Sedmidílný román Hledání ztraceného času, považovaný za jedno ze základních děl nejen francouzské, ale i světové literatury, vznikal v letech 1909 až 1922 a byl uveřejňován postupně v letech 1913 až 1927. Proustův román se odehrává v prostředí francouzské vyšší společnosti na přelomu 19. a 20. století. Lze-li o něm říci, že podává po Balzacově Lidské komedii nejúplnější "obraz mravů" své doby, zároveň platí, že autorovi jde o mnohem víc než o realistické zobrazení společnosti: hlavními tématy jeho díla jsou čas, paměť, umění a poznání. Hlavním "hrdinou" tohoto románu-řeka, či spíše románu-katedrála, který čítá 3120 stran a v němž figuruje více než 200 postav, je lidské vědomí. Díly: Svět Swannových (388 stran), Ve stínu kvetoucích dívek (480 stran), Svět Guermantových (600 stran), Sodoma a Gomora (528 stran), Uvězněná (412 stran), Uprchlá (288 stran), Čas znovu nalezený (424 stran)

In 2016 it was announced that Bob Dylan had sold his personal archive to the George Kaiser Foundation in Tulsa, Oklahoma, reportedly for $22 million. As the boxes started to arrive, the Foundation asked Clinton Heylin - author of the acclaimed Bob Dylan: Behind the Shades and ''perhaps the world''s authority on all things Dylan'' (Rolling Stone) - to assess the material they had been given. What he found in Tulsa - as well as what he gleaned from other papers he had recently been given access to by Sony and the Dylan office - so changed his understanding of the artist, especially of his creative process, that he became convinced that a whole new biography was needed. It turns out that much of what previous biographers - Dylan himself included - have said is wrong; often as not, a case of, Print the Legend.This is the second instalment of the definitive biography (following A Restless Hungry Feeling) of one contemporary culture''s most iconic and mysterious figures - musical revolutionary, Nobel Prize-winner, chart-topping recording artist.Clinton Heylin''s meticulously researched, all-encompassing and consistently revelatory account of these fascinating early years is the closest we will ever get to a definitive life of an artist who has been the lodestar of popular culture for six decades.

And he knows there is nothing he wouldn't borrow, steal or destroy in order to discover his past.Malcolm knows he can raise the dead with a wave of his hand but all he really wants is to be able to save his mother. When Eli is sent to track down the legendary fang of the leopard god Osebo, he finds himself entangled with an old and ancient power. Forced to team up, Malcolm and Eli must weave through the cracks of London, unearthing magic that should have stayed buried.Until finally, they face a power greater than either of them could have imagined: the daughter of Death herself . . .Raising the dead is easy, living is harder.

"Radical and inspiring ... Yanagi's vision puts the connection between heart and hand before the transient and commercial" - Edmund de WaalThe daily lives of ordinary people are replete with objects, common things used in commonplace settings. These objects are our constant companions in life. As such, writes Soetsu Yanagi, they should be made with care and built to last, treated with respect and even affection. They should be natural and simple, sturdy and safe - the aesthetic result of wholeheartedly fulfilling utilitarian needs. They should, in short, be things of beauty.In an age of feeble and ugly machine-made things, these essays call for us to deepen and transform our relationship with the objects that surround us. Inspired by the work of the simple, humble craftsmen Yanagi encountered during his lifelong travels through Japan and Korea, they are an earnest defence of modest, honest, handcrafted things - from traditional teacups to jars to cloth and paper. Objects like these exemplify the enduring appeal of simplicity and function: the beauty of everyday things.

Kniha Proust a znaky dobře ilustruje Deleuzovu definici filosofie jako tvoření pojmů. Deleuze v ní vytváří pojmy filosofické a současně proustovské. Pracuje s nimi v systému, který je blízký Proustovu Hledání, objevně popisuje proustovské universum a odkrývá vnitřní linie Proustova díla, v nichž se dílo samo přesahuje a rozvíjí k jiným dílům a jiným autorům. V této dnes již klasické poststrukturalistické knize vytváří Deleuze společný prostor pro čtenáře i autora, který je vždy "někým jiným". Snaží se "vyhnout nízkosti vědce i familiárnosti. Vrátit autorovi trochu té radosti, té síly, toho milostného a politického života, který on uměl dávat a objevovat."

Ulrich Wust (*1949) trained as an urban planner and began photographing East German cities in the late 1970s. Today, his early work is widely recognized as a subtly formulated critique of social conditions in the GDR and one of the most important photographic records of the socialist state. Since the 1990s, he has expanded his practice to focus on the memory landscape of reunified Germany and the transformations of both city and countryside, particularly the villages and farming culture of Uckermark and other rural regions. In this first monograph on Wust, Van Zante provides a context for his work in American and German urban photography and photography of place. Over 500 photographs are published here, many for the first time, including a selection of Wust's distinctive leporellos of titled series. An interview with the photographer is included.Gary Van Zante is curator of the photography, design and architecture collections at the MIT Museum, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA

Fangirl meets Jane Austen in this deeply heartfelt love story about hiding the worst parts of ourselves, and the people who love us anyway. "How could I open that door and let him see the messiest part of me?" From the moment she first learned to read, literary genius Darcy Wells has spent most of her time living in the worlds of her books. There, she can avoid the crushing reality of her mother's hoarding and pretend her life is simply ordinary. But then Asher Fleet, a former teen pilot with an unexpectedly shattered future, walks into the bookstore where she works...and straight into her heart. For the first time in her life, Darcy can't seem to find the right words. Fairy tales are one thing, but real love makes her want to hide behind her carefully constructed ink-and-paper wall. Still, after spending her whole life keeping people out, something about Asher makes Darcy want to open up. But securing her own happily-ever-after will mean she'll need to stop hiding and start living her own truth--even if it's messy. "A lovely tale for bookish readers that will give them all the feels." --Kirkus
