In Search Of an Impotent Man
Potent as a dose of Viagra and hilarious as any modern woman's love life, In Search of an Impotent Man is a profoundly irreverent look at one irrepressible woman's search for Mr. Right. Carmen Legg is a thirty-something, flame-haired, BMW-driving temptress who has everything she could possibly want--except peace of mind. She can't sit through a business meeting without men ogling her legs; she can't come home after an eternal workday without fending off advances from her oversexed boyfriend. What she needs, Carmen decides, is a man with more meaningful things on his mind. So, like many contemporary single women, she hopes to find her Prince Charming by placing an ad in the personals, describ...
Kaya Does It Her Way
For Kaya, her needs are big, her hopes are big--her life is big. So big, in fact, that she keeps getting into bigger and bigger trouble! She never stops to think of the consequences. Let's face it - this girl is one big mess! Fortunately, Kaya also has a big heart.
Grabbing the Family Jewels
Where there's a will, there's a way... GRABBING THE FAMILY JEWELS is the terrific new novel from Gaby Hauptmann, author of the international bestseller IN SEARCH OF AN IMPOTENT MAN. With its wonderfully elaborate plot, hilarious misunderstandings, and wicked observations on the absurdities of life, it will delight fans and new readers alike. Anno Adelmann - survivor of two heart attacks - is a wealthy widower, and his four scheming daughters all have designs on his inheritance. Anno, who refers to them variously as hyenas and piranhas, decides to have a bit of fun at their expense. But what starts as a joke soon becomes much more serious, and the family finds itself dealing with kidnapping, blackmail, and even attempted murder. In this witty and irreverent satire, vanity is mocked and bad behaviour deliciously punished as four sisters learn some uncomfortable lessons in sibling rivalry.
A Handful of Manhood
Wealthy, self-made Gunther Schmidt is celebrating his 60th birthday in style: with sixty guests. 'Happy Birthday, old boy!' 'Welcome to the club!' But Gunther doesn't like being sixty. As he casts his eye over the assembled guests, he spots the luscious Linda, girlfriend of the mayor's son -- and just the one to keep him young! So when he goes to bed that night, he resolves to get rid of his boring wife Marion and have Linda instead. But Gunther hasn't bargained for what Linda and Marion think of the matter... ' Un-neurotic, clear-sighted and wickedly irreverent... The perfect antidote to Bridget Jones and Ally McBeal'- The Mail on Sunday

"Superweiber" im neuen deutschen Frauenroman
Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: "Warum lesen Sie Hera Lind, wenn Sie Literaturkritikerin sind? Lesen Sie etwas, das sich zu lesen lohnt! Ich will Ihnen etwas verraten: Ich selber lese nie solche Bücher, wie ich sie schreibe, weil das für mich totgeschlagene Zeit ist." Diese Meinung vertrat Hera Lind Anfang 1998 in einem Interview mit dem Deutschen Allgemeinen Sonntagsblatt. Die Journalistin Angelika Ohland schickte voraus, daß Literaturkritiker Probleme mit der Literatur von Hera Lind hätten und Hera Lind konterte, daß sie schließlich keine Literatur für Literaturkritiker schreibt. Die Kritiker sollten endlich aufhören in ihren Romanen mehr zu sehen, als sie sind - nämlich Unterhaltungsro...
German Literature in a New Century
While the first decade after the fall of the Berlin wall was marked by the challenges of unification and the often difficult process of reconciling East and West German experiences, many Germans expected that the “new century” would achieve “normalization.” The essays in this volume take a closer look at Germany’s new normalcy and argue for a more nuanced picture that considers the ruptures as well as the continuities. Germany’s new generation of writers is more diverse than ever before, and their texts often not only speak of a Germany that is multicultural but also take a more playful attitude toward notions of identity. Written with an eye toward similar and dissimilar developments and traditions on both sides of the Atlantic, this volume balances overviews of significant trends in present-day cultural life with illustrative analyses of individual writers and texts.
