    • Na redu je vreme istine. Knjiga o istini – i svim genijalnim načinima na koje su ljudi kroz istoriju uspevali da je izbegnu. Kaže se da živimo u "vremenu posle istine": predsednik Sjedinjenih Američkih Država svakodnevno govori besmislice, internet je učinio život informatičkim ratom i stručnjacima se više ne veruje. Ali, da li je ikada postojalo zlatno doba govora istine? U svom radu u organizaciji za proveru činjenica Full Fact, Tom Phillips se svakodnevno suočava s lažnim informacijama. U ovoj knjizi on govori o tome kako su ljudi kroz istoriju lagali jedni drugima i sebi, i postavlja važno pitanje: kako čovečanstvo može preći ka istinitijoj budućnosti?

      From the New York Times bestselling novelist, a stunning historical novel that follows the story of Mary Anning and Elizabeth Philpot, two extraordinary 19th century fossil hunters who changed the scientific world forever. On the windswept, fossil-strewn beaches of the English coast, poor and uneducated Mary learns that she has a unique gift: "the eye" to spot ammonites and other fossils no one else can see. When she uncovers an unusual fossilized skeleton in the cliffs near her home, she sets the religious community on edge, the townspeople to gossip, and the scientific world alight. After enduring bitter cold, thunderstorms, and landslips, her challenges only grow when she falls in love with an impossible man. Mary soon finds an unlikely champion in prickly Elizabeth, a middle-class spinster who shares her passion for scouring the beaches. Their relationship strikes a delicate balance between fierce loyalty, mutual appreciation, and barely suppressed envy, but ultimately turns out to be their greatest asset. From the author of At the Edge of the Orchard and Girl With a Pearl Earring comes this incredible story of two remarkable women and their voyage of discovery.
