»›Woran arbeiten Sie?‹ wurde Herr K. gefragt. Herr K. antwortete: ›Ich habe viel Mühe, ich bereite meinen nächsten Irrtum vor.‹« Diese Situation ist typisch für die Geschichten vom Herrn Keuner: eine einfache, alltägliche Ausgangsfrage und die überraschende, unerwartete Antwort. Die dialogisch-dialektische Struktur dieser parabelhaften Prosaminiaturen und ihr subtiler Humor eignen sich eigentlich hervorragend für die Umsetzung als Comic. Dennoch kann es nicht verwundern, dass sich bislang noch niemand an sie herangetraut hat, denn: Wie lassen sich Denkbilder in gezeichnete Bilder umsetzen? Und wie lässt sich Bertolt Brechts Kunst- und Spielfigur Keuner, die durchaus autobiografische Züge trägt und dennoch als ein Mann ohne Eigenschaften gilt, überhaupt darstellen? Ulf K., einer der international renommiertesten deutschen ComicKünstler, hat es nun gewagt und überrascht mit einem Herrn K., der absolut zeitlos-modern ist und dennoch unser Zeitgenosse sein könnte. Diese schwungvoll-frische Adaption erweckt den Eindruck, Brecht habe die Geschichten soeben erst für unsere unmittelbare Gegenwart geschrieben und uns gemeinsam mit Ulf K. ein ebenso intellektuelles wie ästhetisches Vergnügen beschert.

Naledi is a normal 12 year old girl living in Maun Botswana —normal, that is, until the day Oratile, her bully at school, notices the three scars she has on her arm, scars she got on the day her mother died. Oratile recognizes those scars because she has them too! But how can that be? Slowly the truth about what those scars mean is revealed—Naledi, just like Oratile, is one of the Lionesses, secret female superheroes fighting to keep Earth and its people safe from evil. Her mother gave her those scars as she was dying so that she could pass her Lioness powers to Naledi. Meanwhile, Sheridan, Naledi’s best friend, has uncovered a secret group of scientists working in Maun, the SES, who are working on Earth’s most pressing problems. They’ve developed a forever-energy-producing object, a green diamond, which can solve all of Earth’s energy needs. It seems like a good thing, but if it gets into the wrong hands it could be a very big problem. Unfortunately, the wrong hands are on their way to Earth for that very reason. Naledi quickly starts learning how to be a Lioness but the time is short because evil is coming! That evil is in the form of Verril, an alien leader from the planet Kepler C, who has a single objective: to take over the entire Universe. The problem is Verril needs energy to power her superweapons that will ensure in battle she and the Keplerians will always be the victors. She is coming to Earth to get the forever-energy producing green diamonds. If she’s successful, the end of The Universe, including Earth, will not be far behind. The Lionesses are the only ones who can stop Verril from getting the green diamonds. Naledi will risk nearly everything to keep the green diamonds out for Verril’s evil hands…the question is: will that be enough to save the Universe?

The first book of Vo Trong Ngnia, “the architect who has changed Vietnam” commented by BBC and CNN. He is a hot candidate for Pritzker Architecture Prize, winner of over 15 international prizes including International Architecture Award and ARCASIA award, recognized worldwide on bamboo architecture and green architecture. “Sometimes we just ask the question: how many green areas, how many big trees, can we give back to our earth when we design the building?” ——Vo Trong Nghia Infinitely close to nature is the first book by Vo Trong Nghia, leading architect in bamboo architecture and green architecture, winner of more than 15 international awards including International Architecture Award, ARCASIA award, FuturArc Green leadership Award, etc. Through Vo’ s writings, interviews and cases, Infinitely Close to Nature records his classic practice in bamboo architecture, green architecture and low-cost houses. Vo believes that architecture should connect people with nature, instead of separating them off. He infuses highly “invasive” plants into the architecture space, creates “inner” space that is open or semi-open to nature, and builds green architecture with sustainable and local materials. By developing unique processing methods, he turns bamboo into “the steel of 21st century” and uses them to build strikingly grand bamboo architecture. In addition to commercial projects, Vo also pays attention to the residential condition of the low- er-income, designing low-cost houses which are inexpensive and easy to install, with their design also highly praised. The New York Times commented that he has brought Japanese simplicity to Southeastern Asia, CNN said he changed the skyline of Asia. With more than 60 high-res color pictures, Infinitely close to nature fully demonstrates the interior and exterior structure, details, inspirations and the aesthetical source of Vo’ s works.

— By the expert in ethical business — Once you have finished this, you will never fall for green financial lies again — Global Ethic Institute (Weltethos- Institut) network And suddenly every bank is sustainable. This truly necessary "debate book" explains in a wellfounded way what green-washing means in the financial sector, and why banks, insurance companies, asset managers, stockbrokers and other financial players clothe themselves in their allegedly so green-and-friendly cloak. It provides an easy-to-understand explanation of the various forms of greenwashing, how we can recognise the different "varieties" and – above all – how we can avoid them. This is also important because the entire financial and capital system is an important part of a sustainable future – and this can only succeed if it is honest, transparent and impact-orientated.
