La presencia de diversos personajes, como una abuela furibunda y su hermana "libertina", salpica de humor, pero también de fragilidad, las páginas de esta obra que se borda entre el sueño y la vigilia. León de Lidia es un libro inclasificable con historias autónomas, un cuaderno de imágenes y dibujos, una colección de retratos familiares o imaginarios y, sobre todo, una conmovedora novela fragmentaria en la que Myriam Moscona asume las marcas de su singularidad estética. Con una prosa decantada que abreva de su herencia mexicana, búlgara y sefardí...

Frühjahr 1958: Ingeborg Bachmann ist gefeierte Lyrikerin, Preisträgerin der Gruppe 47 und "Coverstar" des Spiegel. Nun wird ihr Hörspiel "Der gute Gott von Manhattan" gesendet. Max Frisch, in dieser Zeit mit Inszenierungen von "Biedermann und die Brandstifter" beschäftigt, schreibt der jungen Dichterin, wie begeistert er von dem Hörspiel und wie wichtig der Blickwinkel der Frau, die Beleuchtung der "anderen Seite" sei.

Born in Edinburgh, Naomi Mitchison spent most of the Second World War in the fishing village of Carradale on Kintyre, her home until her death aged 101. Her life was crowded with incident, and her attitudes to events predictably forceful, original and honest. Throughout the war she kept a diary at the request of the research organisation Mass Observation, in which she recorded both the momentous events of the time, and also how one family and their friends lived, what they hoped for and what actually happened. Her diaries developed far beyond the confines of a social document.

In the summer of 1956, Jack Kerouac hitchhiked from Mill Valley, California, to the North Cascades to spend two months serving as a fire lookout for the US Forest Service.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 – 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen in den Jahren 1930 + 1931. Seine Beobachtungen sind sehr genau und zeugen von der Bildung eines aufgeklärten Europäers. Besonders elegant sind die etwas schmunzelnden manchmal aber auch etwas bitter klingenden voranschreitenden Kommentare. Ein Rezensent drückte es sehr treffend aus: "Ein wunderbarer Zeitzeuge, klug und aufmerksam". 30/31 sind die Jahre des Aufstiegs der Nazis und deren Kriege mit den liberaleren Kräften.

Dacia Maraini che è stata una delle amiche più vicine a Pier Paolo Pasolini, in queste pagine intesse un dialogo intimo e sincero capace di prolungare e ravvivare un affetto profondo, nutrito di stima, esperienze artistiche e cinematografiche, idee e viaggi. Maraini costruisce questa confessione delicata come una corrispondenza senza tempo, in cui tutto è presente e vivo. Una voce necessaria per capire oggi chi è stato davvero uno degli uomini che hanno fatto la storia della cultura del Novecento.

UG Krishnamurti has been called the ‘anti-guru’, the ‘raging sage’ and the ‘thinker who shuns thought’. UG does not give lectures, has no organizations, does not write books, holds no gatherings and peddles no mantras. Yet he is the most talked-about thinker in India. This biography...

"Walle! Walle manche Strecke, dass, zum Zwecke, Wasser fließe...."; wer kennt sie nicht, diese Verse aus dem "Zauberlehrling". Ganz sicher hätte sie Goethe nie geschrieben, wäre der Dichter nicht in regelmäßige Korrespondenz mit Schiller getreten, der ihn anspornte, für seine Zeitschriften eine Fülle von Lyrik und Prosa beizusteuern. Und was für den "Zauberlehrling" gilt, gilt für so viele weitere literarische Glanzpunkte in Goethes' wie auch in Schillers' Werk.

Puto cáncer aborda en primera persona, literariamente y con humor el tránsito de una enfermedad que muchos ni se atreven a pronunciar. En palabras de la autora, se trata del diario íntimo de una paciente oncológica, que mezcla experiencias propias (ella superó un cáncer de intestino diagnosticado a los 35 años) y de otra gente a la que ha acompañado en el grupo de ayuda mutua Apostar a la vida.

"Walle! Walle manche Strecke, dass, zum Zwecke, Wasser fließe...."; wer kennt sie nicht, diese Verse aus dem "Zauberlehrling". Ganz sicher hätte sie Goethe nie geschrieben, wäre der Dichter nicht in regelmäßige Korrespondenz mit Schiller getreten. Ohne ihren regelmäßigen Austausch wäre die literarische Weimarer Klassik, als einer der Höhepunkte der Literatur, heute wohl anderen Inhalts und womöglich weniger reich an großartigen Texten. Begleiten Sie in den Briefen Goethe und Schiller in ihre Denkwerkstatt.

When the Japanese invade in 1942, the Australian men and women stationed at the New Guinea port of Rabaul flee into the jungle. Written off by their government as ‘hostages to fortune', the little-known garrison on Australia's tropic frontier has been left with no modern equipment, no lifeline to the outside, and no means of escape. Most are captured and killed in the sinking of the prison ship Montevideo Maru, which remains Australia's worst sea disaster. But the surviving soldiers and nurses carry on.
