Carove M: WISHES AND GOALS

WISHES AND GOALS

Short stories and poetry

A middle-grade Australian poetry collection

If I Could Eat the Stars

Musaach, Enkel des Königsgotts und Fürst des Reichs, steht im Zentrum dieses vielschichtigen Romans, dessen Handlung sich in großem Panorama vom sagenhaften Nebelland im Norden bis zum Reich der südlichen Königin, vom Land zwischen den Schenkelflüssen im Osten bis in den Horizont der untergehenden Sonne im Westen erstreckt. Das Werk greift dabei auf einzelne Aspekte der biblisch-mythischen Moses-Geschichte zurück, um Urgründe des Menschen zu beleuchten. Vor allem aber ist der Roman prallvoll mit Figuren, Handlungen und Geschichten, farbig und erfindungsreich ... und ein Genuss als ungewöhnlich schöpferisches Sprachkunstwerk.

Wüsten.Wege - Band I

'A writer to keep a close eye on' The New York Times 'Quiet and beautifully written, Discipline plays masterfully' Buzz Magazine When two people fall apart, who gets to tell their story? Christine is a young writer touring her debut novel - a thinly disguised tale of the affair she had with her professor ten years earlier. He was magnetic, domineering, both the sponsor of her early promise and its destroyer. But he surely forgot her long ago, and the temptation to exorcise her past was overwhelming. Then, between hotel rooms and bookstores, formal dinners and road-trip hook-ups, she receives a series of sly, unsettling emails and finally an invitation to visit the professor's isolated house on an island off the coast of Maine. Against her better judgement, Christine is drawn back into his orbit, risking forever losing control of the narrative she's worked so hard to create. Taut and provocative, Discipline walks the lines between creativity and control, truth and memory, coercion and desire. READER REVIEWS: 'If you enjoyed Outline by Rachel Cusk or Mona by Pola Oloixarac, I think you will really like Discipline' 'The best book I read in 2025' 'Pham's writing completely held me. Each page left me wanting more' 'A provocative and intriguing debut, masterfully executed' 'Discipline is a storm on the horizon, a prismatic and haunting story'

One of the Most Anticipated Debuts of the Year

Discipline

A working women's guide to a successful life You're trying to be all things to all people, juggling work overload with multiple caring responsibilities - but the one person you're not looking after is you.

Jenny Rogers has coached thousands of women through the complexities of midlife, empowering them to play to their strengths, let go of toxic relationships and habits, take responsibility for their own lives and stop worrying about what is beyond their control. Hers is a deceptively simple yet spectacularly effective no-nonsense approach that cuts through the buzzwords and passing trends to changes lives. Jenny has enabled the women she works with to find their unique voice and speak up, to gain that dream job or start their own business, to repair relationships and forge nurturing new ones ... to make their lives their own and show what they can really do. And now she will do that for you, too. For too long it's been all about other people - now it's all about you.

On the Fence

Melissa Jørgenrud Helton's debut collection, A Middle-Aged Woman Rages, captures a life on the brink of fifty. These poems confront parenting grown children, divorce, and a country sliding toward authoritarianism, all while navigating perimenopause and fighting to sustain creativity and healing. Searing and unapologetic, Helton refuses silence. Her poems name what women are taught to swallow and model truth-telling as survival - inviting and emboldening women to speak with power and without permission.

The Monster and Puppet Show!-Elephant & Piggie Like Reading!

Ich begann mein Leben nicht in Geborgenheit - sondern in Angst.

Als in ihrer Heimat der Krieg ausbrach, war Karmen Schulmeister noch ein Kind. Was folgte, waren Flucht, Entbehrung und ein Leben voller Neuanfänge.

Schon früh lernte sie, auf sich selbst gestellt zu sein. Sie kämpfte sich durch Armut, Ablehnung und Unsicherheit - und hielt an einem Versprechen fest: sich ein besseres Leben aufzubauen.

Diese wahre Geschichte zeigt, wie viel ein Mensch ertragen kann - und wie stark man werden kann, wenn man niemals aufgibt.

Meine wahre Geschichte

Aus den Trümmern eines Flüchtlingskindes

WINNER OF THE BOLLINGEN PRIZE COMING SOON AS A MAJOR FILM FROM ACADEMY AWARD-WINNING DIRECTOR CHRISTOPHER NOLAN This beloved, classic translation of The Odyssey by the renowned translator and poet Robert Fitzgerald has sold more than a million copies, and now appears in a gorgeous deluxe edition with a new foreword from Laura Slatkin and an afterword by A. E. Stallings. Robert Fitzgerald's translation of Homer's Odyssey is the best and best-loved modern translation of the greatest of all epic poems. Since 1961, this Odyssey has sold more than two million copies, and has long been the standard translation for generations of students and poets. Picador is delighted to publish a new edition of this classic work with a new cover, an attractive, collectible package, and a new scholarly introduction and afterword that will connect Fitzgerald's Homer to ever more students and general readers. Fitzgerald's supple verse is ideally suited to the story of Odysseus's long journey back to his wife and home after the Trojan War. Homer's tale of love, adventure, food and drink, sensual pleasure, and mortal danger reaches the English-language reader in all its glory. Of the many translations published since World War II, only Fitzgerald's has won admiration as a great poem in English. The noted classicist Laura Slatkin explains the depth of his engagement with the complex and timeless themes of Homer, while the award-winning poet A. E. Stallings expounds on the gift of his lyrical, ageless poetry that has brought Homer and Odysseus to life for millions of readers of every age. This edition also features a map, a glossary of names and places, a list for further reading, and Fitzgerald's postscript.

The Odyssey. The Fitzgerald Translation (Deluxe Edition)

Blumen sind im Laufe der Jahrhunderte zu Metaphern geworden: Rote Rosen stehen für Liebe, weiße Blumen symbolisieren Reinheit und Trauer, gelbe Blüten Freundschaft und Rosa Zärtlichkeit. Gerbera bedeuten Lebensfreude, Chrysanthemen Dankbarkeit und Vergissmeinnicht Treue. Sie sind mehr als nur Blumen - die Erwähnung einer jeden Pflanze öffnet auch ein Spek­trum an Emotionen und Assoziationen. Das vorliegende Buch ist ein literarisches Herbarium. Jeder Text kann als feinfühlige Kartografie innerer und äußerer Naturen verstanden werden. Möglicherweise offenbart es sich als kleine, aber feine Textsammlung, die verschiedene Essenzen menschlicher Erfahrung aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven präsentiert.

“Schlink knows how to tell a gripping yarn . . . [The Granddaughter] is a rewarding and wonderfully readable novel.” —The Guardian“A brilliant dissection of a fragmented nation in which a glimmer of hope relieves a somber but wholly memorable tale.” —Kirkus (starred review)From the bestselling author of The Reader, a striking exploration of the past, told through the story of a German bookseller’s attempt to connect with his radicalized granddaughter.It is only after the sudden death of his wife, Birgit, that Kaspar discovers the price she paid years earlier when she fled East Germany to join him: she had to abandon her baby. Shattered by grief, yet animated by a new hope, Kaspar closes up his bookshop in present day Berlin and sets off to find her lost child in the east.His search leads him to a rural community of neo-Nazis, intent on reclaiming and settling ancestral lands to the East. Among them, Kaspar encounters Svenja, a woman whose eyes, hair, and even voice remind him of Birgit. Beside her is a red-haired, slouching, fifteen-year-old girl. His granddaughter? Their worlds could not be more different— an ideological gulf of mistrust yawns between them— but he is determined to accept her as his own.More than twenty-five years after The Reader, Bernhard Schlink once again offers a masterfully gripping novel that powerfully probes the past’s role in contemporary life, transporting us from the divided Germany of the 1960s to modern day Australia, and asking what unites or separates us.Translated from the German by Charlotte Collins
