Clandestine chemistry and the LA underworld provide the atmosphere for this kaleidoscopic tale of lost memories and the heartbreak of finding them, from the author of ‘The Contortionist’s Handbook’.When Eric Ashworth wakes in jail, he has no idea how he got there, or why. His only memory is a woman's name: Desiree.Released on bail and holed up in a low-rent motel, Eric starts to piece together his former life as a chemist at the centre of a desert drug ring with the help of a powerful new hallucinogen which simultaneously loosens his grip on the present. As the events of his past begin to emerge from the confusion of his fragmented memory, Eric must contend with a gnawing paranoia and the need for ever-increasing fixes – not to mention disturbing visits from an intimidating police detective, his former associate Manhattan White and the ominously named Toe Tag. As his grip on reality becomes more tenuous, past and present, reality and fantasy begin to bleed into each other, bringing this visceral, shifting novel of love and loss to its climax.

The extraordinary story of the deserters of the Second World War. Who were they? What made them run? And what happened once they made the decision to flee?During the Second World War, the British lost 100,000 troops to desertion, and the Americans 40,000. Commonwealth forces from Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Britain's colonial empire also left the ranks in their thousands. The overwhelming majority of deserters from all armies were front-line infantry troops; without them, the war was harder to win. Many of these men were captured and court martialled, while others were never apprehended. Some remain wanted to this day. Why did these men decide to flee their ranks?In ‘Deserter’, veteran reporter and historian Charles Glass follows a group of British and American deserters into the heat of battle and explores what motivated them to take their fateful decision to run away. The result is a highly emotional and engaging study of an under-explored area of World War II history.

Nachkriegszeit auf einer kleinen Fischerinsel im Norden Norwegens. Tora w?chst mit dem Stigma heran, Kind eines Soldaten der verhassten Besatzungsmacht zu sein. Das macht aus ihr praktisch Freiwild … Deutschenkind ist Band 1 der ber?hmten Tora-Trilogie, einer Romanfolge, die f?r das kaum zu Ertragende eine gro?artige Sprache findet. Herbj?rg Wassmo schildert einen historischen sozialen Kosmos – den Alltag der auf den Fischfang angewiesenen Inselbewohner Nordnorwegens in den 1950er Jahren. Mal drastisch, mal komisch, mal ersch?tternd und verbl?ffend unverf?lscht entfaltet sich die Erlebniswelt eines Kindes an der Schwelle zur jungen Frau. Mit ihrer bildstarken, ungeheuer direkten Erz?hlsprache zieht die Schriftstellerin uns v?llig in Toras Welt hinein: das karge Leben auf der Insel, der Wechsel der Jahreszeiten. Die atmosph?rischen Echos der Nachkriegszeit, der Alltag zwischen argloser Neugier, Gewalt und Vorurteil – all das ?bt einen unwiderstehlichen Sog aus. Trotz schwerer Themen ist das Buch kaum aus der Hand zu legen – eine mitrei?ende, kraftvolle, poetische und wichtige Lekt?re. Ein zeitlos gro?er Roman, f?r den Herbj?rg Wassmo mit dem norwegischen Kritikerpreis geehrt wurde.

Dabei geht es besonders um die oft vertraulichen Hintergr?nde, die Kanzler, Vizekanzler und Minister so gern verbergen. Denn der Autor beschreibt nicht nur die Ergebnisse, sondern auch, wie sie zustande kamen – etwa wie die Abkommen zu den streng geheimen Raketenpl?nen (SDI) der USA an die ?ffentlichkeit gelangten. Oder was sich im Hintergrund beim Regierungswechsel von Helmut Schmidt zu Helmut Kohl wirklich abspielte, wie Politiker von Horst Seehofer bis Hans Eichel ihre Ehepartner austauschten oder von Helmut Kohl bis Hans-Dietrich Genscher Krankheiten verheimlichten, wie Joschka Fischer als gr?ner Au?enminister einem Kriegseinsatz ohne UNO-Mandat zustimmte, welche Reiseabteuer Bundespr?sidenten erlebten und wie Angela Merkel nach dem Mauerfall in die Politik kam.

The third Nancy Chan novel: a mischievous, insightful romp set in Provence during the summer of 2002.It’s 2002 and New Yorkers from every walk of life are anxious about the local economy. A girl can't always meet her quota, and hotel security's a lot more challenging than it was last summer. So, feeling ambivalent about having a baby with Matt, Nancy accepts an offer to travel with Milton, her most favoured customer, to the South of France, where he has recently purchased a vacation home. Besides, it's ego-enhancing to be offered big bucks by a hugely successful guy and whilst Nancy has resisted travelling with her johns in the past, she now jumps at the chance to leave New York.Using her own mother as an alibi, Nancy tells Matt that Mom (divorced, running a B&B in Wales) has planned a mother-daughter vacation in the South of France, so they can check out some property together. In reality, we find Nancy and her friends getting up to some unwholesome frolics in Milt’s pad, with a new cast of colourful characters – including an international madam living in St-Tropez – and a startling romantic collision involving Duncan, Milt’s cook, to keep things interesting.

At least for a while.This wonderfully intelligent, sexually frank, rollicking novel gives us fresh insight into the machinations and politics of being an expensive call girl in the modern world. Quan pulls no punches, gives no apologies, and has written one of the best and most honest books yet on the topic.

Die fr?heste Zeit der christlichen Kirche l?ge im Dunkel der Geschichte – g?be es da nicht die kanonische Apostelgeschichte des Lukas. Sie gilt als die einzige Quelle ?ber die Fr?hzeit der Kirche und hat schon deshalb eine ungeheure Wirkung entfaltet. Nicht zuletzt sind ihre Daten zu Jesu Auferstehung und Himmelfahrt sowie zur Ausgie?ung des heiligen Geistes an Pfingsten Grundlage unseres Kalenders geworden. Doch Lukas gilt nicht nur als einzige Quelle, sein Bild von der idealen apostolischen Gemeinde in Jerusalem wird auch vielfach als geschichtlich zuverl?ssig ausgegeben, und das bis heute. Gerd L?demann zeigt, dass beides nicht stimmt. Erst unterzieht er die lukanische Darstellung einer scharfen Kritik und entlarvt sie als freie Erfindung des Autors. Anschlie?end rekonstruiert er die ersten drei Jahre des Christentums auf der Grundlage der zweiten Quelle zur Fr?hzeit der Kirche, der Paulusbriefe, neu. Als Resultat vermag L?demann zu zeigen, dass es am Anfang der Kirche zeitgleich eine christliche Gemeinde in Damaskus und eine in Jerusalem gab, deren Glaube und Praxis sich stark voneinander unterschieden. "Akribisch hat der Neutestamentler und Historiker Gerd L?demann versucht, die ersten drei Jahre nach Jesu Tod bis etwa zur Bekehrung des Paulus zu erhellen."Norbert Copray in: Publik-Forum Nr. 8, April 2013

Deutschland im Jahre 2015. Zu Hunderttausenden str?men die Fl?chtlinge aus dem gesamten arabischen Raum und aus Afrika nach Europa. Ein Gro?teil ohne Papiere, aber so gut wie nie ohne teures und meist neuestes Handy oder Smartphone. Viele weder kontrolliert noch registriert. Das es sich hierbei nicht nur um bedauernswerte, schutzsuchende Kriegsfl?chtlinge handelt, sondern auch ein gewisser Anteil aus ganz anderen Motiven nach Europa dr?ngt, liegt auf der Hand. Pl?tzlich ersch?ttern Morde an arabischen jungen, als Fl?chtlinge registrierten, M?nnern die so ?beraus hilfsbereite Bev?lkerung und die Politik. F?r Politiker und Gutmenschen aller Couleur richtet sich der Verdacht sofort gegen Rechtspopulisten und Neo-Nazis. Aber stimmt das wirklich? Es kommen Zweifel auf – und manchmal tr?gt der Schein.
