Am an Owl
The rule of law for Tawny owl forbids crossing the borders to no man's land. The young Tawny owl Olmo decides to resist this ancient rule, too much fascinated by the dark secrets of ancient times. Unafraid, he leaves his desolate homeland and embarks on a life-threatening journey. But his decision has serious consequences that will dramatically change the lives of the owl population. ‘A moving story that can hardly be thought more exemplary as a fable of the entanglement of people of our time. I hope this book is widely read.’ (Hans Bemmann, author of ‘The Stone and the Flute’ ) ‘Am an Owl’ is published for the first time in the original language. A relentless system regulates th...
Dreamers of Earth and Aether
Set in landscapes, cities and rooms, these very short prose portraits direct the reader’s gaze towards something encompassing, far beyond what the narratives recount. The voices of an artist, a dying soldier, a scholar, a child, an employee, a monk and a young girl speak. Simultaneously surreal and existentialistic, their psyches traverse the chasm between the 20th and 21st century, leaving a poetic trail. The thoughts of each person characterized evoke an alternate imaginary space, where waking life and the dreamed can no longer be differentiated. The narratives vibrate as the visible and the invisible intertwine, disrupting the certainty of a single plane of existence.
The Lost Domain
Since time immemorial, the Tawny owls have formed the privileged aristocratic class among the nocturnal birds, far superior to the Barn owls and Little owls. Yoller, the son of the leader of a Tawny owl dynasty, also grew up with this belief. However, when the impetuous young Tawny owl is attacked by buzzards during a messenger mission to remote forest areas, his aristocratic origins do not help him one bit. Yoller is saved from certain death by the owl May Blossom at the last minute. Yoller and his lifesaving heroine fall in love, but conflicting life plans separate them again. Thus Yoller follows his intended purpose as a Tawny owl and returns to his homeland, where he finds himself confro...
Fatal Tango
In the beginning, Giulietta wants only to get closer to the music, to experience how the rhythm of the tango will move her ballet dancer's body. But then she meets Dami n, the Argentinean dancer whose energy and power captivate her from the moment she first sees him dance. They embark upon a torrid affair, in which their passion for one another is matched only by their passion for the dance. Yet when Dami n begins sabotaging his own performance with bizarre, improvised choreography, Giulietta can no longer ignore the signs that something is terribly wrong. When Dami n commits a shocking crime and flees Berlin, Giulietta gives chase. She follows him to Buenos Aires, plunging deep into the world of Argentinean tango and the unspeakable horrors of the country's brutal past. Only through her lover's emblematic dancing style will she uncover the mystery of Dami n's unspeakable past and the terrifying truth that connects it with her own.
The Living Politics of Self-Help Movements in East Asia
This collection elucidates the complexity of living politics in the 21st century, considering how self-help groups draw on shared regional traditions, and how they adapt their actions to the diverse formal political environments in which they operate. It considers the nexus between ideas and action in a world where the conventional ‘right-left’ divide has a decreasing hold on the political imagination. Examining grassroots self-help actions as responses to everyday life problems, it argues that whilst action may be initiated by encounters with ideas that come into the community from outside, often the flow of cause and effect works in the opposite direction. Focusing on countries both politically dynamic and with long-standing historical and cultural connections - China (including Inner Mongolia), Japan, Taiwan and Korea – this book fills a significant gap in the literature on social movements, demonstrating that survival itself is a political act.

The Devil and Bobby Hull
An award-winning writer sets the record straight on hockey's forgotten golden boy—Bobby Hull In his prime, few could dispute Bobby Hull's athletic brilliance—the first to have five 50-goal seasons, the highest scorer on the 1976 Canada Cup team, the first to use the slapshot as a scoring weapon, and the first hockey player to sign a million-dollar contract. With his body-builder torso, and his 100 mph volleys across a rink, the world of hockey glory was his to lose. And he did. With his publicized marital troubles and his defection from the NHL to the WHA, Hull's star began to fall, leaving him broke and in exile from the game. In The Devil and Bobby Hull, this once great hockey player a...
