Książka w języku angielskim. "I asked him how much it would take for him to sell FTX and go do something other than make money. He thought the question over. ""One hundred and fifty billion dollars,"" he finally said-though he added that he had use for ""infinity dollars""...' Sam Bankman-Fried wasn't just rich. Before he turned thirty he'd become the world's youngest billionaire, making a record fortune in the crypto frenzy. CEOs, celebrities and world leaders vied for his time. At one point he considered paying off the entire national debt of the Bahamas so he could take his business there. Then it all fell apart. Who was this Gatsby of the crypto world, a rumpled guy in cargo shorts, whose eyes twitched across TV interviews as he played video games on the side, who even his million-dollar investors still found a mystery? What gave him such an extraordinary ability to make money - and how did his empire collapse so spectacularly? Michael Lewis was there when it happened, having got to know Bankman-Fried during his epic rise. In Going Infinite he tells us a story like no other, taking us through the mind-bending trajectory of a character who never liked the rules and was allowed to live by his own. Both psychological portrait of a preternaturally gifted 'thinking machine', and wild financial roller-coaster ride, this is a twenty-first-century epic of high-frequency trading and even higher stakes, of crypto mania and insane amounts of money, of hubris and downfall. No one could tell it better.

Książka w języku angielskim. Clarice Lispector aims to 'capture the present'. Her direct, confessional and unfiltered meditations on everything from life and time to perfume and sleep are strange and hypnotic in their emotional power and have been a huge influence on many artists and writers, including one Brazilian musician who read it one hundred and eleven times. Despite its apparent spontaneity, this is a masterly work of art, which rearranges language and plays in the gaps between reality and fiction.

Książka w języku angielskim. 'All I've got is hunger. And that instable way of grasping an apple in the dark-without letting it fall'. Martim, believing that he has committed a murder, flees the city and escapes into the night. Wandering through the vastness of nature he arrives, in a state of fear and wonder, at a remote ranch run by two women. There Martim finds work and, as he labours in the blistering heat of the Brazilian summer, becomes transfigured; remade into something else entirely.

Powieść angielska
Książka w języku angielskim. Powieść uznawana jest za najlepszy literacki opis totalitaryzmu. Akcja rozgrywa się w fikcyjnym państwie rządzonym przez wszechpotężną Partię pod przywództwem Wielkiego Brata. Obywatele poddani są nieustannej inwigilacji i kontroli, reżim ingeruje w najbardziej intymne sfery życia, nieprawomyślnych eliminuje lub podporządkowuje sobie ich umysły, zamieniając w gorliwych wyznawców. Znakomicie napisany traktat filozoficzny o władzy i patologicznym dyktacie ideologii.
