Mit Berliner Kindheit um 1900 entwirft Benjamin ein poetisches Erinnerungsbuch. In kurzen Prosastücken beschwört er seine Kindheit in Berlin – nicht als lineare Erzählung, sondern als Folge von Momenten, Bildern und Atmosphären. Erinnerung wird hier zu einem Raum, in dem Vergangenheit und Gegenwart ineinander übergehen. Die Denkbilder schließlich versammeln eine Vielzahl kurzer, oft aphoristischer Texte.

Dante kan svømme. Det kan Ari ikke. Dante er veltalende og selvsikker. Ari har det svært med ord og tvivler på sig selv. Dante drømmer sig væk i poesi og kunst. Ari forsvinder i mørke tanker om den bror, der sidder i fængsel. Dante er lys i huden. Ari er meget mørkere. Man skulle tro, at en dreng som Dante ville være den sidste, der kunne bryde de mure ned, som Ari har bygget om sig selv. Men da Ari og Dante mødes, sker der noget.

Demanding that the Kremlin obey its own laws, an improbable band of Soviet citizens held unauthorized public gatherings, petitioned in support of arrested intellectuals, and circulated banned samizdat texts. Against all odds, the dissident movement undermined the Soviet system and unexpectedly hastened its collapse. To the Success of Our Hopeless Cause is a definitive history of a remarkable group of people who helped change the twentieth century.

Viața ta este pe cale să se schimbe radical în bine, iar asta mulțumită noului model de gândire propus și testat de Dan Sullivan și Benjamin Hardy!
