        Jetzt küss mich endlich!

        by Patrick Hutsch

        Eine zufällige Begegnung, eine Berührung, ein Blick, es hat gefunkt, wir sind verliebt und nichts ist mehr so, wie es eben noch war. Ob wir bereit sind oder nicht, es ist, was es ist. Wie es sich anfühlt, wenn uns die Liebe überfällt oder wir sie wieder verlieren, davon erzählen die hier versammelten Geschichten von Ingeborg Bachmann, Richard Yates, Julio Cortázar, Judith Hermann und vielen anderen. Geschichten vom Rausch der ersten Liebe, von Glück und Leid, vom Sehnen und Träumen, vom Betrügen und Verlassen. Aber egal, wie die Geschichten ausgehen, am Ende gilt immer Goethes Wort: »Und doch, welch Glück, geliebt zu werden! Und lieben, Götter, welch ein Glück!«

On top of this her best friend, Mayuri, isn’t her best friend anymore, a sinister sponsorship programme is taking over her school, her mother is acting more crazy than usual and the only person who really seems to understand her is a peculiar cleaning lady.

        Thorold Dickinson

        A world of film

        by Philip Horne, Peter Swaab

        The films of Thorold Dickinson (1903-1984), now being rediscovered, engage with major issues including national identity, the post-colonial world, and political violence - and they also show a rare mastery of style, a thrilling eroticism, a preoccupation with the psychology of betrayal. But the director of Gaslight, The Next of Kin and The Queen of Spades was also an editor, documentarist, trade unionist, film producer (for the British Army and the UN), pioneering academic and controversialist. His adventurous and truly global involvement in film took him to Paris in the heyday of silent cinema in the 1920s, to Stalin's USSR in 1937, to the Spanish Civil War, to Africa, India, Israel and America. This book gives a lively, multi-angled account of Dickinson's works, life and times, conveying a sense of his own voice and fascinating character. It includes a richly detailed introduction, a film-by-film discussion of Dickinson with Scorsese, vivid personal memoirs of the director, a dossier of Dickinson's original writings and interviews from 1924 to 1973 (some never previously published), critical essays on all the feature films, and a ground-breaking reference section. The book draws on extensive archival research and close consultation with those who knew Dickinson well. Contributors include: Martin Scorsese, Gavin Millar, Lutz Becker, Charles Barr, Laura Marcus, Kevin Jackson, Kevin Gough-Yates, Ian Christie, Gregory Dart, Hillel Tryster, Janet Moat. ;

        by Katja Brandis/Claudia Carls

        You have never seen the Woodwalkers like this before: find out about the lives of the puma boy Carag and his shapeshifting friends outside the school walls. The young puma shapeshifter Carag is really looking forward to the school holidays. He’s going to visit the family of his girlfriend Tikaani for the first time, so that they can celebrate her birthday together. But before they can head for the far north, they are overtaken by events. First, two self-willed companions join them, and then Carag receives a call for help from his own puma family. A hostile wolf pack has taken over their old den close to Clearwater High. There is something not quite right about these wolves. As the situation becomes increasingly fiery, Carag and Tikaani know they can rely on help from Holly the chipmunk. But will the three of them be able to save the day?

        If Sam can ever finish raking the autumn leaves, he'll get to play with his friends. But more leaves just keep falling! Argh!
