Mehr Kopf als Tuch
Wie junge Musliminnen in Österreich und Deutschland ihre Umwelt erleben Zahlreiche Bücher werden über muslimische Frauen verfasst, wenige von ihnen. Hier schreiben nun Musliminnen aus Österreich und Deutschland über verschiedene Themen, die sie beschäftigen: über Heimat und Karriere, über Alltagsrassismus und Diskriminierungserfahrungen bis hin zu Vielfalt und Integration. Die Sammlung von gesellschaftskritischen Analysen und persönlichen Geschichten gewährt einen Einblick in die Lebenswelten engagierter Musliminnen und gibt auch die kritischen weiblichen Töne der muslimischen Community wieder, die nicht so oft gehört werden. So macht dieses Buch die Vielfalt der muslimischen Frauen sichtbar, die wiederum ein Stück weit zum Dialog und zur Versachlichung beitragen in einem emotionsgeladenen Diskurs um das Thema Islam.

Since Yesterday
Since Yesterday is Frederick Lewis Allen's sequel to Only Yesterday. Only Yesterday is an informative and popular tell-all history book about American life in the 1920s. Since Yesterday turns this same witty and empathetic energy towards the Great Depression and 1930s America. Excerpt: "Ever since, in Only Yesterday, I tried to tell the story of life in the United States during the nineteen-twenties I have had it in the back of my mind that someday I might make a similar attempt for the nineteen-thirties. I began work on the project late in 1938 and had it three-quarters done by the latter part of the summer of 1939, though I did not yet know how the story would end."

The Apple That Astonished Paris
Bruce Weber in the New York Times called Billy Collins “the most popular poet in America.” He is the author of many books of poetry, including, most recently, The Rain in Portugal: Poems. In 1988 the University of Arkansas Press published Billy Collins’s The Apple That Astonished Paris, his “first real book of poems,” as he describes it in a new, delightful preface written expressly for this new printing to help celebrate both the Press’s twenty-fifth anniversary and this book, one of the Press’s all-time best sellers. In his usual witty and dry style, Collins writes, “I gathered together what I considered my best poems and threw them in the mail.” After “what seemed like...
The Gamal
Winner of the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature 'A gritty, modern Romeo and Juliet told by a compelling and original voice' Independent 'He is a tremendous storyteller ... a cracking debut, as moving as it is entertaining' New York Times _____________________ Charlie has a story to tell, about his best friends Sinéad and James and the bad things that happened. But he can't tell it yet, at least not 'til he's worked out where the beginning is. Because is the beginning long ago when Sinéad first spoke up for him after Charlie got in trouble at school for the millionth time? Or was it later, when Sinéad and James followed the music and found each other? Or was it later still on that terrible night when something unspeakable happened and someone chose to turn a blind eye? This is the story of the dark heart of an Irish village, of how daring to be different can be dangerous and how there is nothing a person will not do for love. This is the story of the Gamal.
