Dieuwertje Blok debuteert met een ontroerende ontdekkingstocht door het oorlogsverleden en -dagboek van haar Joodse moeder. 'Henny Gazan, mijn moeder, was zeventien toen de oorlog uitbrak en zat tweeënhalf jaar ondergedoken. Tweeënhalf jaar kon ze niet naar buiten en moest ze zich zelfs af en toe een avond in een kast verstoppen. Ook mijn grootouders doken onder en overleefden zo de oorlog. De rest van mijn familie van moederskant heb ik nooit gekend, ze zijn vrijwel allemaal vermoord. Mijn moeder wist daardoor als geen ander wat vrijheid betekende.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 - 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen der Jahres 1932. Seine Berichterstattungen sind sehr genau und zeugen von der Bildung eines aufgeklärten Europäers. 1932 ist wie ein langer dunkler Dezember ohne Advent und Weihnachten. Der größte Teil des Textes behandelt die aufgeheizten Debatten um die Politik des Tages (5 große Wahlen in 8 Monaten). Den Terror der Nazis auf den Straßen und die Sabotage der Weimarer Institutionen aus den Hinterzimmern des Parlaments.

The crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers, or even soccer stars, to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector’s pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio’s leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love.

Rituales chamánicos, el tamborilero que derrotó a Napoleón en 1808, un alcalde que balbucea ante Franco y espárragos que avistan ovnis: todo tiene cabida en El Bruc, un municipio a los pies de Montserrat que puede ser leído como un palimpsesto. El autor, un forastero apenas aterrizado, se entrega al ritmo biológico de la montaña y la observa y la vive desde sus estratos simbólicos y místicos, históricos y glocales.

100 Quotes by Anne Frank is a poignant collection of thoughts and observations from the world’s most famous diarist. Touching, observational, and often funny, these quotes create a collage of a teenager whose world had been turned upside down.

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...

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.

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.

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...

"18 janvier 1895 : Un bon mot vaut mieux qu'un mauvais livre." Le Journal intime de Jules Renard s'étend de 1887 à sa mort en 1910. Plus qu'une confession, il s'agit de dialogues pris sur le vif et de maximes, souvent piquantes, sur des personnes de son entourage et plus largement à propos de traits de caractère ou de faits de société. Jules Renard note également ses réflexions sur l'écriture et la réception critique de la littérature.
