View Rights PortalCity of Betrayals and Shadows (Eisenheim Dilogy, Vol. 1)Flora is devastated when she learns that her soul has been living a double life at night time for quite a while, in a secret town called Eisenheim. From now on, she will never be able to sleep again without her mind wandering in this drab shadow world. As if that were not enough, her soul has apparently stolen the white lion, a powerful alchemical stone, which the rulers of the shadow world are not alone in coveting. In the real world, Flora is now no longer secure from the peril in Eisenheim, and one thing is clear: she can’t trust anyone, not even Marian, who suddenly starts appearing in both worlds, and whose kisses seem to have rather more familiar taste than she likes. As a princess in this shadowy world, Flora is deeply concerned. Is she responsible for the destruction of the city? Eisenheim’s stone of destiny lies hidden deep within the ground and it is calling to her; Flora soon realises that her fate and that of the stone are linked; it is only when she has solved the mystery of their common origin that she will be able to save Eisenheim and rejoin Marian, the boy she loves.Sparkling with originality, excitement and tempo - with a series of astonishing twists and a brilliant eye for detail, Mechthild Gläser tells her tale about Flora and Marian wonderfully entertaining, a complex dilogy that is filled with unforgettable figures.

How do you imagine the Arabs before Islam? People who drink alcohol, milk goats, and fight each other for trivial reasons? Or perhaps you imagine them ignorant in an environment of darkness and sand? In this short story collection, Ahmad Lufti presents a fresh picture of the Arabian Peninsula before Islam, its legends and poets, its kings and its oral traditions. Inspired by the storytelling form of Scheherazade in “One Thousand and One Nights”—in which one narrator tells a story about another narrator, and another—as well as traditional Arab tales, Lufti’s stories explore and exalt Arab history and culture as well as larger themes of love, weakness, and power. Commentary from the Author: I am trying to reintroduce prose in Arab stories, as an attempt to praise authors whose books were highly underestimated. These works of art were deeply criticized for focusing on the pre-Islamic era or for adopting a classical rigid style. It is crucial to revive Arab stories, this pristine and rich field that would never fail to exist, even if all authors were to perish. This has proven of importance in modern stories, which are the reflection of the contemporary human. How can we refute modern stereotypes, if Arab literature is absent from today’s books?

Berückend schön, unvorstellbar grausam. Boston in der Vorweihnachtszeit 1990: Lawrence, ein melancholischer, verletzlicher Buchverkäufer, der vergeblich versucht, über die Trennung von seinem Liebhaber hinweg zu kommen, ahnt nicht, daß die sehr attraktive junge Frau, die in sein Haus zieht, ein mächtiger Sukkubus ist – eine Kreatur des Bösen, die ihre Erscheinung wechselt und menschliche Seelen aufsaugt.

"Ein Roman? Nicht genug. Ein Buch, das über die Ufer tritt und mitreißt, was Formen und Inhalte zu bieten imstande sind. Der Erzähler heißt Ijon Tichy. Die Leser der »Sterntagebücher« erinnern sich dieses kosmischen Münchhausen; hier nimmt er seine Arbeit wieder auf: als Forscher, Berichterstatter, Reisender im Irdischen und Außerirdischen. Tichys Erlebnisse und Beobachtungen in Kurdland, in den Grenzgebieten und in Losannien faßt das Kapitel »Lokaltermin« zusammen. Insbesondere wird von der Ethikosphäre in Losannien berichtet, deren Einführung durch die nicht mehr zu kontrollierende Zunahme von Gewalttaten unvermeidbar geworden war. Und angesichts dieser ethifizierten Welt erörtert Tichy die Frage, ob ein solch frevelfreier Zustand Auswirkungen auf die Unsterblichkeit haben könnte."
