        Wake Me Up at 9 AM

        by A Yi

        The title comes from a Borges interview, in which Borges planned to write a short story entitled Wake Me Up At 9 AM but he didn’t write it at last. A Yi borrowed this title. In A Yi’s story, looped in the night of his birthday, Hong Yang asks his wife Jin Yan to wake him up at nine AM the next morning, but he doesn’t wake up any longer. The book recalls how Hong Yang, an illiteracy who has been simply considered as an outlaw, becomes well known in the town by taking advantage of his violence and necessary schemes, with the narrative of a hurried and perfunctory funeral. Love, belief, brotherhood and affection have nothing to do with him. The novel makes a scroll-type portrayal of the vanishing village and people living in the village by virtue of him.

        Von Männern und ihren Katzen

        Die größten Katzenliebhaber der Geschichte

        by Sam Kalda, Kirsten Riesselmann

        Der beste Freund des Mannes ist der Hund. Von wegen! In seinem stilsicher wie liebevoll illustrierten Buch widmet sich Sam Kalda den großen »Katzenmännern« der Geschichte und beweist, dass den bedeutendsten Denkern, Erfindern, Künstlern und Schriftstellern unserer Zeit keineswegs imposante Vierbeiner beiseite standen, sondern filigrane Katzengeschöpfe. Hemingway, der für seinen Jagdinstinkt – in tierischen wie in libidinösen Gefilden – und seinen exzessiven Alkoholkonsum berüchtigt war, legte eine erstaunliche Zuneigung zu Katzen an den Tag, zärtlich nannte er sie seine »Schnurr-Fabriken«. Nikola Tesla wurde angeblich zum Nachdenken über Elektrizität inspiriert, als er seine Katze Macak streichelte und einen Schlag abbekam. Und als fanatischster Katzenliebhaber wird vermutlich Karl Lagerfeld in die Geschichte eingehen, dessen weißes Siamkätzchen Choupette nicht nur für Chanel modelt, sondern auch einen Twitter-Account, zwei Nannys und eigenes Designergeschirr besitzt. Von Männern und ihren Katzen ist eine längst überfällige und charmante Hommage an die größten Katzenliebhaber aller Zeiten.

        Round our way

        Sam Hanna's visual legacy

        by Heather Nicholson

        Sam Hanna (1903-96), a pioneering filmmaker from Burnley, Lancashire, was dubbed the 'Lowry of filmmaking' by BBC broadcaster Brian Redhead in the 1980s. The well-meant label stuck, even though it misses the variety of Hanna's remarkable output. Hanna's intimate glimpses into the lives of strangers enable us to imagine the possible stories that lie behind the images. Away from mid-century exponents of documentary filmmaking and photography, Hanna shows us humanity and a microcosm of a world in change, where his subjects are caught up in issues far beyond their grasp that we, as onlookers years later, encounter and see afresh. Written and curated by historian Heather Norris Nicholson, Round our way combines stills, essays and archive photography to document Hanna's unique visual record on film, particularly in northern England, but also further afield, during decades of profound change.

        In the company of wolves

        Werewolves, wolves and wild children

        by Sam George, Bill Hughes

        In the company of wolves presents further research from the Open Graves, Open Minds Project. It connects together innovative research from a variety of perspectives on the cultural significance of wolves, wild children and werewolves as portrayed in different media and genres. We begin with the wolf itself as it has been interpreted as a cultural symbol and how it figures in contemporary debates about wilderness and nature. Alongside this, we consider eighteenth-century debates about wild children ­- often thought to have been raised by wolves and other animals - and their role in key questions about the origins of language and society. The collection continues with essays on werewolves and other shapeshifters as depicted in folk tales, literature, film and TV, concluding with the transition from animal to human in contemporary art, poetry and fashion.
