"A fantastic novel that any fan of The Witcher will instantly appreciate." —The Gamer Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher series has become a fantasy phenomenon, finding millions of fans worldwide and inspiring the hit Netflix show and video games. Now the bestselling author introduces readers to a new hero on an epic journey in The Tower of Fools, the first book of the Hussite Trilogy. Reinmar of Bielawa, sometimes known as Reynevan, is a healer, a magician, and according to some, a charlatan. When a thoughtless indiscretion forces him to flee his home, he finds himself pursued not only by brothers bent on vengeance but by the Holy Inquisition. In a time when tensions between Hussite and Catholic countries are threatening to turn into war and mystical forces are gathering in the shadows, Reynevan's journey will lead him to the Narrenturm—the Tower of Fools. The Tower is an asylum for the mad...or for those who dare to think differently and challenge the prevailing order. And escaping it, avoiding the conflict around him, and keeping his own sanity will prove more difficult than he ever imagined "A ripping yarn delivered with world-weary wit, bursting at the seams with sex, death, magic and madness." —Joe Abercrombie "This is historical fantasy done right." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A highly enjoyable historical fantasy." —Booklist The Tower of Fools is an historical novel set during the Hussite Wars in Bohemia during the 1400s, a period of religious conflict and persecution. Characters in the novel may express views that some readers might find offensive.

'A book so astonishing that I immediately reread it, fearful it might disappear' Patti Smith The war is over but Alexander Jessiersky, a wealthy Austrian aristocrat and industrialist, is haunted by guilt over the neighbour he inadvertently sent to a concentration camp, Count Luna. What's more, he is convinced that Luna survived - and is out to get his revenge. So begins a wild, weird cat-and-mouse chase that takes him and his shadowy nemesis through windswept valleys, eerie houses and, eventually, Rome's catacombs, as an increasingly paranoid Jessiersky asks himself: will Luna stop at nothing to exact his bloody vengeance? Crazed, raging and darkly comic, Count Luna is a reckoning with postwar guilt, and an irresistible tale of the uncanny. 'Like Kafka ... Lernet-Holenia weaves his most intimate hopes and dreams ... with exquisitely imagined detail' Chicago Tribune

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Witcher: Reynevan—scoundrel, magician, possibly a fool—travels into the depths of war as he attempts to navigate the religious fervors of the fifteenth century. When the Hussite leaders entrust Reynevan with a dangerous secret mission, he is forced to come out of hiding in Bohmeia and depart for Silesia. At the same time, he strives to avenge the death of his brother and discover the whereabouts of his beloved. Once again pursued by multiple enemies, he must contend with danger on every front. Full of gripping action replete with twists and mysteries, seasoned with magic and Sapkowski's ever-present wit, fans of the Witcher will appreciate this rich historical epic set during the Hussite Wars.

Three beautifully illustrated classic Polish tales that will enchant the young readers of today In the late 1930s renowned Polish poet Julian Tuwim, was asked to write three poems for children. The publisher Przeworski connected the three poems into one book, Locomotive, and commissioned illustrations from celebrated Polish illustration duo Lewitt and Him. Locomotive was the beginning of a creative partnership that lasted many years. Featuring the original three poems, Locomotive, The Turnip, and The Bird’s Broadcast, children learn what’s inside each train carriage as it chugs along, how many people, animals, and friends it takes to pull a turnip from the ground, and what happens when birds of all kinds gather for a meeting in the woods. After its original publication in 1939 in Polish, Locomotive was swiftly translated into French and English the next year, appearing at a time when it would have been a surprise and a joy to encounter bright colors and modernist- inflected imagery. Both classic and modern, its imaginative storytelling and appeal has endured and will delight children today as much as it did eighty years ago.

A provocative new theory about fairy tales from one of the world's leading authorities If there is one genre that has captured the imagination of people in all walks of life throughout the world, it is the fairy tale. Yet we still have great difficulty understanding how it originated, evolved, and spread—or why so many people cannot resist its appeal, no matter how it changes or what form it takes. In this book, renowned fairy-tale expert Jack Zipes presents a provocative new theory about why fairy tales were created and retold—and why they became such an indelible and infinitely adaptable part of cultures around the world. Drawing on cognitive science, evolutionary theory, anthropology, psychology, literary theory, and other fields, Zipes presents a nuanced argument about how fairy tales originated in ancient oral cultures, how they evolved through the rise of literary culture and print, and how, in our own time, they continue to change through their adaptation in an ever-growing variety of media. In making his case, Zipes considers a wide range of fascinating examples, including fairy tales told, collected, and written by women in the nineteenth century; Catherine Breillat's film adaptation of Perrault's "Bluebeard"; and contemporary fairy-tale drawings, paintings, sculptures, and photographs that critique canonical print versions. While we may never be able to fully explain fairy tales, The Irresistible Fairy Tale provides a powerful theory of how and why they evolved—and why we still use them to make meaning of our lives.

Przygodowa powieść dla młodzieży w konwencji science-fiction. Solidna, radosna, pełna normalnego humoru i ciepła, pozytywna powieść na dobre i gorsze dni. Bohaterami jest trójka nastolatków: Ion Soggo oraz bliźniacy Alka i Alek Roj, którzy spotykają się podczas wakacji na stacji badawczej „Pierwszy Zwiadowca” – sztucznej planetoidzie, gdzie pracują ich rodzice. Rojowie są Ziemianami, zaś Ion Saturnianinem. Opiekuje się nimi android Robik. Mechanoplaneta ma przetestować możliwość lotu wielkiego statku kosmicznego poza granice Układu Słonecznego. Pewnego dnia w kolejną misją badawczą startują dwa kosmoloty, których załogi stanowią wszyscy naukowcy pracujący na Zwiadowcy. Nastolatki zostają same pod opieką maszyn. Niespodziewanie na skutek kolizji z rzeką meteorów awarii ulega jeden z kosmolotów. Na ratunek rusza mu drugi kosmolot, niestety, także zostaje wciągnięty w strumień. Jedynej pomocy mogą zagrożonym dorosłym udzielić nasi młodzi bohaterowie. Skąd wziął się tytuł książki? Otóż jej akcja toczy się w odległości dziesięciu tysięcy milionów kilometrów od Słońca! Dlaczego na stacji badawczej znalazły się dzieci? Dlatego, że planowane w przyszłości dalekie loty kosmiczne będą trwać wiele lat – postanowiono więc, że będą w nich uczestniczyć całe rodziny – wraz z dziećmi (które po latach kosmicznych podróży dorosną i staną się pełnoprawnymi astronautami). Dalsze losy bohaterów „Ci z Dziesiątego Tysiąca” (1962) znajdziemy w wydanej dwa lata później (1964), kolejnej powieści Jerzego Broszkiewicza „Oko Centaura”, w której zmierzą się z jeszcze większym wyzwaniem – z próbą nawiązania kontaktu z obca cywilizacją. Retrofuturyzm w całej okazałości. Książka miała wiele wydań i ogromne nakłady. Przykładowo wydanie IV z 1969 roku miało nakład blisko 100 tysięcy egzemplarzy (dokładnie: 92235 egzemplarzy). Przetłumaczono ją m.in. na niemiecki, japoński, czeski, słowacki, rumuński i bułgarski. Łączny nakład uwzględniając tłumaczenia, to ponad milion egzemplarzy. Autorka okładki: Anna Niemierko

Translating for Children is not a book on translations of children's literature, but a book on translating for children. It concentrates on human action in translation and focuses on the translator, the translation process, and translating for children, in particular. Translators bring to the translation their cultural heritage, their reading experience, and in the case of children's books, their image of childhood and their own child image. In so doing, they enter into a dialogic relationship that ultimately involves readers, the author, the illustrator, the translator, and the publisher. What makes Translating for Children unique is the special attention it pays to issues like the illustrations of stories, the performance (like reading aloud) of the books in translation, and the problem of adaptation. It demonstrates how translation and its context takes precedence can take over efforts to discover and reproduce the original author's intentions. Rather than the authority of the author, the book concentrates on the intentions of the readers of a book in translation, both the translator and the target-language readers.
