náhodně setká s plačící dívkou jménem Nialla a to jí umožní nahlédnout za oponu dění v loutkoherecké skupině slavného Ruperta Porsona. Schyluje se k představení inscenace pohádky Jakub a fazole. Ale taky k zločinu. A z minulosti se vynoří jedna místní tragédie…V nakladatelství Euromedia kromě Vražda není hra vyšly i další detektivní příběhy Flavie de Luce: Koláč s kapkou jedu, Smrt v křišťálové kouli, Oblékni se pro smrt a Poslední tóny z krypty a k vydání v roce 2020 se připravuje The Dead in Their Vaulted Arches.

Největší vášní jedenáctileté Flavie de Luce, dcery britského aristokrata, je chemie – a brzy bude mít příležitost uplatnit své poznatky (zvláště o jedech) při vyšetřování zločinu. Jednoho dne najdou de Luceovi přede dveřmi svého domu mrtvého ptáka s poštovní známkou v zobáku, což Flaviina otce filatelistu velmi rozruší. Nedlouho poté objeví dívenka na zahradě umírajícího muže. Z vraždy je obviněn Flaviin otec a Flavie začne vyšetřovat na vlastní pěst. Zdá se, že současný zločin nějak souvisí s dávnou děsivou smrtí jednoho z otcových učitelů… Malá, ale inteligentní a odvážná vypravěčka nás s nadhledem a často překvapivě pronikavou ironií zavede do prostředí anglického venkova 50. let minulého století. Koláč s kapkou jedu připomíná klasická díla anglické detektivní školy a ocení ho nepochybně každý milovník napínavých příběhů bez rozdílu věku.

THE NO. 1 BESTSELLERIn his hotly anticipated autobiography, Johnny Sexton tells the story of his life and explores the sources of his unmatched will to win. 'Sexton will go down as Ireland's greatest ever player' Gordon D'Arcy, Irish Times___________________Four European Cups. Four Six Nations championships (including two Grand Slams). A series win in New Zealand. Two stints for Ireland at number 1 in the world. And the World Player of the Year award. No Irish rugby player has ever achieved more, or been a source of more inspiration to teammates and fans alike, than Johnny Sexton. Outspoken, on and off the field, Sexton offers an honest look at his childhood, his relationships with key teammates and coaches (including Brian O'Driscoll, Paul O'Connell, Ronan O'Gara, Joe Schmidt and Andy Farrell), and his ideas about the game. But it is also a work of deep self-exploration, tracing the psychological arc of a player who almost always felt embattled, who struggled with self-doubt, and who was still learning new lessons about being a team-mate and a leader into his late thirties. Intense, witty, perceptive and frank, Obsessed is an autobiography worthy of its author and the essential chronicle of an extraordinary era in Irish rugby. ___________________'The best ever Irish player to play the game' Andy Farrell‘Sexton is on that rarefied plane of athlete where even his mere presence can feel quietly decisive’ Jonathan Liew, Guardian‘An essential read for any keen follower of professional sport in Ireland’ Irish Independent‘A revealing glimpse into the psyche of a serial winner’ Robert Kitson, Guardian

Audiokniha: Největší vášní jedenáctileté Flavie de Luce, nejmladší dcery tragicky ovdovělého britského aristokrata, je chemie. Zatím ji využívá především k líčení pastí na své nepřátelsky naladěné starší sestry, avšak brzy bude mít příležitost uplatnit své poznatky – zvláště pak o jedech – při vyšetřování zločinu. Jednoho dne najdou de Luceovi přede dveřmi svého domu mrtvého ptáka s poštovní známkou v zobáku, což Flaviina otce filatelistu velmi rozruší. Nedlouho poté vyslechne dívenka noční hádku mezi otcem a tajemným návštěvníkem a časně ráno pak najde na zahradě umírajícího muže, který jí těsně před smrtí pošeptá „vale“. Z vraždy je obviněn Flaviin otec a Flavia začne vyšetřovat na vlastní pěst, aby očistila jméno rodiny. Záhy nabude podezření, že současný zločin patrně nějak souvisí s dávnou děsivou smrtí jednoho z otcových učitelů… Malá, ale inteligentní a odvážná vypravěčka nás s nadhledem a nezřídka překvapivě pronikavou ironií zavede do prostředí anglického venkova padesátých let minulého století. Koláč s kapkou jedu kráčí úspěšně ve šlépějích klasických děl britské detektivní školy a ocení ho nepochybně každý milovník napínavých příběhů, a to bez rozdílu věku. ALAN BRADLEY (1938) Torontský rodák, vyrůstal v Cobourgu v Ontariu. Než v roce 1994 odešel do předčasného důchodu, aby se mohl věnovat psaní, byl pětadvacet let ředitelem oddělení televizní techniky v mediálním centru Saskatchewanské univerzity. Napsal řadu scénářů, povídek pro děti i pro dospělé a nespočet článků o umění a životním stylu pro kanadská periodika. Je spoluautorem publikace Ms. Holmes of Baker Street, která vyvolala značný ohlas. Dva roky nato vydal memoáry pod názvem The Shoebox Bible. Celosvětově jej však proslavily až detektivky, v nichž vystupuje geniální mladá britská vyšetřovatelka Flavia de Luce. Za první z nich, Koláč s kapkou jedu, získal v roce 2007 cenu Debut Dagger Award udělovanou Asociací autorů detektivek a amazon.com ji zařadil mezi desítku nejúspěšnějších žánrových titulů roku. Série se dočkala pěti pokračování, vychází ve třiceti devíti zemích a práva na její televizní adaptaci zakoupil oscarový producent a režisér Sam Mendes (Americká krása, Skyfall).

Dílo postavené v centru jihomoravského veletržního a univerzitního města doprovází řada názvů. Hovoří se o něm jako o hodinovém multifunkčním stroji, stroji času nebo časostroji. V různých tiskových zprávách a článcích je však frekventovaný termín „orloj“. Je to správné? Z hlediska historického vývoje se substantivum orloj původně vztahovalo ke všem hodinám na budovách. Později se jednalo o středověké věžní hodiny, od nichž se očekávalo, že budou ukazovat aktuální čas a s ním postavení a vztah Slunce s Měsícem a dalšími nebeskými tělesy. Vždy šlo o důmyslně sestrojená zařízení, která zformovali lidé s kvalitními znalostmi matematiky, geometrie, astronomie a mechaniky. Jejich mimořádnost podtrhovalo také to, že společně s nimi se na nich podíleli vynikající umělci, kteří jim vtiskli jedinečný výraz. Výsledná práce pak získala nejen atributy výjimečného technického produktu, ale i hodnotného uměleckého díla, které přetrvalo staletí. Ze slavných českých a moravských příkladů stačí vzpomenout staroměstský orloj v Praze nebo orloj v Olomouci. Za pozornost stojí orloj v Litomyšli, menší orloj z Nové radnice v Prostějově či orloj z Uherského Brodu. Pro klasifikaci brněnského díla je významná skutečnost, že v kontextu podmínek určujících orloj není zastoupena astronomická složka. Je potřeba pochopit a přijmout, aby dosud v hovorovém jazyce vžitý název „orloj“ byl považován za nepřesný a nesprávný. Nový termín časostroj použil v jednom z televizních diskusních fór známý moderátor Václav Moravec. Z hlediska dikce spisovného jazyka českého se jedná o formu možnou, ale ne příliš frekventovanou. Podstatu díla nejlépe vyjadřuje označení hodinový stroj, který je také uplatněn na informačních tabulích na brněnském náměstí Svobody umístěných v jeho bezprostřední blízkosti. Termín hodinový stroj, s adjektivem „multifunkční“, můžeme přijmout proto, že mimo měření času má ještě další zajímavou funkci. Ta mu umožňuje, aby každý den prostřednictvím uvolněné skleněné kuličky připomněl jednu z důležitých a vážných kapitol brněnské historie. Nejspíše však vznikne jazyková ambivalence, kdy v hovorové češtině se sice nesprávně, ale široce bude název orloj používat. V oficiálních vyjádřeních, i v této knize, budeme důsledně používat termín „hodinový stroj“, který podstatu díla vystihuje nejlépe.

ALAN RICKMAN was one of the world-class actors of his generation, as well as a tireless political activist, an avid traveller and a devoted confidant and friend. Through his never-before-seen diaries - a twenty-five-year passion project - Rickman invites readers backstage and into his life. Alan Rickman remains one of the most beloved actors of all time across almost every genre, from his breakout role as Die Hard's villainous Hans Gruber to his heart-wrenching run as Professor Severus Snape, and beyond. His air of dignity, his sonorous voice and the knowing wit he brought to each role continue to captivate new audiences today. But Rickman's artistry wasn't confined to just his performances. Rickman's writing details the extraordinary and the ordinary in a way that is anecdotal, indiscreet, witty, gossipy and utterly candid. He takes us behind the scenes on films and plays ranging from Sense & Sensibility, the Harry Potter series, Private Lives, My Name is Rachel Corrie and many more.The diaries run from 1993 to his death in 2016 and offer insight into both a public and private life. Here is Rickman the consummate professional actor, but also the friend, the traveller, the fan, the director, the enthusiast: in short, the real Alan Rickman. Here is a life fully lived, all detailed in intimate and characteristically plain-spoken prose. Reading the diaries is like listening to Rickman chatting to a close friend. Madly, Deeply also includes a foreword by Emma Thompson and a selection of Rickman's early diaries, dating from 1974 to 1982, when his acting life first began.

And, with each detour, she brushes up against the seemingly disparate lives of the city-dwellers, connecting them in unexpected ways. But the city is changing. As it does, it pushes her to the margins where she chances upon a series of apparent strangers - from a homeless man squatting in an abandoned hotel, to a shut-in hermit afraid to leave his house, to a convenience store worker searching for love.

An extraordinary collection of lyrics showcasing rap's poetic depth and diversityFrom the school yards of the South Bronx to the tops of the Billboard charts, rap has emerged as one of the most influential musical and cultural forces of our time. In The Anthology of Rap, editors Adam Bradley and Andrew DuBois explore rap as a literary form, demonstrating that rap is also a wide-reaching and vital poetic tradition born of beats and rhymes.This pioneering anthology brings together more than three hundred rap and hip-hop lyrics written over thirty years, from the "old school" to the "golden age" to the present day. Rather than aim for encyclopedic coverage, Bradley and DuBois render through examples the richness and diversity of rap's poetic tradition. They feature both classic lyrics that helped define the genre, including Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five's "The Message" and Eric B. & Rakim's "Microphone Fiend," as well as lesser-known gems like Blackalicious's "Alphabet Aerobics" and Jean Grae's "Hater's Anthem."Both a fan's guide and a resource for the uninitiated, The Anthology of Rap showcases the inventiveness and vitality of rap's lyrical art. The volume also features an overview of rap poetics and the forces that shaped each period in rap's historical development, as well as a foreword by Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and afterwords by Chuck D and Common. Enter the Anthology to experience the full range of rap's artistry and discover a rich poetic tradition hiding in plain sight.

''I believe that the discoveries in this book can change our understanding of how we store emotional experiences and in so doing, change our lives. The Emotion Code has already changed many lives around the world, and it is my hope that millions more will be led to use this simple tool to heal themselves and their loved ones.'' - Tony RobbinsIn this newly revised and expanded edition of The Emotion Code, renowned holistic physician and lecturer Dr. Bradley Nelson skilfully lays bare the inner workings of the subconscious mind. He reveals how emotionally-charged events from your past can still be haunting you in the form of ''trapped emotions'' - emotional energies that literally inhabit your body. These trapped emotions can fester in your life and body, creating pain, malfunction and eventual disease. They can also extract a heavy mental and emotional toll on you, impacting how you think, the choices that you make, and the level of success and abundance you are able to achieve. Perhaps most damaging of all, trapped emotional energies can gather around your heart, cutting off your ability to give and receive love.The Emotion Code is a powerful and simple way to rid yourself of this unseen baggage. Dr. Nelson''s method gives you the tools to identify and release the trapped emotions in your life, eliminating your ''emotional baggage'', and opening your heart and body to the positive energies of the world. Filled with real-world examples from many years of clinical practice, The Emotion Code is a distinct and authoritative work that has become a classic on self-healing.

The man to whom she is still married is denying her access to her children, and while the legalisation of divorce might be just around the corner, Colette finds herself caught between her old life and the freedom for which she risked everything. Desperate to see her children, she enlists the help of Izzy, a housewife and mother of two, and the women forge a friendship that will send them on a spiralling journey – one toward a path of self-discovery, and the other toward tragedy.Brilliantly observed from a sharp new literary talent, The Coast Road is a novel about a closed community and the consequences of daring to move against the tide.

In October 1940, the handsome young David Sparsholt arrives in Oxford. A keen athlete and oarsman, he at first seems unaware of the effect he has on others - particularly on the lonely and romantic Evert Dax, son of a celebrated novelist and destined to become a writer himself. While the Blitz rages in London, Oxford exists at a strange remove: an ephemeral, uncertain place, in which nightly blackouts conceal secret liaisons. Over the course of one momentous term, David and Evert forge an unlikely friendship that will colour their lives for decades to come . . .Alan Hollinghurst's masterly new novel evokes the intimate relationships of a group of friends bound together by art, literature and love across three generations.

Called a 'riveting study' by the Daily Telegraph and 'a compelling tale' by the Economist, The Red Hotel tells the story of forgotten correspondents and translators in Stalin's Russia and the gilded cage of the Metropol Hotel. Reporters. Translators. Lovers. Spies. In THE RED HOTEL: THE UNTOLD STORY OF STALIN'S PROPAGANDA WAR, former Daily Telegraph Foreign Editor and Russia expert Alan Philps sets out the way Stalin created his own reality by constraining and muzzling the British and American reporters covering the Eastern front during the war and forcing them to reproduce Kremlin propaganda. War correspondents were both bullied and pampered in the gilded cage of the Metropol Hotel. They enjoyed lavish supplies of caviar and had their choice of young women to employ as translators and to share their beds.While some of these translators turned journalists into robotic conveyors of Kremlin propaganda, others were brave secret dissenters who whispered to reporters the reality of Soviet life and were punished with sentences in the Gulag. Through the use of British archives and Russian sources, the story of the role of the women of the Metropol Hotel and the foreign reporters they worked with is told for the first time. This revelatory story will finally lift the lid on Stalin's operation to muzzle and control what the Western allies' writers and foreign correspondents knew of his regime's policies to prosecute the war against Hitler's rampaging armies from June 1941 onwards.

The Book On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are explores an unrecognised but mighty taboo - our tacit conspiracy to ignore who, or what, we really are. Alan Watts, key thinker of Western Zen Buddhism, explains how to reconsider our relationship with the world. We are in urgent need of a sense of our own existence, which is in accord with the physical facts and which overcomes our feeling of alienation from the universe.In The Book On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are, Alan Watts asks what causes the illusion of the self as a separate ego which confronts a universe of physical objects that are alien to it. Rather, a person's identity binds them to the physical universe, creating a relationship with their environment and other people. The separation of the self and the physical world leads to the misuse of technology and the attempt to violently subjugate man's natural environment, leading to its destruction.Watts urges against the idea that we are separate from the world. Nowhere is this idea more apparent than in the concept of cultural taboos. The biggest taboo of all is knowing who we really are behind the mask of our self as presented to the world.Through our focus on ourselves and the world as it affects us, we have developed narrowed perception. Alan Watts tells us how to open our eyes and see ourselves not as coming into the world but from it. In understanding the individual's real place in the universe, Watts presents a critique of Western culture and a healing alternative.

Alan Krueger, the former chairman of the president's Council of Economic Advisers, uses the music industry, from rock artists to music executives, from managers to promoters, as a way in to explain the principles of economics, and the forces shaping our economic lives.The music industry is often a leading indicator of today's economy; it is among the first to be disrupted by the latest wave of technology, and examining the ins and outs of how musicians create and sell new songs and plan concert tours offers valuable lessons for what is in store for businesses and employees in other industries that are struggling to adapt.Drawing on interviews with leading band members, music executives, managers, promoters, and using the latest data on revenues, royalties, tour dates, and merchandise, Rockonomics takes readers backstage to show how the music industry really works - who makes money, how the economics of the music industry has undergone a radical transformation during the last twenty years, and what this tells us about our wider economy today.

What should we eat? It's a simple and fundamental question that still bewilders us despite a seemingly infinite amount of available information on which foods are best for our bodies. Scientists, dieticians, and even governments regularly publish research on the dangers of too much fat and sugar as well as on the benefits of exercise, and yet the global obesity crisis is only worsening. Most diet plans prove to be only short-term solutions, and few strategies work for everyone. Why can one person eat a certain meal and gain weight while another eating the same meal drops pounds? Part of the truth lies in genetics, but more and more scientists are finding that the answer isn't...
