Nabízíme vám publikaci poněkud s jiným posláním, než bývá u receptů na pomazánky a na podobné rychle občerstvení. Jistě si uvědomujete, že v naší době se pro mnohé vytrácí pravidelnost stravování a společného posezení u rodinného stolu. Náš život se postupně změnil a musíme se, ať chceme nebo ne, přizpůsobit různým druhům zaměstnání, které pro členy rodiny má různý začátek pracovní doby a jiný konec. A tak jsme pomazánky mimo původního použití pro snídaně a večeře doma nebo pro stravování o víkendu na výletě povýšili na celodenní nezbytnou skutečnost. A protože je člověk hloubavý a vynalézavý, "oprášil" dobře známý pojem jménem svačina a pro takovou příležitost je nepostradatelná pomazánka. A abyste si mohli vybrat "tu pravou", nabízíme vám pestrou paletu těch nejrůznějších předpisů pomazánek - zeleninové, masové, rybí, zvěřinové, vaječné, sýrové, tvarohové, sladké a další a další.

Conservative and working-class, Jean Macquart is an experienced, middle-aged soldier in the French army, who has endured deep personal loss. When he first meets the wealthy and mercurial Maurice Levasseur, who never seems to have suffered, his hatred is immediate.

The Kill (La Curee) is the second volume in Zola's great cycle of twenty novels, Les Rougon-Macquart, and the first to establish Paris - the capital of modernity - as the centre of Zola's narrative world. Conceived as a representation of the uncontrollable 'appetites' unleashed by the Second Empire (1852-70) and the transformation of the city by Baron Haussmann, the novel combines into a single, powerful vision the twin themes of lust for money and lust for pleasure. The all-pervading promiscuity of the new Paris is reflected in the dissolute and frenetic lives of an unscrupulous property speculator, Saccard, his neurotic wife Renee, and her dandified lover, Saccard's son Maxime.

First published in serial form as Der Golem in the periodical Die weissen Blätter in 1913–14, The Golem is a haunting Gothic tale of stolen identity and persecution, set in a strange underworld peopled by fantastical characters. The red-headed prostitute Rosina; the junk-dealer Aaron Wassertrum; puppeteers; street musicians; and a deaf-mute silhouette artist. Lurking in its inhabitants’ subconscious is the Golem, a creature of rabbinical myth. Supposedly a manifestation of all the suffering of the ghetto, it comes to life every 33 years in a room without a door. When the jeweller Athanasius Pernath, suffering from broken dreams and amnesia, sees the Golem, he realises to his terror that the ghostly man of clay shares his own face. . . . The Golem, though rarely seen, is central to the novel as a representative of the ghetto's own spirit and consciousness, brought to life by the suffering and misery that its inhabitants have endured over the centuries. Perhaps the most memorable figure in the story is the city of Prague itself, recognisable through its landmarks such as the Street of the Alchemists and the Castle.

In The Dream, the sixteenth novel in the Rougon-Macquart series, Zola blends mysticism and fairy tale with naturalism as an orphan girl falls in love with a nobleman.
