Story0
James Douglas's book Under an August Moon is a coarse and intimate memoir that outlines the severe undermining of a toxic relationship. Beginning with the heartache of personal loss and moving through the rough stages of an abusive marriage, Douglas incorporates a story that is as emotionally engrossing as it is brutally honest. Furthermore, the book grasps the sophistications of love, betrayal, and self-discovery in a setting of small-town life and societal intimidations.

Story0
In less than six hours in August 1942, nearly 1,000 British, Canadian, and American commandos died in the French port of Dieppe in an operation that, for decades, seemed to have no real purpose. Canadian historian David O’Keefe uses hitherto classified intelligence archives to prove that this catastrophic and apparently futile raid was, in fact, a mission set up by Ian Fleming of British Naval Intelligence as part of a “pinch” policy designed to capture material relating to the four-rotor Enigma Machine.

Med strålende humor og sikker sagkundskab fortæller August Strindberg om dagligdag og fester blandt den stockholmske skærgårds ejendommelige befolkning. Det er praktiske, handlekraftige mennesker der nærmest opfatter kærligheden som en slags naturkraft og religionen som et udtryk for sæd og skik uden større indflydelse på deres liv.

Ein Wandtelefon und ein Koffer voller Erinnerungen. August Zirner und Ana Zirner beginnen etwa zeitgleich damit, sich für die Geschichten ihrer Großmütter zu interessieren. Beide empfinden eine zaghafte "Jewish Identity", hinterfragen diese jedoch kritisch: Nutzen wir sie aus, um ein "reines Familiengewissen" vertreten zu können? Und was kann uns noch gegeben werden von den starken Frauen, die uns vorangegangen sind? Sie blicken nach Wien, in die Zeit zwischen den Weltkriegen. Ella Zirner-Zwieback leitet das noble Modekaufhaus "Maison Zwieback" in der Kärntnerstraße.
