Přestože je Jaromír Nohavica naší nejvýraznější písničkářskou osobností, která v mnohém přesahuje rámec folkové hudby, dosud o něm nevyšla žádná monografie. Rozsáhlá publikace z pera hudebního publicisty Josefa Rauvolfa je tedy svým způsobem unikátní. Autor se na základě mnoha pramenů, ale také přímých svědectví pokouší rozklíčovat fenomén Nohavica. Dává jeho tvorbu do kontextu s písničkářovým životaběhem i s dobovými událostmi. Rauvolfův knižní portrét je pestrý a detailní, zároveň ale komplexní, přesvědčivý a veskrze objektivní. A to i díky tomu, že svými svědectvími přispěly takové osobnosti folkové scény, jako např. Pavel Žalman Lohonka, Wabi Daněk či Pavlína Jíšová.

For more than forty years Miles Davis has been in the front rank of American music. Universally acclaimed as a musical genius, Miles is one of the most important and influential musicians in the world. The subject of several biographies, now Miles speaks out himself about his extraordinary life.Miles: The Autobiography, like Miles himself, holds nothing back. For the first time Miles talks about his five-year silence. He speaks frankly and openly about his drug problem and how he overcame it. He condemns the racism he has encountered in the music business and in American society generally. And he discusses the women in his life. But above all, Miles talks about music and musicians, including the legends he has played with over the years: Bird, Dizzy, Monk, Trane, Mingus, and many others.The man who has given us some of the most exciting music of the past few decades has now given us a compelling and fascinating autobiography, featuring a concise discography and thirty-two pages of photographs.

Best-known for his seminal sf novel NEUROMANCER, William Gibson is also a master of short fiction. Tautly-written and suspenseful, BURNING CHROME collects 10 of his best short stories with a preface from Bruce Sterling, co-Cyberpunk and editor of the seminal anthology MIRRORSHADES. These brilliant, high-resolution stories show Gibson's characters and intensely-realized worlds at his absolute best. Contains 'Johnny Mnemonic' (filmed starring Keanu Reeves) and title story 'Burning Chrome' - both nominated for the Nebula Award - as well as the Hugo-and-Nebula-nominated stories 'Dogfight' and 'The Winter Market'.

The decadence and violence of the urban streets is graphically portrayed in this novel set in a post-WWII Brooklyn slum.

Here is Jim Morrison in all his complexity-singer, philosopher, poet, delinquent-the brilliant, charismatic, and obsessed seeker who rejected authority in any form, the explorer who probed "the bounds of reality to see what would happen..." Seven years in the writing, this definitive biography is the work of two men whose empathy and experience with Jim Morrison uniquely prepared them to recount this modern tragedy: Jerry Hopkins, whose famous Presley biography, Elvis, was inspired by Morrison's suggestion, and Danny Sugerman, confidant of and aide to the Doors. With an afterword by Michael McClure.

Huge bikes, filthy denim and an aura of barely contained violence; the Hell's Angels could paralyze whole towns with fear, so terrible was their reputation. But how much of that reputation was myth and how much was brutal reality? This book seeks the truth behind these latter-day barbarians.
