The Great Gatsby - Velký Gatsby
Anglicko-česká zrcadlová četba pro středně pokročilé. Velký Gatsby je nejslavnějším románem Francise Scotta Fitzgeralda. Příběh se odehrává v New Yorku 20. let minulého století, kdy nečekaná hospodářská prosperita přinesla i ztrátu morálních hodnot. Jay Gatsby se ve snaze získat milovanou dívku dostane do nejvyšších vrstev společnosti, kde je vyhledáván pro své bohatství i tajemství, jež ho obestírá, ale nikdy do ní opravdu nezapadne, neboť pro něj jsou stále nejvyšší hodnotou vztahy mezi lidmi. Gatsbyho tragický konec je absurdním omylem, jako by jen podtrhoval prázdnotu a povrchnost světa bohatých.
The Great Gatsby is the most famous novel by Francis Scott Fitzgerald. The story takes place in New York of 1920s, when unexpected economic prosperity brought about the loss of moral values. Jay Gatsby, trying to get his beloved girl gets into the high society, becoming popular for his richness and mystery that exists around him, but never really fits into it, because human relationships are still the highest value for him. Gatsbys tragic end is an absurd mistake, as if it only emphasizes the emptiness and superficiality of the rich world.
En ten tulipán
Detektívny román En ten tulipán z roku 1955 vychádza prvý raz v slovenskom preklade, a hoci patrí k menej známym dielam Agathy Christie, milovníci tvorby legendárnej autorky si aj tentoraz prídu na svoje. Popri famóznom Herculovi Poirotovi v nej vystupuje aj detektívova výkonná, takmer dokonalá sekretárka slečna Lemonová.
A je to práve slečna Lemonová, kto upozorní Hercula Poirota na čudné udalosti v študentskom penzióne Tulipán na Hickory Road, ktorý spravuje jej sestra pani Hubbardová. Za normálnych okolností by drobné krádeže sotva vzbudili záujem slávneho detektíva. Keď si však prečíta bizarný zoznam ukradnutých a zničených vecí - vrátane stetoskopu, pudrenky, starých nohavíc, bonboniéry, rozstrihaného ruksaka a diamantového prsteňa, ktorý sa neskôr našiel v polievke -, musí blahoželať pani Hubbardovej k „jedinečnému a úžasnému rébusu“. Zoznam nedáva vôbec žiadny zmysel, no Poirotovi neschádza z mysle: Ak sú to len obyčajné krádeže a páchateľom je neškodný kleptoman, prečo sú potom obyvatelia penziónu takí vystrašení?

Zrcadlová četba - Great Expectations - Nadějné vyhlídky (B1-B2)
Příběh malého Pipa začíná v bažinatém kraji Kentu. Když tam jednou o Vánocích náhodou potká uprchlého vězně, netuší, že se jeho život už brzy navždy změní. Sled úžasných událostí následujících po tomto setkání a tragický, záhadný příběh slečny Havishamové a její krásné, ale chladné adoptivní dcery Estelly činí z Nadějných vyhlídek jedno z nejoblíbenějších děl Charlese Dickense.
The story of young Pip starts on marshes of Kent. When he accidentally meets an escaped convict one Christmas Eve, he has no idea that his life is about to change forever. The amazing events following that encounter, and the tragic, mysterious tale of Miss Havisham and her beautiful but cold adoptive daughter Estella, have made Great Expectations one of Dicken’s best-loved works.
Lacná kniha Burning britain (-25%)
Hudební tisk konce sedmdesátých let si už punku přestal všímat, považoval ho za ukončenou kapitolu. V podzemí ale začínaly vznikat nové kapely, které záhy všechny vyvedly z omylu. Tento punk byl mnohem tvrdší,agresivnější a více politický a skupiny jako The Exploited nebo GBH se nesmazatelně zapsaly do hudební historie. Kniha podrobně mapuje britskou hudební scénu let 1980-1984 a region po regionu dokumentuje kapely a vydavatelství, díky nimž toto období undergroundové kultury nyní považujeme za jedno z nejpřínosnějších.

100 Quotes by Gautama Buddha: Great Philosophers & Their Inspiring Thoughts (EN)
Gautama Buddha is also known as Siddharta Gautama, or simply the Buddha, which means "Awakened" or "Enlightened". Born a prince, he chose a path of ascetism only to realize that it was as profound an illusion as self-indulgence. He achieved Enlightenment after 49 days of meditation; his awakening led him to discover the cause of suffering and the ways to eliminate it.

The Great Gatsby (EN)
“Gatsby?” asked Daisy urgently. “What Gatsby?” Could it be the same young army lieutenant whom Daisy Fay met five years ago – and who owns a sumptuous house on Long Island, where New York society enjoys the best parties on offer? Is it just coincidence that Gatsby lives across the bay from Daisy – now married to wealthy polo-player Tom Buchanan? As one man’s mysterious dream moves towards its ultimately tragic conclusion, Midwesterner Nick Carraway is drawn into the dark world of Gatsby’s past and present – a world of hidden frustrations and superficial relationships which perfectly illustrates the “careless and confused” nature of America’s Jazz Age.
