Andy Warhol byl v šedesátých a sedmdesátých letech sice poměrně výraznou postavou newyorské umělecké scény, ale jako mnoho jiných umělců byl spíš introvert a svůj status celebrity přijímal poměrně zdráhavě. Kniha Filosofie Andyho Warhola z roku 1975 představuje nebývale přímočarý vhled do nitra výstřední a v mnoha ohledech pozoruhodné Warholovy osobnosti. A to nejen v podobě zamyšlení nad láskou, jídlem, krásou, prací, penězi, úspěchem a dalšími celkem běžnými fenomény, ale i ve způsobu, jakým je autor předkládá. Na povrch tu vystupují nejrůznější Warholovy obsese a obavy, libůstky a výstřelky. Text se zcela plynule pohybuje mezi několika polohami a seriózní úvahy nad okolním světem střídají aforistické průpovídky a provokativní výkřiky, místy téměř dětinsky sebestředné. Ale právě v tom, s jakou důsledností a odzbrojující upřímností Warhol představuje svět, jak ho vidí on sám, tkví kouzlo téhle knihy.
Nicky Claus works with his three uncles in a magic toyshop. When he notices a

Jan Zábrana patřil k nejvýraznějším českým spisovatelům a překladatelům druhé poloviny 20. století. Komunistický režim mu až na malé výjimky umožnil publikovat pouze překlady, jeho vlastní tvorba zůstala do roku 1989 zcela ve stínu jeho rozsáhlého a uznávaného překladatelského díla. Teprve během devadesátých let minulého století, po rozkrytí celé jeho tvůrčí šíře, se v úplnosti ukázalo, jak pozoruhodně mnohostranným autorem Zábrana byl.
V prvním listopadovém týdnu roku 2015 uspořádal Ústav translatologie FF UK za podpory Ministerstva kultury České republiky konferenci s názvem Jan Zábrana: básník, překladatel, čtenář. Výstup z tohoto odborného setkání představuje stejnojmenná kolektivní monografie pod zkušeným edičním vedením Evy Kalivodové a Petra Eliáše, prezentující rozmanitost životní, překladatelské i literárně tvůrčí cesty Jana Zábrany. Esejistické i analytické stati řady přispěvatelů zvučných jmen doplňují vzpomínkové bloky Zábranových redakčních spolupracovníků, vstupy strážkyně básníkova odkazu Marie Zábranové a také ukázky prací nadějných Zábranových oborových pokračovatelů. Texty provázejí archivní dokumentární fotografie a reprodukce unikátních písemností osobního i pracovního charakteru.

". . . a wonderful teaching tool for those who are welcoming refugees into their community."—The New York Times With haunting echoes of the current refugee crisis this beautifully illustrated book explores the unimaginable decisions made as a family leave their home and everything they know to escape the turmoil and tragedy brought by war. This book will stay with you long after the last page is turned. From the author: The Journey is actually a story about many journeys, and it began with the story of two girls I met in a refugee center in Italy. After meeting them I realized that behind their journey lay something very powerful. So I began collecting more stories of migration and interviewing many people from many different countries. A few months later, in September 2014, when I started studying a Master of Arts in Illustration at the Academy of Lucerne, I knew I wanted to create a book about these true stories. Almost every day on the news we hear the terms "migrants" and "refugees" but we rarely ever speak to or hear the personal journeys that they have had to take. This book is a collage of all those personal stories and the incredible strength of the people within them.

A gentle, tender storybook about friendship and the power of kindness.

One of George Bernard Shaw's best-known plays, Pygmalion was a rousing success on the London and New York stages, an entertaining motion picture and a great hit with its musical version, My Fair Lady. An updated and considerably revised version of the ancient Greek legend of Pygmalion and Galatea, the 20th-century story pokes fun at the antiquated British class system. In Shaw's clever adaptation, Professor Henry Higgins, a linguistic expert, takes on a bet that he can transform an awkward cockney flower seller into a refined young lady simply by polishing her manners and changing the way she speaks. In the process of convincing society that his creation is a mysterious royal figure, the Professor also falls in love with his elegant handiwork. The irresistible theme of the emerging butterfly, together with Shaw's brilliant dialogue and splendid skills as a playwright, have made Pygmalion one of the most popular comedies in the English language. A staple of college drama courses, it is still widely performed.

"If you want to pretend you're shrinking, that's all right," said Treehorn's mother, "as long as you don't do it at the table." No one around seems to appreciate what Treehorn's going through, when he starts shrinking after playing a strange board game. His parents are busy, his friends laugh at him, and he even gets sent to the Principal's office for shrinking. Or was it shirking? Clearly, the adults in his life have no clue and can't help. In the end, Treehorn figures it out on his own, and all is well. . . . At least until he turns green. This oddly offbeat, surreal, and funny story is illustrated with Edward Gorey's signature pen and ink drawings.

Discover a brilliantly original fairy tale about the power of hope and friendship to triumph against all odds, from one of the world's best storytellers.

If you're feeling brave, step into the pages of this book to find out... A beautiful hardback edition, perfect for sharing and gift-giving. Brought to life with full-colour illustrations by the young winners of The Ickabog Illustration Competition.

**THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER** I'd Die for You is a collection of the last remaining unpublished short stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald, iconic author of The Great Gatsby and Tender Is the Night. All eighteen short fictions collected here were lost in one sense or another: physically lost, coming to light only recently; lost in the turbulence of Fitzgerald's later life; lost to readers because his editors sometimes did not understand what he was trying to write. These fascinating stories offer a new insight into the arc of Fitzgerald's career, and demonstrate his stylistic agility and imaginative power as a writer at the forefront of Modern literature. Praise for I'd Die for You: 'Superbly edited and annotated, this richly fascinating miscellany is a marvellous reminder of what was lost when, at forty-four, a coronary killed Fitzgerald' Sunday Times 'Forward-thinking for their time . . . Fitzgerald was a master of short story writing' The Times 'This much-vaunted collection of stories . . . is a ragtag bundle of surprises, curios, irrelevancies and delights . . . We can marvel at the strength of his imagination, his display of elegance and precision' Sunday Telegraph 'Readers will find much to enjoy in this gorgeously produced book' New York Times 'A beguiling meditation on the dark side of wealth and the American dream' Independent

Based on real people and true events, The Paper Man is the story of twentieth-century Europe, the Holocaust, the cost of fame, and love against the odds.

*SHORTLISTED FOR THE ENCORE AWARD 2020* On a bitterly cold winter’s afternoon, Michael and Caitlin escape their unhappy marriages to keep an illicit rendez-vous. Once a month, for the past quarter of a century, Coney Island has been their haven. These precious, hidden hours are their only nourishment. But now, amid the howling of an angry snowstorm, the shut-down, out-of-season resort feels like the edge of the world. And their lives, suddenly, are on the brink – with news of serious illness on one side, and a move to the Midwest on the other. And so, after half a lifetime spent in secret, certain long-avoided facts need to be faced, consequences examined, decisions made, and – perhaps – chances finally taken. A quiet, intense drama of late-flowering intimacy, My Coney Island Baby condenses, within the course of a single day, the histories, landscapes, tragedies and moments of wonder that constitute the lives of two people who, although born worlds apart, have been drawn together. O’Callaghan, a masterful prose stylist, has created a devastatingly powerful novel about two unforgettable characters and the choices they have made. This is a book full of sorrow, but also radiant with beauty, longing and breathless desire.
