Story0
Válečný román uchvacující další a další generace čtenářů. Velká válka zasáhla nejen Evropu, ale i Ameriku. Řada amerických dobrovolníků spěchala na evropská bojiště, mezi nimi i Ernest Hemingway. Své zážitky z italské fronty popsal v románu "Sbohem, armádo!" z roku 1929. Zachytil v něm příběh milostného vzplanutí amerického poručíka Frederika k anglické ošetřovatelce Catherine a současně rozpad dříve stabilních jistot. Více než samotný obraz války Hemingwaye zajímá osud konkrétního člověka, to, jak se mění v neznámých ohrožujících podmínkách a zda je schopen opravdové lásky.

Marian Elliot Adams, an outspoken advocate for sensible undergarments for women, sweeps onto the Chautauqua stage under a brown canvas tent on a sweltering August night in 1917, and shocks the gathered town of Emporia with her speech: How can women compete with men in the work place and in life if they are confined by their undergarments? The crowd is further appalled when Marian falls off the stage and sprains her ankle, and is forced to remain among them for a week. As the week passes, she throws everything into turmoil.

In his unforgettable first novel, Hemingway artfully illuminates the plight of the Lost Generation, weaving a poignant tale of love and loss in the aftermath of World War I. The story follows two expatriates living in Paris in the 1920s: Jake Barnes, an American war veteran and journalist, and Lady Brett Ashley, an independent Englishwoman exploring the opportunities afforded by a new era of liberated women and sexual freedom. Impotent due to an injury suffered during the war, Jake must navigate his hopeless love for Brett in a changed world of waning morality.

Helene, Tiffy, Ronda und Elsa kämpfen um ihre Stimme, ihre Freiheit – und um das Überleben in einer Zeit, in der Mut gefährlich ist. Ihr Widerstand wächst im Verborgenen – gegen Armut, Gewalt und die leisen Zwänge des Alltags. Zwischen politischem Aufbruch, Liebe und Verrat entsteht eine Gemeinschaft, die stärker ist als jede Macht, die sie zu brechen versucht.
