Extra Lemon!
'The sales slogan was 'Make way for the Austin Freeway'. Car buyers did more than that. 'They gave it the widest berth possible.''You may not recall the Falcon EA. But Ford certainly does. It had to recall tens ofthousands of them.''During 27 years, the Trabant evolved from a primitive, badly built deathtrap into aprimitive, badly built deathtrap with a 12-volt electrical system.'In this laugh out-loud sequel to the bestselling LEMON!, Tony Davis inducts 65 more cars into his Motoring Hall of Shame.Read about cars like the East German Trabant, with its cotton-reinforced body; or the dafter-than-you'd-believe-possible Lightburn Zeta Sports, which the brochure bizarrely dubbed a 'super car' (the only thing it could leap in a single bound was out of gear). There's the appalling Piazza, the ridiculously hyped Tucker 48 and the explosive Ford Pinto: all shining examples of the hair-brained, the unsightly, the excruciatingly dull and the magnificently unsuccessful. EXTRA LEMON will make you wince, groan and avert your eyes - once you've stopped laughing.More heroic failures of motoring by the author of the bestselling LEMON!

Liebe deine Toten
Dieser Band enthält eine Sammlung von 10 unglaublichen Grusel-, Horror- und Kriminalgeschichten. Diese handeln zum Beispiel vom Treffen vierer Gangster, die ihren alten Kumpel Kiff für das nächste krumme Dinge anheuern wollen. Doch Kiff macht sich nichts mehr aus jeglichem materiellen Besitz - eine Einstellung zum Leben, die durchaus gerechtfertigt ist, wenn man der Beschützer der Welt ist. ... oder vom wahnsinnigen Zauberer, der für sein nächstes Ritual unbedingt Kindergedärm braucht - und wie sich die "Besorgung" unerwartet schwierig gestaltet. ... oder von der Dokumentation des neuen Modetrends namens Reducing - bei dem sich die Opfer, also die Klienten, Körperteile ganz abschneiden lassen. Ebenso dürfen Zombies aus Waldseen, heimtückische Mörder und seltsame Maschinen nicht fehlen. Einige dieser Geschichten haben es gar auf die Leinwand geschafft. Sie wurden als No-Budget- und Trash-Movies auf verschiedenen Veranstaltungen bzw. Festivals gezeigt. Besonderer Dank gilt Rainer van Delken und Dirk Geil.
Culture from the Slums
Culture from the Slums explores the history of punk rock in East and West Germany during the 1970s and 1980s.

For young Germans at the time, punk appealed to those gravitating towards cultural experimentation rooted in notions of authenticity-endeavors considered to be more 'real' and 'genuine.' Adopting musical subculture from abroad and rearticulating the genre locally, punk gave individuals uncomfortable with their societies the opportunity to create alternative worlds. Examining how youths mobilized music to build alternative communities and identities...
