Szuper Hugi
￥40.38
Verne egyik legsikerültebb és legnépszer?bb regénye, melyet mindenféle m?fajban újra és újra feldolgoznak. A lebilincsel? t?rténet mindenki fantáziáját megmozgatja, a siker garantált. Pedig már szinte a legapróbb gyerekekt?l a feln?ttekig mindenki tudja, mi t?rténik: Phileas Fogg úr – az el?kel? londoni Reform Club tagja – vállalkozik arra, hogy fogadásból 80 nap alatt k?rül utazza a F?ldet. A regény mégis olyan fordulatos, annyi mulatságos meglepetést tartogat, Verne olyan találóan jellemzi szerepl?it, hogy az olvasók újra és újra megjutalmazzák magukat a k?tet élményével. Nem csoda, hisz Phileas Fogg és Passepartout fantasztikus kalandokkal teli világ k?rüli útja sohasem pontosan ugyanúgy zajlik.
Arany János – TOLDI
￥90.42
"Reportajele din aceast? carte vorbesc despre aspecte din istoria recent?, cum ar fi migra?ia, corup?ia, via?a ?n penitenciare sau problemele minorit??ilor, ?nchiderea spitalelor sau stresul care schimb? vie?i, crizele din s?n?tate, pove?ti ale unor oameni obi?nui?i, care fac lucruri speciale. Reg?sim, ?ns?, ?i pove?ti de demult, cum e cazul reportajelor despre lupt?torii anticomuni?ti din mun?i, despre tezaurul de la Pietroasele sau istoriile din satele s?se?ti. Reportajele surprind realit??i dintr-o Rom?nie aflat? ?n continu? schimbare, cu enorme discrepan?e. Sunt ca o fotografie a realit??ii. Cine le cite?te afl? cum se tr?ia sau cum se tr?ie?te ?n anumite locuri. Cum se schimb? sau de ce nu se schimb? lucrurile ?i mentalit??ile. Cartea cuprinde 30 de reportaje publicate ?n revista Dilema veche, dar ?i adapt?ri dup? reportaje sau documentare radio difuzate la Europa FM ?i Radio Rom?nia Actualit??i. Reportajul e un gen mai rar ?nt?lnit ast?zi ?n presa din Rom?nia. Dar asta nu se ?nt?mpl? din cauza lipsei de interes a publicului, ci din pricina lipsei de bani ?i de investi?ii ?ntr-o pres? de calitate. De fiecare dat? c?nd totu?i apar reportaje bine f?cute, se constat? c? publicul le urm?re?te cu interes, tot a?a cum urm?re?te reportajele ?i documentarele oferite de televiziunile str?ine. Asta fiindc? oamenii au nevoie de pove?ti. Un reportaj bine f?cut este de fapt o poveste adev?rat?. P?n? la urm?, ?i aceast? carte este o carte cu pove?ti adev?rate." (Liliana Nicolae)
