Cea mai cunoscută carte a Oliviei Laing, Orașul solitar este un text radiant despre singurătate, mecanismele care o provoacă și despre cum ne putem doza resursele interioare pentru a-i face față. Apelând la biografiile și creațiile unor artiști precum Edward Hopper, Andy Warhol, Henry Darger sau David Wojnarowicz, Laing documentează o călătorie filozofică în care singurătatea devine insula fiecăruia dintre noi, iar povestirea ne poartă, pagină cu pagină, mai aproape de centru.

Una exitosa periodista que durante muchos años ocultó un gran secreto. El de su familia. Una familia al mismo tiempo profundamente disfuncional y tremendamente viva, vibrante. El padre, Rex, es un hombre carismático y entusiasta, que logra transmitir a sus hijos la pasión por vivir. Les enseña física, geología, les cuenta historias. Pero Rex es alcohólico, y cuando está borracho se convierte en una persona destructiva y poco de fiar. La madre es un espíritu libre, una pintora muy orgullosa de su arte que aborrece la idea de una vida convencional.

Het bijzondere en aangrijpende verhaal over de zoektocht van Mischa Blok naar haar biologische moeder in Zuid-Korea, dat de lezer diep zal raken. Een kindje wordt te vondeling gelegd op een pleintje in Zuid-Korea, met op haar kleding een briefje waar haar naam en haar geboortedatum op staan. Ze wordt gevonden, naar het kindertehuis gebracht en geadopteerd door Nederlandse ouders. Een prachtig verhaal, strik eromheen, klaar. Maar zevenendertig jaar later blijkt dit verhaal niet te kloppen.

Die Mauer ist gerade erst gefallen. Im mecklenburgischen Neustrelitz verlässt der 19-jährige Charly Hübner sein Elternhaus im Streit. Er findet Zuflucht am Theater und in der Literatur, liest wie besessen und landet nahezu unumgänglich bei den Jahrestagen von Uwe Johnson. Ein dicker Wälzer, der trotz der manchmal sperrigen Sprache und verwinkelten Erzählweise einen so noch nie erlebten Sog auf den damaligen Teenager ausübte. Aus dem Teenager von damals ist heute einer der beliebtesten deutschen Schauspieler geworden – während Johnson mehr und mehr in Vergessenheit geraten ist.

În volumul de față, după 16 ani de la prima autobiografie, Live, Delia Budeanu, prezentatoare timp de 28 de ani la Televiziunea Română (1970–1998), izbutește în mod alchimic să preschimbe uneltele malefice ale cenzurii de altădată în instrumente lăuntrice benefice ale controlului de sine, ale rigorii estetice și ale detașării de imediatul trăirilor brute. Această ținere în frâu a visceralului îi conferă Deliei Budeanu o paradoxală eliberare din captivitatea confesiunilor proprii, care, transfigurate, devin la rândul lor rampe de lansare în spiritualitate.

In 1988, a band of University of Wisconsin–Madison undergrads and dropouts began publishing a free weekly newspaper with no editorial stance other than “You Are Dumb.” Just wanting to make a few bucks, they wound up becoming the bedrock of modern satire over the course of twenty years, changing the way we consume both our comedy and our news. The Onion served as a hilarious and brutally perceptive satire of the absurdity and horrors of late twentieth-century American life and grew into a global phenomenon.

Dejó muy claro Gabriel García Márquez que el periodismo siempre fue su principal pasión, la más perdurable y por la que quiso ser recordado: «No quiero que se me recuerde por Cien años de soledad, ni por el premio Nobel, sino por el periódico. [...] Nací periodista y hoy me siento más reportero que nunca. Lo llevo en la sangre, me tira».

Enno Lenze war auf dem Weg nach Butscha, als dieser Ort noch nicht als Synonym für russische Kriegsverbrechen galt. Er berichtet von der Front aus der Ukraine, vom Kampf gegen den IS in der Autonomen Region Kurdistan, von der Herrschaft der Taliban in Afghanistan, von Tränengasangriffen auf Studenten in Hongkong. Waffenmessen in Paris und Dubai sind ebenso sein Thema wie der versuchte Sturm des Bundestags durch Reichsbürger.

'A story of grit and determination from a woman who writes the way she lives - fiercely, with passion and in full colour.' - Michele A'Court 'There are times, admittedly rare, when a book comes along that needs only one word to evaluate it. In the case of Bloody Minded, that word is ""WOW""...

En la década de los ochenta, España vivió una época apasionante: la Transición. Como muestra este libro, los años del mayor intento colectivo de democratización y modernización del país fueron turbulentos, caleidoscópicos, llenos de violencia y de esperanza al mismo tiempo.

Geliefd columnist Aaf Brandt Corstius laat zich inspireren door uitspraken die ze in het dagelijks leven tegenkomt en die haar raken of aan het denken zetten – een perfect cadeauboek.

Zo'n wijs advies is vaak één enkel zinnetje waar je je hele leven wat aan hebt. Katja Schuurman die zegt dat je kunt kiezen tussen ouder worden of doodgaan – dan weet je het wel, als je zit te zeuren over je rimpels.
