Bratři Ruben a Cameron žijí na okraji - doslova. Na okraji Sydney, na okraji blahobytu. Ve světě psích závodů, bídy a nezaměstnanosti. Ve světě věčného zápasu. Celý život se rvou, spolu a za sebe. A tak když jim boxerský promotér nabídne, aby si ilegálními rvačkami přivydělali pár dolarů, přijmou. A rvou se jako psi. V sázce totiž nejsou jen peníze, ale i vlastní identita a hrdost... Silný, dojemně bolestný příběh je volným pokračováním debutového románu Roky pod psa (Argo 2014) Markuse Zusaka, australského spisovatele a autora slavné Zlodějky knih.

Ústředním tématem Zusakovy knihy je důležitost a křehkost vztahů mezi nejbližšími lidmi: mezi sourozenci, mezi rodiči a dětmi. Clay a jeho čtyři bratři tvoří soudržnou partu, ale Clay si jednoho dne uvědomí, že bude muset z party vystoupit, i kdyby to mělo znamenat, že se do ní nikdy nebude moci vrátit. Přesto to udělá, aby se pokusil napravit staré křivdy a navázat přervaná pouta. Kniha má rafinovanou stavbu, autor nehodlá hned odkrýt karty, vrací se do minulosti a zas přeskakuje zpět, takže se čtenář jen postupně a v náznacích dozvídá, co pětici bratrů tak stmelilo, co je odtrhlo od jejich rodičů a a co musí a chce Clay podniknout: vystavět most, po kterém by k sobě mohli přejít ti, kdo byli z různých důvodů odloučeni. Ohromující. Úžasná, náročná, hluboce dojemná. Clayův most se jako v kouzelnickém triku odvíjí od konce, autor dovedně odvádí pozornost od toho, co se skutečně děje, a úloha všech těch úkroků se odhalí, teprve když je celá eskamotáž úspěšně ukončena. - Wall Street Journal Markus Zusak sepsal nezapomenutelnou ságu. - US Weekly Zusak ve svém komplexním vyprávění přeskakuje v čase, z místa na místo, z jednoho břehu oceánu na druhý, a vykresluje živý portrét bratrů, kteří se snaží znovu nabýt rovnováhu tím, že oživí příběh své rodiny. - Time Pokud byla Zlodějka románem, který vyklidil jeviště Smrti, pak její rozjasněný následovník je naopak plný života. - Guardian Vřelá a srdečná kniha… Příběh lásky, umění a vykoupení, neurvalý a radostný, se záblesky vtipu a jasnozřivosti, a neskutečně dojemný. - Times of London

Cameron je z trojice bratrů Wolfových ten nejméně nápadný, není ani fotbalová hvězda jako Steve, ani hezký a okouzlující jako Ruben, který střídá holky jako na běžícím pásu. Cameron jenom sní, že jednoho dne potká dívku, do které se zamiluje a ona do něho. Ale třeba to bude právě Rubenův poslední objev, Octavie s krásnýma zelenýma očima. Jenže která normální holka by chtěla takového lůzra, jako je Cameron? A přece: Octavie je jiná než ostatní Rubenovy lásky a možná Camerona chtít bude... A najednou jsou z obou bratrů zase rivalové... Markus Zusak se narodil roku 1975 jako nejmladší ze čtyř dětí v imigrantské rodině usazené v Sydney. Jeho matka byla Němka a otec Rakušan. První knihou, kterou na sebe upoutal pozornost kritiky i čtenářů, byl Posel (2002). Získal za něj mimo jiné cenu The Children's Book Council of Australia za rok 2003 a Německou cenu za literaturu pro mládež 2007. V roce 2005 vyšlo jeho zatím nejslavnější dílo Zlodějka knih (česky Argo, 2009). K jeho napsání Zusaka inspirovalo vyprávění prarodičů o bombardování Mnichova za druhé světové války a o holocaustu. Román se stal mezinárodním bestselerem.

Markus Zusak, autor světového bestseleru Zlodějka knih, nedávno zfilmovaného, vydal ještě před tímto zásadním dílem trilogii o bratrech Wolfových. Překlad prvního svazku, Roky pod psa, se nyní dostává také k českým čtenářům. Cameron a Ruben Wolfovi se rvou dnem i nocí, spřádají ujeté plány, aniž by domýšleli jejich důsledky, a pro rodiče, sourozence i všechny holky, které obdivují, jsou to jen budižkničemové, co to nikdy nikam nedotáhnou. Jenže když se Cameron poprvé zamiluje, nic už není jako dřív... Příběh patnáctiletého australského kluka s širokým srdcem a praštěnými nápady je dojemný a zábavný zároveň a Zusak opět nezůstává nic dlužen své pověsti výjimečného vypravěče.

It is a widely held view that Picasso's creative work received a fresh impetus with each new muse in his life. This volume does not discuss his biography or his stylistic phases, however, but pays tribute to the individual fates of the women who left their mark on the artist's life. Personalities like Francoise Gilot and Dora Maar are among those whose entire life and creative work are acknowledged, not just the years they spent at Picasso's side.The book sketches the life of ten women in the life of the Spanish artist. Picasso was close to his mother throughout her life and chose her maiden name as his artist's name. When he wanted to marry the Russian ballerina Olga Khokhlova, she warned him that he would remain married to painting throughout his life. They separated in 1935; the reason was his young muse Marie-Therese Walter, who was also soon deposed by Dora Maar. Following various separations, women like the young artist Francoise Gilot also disappeared from Picasso's canvases, but did not vanish entirely. This book pays tribute to them all.Presented women:Dona Maria Picasso y Lopez (Picasso's mother), Maria Dolores Ruiz Picasso (Picasso's sister), Gertrude Stein, Fernande Olivier, Eva Gouel (Marcelle Humbert), Olga Khokhlova, Marie-Therese Walter , Dora Maar, Francoise Gilot, Jaqueline Roque

Virginia Woolf's only autobiographical writing is to be found in this collection of five unpublished pieces. Despite Quentin Bell's comprehensive biography and numerous recent studies of her, the author's own account of her early life holds new fascination - for its unexpected detail, the strength of its emotion, and its clear-sighted judgement of Victorian values. In 'Reminiscences' Virginia Woolf focuses on the death of her mother, 'the greatest disaster that could happen', and its effect on her father, the demanding patriarch who took a high toll of the women in his household. She surveys some of the same ground in 'A Sketch of the Past', the most important memoir in this collection, which she wrote with greater detachment and supreme command of her art shortly before her death. Readers will be struck by the extent to which she drew on these early experiences for her novels, as she tells how she exorcised the obsessive presence of her mother by writing To the Lighthouse. The last three papers were composed to be read to the Memoir Club, a postwar regrouping of Bloomsbury, which exacted absolute candour of its members. Virginia Woolf's contributions were not only bold but also original and amusing. She describes George Duckworth's passionate efforts to launch the Stephen girls; gives her own version of 'Old Bloomsbury'; and, with wit and some malice, reflects on her connections with titled society.

Přesto z něj jeho vtip a neotřelé recepty (především neotřele napsané) udělaly OBJEV ROKU na Foodblogu roku 2019! Adam se živí jako fotograf, grafik a ilustrátor, a tak není divu, že je jeho první kuchařská kniha, kterou od prvního písmenka až do poslední tečky vytvořil se svou ženou Kateřinou, úplně jiná než ostatní české kuchařky. Především jde o kuchařku plnou povídek a o beletrii plnou receptů, což dělá z knížky jakéhosi kulinářského transformera. Stať je rozdělena do 5 kapitol, mapujicích život mladého chlapce, který se postupem času a vlivem okolí mění v dospělého muže (mentálně ovšem zůstává chlapcem).

A to už při čtení jeho vtipných, lehce dehonestujících povídek, i při toužení po jeho parádních jídlech, českých nebo třeba portugalských. Taste of Red bude bavit muže i ženy.

In her fifty-second bestselling novel, Danielle Steel weaves a compelling story of the power of lies, the misuse of trust--and of one woman's triumph over a devastating betrayal. Marie-Ange Hawkins has the kind of childhood that most people dream of. Freedom, love, security in a beautiful old French château. But when Marie-Ange is just eleven, a tragic accident marks the end of her idyllic life. Orphaned and alone, she is sent to America, to live with her great-aunt on a farm in Iowa. Bitterly resented by the old woman, cut off from everything she has known and loved, Marie-Ange is forced to work tirelessly on the farm, dreaming only of the day she can return to her beloved Château de Marmouton. In Marie-Ange's isolated existence, only the friendship of a local boy, Billy Parker, offers comfort and hope. But her only wish is to gain an education--and escape. Then, just after her twenty-first birthday, an unexpected visitor brings startling news and an extraordinary gift: the freedom to return to France, to Château de Marmouton. When she arrives in France, Marie-Ange learns that the château's new owner is Comte Bernard de Beauchamp, a dashing young widower who invites her into his home, then into his heart. But their magical life together, which soon includes marriage, children, and lavish homes, slowly takes an ominous turn. A mysterious woman tells Marie-Ange a shocking story, a story so chilling she doesn't want to believe it. Not even her dear friend Billy can help her now. He is thousands of miles away. And as the darkness gathers around her, Marie-Ange must find the faith and courage to take one, last desperate step to save her loved ones and herself. Danielle Steel's powerful novel is about being pulled into a place where nothing is what it seems. It is about being seduced and lied to and turned around, and wanting to believe the lies--until the moment comes, in one blinding instant, when survival and salvation depend on a final Leap of Faith the only path to freedom, and life.

Adam Dvořák není klasický český foodbloger. Nejí moc zdravě, miluje kolu, nepeče chleba, nepozná drobné nuance v odrůdách kávy, a dokonce se ani neotužuje! Přesto z něj jeho vtip a neotřelé recepty (především neotřele napsané) udělaly OBJEV ROKU na Foodblogu roku 2019! Adam se živí jako fotograf, grafik a ilustrátor, a tak není divu, že je jeho první kuchařská kniha, kterou od prvního písmenka až do poslední tečky vytvořil se svou ženou Kateřinou, úplně jiná než ostatní české kuchařky. Především jde o kuchařku plnou povídek a o beletrii plnou receptů, což dělá z knížky jakéhosi kulinářského transformera. Stať je rozdělena do 5 kapitol, mapujicích život mladého chlapce, který se postupem času a vlivem okolí mění v dospělého muže (mentálně ovšem zůstává chlapcem). V knize najdete spoustu originálních fotek a ilustrací autora. Co je ale na knize, pojmenované podle Adamova blogu Taste of Red, to nejvíc? Budete se popadat za břicho! A to už při čtení jeho vtipných, lehce dehonestujících povídek, i při toužení po jeho parádních jídlech, českých nebo třeba portugalských. Taste of Red bude bavit muže i ženy. No, ty muže možná o malinko víc, i když...!

When Darwin set sail at the end of 1831, it was only with a vague notion that all life forms, both present and extinct, were more strongly related than the Christian version of the world's creation purported them to be. During his five-year voyage of research and discovery on board HMS Beagle, and later from his home in Kent, he painstakingly collected a mass of evidence from across the planet - from Paraguay and the Galapagos Islands to Staffordshire and Scotland - building a compelling case for a theory that would change the world we live in - and the way we look at it - for ever.The foundation of evolutionary biology and natural selection - which prompted as huge a revolution in the fields of science and religion as Copernicus's heliocentric model of the universe and Newton's law of gravity, Darwin's On the Origin of Species is perhaps the most important book of scientific observation ever written.

When Detective Max Mingus and his partner Joe are called to the scene of a death at Miami's Primate Park, it looks like another routine - if slightly bizarre - investigation. Until two things turn up: the victim's family, slaughtered; and a partly digested tarot card in the dead man's stomach; 'The King of Swords'. An increasingly bloody trail leads Max and Joe first to a sinister fortune-teller and her scheming pimp son, then to the infamous Solomon Boukman. Few have ever met the most feared criminal in Miami, but rumours abound of a forked tongue, voodoo ceremonies and friends in very high places. Against a backdrop of black magic and police corruption, Max and Joe must distinguish the good guys from the bad - and track down some answers. What is the significance of the King of Swords? What makes those who have swallowed the card go on a killing spree just before they die? And can Max find out the truth about Solomon Boukman, before death's shadow reaches his own front door?
