A Life in Illustration
What does an illustrator actually do and in what fields can one work? Today's most successful illustrators present their work and talk about their experiences in one of life's most beautiful careers. Illustration is no longer just illustration. Today, illustrators write and create children's picture books and graphic novels; they structure information through infographics; they design logos, fonts, and other typographical applications; they contribute to the editorial design of newspapers and magazines; they apply their talents to advertising and fashion; and they develop and produce their own products on the basis of their creations. Despite the fact that all of these activities are based on illustration, each of them has its own rules and its own specialists, tasks, and job descriptions to go along with them. Against this background, A life in Illustration gives an insider's look at the diverse facets of this creative medium through extensive portraits of today's leading illustrators. Perceptive texts and images describe the work and day to- day activities of outstanding talents including Christoph Niemann, Andrea Ventura, Jan van der Veken, Peter Grundy, Jessica Hische, and the New York Times's Jonathan Corum. Stars on the international scene give their personal insights into the Handson aspects of working in specific areas of illustration. Editorial illustrator Olaf Hajek and fashion illustrator Liselotte Watkins, for example, explain how a subject must not only be depicted with savvy, but also in the style of the publication in which the work will appear. Information graphics specialists Jan Schwochow and Francesco Franchi explain why the content of their work must be absolutely correct --and how it often needs to be researched and visually dissected with dogged perseverance. Children's picture books creator Oliver Jeffers explains why the mastery of visual storytelling and a sense for timing and the development of narration are essential to a story's success. Although the work of the featured commercial illustrators is very different, all of them tell of the high demand placed on them in terms of teamwork, sensitivity to client needs, and creative implementation. These aspects are not necessarily expected by those who still think of illustrators as tradespeople who simply execute the ideas that are given to them. A life in Illustration is a strikingly personal documentation of what working in various jobs at the intersection of art and creativity, amid personal work, teaching assignments, clients, and "bread and butter" projects actually feels like. As such, the book is not only inspiring for those already working as illustrators, but also reveals perspectives and hurdles for those considering a professional future in this field.

A Little Life
A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara is an immensely powerful and heartbreaking novel of brotherly love and the limits of human endurance.
When four graduates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. There is kind, handsome Willem, an aspiring actor; JB, a quick-witted, sometimes cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their centre of gravity. Over the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he'll not only be unable to overcome - but that will define his life forever.

A Life on Our Planet
With a new afterword, Why You Are Here: A speech on the opening of the COP26 climate summit
As a young man, I felt I was out there in the wild, experiencing the untouched natural world - but it was an illusion. The tragedy of our time has been happening all around us, barely noticeable from day to day - the loss of our planet's wild places, its biodiversity.
I have been witness to this decline. A Life on Our Planet contains my witness statement, and my vision for the future - the story of how we came to make this, our greatest mistake, and how, if we act now, we can yet put it right.
We have the opportunity to create the perfect home for ourselves and restore the wonderful world we inherited.
All we need is the will do so.

My Life With The Walter Boys - Életem a Walter fiúkkal
Átkozott tökéletesség!
Jackie nem szereti a meglepetéseket. A káosz maga az ellenség! A legjobb módja annak, hogy a sikeres, elfoglalt szülei felfigyeljenek rá, az, ha tökéletes lesz ő is. Tökéletes külső, tökéletes jegyek - a tökéletes gyerek. És akkor...
1. sokk: Jackie családja életét veszti egy szörnyű autóbalesetben.
2. sokk: Jackie-nek az ország másik végébe kell költöznie,
hogy a Walter családdal éljen - az új gyámjaival.
3. sokk: Walteréknek tizenkét fiuk van. (Vagyis tizenegy,
de Parker teljesen úgy viselkedik, mint egy fiú.)
Jackie-nek le kell cserélnie az A típusú személyiségét és New York-i lakását egy coloradói tanyára és a hozzá járó vad Walter fiúkra. A lányt az ellenség veszi körül - hangos, rendetlen, idegesítő fiúk, akiknek gőzük sincs a személyes tér fogalmáról. Oké, a legidősebb srácok közül néhányan kifejezetten gyönyörűek. De attól még idegesítők mind. És Jackie nem nagyképű vagy unalmas, bármit is mondanak! De ezt bebizonyítani már más kérdés. Hogyan tud majd beilleszkedni és továbblépni, miközben a szülei emlékét is életben kell tartania azzal, hogy mindenben a tökéletességre törekszik?
A Wattpad-szenzációként induló történet, melyet a kirobbanó sikere a hivatalos kiadásig röpített.
Moja Real Life Story
NIČ NIE JE NEMOŽNÉ!
Toto je môj príbeh. Moja Real Life story spoza kamery. Príbeh, ako som sa s mojím bratom dvojčaťom a lietajúcou vaňou preslávil na YouTube. Ako som dostal rakovinu a ako Boh prijal moju bezočivú výzvu: „Ak existuješ, tak ma uzdrav!“ Ako naša sestra zomrela pri leteckom nešťastí a ako sme to zvládli. A ako mi napokon došlo, že mnohé „náhody“ v mojom živote vôbec neboli náhodami.
Ak si myslíš, že Boh nejestvuje, že je nuda a hlúposť v neho veriť, radšej by si mal túto knihu pustiť z ruky.
Alebo… ju práve do rúk zobrať?!
Philipp Mickenbecker (1997 – 2021), známy fanúšik outdoorových aktivít, perfekcionista a youtuber s miliónmi sledovateľov. S dvojčaťom Johannesom sú dôkazom, že pre Real Life Guys naozaj nie je nič nemožné.
Lacná kniha Two Murders in my Double Life (-50%)
In Josef Ĺ kvoreckĂ˝'s first novel written in English, the narrator lives in two radically dissimilar worlds: the exile world of the post-Communist Czech Republic where old feuds, treacherous betrayals, and friendships persevere, and the comfortable, albeit bland world of middle-class Canada. Murder intrudes upon both world. One features a young female sleuth, a college beauty queen, jealousy in the world of academia, and a neat conclusion. The other is a tragedy caused by evil social forces and philosophies, in which a web of lies insidiously entangles Sidonia, the narrator's wife. A brilliantly stylish tour de force in which the bright, sarcastic comedy of one tale sharply contrasts with the dark, elegiac bitterness of the other, Two Murders in My Double Life confirms Ĺ kvoreckĂ˝'s reputation as a versatile and engaging writer.
