Michael Jordan. Viata

Michael Jordan. Viata

Michael Jordan. Viata este un proiect al editurii Publica, sustinut de Erste Asset Management. Gratie relatiilor pe care le-a construit in timp cu antrenorii lui Jordan, a nenumaratelor cronici in care a consemnat activitatea sportivului atat din timpul perioadei in care a activat la juniori, cat si dupa ce a trecut la baschetul profesionist, a sutelor de interviuri cu prietenii, coechipierii si rudele lui Michael Jordan, Roland Lazenby a reusit sa scrie un adevarat studiu despre jucatorul, simbolul si omul Jordan. Cand se gandesc la Michael Jordan, celor mai multi pasionati ai baschetului le vin in minte trei calitati incredibile care il definesc pe sportiv si care au intrat in istoria acestui sport: saritura, aruncarea si jocul. In ciuda maretiei sale, personalitatea lui Jordan are insa si o parte intunecoasa: a fost un competitor nemilos si un impatimit al jocurilor de noroc. Michael Jordan: Viata este singura biografie care reuseste sa prezinte intr-un mod echilibrat toate fatetele personalitatii acestui baschetbalist. Revelatorie... O analiza fascinanta a omului singur si mandru din spatele simbolului stralucitor. Publishers Weekly Michael Jordan: Viata este asemenea unui film ce merita vizionat de mai multe ori. Lazenby pare sa fi adaugat suficient de multe cadre care nu au fost taiate la montaj incat sa dea suspans povestii binecunoscute a unui sportiv desavarsit. Booklist Inca de la primele pagini, biografia scrisa de Roland Lazenby se anunta a fi cea mai buna carte scrisa vreodata despre, poate, cel mai mare jucator de baschet din istorie... Lazenby este un cercetator innascut, care a depus o munca foarte serioasa de colectare a datelor si a citatelor, ajungand, in cele din urma, sa compuna o adevarata enciclopedie pe subiectul Jordan.

A Calamity of Souls : The gripping historical courtroom drama from the multimillion copy number one bestselling author

'A tour de force' – S.A. Cosby'An instant classic' – Alex MichaelidesSet in the tumultuous year of 1968 in southern Virginia, a murder case sets a duo of Black and white lawyers against a deeply unfair system as they work to defend their wrongfully-accused Black defendants. A Calamity of Souls is the gripping historical courtroom drama from international no. 1 bestselling author David Baldacci. **********Jack Lee is a white lawyer from Freeman County, Virginia, who has never done anything to push back against racism, until he decides to represent Jerome Washington, a Black man charged with killing a wealthy, elderly white couple. Doubting his decision, Lee fears that his legal skills may not be enough to prevail in a case where the odds are already stacked against both him and his client. And he quickly finds himself out of his depth when he realizes that what is at stake is far greater than the outcome of a murder trial. Desiree DuBose is a Black lawyer from Chicago who has devoted her life to furthering the causes of justice and equality for everyone. She comes to Freeman County and enters a fractious and unwieldy partnership with Lee in a legal battle against the best prosecutor in town. Yet DuBose is also aware that powerful outside forces are at work to blunt the victories achieved by the Civil Rights movement. Lee and DuBose could not be more dissimilar. On their own, neither one can stop the prosecution’s deliberate march towards a guilty verdict and the electric chair. But together, the pair fight for what once seemed impossible: a chance for a fair trial and true justice. **********KILLER TWISTS. HEROES TO BELIEVE IN.

Black Beauty

Black Beauty

Editie bilingva. Romana-englezaRomanul urmareste viata si aventurile lui Black Beauty, un cal din Anglia secolului al XIX-lea. Povestea se deschide cu descrierea vietii de manz a lui Black Beauty, la casa lui Farmer Gray, un stapan cumsecade, unde manzul alearga ziua intreaga pe pajiste, primind lectii de la mama sa, Ducesa, despre importanta de a fi bun si bland si de a nu musca sau a da cu piciorul. Cand implineste doi ani, Black Beauty asista la o vanatoare si e martor la moartea tragica a unuia dintre calareti, care cade de pe cal. Calul este si el ranit si i se curma suferinta, iar experienta il inspaimanta. Cand implineste patru ani, Farmer Gray il antreneaza sa duca in spate calareti si sa traga vagoane. Dupa ce este trimis la pasunea unui vecin spre a se obisnui cu sunetele drumului, Black Beauty este vandut lui Squire Gordon, la Birtwick Hall. De aici isi primeste si numele; in afara de o stea alba pe frunte si o copita alba, haina lui este de un negru stralucitor. La Birtwick, Beauty se imprieteneste cu ceilalti cai din grajd: Merrylegs, Ginger si Sir Oliver. Squire Gordon si antrenorul sau, John, sunt barbati amabili care trateaza bine caii, iar munca lui Black Beauty cu ei este lipsita de incidente - dar doar pana cand familia Gordon e nevoita sa se mute intr-un climat mai cald pentru sanatatea doamnei Gordon. Black Beauty este vandut de mai multe ori, iar ceilalti stapani si baieti de grajd il suprasolicita, ii neglijeaza si chiar ii fura din ovaz. In cele din urma, cand se prabuseste din cauza suprasolicitarii, este vandut la licitatie unui fermier amabil, care il ingrijeste si il ajuta sa se insanatoseasca inainte de a-l vinde familiei Blomefield, vecina cu familia Gordon. Aici, Black Beauty isi traieste restul zilelor intr-o familie amabila si iubitoare. Povestea lui Black Beauty este considerata una dintre primele autobiografii de animale. Initial menita a fi literatura informativa pentru adulti despre consecintele cruzimii exercitate asupra cailor si despre prevenirea acestor acte nedrepte, Black Beauty este acum considerata drept o carte pentru copii. Povestit de personajul principal, Black Beauty, romanul este citit de mii de copii din intreaga lume

The Vignes twin sisters will always be identical. But after growing up together in a small, southern black community and running away at age sixteen, it's not just the shape of their daily lives that is different as adults, it's everything: their families, their communities, their racial identities. Ten years later, one sister lives with her black daughter in the same southern town she once tried to escape. The other secretly passes for white, and her white husband knows nothing of her past. Still, even separated by so many miles and just as many lies, the fates of the twins remain intertwined. What will happen to the next generation, when their own daughters' story lines intersect?Weaving together multiple strands and generations of this family, from the Deep South to California, from the 1950s to the 1990s, Brit Bennett produces a story that is at once a riveting, emotional family story and a brilliant exploration of the American history of passing. Looking well beyond issues of race, The Vanishing Half considers the lasting influence of the past as it shapes a person's decisions, desires, and expectations, and explores some of the multiple reasons and realms in which people sometimes feel pulled to live as something other than their origins

This is one you absolutely will have to read' - The BiblioSanctum '[Iron Gold] offers us both a continuation of the story Brown has been telling for years right alongside an eye-opening widening of his universe, as though we're watching it all through an exquisitely calibrated telescope that can slide on perfect bearings from one side of the solar system to the other without the slightest blur . . . Mature science fiction existing within the frame of blazing space opera' - NPR Books 'The books are an exhilarating fusion of The Hunger Games, Blade Runner and Dune. Amid a pulse-pounding narrative, they fearlessly tackle major issues like the fragility of democracy and the fallibility of human nature to betray its ideals even when freedom is attained' - Express '[A] thoughtful blend of action, intrigue, and prosaic human drama' - Publishers Weekly 'Iron Gold offers more of everything we loved about the first three books. Pierce Brown builds upon the foundations of the incredible universe and story he spun in the first trilogy, pivoting on his characters' flaws and fallibility to steer the narrative in unexpected directions. Suffice it to say, readers will be soon be dying to read the next one' - Barnes & Noble 'This book lives up to every expectation I have for Pierce Brown . . . you MUST read this, it will not disappoint!' - The Speculative Herald'Brown succeeds not only in writing a great book, but adding to the world and Red Rising's mythos . . .

Bon AppetitDorothy Daniels has always had a voracious - and adventurous - appetite. From her idyllic farm-to-table childhood (homegrown tomatoes, thick slices of freshly baked bread) to the heights of her career as a food critic (white truffles washed down with Barolo straight from the bottle) Dorothy has never been shy about indulging her exquisite tastes - even when it lead to her plunging an ice pick into her lover's neck. There is something inside Dorothy that makes her different from everybody else. Something she's finally ready to confess. But beware: her story just might make you wonder how your lover would taste sautéed with shallots and mushrooms and deglazed with a little red wine. 'An unapologetic, rollicking satire of one woman's insatiable appetite.' Irish Times'Thrilling and awful.' The Times'One of the most uniquely fun and campily gory books in my recent memory.'
