Cudzojazyčná / Anglická

"Rapers" follows the rise and fall of Jemel "Jimmy" Karami, a brilliant and utterly amoral Lebanese businessman. The plot tells two converging stories - Jimmy's ascension to power, and the desperate plan he concocts to hold his place as the mideast crumbles beneath him. Though mideastern, Karami is not Moslem - he's Christian Lebanese, and he's spent much of his life away from home, he's less a fixture of "le oriente" than the avarice of global commerce. The story opens in the late 1960's - with Jimmy's position brought to the brink by a Beirut banking crisis in late 1966. The "Six-Day War" only exacerbates the situation for Karami, who lives by making constant deals bankrolled by deposits in his Beirut bank.... malý formát, brožovaná, v angličtine, 464 strán

The Jesus I never Knew

Spisovatel: Yancey Philip , Marshall Pickering 2000
Katalogové číslo: L2914

What happens when a respected Christian journalist decides to put his preconceptions aside and take a long look at the Jesus described in the Gospels? How does the Jesus of the New Testament compare to the "new, rediscovered" Jesus―or even the Jesus we think we know so well? Philip Yancey offers a new and different perspective on the life of Christ and his work―his teachings, his miracles, his death and resurrection―and ultimately, who he was and why he came...v angličtine, tvrdá väzba, 286 strán, na pár stranách na okrajoch poznámky ceruzou

Phoenix café

Spisovatel: Jones G., Vista 1997
Katalogové číslo: D2115

Third volume of the trilogy (White Queen, 1993; North Wind, 1996) about the exploitation of Earth by baboon-like, hermaphrodite, serially immortal aliens. Catherine is a human/alien hybrid. Though biologically human, her father is the influential Aleutian, Lord Maitri; mentally, Catherine herself the reincarnation of Clavel, the Aleutian Third Captain from the First Expedition. Now, after 300 years, the Aleutians are preparing to leave, and a human conspiracy, led by Misha Connelly and his friends at the Phoenix Cafe, are plotting against them. Catherine feels guilty for the rape she committed as Clavel, so she allows Misha to abuse and manipulate her. Then the Americans, who've permitted no contact with the Aleutians, prepare to receive a trade delegation. Maitri lies dying. Catherine discovers that Misha's plotters have been preparing ghastly biological weapons to use against the Aleutians, in retaliation for the aliens' refusal to share their advanced technology-though it turns out that they've developed the technology independently anyway. The biological weapons are for one human faction to use against another. Maitri dies, Catherine gets some explanations for her strange experiences, and the Aleutians depart. Wonderful aliens, unpleasant gender conflicts, heavy-handed metaphors, imperceptible plot: It all adds up to a churning, unsatisfying, rather unwieldy wrapup...v angličtine, brožovaná, výborný stav, 300 strán
