"Behunytam szemem, hőséget éreztem, szédülést. Ez a szédülés pillanatokig tartott. Kezem védekezően nyújtottam ki" most megkérdi - gondoltam -, Istenem, most megkérdi. Mit? Talán, hogy miért történt az egész? Talán, hogy én voltam-e a gyáva? Nem, most felelni kell! "Mélyen lélegeztem, s ránéztem, készen a válaszra."

Story1
Trotz ist in seiner reinen Essenz: der Moment des Aufbäumens. Er kann ganze Gesellschaften in den Fortschritt katapultieren. Er kann aber auch: bremsen. Das gilt nicht nur für uns als Gemeinschaft, sondern auch für jeden Einzelnen. Wer ist nicht schon einmal trotzig über sich hinausgewachsen? Und wer wurde nicht auch einmal vom Trotz daran gehindert, etwas zu erreichen? Ronja von Rönne kennt den Trotz, etwas besser sogar, als ihr lieb ist. In diesem persönlichen Essay zeigt sie, wann der Trotz sie am Leben gehalten hat.

Wie werden Liebe und Tod zur Erzählung, wenn auf das Leben kein Verlass ist. Julia wird in Ostberlin geboren. Sie ist acht, als ihre Mutter sie und die Schwestern in den Westen, erst ins Notaufnahmelager Marienfelde und dann nach Schleswig-Holstein mitnimmt. In dem chaotischen Bauernhaus kann die Dreizehnjährige nicht länger bleiben und zieht aus, nach Westberlin. Neben der Sozialhilfe verdient die Schülerin Geld mit Putzen, sie lernt ihren Vater kennen und verliert ihn unmittelbar, macht ihr Abitur und begegnet Stephan, ihrer großen Liebe. Wenn sie sich erinnert, ist es Gegenwart.

This is the story of the Honourable Guinevere Dilberne, daughter of Arnold, 11th Earl of Dilberne, Sandra Sinclair and Rita Boniface. Yes, that's right. Three parents. Or, in fact, four, if you wish to count Sandra's husband Clive. Though he played little part in it. It all begins with a loving couple, their interfering neighbour, a test tube and a turkey baster. These days, anything can happen....

Esilarante e stranamente tenero, l’esperimento di “ibernazione” narcotica di una giovane donna, aiutata e incoraggiata da una delle peggiori psichiatre della storia. New York, all’alba del nuovo millennio. La protagonista gode di molti privilegi, almeno in apparenza. È giovane, magra, carina, da poco laureata alla Columbia e vive, grazie a un’eredità, in un appartamento nell’Upper East Side di Manhattan. Ma c’è qualcosa che le manca, c’è un vuoto nella sua vita che non è semplicemente legato alla prematura perdita dei genitori o al modo in cui la tratta il fidanzato che lavora a Wall Street.

Der Weltbesteller von Fredrik Backman als ungekürzte Lesung. Ove ist 59. Er fährt Saab. Und wir alle kennen jemanden wie ihn: den grummeligen Nachbarn von nebenan, der kontrolliert, ob der Müll richtig getrennt ist, und heimlich die Falschparker aufschreibt. Doch niemand wird als grummeliger alter Nachbar geboren, und einst war auch Ove glücklich. Bis das mit seiner Frau passierte, und dann das mit der Arbeit. Jetzt macht nichts mehr wirklich Sinn. Noch einmal richtig aufräumen, dann ist Ove bereit, für immer zu gehen.

Ein Wesen, das die Menschen verzaubert: ein kleiner rosaroter Elefant, der in der Dunkelheit leuchtet. Plötzlich ist er da, in der Höhle des Obdachlosen Schoch. Wie das seltsame Geschöpf entstanden ist und woher es kommt, weiß nur einer: der Genforscher Roux. Er möchte eine weltweite Sensation daraus machen. Allerdings wurde es ihm entwendet. Denn es gibt auch Leute, die es beschützen wollen, etwa der burmesische Elefantenflüsterer Kaung.

Autor nás zavádí do půvabné polabské krajiny kolem chatové osady v Kersku, kde od poloviny šedesátých let trávil svůj volný čas. Většina literárních postav má svůj reálný předobraz v lidech z autorova prostředí a máme tak jedinečnou možnost seznámit se s jejich zvláštními zálibami i osudy. V textu se snoubí poetično s realistickým popisem, stylizovaná nadsázka s humornou drobnokresbou, události veselé s událostmi smutnými.
