The Children's Home

Engel's England
England, says Matthew Engel, is the most complicated place in the world. And, as he travels through each of the historic English counties, he discovers that's just the start of it. Every county is fascinating, the product of a millennium or more of history: still a unique slice of a nation that has not quite lost its ancient diversity. He finds the well-dressers of Derbyshire and the pyromaniacs of Sussex; the Hindus and huntsmen of Leicestershire; the goddess-worshippers of Somerset. He tracks down the real Lancashire, hedonistic Essex, and the most mysterious house in Middlesex. In Durham he goes straight from choral evensong to the dog track. As he seeks out the essence of each county - from Yorkshire's broad acres to the microdot of Rutland - Engel always finds the unexpected . Engel's England is a totally original look at a confused country: a guidebook for people who don't think they need a guidebook. It is always quirky, sometimes poignant and often extremely funny.

Das Fremde Meer
Dieses Buch ist eine Reise: in die Salpȇtrière, die Pariser Psychiatrie, in der Sigmund Freud Schüler bei Charcot war; in den Winterwald, aus dem eine gelangweilte Prinzessin einen Prinzen retten will; in die Wechselstadt, in der ganze Häuser als »Mobilien« durch die Stadt wandern; in die Geisterfabrik, wo Seelenfragmente zu Spiritografien verarbeitet werden... Zehn Kapitel, zehn mal die Geschichte von Marie und Jan. Marie gehört zu den Menschen, die glauben, dass Katastrophen immer nur die treffen, die nicht auf sie vorbereitet sind. Sie rechnet darum stets mit dem Schlimmsten - und behält recht: Sie ist eine Außenseiterin, ängstlich, verzweifelt, meist stumm und voller Sehnsüchte. Womit sie nicht rechnet? Gerettet zu werden, von Jan, der so anders als sie selbst scheint. Von ihm fühlt Marie sich gefunden. Doch ganz traut sie ihrem Glück nicht, denn sie weiß: »man kann alles trennen, teilen und spalten, sogar ein Atom«. Was haben Marie und ihre Geschichten dem Schicksal entgegen zu setzen? Kann die Literatur ein Leben retten? Kann sie erzählen, wofür es keine Worte gibt?
