Solo, circondato da una natura brulla, tenta di sintonizzare di nuovo mente e corpo, per riprendere a comporre e suonare, ma gli incubi lo perseguitano e l'incertezza aumenta. Finché un giorno, nel silenzio di una radura, una voce lo prega: "Accudiscimi".

I januari 2014 får Henning Mankell sitt cancerbesked - och det är ett allvarligt sådant. När nyheten sjunkit in börjar han tänka på livet och vad det egentligen betyder att vara människa. I "Kvicksand" ser han tillbaka på sitt eget liv, från barnsben till ålderns höst. Han berättar om händelserna som gjort honom till den han blivit, om möten han haft och möten han önskar hade ägt rum. Resultatet är en bok om mänsklighet och livsglädje, och om styrkan att återfinna fotfästet, när tillvaron känns som mörkast.

As a child, Anna Wintour was a tomboy with no apparent interest in clothing, but, seduced by the miniskirts and bob haircuts of swinging 1960s London, she grew into a fashion-obsessed teenager. Her father, the influential editor of the Evening Standard, loomed large in her life, and once he decided she should become editor in chief of Vogue, she never looked back. Impatient to start her career, she left high school and got a job at a fashionable boutique in London—an experience that would be the first of many defeats.

Story
L'ultima vita di Carmelo Bene. Dobbiamo essere grati a Luisa Viglietti – scrive Goffredo Fofi – di averci restituito un Carmelo Bene quotidiano, semplice e vicino ma pur sempre diverso e anzi unico: gli ultimi anni di un grande artista, attivo e progettante fino agli estremi momenti di una vita densissima. Disse qualcuno, e sapeva di dire un paradosso ma intuendone la verità, che spesso si impara di più leggendo le vite dei grandi filosofi di quanto non si impari leggendo le loro opere. E questo si pensa anche leggendo questi vivi e bellissimi ricordi.

Story
Vom Leben und anderen Komplikationen – Moderatorin Bettina Tietjen zieht Bilanz. Als Bettina Tietjen im Keller ihre alten Tagebücher wiederfindet, beginnt für sie eine aufwühlende Zeitreise. Sie begegnet ihrem 14-jährigen Ich wieder, das sich leidenschaftlich politisch positioniert, taucht ein in die ersten, manchmal auch nur heiß ersehnten Liebschaften, die Jahre der Abnabelung vom strenggläubigen Elternhaus und die große Suche nach dem Lebensglück.

Story
"Les personnes que je croise me regardent comme une vieille connaissance à laquelle elles associent deux images contradictoires : la présentatrice d'une émission qui fut célèbre il y a plus de vingt ans et qui demeure dans la mémoire collective ; la femme qui fit, à son corps défendant, des milliers de "unes" de journaux à l'occasion d'un scandale planétaire impliquant son mari. N'étant pas seulement l'une et ne me reconnaissant pas dans l'autre, je me suis finalement résolue à écrire mes Mémoires, après y avoir été longtemps réticente."

Story
This Very Short introduction explores the major themes of Austen criticism through close analysis of her major and minor works, with particular emphasis on the literary, social, and political backgrounds from which the novels emerge, and with which they engage. Thomas Keymer combines critical introductions to each of Austen's six major novels with an exploration of the key themes in her works.
