Les deux cités de Charles Dickens

Als Rebekka ein Maturatreffen ausschreibt, gerät Bewegung in die Frauen, die sich als Mädchen gekannt hatten. Sie haben naturgemäß individuelle Lebenswege eingeschlagen und so manche von ihnen denkt nun über ihren eigenen Werdegang nach. Erinnerungen tauchen auf, Versäumnisse werden wahrgenommen, Lebensentwürfe verteidigt. Die Frauen sind über das ganze Burgenland verteilt, repräsentieren auch oft den Lebensstil, der von der Region auf sie abfärbt. Das Burgenland-Kroatische und -Ungarische haben genauso Platz in diesem östlichsten Bundesland wie das Hianzische und mundartliche Wendungen. Und gelegentlich hört man auch Romanes, die Sprache der Sinti und Roma, und das Ukrainische, wenn es die Weltlage erfordert. - Das Maturatreffen selbst wird nicht geschildert, aber in den Köpfen der Leser:innen entsteht es wie von selbst.

Klasse Frauen

James Joyce, Viriginia Woolf, Ernest Hemingway, and a multitude of other artistic titans are encountered and ventriloquized in this bitingly funny (and mostly fictitious) memoir by a nearly forgotten literary fantasist. Frederic Prokosch was a fantasist. His first novel, The Asiatics, was a stylish account of a man hitchhiking across an Asia that was more dream than reality. Praised by T. S. Eliot, Thomas Mann, and W. B. Yeats, it was a tremendous success, never to be replicated in Prokosch's long career. In the 1940s, he moved to Europe, away from what he called the "middle-class and fancy dullness" of midcentury American letters, writing novels of a highly romantic kind, playing squash and tennis, collecting butterflies, and printing deluxe limited editions of poems he admired. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 1982, Prokosch returned to the literary limelight with Voices—a self-proclaimed memoir framed by his childhood in Middle America and his old age in the South of France, made of short chapters about his encounters with famous figures, whose every word he seems to recall. Voices, too, is a work of fantasy. But if Prokosch's portraits are not strictly true to life, they come alive as few portraits do. Whether he is playing tennis with Ezra Pound or retrieving Marc Chagall's wallet from the Grand Canal, sharing a beer with Bertolt Brecht or a steam bath with W.H. Auden, Prokosch hypnotizes the reader with his ability to capture these artists' cadences and characters, creating a masterpiece of imaginative memoir.

Voices

Carcosa

Ein Raumschiff strandet auf einem fernen Planeten, buchstäblich am Ende des Universums. Die kleine Gruppe von Frauen und Männern findet sich in einer lebensfeindlichen Einöde wieder und muss versuchen, auch nur die ersten Tage gemeinsam zu überstehen. Als die Männer stattdessen hochfliegende Pläne schmieden, wie diese Welt zu 'kolonisieren' sei, kommt es zur Katastrophe ... 
Mit ihrem erstmals 1976 erschienenen Roman "Wir, die wir sehr bald ..." verfasste Joanna Russ die definitive Antithese zu den Werken ihrer männlichen Kollegen: Hier tragen keine strahlenden Helden die Zivilisation in die Weiten des Weltraums hinaus. Hier stellt sich eine Frau den existenziellen Fragen des Daseins. Bis zur letzten Konsequenz. // Der abschließende Band unserer Russ-Werkausgabe enthält außerdem zwei längere Erzählungen, eine Folge repräsentativer Buchkritiken und einen Essay aus der dritten Schaffensphase der Autorin.

Jenseits der Grenzen

Frank - ein erfahrener Polizeiausbilder - steht völlig unerwartet vor der größten Herausforderung seines Lebens.
Er wird nach Chicago delegiert, wo sich sein Job als extrem zermürbend entwickelt. Ein nach dem "Big Business" strebender Drogendealer, ein eigenartiger Serientäter und ein überfordertes Polizeidepartment sind schon schlimm genug. Aber eine junge Frau, die in Drogengeschäfte verwickelt ist, entfacht auch noch seinen Beschützerinstinkt und er weiß selbst nicht, wie er damit umgehen soll. Er droht unter der vielfältigen Belastung zusammenzubrechen.
Die Enthüllung eines ungeahnten Geheimnisses der Vergangenheit wirft letztendlich alles durcheinander. Das erklärt zwar einiges, schafft aber auch neue, noch schwierigere Probleme.
Frank muss nun notgedrungen für alles Lösungen finden, die nicht nur für ihn, sondern auch für andere gefährlich, ja sogar lebensgefährlich sind.

Universum

Der plötzliche Tod ihres Lebenspartners reißt Christina aus ihrem erfüllten und glücklichen Leben. Überwältigt von ihrem Schmerz scheint die Welt stillzustehen, und jeder Schritt nach vorn wirkt unmöglich.
Unterstützung bieten ihr eine einfühlsame Therapeutin, und dann ist da noch ihre neue Freundin, die sie zufällig in einer Trauergruppe kennenlernt - eine Frau, die ein ähnliches Schicksal mit ihr teilt.
In kleinen Schritten kämpft sie sich aus der tiefen Trauer heraus.
Stück für Stück versucht sie, in ihrem neuen Leben anzukommen - einem Leben, dass nie mehr so sein wird wie es war, das aber dennoch lebenswert ist.
Mit eigener Kraft und trotz mancher Enttäuschung beginnt Christina, zuerst zögernd und dann immer vertrauensvoller, ihren eigenen Weg zu gehen. Sie lernt, ihre Zukunft zu gestalten und findet einen Umgang mit der Erinnerung an Bernhard, die nicht nur schmerzt, sondern ihr auch neue Kraft gibt.
Ein einfühlsamer Roman über Verlust und Neubeginn, und den Mut, dem Leben erneut zu begegnen und darin mehr zu finden, als man je für möglich gehalten hätte.

The Dead

Sparks fly as two former college rivals are forced together for a new D&amp;D campaign—clashing both in and out of the game—in this fusion of contemporary second-chance romance and fantasy from the author of Roll for Romance. “Level Up for Love has all the fun of Roll for Romance while feeling like entirely its own thing. The interweaving of the D&amp;D campaign with the main love story makes for a thoroughly entertaining read.”—M. Stevenson, author of Behooved In college, Reagan Riley and Wesley Locke were constantly at each other’s throats, competing to be the best in their video game design program—until Wesley ghosts her after their unexpected hookup, severing their ties for good. Six years later, Reagan has set aside her game design dreams, opting instead to stay close to her family in Connecticut and channel her creative energy into D&amp;D. When her longstanding group falls apart, she and her sister join their local game store's new advanced campaign—only to find the demanding Dungeon Master at the helm is none other than Wesley. In the game, he is Vadrien, a merciless, power-hungry vampire lord, and Reagan is Sindra, the sword-wielding lady knight who will stop at nothing to cut him down. When a game design opportunity opens up in the real world, Reagan and Wesley find themselves doubly pitted against each other. But as their buried spark reignites and Reagan starts to question why Wesley left all those years ago, can they find a way to play nice—and are they playing for more than just to win?

Mein Freund Aaron ist die bewegende Geschichte einer außergewöhnlichen Freundschaft zwischen Yassir, einem palästinensischen, und Aaron, einem Jüdischen Jungen. Eine Freundschaft, die allen gesellschaftlichen Regeln, Vorurteilen und familiären Verboten trotzt, und die trotz Entfernung und Widrigkeiten über Jahre hinweg Bestand hat.
Mit großer Sensibilität und erzählerischer Kraft führt uns John Nietsch in eine Welt, in der politische Spannungen und religiöse Grenzen das Leben bestimmen. Er erinnert uns daran, dass Menschen überall auf der Welt gleich sind, unabhängig ihrer Herkunft, Religion, Kultur oder Hautfarbe. In einer Zeit, in der der Konflikt zwischen Israel und Palästina aktueller denn je erscheint. Der Autor betont, dass kein Gesetz vorschreiben kann, wen man lieben darf, und dass Liebe keine Grenzen, keine Mauern und keine Vorurteile kennt.

Classroom of the Elite: Year 3 (Light Novel)

The cutthroat school drama light novels that inspired a&nbsp;manga adaptation&nbsp;and a&nbsp;spin-off series&nbsp;starring fan-favorite character Horikita Suzune (both also from Seven Seas)—and don’t miss the anime! From their humble beginnings as Class 1-D, Horikita and her classmates are ready to begin their third year as Class 3-A! But there's no time for celebrating--the battle is far from over. With only one year left until graduation, even the smallest failure can pull them off track. Not only will they have to fight harder than ever, they'll have to do it without their most influential student: Ayanokouji Kiyotaka. Amid the chaos of losing Ayanokouji to Class C, Horikita’s class finds themselves faced with one cruel truth: if they can’t defeat Ayanokouji, they don’t stand a chance to graduate from Class A. Do they have what it takes to remain on top, or are they doomed to fail? Class is in session for the highly anticipated Year 3 of the hit light novel series that inspired an anime and manga!

RISE TOGETHER OR FALL APART Now recognized as the leader of Class C, Ayanokouji works on deepening his relationships with his new classmates. Meanwhile, a mysterious new exam is announced, and the only scraps of information the students are given are: “a new exam will begin starting tomorrow” and “details will be announced in a week.” Without a clue to work off of, Class C immediately starts brainstorming what the exam might entail and how to tackle it. Class A, on the other hand, can’t seem to get back on track following the damage dealt to them at the start of the term. Can Horikita work together with Karuizawa, Kushida, and Ibuki to unite their classmates and dominate in the upcoming exam, or will their place as Class A slip from their grasp?

Classroom of the Elite: Year 3 (Light Novel) Vol. 2

How artists challenge blockchain’s financial logics to reimagine value, community, and futures beyond capitalism. White Papers on Dissent explores blockchain technology beyond its economic narratives and technical promises, framing it as a social device to rehearse post-capitalist imaginaries. Far from being a neutral infrastructure, blockchain has become a contested terrain where governance, value, and cooperation are redefined. Barbara Cueto moves beyond market-driven interpretations to explain how blockchain can function as a tool for radical imagination—a structure that, despite its entanglements with finance, holds the potential to support alternative forms of social organization. Bridging art history, political theory, and technology studies, and inspired by David Graeber, Joseph Beuys, and J.K. Gibson-Graham, the book introduces Critical Blockchain Art as an artistic practice that appropriates blockchain as both a conceptual framework and a technical infrastructure for political experimentation. Rather than reproducing speculative markets or technological spectacle, these projects engage with the social and material conditions of blockchain to question how value is produced, how cooperation is organized, and how dissent can be enacted. In doing so, they build on the legacy of socially engaged art and institutional critique, while opening new spaces for testing alternative modes of governance and rethinking the infrastructures that shape collective life.
