Bruce Lee: Letters of the Dragon is a fascinating glimpse of the private Bruce Lee behind the public image—a man with the patience and concern to dedicate as much effort to crafting a thoughtful personal answer to the letter of a young fan as to those from his old friends and associates; an extremely active man never too busy to make time for an old family friend in need of simple companionship; a man who never wrote without careful thought, and never thought from the head alone, but always from the head and heart together.

Dezember stellte sie sich ein, die "unvergleichliche Erwartung", die für ihn mit Heiligabend verbunden war. Eindringlich und nahbar beschreibt er in seinen Briefen an Familie und Freunde wie Anton Kippenberg, Lou Andreas-Salomé oder Franz Xaver Kappus, was ihm das "liebe alte Fest" bedeutet.

A meditative and inspiring diary of Derek Jarman's famous garden at Dungeness. In 1986 Derek Jarman discovered he was HIV positive and decided to make a garden at his cottage on the barren coast of Dungeness. Facing an uncertain future, he nevertheless found solace in nature, growing all manner of plants.

Bachmann studiert dort Philosophie, für Paul Celan ist Wien eine Zwischenstation. Im Mai 1948 lernen sie einander kennen, Ende Juni geht er nach Paris. Ihr Briefwechsel nach der Trennung ist zuerst schütter, verläuft zögernd, dann setzt er sich fort in immer neuen dramatischen Phasen. Jede dieser Phasen hat ihr eigenes Gesicht: ihren besonderen Ton, ihre Themen, ihre Hoffnungen, ihre Dynamik, ihre eigene Form des Schweigens.

Now, 255 of these letters, a majority of which were previously unpublished, provide the most intimate portrait of Mandela since Long Walk to Freedom.
