Beata Tyszkiewicz. Portret damy
Jaka ona jest? Pamiętam, jak pytałam o to przypadkowe osoby. Zawsze pojawiał się zachwyt – że piękna, że z klasą i że ma cudowne poczucie humoru. Zdumiewało mnie, jak żywe reakcje i jaką czułość wywołuje w innych kobietach. Ale prawdziwie zaskakujące okazały się rozmowy z jej znajomymi. Powszechnie znany portret wielkiej damy nabrał dodatkowego kolorytu. Postać z niego okazała się nadspodziewanie barwna. Nieszablonowa. A do tego jej fascynujące życie samo mogłoby być kanwą dla filmowego scenariusza. Ta książka to nie jest typowy, biograficzny zapis faktów z życia słynnej aktorki. To opowieść rozpisana na głosy. Nieznane dotąd fakty przytaczają między innymi Daniel Olbrychski, Juliusz Machulski, Hanna Bakuła czy Iwona Pavlovič. Przypominają zdarzenia, obrazy i słowa, które rzucają nowe światło na tę niezwykłą osobę. Kobietę, która dostała od losu urodę i talent. Ale – proszę mi wierzyć – nie tylko to.

Ten Poems to Change Your Life
Great poetry calls into question everything. It dares us to break free from the safe strategies of the cautious mind. It opens us to pain and joy and delight. It amazes, startles, pierces, and transforms us. It can lead to communion and grace. Through the voices of ten inspiring poets and his own reflections, the author of Sacred America shows how poetry illuminates the eternal feelings and desires that stir the human heart and soul. These poems explore such universal themes as the awakening of wonder, the longing for love, the wisdom of dreams, and the courage required to live an authentic life. In thoughtful commentary on each work, Housden offers glimpses into his personal spiritual journ...
Unorthodox
The instant New York Times bestselling memoir of a young Jewish woman's escape from a religious sect, in the tradition of Ayaan Hirsi Ali's Infidel and Carolyn Jessop's Escape, featuring a new epilogue by the author. As a member of the strictly religious Satmar sect of Hasidic Judaism, Deborah Feldman grew up under a code of relentlessly enforced customs governing everything from what she could wear and to whom she could speak to what she was allowed to read. It was stolen moments spent with the empowered literary characters of Jane Austen and Louisa May Alcott that helped her to imagine an alternative way of life. Trapped as a teenager in a sexually and emotionally dysfunctional marriage to a man she barely knew, the tension between Deborah's desires and her responsibilities as a good Satmar girl grew more explosive until she gave birth at nineteen and realized that, for the sake of herself and her son, she had to escape.
