Lacná kniha The Danish girl (-70%)
Loosely inspired by a true story, this tender portrait of marriage asks: What do you do when the person you love has to change? It starts with a question, a simple favour asked by a wife of her husband while both are painting in their studio, setting off a transformation neither can anticipate. Uniting fact and fiction into an original romantic vision, The Danish Girl eloquently portrays the unique intimacy that defines every marriage and the remarkable story of Lili Elbe, a pioneer in transgender history, and the woman torn between loyalty to her marriage and her own ambitions and desires. The Danish Girl is an evocative and deeply moving novel about one of the most passionate and unusual love stories of the 20th century.

She Gets the Girl
Alex and Molly are two girls who don't belong on the same planet, let alone the same college campus...
Alex Blackwood is a little bit headstrong, with a dash of chaos and a whole lot of flirt. She knows how to get the girl. Keeping her on the other hand... not so much.
Molly Parker has everything in her life totally in control, except for her complete awkwardness with just about anyone besides her mum. She knows she's in love with the impossibly cool Cora Myers. She just... hasn't actually talked to her yet.
When the girls' paths cross unexpectedly, and Alex discovers Molly's hidden crush, they realise they might have a common interest after all. Because maybe if Alex can help Molly to get her dream girl, she can prove to her ex that she's serious about love.
As the two embark on their five-step plans to get their girls to fall for them, though, they both begin to wonder if maybe they're the ones falling... for each other.
The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea
Don't chase fate. Let fate chase you.
For generations, deadly storms have ravaged Mina's homeland. Her people believe the Sea God, once their protector, now curse them with death and despair. To appease him, each year a maiden is thrown into the sea, in the hopes that one day the 'true bride' will be chosen and end the suffering.
Many believe Shim Cheong - Mina's brother's beloved - to be the legendary true bride. But on the night Cheong is sacrificed, Mina's brother follows her, even knowing that to interfere is a death sentence. To save her brother, Mina throws herself into the water in Cheong's stead.
Swept away to the Spirit Realm, a magical city of lesser gods and mythical beasts, Mina finds the Sea God, trapped in an enchanted sleep. With the help of a mysterious young man and a motley crew of demons, gods and spirits, Mina sets out to wake him and bring an end to the storms once and for all.
But she doesn't have much time: a human cannot live long in the land of the spirits. And there are those who would do anything to keep the Sea God from waking...

Publikácia je nominovaná na výročnú cenu časopisu Pamiatky a múzeá 2020. Vydaniu
katalógu predchádzala rovnomenná výstava, nad ktorou prevzalo záštitu Britské veľvyslanectvo na

Slovenský text vrátane registrov a konkordancie sprevádza anglický preklad. Zahŕňa všetky
grafické diela vo fonde galérie, ktoré s Britskými ostrovmi spája autor predlohy, rytec alebo

sčasti tematicky, resp. vzhľadom na žáner. Najstaršie listy pochádzajú z knižného vydania
Vergíliových veršov v anglickom preklade Johna Drydena z roku 1697. Ďalším relatívne uceleným
súborom grafických listov je sedem vedút s najvýznamnejšími architektonickými dielami v Dubline
od dielo popredného írskeho grafika a rytca Jamesa Maltona, ktoré vytvoril v 90. rokoch 18.
storočia. V kolekcii však prevládajú portréty. Ilustrujú dejiny ostrovnej monarchie v dobe, keď
vznikli. To bol účel, pre ktorý ich v 19. storočí vydával Hermann Julis Meyer ako súčasť
populárnych konverzačných príručiek. Pozornosť však treba obrátiť najmä na veľký grafický list,
reprodukujúci podobizeň vojvodkyne z Devonshiru od Joshua Reynoldsa. Katalóg voľne nadväzuje
na katalóg talianskej grafiky z roku 2019. Na záver vysvetlenie: zelená farba obálky je farbou

Poster Girl
A fallen regime. A missing child. A chance at freedom.
By the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divergent, Poster Girl is a haunting adult dystopian mystery that explores the expanding role of surveillance on society - an inescapable reality that we welcome all too easily.
WHAT'S RIGHT IS RIGHT. Sonya Kantor knows this slogan - she lived by it for most of her life. For decades, everyone in the Seattle-Portland megalopolis lived under it, as well as constant surveillance in the form of the Insight, an ocular implant that tracked every word and every action, rewarding or punishing by a rigid moral code set forth by the Delegation.
Then there was a revolution. The Delegation fell. Its most valuable members were locked in the Aperture, a prison on the outskirts of the city. And everyone else, now free from the Insight's monitoring, went on with their lives.
Sonya, former poster girl for the Delegation, has been imprisoned for ten years when an old enemy comes to her with a deal: find a missing girl who was stolen from her parents by the old regime, and earn her freedom. The path Sonya takes to find the child will lead her through an unfamiliar, crooked post-Delegation world where she finds herself digging deeper into the past - and her family's dark secrets - than she ever wanted to.
