      Aan de rand van het woud wonen drie apen. Het verhaal van hun reis naar de Valleien van Tishnar, op zoek naar hun verdwneen vader, vormt één der hoogtepunten uit de Engelse fantasieliteratuur.

    • O tom, co boží oko vidí, nevíme nic... Černá díra ve vesmíru. A jí proniká paprsek rubínového světla jasnějšího než sto měsíců. Bylo to oko boží tváře nebo krvavě rudé slunce našich prvních mezigalaktických návštěvníků?

    • Wampeters, Foma & Granfalloons (Opinions) is a rare opportunity to experience Kurt Vonnegut speaking in his own voice about his own life, his views of the world, his writing & the writing of others. An indignant, outrageous, always witty, & deeply felt collection of reviews, essays & speeches, this work is a window not only into Vonnegut's mind but also into his heart. "A great cosmic comedian & a rattler of human skeletons, an idealist disguised as a pessimist, has written a book filled with madness & truth & absurdity & self-revelation."--St Louis Post-Dispatch "He is our strongest writer, the most stubbornly imaginative."--John Irving The New York Times
