Alice stumbles into the world of Wonderland. Will she get home? Not if the Queen of Hearts has her way. Here is Lewis Carroll's iconic tale of Alice's adventures down the rabbit hole.

Alice ist aufgeweckt, um nicht vorlaut sagen zu müssen, neugierig und, was am wichtigsten ist, verträumt. Sie lässt ihrer Fantasie freien Lauf und entdeckt dadurch Dinge, die Erwachsenen mit ihrer Sicht der Dinge oft verborgen bleiben. So entdeckt sie eines Tages, während sie mit ihrer Schwester an einem See sitzt, ein hektisches, weißes Häschen, das immer wieder auf eine Uhr schaut. Als sie das weiße Häschen verfolgt, gerät sie in ein Abenteuer, das seines Gleichen sucht.

Naples '44 is an unflinching autobiographical account of a year in Naples after the armistice and Allied landings in Sorrento in 1943. Working as a British counterintelligence officer under the Allied occupation, Lewis documents the rich pageant of life in the city and its surrounding areas. There is suffering and squalor: Criminal gangs are on the rise, along with typhus and black market commerce, and the female population is forced into part-time prostitution. But there is farce and humor, too, witnessed in the Roman uncle paid handsomely simply to appear at funerals.

When Alice sees the White Rabbit run by, it occurs to her that she's never seen a rabbit with a watch before. Burning with curiosity, she jumps up and follows him into a rabbit-hole. Then she falls down a long, long way.

The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease, and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do—seek pleasure and relief—in a world that's not cooperating.

The Audacity of Stupid: From Abigail to Jezebel, Navigating Toxic Relationships is your brutally honest, laugh-out-loud guide to spotting—and surviving—the emotional minefield of toxic relationships.

Through a unique blend of biblical stories, modern-day parables, and satirical commentary, Carla Henry-Lewis, author of the Stress Makeover Series, exposes the patterns of emotional manipulation, codependency, and self-sabotage we often overlook.

Officer K was the elite undercover cop who put her life on the line to fight crime, only to make the shocking discovery that her colleagues were more corrupt than the criminal gangs she infiltrated. Part of a unit once dubbed the Scottish FBI, this undercover officer—one of only a small number of women operating at that level in the UK—was forced out of her job after she exposed a colleague's gross misconduct and financial mismanagement, potentially putting the lives of covert officers at risk.

London, 1941. Britain has endured the relentless bombing campaign of the Blitz and emerged, scarred but unbroken. Caitrin, too, strives to weather each challenge that comes her way, though her ever-ready banter belies deep heartbreak and loss. But now the war has entered another phase. Instead of indiscriminate bombing, the Luftwaffe is pinpointing historic targets, including cathedrals and ancestral homes. It's as if Germany plans to erase Britain's very essence and culture, destroying morale as it does so.

Alice im Wunderland ist ein erstmals 1865 erschienenes Kinderbuch des britischen Schriftstellers Lewis Carroll. Alice im Wunderland gilt als eines der hervorragenden Werke aus dem Genre des literarischen Nonsens. Während ihre Schwester ihr aus einem Buch vorliest, sieht die Titelheldin Alice ein sprechendes, weißes Kaninchen, das auf eine Uhr starrt und meint, es komme zu spät. Neugierig folgt Alice ihm in seinen Bau. Dort fällt sie weit hinunter und landet in einem Raum mit vielen Türen. Nach einiger Zeit findet sie einen Schlüssel, mit dem sie die kleinste Tür aufsperren kann.

Follow Alice as she tumbles into a world where hats are mad, cats vanish mid-sentence, and queens take croquet far too seriously. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland isn't just a book—it's a portal into delightful absurdity, linguistic acrobatics, and the kind of dream logic only Lewis Carroll could conjure. With wit sharper than the Queen's axe and characters as bizarre as your strangest dreams, this is the ultimate escape for the logically exhausted and the wonderfully curious. Step through the looking... no, wait—that's another story. Just follow the White Rabbit.

The fighters are preparing themselves to step into Tovar's realm and put an end to the war he's started. They aim to rescue their captured allies and stop Tovar before he can resurrect Draorahm.

Helen Lewis argues that feminism’s success is down to complicated, contradictory, imperfect women who fought each other as well as fighting for equal rights.
