A Year in Impressionism
A perfect gift for art lovers or anyone interested in Impressionism, this collection of 365 pictures gathers the best of the genre's masterpieces from around the world. Covering a wide range of artists and countries associated with the movement, the book features double-page spreads with an Impressionist painting on one side and a blank page on the other, offering space for notes and reminders of significant events. The vibrant colors and dynamic brush strokes that characterize Impressionist art come fully to life in these beautifully reproduced pictures. Each day readers will encounter renowned works by Renoir, Gauguin, Degas, Cezanne, Monet, and Seurat as well as paintings by lesser- known practitioners such as Lovis Corinth, Childe Hassam, Lesser Ury, Peder Severin Kroyer, and Dame Laura Knight. Perfect for work, home, or studio this beautiful volume will brighten any room and offer inspiration every day.
Impressionism
It is often forgotten just how provocative Impressionist canvases seemed when they were first exhibited in 1874. The advocates of the new style rejected the established principles of art prevalent at that time in France. This book traces Impressionism's origins to its spread to America and Australia.
Ralph Skea shows how Impressionist artists transformed everyday subject matter. Daringly using colour and rapid brushstrokes, the Impressionists worked out of doors, creating paintings that captured the transient effects of light and feeling. Impressionism's initial shock factor gradually gave way to widespread acceptance, but only now can we appreciate how profound its influence has been on modern art.

THE FIRST EVER OFFICIAL BOOK—
Published in celebration of BTS’s 10th Anniversary, stories that go beyond what you already know about BTS, including unreleased photos, QR codes of videos, and all album information.
After taking their first step into the world on June 13, 2013, BTS will celebrate the 10th anniversary of their debut in June 2023. They have risen to the peak as an iconic global artist and during this meaningful time, they look back on their footsteps in the first official book. In doing so, BTS nurtures the power to build brighter days and they choose to take another step on a road that no one has gone before.

In individual interviews that have been conducted without a camera or makeup, they illuminate their musical journey from multiple angles and discuss its significance.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation
A shocking, hilarious and strangely tender novel about a young woman’s experiment in narcotic hibernation, aided and abetted by one of the worst psychiatrists in the annals of literature. Our narrator has many of the advantages of life, on the surface. Young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, she lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like everything else, by her inheritance. But there is a vacuum at the heart of things, and it isn’t just the loss of her parents in college, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her alleged best friend. It’s the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong?
This story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs, designed to heal us from our alienation from this world, shows us how reasonable, even necessary, that alienation sometimes is. Blackly funny, both merciless and compassionate – dangling its legs over the ledge of 9/11 – this novel is a showcase for the gifts of one of America’s major young writers working at the height of her powers.

„Výraz posledného cyklu Bencových grafík je posunutý smerom k drsnému, surovšiemu, „menej peknému“. Ani tu sa však nevytratil étos vyrovnania a harmonizácie, vychádzajúci z autorových mravných pozícií pri riešení základných otázok života. Zdanlivá anestetika Bencových grafogramov tak stojí v službe novej citlivosti.“ (Z úvodného textu Evy Kapsovej.)

In sinu Jesu
V roku 2007 sa začali uprostred ticha adorácie srdcu jedného kňaza prihovárať Pán Ježiš a Panna Mária. Z týchto slov sa zrodila kniha In sinu Jesu, ktorej stránky sa priamo dotýkajú potrieb človeka našej doby a pomáhajú mu prehĺbiť vzťah s Bohom.
Na pozadí základného motívu, ktorým je klaňanie sa eucharistickému Ježišovi a prinášanie náhrady za tých, čo sa neklaňajú, sa tu otvárajú i ďalšie témy duchovného života: modlitba, odovzdanie sa Božej prozreteľnosti, nutnosť ticha, potreba sviatostí a posvätnej liturgie, tajomstvá svätej omše, podstata kňazstva a kľúč k jeho apoštolskej plodnosti, úloha Panny Márie a svätých v našich životoch, skúsenosť hriechu a vlastnej slabosti na ceste za Kristom, túžba po nebi a obnova cirkvi na zemi.
Táto kniha, ktorej učenie sa pevne opiera o Písmo a apoštolskú Tradíciu, vyšla s cirkevným schválením pôvodne v angličtine, bola preložená do mnohých jazykov a stala sa zdrojom obnovy vnútorného života mnohých kňazov, rehoľníkov i laikov po celom svete.

The Accidental Further Adventures of the Hundred-Year-Old Man
The sequel to Jonas Jonasson's international bestseller The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared
It all begins with a hot air balloon trip and three bottles of champagne. Allan and Julius are ready for some spectacular views, but they're not expecting to land in the sea and be rescued by a North Korean ship, and they could never have imagined that the captain of the ship would be harbouring a suitcase full of contraband uranium, on a nuclear weapons mission for Kim Jong-un ...
Soon Allan and Julius are at the centre of a complex diplomatic crisis involving world figures from the Swedish foreign minister to Angela Merkel and President Trump. Things are about to get very complicated ...
Praise for The Hundred-Year-Old Man:
`A mordantly funny and loopily freewheeling debut novel about ageing disgracefully' Sunday Times

Lacná kniha A Month in Siena (-70%)
FROM THE PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING AND MAN BOOKER-SHORTLISTED AUTHOR
'Everybody should get to spend a month with Mr. Matar, looking at paintings' Zadie Smith
'Sparkles with brilliant observations on art and architecture, friendship and loss' Guardian
____________________________________
When Hisham Matar was nineteen years old he came across the Sienese School of painting for the first time. In the year in which Matar's life was shattered by the disappearance of his father the work of the great artists of Siena seemed to offer him a sense of hope. Over the years since then, Matar's feelings towards these paintings would deepen and, as he says, 'Siena began to occupy the sort of uneasy reverence the devout might feel towards Mecca or Rome or Jerusalem'.
A Month in Siena is the encounter, twenty-five years later, between the writer and the city he had worshipped from afar. It is a dazzling evocation of an extraordinary place and its effect on the writer's life. It is an immersion in painting, a consideration of grief and a profoundly moving contemplation of the relationship between art and the human condition.

1923 - The Forgotten Crisis in the Year of Hitler's Coup
The astonishing year when German democracy faced crisis and near destruction.
1923 was one of the most remarkable years of modern European history. In January, France and Belgium militarily occupied Germany's economic heartland, the Ruhr; triggering a series of crises that almost spiralled out of control. Hyperinflation plunged millions into poverty. The search for scapegoats empowered political extremes. Hitler's populism ascended to national prominence. Communists, Nazis, separatists all thought that they could use the crises to destroy democracy.
None succeeded. 1923 was the year of Hitler's first victory - and his first defeat. Fanning the flames of instability, anti-government and antisemitic sentiment, the Nazis' abortive yet pivotal putsch in a Munich beer hall failed when they were abandoned by their likeminded conservative allies.
Drawing on previously unseen sources, Mark Jones weaves together a thrilling and resonant narrative of German lives in this turbulent time. Tracing Hitler's rise, we see how political pragmatism and international cooperation eventually steered the nation away from total insurrection. A decade later, when Weimar democracy eventually succumbed to tyranny, the warnings from 1923 - rising of nationalist rhetoric, fragile European consensus, and underestimation the of the enemies of liberalism - became only too apparent.
This account of the republic's convulsions and survival offers a gripping image of a modern society in extreme crisis.
In the Year of the Jubilee (EN)
The Jubilee marks the fiftieth year of the reign of Queen Victoria. Dickensian in its sweeping scope of London life, Gissing’s "In the Year of the Jubilee" (1834) depicts the harsh and disreputable conditions of lower-middle class life at the end of the 19th century. Originally titled "Miss Lord of Camberwell," the novel depicts the adventures of suburban Nancy Lord and an exploration of South London.

KDO: Pink Floyd jsou nepochybně jednou z nejzásadnějších skupin hudební historie. Jejich experimentální rocková muzika ovlivnila miliony posluchačů a inspirovala několik generací hudebníků. Vždy je zdobil progresivní přístup při hledání nových možností, kladli důraz na koncepční propojení zvuku s obrazem. Měli jedinečné nápady a pořádali originální výpravné koncerty. Od roku 1964, kdy vznikli, natočili čtrnáct studiových alb. Těžko hledat slavnější art-rockovou skupinu!

Kompilační album A Foot In The Door vyšlo původně v roce 2011 na CD a obsahuje nejznámější skladby skupiny z období 1967 - 1994 včetně Wish You Were Here, Comfortably Numb, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, See Emily Play nebo High Hopes.

Trading in the Zone (2. vydání)
Býčí trh v akciích znamenal i býčí trh publikací, zabývajících se tím, jak na akciích vydělat. Tradingová scéna byla zahlcena nápady - některé byly dobré a jiné špatné, některé byly originální a jiné pouze vykrádaly předchozí práce. Občas se ale stane, že určitý spisovatel přijde s něčím, co ho vydělí z davu, s něčím výjimečným. Jedním z takových spisovatelů je Mark Douglas. Jeho kniha Trading in the Zone představuje roky výzkumu a rozjímání - celoživotní dílo, které je pro nás, profesionální obchodníky, klenotem. Trading in the Zone je hloubkovou studií výzev, kterým se musíme postavit, rozhodneme-li se začít s obchodováním.
Pro začátečníka představuje jedinou výzvu, zjistit, jak vydělat peníze. Jakmile takový začátečník zjistí, že tipy, rady brokerů a další způsoby, jak ospravedlnit nákup či prodej nefungují vždycky, pochopí, že si buď musí koupit nějakou obchodní strategii, nebo ji sám vyvinout. Potom už by snad obchodování mělo být jednoduché, ne? Stačí se držet pravidel a peníze vám samy spadnou do klína. V tomto bodě, ne-li dříve, začátečník zjistí, že obchodování může být velmi snadno extrémně frustrující. Tato zkušenost vede k tomu, že statisticky 95% obchodníků přijde o všechny peníze během prvního roku obchodování. S akciemi je to podobné - analytici poukazují na to, že většina obchodníků s akciemi selhává i v provedení jednoduchého scénáře nakoupení a podržení investice.
Proč se lidem, kteří jsou jinak extrémně úspěšní, nedaří, co se týče obchodu? Rodí se snad člověk obchodníkem? Mark Douglas říká, že ne. Nezbytné je podle něj získat obchodnickou mysl. Zní to jednoduše, ale ve skutečnosti je obchodnická mysl zcela odlišná od všeho, s čím se setkáváme v běžném životě. A právě tato kniha vás naučí obchodnickou mysl vytrénovat.
