Aujourd'hui, à la retraite, c'est plus calme : les défaillances du corps, les anxiétés de l'âme, la peur de perdre ses vieux amis qui forment une bande de joyeux octogénaires. Une autre vie commence. Avec le plaisir de pouvoir enfin prendre son temps et le perdre.

In the 1990s, Megan Margulies' Upper West Side neighborhood was marked by addicts shooting up in subway stations, frequent burglaries, and the "Wild Man of 96th Street", who set fires under cars and heaved rocks through stained glass church windows. The world inside her parents' tiny one-bedroom apartment was hardly a respite, with a family of five - including some loud personalities - eventually occupying the 550-square-foot space.

Marcel Reich-Ranicki hat das literarische Leben in Deutschland geprägt wie wenige andere: Als Leiter der Literaturredaktion der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung war er der erfolgreichste, aber auch umstrittenste Literaturkritiker seiner Zeit. Mit dem "Literarischen Quartett" wurde das Fernsehen zur machtvollen Bühne seiner Kritik. Was er lobte, wurde gelesen, gefürchtet waren seine Verrisse. In diesem Hörbuch erleben wir ihn in seinen eigenen Worten.

Nachdem Erich Kästner 1933 von den Nazis als Autor verboten worden war, entschloss er sich, ein geheimes Tagebuch zu führen.

Julie Welch was the first ever female football reporter. To achieve this role at the Observer, she had to battle the National Union of Journalists nearly calling a strike when she dared to write an article as a mere secretary; an entire room of men falling silent to listen to her give her first football report over the phone, before pronouncing it passable; and many other battles in-between.

The Unexpected Joy of the Ordinary theorises that the solution is rediscovering the joy in the ordinary that we so often now forget to feel. Because we now expect the pleasure of a croissant, a hot shower, a yoga class, someone delivering our shopping to our door, we no longer feel its buzz. The joy of it whips through us like a bullet train, without pause. Catherine Gray was a grandmaster in the art of eye-rolling the ordinary and skilled in everlasting reaching. Until the black dog of depression forced her to rethink everything.

Ihre "Zwangsehe", wie Günter Grass sie einmal nannte, wurde offiziell am 1. Januar 1960 geschlossen: An diesem Tag besprach der Kritiker Marcel Reich- Ranicki "Die Blechtrommel" des gerade 32-jährigen Autors. Er verriss den Roman. Und so begann das wechselhafte Verhältnis von "MRR" und "GG". Ein halbes Jahrhundert der Auseinandersetzungen, zahlreiche Romane und Verrisse, Liebeserklärungen und Wut folgten.
