Lynn Higgins' book offers a guided tour through Tavernier's oeuvre, taking into account both its prodigious diversity and its unifying themes. It explores his use of genre and adaptation, his work with actors and his affection for characters, his treatment of France's colonial history, his explorations of the powers of art and the complexities of intergenerational relations, both among fictional characters and within French cinema history.

by Katja Brandis/ Claudia Carls
For the attention of all Seawalker fans: the marine shapeshifters are back, with Volume 2 of this bestselling, shapeshifter series about Tiago, the young tiger shark, and his friends! Tiago is happy because he’s not only been admitted to Blue Reef High School, but also because at last he’s found a friend in Shari, a dolphin shapeshifter. The young tiger shark really needs a friend, because not everyone is happy to have him around. He is constantly clashing with the shady lawyer Lydia Lennox, and he has made himself unpopular by trying to track down the rubbish gangsters who are poisoning the nature reserve near the school. The situation reaches a climax during an anthropological research trip to Miami. When Shari gets into serious difficulties, Tiago as both human and shark takes a huge gamble in order to save her and her dolphin friends. The Seawalker books are published every six months. Previous publication: Seawalkers (1). Dangerous Shapes.

October 2022Katja chinesisch
Eine fremde Erzählung
by Dmitri Prigow, Christiane Körner
Katja wächst als Tochter russisch-britischer Emigranten in Tientsin in China auf. Es sind die 1940er Jahre und später, die Spuren von Krieg und Gewalt überall spürbar. Als junges Mädchen wird sie die Entscheidung treffen, fortan in der Sowjetunion zu leben, und reist mit dem Zug nach Taschkent. Während draußen Schnee und Landschaft vorbeiziehen, wallen in ihr die Erinnerungen an das privilegierte Leben in der ausländischen Konzession auf, an die Wunder und Wunderlichkeiten, die Drachen, Stoffe, Texturen, an das oft rätselhafte Verhalten der Erwachsenen, deren Leben von der Geschichte durchgewirbelt wurde. Und dann ist da noch der Erzähler, der die sanften, auch absonderlichen Bilder jener russischen Kindheit in China immer wieder mit der eigenen im trüben sowjetischen Plattenbau verschaltet, als die Moskauer »Patriarchenteiche« gerade zu »Pionierteichen« geworden waren. In seinem letzten Roman erforscht Dmitri Prigow den fremden Kontinent einer Kindheit und birgt die kindliche Wahrnehmung, Welterfahrung, in wunderbar zarte poetische Bilder.
