In 1963 Sylvia Plath took her own life in her London flat. Her death was the culmination of a brief, brilliant life lived in the shadow of clinical depression—a condition exacerbated by her tempestuous relationship with mercurial poet Ted Hughes. The ensuing years saw Plath rise to martyr status while Hughes was cast as the cause of her suicide, his infidelity at the heart of her demise. For decades, Hughes never bore witness to the truth of their marriage—one buried beneath a mudslide of apocryphal stories, gossip, sensationalism, and myth. Until now.

The Völsunga saga is a legendary saga, a late 13th-century poetic rendition in Old Norse of the origin and decline of the Völsung clan (including the story of Sigurd and Brynhild and the destruction of the Burgundians). It is one of the most famous legendary sagas and an example of a "heroic saga" that deals with Germanic heroic legend. The saga covers topics including the quarrel between Sigi and Skaði, a huge family tree of great kings and powerful conquerors and the quest led by Sigmund and Sinfjǫtli to save princess Signý from the evil king Siggeir.

Erich Mühsam war ein anarchistischer Dichter, den deutsche Nazis ermordeten und dessen Bücher sie verbrannten. Erich Mühsam war den Nazis, aber auch allen anderen Anhängern eines deutschen Obrigkeitsstaates als Jude, als Antifaschist, als Dichter des Klassenkampfes und als geistiger Anführer der Münchener Räterepublik verhasst. Vor allem war er ihnen jedoch verhasst, weil er bis zuletzt an der Utopie einer befreiten Menschheit festhielt. Und weil der Antisemitismus in Deutschland und in ganz Europa bis heute eine widerwärtige Zeiterscheinung ist, ist das Werk Erich Mühsams bis heute aktuell.
