September 2014Carmen
by Prosper Mérimée, Larissa Bertonasco, Kristian Wachinger
Die Begegnung der stolzen und leidenschaftlichen Zigeunerin Carmen mit Don José, der ihr rettungslos verfällt und sie schließlich tötet: das ist einer der bekanntesten Stoffe der Weltliteratur und zugleich Vorlage für die erfolgreichste Oper aller Zeiten, »Carmen« von Georges Bizet. Zahlreiche Verfilmungen machten die Figur endgültig zum Mythos. Die meisterhafte Erzählung von Prosper Mérimée ist auch für den, der die Geschichte zu kennen glaubt, eine Entdeckung. In der schnörkellosen, modernen Übersetzung von Kristof Wachinger erstrahlt die widersprüchliche Figur der Carmen, ihre unbändige Freiheitsliebe, ihre Unerschrockenheit und ihr respektloser Witz, in einem neuen faszinierenden Licht. Die bekannte Illustratorin Larissa Bertonasco setzt die besten Szenen einfallsreich ins Bild.

Roman
by Betty Smith, Eike Schönfeld
Annie liebt Carl. Und Carl liebt Annie. Und so verlässt die Achtzehnjährige heimlich die Wohnung ihrer Mutter in Brooklyn und zieht in die kleine Universitätsstadt im Mittleren Westen, wo Carl Jura studiert. Sie lassen sich gegen den Willen ihrer Eltern trauen und genießen das Glück, endlich beisammen zu sein, auch wenn der Alltag Schatten wirft: Sie müssen mit wenig zurechtkommen, Carl hat kaum Zeit, Annie dafür umso mehr. Doch das Leben meint es gut mit ihnen, Annie findet neue Freunde, Carl bessere Nebenjobs, Annie besucht klammheimlich Literaturseminare und hat erste kleine Erfolge als Schriftstellerin. Und obwohl sie wenig besitzen, fühlen sie sich reich, denn sie wissen, worauf es wirklich ankommt: Sie haben einander. Nachdem Betty Smith uns in Ein Baum wächst in Brooklyn mit der Geschichte der kleinen Francie verzaubert hat, beglückt sie uns nun mit einem wunderbar leichten Roman über das große Glück, zu lieben und geliebt zu werden.

Children's & YAJanuary 2015Hatless
by Lateefa Buti / Illustrated by Doha Al Khteeb
Kuwaiti children’s book author Lateefa Buti’s well-crafted and beautifully illustrated children’s book, Hatless, encourages children (ages 6-9) to think independently and challenge rigid traditions and fixed rituals with innovation and creativity. The main character is a young girl named Hatless who lives in the City of Hats. Here, all of the people are born with hats that cover their heads and faces. The world inside of their hats is dark, silent, and odorless. Hatless feels trapped underneath her own hat. She wants to take off her hat, but she is afraid, until she realizes that whatever frightening things exist in the world around her are there whether or not she takes off her hat to see them. So Hatless removes her hat. As Hatless takes in the beauty of her surroundings, she cannot help but talk about what she sees, hears, and smells. The other inhabitants of the city ostracize her because she has become different from them. It is not long before they ask her to leave the City of Hats. Rather than giving up or getting angry, Hatless feels sad for her friends and neighbors who are afraid to experience the world outside of their hats. She comes up with an ingenious solution: if given another chance, she will wear a hat as long it is one she makes herself. The people of the City of Hats agree, so Hatless weaves a hat that covers her head and face but does not prevent her from seeing the outside world. She offers to loan the hat to the other inhabitants of the city. One by one, they try it on and are enchanted by the beautiful world around them. Since then, no child has been born wearing a hat. The people celebrate by tossing their old hats in the air. By bravely embracing these values, Hatless improves her own life and the lives of her fellow citizens. Buti’s language is eloquent and clear. She strikes a skilled narrative balance between revealing Hatless’s inner thoughts and letting the story unfold through her interactions with other characters. Careful descriptions are accompanied by beautiful illustrations that reward multiple readings of the book.
