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.

The dramatic story of Gandhi and India''s long march to freedom by award-winning author Neal Bascomb.In 1930, the Indian people, long ruled by their British occupiers, were at a breaking point. No more could many stand the terrible demands of colonial rule. At this pivotal moment, Mohandas Gandhi, who had suffered firsthand for decades the cruelty of his oppressors, saw an opportunity to win his people''s freedom. And so, Gandhi led a small band of his followers on a grueling march from his ashram in western India to the Arabian Sea. After 24 days and 241 miles under a withering sun, the marchers arrived on the Dandi seashore. There, Gandhi scooped up a handful of salt to protest the much-hated British salt tax, demonstrating to the world the injustice of Britain''s yoke and setting the stage for a popular national uprising.In the dramatic months that followed, Gandhi led acts of nonviolent resistance against the British Raj across the country that would eventually culminate in a brutal crackdown. But Gandhi and those who bravely stood with him faced arrest, beatings, and even bullets without ever raising a hand in retaliation.These events inspired India to demand its liberty from Britain, awakened the world to a movement that would forever change the course of history, and inspired generations of freedom fighters all over the globe.Award-winning author Neal Bascomb chronicles what was arguably Gandhi''s most notable campaign in his struggle for India''s independence. His focus on nonviolent protest and revolutionary action introduces young readers to a pivotal historical moment with timely implications for today''s world.Scholastic Focus is the premier home of thoroughly researched, beautifully written, and thoughtfully designed works of narrative nonfiction aimed at middle grade and young adult readers. These books help readers learn about the world in which they live and develop their critical thinking skills so that they may become dynamic citizens who are able to analyze and understand our past, participate in essential discussions about our present, and work to grow and build our future.

The Book of Five Rings is one of the most insightful texts on the subtle arts of confrontation and victory to emerge from Asian culture. Written not only for martial artists but for anyone who wants to apply the timeless principles of this text to their life, the book analyzes the process of struggle and mastery over conflict that underlies every level of human interaction. The Book of Five Rings was composed in 1643 by the famed duelist and undefeated samurai Miyamoto Musashi. Thomas Cleary''s translation is immediately accessible, with an introduction that presents the spiritual background of the warrior tradition. Along with Musashi''s text, Cleary translates here another important Japanese classic on leadership and strategy, The Book of Family Traditions on the Art of War by Yagyu Munenori, which highlights the ethical and spiritual insights of Taoism and Zen as they apply to the way of the warrior.

A celebration of the printed book, told through the lives of 18 people who took it in radical new directions. ‘Amazing. This book is a soul-expanding celebration of the human spirit’ MARTIN LATHAM, author of The Bookseller's Tale‘Will delight any booklover’ ROLAND ALLAN, author of The NotebookThis is an extraordinary story of skill, craft, mess, cunning, triumph, improvisation, and error.Of printers and binders, publishers and artists, paper-makers and library founders. Some we know. We meet jobbing printer (and United States Founding Father) Benjamin Franklin, and watch Thomas Cobden-Sanderson conjure books that flicker between the 20th and 15th centuries.Others we’ve forgotten. We don't recall Sarah Eaves, wife of John Baskerville, and her crucial contribution to the history of type. Nor Charles Edward Mudie, populariser of the circulating library – and the most influential figure in publishing before Jeff Bezos.Nor William Wildgoose, who meticulously bound Shakespeare’s First Folio, then disappeared. The Book-Makers puts people back into the story of the book. It takes us inside the print-shop as the deadline looms and the adrenaline flows – from the Fleet Street of 1492 to present-day New York.It’s a tale of contingencies and quirks, of successes and failures, of routes forward and paths not taken. This is a history of book-making that leaves ink on your fingers, and shows why the printed book will continue to flourish. ‘Evocative and fascinating’ EMMA SMITH, author of Portable Magic‘A brilliant time machine of a book’ JOSEPH HONE, author of The Book Forger
