Odkdy dokážou hory tolik fascinovat lidskou mysl a co nutí nesčetné dobrodruhy, aby v horských výšinách znovu a znovu riskovali zdraví i život? Ve své literární prvotině, která se vzápětí stala klasikou, nás Robert Macfarlane provádí místy koncentrovaného času a zničující krásy, kde lze zažít ryzí strach i opojnou závrať z vlastní bezvýznamnosti. Za Hory v hlavě obdržel řadu ocenění, mimo jiné Somerset Maugham Award nebo Guardian First Book Award, a na motivy knihy vznikl také pořad vysílaný BBC. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Podzemí je velkolepá průzkumná cesta do říše podsvětí, jak se objevuje v mýtech, literatuře, paměti i samotné zemi. V dlouho očekávané knize nám Robert Macfarlane nabízí mimořádný pohled na náš vztah k temnotě, pohřbívání a minulosti i budoucnosti naší planety. Macfarlaneův lyrický a působivý text mocně promlouvá k současnému světu v celé jeho šíři. Od pozoruhodných úvodních stran až po dojemný závěr je to cesta úžasu, žalu, strachu a naděje. Tahle kniha změní způsob, jakým nahlížíte na svět. Po cestě „hlubokým časem“ – závratnými prostory geologického času – se přesouváme od původu vesmíru k Zemi po vyhynutí lidí, zastavujeme se u pohřebišť doby bronzové, pařížských katakomb, tajících Grónských ledovců, bezhvězdných řek a arktických mořských jeskyní, podzemních fungálních sítí, pomocí nichž spolu komunikují stromy, a hlubinné „skrýše“, kde se má po následujících 100 000 let skladovat jaderný odpad. Macfarlaneův lyrický a působivý text mocně promlouvá k současnému světu v celé jeho šíři. Od pozoruhodných úvodních stran až po dojemný závěr je to cesta úžasu, žalu, strachu a naděje. Podzemí je nový přelom v Macfarleneově dlouholetém mapování vztahů mezi krajinou a lidským srdcem. Tahle kniha, zároveň odvěká i naléhavá, změní způsob, jakým nahlížíte na svět.

Kdysi dávno si lidé mysleli, že v horách žijí nestvůry. V době osvícenství mnozí cestovatelé stoupali na hřebeny, aby zakusili vznešeno. Nedlouho poté alpinisté horečně dobývali vrcholy a štíty ve jménu vlasti. Odkdy dokážou hory tolik fascinovat lidskou mysl a co nutí nesčetné dobrodruhy, aby v horských výšinách znovu a znovu riskovali zdraví i život?

This book explores gaps in communication, the boundaries of photography and language, and their interconnection in light of the fact that image and language are often complementary. If language and photographs are the most common carriers of our cultural experience, then this book, which discusses the limitations and pitfalls of both, is also about our human limitations and cultural constructions. Photographers, art historians, media theorists, and semioticians will find much of interest to their fields, but specialist knowledge isn't required - the reader only needs to be intrigued by the functions of media, as it both expresses and confines human life.

The Story of the Lost Child is the concluding volume in the dazzling saga of two women- the brilliant, bookish Elena, and the fiery, uncontainable Lila. Both are now adults, with husbands, lovers, aging parents, and children. Their friendship has been the gravitational center of their lives. Both women fought to escape the neighborhood in which they grew up-a prison of conformity, violence, and inviolable taboos. Elena married, moved to Florence, started a family, and published several well-received books. In this final novel she has returned to Naples, drawn back as if responding to the city's obscure magnetism. Lila, on the other hand, could never free herself from the city of her birth. She has become a successful entrepreneur, but her success draws her into closer proximity with the nepotism, chauvinism, and criminal violence that infect the neighborhood. Proximity to the world she has always rejected only brings her role as its unacknowledged leader into relief.
