Zwei Welten, die sich fremder nicht sein könnten: hier América und Cándido, illegale Einwanderer aus Mexiko, dort das Ehepaar Mossbacher – liberale, umwelt- und ernährungsbewußte Angloamerikaner in Los Angeles ... Der Zusammenstoß Cándidos mit Delaney Mossbachers wachsgepflegtem Auto ist ein wortwörtlicher: Delaney sieht seine geschützte Welt zunehmend bedroht: Kojoten dringen in das Grundstück ein und töten die kleinen Hunde, dunkelhäutige, verdächtige Gestalten lungern herum, wo er seine Wanderungen macht.

Story2
Prinkipo Island, Turkey, 2017. In the glow of a late summer morning, family gather for the 100th birthday of the famous artist Sirin Saka. It ought to be a time of fond reminiscence, looking back on a long and fruitful artistic career, on memories spanning almost a century, but also of an era when imperial forces fought over her homeland. But the deep past is something Sirin has spent a lifetime trying to conceal. Her grandchildren, Nur and Fikret, and great grandchild do not know what Sirin is hiding, though they are intimately aware of the secret's psychological consequences.

Sechs Astronauten schweben in einer Raumstation durchs All. Den Planeten Erde umkreisen sie in 90 Minuten, sechzehnmal in 24 Stunden. Die zwei Frauen und vier Männer aus ganz unterschiedlichen Nationen arbeiten, essen und schlafen auf engstem Raum – und doch ist alles losgelöst vom Alltag, Schwerkraft und Zeitempfinden sind außer Kraft gesetzt. Was passiert, wenn man seine Heimat nur aus weiter Ferne durch ein kleines Fenster sieht? Wie verändern sich Denken und Fühlen?

It’s seven years after the events of Sideways. Miles has written a novel that has been made into a wildly successful movie, and the movie has changed his life. Jack, contrarily, is divorced, has a kid, and is on the skids. Phyllis, Miles’ mom, has suffered a stroke that’s left her wheelchair-bound and wasting away in assisted living. She desperately wants to live with her sister in Wisconsin. When Miles gets invited to be master of ceremonies at the International Pinot Festival in Oregon, he hatches a harebrained road trip.

Un padre ha piantato due alberi davanti alla sua casa, uno per ogni figlio. Il primo, un larice, è Luigi, duro e fragile, che in trentasette anni non se n'è mai andato dalla valle. Lui e Betta si sono innamorati facendo il bagno nelle pozze del fiume, tra le betulle bianche: ora non succede piú cosí di frequente, ma aspettano una bambina e nell'aria si sente il profumo di un nuovo inizio. Lui ha appena accettato un lavoro da forestale, lei viene dalla città e legge Karen Blixen. L'altro albero è un abete: Alfredo è il figlio minore, ombroso e resistente al gelo, irrequieto e attaccabrighe.

Qui n'a jamais perdu foi en l'existence ? Qui n'a jamais été épuisé – voire écœuré – au point de douter de la valeur même de la vie ? Lily en est là. Une rupture, beaucoup de désillusions… mais ce n'est pas cette part de son histoire qui nous intéresse. Grâce à Mère-Grand et au Petit Poucet, Lily va découvrir un autre chemin. Loin d'un conte de fées, c'est une renaissance, aux antipodes des faux-semblants et des égoïsmes. Les Heureux Hasards vont la conduire jusqu'à la face cachée du monde tel qu'on ne le montre jamais.

"Mi se întâmplă rar. Din ce în ce mai rar. De regulă, ceea ce văd, ceea ce aud, ceea ce trăiesc mă indispune până la depresie. Şi totuşi, fără motiv aparent, fără iluzii şi fără speranţe utopice, mă trezesc, uneori, cuprins de o nerezonabilă încredere în soarta lumii. S-ar spune, pe scurt, că lumea stă într-o tolerabilă cumpănă. Relele ei nu prevalează semnificativ asupra părţilor ei bune."

Story4
Román "Alchymista" - největší brazilský bestseller všech dob - byl dosud přeložen do 34 jazyků a prodalo se ho na 10 milionů výtisků. Takřka pohádkové vyprávění o cestě španělského pastýře za zakopaným pokladem, vycházející z příběhu o splněném snu ze sbírky Tisíc a jedna noc, je zároveň výzvou k naplnění vlastního osudu i poznáním posvátnosti světa, v němž žijeme. Na cestě za oním dvojím pokladem, plné zkoušek a důležitých setkání, je třeba dbát všech znamení a s neustálou trpělivostí a odvahou (jako alchymista sledující proměnu obyčejného kovu ve zlato) přetvořit samu svou osobnost.
