        Schlaf in tödlicher Ruh

        Weihnachtliche Kriminalgeschichten

        by Carolin Bunk, Hans Sarkowicz

        Weihnachten ist die Zeit des Friedens, der Harmonie und des familiären Glücks. Kann sein, muß aber nicht. Denn das Verbrechen macht nie Pause, auch nicht am Heiligen Abend. Welche beängstigenden Abgründe sich gerade beim Fest der Liebe auftun können, ahnen wir nur. Krimiautoren dagegen machen daraus spannende Geschichten. Dann verwandelt sich die o so fröhliche Weihnachtszeit in einen Albtraum. Also: Vorsicht ist geboten, gerade wenn die Glocken am süßesten klingen und die Engelchöre die „Stille Nacht“ besingen. Mit Texten von Dorothy L. Sayers, Ruth Rendell, Dan Brown, Ingrid Noll, Patricia Highsmith, u. a.

        Journey in Trumplandia: The Rise of Populism in America

        by Tiberiu Dianu

        The book is a collection of essays about the transformation of America, which has turned from a united nation to one more divided than ever. Some pundits predict that, if things don’t change, another civil war could occur. Have we reached a point of no return? Hopefully, America is mature enough to learn from its mistakes and avoid further scars along its evolving history. "Trumplandia is a welcome addition toward understanding current events, Washington’s international policy, and the present American society; a society polarized and divided as it has not been since the Civil War.” NICHOLAS DIMA, Ph.D., Adjunct Professor and Research Associate, Nelson Institute, James Madison University, Virginia. "The book is fascinating. It provides background to, and insights into [the] current and past political history as well as offering a personal view... of the country and society. Presented in thematic form in chapters and sections, the insights offered provide a suggestive radiography...” Dr. DENNIS DELETANT, OBE, School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University, Washington DC. "There has been this backsliding in... what a truly functioning rule-of-law state is, that has proper separation of co-equal powers, which, if you don’t keep working on that, you backslide. And I am even worried about that here, in the United States right now, about backsliding.” OBIE MOORE, Esq., OLM Advisors LLC, Washington DC “Indeed, Trumplandia should be a welcome addition to any scholar, student or layman’s library, especially in its international edition. If anyone loses sleep over its challenging assertions, then it will have been well worth it.” ERNESTO MORALES HIZON, Ph.D. Candidate in American and Comparative Politics at Claremont Graduate University, Member, Integrated Bar of the Philippines ABOUT THE AUTHOR: TIBERIU DIANU has practiced law in Romania (as a corporate lawyer, judge, senior counselor at the Ministry of Justice, university professor and senior legal researcher), and in the United States (as a legal expert for the judiciary). He published several books and a host of articles in law, politics, and post-communist societies. Tiberiu currently lives and works in Washington, DC.

        The King of Trash

        by Donald Willerton

        The plague of homelessness runs through it like a pulsing vein. There is murder―and bodies galore. There is unhesitating genocide. There is an escape from certain death that will haunt you.And yet The King of Trash is a story of tenderness, of ethical struggle, and of deeply bonded humanity.In his latest novel―and his first to move beyond the highly successful Mogi Franklin middle-reader mysteries―author Don Willerton intertwines modern-day themes of transcendent importance through a unique and intriguing tale of mystery, adventure, and courage.Early readers have sometimes had nightmares, but yet The King of Trash is ultimately redeemed by its heart. It begins with a newspaper reporter setting out to interview a former school mate who's now become one of the world greatest scientists―and one of its richest men. Before long, though, we are enmeshed in a web of awful and expedient “facts” building to a twenty-first-century morality tale in which no one can escape the hard and bitter decisions of the “real” world. And yet at the end, we learn, is the one central truth, the only remnant left to sustain Willerton's fascinating and vivid characters―and all the rest of us alive on Earth as well.

        It was always love

        by Hotel, Nikola

        She’s had enough of men, but he can’t get enough of her...   Away. Just get out of here. That's all Aubree thinks about when she gets kicked out of college after a party. She buys an incredibly old car, throws the few things she owns into the trunk and flees to her best friend Ivy in New Hampshire.    There, all she wants is to pull the blanket over her head and think of nothing else. Not about that night. Not about the party. And most of all, not that picture that's been circulating on the Internet ever since. But it doesn't work. Because instead of her friend, she meets Noah, Ivy's stepbrother. With his impulsive but surprisingly sensitive nature, Noah evokes feelings in her that she doesn't need right now. And which, nevertheless, sweep her away like a storm...     Second volume of a romantic and exciting dilogy with 20 lavishly illustrated hand-lettered pages by Carolin Magunia.

        The Brotherhood of the Screaming Abyss

        My Life with Terence McKenna

        by Dennis McKenna

        Tracing the McKenna brothers’ childhood in western Colorado during the 1950s and ’60s, Dennis chronicles their adolescent adventures and formative encounters with mind-altering substances, along with the people and ideas that shaped them both. Dennis, now world-renowned for this ethnobotanical work, describes his early interests in cosmology and astrology, his sometimes rocky relationship with his older brother, how their paths diverged later in life, and his mother’s and Terence’s battles with cancer. In his account of what has become known as “The Experiment at La Chorrera”—which Terence documented in his own 1989 book, True Hallucinations— Dennis describes visions of merging mushroom and human DNA, the brothers’ predictions for the future, and their evolving ideas about society and consciousness. In this updated edition, Dennis also reflects on scientific revelations, climate change, and the social and political crises of our time.

        Italienische Kriminalgeschichten

        by Carolin Bunk, Hans Sarkowicz

        Die Sonne Italiens wirft auch lange Schatten. Und in diesem Halbdunkel tummeln sich Gestalten, die jede Reise in einen Höllentrip verwandeln können. Die weltweit tätige Mafia ist dabei nicht die einzige Verbrecherorganisation, die Angst und Schrecken verbreitet. Kein Wunder also, daß in Italien besonders viele Schriftsteller über Täter und ihre bedauernswerten Opfer schreiben. Sie berichten von der Mafia, von dem kleinen Mord zwischendurch und von raffinierten Betrügereien. Mit Texten von Andrea Camilleri, Luigi Malerba, Italo Calvino, Alberto Moravia, Mario Adorf u. v. a.

        Die spannendsten Kriminalgeschichten für kalte Tage

        by Carolin Bunk, Hans Sarkowicz

        Wenn es die Temperaturen fallen und die Nächte länger werden, wird es gefährlich, dann blüht das Verbrechen. Da gehen Morde leichter von der Hand als in brütender Hitze. Für Krimiautoren ist der Winter die ergiebigste Jahreszeit. Denn hinter jedem gemütlich erleuchteten Fenster können familiäre Dramen, blutige Konkurrenzkämpfe und tödliche Irrtümer lauern. Draußen sieht es nicht anders aus. Die frostige Natur bietet keinen Schutz. Sie scheint sich im Winter mit dem Bösen verbündet zu haben. Wehe, wenn es im Krimi schneit… Mit Texten von Henning Mankell, Val McDermid, Tatjana Kruse, Viktor Arnar Ingólfsson u. v. a.

        Tödliches Eis

        Kriminalgeschichten aus Skandinavien

        by Carolin Bunk, Hans Sarkowicz

        Mord, das wissen die Krimiexperten, ist im Norden Europas eine besondere Kunst. Alle Mittel sind recht, um langwierige Beziehungsdramen abzukürzen oder den Austausch von Wertgegenständen zu beschleunigen. Das jedenfalls behaupten die skandinavischen Krimiautoren, die bei der Erfindung von raffinierten Todesarten kaum zu schlagen sind. Und noch etwas gehört zu den Spezialitäten ihrer Erzählungen: Es ist selten etwas wirklich so, wie es auf den ersten Blick erscheint. Mit Texten von Henning Mankell, Åke Edwardson, Håkan Nesser, Arne Dahl, Kim Småge u.v.a. Zu hören im Oktober 2008 im Literaturkanal des ICE, zu lesen im insel taschenbuch. Ab November 2008 als Hörbuch im Hörverlag erhältlich.
