Kafelek mistrza Alojzego

Zbigniew Białas

Kafelek mistrza Alojzego to epicka powieść składająca się z dwóch tomów, które wcześniej ukazały się osobno. Tom pierwszy, Korzeniec (2011), zdobył uznanie czytelników i krytyków, został nagrodzony Śląskim Wawrzynem Literackim i trafił na deski Teatru Zagłębia w postaci wielokrotnie nagradzanej adaptacji scenicznej. Tom drugi, Puder i pył (2013), stał się zaczynem debat, które przez kilka sezonów prowadził Teatr Śląski. Czytelnik trzyma w dłoniach scaloną historię, powieść historyczno-obyczajową z wyraźnym wątkiem sensacyjnym. Jej akcja rozgrywa się tuż przed pierwszą wojną światową i zaraz po niej. Wśród plejady bohaterów prym wiodą: uzależniona od absyntu wdowa po glazurniku pisząca po kryjomu powieści w odcinkach, pewien niezbyt odważny redaktor, któremu przypadła w udziale rola detektywa, fińska bona pracująca w pałacu Króla Wełny, znana aktorka kinematograficzna, Pola Negri i zakochany w niej hrabia Eugeniusz Dąmbski, celnicy, artyści, rzemieślnicy i przemytnicy. Polacy, Niemcy, Żydzi, Rosjanie. I bohater główny, miasto Sosnowiec – tygiel kultur – przestrzeń sekretów i zakamarków; miasto ukrytych pasji i motywacji. A cała spirala zdarzeń… zaczyna się od skromnego kafelka mistrza Alojzego Korzeńca.

Salute to Adventurers

John Buchan

In John Buchans thrill-a-minute novel Salute to Adventurers, hero Andrew Garvald makes his way from the dreary moors of his native land to the deceptively bucolic landscape of early colonial America. A novel set during the beginning of the Jamestown Colony, Salute To Adventurers is an enthralling saga about one mans struggle to survive and even find love in a land beset by trade controls with England enforced by pirates, religious strife manifested through a fanatic who stirs Indian tribes to attack settlers, harsh environmental conditions, the unending chores of daily life, and much more. Faced with adversity, danger and social scorn, Garvald nevertheless stands firm in his commitment to bringing fairness and order to the burgeoning colony. Will he achieve this aim and live to tell the tale? Painting a vivid picture of what it was once like to earn a living in untamed lands, Salute To Adventure is an exciting chronicle featuring conflicts of man vs. nature and man vs. man alike.
