      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.

      Atelier 5 has been operating for more than 40 years and is one of Switzerland's most important architectural offices. Their housing estates and urban projects have gained recognition for the team throughout the world and they count amongst the most significant examples of post-war residential structures. A characteristic of their architecture is that it does not succumb to passing trends but continually seeks to create new prototypes. In their designs, they explore the relationship between form and function, ensuring that social needs and the needs of the occupants are given primary consideration. This Studio Paperback naturally looks at their celebrated housing estates such as Halen and Hamburg Rotherbaum, but it also reviews their entire portfolio - from single family housing to public buildings.
