Este libro cuenta las divertidas, y con frecuencia desconcertantes, experiencias de Ulpiano Pizarro en su primer año como profesor de Filosofía e Historia en secundaria, es decir, de «eso» que llaman ESO. Convertido en un verdadero lazarillo de sus alumnos, Ulpiano narra con humor y acidez el día a día en un instituto, donde deberá enfrentarse a adolescentes sobrehormonados capaces de preguntarle: «Entonces, ¿si dejo de comer fruta solo veré en blanco y negro?» o responder en un examen que «El homo eructus vivía en las tabernas».

Naufragaba entre manuscritos de crónica del Concurso del Libro Sonorense. Tocó su turno a No toda la sangre es roja. Aquí apesta a puro noir, me dije mientras apuraba un Jack Daniel’s. Quien bautiza su trabajo con un nombre pateador tiene su primer gol anotado antes de entrar a la cancha. Este canijo es un muertero. Un tipo duro, aunque por fortuna no una máquina registradora de estadísticas criminales, porque cuando el muerto se vuelve un número condenado a ser nota de cuatro párrafos, muere por segunda vez.

Irina obsessively takes explicit photographs of the average-looking men she persuades to model for her, scouted from the streets of Newcastle. Placed on sabbatical from her dead-end bar job, she is offered an exhibition at a fashionable London gallery, promising to revive her career in the art world and offering an escape from her rut of drugs, alcohol and extreme cinema. The news triggers a self-destructive tailspin, centred around Irina's relationship with her obsessive best friend and a shy young man from her local supermarket who has attracted her attention....

Bestsellerautor Markus Heitz erzählt in dieser ganz besonderen Weihnachts-Anthologie von einem Mädchen, das nicht nur den Nikolaus das Fürchten lehrt, weil sie statt dem gewünschten X-Mas-House-Of-Horror einen rosafarbenen Pullover bekommt, vom Treiben der Unheiligen drei Könige oder dem egoistischen Weihnachts-Muffel Quentin, dem eine Kita-Theater-Truppe mit einer ganz besonderen Vorstellung die Ehrfurcht vor dem Fest einbläut. In "Der Tannenbaum des Todes" wird das Beste aus zehn Jahren eines einmaligen Weihnachts-Live-Events erstmals in einem Buch versammelt!

Le nouveau phénomène de l'humour vient de Berlin-Est... Et c'est un kangourou ! Un jour, Marc-Uwe Kling voit débarquer chez lui un kangourou sans gêne. Communiste et chômeur, le marsupial vide le réfrigérateur et refuse de payer un loyer. Surtout, il entraîne le narrateur - souvent contre son gré - dans des conversations à bâtons rompus brassant tous les sujets, du totalitarisme des marchands de soupe en sachet aux tatouages de Robbie Williams. Difficile à la lecture de savoir qui des deux protagonistes montre le plus de mauvais esprit.

The mission: find out what happened, by any means necessary.

Gestorben wird immer, aber selten so vergnügt: "Der Tod ist schwer zu überleben" von Bestsellerautor Sebastian Niedlich jetzt als Hörbuch. Es gibt Traumjobs. Es gibt Höllenjobs. Und es gibt den Job, vor dem sich Martin bisher erfolgreich gedrückt hat - denn eigentlich soll er Nachfolger seines besten Freundes werden, dem leibhaftigen Tod. Stattdessen gibt es nun plötzlich andere Kandidaten für den Job, zu denen eine mordlustige Studentin, ein liebenswerter Pazifist und eine trinkfeste Russin gehören. Aber ist einer von ihnen die richtige Wahl?

Kathy is a writer. Kathy is getting married. It’s the summer of 2017 and the whole world is falling apart. Fast-paced and frantic, Crudo unfolds in real time from the full-throttle perspective of a commitment-phobic artist who may or may not be Kathy Acker. From a Tuscan hotel for the super-rich to a Brexit-paralyzed UK, Kathy spends the first summer of her 40s adjusting to the idea of a lifelong commitment. But it’s not only Kathy who’s changing. Fascism is on the rise, truth is dead, the planet is heating up, and Trump is tweeting the world ever-closer to nuclear war.

Manchmal hat man einen schlechten Tag. Manchmal hat man auch einen SEHR schlechten Tag. Und manchmal wird man von einer herabstürzenden Kirchturmspitze zerquetscht. Genau das passiert Jonas - und damit könnte diese Geschichte nun auch schon wieder vorbei sein. Aber Gott (die Älteren unter uns werden sich erinnern: der Allmächtige) hat andere Pläne: Er will den etwas chaotischen und zur schlechten Laune neigenden Berliner zum neuen Messias machen. Also wird Jonas von den Toten erweckt.

Mit Humor ist alles leichter - selbst dann, wenn man in einem Restaurant landet, in dem auch das Jüngste Gericht serviert wird. Oder wenn man den schrecklichsten Liebeskummer aller Zeiten hat. Oder man ein klitzekleines bisschen daran schuld sein könnte, dass die Erde von galaktischen Angreifern in die Luft gesprengt wird. Klingt verrückt? Ist es auch! Und das Einhorn, das beim Ende der Welt eine durchaus tragende Rolle spielt, haben wir bisher noch nicht einmal erwähnt.

Yet another brilliant entry in Kenemore’s zombie canon - Cap’n Hook meets the undead.

À la mort de Muriel, sa mère, Maxime se rend au Pays basque pour les funérailles. Il assiste à la crémation en état de choc et, quand on lui donne les cendres, ne sait pas quoi en faire. Il dépose donc l'urne dans le panier à commissions de sa mère pour emmener celle-ci une dernière fois faire ses courses au marché. Une initiative en forme d'hommage épicurien qui devient embarrassante lorsque, entre les étals de fruits et de poissons, apparaît Maylis, la jolie infirmière qui s'est occupée de Muriel.

This skillfully wrought examination of character and relationships opens with macabre impact. A bland newspaper report describes the discovery of two dead women - one of them a skeleton - in a North London house. The author teases the reader toward the known, grisly ending by cutting back and forth in time and gradually constructing the complex pattern of emotions and events that define even the most mundane-seeming lives.
