Story2
No one could have predicted even two years ago that an African American would take the oath of office as president of the United States in January of 2009. For many, the occasion marks the climax to the civil rights movement and the fulfillment of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s dream that Americans could be judged on the content of their character and not the color of their skin. This collection, with about 400 letters from Americans of all walks of life, is being created to stand as a symbol of this exciting moment in history.

Story2
Drags, fags and trans-women were attracted to the Big Apple because they were able to find work as impersonators in a small number of Lower East Side clubs. Decades before Stonewall, they occupied the margins of society, determined to live as they pleased, despite of the attentions of the police. Sometimes reduced to stealing to get their costumes, these girls were unstoppable, fearless and fabulous. When a cache of their letters were discovered, these individuals were given a voice where they had traditionally been silenced.

Questo audiolibro è la prima tappa di un pellegrinaggio di pace. Un pellegrinaggio compiuto da un uomo che, nel corso della sua vita, è stato un cronista coinvolto in prima persona nella realtà che descriveva; un giornalista capace d'individuare per istinto i segni che un determinato avvenimento lascia sul territorio sconfinato della Storia; un narratore con una voce unica, spesso fuori del coro, sempre autentica e piena di comprensione.

H.C. Andersen og Søren Kierkegaard rejser sammen ned gennem Europa sidst i 1849 med Rom som endemål. Undervejs udveksler det umage par tanker om kærligheden, angsten, glæden, selvet, døden og livet derefter, men berører også deres kunstneriske virksomhed og den udeblevne anerkendelse, pressens tiltagende dominans og den vildtvoksende naturvidenskab, folkestyrets fremmarch og kristendommens krise.

Libertin, épicurien, esthète et séducteur incorrigible, Giacomo Casanova incarne le 18e siècle. Grâce à ses mémoires où il consigne ses moindres faits et gestes, de 1725 à 1798, nous pénétrons dans l'intime du 18e, des menus, des lieux, des pensées, des goûts de l'époque. Rédigées en français, ses mémoires, dont le manuscrit est accessible sur le site de la B.N.F., expriment son amour, immense, des femmes et de la vie, avec une précision parfois croustillante et une verve toujours savoureuse.

Das Ur-Wikileaks aus ersten Händen - ebenso gefürchtet, und noch fünfzig Jahre nach dem Tod der "Menschensammler" verboten und verfolgt. Der Name Goncourt ist den meisten Literaturliebhabern nur noch im Zusammenhang mit dem alljährlich vergebenen Prix Goncourt bekannt, der höchsten Auszeichnung, die in Frankreich ein neues literarisches Werk erreichen kann. Doch die Brüder waren nicht nur Gründer der Académie Goncourt, sie nahmen auch sehr freizügig am kulturellen und gesellschaftlichen Leben im pulsierenden Paris teil.

Hannah Arendt und Mary McCarthy lernen sich 1945 in einer Bar in Manhattan kennen, werden Freundinnen und schreiben sich über fünfundzwanzig Jahre lang Briefe. Es sind Dokumente eines unverbrüchlichen Vertrauens, zugleich ein beispiellos offener Dialog zweier intelligenter Frauen, die beherzt und unvoreingenommen über alles sprachen, was sie bewegte: Politik, Moral, ihre Bücher, ihre Männer. Hier begegnen sich Judentum und Katholizismus, europäische Bildung und politische Kultur Amerikas, deutsche Universitätstradition und Upper-Class-College-Erziehung.

The Uncommercial Traveller is a collection of literary sketches and reminiscences written by Charles Dickens, published in 1860-1861. In 1859 Dickens founded a new journal called All the Year Round, and the "Uncommercial Traveller" articles would be among his main contributions. He seems to have chosen the title and persona of the Uncommercial Traveller as a result of a speech he gave on 22 December 1859 to the Commercial Travellers' School London in his role as honorary chairman and treasurer.

Essayist. Preservationist. Mountain man. Inventor. John Muir may be California’s best-known icon. A literary naturalist and founder of the Sierra Club and Yosemite National Park, Muir left his legacy on the landscape and on paper. But the celebrity of John Muir does not tell the whole story. In Essential Muir, for the first time, Muir's selected writings include those that show his ecological vision without ignoring his racism, providing a more complete portrait of the man.

Funny, poignant and reflective, The Weight of a Cherry Blossom is a fable of rootlessness and belonging in the modern world. It is equal parts a story of urban loneliness and self-discovery and of the healing powers of kinship and love. Revisiting the awkwardness of adolescence and the chaos of growing up, it looks the foibles of adulthood irreverently in the eye.
