1930 kaufte die Schriftstellerin Vita Sackville-West mit ihrem Ehemann Harold Nicolson die Ruine von Schloss Sissinghurst in Kent, um dort einen Garten zu erschaffen. Heute bewundern jährlich 160.000 Menschen ihr Lebenswerk.

Living with a powerfully ambitious writer who is consumed by his work, and trying to find a place for her own spirit to thrive, she rails against the confines. At the same time, she is desperate to find the truth in their relationship—and the truth of her own self.

Passioni e sentimenti, paure, tenerezze, invocazioni, tradimenti, ricongiungimenti, botte e minacce, miseria e malattia: tutto sotto "Un cielo fatto solo d'amore". È l'incontro di Dino Campana con Sibilla Aleramo, incontro straordinario, come le lettere che i due amanti si scrissero. Ogni pagina di questo carteggio è un viaggio, esaltante e senza soste, che ha inizio sotto il sole infuocato dell'agosto 1916, fra la vera montagna dei solitari e la pura bellezza dei grandi boschi e prosegue serenamente negli ultimi splendori della bella stagione a Faenza e Marradi.

It’s morning at Meadow Brook Nursing Home. During the last 10 months, this has been my mother’s abode. Most days, I feel it is mine, too. Life, as I have known it, is a blur. Alzheimer’s has taken mother from herself, her family, and her friends. It has demanded a grit and grace in our everyday lives beyond human comprehension. I know that I must tell her story - which ultimately is my story, too - with hope that it may bring a degree of peace to the hearts of those who have walked, or will walk, the same road.

Dieser Zeitzeugenbericht eines Außenstehenden spiegelt die angespannte Stimmung Anfang der 1960er Jahre in den USA auf fesselnde Weise wider. Über einen Monat lang reist Siegfried Lenz 1962 durch die USA. 50 Jahre später veröffentlicht er sein Reisetagebuch. Er spürt die bedrohliche Atmosphäre des Kalten Krieges, die der Sprecher dieses Hörbuchs, Burghart Klaußner nur zu gut wiedergeben kann.

Selma Lagerlöf hade hunnit bli 33 år när hon debuterade med ”Gösta Berlings Saga”, och efter det levde hon sitt liv som en mycket produktiv författare som skrev flertalet välkända romaner och noveller. Idag räknas Lagerlöf som en av Sveriges främsta författare någonsin. Men vem var hon egentligen? Och vilka uppoffringar tvingades hon att göra för att tillslut bli den första kvinnliga ledamoten i Svenska Akademien? Litteraturvetaren och författaren Vivi Edström skildrar en av våra mest berömda och inflytelserika författares liv genom tiderna.

Im Januar 1945 befreite die Rote Armee das Konzentrationslager Auschwitz. Über eine Million Menschen wurde dort von den Nationalsozialisten umgebracht. Das Hörspiel "Briefe aus der Hölle" basiert auf den erstmals restaurierten Texten der Mitglieder des Sonderkommandos in Auschwitz- Birkenau, die gezwungen wurden, bei dem Massenmord in den Krematorien mitzuhelfen. Dass einige von ihnen den Drang verspürten, schriftliche Zeugnisse des Grauens zu verfassen, ist von erschütternder Menschlichkeit. Im Angesicht des fast sicheren Todes wollten sie nur eins: der Nachwelt berichten, was geschah.

Martha Gellhorn was a strong-willed, self-made, modern woman whose journalism, and life, were widely influential at the time and cleared a path for women who came after her. An ardent anti-fascist, she wrote about real people doing real things with intelligence and passion. She is most famous, to her enduring exasperation, as Ernest Hemingway's third wife. Long after their divorce, her short tenure as "Mrs. Hemingway" from 1940 to 1945 invariably eclipsed her writing and, consequently, she never received her full due.

This book is the second handbook - an account of contemporary life and a personal diary written by me. The real joy that our time gives back is through experiences, not a rediscovery of new technologies but a function in different historical and geological periods, what has already created it according to explanations of events and their solutions.

أتســـاءل في كل يوم "هل ســـأموت بطريقة طبيعية أم سألقى حتفي بطريقة شنيعة مثلما فعلت بآخرين في حياتي? أرى أن الخيار الثاني هو الأقرب, فكل إنسان

Helen Garner has kept a diary for almost all her life. But until now, those exercise books filled with her thoughts, observations, frustrations and joys have been locked away, out of bounds, in a laundry cupboard. Finally, Garner has opened her diaries and invited readers into the world behind her novels and works of non-fiction. Yellow Notebook: Diaries Volume I spans a decade beginning in the late 1970s just after the publication of her first novel, Monkey Grip.

World War II rises in its vastness and complexity over the rest of human history. A number of victims difficult to conceive, never surpassed by any other conflict, the war was a gigantic melting pot of violence, power, and ideology that will leave an indelible scar on human history. This diary has been able to cover all facets of the conflict, and it is a fundamentally empirical work, which narrates events as they occurred, rejecting value judgments, and therein lies its value: it is an insurmountable encyclopedia on war. Here, the day by day of the month of: May 1940.

This diary is the third book written by me, an exploration of urban and suburban environments to observe humans and modern objects. Representations in philosophical or mathematical form in order to find the right amount of motion, the proof that good is a higher feeling than an evil, the right repetition of always the same things to confirm that here one cannot say the false is even less realize it. A certain practicality that can be associated with a manual on socio-political rights, then the different forms of exit from a modern unhealthy or incorporeal being.

How does one record an extraordinary time? Confined to his Delhi apartment, Manash Firaq Bhattacharjee unravels the intimate paradoxes of the life he encounters in the first weeks of a global pandemic. His stories about local fish sellers, gardeners, barbers, and lovers merge with his concerns for the exodus of migrant labourers, the challenges faced by health workers, and a mother braving check posts to bring her son home.

Im November 1974 bricht Werner Herzog zu einer Wanderung von München nach Paris auf. Sollte er die französische Hauptstadt erreichen - das ist seine feste Überzeugung -, würde die von ihm verehrte Filmhistorikerin Lotte Eisner am Leben bleiben. Vom Gehen im Eis ist eine große, zu Herzen gehende Meditation über Leben und Tod - ein Wortfilm, der neben den mehr als vierzig Spiel- und Dokumentarfilmen von Werner Herzog eine ganz eigene Ausstrahlung und Magie besitzt.

Before Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, and Doonesbury, there was Art Buchwald. For more than fifty years, from 1949 to 2006, Art Buchwald’s Pulitzer Prize-winning column of political satire and biting wit made him one of the most widely read American humorists and a popular player in the Washington world of Ethel and Ted Kennedy, Ben Bradlee, and Katharine Graham. Dean Acheson, former U.S. Secretary of State, called Buchwald the “greatest satirist in the English language since Pope and Swift.”
