Kde se rozmanitost setkává s hodnotou - Katalo.cz

Pageboy je hlboko osobný príbeh herca Elliota Pagea. Zaznamenáva v ňom tŕnistú cestu samého seba ako transrodového človeka a zachytáva aj univerzálnu ľudskú skúsenosť hľadania si svojho miesta vo svete.Na Oscara nominovaný umelec nás vo svojom debute zavedie do kanadského Halifaxu, v ktorom vyrastal, do domu svojej nevlastnej matky, od ktorej nikdy necítil vrúcnosť, ale tiež do zákulisia filmového sveta, v ktorom zažil okrem iného aj sexualizované násilie a otvorenú homofóbiu. Čitateľstvu však napriek všetkému dokazuje, že pocity radosti, odvahy a nádeje sa dajú nájsť aj po dlhých rokoch, keď sa zdali byť nedosiahnuteľné.

'A surprising, thoughtful and deeply personal exploration of what it means to be a sociopath.' – Pandora Sykes'A fascinating memoir' - Stylist magazine'Addictively page-turning' - The TelegraphSociopath: A Memoir is at once a jaw-dropping tale of a life lived on the edge of the law, and a moving account of one woman's battle to gain a deeper understanding of people who, like her, are sociopaths.'Your friends would probably describe me as nice. But guess what? I can't stand your friends. I'm a liar. I'm a thief. I'm highly manipulative. I don't care what other people think. I'm capable of almost anything.'Ever since she was a small child, Patric Gagne knew she was different. Although she felt intense love for her family and her best friend, David, these connections were never enough to make her be 'good', or to reduce her feelings of apathy and frustration. As she grew older, her behaviour escalated from petty theft through to breaking and entering, stalking, and worse . . .As an adult, Patric realized that she was a sociopath. Although she instantly connected with the official descriptions of sociopathy, she also knew they didn't tell the full story: she had a plan for her life, had nurtured close relationships and was doing her best (most of the time) to avoid harming others.While her darker impulses warred against her attempts to live a settled, loving life with her partner, Patric began to wonder - was there a way for sociopaths to integrate happily into society? And could she find it before her own behaviour went a step too far?'She is compelling, like a movie character – a sociopath who’s beautiful, warm and funny, articulate and charming' - The Guardian'A heart-rending account of a lonely child growing up into a lonely adult, misunderstood and unable to connect with people' - iNews

'Here's a partial list of things I don't believe in: God. The Devil. Heaven. Hell. Bigfoot. Ancient Aliens. Past lives. Vampires. Zombies. Homeopathy. Note that "witches" and "witchcraft" are absent from this list. When really they should be right there at the top. The thing is, I wouldn't believe in them, and I would privately ridicule any idiot who did, except for one thing: I am a witch.' - From Toil & TroubleFor as long as Augusten Burroughs could remember, he knew things he shouldn't have known. He manifested things that shouldn't have come to pass. And he told exactly no one about this, save one person: his mother. His mother reassured him that it was all perfectly normal, that he was descended from a long line of witches, going back to the days of the Pendle witches of Lancashire, England. It was a bond that he and his mother shared - until the day she left him in the care of her psychiatrist to be raised in his family (but that's a whole other story). After that, Augusten was on his own. From the hilarious to the terrifying, Toil & Trouble is a chronicle of one man's journey to understand himself, to reconcile the powers he can wield with things with which he is helpless. There are very few coincidences, as you will learn. Ghosts are real, trees can want to kill you, beavers are the spawn of Satan, houses are alive, and in the end, love is the most powerful magic of all.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the chef behind Momofuku and star of Netflix's Ugly Delicious--an intimate account of the making of a chef, the story of the modern restaurant world that he helped shape, and how he discovered that success can be much harder to understand than failure. "David puts words to so many of the things we all feel, sharing generously of his own journey so we can all benefit in the process."--Chrissy Teigen NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR - Fortune - Parade - The New York Public Library - Garden & Gun In 2004, Momofuku Noodle Bar opened in a tiny, stark space in Manhattan's East Village. Its young chef-owner, David Chang, worked the line, serving ramen and pork buns to a mix of fellow restaurant cooks and confused diners whose idea of ramen was instant noodles in Styrofoam cups. It would have been impossible to know it at the time--and certainly Chang would have bet against himself--but he, who had failed at almost every endeavor in his life, was about to become one of the most influential chefs of his generation, driven by the question, "What if the underground could become the mainstream?" Chang grew up the youngest son of a deeply religious Korean American family in Virginia. Graduating college aimless and depressed, he fled the States for Japan, hoping to find some sense of belonging. While teaching English in a backwater town, he experienced the highs of his first full-blown manic episode, and began to think that the cooking and sharing of food could give him both purpose and agency in his life. Full of grace, candor, grit, and humor, Eat a Peach chronicles Chang's switchback path. He lays bare his mistakes and wonders about his extraordinary luck as he recounts the improbable series of events that led him to the top of his profession. He wrestles with his lifelong feelings of otherness and inadequacy, explores the mental illness that almost killed him, and finds hope in the shared value of deliciousness. Along the way, Chang gives us a penetrating look at restaurant life, in which he balances his deep love for the kitchen with unflinching honesty about the industry's history of brutishness and its uncertain future.

Ivan Klíma, “a writer of enormous power and originality” (The New York Times Book Review), has penned an intimate autobiography that explores his life under Nazi and Communist regimes. More than a memoir, My Crazy Century explores the ways in which the epoch and its dominating totalitarian ideologies impacted the lives, character, and morality of Klíma’s generation.Klíma’s story begins in the 1930s, in the Terezin concentration camp outside of Prague, where he was forced to spend almost four years of his childhood. He reveals how the postwar atmosphere supported and encouraged the spread of Communist principles over the next few decades and how an informal movement to change the system developed inside the Party. These political events form the backdrop to Klíma’s personal experiences, with the arrest and trial of his father; the early revolt of young writers against socialist realism; his first literary successes; and his travels to the free part of Europe, which strengthened his awareness of living as part of a colossal lie. Klíma also captures the brief period of liberation during 1968’s Prague Spring, in which he played an active role; the Soviet invasion that crushed its political reforms; the rise of the dissident movement; and the collapse of the Communist regime in the middle of the Velvet Revolution of 1989. Including insightful essays on topics related to social history, political thinking, love, and freedom, My Crazy Century provides a profoundly rich and moving personal history of national evolution. Ivan Klíma’s first autobiography and perhaps his most significant work, it encapsulates a remarkable life largely lived under occupation.

‘Towards the end of the summer of 2016 I found an old diary in a cardboard box, hundreds of typed pages, the first dated 9 September 1989. I put the diary away without reading it; I had lost my father, my mother had died only three months earlier, and it was not the right time to think about anything. I was heartbroken. As I remembered it the diary was about sitting again, an easy portrait this time, fully clothed, the manuscript mainly a record of my father’s remarkable stories. I imagined all his stories were amusing, uncontentious, but even if that had been true I still would not have been ready. It is unclear to me now how I was able so effectively to distort reality.’ In Naked Portrait Rose Boyt explores her complicated relationship with her beloved father, Lucian Freud, through the diary and other accounts of sitting for him, naked or otherwise. Enthralled by his genius, it was only after his death that she began to question the version of events she had come to accept. The shock of the truth is profound but what emerges is her love and compassion not just for herself as a vulnerable young woman, but for the man himself, who is shown in all his brilliant complexity.

An icon of the last fifty years, Stephen Hawking seems to encapsulate genius: not since Albert Einstein has a scientific figure held such a position in popular consciousness. In this enthralling memoir, writer and physicist Leonard Mlodinow tells the story of his friend and their friendship, offering an intimate account of this giant of science.The two met in 2003, when Stephen asked Leonard if he would consider writing a book with him, the follow up to the bestselling A Brief History of Time. As they spent years working on a second book, The Grand Design, they forged a deep connection and Leonard gained a much better understanding of Stephen's daily life and struggles - as well as his compassion and good humour. Together they obsessed over the perfect sentence, debated the physics, and occasionally punted on Cambridge's waterways with champagne and strawberries. In time, Leonard was able to finish Stephen's jokes, chide his sporadic mischief, and learn how the hardships of his illness helped forge that unique perspective on the universe.By weaving together their shared story with a clear-sighted portrayal of Hawking's scientific achievements, Mlodinow creates a beautiful portrait of Stephen Hawking as a brilliant, impish and generous man whose life was not only exceptional but also genuinely inspiring.

A searingly honest memoir of life, policing and falling apart 'Every contact leaves a trace' John Sutherland joined the Met in 1992, having dreamed of being a police officer since his teens. Rising quickly through the ranks, and compelled by the opportunity to make a real difference to people's lives, he worked across the capital, experiencing first-hand the enormous satisfaction as well as the endless trauma that a life in blue can bring. There were remarkable, career-defining moments: commanding armed sieges, saving lives and helping to take dangerous people off the streets. But for every case with a happy ending, there were others that ended in desperate sadness. In early 2013, John suffered a major breakdown and consequent battle with crippling depression. After a career spent racing to be the first at the scene of crimes and catastrophes, he found himself in pieces, unable to put one foot in front of the other. Blue is a memoir of crime and calamity, of adventure and achievement, of friendship and failure, of laughter and loss, of the best and the worst of humanity, of serious illness and slow recovery. With searing honesty, it offers an immensely moving and personal insight into what it is to be a police officer in Britain today.

*Longlisted for the National Book Award for Nonfiction and Finalist for the Kirkus Prize* An eye-opening memoir of working-class poverty in the American Midwest. During Sarah Smarsh's turbulent childhood in Kansas in the 1980s and 1990s, the forces of cyclical poverty and the country's changing economic policies solidified her family's place among the working poor. By telling the story of her life and the lives of the people she loves, Smarsh challenges us to look more closely at the class divide in our country and examine the myths about people thought to be less because they earn less. Her personal history affirms the corrosive impact intergenerational poverty can have on individuals, families, and communities, and she explores this idea as lived experience, metaphor, and level of consciousness. Smarsh was born a fifth generation Kansas wheat farmer on her paternal side and the product of generations of teen mothers on her maternal side. Through her experiences growing up as the daughter of a dissatisfied young mother and raised predominantly by her grandmother on a farm thirty miles west of Wichita, we are given a unique and essential look into the lives of poor and working class Americans living in the heartland. Combining memoir with powerful analysis and cultural commentary, Heartland is an uncompromising look at class, identity, and the particular perils of having less in a country known for its excess. "Sarah Smarsh--tough-minded and rough-hewn--draws us into the real lives of her family, barely making it out there on the American plains. There's not a false note. Smarsh, as a writer, is Authentic with a capital A...This is just what the world needs to hear" (George Hodgman, author of Bettyville).

Vivienne zná temná tajemství londýnských mužů. Plní jejich touhy výměnou za moc a postavení uznávané kurtizány. Avšak své vlastní rozkoši a nutkáním, která jí velí, rozumí jen málo. Eroticky neukojená prožívá noc co noc do okamžiku, kdy potká upíra Heatha. Jen on ji dokáže uspokojit a uhasit spalující touhu po extázi. Má to však háček – přísahal, že ji nechá prožít vytoužené uvolnění jen jednou… Heathova touha po Vivienne se vyostřuje ve sladké mučení. Zvlášť když ji krůček po krůčku vede erotickými lekcemi a sleduje, jak se nadšeně vydává na stále vyšší vrcholy rozkoše. Jakmile pokušení rozpustí upírova železná pouta sebekontroly, jak dlouho asi můžou přežít? Vydrží klíčící něžný cit tlak okolí? Ochrání před upířími zabijáky nejenom Vivienne, ale i její dceru?

1. díl Trilogie Sester Hamiltonových Venetii Hamiltonové není erotické umění cizí – bujné obrazy jejího otce jsou jedním z tajných společenských potěšení. Venetia však nikdy nezažila opravdovou touhu. Ne dokud nepotká Michaela Wyndhama, hraběte z Trentu – mocného muže, který má v rukou její budoucnost a jediným spalujícím polibkem probudí její zvědavost. Jeho zkušené doteky jsou jen začátkem její tělesné výchovy, ale cenou, kterou za takovou nepředstavitelnou rozkoš zaplatí, může být něco nebezpečnějšího než poddajnost.

Althea Yatesová je lovkyně upírů, zkušená v zacházení s kuší a kůlem. Ale o mužských dotecích neví nic – ani o tom, jak ovládnout hříšné sny, které ji pronásledují ve spánku. Tehdy přicházejí oni. Dva nadpozemsky krásní muži, kteří ji uchvacují ve sladkých tělesných hrátkách a přivádějí ji k propasti nádherné touhy a nepředstavitelné erotické rozkoše. Je to skandální. Zakázané. Kacířské. Její milenci totiž nejsou muži, ale upíři – tytéž bestie, které ona a její otec přísahali zničit. Je to jen sen… dokud do hostince nepřijede elegantní kočár tažený čtyřmi černými koňmi. Dokud nevystoupí Yannick de Wynter, hrabě z Brookshiru. Uhrančivý, odhodlaný a lačný po něčem, co Althea nedokáže pojmenovat. A náhle si přestává být jistá, zda se jí to jen zdálo. Šlo snad o nebezpečně erotickou předtuchu? „Hříšně smyslné a nádherně vykreslené. Historická erotická romance snad už ani nemůže být lépe popsaná.“ – Kate Douglas, autorka knihy Wolf Tales„Sharon Page mísí historii, emoce a žhavý, žhavý, žhavý sex v rámci úžasného milostného příběhu.“ – Kathryn Smith, autorka bestselleru Be Mine Tonight
