Den Sommer, den sie im Manchester Castle verbrachte, wo sie von einem Gl?cklich-bis-ans-Lebensende in den Armen des Mannes tr?umte, der ihr Herz h?lt. Der Krieg hat Garrick Edwards zynisch zur?ckgelassen.

Widerwillig kehrt er an seinen Familiensitz zur?ck. Als er ankommt, findet er Hannah dort. Ihre Briefe w?hrend des Kriegs hatten ihm Hoffnung geschenkt, wenn es keine gab; jedoch glaubt er nicht, dass er ihre Liebe verdient.

Im Grunde ihres Herzens klammern sie sich an diese Hoffnung und beginnen sich zu fragen, ob manche Tr?ume wahr werden k?nnen. Die Frage ist, werden sie mutig genug sein nach diesen zu greifen…

Not since Angela Carter’s The Bloody Chamber have old stories been made to feel so electrically new. Not since Wim Winders’ Wings of Desire have the numinous and the everyday been so magically combined. It's in the nature of myth to be infinitely adaptable. Each of these startlingly original stories is set in modern Britain. Their characters include a people-trafficking gang-master and a prostitute, a migrant worker and a cocksure estate agent, an elderly musician doubly befuddled by dementia and the death of his wife, a pest-controller suspected of paedophilia and a librarian so well-behaved that her parents wonder anxiously whether she’ll ever find love. They’re ordinary people, preoccupied, as we all are now, by the deficiencies of the health service, by criminal gangs and homelessness, by the pitfalls of dating in the age of #metoo. All of their stories, though, are inspired by ones drawn from Graeco-Roman myth, from the Bible or from folk-lore. The ancients invented myths to express what they didn’t understand. These witty fables, elegantly written and full of sharp-eyed observation of modern life, are also visionary explorations of potent mysteries and strange passions, charged with the hallucinatory beauty and horror of their originals.

‘I was saying things in songs that female singers didn’t really say back then. I wasn’t submissive or begging him to come back, I was kicking his ass, kicking him out, kicking my own ass too. My Blondie character was an inflatable doll but with a dark, provocative, aggressive side. I was playing it up, yet I was very serious. ’ BRAVE, BEAUTIFUL AND BORN TO BE PUNK DEBBIE HARRY is a musician, actor, activist and the iconic face of New York City cool. As the front-woman of Blondie, she and the band forged a new sound that brought together the worlds of rock, punk, disco, reggae and hip-hop to create some of the most beloved pop songs of all time. As a muse, she collaborated with some of the boldest artists of the past four decades. The scope of Debbie Harry’s impact on our culture has been matched only by her reticence to reveal her rich inner life – until now. In an arresting mix of visceral, soulful storytelling and stunning visuals that includes never-before-seen photographs, bespoke illustrations and fan art installations, Face It upends the standard music memoir while delivering a truly prismatic portrait. With all the grit, grime, and glory recounted in intimate detail, Face It recreates the downtown scene of 1970s New York City, where Blondie played alongside the Ramones, Television, Talking Heads, Iggy Pop and David Bowie. Following her path from glorious commercial success to heroin addiction, the near-death of partner Chris Stein, a heart-wrenching bankruptcy, and Blondie’s break-up as a band to her multifaceted acting career in more than thirty films, a stunning solo career and the triumphant return of her band, and her tireless advocacy for the environment and LGBTQ rights, Face It is a cinematic story of a woman who made her own path, and set the standard for a generation of artists who followed in her footsteps – a memoir as dynamic as its subject.

?ber 99 Umwege von Hamburg nach Apulien
Hanno Rinke ist fast am Ziel. Zufrieden kann er auf ein erf?lltes Leben zur?ckschauen. Trotzdem – und von Abenteuerlust getrieben – f?hrt er aber noch einmal die Stationen seines Lebens ab. Genauer genommen, er l?sst sich fahren – mal im Mercedes, mal im Rollstuhl. Zusammen mit Silke und Rafal, den Gef?hrten seines Alterns, reist Hanno sieben Wochen lang ?ber 99 Umwege von seiner Heimatstadt Hamburg nach Apulien, seinem Sehnsuchtsort, und wieder zur?ck. Unterwegs macht das Trio an jenen Orten, Gasth?fen und Str?nden halt, die Hanno mit pr?genden Erinnerungen verbindet: an seine Kindheit, an leidenschaftliche N?chte als (junger) Mann, an K?nstler aus seinem Berufsleben und an Albernheiten, die zu sch?n sind, um sie wegzulassen. Der Ausflug in die Vergangenheit, der weniger von Sentimentalit?t bestimmt ist als von Neugier, bietet reichlich Gelegenheit zum Sinnieren ?ber Welt­geschehen, Politik, Religion, Alter und nat?rlich Sex.
Hanno beobachtet, analysiert schonungslos seine Umwelt und sich selbst und pointiert. Ein herrlich subjektiver Reisebericht voller Geschichte und Geschichten, Erlebtem und Erdachtem, Unbequemem und Vers?hnlichem.
