Vienna, 1914. Lucius is a twenty-two-year-old medical student when World War I explodes across Europe. Enraptured by romantic tales of battlefield surgery, he enlists, only to find himself posted to a remote field-hospital ravaged by typhus. Supplies have all but run out, the other doctors have fled, and only a single nurse remains, from whom he must learn a brutal, makeshift medicine.
Then one day, an unconscious soldier is brought in from the snow, his uniform stuffed with strange drawings. He seems beyond rescue, until Lucius makes a fateful decision that will change the course of his life.
From the gilded ballrooms of Imperial Vienna to the frozen forests of the Eastern Front, The Winter Soldier is the story of finding love in the sweeping tides of history, and of the mistakes we make and the precious opportunities to atone.

It's early 1945 and a group of people trek across Germany, bound together by their desperation to reach the ship that can take them away from the war-ravaged land. Four young people, each haunted by their own dark secret, narrate their unforgettable stories. Fans of The Book Thief or Helen Dunmore's The Siege will be totally absorbed. This inspirational novel is based on a true story from the Second World War. When the German ship the Wilhelm Gustloff was sunk in port in early 1945 it had over 9000 civilian refugees, including children, on board. Nearly all were drowned. Ruta Sepetys, acclaimed author of Between Shades of Grey, brilliantly imagines their story.

“Othello” is one of the best-known and most popular plays by William Shakespeare (1564—1616) which belongs to four great tragedies being considered the top of the playwright’s works. The conflict between sincerity and hypocrisy, devotion and careerism, trustfulness and treachery, nobility and meanness incarnate in the images of Shakespeare’s characters exceed the bounds of a purely domestic story about love, jealousy, and revenge, rising to the highest tragic motif of a noble personality’s clash with the world which is insensible and even hostile to the highest human values.
“Отелло” — одна з найвідоміших і найпопулярніших п’єс Вільяма Шекспіра (1564—1616), що належить до чотирьох великих трагедій, які стали вершиною творчості драматурга. Конфлікт між щирістю і лицемірством, відданістю і кар’єризмом, довірливістю і підступністю, шляхетністю і жадібністю, втіленими в образах шекспірівських персонажів, виходить за межі суто побутової історії про кохання, ревнощі та помсту, піднімаючись до вищого трагічного мотиву зіткнення шляхетної особистості зі світом, байдужим і навіть ворожим до вищих людських цінностей.

Joseph Conrad (1857—1924) is one of the most famous English prose-writers who was born not far from the Ukrainian town Berdychiv and walked his way up from an ordinary sailor to captain ship. That is why it was no mere chance that the main heroes of his tales “The Shadow-Line” and “Typhoon” were exactly captains. The author purposefully places them into the extreme conditions trying to investigate the depths of human psychology in the light of universal values. The main questions which the writer is interested in are as follows: will an ordinary man remain the same one under the unfavorable circumstances, is he able to tower over his own needs and instincts?

The Go-Giver took the business world by storm with its message that giving is the simplest, most fulfilling, and most effective path to success. It has inspired hundreds of thousands of readers; but some have wondered how the story's lessons stand up to the tough challenges of everyday, real-world business. Bob Burg and John David Mann answer that question in Go-Givers Sell More, a practical guide that turns giving into the cornerstone of a powerful and effective approach to selling. Most of us think of sales as a struggle to make people do something they don't really want to do. But that cut-throat mentality makes the process much harder than it has to be - especially in an economic downturn when customers are more suspicious and defensive than ever. It's far more effective (and satisfying) when salespeople think like Go-Givers and focus on creating value for the customer. Cultivate a trusting relationship and provide outstanding service, and great results will follow automatically. Illustrating their points with a wide range of real-life examples, Burg and Mann offer tips and strategies that anyone in sales can start applying right away.

66 million years ago the dinosaurs were wiped from the face of the earth. Today a new generation of dinosaur hunters, armed with cutting edge technology, is piecing together the complete story of how the dinosaurs created a hugely successful empire that lasted for around 150 million years. In this hugely ambitious and engrossing story of how dinosaurs rose to dominate the planet, using the fossil clues that have been gathered using state of the art technology, Steve Brusatte, one of the world’s leading paleontologists, follows these magnificent creatures from the Early Triassic period at the start of their evolution, through the Jurassic period to their final days in the Cretaceous' and the legacy that they left behind. Along the way, Brusatte introduces us to the cast of new dinosaur hunters and gives an insight into what it’s like to be a paleontologist whose job it is to hunt for dinosaurs. He offers thrilling accounts of some of the remarkable discoveries he has made, including primitive human-sized tyrannosaurs, monstrous carnivores even larger than T. rex, and feathered raptor dinosaurs preserved in lava from China. At a time when Homo sapiens has existed for less than 200,000 years and we are already talking about planetary extinction, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs is a timely reminder of what humans can learn from the magnificent creatures who ruled the earth before us.
