Story
Nach dem Tod der Mutter halten ihre beiden Kinder, ein pflichtversessener Beamter und eine dem weltlichen Leben abgewandte Nonne, Totenwache. Während der Nacht finden sie Briefe der Verstorbenen und beschließen, diese zu lesen, um so über den Tod hinaus eine Verbindung zu ihrer Mutter und deren Familie zu halten. Doch einige dieser Briefe behandeln Themen, die sie bei ihrer sittenstrengen Mutter ganz und gar nicht erwartet hätten... Die "Totenwache" ist eine wunderbare Miniatur: Kein Wort zuviel – und die Geschichte entfaltet sich im Kopf der Hörenden.

Story
Giuseppe Verdi, Italiens berühmtester Opernkomponist, fährt 1883 zum Karneval nach Venedig. Wer aber hält sich ebenfalls dort auf? Richard Wagner, dessen Erfolg und Selbstbewusstsein Verdi zutiefst verunsichern. Als die beiden sich begegnen, ohne dass Wagner seinen Rivalen zu erkennen scheint, ist Verdi niedergeschmettert. Für ihn ist klar: Wagner repräsentiert die Zukunft der Oper; er selbst die Vergangenheit. Doch rafft er sich auf – er will Wagner aufsuchen. Jedoch – Wagner ist in der vergangenen Nacht gestorben.

Story
IIn the summer of 1850, a topsail schooner slipped into the cove under the rocky promontory of Trinidad Head in California and dropped anchor at the edge of the kelp (algae)-fields. Fifteen minutes later her small-boat deposited on the beach a man armed with long squirrel-rifle and an axe, and carrying food and clothing in a brown canvas pack. From the beach he saw the schooner raise anchor and stand out to sea before the northwest trade winds. When it disappeared from his view, he swung his pack to his broad back and strode resolutely into the timber at the mouth of a little river.

Story
Frederick Faust (pen name Max Brand) was said to have written in excess of twenty-five million words as he seemed to have a button to push to generate fictional ideas. Of course, it’s known that much of his work was issued under pen names, around twenty of them, a great many of them wild Westerns. This one that features a drifter named Donnegan. He gets off a train and takes on a job with a rich man who doesn’t seem to care much about the difference between rights and wrongs.

Rok 1651. Siedemnastoletni Robinson Crusoe nie chce wieść nudnego życia jak jego ojciec, kupiec z angielskiego miasta Hull, więc ucieka z domu i zaciąga się na kolejne statki. Podczas jednej z wypraw, w 1659 r., statek się rozbija i Robinson jest jedynym ocalałym. Trafia na bezludną wyspę, gdzie, jak się okaże, spędzi następne 28 lat. Powoli zagospodarowuje się, buduje dom, uprawia zboże, oswaja kozy i papugę, wytwarza naczynia. W przetrwaniu pomagają mu znalezione przedmioty z innego rozbitego statku.
