The fraught and generative relationship between two postwar literary giants—revealed through a series of letters published for the first time in English. Ingeborg Bachmann (1926–1973) stands among the most vital voices of postwar German literature—an acclaimed poet and prose writer who also reshaped radio drama and opera. In 1958, a letter of admiration from the Swiss novelist Max Frisch (1911–1991), written after hearing Bachmann’s radio play The Good God of Manhattan, led to a meeting in Paris and the beginning of an intense, volatile love affair that would forever leave a mark on both their lives and work. Presented here for the first time in English, 299 letters written between 1958 and 1973 trace the arc of that relationship: long separations, the strain of two writers attempting to share a life, creative rivalry, sexual jealousy, and gendered tensions sharpened by a fifteen-year age gap. The correspondence ranges from everyday logistics to raw psychological insight, from passion and longing to bitterness, silence, and regret. The later letters, written as Bachmann’s health declined, expand to include friends, relatives, and key literary figures. First published in German in 2022, this correspondence overturned long-held myths about the two writers, revealing mutual influence, negotiated freedom, and a struggle to reconcile incompatible needs. Intimate and revelatory, these letters illuminate the fragile intersection of love, power, and creativity.

The complete collection of published short stories of Edmund Crispin, together in one volume for the first time.'Detective stories are anti-social. It’s quite impossible to suppose that criminals don’t collect useful information from them, fantastic and far-fetched though they usually are.’Gervase Fen disagrees with such a pompous assessment. If criminals studied detective stories properly, they would get away with . . . well . . . murder.Forty-six detective stories by the great Edmund Crispin – a splendid hoard! Most of them feature his Oxford don, Gervase Fen, and Inspector Humbleby of Scotland Yard, and the cases turn upon a fine assortment of clues – dandelions and hearing aids, a bloodstained cat and a Leonardo drawing, a corpse with an alibi and a truly poisonous letter . . . there seems no limit to the intricacy of Edmund Crispin’s invention or the sparkle of his wit.Compiled from Beware of the Trains, Fen Country and other disparate sources, and concluding with the recently discovered Christmas novella The Hours of Darkness, this is a long-overdue treasury of original, often startling and invariably entertaining tales by one of the acknowledged masters of the detective story. Erudite and complex, succinct yet leisurely, it is classic crime at its finest.

Am 14. Juli 1914 verließ der Dichter Rainer Maria Rilke seinen Wohnort Paris. Eine kurze Reise nach Deutschland wollte er machen und dann wieder in die französische Hauptstadt zurückkehren. Doch der Weltkrieg, der im August ausbrach, durchkreuzte seine Pläne. Nach Paris konnte der gebürtige Prager als österreichischer Staatsbürger nicht mehr zurück. Fast fünf Jahre lang verbrachte er, mit Unterbrechungen, in München. In dieser Zeit des Krieges und der nachfolgenden Revolutionen versiegte seine dichterische Kraft fast vollkommen. Immer wieder beklagte er, dass seine »voix intérieure«, seine innere Stimme, verstummt sei. Dieses Verstummen war keine zufällige Schreibblockade, sondern für Rilke die angemessene und einzig mögliche Antwort auf den Wahnsinn des Krieges. Dichtung und Krieg schlossen sich für ihn gegenseitig aus. Diese Unvereinbarkeit regte ihn dazu an, in Abgrenzung zum Krieg sein Selbstverständnis als Dichter und seine Auffassung von Poetik schärfer zu erfassen und gleichzeitig seine Einstellung zum Krieg deutlich zu machen. Insofern war Rilke keinesfalls der weltfremde Schöngeist, als den man ihn oft darstellt. Hunderte Briefe beweisen, dass er ein genauer Beobachter seiner Zeit war und seine politischen Ansichten, die er in einen größeren Zusammenhang stellte, erhellender waren als die vieler seiner Zeitgenossen. Ausgehend vom »politischen Rilke« werden auch seine traumatischen Kindheits- und Jugenderfahrungen, sein Verhältnis zu seiner Familie und seine Freundschaften zu Frauen verständlicher.

Fünfzig Jahre nach ihrem Tod fordern Ingeborg Bachmanns Briefe eine neue Perspektive auf Leben und Werk dieser Autorin, die uns heute aktueller denn je erscheint. Andrea Stolls Biografie beleuchtet das unübersehbare Spektrum Bachmann'scher Ambivalenzen von seinen Ursprüngen her und führt uns vor Augen, wie diese ikonische Dichterin in eine Spirale von Selbstinszenierung und Selbstzerstörung geraten konnte. Dabei stützt Stoll sich neben wissenschaftlichen Recherchen auf Gespräche mit Zeitzeugen und die Auswertung jüngst veröffentlichter Briefe und Tagebucheinträge. Der erfahrenen Bachmann-Forscherin gelingt so eine erste umfassende Biografie, die viele Rätsel dieses Lebens von den Anfängen bis zu ihrem Ende offenlegen kann.

The train soon breaks down in the middle of nowhere, and as night falls, something...or someone steps out of the distance. Is it a man or something far more sinister?When one of the passengers goes missing, Leo fears that a folkloric tale whispered to him in childhood might be the culprit.(Don't) Call Mum blends Matt Wesolowski's trademark voice of mystery, folklore and humour in this heart-racing tale. 2025 IngramSpark® Editorial Selection - Horror

Una autobiografía novelada en tres partes que ha sido reconocida como uno de los testimonios más estremecedores que se hayan escrito sobre la guerra civil española. Exiliado en Inglaterra desde 1938, Arturo Barea se dedicó plenamente a la literatura y al periodismo y fue «en la paz del country» donde terminó La forja de un rebelde, una trilogía que figura entre las obras maestras de la literatura universal. En la primera parte, La forja (1941) Barea narra su infancia y primera juventud en el Madrid de principios de siglo. Después del gran éxito de este libro, llegó a las librerías inglesas la segunda parte, titulada La ruta (1943), en la que Barea cuenta sus primeros escarceos literarios y, sobre todo, sus experiencias en la guerra de Marruecos. La llama (1946), publicada por la editorial inglesa Faber & Faber, vendió cerca de 6.000 ejemplares en solo seis meses. La razón fue que Barea, en el relato de su vida, había alcanzado, descrito, sufrido y llorado el 18 de julio de 1936 y los años terribles que le siguieron, hasta su exilio en 1938.

Mehrere Jahre musste der österreichische Psychologe Viktor E. Frankl in deutschen Konzentrationslagern verbringen. Doch trotz all des Leids, das er dort sah und erlebte, kam er zu dem Schluss, dass es selbst an Orten der größten Unmenschlichkeit möglich ist, einen Sinn im Leben zu sehen. Seine Erinnerungen, die er in diesem Buch festhielt und die über Jahrzehnte Millionen von Menschen bewegten, sollen weder Mitleid erregen noch Anklage erheben. Sie sollen Kraft zum Leben geben.

Selected "Best Books of 2018: Economics" by The Financial TimesIn ...and forgive them their debts, renowned economist Michael Hudson - one of the few who could see the 2008 financial cri

"A chance meeting of a sewing machine and an umbrella. The impossible face-off between a whale and a polar bear. One was devised by Lautréamont; the other punctuated by Freud. Both are memorable. Why so? They certainly tickle something in us. Lacan says what it is. It's about man and woman. There is neither accord nor harmony between man and woman. There's no programme, nothing has been predetermined: every move is a shot in the dark, which in modal logic is called contingency. There's no way out of it. Why is it so inexorable, that is, so necessary? It really has to be reckoned that this stems from an impossibility. Hence the theorem: 'There is no sexual relation.' The formula has become famous. In the place of what thereby punctures a hole in the real, there is a plethora of luring and enchanting images, and there are discourses that prescribe what this relation must be. These discourses are mere semblance, the artifice of which psychoanalysis has made apparent to all. In the twenty-first century, this is beyond dispute. Who still believes that marriage has a natural foundation? Since it's a fact of culture, one devotes oneself to inventing. One cobbles together different constructions from whatever one can. It may be better ... or worse. 'There is Oneness.' At the heart of the present Seminar, this aphorism, which hitherto went unnoticed, complements the 'there is no' of sexual relation, stating what there is. It should be heard as One-all-alone. Alone in jouissance (which is fundamentally auto-erotic) and alone in significance (outside any semantics). Here begins Lacan's late teaching. Everything he has already taught you is here, and yet everything is new, overhauled, topsy-turvy. Lacan had taught the primacy of the Other in the order of truth and the order of desire. Here he teaches the primacy of the One in its real dimension. He rejects the Two of sexual relation and that of signifying articulation. He rejects the Big Other, the fulcrum of the dialectic of the subject, disputing its existence, which he consigns to fiction. He depreciates desire and promotes jouissance. He rejects Being, which is mere semblance. Henology, the doctrine of the One, here outclasses ontology, the theory of Being. What about the symbolic order? Nothing more than the reiteration of the One in the real. Hence the abandoning of graphs and topological surfaces in favour of knots made of rings of string, each of which is an unlinked One. Recall that Seminar XVIII sighed for a discourse that would not be semblance. Well, with Seminar XIX, we have an attempt at a discourse that would take its point of departure in the real. The radical thought of modern Uni-dividualism."--Jacques-Alain Miller

»Leben heißt letztlich eben nichts anderes als: Verantwortung tragen [...] für die Erfüllung der Aufgaben, die jedem einzelnen das Leben stellt.« (Viktor E. Frankl)Mit 35 Jahren kam der österreichische Psychiater Viktor E. Frankl in ein Konzentrationslager. In den Jahren der Gefangenschaft lernte er, wie Menschen mit unvorstellbarem Leid umgehen und wie es selbst an Orten größter Unmenschlichkeit möglich ist, einen Sinn im Leben zu sehen. Nach der Befreiung verfasste er in nur neun Tagen diesen bewegenden Erfahrungsbericht über seine Erlebnisse in den Konzentrationslagern Theresienstadt, Auschwitz und Türkheim. In den folgenden Jahrzehnten wurde das Buch zum Klassiker der Überlebensliteratur, Generationen von Leserinnen und Lesern finden darin Trost und Orientierung. In über fünfzig Sprachen übersetzt, bietet es eine faszinierende und auch heute noch tief bewegende Erkundung der menschlichen Willenskraft. Diese hochwertig ausgestattete Neuausgabe bietet erstmalig den Originaltext in neuer Deutscher Rechtschreibung sowie mit einem neuen Geleitwort von Ariadne von Schirach.

Von der Wiedergeburt eines Schelms mitten in den Krisen unserer Gegenwart. »Eine erfrischend lakonische Perspektive auf den Zeitgeist. Zum Auftauen komisch.« GaloreVor dreißig Jahren verstorben, bekommt der Computerentwickler Erik Montelius ein zweites Leben geschenkt: Als erster Patient weltweit wird er aus der kryotechnischen Konservierung geholt. Fortan sieht er sein Dasein nicht in Leben und Tod geteilt, sondern in erstes Leben, zweites Leben und Tod. Doch auch im zweiten Leben ist die Welt keine bessere: Seine Frau hat seinen Geschäftspartner geheiratet - der hat zudem Eriks Ideen geklaut.
