Naudé S: Fathers and Fugitives / B

Fathers and Fugitives

'Enrique Vila-Matas zündet [...] ein literarisches Feuerwerk, das in unzähligen geistreich-witzigen intertextuellen Fäden auf uns LeserInnen herabregnet.' - Thomas Plaul, Lesart

Nach dem Tod des Vaters kümmert sich Simon Schneider Reus um das verfallene Elternhaus in Cadaqués und um seine literarische Tätigkeit: Er beliefert Autoren mit literarischen Zitaten. Einer dieser Schriftsteller ist sein Bruder Rainer, der 20 Jahre zuvor nach New York ausgewandert, dort mit der Publikation seiner Romane zu einem der größten Stars der Literaturszene geworden ist und eine Art pynchoneske Existenz lebt. Es gibt keine Fotos von ihm, niemand weiß, wo er wohnt, zu seinem Werk äußert er sich, wenn überhaupt, nur schriftlich.
Auf der Suche nach Inspiration unternimmt Simon an einem Oktoberwochenende 2017, als die katalanischen Unabhängigkeitsbestrebungen ihren Höhepunkt erreichen, einen Spaziergang. Auf diesem sinnt er nicht nur seinem Leben und seinem Beruf nach, sondern muss sich auch mit der Nachricht seines Bruders auseinandersetzen, dass dieser auf dem Weg nach Barcelona sei und ihn unbedingt sehen müsse. Bei diesem Treffen prallen nicht nur zwei gegensätzliche Charaktere aufeinander, sondern auch zwei gegensätzliche Ansichten, wie es um die Originalität in der Literatur bestellt ist. Mit stilistischer Eleganz und feinem Humor lotet Vila-Matas in diesem Roman die Fragen nach Originalität sowie nach dem Verhältnis von Realität und Fiktion in der Literatur aus.

Dieser sinnlose Nebel

Flannery O'Connor on Writing

USA Today Bestselling author Rebecca Thorne delights in a brand new cozy sci-fi romance series for fans of Martha Wells. This beautiful trade paper edition features French flaps with exquisite original art on the inside front and back cover! Torian Razner finally bought a starship, and contrary to Amelia's assessment, it was not "a meteoric sign of stupidity." Sure, the alien starship may have been abandoned for a century, and it may be covered in moss now... but it's Torian's ticket to freedom, regardless of what her ex... ah, captain... said. Except Torian's first flight reveals a surprise passenger: the moss is actually an organic computer with a snarky attitude and serious abandonment issues. The target of its loathing? The immortal alien who built it (and then parked the starship, with Moss inside, and forgot about it). The same alien who just found Torian and accused her of "stealing" the ship. It's entirely possible that Amelia was right about this meteoric stupidity.

Moss'd in Space

35 Jahre DDR treffen auf 35 Jahre "Westen": Mit 112 DM, einem Leitzordner und großen Erwartungen startet Bollfeger 1987 ins Abenteuer jenseits des Eisernen Vorhangs - und muss viele Vorurteile überraschend korrigieren.

Johannes Bollfeger nimmt sich das Leben (und noch ein bisschen mehr)

'El día en que lo iban a matar, Santiago Nasar se levantó a las 5.30 de la mañana para esperar el buque en que llegaba el obispo.' Acaso sea Crónica de una muerte anunciada la obra más 'realista' de Gabriel García Márquez, pues se basa en un hecho histórico acontecido en la tierra natal del escritor. Cuando empieza la novela, ya se sabe que los hermanos Vicario van a matar a Santiago Nasar -de hecho, ya le han matado- para vengar el honor ultrajado de su hermana µngela, pero el relato termina precisamente en el momento en que Santiago Nasar muere. El tiempo cíclico, tan utilizado por García Márquez en sus obras, reaparece aquí minuciosamente descompuesto en cada uno de sus momentos, reconstruido prolija y exactamente por el narrador, que va dando cuenta de lo que sucedió mucho tiempo atrás, que avanza y retrocede en su relato y hasta llega mucho tiempo después para contar el destino de los supervivientes. La acción es, a un tiempo, colectiva y personal, clara y ambigua, y atrapa al lector desde un principio, aunque este conozca el desenlace de la trama. La dialéctica entre mito y realidad se ve potenciada aquí, una vez más, por una prosa tan cargada de fascinación que la eleva hasta las fronteras de la leyenda. Julio Cortázar dijo... 'Un genio.'

Bei Doris Gercke, Grande Dame des politischen Kriminalromans, waren Fiktion und Realität eng miteinander verschlungen. Die Arbeit an Texten hat sie so sehr geliebt wie das Lesen und hätte gern noch mehr geschrieben, wir gern mehr verlegt, doch zuletzt fehlte ihr die Zeit. Ihre verbliebenen paar Texte gab sie uns kurz vor dem Tod: ein Hefter, teils handschriftlich, betitelt mit den Worten Von den Bewohnern der Städte. Es sind kurze Szenen, einige Prosagedichte, auch drei Geschichten dabei. Ihr finsterer Realismus, nüchtern und unbotmäßig, nie humor- oder zahnlos, schimmert in allen Formen durch, der vertraute, entschiedene Ton hallt nach.

Von den Bewohnern der Städte

"In one wide-ranging volume, Lambert and the country reporters demonstrate that law can not only keep up with technological change, but can in fact stay well ahead by anticipating upcoming questions. This comprehensive comparative reference will be invaluable for lawyers and students." (Professor Joshua Fairfield. Washington and Lee University School of Law, Review of a previous edition) Bringing together a global team of authors, the International Handbook of Social Media Laws covers the law relating to social media across 34 countries in total. From influential social media defamation cases in Australia, to tweeting from court, and regulations enforced by the UK's Online Safety Act 2023, this book clearly articulates the main legal issues and developments across various legal jurisdictions, to ensure a company's social media presence is fully compliant with the law of each country. The third edition has been fully updated to incorporate new criminal and civil case law, and covers topics including: - Online abuse, online bullying and cyberbullying laws - Laws or rules specific to children and social media - Bans or restrictions on the use of, or access to, the internet or social media, including the influential TikTok, Inc. v. Garland case in the US - Use of social media as evidence in courts - Hacking and data breach laws. Contributors to the volume each provide coverage of their own country, ensuring the volume is both authoritative and practical. Countries represented include: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Senegal, Serbia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, United States and Uruguay.

International Handbook of Social Media Laws

After years spent outrunning her past, Cecília reexamines the case of a close family friend killed by a colleague and rival: her father. In 1988, shortly after Brazil reestablishes democratic rule, a state congressman is shot and killed in Porto Alegre. The main suspect: a close friend and colleague in congress, Representative Raul Matzenbacher. Many years later, Cecília Matzenbacher, his daughter, migrates from Southern Brazil to California, where she finds work as a taxidermist. Her temperament is ideally suited to this type of restoration and the careful reconstruction of a world frozen in time. But as Cecília confronts her own history and the memories of the investigation surrounding her father, her knack for composition frays. When news arrives that Raul has suffered a stroke and Cecília's chances to see him again may be limited, her past can no longer stay put, posed like a specimen behind glass. Her story emerges, the past stalking her present, threatening to derail the life she's made for herself in the United States. In sleek, arresting prose imbued with the suspense-filled edge of a true-crime thriller, Diorama cements Carol Bensimon's status as one of the most dynamic voices in contemporary Brazilian literature and demonstrates her narrative gifts at their apex. Fusing police procedural, coming-of-age story, and family drama, Diorama is a moving mystery about what and how we remember, a novel that endangers our notions of what is or isn't still alive inside all of us.

Diorama

'As gripping as Mark's greatest races' - Zoe Ball 'Incredibly brave and uplifting' - Rebecca Adlington The moving story of one of Britain's best-loved sportsmen, and his thirty-year coming out journey WITH A FOREWORD BY CLARE BALDING As a five-time Olympian, six-time World Champion and eight-time World Record holder, if anyone was going to be openly gay at the height of their sporting career it should have been swimmer Mark Foster - a confident, laid-back guy who doesn't care what anyone thinks. So why did it take him half a lifetime to come out? From a Southend Jack-the-lad expelled from one of the most prestigious schools in the country to becoming the fastest man through water on the planet and a television favourite, Mark's journey is extraordinary. With humour and honesty, he takes readers through his unprecedented 20-year career in the pool and shows how he hid his sexuality for so long - and convinced himself he was happy doing so. Alongside his sporting achievements, Mark recounts his glittering appearance on Strictly Come Dancing, his growing broadcasting career and the other-worldliness of being an Olympian in the public eye. But his experience makes us stop and reassess where we really are in terms of society's approach to homosexuality and diversity in sport. Inspiring and moving, My Double Life is the tale of one man's pursuit of sporting prowess and finding the freedom to live his truth.

My Double Life

AN INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER! DELUXE EDITION-a gorgeous hardcover edition featuring sprayed edges, a case stamp, and designed endpapers! Both epic and intimate, These Immortal Truths is an enchanting and romantic historical fantasy that explores not only what it means to live forever, but what it means to truly live at all. "Did I not tell you, Anna? Death will not come for you." Anna is used to hunger and hardship. Ever since the pale shadows on her skin were mistaken for leprosy, she has lived alone in exile, each day focused only on survival. Then a single act of kindness towards a beautiful stranger changes her life forever. Suddenly, neither time nor harm can touch her, and Anna strives to embrace a life with boundless potential, one that isn't only about survival. But as decades and centuries pass, she is continually forced to abandon each new life before it has the chance to feel like home. The only constant in her eternal existence is Khiran-the shapeshifting god who gave her immortality. No matter the years or distance, he always finds her when she most needs him. But there is more to immortality than Anna knows, and as she travels the ages, she will discover the beauty-and cost-of a life without end.

These Immortal Truths

Palgrave Insights into Apocalypse Economics

This book reassesses classic Marxist theories of finance capital and uneven development in the context of the present intensified process of financialization and the accentuation of combined and accelerating uneven development. In particular, the work of Hilferding and Luxemburg is discussed and re-framed in light of both the contributions of Marx and more recent engagements by David Harvey and Neil Smith. The book explores the case of South Africa in particular in light of the combination of a rapidly financializing yet crisis-ridden South African political economy on the one hand and intensifying social inequality and political conflict on the other.&nbsp;It explores a series of strategies and possibilities that might open up trajectories for change and transformation with particular attention paid to the promises and constraints of the de-growth movement and intersectional class struggle, which will appeal to political economists, researchers, and students alongside those studying South Africa specifically.

Extreme Uneven Development

"An astonishing debut as mesmerizing as it is unnerving." --Joyce Carol Oates A day-in-the-life debut novel about a fading socialite on the hunt for someone to kill her before her next SoulCycle class. "A tale of suspense, a statement, a cry for help, and a delicious tour-de-force." --Nell Zink New York City, 2014. Agnes Maurer seeks a willing murderer and wonders what she should wear. Candidates include: an icy magazine editor with a special cutlery set; an eccentric designer from her past; and Agnes's cruel novelist boyfriend. As she Ubers from Upper East Side shopping to Craigslist gun deals, Agnes' desperation becomes an exhibition, a swan song of millennial sexuality as internalized abuse and consummate style, with the knob righty-tightened all the way. Newton's prose is disturbingly fun, relentless, shattering. A crafted study of existential despair that culminates in a worthy, intense denouement.
