The youngest child of many siblings - more than she cares to remember - from earliest childhood she has attended to their every desire, smoothed away the slightest discomfort with perfect obedience, with the highest degree of devotion. The country, it transpires, is the country of their family's ancestors, an obscure though reviled people.Soon after she arrives, a series of unfortunate events occurs - collective bovine hysteria; the demise of a ewe and her nearly-born lamb; a local dog's phantom pregnancy; the containment of domestic fowl; a potato blight. She notices that the local suspicion about incomers in general seems to be directed particularly in her case. What is clear is that she is being accused of wrongdoing, but in a language she cannot understand and so cannot address.And however diligently and silently she toils in service of the community, still she feels their hostility growing, pressing at the edges of her brother's property...

And, as their ideals and ideologies are tested, can they trust each other?A propulsive literary thriller from the Booker Prize-winning author of The Luminaries, Birnam Wood is Shakespearean in its wit, drama and immersion in character.

'One brilliant woman writing about another: an irresistible combination.' - Antonia Fraser'One of the most delightful biographies I have ever read.' - A.N. Wilson'Reading Worsley is as enjoyable as reading Christie herself.' - Ruth Scurr'Full of unique insight, eye opening detail, sharp analysis... Gripping.' - Kate Williams 'Nobody in the world was more inadequate to act the heroine than I was.'Why did Agatha Christie spend her career pretending that she was 'just' an ordinary housewife, when clearly she wasn't? As Lucy Worsley says, 'She was thrillingly, scintillatingly modern'.She went surfing in Hawaii, she loved fast cars, and she was intrigued by the new science of psychology, which helped her through devastating mental illness. So why - despite all the evidence to the contrary - did Agatha present herself as a retiring Edwardian lady of leisure? She was born in 1890 into a world which had its own rules about what women could and couldn't do. Lucy Worsley's biography is not just of an internationally renowned bestselling writer.It's also the story of a person who, despite the obstacles of class and gender, became an astonishingly successful working woman. With access to personal letters and papers that have rarely been seen, Lucy Worsley's biography is both authoritative and entertaining and makes us realise what an extraordinary pioneer Agatha Christie was - truly a woman who wrote the twentieth century.

His first novel in 13 years, The Shards is Bret Easton Ellis at his inimitable best. LA, 1981.Buckley College in heat. 17-year-old Bret is a senior at the exclusive Buckley prep school when a new student arrives with a mysterious past. Robert Mallory is bright, handsome, charismatic, and shielding a secret from Bret and his friends, even as he becomes a part of their tightly knit circle.Bret's obsession with Mallory is equalled only by his increasingly unsettling preoccupation with The Trawler, a serial killer on the loose who seems to be drawing ever closer to Bret and his friends, taunting them with grotesque threats and horrific, sharply local acts of violence. Can he trust his friends - or his own mind - to make sense of the danger they appear to be in? Thwarted by the world and by his own innate desires, buffeted by unhealthy fixations, Bret spirals into paranoia and isolation as the relationship between The Trawler and Robert Mallory hurtles inexorably toward a collision. Gripping, sly, suspenseful, deeply haunting and often darkly funny, The Shards is a mesmerizing fusing of fact and fiction that brilliantly explores the emotional fabric of Bret's life at 17 - sex and jealousy, obsession and murderous rage.

Heliovi, bohu Slnka a najmocnejšiemu z Titanov, sa narodí dcéra. Nymfa Kirké je zvláštne dieťa, má žlté oči a čudesný tenký hlas, no inak po svojom majestátnom otcovi ani pôvabnej zvodnej matke Perse nezdedila nič pozoruhodné. Ako najslabšia zo všetkých bohýň je vystavená ustavičným posmeškom súrodencov, preto hľadá spoločnosť vo svete ľudí. Čoskoro v sebe objaví netušenú moc - ovláda čary, ktoré dokážu premeniť sokyne na príšery a ohroziť samotných bohov. Zeus ju z obavy pred jej nepredvídateľnými schopnosťami vyženie na opustený ostrov, kde Kirké rozvíja svoje tajomné umenie, krotí divé zvery a stretáva mnohé významné postavy z gréckej mytológie vrátane Daidala, jeho nešťastného syna Ikara, napoly človeka, napoly býka Minotaura, krvilačnej Medeie a, samozrejme, prefíkaného Odysea vracajúceho sa z trójskej vojny. Neželaných či dotieravých hostí s potešením premieňa na prasce, no vie im opäť vrátiť ľudskú podobu. Iných si zasa obľúbi a na istý čas sa stávajú jej milencami. Lenže osamelým ženám často hrozí nebezpečenstvo a rozmarná Kirké na seba nechtiac privolá hnev bohov aj ľudí. Napokon musí čeliť jednej z najdesivejších a najpomstychtivejších božstiev celého Olympu. Ak chce ochrániť svojich drahých, musí pozbierať všetku odvahu a raz a navždy si vybrať miesto - buď medzi bohmi, ktorí jej dali život, alebo smrteľníkmi, ktorých sa naučila milovať. Vďaka nezabudnuteľným postavám, podmanivému štýlu a strhujúcemu deju je Kirké skutočné majstrovské dielo - očarujúci epos o rodinnom súperení, palácových intrigách, láske i strate, ktorý vyzdvihuje silu nezlomnej ženy vo svete, kde dominujú muži.

Řecko v časech hrdinů. Patroklos, nešikovný mladý princ, byl vyhoštěn do království Fthie, kde žije přehlížen ve stínu krále Pelea a jeho zlatovlasého syna Achillea. Achilleus, "nejlepší ze všech Řeků", je vším, čím Patroklos není - silný, krásný, syn bohyně -, a jejich cesty se nikdy neměly zkřížit. Jednoho dne ho však Achilleus vezme pod svou ochranu a brzy se z nich stanou přátelé. Vzdělávají se v umění války a medicíny a z jejich pouta vznikne něco mnohem hlubšího - k nelibosti Achilleovy matky Thetidy, kruté mořské nymfy. Když přijde zpráva, že byla unesena Helena Spartská, jsou řečtí muži vyzváni, aby šli do války proti Troji. Achilleus se připojí, sveden příslibem slavného osudu. Patroklos, zmítaný láskou a strachem o svého přítele, následuje Achillea do války, aniž tuší, jak krutá zkouška je čeká. Toto dojemné a originální ztvárnění trojské války je zničujícím příběhem lásky a soupeření mezi bohy a lidmi. Hlavní zápas se však odehrává mezi nelítostnou ctižádostí a touhou lidského srdce po míru.

Audiokniha: Když se narodila, neměli pro to, co byla, žádné pojmenování. Dali ji jméno Kirké a nazvali nymfou, protože měla být jako ty ostatní. Ale malá Kirké je jiná, protože nemá božskou moc. Trápí ji pošklebky sourozenců: k čemu je v říši bohů nymfa mluvící lidským hlasem? Teprve láska k člověku v ní probudí kouzelnou moc, která dokáže měnit lidi v bohy a bohy v netvory. Za trest ji Zeus vyžene na ostrov Aiaia, kde žije stovky let jen ve společnosti zvířat a nymf. Ke břehům připlouvají lodě plné námořníků, za jejichž násilí je Kirké začaruje v prasata. Když jednou dorazí i hrdina Odysseus, proměňuje se i samotná Kirké, která si konečně musí vybrat, kam vlastně patří. Do říše bohů, nebo světa smrtelníků? Kniha se umístila na 1. místě v žebříčku bestsellerů deníku The New York Times, na nejlepší knihu roku ji nominovali ve více jak 26 periodikách, ocenění Nejlepší kniha roku 2018 vyhrála například na Goodreads (kategorie Fantasy), a to s téměř dvojnásobným počtem hlasů oproti další v pořadí.

V dávnom veku hrdinov vypovedali nesmelého gréckeho princa Patrokla za mladícku nerozvážnosť z vlasti do Ftie. Z dediča trónu sa razom stal bezvýznamný dvoran žijúci v tieni kráľa Pelea a jeho výnimočného syna Achilla.Najväčší grécky hrdina Achilles bol pravým opakom Patrokla - silný, krásny, rozumný, odvážny, obratný v boji oplýval všetkým, čo zdobí a ctí muža, a navyše bol synom bohyne. Za normálnych okolností by sa nikdy nestretli, no Achilles sa jedného dňa rozhodne rozprestrieť nad potupeným princom ochranné krídla. Ich váhavý vzťah čoskoro vystrieda vrúcne a nerozlučné priateľstvo. Z chlapcov vyrastú mladí muži, udatný bojovník a nadaný liečiteľ. Ich vzájomná náklonnosť sa aj napriek nevôli Achillovej matky Tetidy, krutej morskej nymfy, ktorá nenávidí smrteľníkov, čoraz väčšmi prehlbuje.Nad šťastím priateľov však visí hrozba neblahej veštby. Keď sa Gréci dozvedia, že spartskú kráľovnú Helenu, najkrajšiu zo smrteľných žien, uniesol trójsky princ Paris, rozhodnú sa spojiť sily a zaútočiť na mocnú Tróju. Aj Achilles sa dá zlákať prísľubom veľkej slávy a vypláva s ostatnými do boja. Nerozhodný Patroklos sa zmieta medzi láskou a strachom, ale nasleduje ho. Netuší, že ďalšie roky, plné strastí a vojenských útrap, podrobia skúške všetko, čo sa obaja naučili a čo im je drahé, a že čoskoro bude musieť prenechať priateľa neodvratnému osudu, aj keď na to nebude pripravený.Spev o Achillovi je živé, dojímavé a nápadité podanie známeho eposu o trójskej vojne. Madeline Millerová nám krásnym lyrickým jazykom spojeným so zmyslom pre dramatickosť rozpráva tragický ľúbostný príbeh odohrávajúci sa na pozadí neľútostného boja medzi bohmi a kráľmi, mierom a vojenským uznaním, medzi nesmrteľnou slávou a prostým ľudským citom.

The god touches his finger to the arrow's fletching. Then he breathes, a puff of air - as if to send dandelions flying, to push toy boats over water.

Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the court of King Peleus and his perfect son Achilles. Despite their differences, the boys develop a tender friendship, a bond which blossoms into something deeper as they grow into young men.
