Religious Comedy Fiction

Paige McAllister needs to do something drastic. Her boyfriend can't even commit to living in the same country, her promised promotion is dead on arrival, and the simultaneous loss of her brother and her dream of being a concert violinist has kept her playing life safe and predictable for six years. A moment of temporary insanity finds her leaving her life in Chicago to move to Sydney, Australia. There she finds herself, against many of her convictions, as a logistics planner for one of Australia's biggest churches and on a collision course with her boss' son.

My Warped Italian Catholic Childhood is a comedic throwback to the '50s era. Little Rosemarie is a misplaced ward of the times. Her attempt to adapt to the traditions of her culture, coupled with the dogma of the Catholic church, is overwhelming. Because the tale is narrated through the eyes of an innocent child; her recollections are even funnier and engaging. Little Rosemarie trudges through her daily life questioning her puzzling existence. Guilt, sin, the devil, the lack of sex education, and the unmerciful instruction of The Sisters Of Mercy befuddle the sprite.

Sarah Bosetti hat einen Weg gefunden, die Demokratie zu retten: mit Poesie gegen Populismus! Wohin man schaut: Weltuntergang. Doch Klimawandel, Krieg und Krisen wären zu meistern, wenn die Menschen ihnen mit ehrlicher Vernunft begegnen würden. Im Kampf gegen Fake News, Diskriminierung und Diskursverschiebung nimmt Sarah Bosetti sich einige der schönsten, schlimmsten oder absurdesten populistischen Aussagen bekannter Persönlichkeiten vor – von Alice Schwarzer über Olaf Scholz bis Wladimir Putin – und beantwortet sie mit klugen, bissigen und witzigen Gedichten.
