Poetry for Future
Unsere Welt lebenswert zu erhalten, ist die wohl größte Herausforderung unserer Zeit. Wir steuern auf den globalen Kollaps zu. Was löst das in uns aus? 45 Autor*innen zeigen: Zwischen Apokalypse und Utopie ist viel Platz für Poesie. Jede Krise setzt kreative Potenziale frei. Das beweist diese Anthologie mit engagierten Beiträgen aus der Poetry-Slam- und Lyrikszene Deutschlands, Österreichs und der Schweiz, die sich allesamt mit der Klimakatastrophe, dem Artensterben und einer ungewissen Zukunft auseinandersetzen. Dystopische, postapokalyptische Szenarien stehen neben optimistischen Visionen einer besseren Zukunft, präzise Analysen wechseln mit schmerzender Satire und poetischen Umdeutungen des Status Quo. So vielfältig die Texte in diesem Band sind, so energisch propagieren sie ein gemeinsames Ziel: die Rettung unserer Lebensgrundlagen.

Girls Against God
A genre-warping, time-travelling horror novel-slash-feminist manifesto for fans of Clarice Lispector and Jeanette Winterson. Welcome to 1990s Norway. White picket fences run in neat rows and Christian conservatism runs deep. But as the Artist considers her work, things start stirring themselves up. In a corner of Oslo a coven of witches begin cooking up some curses. A time-travelling Edvard Munch arrives in town to join a death metal band, closely pursued by the teenaged subject of his painting Puberty, who has murder on her mind. Meanwhile, out deep in the forest, a group of school girls get very lost and things get very strange. And awful things happen in aspic. Jenny Hval's latest novel is a radical fusion of queer feminist theory and experimental horror, and a unique treatise on magic, writing and art. "Strange and lyrical. Hval’s writing is surreal and rich with the grotesque banalities of human existence." —Publishers Weekly "The themes of alienation, queerness, and the unsettling nature of desire align Hval with modern mainstays like Chris Kraus, Ottessa Moshfegh, and Maggie Nelson." —Pitchfork

Reconstructing Tomorrow
The Mitte district of Berlin is marked by numerous reconstructions of buildings, one of which is the newly erected Humboldt Forum. Daniel Theiler has investigated this quarter's cultural history and sociocultural context, while examining the manifestations of hierarchical power politics. This has resulted in a series of works by the artist/architect on the reconstruction of the Berlin Castle, which plays a major role in this volume, entering into a dialogue with interdisciplinary essays on the current debates about reconstruction. This first comprehensive catalogue of the artist's work compiles pieces from the last five years. Featuring a conversation between Natalie Keppler and Daniel Theiler, as well as essays by Ortrun Bargholz, Bertolt Meyer, Constanze Müller, Elke Neumann, Juliane Richter, Johannes Warda, Elisabeth Würzl, and a foreword by Anke Hannemann. DANIEL THEILER (*1981) is a German-Turkish artist and architect. He was a graduate student under Nina Fischer at the University of the Arts Berlin and studied architecture at the TU Berlin, the ETH Zurich, and the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow.
The Story of the Solar System
By the term “Solar System” it is to be understood that an Astronomer, speaking from the standpoint of an inhabitant of the Earth, wishes to refer to that object, the Sun, which is to him the material and visible centre of life and heat and control, and also to those bodies dependent on the Sun which circulate round it at various distances, deriving their light and heat from the Sun, and known as planets and comets. The statement just made may be regarded as a general truth, but as the strictest accuracy on scientific matters is of the utmost importance, a trivial reservation must perhaps be put upon the foregoing broad assertion. There is some reason for thinking that possibly one of the...

The Miles Davis Reader
If you ever needed proof that a magazine can have a love affair with a musician, you're holding it in your hands. For DownBeat, the preeminent publication of the jazz world, Miles Dewey Davis was one of its most cherished subjects. Since it began covering the jazz scene in 1939, no other artist has been more diligently chronicled in its pages than Davis. The beauty of this collection is seeing the development of an artist over time. The reviews of his music go from quietly introducing a new talent to revering, perhaps, the greatest jazz artist of his generation. The feature articles begin with a very young, very polite Davis lamenting, “I've worked so little. I could probably tell you wher...
