      Daniel Corban žijící v horské chatě ohlásí zmizení manželky. Místní komisař o jeho verzi pochybuje, nicméně mu v hlavě stále bliká malý alarmující majáček a dělá maximum, aby mladého muže uklidnil. Poté, co se objeví žena tvrdící, že je Danielova manželka, začíná absurdní souboj, ve kterém Daniel vystupuje čím dál víc jako psychicky zdeptaný člověk. Celý kolotoč událostí vrcholí překvapivým rozuzlením celé zápletky. Velice napínavý příběh s detektivní zápletkou protkanou komickými situacemi.

      Past na osamělého muže
    • A fresh and modern take on one of the most classic poetic forms in the Western literary tradition. “What if creatures in other galaxies / have a vague sense that something is missing, / but don’t know it’s Little Richard, Shakespeare, / and cornbread with plum jam?” In this collection, Robert Thomas presents eighty nontraditional sonnets that explore love and jealousy—the traditional obsessions of sonnets—from nontraditional angles. Other galaxies are jealous of Earth in these heartbreaking, funny, ecstatic, profound, and never boring poems.

      Exploring themes of romance and introspection, this collection features poems that juxtapose everyday experiences with profound insights. From the humorous comparison of love to changing oil in a car to the poignant imagery of a salesman witnessing nature's transformation, the work navigates the intersections of mystery and affection. The desire to exchange one's soul for the artistry of legendary musicians like Federico García Lorca and Jimi Hendrix adds a layer of longing and artistic aspiration throughout the verses.
