Historia
What was Pol Pot eating while two million Cambodians were dying of hunger? Did Idi Amin really eat human flesh? And why was Fidel Castro obsessed with one particular cow? Traveling across four continents, from the ruins of Iraq to the savannahs of Kenya, Witold Szabłowski tracked down the personal chefs of five dictators known for the oppression and massacre of their own citizens—Iraq’s Saddam Hussein, Uganda’s Idi Amin, Albania’s Enver Hoxha, Cuba’s Fidel Castro, and Cambodia’s Pol Pot—and listened to their stories.

Excellent idea, beautifully executed. I have enjoyed every word of this story. And, as a native Pole, living in the United States of America, I can appreciate such a very thorough translation.

Historia
George Orwell depicts a gray, totalitarian world dominated by Big Brother and its vast network of agents, including the Thought Police - a world in which news is manufactured according to the authorities' will and people live tepid lives by rote. Winston Smith, a hero with no heroic qualities, longs only for truth and decency. But living in a social system in which privacy does not exist and where those with unorthodox ideas are brainwashed or put to death, he knows there is no hope for him.

I grew up in socialism of central Europe. 1984 shows exactly what such leftist ideologies have to offer to humanity. I hope they never succeed.

The book is great but the narrator should have consulted someone fluent in English. I have enjoyed it, since I had lived in Toronto area for 8 years in the late eighties/early nineties.

Historia
Jeden z najwiekszych polskich bestsellerów dwudziestego wieku! Trzy razy przeniesiony na ekran, z niezapomnianymi kreacjami glównych bohaterów, jakie stworzyli Roman Wilhelmi, Eugeniusz Bodo i Cezary Pazura. Pomimo uplywu czasu "Kariera Nikodema Dyzmy" jest aktualna w obecnej rzeczywistosci. Perypetie i blyskotliwa kariera polityczna niejakiego Dyzmy w humorystyczny sposób obrazuje ciemniejsza strone II RP gdzie znajomosci, dostep do salonów wladzy i korupcja stanowily podstawy kariery niejednego polityka.

Great story, excellent plot. Well presented. Masterpiece of Polish literature. Too bad its author died at such young age fighting for Poland's independence.

Historia
The host of Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson Tonight offers a blistering critique of the new American ruling class, the elites of both parties, who have taken over the ship of state, leaving the rest of us, the citizen-passengers, to wonder: How do we put the country back on course?

I have really enjoyed this comprehensive, yet very easy to follow explanation of democracy in America, and some of the most dangerous attempts to destroy it.

Historia
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Historia
From her years as the presidential press secretary to her debates with colleagues on Fox News' The Five, Dana Perino reveals the lessons she's learned that have guided her through life, kept her level-headed, and led to her success, even in the face of adversity. Thoughtful, inspiring, and often surprising, And the Good News Is...traces Dana Perino's unlikely journey through politics and television. It's a remarkable American story-made up of equal parts determination and clear-eyed optimism.

I have found this book to be very optimistic, easy to digest and very motivational. Just another example that one is able to achieve almost any goal in America if enough passion, time and effort are applied.

Historia
The year is 1763. Gideon Seymour, cutpurse and gentleman, hides in dense underbrush from the villainous Tar Man. Suddenly the sky peels away like fabric and from the gaping hole fall two curious-looking children. Peter Schock and Kate Dyer have fallen straight from the 21st century, thanks to an experiment Kate's father was running with an antigravity machine.
