Roald Dahl - Matilda ​három csodája
Egy ​angol falucskában él szüleivel és Misi bátyjával a csöpp kis Matilda. Fekete haja van, barna szeme - és világraszóló nagy esze. Eleinte maga sem tudja, mi mindenre képes - ám amikor öt esztendős korára elolvasta már a falusi könyvtár valamennyi gyerekkönyvét, és jócskán belekóstolt a "felnőtt" irodalomba is, no meg a sokjegyű számok fejben szorzása sem okoz neki gondot: fantasztikus szellemi képességeinek és még annál is meghökkentőbb akaraterejének új feladatokra van szüksége. Sajnos - vagy talán szerencsére? - csodatevő erejét ugyancsak meg kell dolgoztatnia, ha felül akar kerekedni az egész iskolát, sőt, az egész falut rettegésben tartó igazgatónőn, Ordass kisasszonyon. Hogyan nyeri el a csodálatos Matilda jóvoltából jutalmát a szelíd Édess kisasszony és méltó büntetését a félelmetes Ordass - ezt meséli el Matilda három csodájának fordulatos, mulatságos történetében a meghökkentő mesék szerzője, és számos gyerekregény - Danny, a szupersrác; Szofi és a Habó; Karcsi és a csokoládégyár; Karcsi és a nagy üveglift - kimeríthetetlen képzeletű mesemondója, a norvég születésű angol Roald Dahl.

Julian Barnes - The ​Sense of an Ending
Tony ​Webster and his clique first met Adrian Finn at school. Sex-hungry and book-hungry, they would navigate the girl-less sixth form together, trading in affectations, in-jokes, rumour and wit. Maybe Adrian was a little more serious than the others, certainly more intelligent, but they all swore to stay friends for life. Now Tony is in middle age. He’s had a career and a single marriage, a calm divorce. He’s certainly never tried to hurt anybody. Memory, though, is imperfect. It can always throw up surprises, as a lawyer’s letter is about to prove. The Sense of an Ending is the story of one man coming to terms with the mutable past. Laced with trademark precision, dexterity and insight, it is the work of one of the world’s most distinguished writers.

Ray Bradbury - Bradbury ​Speaks
He ​is an American treasure, a clear-eyed fantasist without peer, and a literary icon who has created wonder for the better part of seven decades.

In ​Warsaw, a shy and high-minded polio victim lives a life of seclusion caring for her odd family until a chance encounter plunges her into the intrigues of dirty politics. Zaremba, a wealthy businessman, is about to be arrested on trumped-up charges and only she can save him.

What ​is the secret of talent? How do we unlock it? In this groundbreaking work, journalist and New York Times bestselling author Daniel Coyle provides parents, teachers, coaches, businesspeople—and everyone else—with tools they can use to maximize potential in themselves and others. Whether you’re coaching soccer or teaching a child to play the piano, writing a novel or trying to improve your golf swing, this revolutionary book shows you how to grow talent by tapping into a newly discovered brain mechanism. Drawing on cutting-edge neurology and firsthand research gathered on journeys to nine of the world’s talent hotbeds—from the baseball fields of the Caribbean to a classical-music academy in upstate New York—Coyle identifies the three key elements that will allow you to develop your gifts and optimize your performance in sports, art, music, math, or just about anything. • Deep Practice--Everyone knows that practice is a key to success. What everyone doesn’t know is that specific kinds of practice can increase skill up to ten times faster than conventional practice. • Ignition--We all need a little motivation to get started. But what separates truly high achievers from the rest of the pack? A higher level of commitment—call it passion—born out of our deepest unconscious desires and triggered by certain primal cues. Understanding how these signals work can help you ignite passion and catalyze skill development. • Master Coaching--What are the secrets of the world’s most effective teachers, trainers, and coaches? Discover the four virtues that enable these “talent whisperers” to fuel passion, inspire deep practice, and bring out the best in their students. These three elements work together within your brain to form myelin, a microscopic neural substance that adds vast amounts of speed and accuracy to your movements and thoughts. Scientists have discovered that myelin might just be the holy grail: the foundation of all forms of greatness, from Michelangelo’s to Michael Jordan’s. The good news about myelin is that it isn’t fixed at birth; to the contrary, it grows, and like anything that grows, it can be cultivated and nourished. Combining revelatory analysis with illuminating examples of regular people who have achieved greatness, this book will not only change the way you think about talent, but equip you to reach your own highest potential.
