Woodhill - Eleanor Corvin - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Co byste dělali vy, kdyby najednou mrtví začali chodit zpátky mezi nás? Když se protrhla opona mezi živými a mrtvými, technologie selhaly, společnost se zhroutila a svět se změnil v provizorium. Regiony teď spravují izolovaná panství – a jedno z nich, Woodhill, se stává centrem dění. Lexi vidí mrtvé – i když ostatní ne. Díky této schopnosti je povolána do Woodhillu, správního centra jednoho z posledních funkčních regionů. Má chránit dívku, která může být další obětí série vražd. Tady duchové nezůstávají stát ve stínech –vcházejí do místností, šeptají do uší a útočí bez varování. A když ztichne celý dům, znamená to většinou jediné: přišli si pro další. Broderick Woodhill, správce sídla, sice ví víc, než říká, nicméně mlčení zde neznamená luxus – je to obranný mechanismus. Lexi čeká role, na kterou ji nic nepřipravilo. Woodhill je dystopická romance s atmosférou, která se nevnucuje, ale pomalu utahuje smyčku. Svět, kde každé rozhodnutí balancuje na hraně mezi šancí a pádem. „Mysteriózní zápletka s duchy byla skvělým zpestřením k romantické lince… Celá kniha je skvělou kombinací romantiky, dystopie a hororu.“ — Markéta Nováková, Knihy Dobrovský „Rychlé tempo, netradiční svět a dystopie, která nesklouzává ke klišé.

Woodhill - Eleanor Corvin
Říkali mi, že jsem blázen. A já jim věřila.Všechno se změnilo jednoho zářijového dne, kdy opona mezi živými a mrtvými spadla a mrtví se zpoza ní začali vracet. Tohle byl problém sám o sobě, ale když se k tomu všemu přidala ještě plicní chřipka, ocitla se civilizace v troskách a lidská rasa byla na pokraji vymření.Abychom zabránili nejhoršímu, museli jsme společnost přeorganizovat a do čel jednotlivých regionů dosadit správce, kteří sídlili na centrálních panstvích.Kvůli mé schopnosti vidět mrtvé, i když jsou za oponou, jsem byla povolaná do Woodhillu, našeho hlavního sídla. Nechtěla jsem odejít od svých přátel a života, který jsem si v osadě vybudovala, ale rozkaz je rozkaz. Kdybych věděla, že mě v sídle nečeká pouze nevrlý správce Broderick Woodhill, ale i mrtví, kteří cíleně vraždí mladé dívky, vzala bych nohy na ramena dřív, než mi na dveře zabušili strážci a obrátili mi život vzhůru nohama.

The Lost Book of Eleanor Dare - Kimberly Brock
Now available in trade paper—just in time for women’s history month—SIBA bestseller The Lost Book of Eleanor Dare explores the meaning of women’s history and the sacrifices every mother makes for her daughter.What happened to the Lost Colony of Roanoke remains a mystery, but the women who descended from Eleanor Dare have long known that the truth lies in what she left behind: a message carved onto a large stone and the contents of her treasured commonplace book. Brought from England on Eleanor’s fateful voyage to the New World, her book was passed down through the fifteen generations of daughters who followed as they came of age. Thirteen-year-old Alice had been next in line to receive it, but her mother’s tragic death fractured the unbroken legacy and the Dare Stone and the shadowy history recorded in the book faded into memory. Or so Alice hoped.In the waning days of World War II, Alice is a young widow and a mother herself when she is unexpectedly presented with her birthright: the deed to Evertell, her abandoned family home and the history she thought forgotten. Determined to sell the property and step into a future free of the past, Alice returns to ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Eleanor of Aquitaine - Sara Cockerill
New in paperback - In this biography Sara Cockerill has gone back to the primary sources, and the wealth of recent first-rate scholarship, and assessed which of the claims about Eleanor can be sustained on the evidence. In the competition for remarkable queens, Eleanor of Aquitaine tends to win. In fact her story sometimes seems so extreme it ought to be made up. The headlines: orphaned as a child, Duchess in her own right, Queen of France, crusader, survivor of a terrible battle, kidnapped by her own husband, captured by pirates, divorced for barrenness, Countess of Anjou, Queen of England, mother of at least five sons and three daughters, supporter of her sonsÂ’ rebellion against her own husband, his prisoner for fifteen years, ruler of England in her own right, traveler across the Pyrenees and Alps in winter in her late sixties and seventies, and mentor to the most remarkable queen medieval France was to know (her own granddaughter, obviously). It might be thought that this material would need no embroidery. But the reality is that Eleanor of AquitaineÂ’s life has been subjected to successive reinventions over the years, with the facts usually losing the battle with speculation and wishful ...

Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine - Matthew Lewis
Henry II became King of England in 1154 after twenty years of civil war. He was the first Plantagenet king, the founder of England’s most successful and longest-ruling dynasty.But Henry did not come to the throne alone. He had married Eleanor of Aquitaine, a feisty, formidable and powerful woman ten years his senior. Eleanor had spent fifteen years married to Louis VII of France before he divorced her, only to be angered when she married his young rival. Together, they were a medieval power couple who soon added the ultimate rank of king and queen consort to their list of titles. With them, the Angevin Empire was born.Over the decades, a wedge was driven between the king, fiercely protective of his empire, and Eleanor, who felt restrained in her husband’s shadow. Henry imprisoned his wife, fought his elder sons and pinned his hopes on his youngest, whose betrayal was the last straw.This book charts the early lives of Henry and Eleanor before they became a European power couple and examines the impact of their union on contemporaries and European politics. It explores the birth of the Angevin Empire that spread from Northumberland to the Mediterranean, and the causes of the ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Eleanor Of Aquitaine - Alison Weirová
Eleanor, Duchess of Aquitaine was one of the leading personalities of the Middle Ages and also one of the most controversial. She was beautiful, intelligent and wilful, and in her lifetime there were rumours about her that were not without substance. She had been reared in a relaxed and licentious court where the arts of the troubadours flourished, and was even said to have presided over the fabled Courts of Love. Eleanor married in turn Louis VII of France and Henry II of England, and was the mother of Richard the Lionheart and King John. She lived to be 82, but it was only in old age that she triumphed over the adversities and tragedies of her earlier years and became virtual ruler of England. Eleanor has exerted a fascination over writers and biographers for 800 years, but the prevailing myths and legends that attach to her name still tend to obscure the truth. By careful research, Alison Weir has produced a vivid biography with a fresh and provocative perspective on this extraordinary woman.

Everything I Have Is Yours - Eleanor Henderson
A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR • From New York Times bestselling author Eleanor Henderson comes a turbulent love story meets harrowing medical mystery: the true story of the author’s twenty-year marriage defined by her husband’s chronic illness—and a testament to the endurance of love Eleanor met Aaron when she was just a teenager and he was working at a local record stored—older, experienced, and irresistibly charming. Escaping the clichés of fleeting young love, their summer romance bloomed into a relationship that survived college and culminated in a marriage and two children. From the outside looking in, their life had all the trappings of what most would consider a success story.But, as in any marriage, things weren’t always as they seemed. On top of the typical stresses of parenting, money, and work, there were the untended wounds of depression, addiction, and childhood trauma. And then one day, out of nowhere: a rash appeared on Aaron’s arms. Soon, it had morphed into painful lesions covering his body. Eleanor was as baffled as the doctors. There was no obvious diagnosis, let alone a cure. And as years passed and the lesions gave way to Aaron’s increasingly disturbed concerns about ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Eleanor Roosevelt's Nightly Prayer - Donn Mitchell
A deep exploration of how Eleanor Roosevelt’s Christian faith led her to become one of the most well-known and praised humanitarians. A great woman who was heavily involved in politics, Eleanor Roosevelt is considered one of the most important and beloved First Ladies and female leaders. Her faith and beliefs are commonly dismissed as confines of her upbringing that she broke free from; however, her dedication to the Episcopal Church and her reliance on Jesus’s teachings imply otherwise. Her nightly prayer, famously recorded in her writing, demonstrates her approach to serving her community and nation, and her inspiration and strength in the politics she was involved in become apparent when understanding the context of her religion and considering the fulfillment of her beliefs through her actions. In reviewing observations from family members, her own writing, and her participation in the church, Mitchell examines the impact of Eleanor’s faith on her work, and by extension, its impact on the world.

When, how, where, does a mark become a musical note? What alchemy occurs to transform a symbol into sound: a song; a symphony; a chorus?Music is interwoven into the fabric of our lives. We listen to it, some of us play it, but throughout history, humans have also attempted to capture it visually, from the musical images of Ancient Sumer, to Frozen''s Elsa standing on the side of a mountain, her voice making crystals in the air. In this startlingly original history of music, Eleanor Chan takes us on a journey through sound that encompasses the 35,000-year-old flute found in a German cave, Kandinsky''s kaleidoscopic paintings, illuminated manuscripts and haute couture.Classically trained musician and art historian, Dr Eleanor Chan, opens up a world of sound and vision, exploring different ways to think about listening and seeing. Ultimately, this book asks the reader what it is, and what it might mean, to truly see music.

In Life Lessons from Historical Women, Eleanor Morton celebrates the ordinary women whose decisions and accomplishments in their everyday lives resonate with us today.Taking inspiration from the thriving self-help genre, Morton reasons that the greatest lessons can be taken from the female forebears who have come before - women whose actions inspire purpose, creativity and rebellion... without a side of pseudo psychology and judgement...Covering the full gamut of the female experience, and women from all corners of history and the globe, Life Lessons from Historical Women includes chapters on 'How To Thrive' with Judith Kerr, 'Think Like an Entrepreneur' with Mary Seacole, and 'How Not to Give a Fuck' with the famous suffragette martyr Emily Davison.Whether it's what we can learn from the first woman to summit Everest or the trailblazing ladies who confirm that pockets have always been must-have in women's clothing, Eleanor writes with humour and a sincere respect for our history, and imparts valuable lessons for the modern female.

Když jsem se do něho jako mladá dívka poprvé zamilovala, o životě jsem toho moc nevěděla. Ale již brzy jsem věděla vše o jeho úsměvu, hlasitém smíchu i motýlech v břiše, které jsem cítila pokaždé, když mi byl nablízku. Život byl dokonalý… jenže pak se to všechno pokazilo a každý z nás byl nucen jít dál svojí vlastní cestou.Nechala jsem svou první lásku být, držela jsem se vzpomínek a žila jen pro ten den, kdy se znovu shledáme. Když se mé přání konečně splnilo, vůbec to nebylo tak, jak jsem si představovala. Když jsem se rozhodla přijmout práci chůvy, nemohla jsem tušit, že to budou jeho děti, o něž se budu muset starat, a že mým novým šéfem bude právě ten kluk, kterého jsem kdysi znala. Ten kluk, z něhož byl nyní muž – chladný, osamělý, odtažitý muž. Jeho sladký úsměv i nakažlivý smích, jež jsem kdysi tolik milovala, zůstaly už...

Vrazi - Frederick George Loring, Mary Eleanor Wilkinsová Freemanová - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Ve čtvrtém kroku k temnotě s názvem Vrazi se posluchač přenese do hájemství příběhů o upírech a strašidelných domech. Prvním z nich je Sářina hrobka anglického námořního důstojníka a spisovatele Fredericka George Loringa. Není bez zajímavosti, že její první překlad do češtiny vyšel knižně až v roce 2010, tedy o celé století později, než byla vydána. Jde o jednu vůbec prvních povídek minulého století, v níž nefiguruje upír, ale upírka. A ženské pohlaví hlavní hrdinky představuje spojnici s Luellou Millerovou od americké autorky Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freemanové. V této povídce hrdinka, obyvatelka strašidelného domu, doslova vysává život z každého, kdo o ni projeví zájem. A postupem času atmosféra houstne. Relativně krátký příběh má neuvěřitelnou hloubku a bude vám rezonovat v hlavě ještě dlouho poté, co si jej poslechnete. Obě povídky čte Petr Šmíd, přičemž Luellu Millerovou společně s Martou Dancingerovou.

Murderers - Frederick George Loring, Mary Eleanor Wilkinsová Freemanová - audiokniha
Audiokniha: The fourth step into the Darkness is called Murderers, and it takes the listener into the realm of vampire stories and haunted houses. The first – The Tomb of Sara – was written by English navy officer, and writer, Frederick George Loring. It was one of the very first stories from the last century featuring a lady vampire. The feminine element represents the connection with Luella Miller by Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman. The inhabitant of a haunted house sucks life out of everyone who gets interested in her – and the atmosphere gets denser throughout the story. This relatively short story is incredibly touching, and you will remember it for a long time. The atmosphere builds up thanks to well-chosen voices, music, and graphics.

Jean-Michel Basquiat. 40th Anniversary Edition - Hans Werner Holzwarth, Eleanor Nairne
The legend of Jean-Michel Basquiat is as strong as ever. Synonymous with 1980s New York, the artist first appeared in the late 1970s under the tag SAMO, spraying caustic comments and fragmented poems on the walls of the city. He appeared as part of a thriving underground scene of visual arts and graffiti, hip hop, post-punk, and DIY filmmaking, which met in a booming art world. As a painter with a strong personal voice, Basquiat soon broke into the established milieu, exhibiting in galleries around the world.Basquiat's expressive style was based on raw figures and integrated words and phrases. His work is inspired by a pantheon of luminaries from jazz, boxing, and basketball, with references to arcane history and the politics of street life-so when asked about his subject matter, Basquiat answered "royalty, heroism and the streets." In 1983 he started collaborating with the most famous of art stars, Andy Warhol, and in 1985 was on the cover of The New York Times Magazine. When Basquiat died at the age of 27, he had become one of the most successful artists of his time.First published in an XXL edition, this unprecedented insight into Basquiat's art is now available in a ...
