Um 1968 tingeln Lukas und Harry als Zwei-Mann-Band durch die deutsche Provinz, covern Beatles, Kinks und Donovan und denken: Besser geht's nicht. Bis Lukas eines Nachts im Radio Leonard Cohens "Suzanne" hört und sich weder Titel noch Interpret merken kann. Die kokette Gitte und die erfahrene Julia werden ihm auf der Suche nach dieser einen lebensverändernden Platte behilflich sein. Zehn Jahre später macht Lukas sich auf nach Nirgendwo, nur mit Cohens Gedichten im Gepäck.

On Zulema's fourth date with the man who is now her husband, they created a "Life List" of adventures they would share together, from skydiving to luxurious trips around the world, and as wine collectors, traveling the wine regions to meet their favorite producers. Wildly successful and in love, Zulema was living a fairy tale. But, two years into their marriage, the Life List took on a shocking urgency when she was diagnosed with sarcoma, an exceedingly rare and incurable form of cancer, along with a host of other complex and mysterious medical conditions.

The year is 1957. Four-year-old Paul Ecke sits timidly at a foreign kitchen table, eating the first inferior meal of many in a foster home. Longing for his beloved mother, he sees her only on short weekend visits that grow more infrequent over time, as she tries unsuccessfully to hide a nervous breakdown along with yet another growing pregnancy. Despite - or perhaps because of - the emotional angst, complicated sexual identity issues, and deep loss he experiences, Paul cultivates a profound gift of creative genius.

Lucelle Raad is an artist whose original paintings and prints decorate countless walls of homes in the United States and Europe, as well as in other locations throughout the world. The majority of her subjects are children, as well they should be, for children are the most innocent, unassuming people there are to paint. She wasn’t always an artist, however. In fact, she never intended to be anything but a happy, well-adjusted adult - the goal of all children, whether they realize it or not. How she came to be an artist is quite another story altogether.

På natten den sista november 2005 somnade artisten, skådespelaren och småbarnspappan Micke "Svullo" Dubois för allra sista gången. Han tog sitt liv i ett cykelförråd - bara 46 år gammal. Ångesten blev till sist för svår. I nästan tio år var Gitte Nilsson sambo med Micke Dubois. Tillsammans har de tre barn. Gitte kände varenda skrymsle av Mickes hemlighet med depressionerna, ångesten och de förtvivlade ropen på hjälp. Tillsammans med journalisten Niklas Bodell berättar Gitte om glädjen, vreden och vanmakten. Om livet och lidandet med Den Stora Kärleken. Om människan Micke Dubois.

Les Goolrick étaient des princes. Et tout le monde voulait leur ressembler. C'étaient les années 50, les femmes se faisaient des coiffures sophistiquées, elles portaient des robes de taffetas ou de soie, des gants et des chapeaux, et elles avaient de l'esprit. Les hommes préparaient des cocktails, des Gimlet, des Manhattan, des Gibson, des Singapore Sling, c'était la seule chose qu'ils prenaient au sérieux. Dans cette petite ville de Virginie, on avait vraiment de la classe, d'ailleurs on trouvait son style en lisant le New Yorker.

The problem is that nobody pictures a beastly memoir about Malibu. Everyone wants to live in Malibu, but I found that people often wouldn’t stay there for long. Friends would suddenly leave without a goodbye, and it was as if the wind had blown them away. Sometimes, the ocean gales were almost strong enough to sweep people off their feet. High costs of living and eccentric movie personalities added to the sense of instability.

Following Once Were Warriors, Alan Duff wrote Maori: The Crisis and the Challenge. His controversial comments shook the country. A quarter of a century later, New Zealand and Maoridom are in a very different place. And so is Alan - he has published many more books, had two films made of his works, founded the Duffy Books in Homes literacy programme and endured 'some less inspiring moments, including bankruptcy'.

In this remarkable autobiography, Joshua Holmes paints a stellar picture. He recounts a life of trial, accomplishment, survival, and blessing. Introspective, informative, fast-paced, and filled with irony, Painting the Whole Picture is a harrowing tale you won’t want to put down.

Victor von Bülow (alias LORIOT) und Gregor von Rezzori - bei allen Unterschieden in Herkunft und Lebenslauf erweisen sich diese zwei Großmeister des Humors als verwandte Geister: beide arbeiteten erfolgreich als Zeichner, Schauspieler und Autoren; ihre Werke besitzen feinsinnige Komik und geschliffene Eloquenz. Sprachliche Eleganz gilt geradezu als ihr Markenzeichen. Dies zeigt sich auch wieder in den Gesprächen, die Hellmuth Karasek in der Fernsehsendung SPIEGEL TV Thema in den 90er Jahren mit ihnen führte. Ein großartiges Dokument!

Unlike most artists, Van Gogh developed very slowly, beginning with work as an art dealer that exposed him to many great works. He undertook this work for several years, after which he spent time as a missionary for the Dutch Reformed Church. Thereafter, he drifted for several years before returning home to his parents’ house, where he took up painting, largely self-taught with books on anatomy and painting. His great works all date from the later years of his life.

Am 28. Februar 1986 wird der schwedische Premierminister Olof Palme in Stockholm auf offener Straße erschossen.

È l'alba del XVI secolo. L'Italia è divisa in una miriade di regni litigiosi e incapaci di opporsi alle mire delle grandi potenze. Tra quelle corti soggette ai capricci della guerra si aggira un personaggio bizzarro e affascinante, che sembra uscito dalla penna di uno scrittore. È un pittore e scultore che come nessun altro riesce a catturare l'anima di ciò che raffigura. È un inventore in grado di concepire monumenti di prodigiosa bellezza, architetture così ardite da superare ogni immaginazione, macchine belliche che sembrano provenire da un futuro lontano.

Born in Calcutta in 1815, she married and settled down to the life of a typical Victorian colonial matron; but, beneath this conventional exterior, she was increasingly interested in photography. After moving to England, Cameron acquired her first camera in 1863, ultimately emerging as the leading portrait photographer of the Victorian art world.
