Ця книга про любов. У ній немає жодного слова на "лю...", але вона про любов. Про магію, не лубочну, розтиражовану з екранів телевізора, а справжню, від роду і кореня, коли пірнаєш з головою у Прадавній Океан і виринаєш звідти з рибиною в зубах. І ще про відвагу. Про безумовну відвагу знайти своє, впізнати його, впертися руками і ногами і нікому не віддати. Свій дім, свою батьківщину, своє серце, своє право ходити з високо піднятою головою. Події роману розгортаються навесні-влітку чотирнадцятого року у Донецьку. Донбас — це точка обнуління, місце сили, де прозвучали найважливіші запитання. І тільки там заховані потрібні відповіді. Та де все починалося, там все і завершиться, коли історія пройде чергове коло, і вічний змій Уроборос знову вкусить себе за хвіст. Саме тут героїня втратила родину, дім, роботу, ілюзії — і саме тут зібрала уламки життя заново, віднайшла новий смисл і нову опору. Крок за кроком читач спостерігає процес трансформації, переродження гречкосія у воїна. Ця книга назавжди змінила того, хто її написав, і змінить кожного, хто її прочитає. Бо війна — це коли ти їси землю. І що важливіше, коли годуєш землею.

With her sparkling voice and superb acting ability, Blair Brown gives an impressive reading of this John Grisham blockbuster. The story hinges on a young boy who gets an unwanted earful of murder, politics--and dangerous secrets about both--from a conscience-stricken mob lawyer bent on suicide. "I can tell you where the body is... the most notorious undiscovered corpse of our time." Just the kind of information most children don't need, especially when the snakeskin-wearing hit man finds out what he knows. Aside from musical cues scattered as superfluously as laugh tracks on a sitcom, the production quality is stellar, preserving the crispness of Blair's voice and the nuances of her excellent interpretation. (Running time: 6 hours, 4 cassettes) --George Laney

“A Tangled Web” is one of the few books for adults written by a Canadian writer Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1924) famous for her children’s bestseller “Anne of Green Gables”. The proposed novel is equally interesting and catching. It is full of intrigue, at the same time it depicts the life as it is when tragic and comic things ever go side by side. It is a story of a big clan where over three generations sixty Penhallow family members married sixty Darks having made a tangled web of relations and emotions.
“Заплутане павутиння” — одна з небагатьох книг для дорослих, написаних канадською письменницею Люсі Мод Монгомері (1874—1924), відомою своїм дитячим бестселером “Енн із Зелених дахів”. Пропонований роман не менш цікавий і захопливий, він сповнений надзвичайної інтриги та водночас розповідає про життя як воно є, коли трагічне й комічне завжди опиняються поряд. Це історія великого клану, де за три покоління шістдесят членів родини Пенхеллоу одружилися із шістдесятьма Дарками, сплівши таким чином заплутане павутиння відносин та емоцій.

When and how did the universe begin? Why are we here? Is the apparent 'grand design' of our universe evidence for a benevolent creator who set things in motion? Or does science offer another explanation? In "The Grand Design", the most recent scientific thinking about the mysteries of the universe is presented in language marked by both brilliance and simplicity. Model dependent realism, the multi verse, the top-down theory of cosmology, and the unified M-theory - all are revealed here. This is the first major work in nearly a decade by one of the world's greatest thinkers. A succinct, startling and lavishly illustrated guide to discoveries that are altering our understanding and threatening some of our most cherished belief systems, "The Grand Design" is a book that will inform - and provoke - like no other.

“Tender is the Night” is one of the best novels by Francis Scott Fitzgerald (1896—1940), a classic of American literature. The book is to a great extent autobiographical. The author was working on it when his wife was receiving treatment for schizophrenia in a clinic.
Thus, it is not by chance that the protagonists are a well-off delicate patient of a mental hospital and a poor but gifted psychiatrist that was unable to resist her beauty. Writing this novel the author revealed his deepest and toughest thoughts on paper and appeared in front of the readers in all his sincerity, having bared his soul to them.

Bill Bryson describes himself as a reluctant traveller: but even when he stays safely in his own study at home, he can't contain his curiosity about the world around him. A Short History of Nearly Everything is his quest to find out everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization - how we got from there, being nothing at all, to here, being us. Bill Bryson's challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry and particle physics, and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. It's not so much about what we know, as about how we know what we know. How do we know what is in the centre of the Earth, or what a black hole is, or where the continents were 600 million years ago? How did anyone ever figure these things out? On his travels through time and space, he encounters a splendid collection of astonishingly eccentric, competitive, obsessive and foolish scientists, like the painfully shy Henry Cavendish who worked out many conundrums like how much the Earth weighed, but never bothered to tell anybody about many of his findings. In the company of such extraordinary people, Bill Bryson takes us with him on the ultimate eye-opening journey, and reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.
