        Facing Death

        Suicide as last emancipation?

        by Jean-Pierre Wils

        Assisted suicide has been the subject of much passionate debate in many societies. The philosopher and theologian Jean-Pierre Wils does not deny autonomy, but asks – on the basis of his profound historical and ethical knowledge – about the social consequences. Does the right to assisted suicide not in the long run lead to the obligation to decide for or against it? And does not the pressure towards a supposedly reasonable decision increase, as soon as the causation of one‘s own death is seen as a final act of self-realisation and emancipation, or even commended as such? Wils makes a strong plea for the debate to be held in a broader context, to remove our finiteness from cultural amnesia – and in doing so, lays the foundation for a contemporary discussion on assisted suicide.

        Erosion

        by Artem Chapeye

        After a young couple returns from their vacation to the Carpathian Mountains in Ukraine, they discover that the world as they once knew it no longer exists. Tragedy happened and survivors are forced to adapt to the harsh conditions of their new reality: overcoming deeply-rooted fears, they try to forge another world where they can unite with those who still retained their humanity. Will the couple be able to survive, make alliances with others, and give birth to a new generation? Will the insidiousness of human nature manifest itself in this new world? Chapeye's post-apocalyptic novel, diluted with beautifully melancholic and black humor, is a kind of artistic study of people's behavior in critical situations when everything that once seemed stable falls apart.

        The Strand

        A biography

        by Geoff Browell, Eileen Chanin

        The first history of one of London's most extraordinary streets. Running along the Thames's northern shore and spanning three-quarters of a mile from Trafalgar Square to Temple Bar, the Strand has been a witness to London's growth and change from the earliest years of the city's existence. In The Strand: A biography, Geoff Browell and Eileen Chanin uncover the deep history of this remarkable street. Tracing its origins in the Roman era, they reveal how it grew in importance as authority shifted from church to aristocracy, then to commerce, media and law. Over time, everything that mattered converged on the Strand: tradition and ceremony clashed with rebellion and destitution. By 1910, the street was known as the 'centre of the world'. Drawing on remarkable archival discoveries, Browell and Chanin present the most complete and compelling history of the Strand ever written. Filled with surprising, untold stories, The Strand: A biography is a must-read for lovers of one of the world's greatest cities.

        The Great Prussia Hotel

        by Bohdan Kolomiychuk

        It’s 1905 in Europe. Russia is losing the war with Japan and is now concentrating its forces in the West. Specifically, hundreds of Russian entrepreneurs head to Austria-Hungary and Prussia to establish business relationships, agents of the Russian Okhranka secret police and members of Russia’s criminal underworld disguised among them. Meanwhile, in the Austrian city of Lviv, the career of Criminal Police Commissar Adam Wistowicz advances. He’s one of the best investigators in Halychyna (Galicia), whose reputation is well known even in the empire’s capital, Vienna. Wistowicz’s ex-wife Anna Kalisch, an actress of the Berlin Shauspielhaus, unexpectedly finds herself in the middle of the ruthless whirlpool. In despair, she sends the commissar a telegram, begging for help. Between two fires, in foreign Prussia, Wistowicz takes on the most dangerous case of his life. He finds himself in the Royal Opera House, among communists in a German pub, in the luxury Great Prussia Hotel in Posen, then one on one with a maniac in the middle of an empty square… Teetering at knifepoint between life and death, winning crazy amounts of money and subsequently losing it, and confronting a powerful enemy with only intelligence and adroitness, the commissar from faraway Halychyna brilliantly brings the case to a close… and proves victorious.

        Other things

        by Yurko Izdryk

        Yurko Izdryk’s poetry has an extraordinary optical effect as if he talks to you eye to eye reaching deep into your soul. The poems touch on such a level that you can find yourself inside them, and after all, inside the poet’s or lyrical hero’s life, living it as your own because it is so real. This personal touch is known in Ukraine as the phenomenon of Izdryk. Regardless of the phenomenon’s variating tonality – sometimes softly lyrical or harshly ironic, it remains native, yours, reflected by you. In addition to poems, there are also poet’s collages, “other things” that appear in words and pictures, thereby creating the body of one single object - the book as an artifact of life.

And yet, the associate professor of the department of higher and applied mathematics becomes a cook. She spent seven days in the city of her childhood, from which she once flew out in a traffic jam and vowed never to return.

        Der Strand bei Nacht

        by Elena Ferrante, Mara Cerri, Karin Krieger

        Allein am Strand zurückgelassen und ganz auf sich gestellt – die Puppe Celina durchlebt eine schreckliche Nacht. Der schäbige Strandwärter versucht, ihr die Worte zu rauben und sie mit seinem großen Rechen aufzukehren wie Müll, das Feuer will sie verbrennen, und das Meer erhört keines ihrer Gebete. Aber Schlimmste ist: Ihre Puppenmutter, das kleine Mädchen Mati, hat sie vergessen, denn Mati hat jetzt ein kleines Kätzchen zur Spielgefährtin. Ein Unglück folgt aufs Nächste, bis die Nacht sich in einen Tag verwandelt, und als die Sonne aufgeht, sieht Celina plötzlich alles ein wenig klarer. Der Strand bei Nacht ist die rätselhafte, berührende, überraschende Geschichte einer Puppe mit zerbrechlicher Seele und allzu menschlichen Gefühlen. Elena Ferrantes unverwechselbare Verlebendigungskunst und Mara Cerris traumähnliche Bilder fügen sich zu einem eindringlichen Leseerlebnis für kleine und große Ferrante-Fans.
