Antonine de Sent Exupery - The Little prince - Mali princ
The Little Prince is a classic tale of equal appeal to children and adults. On one level it is the story of an airman's discovery, in the desert, of a small boy from another planet - the Little Prince of the title - and his stories of intergalactic travel, while on the other hand it is a thought-provoking allegory of the human condition.First published in 1943, the year before the author's death in action, this translation contains Saint-Exupery's delightful illustrations.
Mali princ je klasik koji svojim sadrzajem privlaci i decu i odrasle. Za decu, to je jednostavno lepa bajka, za odrasle, mnogo vise od toga. U njemu se pronalaze mnoge zivotne istine.
*..Kažete li im: „Dokaz da je mali princ postojao jeste to što je bio divan, što se smejao, što je želeo ovcu. Kad čovek želi ovcu, to je dokaz da postoji“, oni će slegnuti ramenima i smatraće vas detetom! Međutim, ukoliko im saopštite: „Planeta s koje je došao mali princ jeste asteroid B612“, biće zadovoljni i neće vam više dosađivati pitanjima. Takvi su oni. Ne valja se zato na njih ljutiti. Deca moraju mnogo toga da praštaju odraslima.*
U svom kratkom letu od asteroida B612 do čudne i njemu strane planete Zemlje mali princ otkriva nekoliko drugih planeta i njihovih stanovnika. Svi su oni uobraženi i samoživi i bez ikakve ljubavi ili razumevanja obavljaju poslove koji malom princu izgledaju kao da su potpuno besmisleni i beskorisni. Iz duhovne pustinje takvih svetova mali princ se spušta na Zemlju, gde naizgled slučajno pada u stvarnu pustinju – Saharu. Na toj Zemlji bez ljudi on malo-pomalo spoznaje da su rad, prijateljstvo i ljubav vrednosti bez kojih čovek ne može da živi.
Steven J. Watson - Before I Go to Sleep - Pre nego sto zaspim
Christine wakes up every morning in an unfamiliar bed with an unfamiliar man. She looks in the mirror and sees an unfamiliar, middle-aged face. And every morning, the man she has woken up with must explain that he is Ben, he is her husband, she is forty-seven years old, and a terrible accident two decades earlier decimated her ability to form new memories.
Every day, Christine must begin again the reconstruction of her past. And the closer she gets to the truth, the more unbelievable it seems. In the closet, he finds a diary in which on the first page it says don't trust Ben
Kristina se svakog jutra budi u nepoznatom krevetu sa nepoznatim muskarcem. Gleda se u ogledalu i vidi nepoznato, srednjovecno lice. Muskarac pored koga se probudi joj svakog jutra objasnjava da je on Ben, njen muz, da ima cetrdeset sedam godina i da zbog nesrece koju je dozivela pre dvadeset godina ne moze da formira mova secanja.
Svakoga dana, Kristina mora da uz Benovu pomoc ponovo rekonstruiise sopstvenu proslost. Ipak, sve se menja kada jednog dana u ormanu pronadje dnevnik na cijoj prvoj strani pise ne veruj Benu.
Paulo Coelho - The Alchemist - Alhemicar
The Alchemist is a psychological novel, or so I would like you to think. Paulo Coelho tells the story of a Spanish shepherd who creates his personal legend through his Andalusian travels to Egypt. The story describes a "philosophy" that people discover only when they understand how to listen. But do not listen to us, listen to the alchemist: "Alchemy is a projection in the material world of all spiritual concepts. Not only laboratory work, but also that inner, personal chemistry, whose laboratory becomes life itself. If we are faithful to what I call a ‘personal legend’, the whole world is changing and the things we touch will also turn into philosophical gold. "
Kad nešto želimo, čitav kosmos stupa u zaveru kako bi nam pomogao da to ostvarimo.
Roman *Alhemičar* stekao je posvećenu publiku širom sveta. Priča koja pleni svojom jednostavnošću i inspiriše svojom mudrošću prati mladog andaluzijskog pastira Santjaga, koji iz rodne Španije odlazi u egipatsku pustinju kako bi našao skriveno blago zakopano ispod piramida.
Niko ne zna kakvo je blago u pitanju ni da li će Santjago uspeti da prevaziđe prepreke koje mu staju na put, ali ono što počinje kao potraga za svetovnim bogatstvima pretvara se u potragu za bogatstvom koje se nalazi u nama samima.
Zanosna, živopisna i duboko ljudska, ova priča predstavlja večni dokaz moći naših snova da nas preobraze i svedoči o tome koliko je važno slušati sopstveno srce.
„Briljantno napisana knjiga. Ona dotiče svakoga od nas i uči da sve blago sveta leži u našim srcima.“ *The Guardian*
„Paulo Koeljo zna tajnu književne alhemije.“ Kenzaburo Oe, dobitnik Nobelove nagrade za književnost
Robert Ludlum - The Gemini contenders - Osveta blizanaca
Most of you know at least about the films Born's Identity or Born's Revenge, which are based on books by this author. On this occasion, I present to you another of his excellent books, which is unfairly overshadowed by the franchise about Born
At the dawn of World War II, in the middle of the night in a Greek city, a line of monks embarks on a desperate mission: their task is to carry a vault that keeps the holiest of all secrets to a hiding place in the Italian Alps.
Its contents, hidden from everyone for centuries, would cause a deadly rift in the Christian world. As the German army approaches, a relentless hunt begins, and in the whirlwind of war, every trace of the treasure guards is lost.
Three decades later, the only man who knows anything about the precious relic is Vittorio Fontini-Cristi, an Italian living in America named Victor Fontin. Sensing that death is approaching, Victor leaves a secret that he kept all his life in a legacy to his sons, twins Adrian and Andrew. Brothers cannot be a greater opposition to each other, and the future of the world depends on which of them will be the first to reach the treasury…
Vecina vas je bar cula za filmove Bornov identitet ili Bornova osvta koji su radjeni po knjigama ovog autora. Ovom prilikom predstavqam vam jos jednu njegovu odlicnu knjigu koju nepravedno zasenjuje fransiza o Bornu.
U osvit Drugog svetskog rata, usred noći u jednom grčkom gradu, red monaha kreće u očajničku misiju: njihov zadatak je da prenesu trezor koji čuva najsvetiju od svih tajni do skrovišta u italijanskim Alpima.
Njegov sadržaj, vekovima skrivan od svih, izazvao bi smrtonosan razdor u hrišćanskom svetu. Dok se nemačka vojska približava, započinje nemilosrdan lov, a u ratnom vihoru gubi se svaki trag o čuvarima trezora.
Tri decenije kasnije, jedini čovek koji zna nešto o dragocenoj relikviji je Vitorio Fontini-Kristi, Italijan koji živi u Americi pod imenom Viktor Fontin. Predosećajući da mu se smrt približava, Viktor ostavlja tajnu koju je celog života čuvao u zaveštanje svojim sinovima, blizancima Adrijanu i Endruu. Braća ne mogu biti veća suprotnost jedan drugom, a budućnost sveta zavisi od toga koji će od njih prvi stići do trezora…
My Family Right or Wrong - Kod kuce je najgore - Book for all generation
One of the best-selling and most translated books by the Israeli writer Ephraim Kishon, in which he finds inspiration for his stories in the everyday details of family life. As a great humorist, he proves once again how a seemingly ordinary everyday life hides an abundance of funny situations that we laugh at from the heart because we recognize ourselves in them ...
Jedna od najprodavanijih i najprevođenijih knjiga izraelskog pisca Efraima Kišona u kojoj inspiraciju za svoje priče nalazi u svakodnevnim sitnicama porodičnog života. Kao vrstan humorista, još jednom dokazuje kako naizgled obična svakodnevnica krije u sebi obilje smešnih situacija kojima se od srca smejemo jer u njima prepoznajemo i nas same...
Knjiga je sastavljena od kratkih prica, koje svojim obimom ne zahtevaju puno vremena i odlicna je za one čitoace koji nemaju puno vremena da posvete čitanju tokom dana jer ne gubi na smislu i ako se čita na mahove. Moze se naci i u pdf formatu kao besplatni primerak tako da ne postoji razlog da se koliko jos danas ne upoznate sa ovim maestralnim delom.

Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief - The childs SF adventure book
Percy Jackson will be kicked out of school for who knows how many times. However, that is not his biggest problem. The monsters from Greek myths and the gods of Olympus seem to have decided to move from the pages of Percy's textbooks into his life and make him bitter. To make matters worse, he angered some of them a lot. Zeus' supreme lightning was stolen, and Percy is the main suspect. Now he and his friends have only ten days to find and return Zeus' weapon to Olympus, and so the gods die. However, in order to succeed in the search, Percy will not only have to catch the real thief: he will have to meet and reconcile with his father who left him, solve the riddle of the Prophecy, which warns him that a friend will betray him, and uncover a conspiracy that threatens the mighty gods. "A fun and exciting story about heroism, which makes us think about the reality of our world, an adventure that, along with mythological creatures and heartfelt heroes, puts family, friendship and loyalty at the center of events. “
Persi Džekson će po ko zna koji put biti izbačen iz škole. Međutim, to nije njegov najveći problem. Čudovišta iz grčkih mitova i bogovi Olimpa kao da su rešili da se sa stranica Persijevih udžbenika presele u njegov život i da ga zagorčaju. Da sve bude još gore, on je neke od njih mnogo naljutio. Ukradena je Zevsova vrhovna munja, a Persi je glavni osumnjičeni.
Sada on i njegovi prijatelji imaju samo deset dana da pronađu i vrate Zevsovo oružje na Olimp i tako umire bogove. Međutim, da bi uspeo u potrazi, Persi neće morati samo da uhvati pravog lopova: moraće da se upozna i pomiri sa ocem koji ga je napustio, da reši zagonetku Proročišta, koje ga upozorava da će ga jedan prijatelj izdati, i da razotkrije zaveru koja preti moćnim bogovima.
„Zabavna i uzbudljiva priča o herojstvu, koja nas tera da razmislimo o realnosti našeg sveta, avantura koja uz mitološka bića i srčane junake u centar zbivanja stavlja porodicu, prijateljstvo i odanost. “
Great fall - Veliki pad - Peter handke the story of our everyday lives
The big drop encompasses one day - from morning to late evening - in the life of an elderly actor who moves from the suburbs of the metropolis to the center to be presented with a prestigious award by the president of the state. On that road, he meets homeless people and immigrants, then he comes to an abandoned railway, where the police stop him briefly due to the suspicion that he is a terrorist. Nothing is better even when he steps into the very heart of a city where people are alienated and under the pernicious influence of modern technology.
The hero's walk is partly a pilgrimage, partly a crusade filled with deep reflections on the world in which we live.
*Veliki pad* obuhvata jedan dan – od jutra do kasnih večernjih sati – u životu ostarelog glumca koji iz predgrađa metropole kreće u centar da mu predsednik države uruči prestižnu nagradu. Na tom putu sreće se sa beskućnicima i imigrantima, potom dolazi do napuštene pruge, gde ga policajci nakratko zaustavljaju zbog sumnje da je terorista. Ništa nije bolje ni kada kroči u samo srce grada u kojem su ljudi otuđeni i pod pogubnim uticajem savremene tehnologije.
Junakova šetnja je delom hodočašće delom krstaški pohod ispunjen dubokim promišljanjem o svetu u kojem živimo.
