La presencia de diversos personajes, como una abuela furibunda y su hermana "libertina", salpica de humor, pero también de fragilidad, las páginas de esta obra que se borda entre el sueño y la vigilia. León de Lidia es un libro inclasificable con historias autónomas, un cuaderno de imágenes y dibujos, una colección de retratos familiares o imaginarios y, sobre todo, una conmovedora novela fragmentaria en la que Myriam Moscona asume las marcas de su singularidad estética. Con una prosa decantada que abreva de su herencia mexicana, búlgara y sefardí...

Frühjahr 1958: Ingeborg Bachmann ist gefeierte Lyrikerin, Preisträgerin der Gruppe 47 und "Coverstar" des Spiegel. Nun wird ihr Hörspiel "Der gute Gott von Manhattan" gesendet. Max Frisch, in dieser Zeit mit Inszenierungen von "Biedermann und die Brandstifter" beschäftigt, schreibt der jungen Dichterin, wie begeistert er von dem Hörspiel und wie wichtig der Blickwinkel der Frau, die Beleuchtung der "anderen Seite" sei.

Born in Edinburgh, Naomi Mitchison spent most of the Second World War in the fishing village of Carradale on Kintyre, her home until her death aged 101. Her life was crowded with incident, and her attitudes to events predictably forceful, original and honest. Throughout the war she kept a diary at the request of the research organisation Mass Observation, in which she recorded both the momentous events of the time, and also how one family and their friends lived, what they hoped for and what actually happened. Her diaries developed far beyond the confines of a social document.

In the summer of 1956, Jack Kerouac hitchhiked from Mill Valley, California, to the North Cascades to spend two months serving as a fire lookout for the US Forest Service.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 – 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen in den Jahren 1930 + 1931. Seine Beobachtungen sind sehr genau und zeugen von der Bildung eines aufgeklärten Europäers. Besonders elegant sind die etwas schmunzelnden manchmal aber auch etwas bitter klingenden voranschreitenden Kommentare. Ein Rezensent drückte es sehr treffend aus: "Ein wunderbarer Zeitzeuge, klug und aufmerksam". 30/31 sind die Jahre des Aufstiegs der Nazis und deren Kriege mit den liberaleren Kräften.

Dacia Maraini che è stata una delle amiche più vicine a Pier Paolo Pasolini, in queste pagine intesse un dialogo intimo e sincero capace di prolungare e ravvivare un affetto profondo, nutrito di stima, esperienze artistiche e cinematografiche, idee e viaggi.

Una voce necessaria per capire oggi chi è stato davvero uno degli uomini che hanno fatto la storia della cultura del Novecento.

This is the gripping, urgent and moving diary of young Ukrainian refugee Yeva Skalietska. It follows twelve days in Ukraine that changed 12-year-old Yeva's life forever. She was woken in the early hours to the terrifying sounds of shelling. Russia had invaded Ukraine, and her beloved Kharkiv home was no longer the safe haven it should have been.

UG Krishnamurti has been called the ‘anti-guru’, the ‘raging sage’ and the ‘thinker who shuns thought’. UG does not give lectures, has no organizations, does not write books, holds no gatherings and peddles no mantras. Yet he is the most talked-about thinker in India. This biography, that topped best-seller lists for nine months after it was first published, uravels the man who talks of enlightenment as a neurobiological state of being, utterly free of religious, psychological or mystical implications.

For almost fifty years Michael Harding has been crafting words in a bid to express himself and explore truths about the human condition. But even still he found himself unable to say certain things he really wanted to. Then, while in recovery from surgery, he travelled to a cottage on the Atlantic coast and thought again about life and the people who had profoundly affected him; mentors, lovers and old friends. There at the ocean he wrote letters, with an intimacy not previously risked. Letters that were never posted, but that appear now in this audiobook.

This collection of letters reveals John le Carré—the man, the writer and his world—for the first time and most intimately.

Fans of memoirs at large will delight in the intimate experience of Rickman detailing the extraordinary and the ordinary in a way that is 'anecdotal, indiscreet, witty, gossipy and utterly candid'.

This extraordinary collection of correspondence by Paul Bowles spans eight decades and provides an evolving portrait of an artist renowned for his privacy. From his earliest extant letter, written at the age of four, to his precocious effusions to Aaron Copeland and to Gertrude Stein; from his meditations on mescaline as relayed to Ned Rorem, to his intensely moving letters to Jane Bowles during her illness, In Touch fills in the lacunae left by previous biographers and offers a rare look at the many aspects of Bowles's brilliant career.

"Walle! Walle manche Strecke, dass, zum Zwecke, Wasser fließe...."; wer kennt sie nicht, diese Verse aus dem "Zauberlehrling". Ganz sicher hätte sie Goethe nie geschrieben, wäre der Dichter nicht in regelmäßige Korrespondenz mit Schiller getreten, der ihn anspornte, für seine Zeitschriften eine Fülle von Lyrik und Prosa beizusteuern. Und was für den "Zauberlehrling" gilt, gilt für so viele weitere literarische Glanzpunkte in Goethes' wie auch in Schillers' Werk.
