Story1
Guatemala, 1954. A CIA-supported military coup topples the government. Behind this violent act is a lie passed off as truth, which forever changed the development of Latin America: that those in power encouraged the spread of Soviet communism in the Americas. Mario Vargas Llosa has written a drama on a world stage, in which some persecutors end up as victims of the very plot they helped construct.

Norbert Gstrein schenkt uns ein ganzes Menschenleben. Dabei ist jedes Leben zerbrechlich in diesem Roman, der mit einem Axthieb beginnt: Adrians Vater macht ihn als Jugendlichen untauglich für den Ersten Weltkrieg, rettet ihn so vielleicht. Der störrische, zärtliche Mensch, der von da an durch über achtzig Lebensjahre hinkt, ist das Wunder dieses Erzählens. Adrian sieht zweimal seine Welt untergehen, hat zweimal mit jungen Männern zu tun, die weniger Glück hatten als er, und erlebt im Alter die unverhoffte Liebesgeschichte eines Mannes, der zu allem erzogen wurde, bloß nicht zum Lieben.

When Hitler’s right-hand man moves in and makes her his pet, she sees an opportunity to help the Resistance - and draw closer to Jack, her contact, whose brusque instructions may be a shield for something more....

Остенде – блистательный морской курорт, на котором в 1936 году собрались писатели, журналисты, издатели, поэты – Стефан Цвейг и Йозеф Рот, Артур Кестлер и Эрнст Толлер - все те, кому нет места в национал-социалистической Германии. Поэты в бегах, писатели в изгнании. Фолькер Вайдерманн точно и проникновенно рассказывает историю того удивительного лета незадолго до Второй мировой войны, когда цвет немецкой творческой интеллигенции празднует жизнь (у большинства из них она скоро оборвется), как это могут делать только полностью отчаявшиеся люди.
