Endlich sind alle drei Rabengeschichten in einer Hörbuchedition versammelt. Zu den zwei Bilderbuchklassikern Als die Raben noch bunt waren und Der Rabe, der anders war, die vom wundersamen Farbwechsel der zerstrittenen Vögel und dem ungewollten Buntraben erzählen, gesellt sich nun eine neu veröffentlichte Geschichte. In Wer will den blauen Raben haben? vertreibt ein Feuer den Blauraben aus seiner Heimat. Eine Reise ins Unbekannte beginnt, die ihn übers Meer und an fremde Ufer führt.

Bestsellerautor Eric Stehfest und seine Frau Edith haben trotz ihrer jungen Jahre bereits unbeschreiblich viel durchlebt: eine zerrüttete Kindheit, früher Drogenkonsum, Entzüge, Eskapaden. Dann die Liebe der beiden, eine Hochzeit, ein Sohn. Doch das Konstrukt der klassischen Ehe, die gesellschaftlichen Normen, funktionieren nicht für sie. Zwei Freigeister stellen fest, dass sie sich selbst gar nicht kennen, sich selbst erst entdecken müssen. Wortgewaltig und ungebremst begleiten wir Eric und Edith dabei, wie sie sich selbst neu erschaffen.

Per non dimenticare e per non far dimenticare, Edith Bruck, a sessant'anni dal suo primo libro, sorvola sulle ali della memoria eterna i propri passi, scalza e felice con poco come durante l'infanzia, con zoccoli di legno per le quattro stagioni, sul suolo della Polonia di Auschwitz e nella Germania seminata di campi di concentramento.

Testimone dell'orrore della Shoah, cui ha dato voce nelle sue opere tradotte e premiate in tutto il mondo, Edith Bruck torna con un memoir tenero e struggente, in cui la grande storia e le sue tragedie si affacciano come sfondo al racconto intimo dell'amore e della dedizione per suo marito, il poeta Nelo Risi, scomparso nel 2015. Edith Bruck ha scelto di stargli accanto sino alla fine, trascorrendo con lui, accanto a lui, gli anni della progressiva malattia che lo ha allontanato dal mondo, dai suoi ricordi, dagli affetti, dal lavoro.

Uscito nel 1920, "L'età dell'innocenza" vale alla sua autrice, Edith Wharton, il premio Pulitzer: sarà la prima donna a vederselo assegnare. Il libro è una critica spietata alla convenzionalità dell'alta società newyorchese: una vera aristocrazia immobiliare in cui le famiglie sono le stesse da generazioni, le donne un ornamento e gli uomini non fanno nulla neppure quando fingono di andare in ufficio. I ricchi personaggi dell'"Età dell'innocenza" vivono tutti nello stesso quadrilatero di strade, e d'estate si spostano tutti quanti a Newport.
