Několika cenami ověnčený Laird Barron (*1970), považovaný za šedou eminenci amerického hororu, tentokrát přichází s drsným thrillerem. "Krev je můj chleba" je první díl nové série s hrdinou Izajášem Coleridgem, synem maorské krásky a amerického důstojníka, který je po dvaceti letech ve službách chicagské mafie vyvržen z jejích řad a na vlastní pěst se pustí do pátrání po mladé černošské dívce. Barron vytvořil v této sérii zcela nový literární svět, umístěný do žhavé současnosti. Figurují v něm mafiáni, gangy, rasismus, válka v Iráku i špinavé praktiky FBI. Děj, okořeněný sarkastickými komentáři nezapomenutelného hlavního hrdiny, který musí neustále šťourat do vosích hnízd, je plný akce... a krve. „Čas od času na nebi zazáří kometa, a to i na nebi literárním. Použít tento příměr na novou detektivku je značně troufalé. Ale kniha Krev je můj chleba amerického spisovatele Lairda Barrona si ho zaslouží. V šedivé záplavě současné krimiliteratury působí skutečně jako zjevení.“Tomáš Fojtík, Deník N (5. 11. 2019)

I v nemoci si buď přítelem neznamená, že by měl být každý sám sobě lékařem. Vyžaduje to však, aby každý z nás si byl dobrým přítelem a uměl si správně poradit ve chvíli, kdy je na křižovatce cest, z nichž jedna vede do nemoci a druhá ke zdraví.Onemocnění jako psychická zátěž staví člověka před nové problémy a nutí ho přizpůsobit se novým požadavkům a někdy velmi zvláštním a neočekávaným podmínkám. Autor této populárně naučné publikace se zabývá řadou otázek s tím souvisejících:Co se děje s člověkem, když onemocní? Jaké má pocity? Jak se vyrovnává se svým změněným stavem? Ke svému prospěchu

Jeho inspirativní životní cesta a lidé, které na ní potkal, je přiblížena v této biografii plné optimismu, energie, humoru a hudby. „Rudy Linka na čas vyměnil kytaru za klávesnici počítače a rozehrál ji se stejnou lehkostí a upřímností jako kytaru. Tahle kniha dobrá není... je skvělá.“ Jiří Suchý„Často jsem se zájmem a někdy přímo fascinovaně (v Praze, New Yorku nebo na Šumavě) poslouchal Rudyho vyprávění, se kterým mě už před více než dvaceti lety seznámil Jarda Dušek. A smál jsem se: tenhle kluk je tedy ale nešika a smolař! Jenomže pak mi postupně nějak došlo, že z jedné ruiny na Šumavě se stala nejkrásnější chalupa, co znám, a ze začátku nereálného snu se stal největší a nejlepší jazzový festival u nás – Bohemia Jazz Fest... A že ten ‚nešika‘ je jeden z nejschopnějších a nejkreativnějších lidí, které jsem v životě potkal.“ Jan HřebejkInterpret: Rudy LinkaRežie: Rudy LinkaHudba: Rudy LinkaDélka nahrávky: 7 h 31 min.1 mp3 CD

Anyone, as Freud tells us in Reflections on War and Death, forced to react against his own impulses may be described as a hypocrite, whether he is conscious of it or not. One might even venture to assert - it is still Freud's argument - that our contemporary civilisation favours this sort of hypocrisy and that there are more civilised hypocrites than truly cultured persons, and it is even a question whether a certain amount of hypocrisy is not indispensable to maintain civilisation.
