Story0
Daniel Spitzer gilt heute als einer der bedeutendsten Satiriker und Humanisten Wiens. Seine Erzählungen sind humoristisch und apokryphisch, ein echter Genuss. 6. Januar 1877 – Die Woche hat sehr melodisch mit einer neuen Operette von Johann Strauß begonnen, ich war seit einigen Jahren nicht im Karl-Theater und ich kenne daher den jetzigen Direktor der Hofoper Herrn Jauner schon lange nicht, da sich unsere Unbekanntschaft noch vom Karl-Theater herdatiert, wo er früher ein ziemlich beliebter Schauspieler und später ein sehr glücklicher Direktor gewesen sein soll.

Story0
"Коллекция заблуждений" это книга о ярких личностях, оставивших свой неповторимый след в мировой истории. Ещё при жизни на них были навешены ярлыки: "ангел" или "злодей", "хороший" или "плохой", "праведник" или "грешник". Но действительно ли всё было так однозначно? Конечно, нет! В первую очередь, это книга о людях с тяжёлой, а порой и трагической судьбой; о тех, чей истинный облик только начинает пробиваться сквозь многолетнюю ложь; о тех, кому понадобились годы, а порой и века, чтобы предстать перед потомством в истинном свете.

In 1960, when the legendary icebreaker Magga Dan set sail for Antarctica, it contained a secret. Hiding on board was Nel Law, wife of expedition leader Phillip Law. She would make history by becoming the first Australian woman to set foot on the icy continent, but it was her art that would change everything. Though a talented artist, Nel has always been defined by her role as ‘the explorer's wife', but in the clear expanse of the Southern Ocean, her true self is finally allowed to emerge. Despite misogyny from the all-male crew and resentment from her husband, Nel's art begins to flourish.

1888 zieht die Niederländerin Johanna Bonger nach Paris. Sie saugt das dortige Savoir Vivre auf und fällt durch ihren scharfen Verstand und ihr Kunstverständnis auf. Als sie den Galeristen Theo van Gogh heiratet, ist sie aus der pulsierenden Pariser Bohème nicht mehr wegzudenken. Gemeinsam mit Theos jüngerem Bruder, dem hochtalentierten, aber mittellosen Maler Vincent van Gogh, bilden die drei ein intellektuelles Gespann. Doch dann stirbt Vincent, und sein nahezu unbekanntes Werk droht in der Versenkung zu verschwinden. Das kann und wird Johanna auf keinen Fall zulassen.

In 1940, art-world icon Georgia O'Keeffe bought a house in a mountain-rimmed New Mexico desert, planning to live there for six months every year. To manage her remote household while she paints, O'Keeffe invited Maria Chabot—a young and naïve would-be writer—to join her. Their tempestuous relationship endured throughout the chaotic years of WW2, the death of Georgia's domineering, philandering husband (Alfred Stieglitz), and Maria's design and building of a remarkable adobe house and studio for the artist in the native village of Abiquiu—a generous gift from an exceptional friend.

A woman approaching the ‘invisible years’ of middle age abandons her failing writing career to retrain as a chiropodist in the East Berlin suburb of Marzahn, once the GDR’s largest prefabricated housing estate. From her intimate vantage point at the foot of the clinic chair, she observes her clients and co-workers, listening to their stories with empathy and curiosity. Part memoir, part collective history, Katja Oskamp’s love letter to the inhabitants of Marzahn is a tender reflection on life’s progression and our ability to forge connections in the unlikeliest of places.

Есть вещи, перед которыми бессильна даже абсолютная власть. «Король-солнце» волен распоряжаться чужой жизнью, но его собственная неумолимо утекает в прошлое. Бессмертие — вот чего испокон веков жаждали владыки, и Людовик XIV не стал исключением. В надежде обрести власть над самой смертью он отправляет ученого-священника, отца де ла Круа, в экспедицию за легендарными морскими созданиями, чья плоть, согласно преданиям, дарует вечную жизнь. И вот наконец долгожданный корабль возвращается с удивительной пленницей. Неизвестно, способно ли это загадочное существо даровать королю победу над смертью, но судьбы многих людей оно изменит безвозвратно.

Elizabeth von Arnim, who is best known for her later novel The Enchanted April, married a Prussian aristocrat and, with their five children, lived in Nassenheide, Pomerania. Elizabeth and Her German Garden is a semi-autobiographical novel about the joy that the protagonist finds in the delights of her Pomeranian garden, which provides relief from the stifling environment of her household. The novel was originally published anonymously because von Arnim feared that her husband, whom she satirised in the book, would disapprove.

"Den sorte skole" er fjerde bind af Marcel Pagnols (1895-1974) barndomserindringer fra Provence. Denne gang er det ikke den ubekymrede ferietilværelse i bjergene, der fortælles om, men livet i latinskolen i Marseille, hvor Marcel til forældrenes stolthed har konkurreret sig til en friplads. Pagnol fortæller muntert om lærerne med alle deres særheder og om skoledrengene og deres ballader. Om spisesalen, hvis vægge er plettet af linsegrød, som generationer af elever har kastet derop i lede over denne alt for hyppige frokostret, og om læsestuen, hvor den vagthavende må holde jernhård disciplin for at bevare roen blandt de livlige drenge.
