Amazing Slovakia
In the past decade, traveler and photographer Filip Kulisev, MQEP (Master Qualified European Photographer) and FBIPP (Fellow of the British Institute of Professional Photography), has been recognized as one of the world’s best landscape photographers. Amazing Slovakia is his ninth book, in which for the first time he exclusively focuses on his native country and the number of remarkable places it has to offer. Slovakia is shown here in photographs taken from a bird’s eye view. This approach allowed him to capture on film the only wild herd of European bison in Slovakia, the Morské Oko Lake hidden in the lush forests of Vihorlat and the Domašín Meander of the Váh River, which bears a striking resemblance to its more famous counterpart on the Colorado River in America’s Grand Canyon. The little known Čabraď Castle in Central Slovakia is proof that no one necessarily has to travel to Peru to see something as remarkable as Machu Picchu. Such natural beauty is not confined to Slovakia’s most famous tourist destinations such as the High Tatras and Slovak Paradise; it can also be seen in many lesser known gems scattered throughout the countryside. For Filip, however, Slovakia has much more than just magnificent natural beauty. Its rich history has also had a tremendous impact upon the country over the last millennium. The castle ruins, magnificent chateaux, and the many abandoned monasteries and medieval churches are evidence that Slovakia has always been at the crossroads of history in Europe. The charms of the country are divided into geographical units: Western, Central and Eastern Slovakia.
Theodor Pištěk. Senzační realismus. Sensational Realism
Publikace Senzační realismus dokumentuje ojedinělou Pištěkovu výstavní prezentaci v Alšově jihočeské galerii v Hluboké nad Vltavou, která byla zaměřena výhradně na malířovu hyperrealistickou fázi, s lehkými náznaky přesahu k jeho evropským či americkým druhům. Malíř byl na tomto výstavním projektu představen v pokud možno komplexním přehledu jeho nejznámějších a ikonických děl, které vznikaly zejména od první poloviny 70. let 20. století do první poloviny následné dekády; malíř se však ke svému svébytnému realismu průběžně vracel až do doby nedávné. V kontextu tvorby Theodora Pištěka (nar. 25. října 1932 v Praze) je tak navýsost napínavé srovnání jeho přístupu s americkým hyperrealistou Richardem Estesem, a také s tendencí evropského malířství, které z realismu vycházelo (Jacques Monory, Gerhard Richter, Gérard Gasiorowski) či na něj bezprostředně navázalo (Gottfried Heinvein).
The catalogue Sensational Realism illustrates a unique exhibition of Pištěk’s artwork in the South Bohemian Gallery in Hluboká nad Vltavou, which focused specifically on his hyper-realistic era with a hint of his European and American comrades’ paintings. The painter was introduced in a complex overview by his pivotal and iconic works from the beginning of the 1970s till the first half of the next decade, nevertheless, he was returning to his distinctive realism until recently. In the context of Theodor Pištěk’s (born 25th October 1932 in Prague) work it’s utterly thrilling on the one hand to compare his approach to American hyperrealist Richard Estes, and on the other, to the tendencies of European painting, which are based on realism (Jacques Monory, Gerhard Richter or Gérard Gasiorowski) or they immediately follow up on realism (Gottfried Helnwein).

Lacná kniha The Europeans (-70%)
The Europeans is a richly enthralling, panoramic cultural history of nineteenth-century Europe, told through the intertwined lives of three remarkable people: a great singer, Pauline Viardot, a great writer, Ivan Turgenev, and a great connoisseur, Pauline's husband Louis. Their passionate, ambitious lives were bound up with an astonishing array of writers, composers and painters all trying to make their way through the exciting, prosperous and genuinely pan-European culture that came about as a result of huge economic and technological change. This culture - through trains, telegraphs and printing - allowed artists of all kinds to exchange ideas and make a living, shuttling back and forth across the whole continent from the British Isles to Imperial Russia, as they exploited a new cosmopolitan age.
The Europeans is Orlando Figes' masterpiece. Surprising, beautifully written, it describes huge changes through intimate details, little-known stories and through the lens of Turgenev and the Viardots' touching, strange love triangle. Events which we now see as central to European high culture are made completely fresh, allowing the reader to revel in the sheer precariousness with which the great salons, premieres and bestsellers came into existence.

Príbeh knihy:
Táto kniha vznikla s cieľom, aby svet bol lepším miestom pre život. Aj pre ten váš.
Písal ju život sám. Mladý a úspešný podnikateľ mal veľký cieľ: aby sa raz, keď s milovanou ženou založí rodinu,stal dobrým manželom a otcom. Najlepším, akým len môže byť. K jeho cieľu sa našla cesta. Stretol matku, ktorá založila a šesť rokov vedie medzinárodnú kampaň na podporu dojčenia a svoje tri deti dojčila spolu desať rokov. Z ich priateľstva vznikla myšlienka vydania knihy, ktorú si ale nemôžete zakúpiť. Lebo na predaj nie je kniha, ale cenné informácie z dôveryhodných zdrojov, súvislosti, návrhy riešení, z ktorých si môžete niečo zobrať do svojho života. O dojčení, výchove, úspechu, budovaní vzťahov.
Nekupujte knihu. Ale šancu na lepší život, hodnotnejšie vzťahy.

Rozdeľuj a panuj
Čo vznikne, ak spojíme politickú moc, finančné prostriedky a vágne pravidlá? Odpoveďou je príležitosť. Táto publikácia predstavuje najrozsiahlejšiu analýzu rozdeľovania verejných prostriedkov na Slovensku a dopadov tohto konania na volebnú súťaž. Pokrýva distribúciu dotácií do obcí z troch celoštátnych programov v rokoch 2003 až 2018, teda za obdobie pôsobenia piatich rôznych vlád. Kniha ukazuje, že delenie zdrojov na Slovensku slúži politickým stranám ako nástroj odmeňovania vlastných členov a trestania ich rivalov. Navyše, konkrétne stratégie alokácie dotácií preukázateľne deformujú voľby do miestnej samosprávy, keď časti starostov poskytujú neodôvodnené výhody na ich ceste za znovuzvolením. Kniha tak dokladá, že na svete existuje len málo vernejších spojencov, než sú politika a peniaze. Peter Spáč je docentom politológie na Masarykovej univerzite v Brne. Odborne sa zameriava na voľby, volebné správanie, verejnú politiku a distribúciu verejných zdrojov. Je autorom a spoluautorom viacerých kníh o slovenskej politike a tiež textov v časopisoch Government Information Quarterly, Contemporary Politics, Public Choice, East European Politics and Societies alebo Politics.

Lacná kniha Excavating Kafka (-90%)
Kafka's features, and that dreaded word, Kafkaesque, are known to millions who have never read serious literature. Generations of academics and critics have maintained the image of Franz Kafka as a tortured seer whose works defy interpretation. In Excavating Kafka James Hawes reveals the truth that lies beneath the image of a middle-European Nostradamus with a typographically irresistible name. The real Franz Kafka was no angst-ridden paranoid but a well-groomed young man-about-town who frequented brothels, had regular sex with a penniless-but-pretty girl and subscribed to upmarket pornography (published by the very man who published Kafka's first stories). Excavating Kafka debunks a number of key facets of the Kafka-Myth, including the idea that Kafka was the archetypal genius neglected in his lifetime; that he was stuck in a dead-end job and struggling to find time to write; that he was tormented by fear of sex; that he had a uniquely terrible, domineering father who had no understanding of his son's needs; that his literature is mysterious and opaque; that he constructs fantasy-worlds in which innocent everymen live in fear of mysterious and totalitarian powers-that-be. Written with the panache of a supremely gifted comic writer, Excavating Kafka is an engaging and involving reassessment of a major figure of literary modernism that will be welcomed and enjoyed by students of Kafka and by general readers alike.
