Story0
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.

Peculiar weather settles over a bustling Texas sea port, a city made prosperous off the cotton trade and thick with racial inequality. The sky above Galveston, Texas, darkens to the sickly green of a healing bruise, the sea turns black, and the inhabitants of the city have no idea the force of the hammer about to drop on them. On September 8, 1900, a hurricane ripped apart Galveston, Texas, killing nearly 8,000 people and nearly obliterating the town. Lansdale's story brings dimension to many who lost their lives that day, and a few who survived.

In 1483, Edward and Richard of York—Edward, by law, already King of England—were placed, for their protection before Edward's coronation, in the Tower of London by their uncle Richard. Within months the boys disappeared without a trace, and for the next five hundred years the despised Richard III was suspected of their heartless murders.
In To the Tower Born, Robin Maxwell ingeniously imagines what might have happened to the missing princes.

È il 1966, e l'estate pare essersi dimenticata delle Alpi, lasciando al suo posto piogge e temporali che inchiodano escursionisti e amanti delle cime negli alberghi e nei campeggi. L'arrampicatore californiano Gary Hemming - idealista, sfrontato e carismatico - guarda il Monte Bianco e freme: è venuto in Europa sull'onda dell'insaziabile fame di vita che da sempre lo incendia, e invece si ritrova un tetto di nuvole sopra la testa.

For admirers of Tom Rachman's work, this is a return to the formal ingenuity and technique that he exhibited so flamboyantly in his debut. It's set during a crisis in democracy, a society in lockdown linked digitally but convulsed by a social media frenzy, and is told by a little-known, little-read Dutch novelist named Dora Frenhofer, who has decided that her life as an old woman in this post-truth pandemic world has become too much. But like a twenty-first century Scheherazade Dora spins stories to fend off the evil day, conjuring connections from her past to give meaning to the present.

"Nicolas" è il racconto di un amore, lungo vent'anni, tra due uomini; è la visione limpida e travolgente di una malattia terminale; è la storia di una vita intensa, vissuta senza impianti fino all'ultimo giorno. Navigando nella memoria e contemplando i ricordi che a mano a mano riemergono – viaggi, frammenti d’infanzia, libri, fotografie, musiche, case – l'autore risponde all’urgenza di riappropriarsi di un passato ormai sommerso eppure ancora capace di esprimere messaggi di felicità.

A splendid original tale, Alfred Buber is warm, smart, romantic, but his life is as barren as an ice floe, an embarrassing collage of successes and humiliations that add up to...nothing. He lives as if he has landed in a strange country, nowhere he recognizes. Can an-oh-so respectable Boston lawyer, out of options, out of hope, lonely beyond measure, stray way outside the lines and find love? Can he step into the tawdry dark, and back into the wholesome light, and not be affected? Alfred Buber thinks he can. But the line between his two lives is a thin one.

Wie kaum eine Autorin ihrer Zeit hat Susanne Kerckhoff den Verlust der moralischen Integrität der Deutschen, ihre Schuld an den Verbrechen des Nationalsozialismus und die Frage der daraus resultierenden geistigen Neuorientierung zum Mittelpunkt ihres literarischen Schaffens gemacht. Ein bedeutendes Zeugnis dieser Auseinandersetzung ist ihr kurzer, 1948 erschienener halbfiktiver Briefroman "Berliner Briefe". In diesem Buch richtet Helene, eine im zerstörten Berlin lebende Frau, nach Kriegsende dreizehn Briefe an ihren nach Paris emigrierten jüdischen Jugendfreund Hans.
