Kafka und Satie - Erzählungen von Franz Kafka inszeniert mit Musik von Eriki Satie. Franz Kafkas kurze Erzählungen vereinen Phantastisches, Paradoxes und Absurdes. Unglaubliches und Unerhörtes wird da beschrieben, minutiös, nüchtern-ernst und oft verblüffend komisch. Grenzbereiche unseres Lebens werden ausgeleuchtet, existenzielle Grund- oder Ausnahmesituationen in unvergessliche, traumverwandte Bilder gefasst, geschrieben in einer wunderbar klaren Sprache, die im Deutschen ihresgleichen sucht.

Mistaking an ad to join the titular The Loneliest Band in France for one to sell his blood, Migara de Silva, the novella’s narrator—a Sri Lankan student, new to Montpellier—finds himself, instead, under the sway of the band, drinking heavily and being recruited to play a battle-of-the-bands-esque concert (that night) at the local Café Bovary with its four members: Noël, Guy, Lucien, and Michel. Not only is there prize money attached to the concert, the bandmates also see this as an opportunity to debut a new song—one, they claim, that can hurt—even kill—its listeners.

In the midst of being ensnared in a devious revenge plot, Spike the Wonder Dog manages to unleash his celebrated brand of absurdist humor, shrewd social commentary, and certifiably funny grievances at human shortcomings, while romping through all manner of sexy scenarios in the rich and famous playgrounds of Palm Beach, Manhattan, and East Hampton.

In this audacious and honest debut, a college student’s life in New York City serves as a satirical endorsement of modern life everywhere. Collin finds the self-service kiosks at McDonald’s consistent and calming in an otherwise chaotic world. He stands before one, swiping through the interactive menu as a way to ground himself more firmly in his reality—a reality of video games, posting furniture on Craigslist, and chatting with strangers on Discord. He mutters, “No man is an island,” and then realizes he hasn't spoken out loud since he last said, “semipermeable membrane."

Воспаление мозгов — рассказ Михаила Булгакова, посвященный всем редакторам еженедельных журналов. В произведении рассказывается о том, как ошалевший от жары и голода писатель, вынужденный срочно написать историю для одного журнала, вступил в беседу с собственными мозгами. И вот что из этого вышло.

Ein Roman von Franz Kafka, gesprochen von Moritz Brendel. Im Mittelpunkt steht der Bankangestellte Josef K., gegen den ein Prozess anhängig ist. Das Gericht agiert im Geheimen, und bis zu seiner Hinrichtung erfährt K. nicht einmal den Grund der Anklage. Ort der Handlung ist eine fiktive deutsche Großstadt. Die Zeit der Handlung stimmt mit ihrer Entstehungszeit überein. Dennoch, die Welt, die er erschaffen hat, scheint weniger als andere literarische Welten an Zeit und Raum gebunden, obwohl sie fest in realistischer Schilderung fundiert ist und von dort immer wieder ins scheinbar Phantastische schweift.

Charlie is already feeling adrift when she relocates to an exclusive town in coastal New England with her mysteriously distant husband, Dev, and their young twins in tow.

In a strange new world where summer is a verb and both the harbor and the partygoers are awash in a dizzying constellation of pinks and pastels, she’s never felt so confounded or alone. She’ll need more than a preppy handbook to find her way.
