Lacná kniha The Wisdom of Sally Red Shoes (-70%)
Loved Ruth Hogan's The Keeper of Lost Things? Keep on reading...
Masha is drowning.
Once a spirited, independent woman with a rebellious streak, her life has been forever changed by a tragic event twelve years ago.
Unable to let go of her grief, she finds solace in the silent company of the souls of her local Victorian cemetery and at the town's lido, where she seeks refuge underwater - safe from the noise and the pain.
But a chance encounter with two extraordinary women - the fabulous and wise Kitty Muriel, a convent girl-turned-magician's wife-turned-seventy-something-roller-disco-fanatic, and the mysterious Sally Red Shoes, a bag lady with a prodigious voice - opens up a new world of possibilities, and the chance to start living again.
Until the fateful day when the past comes roaring back...
In the vein of her bestselling debut The Keeper of Lost Things, Ruth Hogan's second novel introduces a new cast of wonderful characters, both ordinary and charmingly eccentric, who guide us through a moving exploration of the simple human connections that make life worth living.

Lacná kniha Usměvavý Buddha (-90%)
Čtyřicátník a uznávaný počítačový expert, inženýr Václav Paleček má pocit, že se na něj v poslední době lepí smůla. Přes všechnu snahu se mu nedaří udržet uspokojivé partnerské vztahy. Manželství s Eliškou ztroskotalo a bývalá žena mu brání ve styku s dcerkou Andulkou. I nová partnerka Hanny, o níž si myslel, že je ta pravá a že s ní stráví zbytek života, se s ním nečekaně rozchází. Václav ve chvílích zdrcující samoty vede podivný dialog s teakovou soškou smějícího se Buddhy, kterou si přivezl z Ameriky. Hledá záchytný bod, marně rekapituluje, vše mu uniká mezi prsty, ztrácí energii a chuť pokračovat. Ale nerezignuje, snaží se bojovat, ale ale vždy rychle ochabuje. Až souhra náhod mu nabídne novou životní šanci, práci v daleké cizině, možnost začít znovu a odpoutat se od všeho, co ho sužuje. Váhá. Poradí mu usměvavý Buddha?
Román je příběhem člověka, který hledá sám sebe. Přesto, že je v práci úspěšný, nenachází v sobě harmonii a štěstí. Žije ze dne na den. Chybí mu pocit plnosti života. Teprve cesta do jiné kultury mu poskytne nový impuls, spatří svět i život ze zcela jiné perspektivy. Bude konečně šťastný?

The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air
"A dark jewel of a book . . . intoxicating" - Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Six of Crows
Nominated for the CILIP CARNEGIE MEDAL 2019
Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.
And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.
One terrible morning, Jude and her sisters see their parents murdered in front of them. The terrifying assassin abducts all three girls to the world of Faerie, where Jude is installed in the royal court but mocked and tormented by the Faerie royalty for being mortal.
As Jude grows older, she realises that she will need to take part in the dangerous deceptions of the fey to ever truly belong.
But the stairway to power is fraught with shadows and betrayal. And looming over all is the infuriating, arrogant and charismatic Prince Cardan . . .
Dramatic and thrilling fantasy blends seamlessly with enthralling storytelling to create a fully realised and seductive world, brimful of magic and romance.
Buddha Cesta k vnitřní rovnováze
Pocity ovlivňují náš život víc než cokoli jiného. Propůjčují nám křídla, ale mohou nás také dovést až na pokraj zoufalství. To věděl i Buddha, a proto nás učil, jak se můžeme z jejich moci vysvobodit. S pomocí takzvaných sedmi cenných vlastností - pozornosti, přiměřeného úsilí, zkoumající mysli, radosti, soustředění, vnitřního uvolnění a vyrovnanosti - budeme schopni stále přesněji zkoumat a vnímat svět svých pocitů. A čím lépe svým pocitům porozumíme, tím budeme v kontaktu s nimi svobodnější. Místo toho, abychom se pachtili za příjemnými pocity a před těmi nepříjemnými utíkali, budeme se raději učit své pocity vyrovnaně akceptovat, odpoutávat se od obtížných pocitů a probouzet v sobě pocity, které působí prospěšně.
Dělat jako Buddha
Aniž by kdy Buddha vkročil do kanceláře, věděl, že bude-li lidem ukazovat, jak správně pracovat, pomůže jim nalézt stezku k probuzení.
Užíváte si svou práci?
Nyní potřebujeme jeho rady více než kdy dříve. Až příliš mnoho z nás pracuje přesčas a potýká se s náročnými šéfy i kolegy a neustálým stresem. Potřebujeme někoho, kdo nám připomene, že existuje i lepší cesta. Díky Buddhově moudrosti, jež je jádrem každé kapitoly, vám kniha Dělat jako Buddha pomůže přestat si zkracovat cestu, naučit se všímavosti, pečovat o sebe i o druhé, odolat prokrastinaci a také začlenit Buddhovy nestárnoucí rady do vašeho moderního pracovního života.
Najděte to pravé pro vás, vaše zdraví a zdravý rozum
Je načase probudit se a začít pracovat osvícenějším způsobem – takovým, jenž je správný pro vás, vaše fyzické i duševní zdraví a také pro okolní svět.

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 Perks of Being a Wallflower
Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

Na konci cesty - Krematórium v Bratislave - At the End of the Road The Bratislava Crematorium
Kniha sa podrobne zaoberá mimoriadnym architektonickým dielom - bratislavským krematóriom. Postavili ho pred pol storočím (1968) za neobyčajne priaznivej súhry okolností, no predchádzal tomu dlhý zápas o jeho zriadenie, ktorého počiatky siahajú až do roku 1889. Preto kniha približuje aj históriu moderného kremačného hnutia v Európe so zreteľom na dlhý zápas mesta Bratislava o krematórium, ďalej sa zaoberá domácimi a zahraničnými architektonickými podnetmi, ktoré ovplyvnili architektúru objektu. Okrem príbehu samotnej budovy a urnového hája, v ktorom stojí, sa dočítate o tvorivej dráhe autora budovy, architekta Ferdinanda Milučkého, príslušníka prvej povojnovej slovenskej architektonickej generácie, ale aj súvislostiach vzniku pozoruhodných výtvarných diel z areálu krematória - sôch od troch špičkových slovenských výtvarníkov. Text Matúša Dullu v slovenčine a angličtine sprevádzajú umelecké fotografie Olje Triašky Stefanović. Snímky citlivo zachytávajú premeny krematória a prostredia, v ktorom sa nachádza, počas jednotlivých ročných období. Publikácia vychádza pri príležitosti päťdesiateho výročia vzniku prvého slovenského krematória.
The Education of an Idealist
'Her highly personal and reflective memoir ... is a must-read for anyone who cares about our role in a changing world' Barack Obama
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY:
The New York Times * Time * The Economist * The Washington Post * Vanity Fair * Times Literary Supplement
'What can one person do?' In this vibrant, galvanizing memoir, human rights advocate and Pulitzer-Prize winning writer Samantha Power offers an urgent response to this question.
As she traces her path from Irish immigrant to war correspondent and activist to eventually becoming the youngest-ever US Ambassador to the United Nations, Power writes with a unique blend of suspenseful storytelling, vivid character portraits and disarming honesty.
Her account illuminates the challenges of navigating the halls of power while trying to put one's ideals into practice (and raise two young children along the way), and it shows how - even in the face of daunting challenges - each of us can make a difference.

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
"Everything you would expect from Collins is
here: fraught teenage love; plenty of violence... the themes of
friendship, betrayal, authority and oppression will please and thrill"
The Guardian
"It works beautifully... please don't
make us wait another decade" The Times
Ambition will fuel him.
Competition
will drive him.
But power has its price.
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth
annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus
Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games.
The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its
fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able
to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuvre his fellow students to mentor
the winning tribute.
The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment
of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest
of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - ; every
choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favour or failure, triumph
or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside
the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute...
and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire
to survive no matter what it takes.
Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt
Spanning a lifetime of love and loss, crossing borders and oceans, Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt, co-authored by her son Harry Whittaker, draws Lucinda Riley's Seven Sisters series to its stunning, unforgettable conclusion.
1928, Paris
A boy is found, moments from death, and taken in by a kindly family. Gentle, precocious, talented, he flourishes in his new home, and the family show him a life he hadn't dreamed possible. But he refuses to speak a word about who he really is.
As he grows into a young man, falling in love and taking classes at the prestigious Conservatoire de Paris, he can almost forget the terrors of his past, or the promise he has vowed to keep. But across Europe an evil is rising, and no-one's safety is certain. In his heart, he knows the time will come where he must flee once more.
2008, the Aegean
The seven sisters are gathered together for the first time, on board the Titan to say a final goodbye to the enigmatic father they loved so dearly.
To the surprise of everyone, it is the missing sister who Pa Salt has chosen to entrust with the clue to their pasts. But for every truth revealed, another question emerges. The sisters must confront the idea that their adored father was someone they barely knew. And even more shockingly: that these long-buried secrets may still have consequences for them today.
